BUSINESS Business Overview We are a global biotech company working to unlock the potential of cell and gene therapies (“CGTs”) in an affordable and accessible format. CGTs can be centered on autologous (using the patient’s own cells) or allogenic (using master banked donor cells) and are part of a class of medicines referred to as advanced therapy medicinal products (“ATMPs”). We are mostly focused on autologous therapies that can be manufactured under processes and systems that are developed for each therapy using a closed and automated approach that is validated for compliant production near the patient for treatment of the patient at the point of care (“POCare”). This approach has the potential to overcome the limitations of traditional commercial manufacturing methods that do not translate well to commercial production of advanced therapies due to their cost prohibitive nature and complex logistics to deliver such treatments to patients (ultimately limiting the number of patients that can have access to, or can afford, these therapies). Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products and POCare Overview ATMP means one of any of the following medicinal products that are developed and commercialized for human use: ● ● ● A somatic cell therapy medicinal product (“STMP”) that contains cells or tissues that have been manipulated to change their biological characteristics or cells or tissues not intended to be used for the same essential functions in the body; A tissue engineered product (“TEP”) that contains cells or tissues that have been modified so that they can be used to repair, regenerate, or replace human tissue; or A gene therapy medicinal product (“GTMP”) that engineers genes that lead to a therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic effect and, in many cases, work by inserting “recombinant” genes into the body, usually to treat a variety of diseases, including genetic disorders, cancer, or long-term diseases. In this case, a recombinant gene is a stretch of DNA that is created in the laboratory, bringing together DNA from different sources. It is important to note that, although STMPs and GTMPs currently dominate the market, in order to access the market potential and trends in the future, other cell products are likely to be essential in all of these categories. We believe that autologous therapies represent a substantial segment of the ATMP market. Autologous therapies are produced from a patient’s own cells versus allogeneic therapies that are mass-cultivated from donor cells via the construction of master and working cell banks and are then produced on a large scale. Developers and manufacturers of ATMPs (both autologous and allogeneic) currently rely heavily on production using traditional centralized supply chains and manufacturing sites. CGTs are costly and complex to produce. We also refer to CGTs as “living drugs” since they are based on maintaining the cell’s vitality. Therefore, there is no possibility to sterilize the products, since such a process involves killing any living organism. Many of these therapies require sourcing of the patient’s cells, engineering them in a sterile environment and then transplanting them back to the patient (so-called “autologous” CGT). This presents multiple logistic challenges as each patient requires their own production batch, and the current processes involve complex laboratory-based types of manipulations requiring highly trained lab technicians. We are leveraging a unique approach to therapy production using our POCare Platform to potentially overcome some of the development and supply chain challenges of affordably bringing CGT to patients. 5 To achieve these goals, we have developed a collaborative worldwide network of research institutes and hospitals who are engaged in the POCare model (“POCare Network”), and a pipeline of licensed POCare advanced therapies that can be processed and produced under such closed and automated processes and systems (“POCare Therapies”). We are developing our pipeline of advanced therapies and with the goal of entering into out-licensing agreements for these therapies. We believe that, for this industry to prosper, it must be based on utilizing a standardized platform. Cellular therapies, though defined as drug products, conceptually differ from other drug modalities. The way these drug products are produced is inherently different from producing existing drugs. They are based on reprogramming of cells sourced from the patient or from a donor. They are not composed of purchased chemical components such as typical pharmaceuticals, nor are they harvested in large quantities from genetically engineered cell lines and then sterilized such as typical biotech products. These “living drug” products are, in most cases, produced per patient individually in a highly sterile and controlled environment, and their efficacy is optimized when administered a short time following production as fresh product. To advance the execution of our goal of bringing such therapies to market, we have designed and built our POCare Platform - a scalable infrastructure of technology and services that ensures a central quality system, replicability and standardization of infrastructure and equipment, and centralized monitoring and data management. The platform is constructed on POCare Centers that serve as hubs that implement locally our POCare quality system, Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”), training procedures, quality control testing and incoming supply of materials and oversee the actual production in the Orgenesis Mobile Processing Units & Labs (“OMPULs”). The POCare Platform is operated by Morgenesis, an Orgenesis subsidiary (see below). This platform is utilized by other parties, such as biotech companies and hospitals for the supply of their products. Morgenesis services include adapting the process to the platform and supplying the products (“POCare Services”). These are services for third party companies and for CGTs that are not necessarily based on our POCare Therapies. POCare Services The POCare Services that we and our affiliated entities perform include: ● ● ● ● ● ● Process development of therapies, process adaptation, and optimization inside the OMPULs, or “OMPULization”; Adaptation of automation and closed systems to serviced therapies; Incorporation of the serviced therapies compliant with GMP in the OMPULs that we designed and built; Tech transfers and training of local teams for the serviced therapies at the POCare Centers; Processing and supply of the therapies and required supplies under GMP conditions within our POCare Network, including required quality control testing; and Contract Research Organization (“CRO”) services for clinical trials. The POCare Services are performed in decentralized hubs that provide harmonized and standardized services to customers (“POCare Centers”). We are working to expand the number and scope of our POCare Centers. We believe that this provides an efficient and scalable pathway for CGT therapies to reach patients rapidly at lowered costs. Our POCare Services are designed to allow rapid capacity expansion while integrating new technologies to bring together patients, doctors and industry partners with a goal of achieving standardized, regulated clinical development and production of therapies. 6 POCare Services Operations via Subsidiaries We currently conduct our core business operations ourselves and through Morgenesis and its subsidiaries which are all wholly owned except as otherwise stated below (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”). The following is a description of our Subsidiaries: Morgenesis LLC In August 2022, we formed Morgenesis LLC, a subsidiary to hold substantially all the assets of our POCare Services. We formed Morgenesis to streamline all existing POCare Service business units into one unified entity, bringing together a full-service range of solutions for therapeutic developers for point of care treatments. The newly formalized service offering provides solutions from initial process development, regulatory strategy and implementation, “OMPULization” which includes cGMP process development, closing/automating the process, and with the end goal of optimizing full cGMP processing and supply of therapeutic product to patients at the point of care. We currently own 76.9% of Morgenesis. During November 2022, we and MM OS Holdings, L.P. (“MM”), an affiliate of Metalmark Capital Partners (“Metalmark”), entered into a series of definitive agreements intended to finance, strengthen and expand our POCare Services business (the “Metalmark Investment”). Pursuant to a unit purchase agreement (the “UPA”), MM agreed to purchase 3,019,651 Class A Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class A Units”), which represents 22.31% of the outstanding equity interests of Morgenesis following the initial closing, for a purchase price of $30.2 million, comprised of (i) $20 million of cash consideration and (ii) the conversion of $10.2 million of MM’s then-outstanding senior secured convertible loans previously entered into with MM. Under certain conditions related to Morgenesis’ performance among others, MM has agreed to make future payments of up to $20 million in cash for additional Class A (or Class B) Units, and/or make a one-time cash payment of $10 million to Orgenesis (the “Earnout Payment”). In connection with the entry into of the UPA, we, Morgenesis and MM entered into the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) providing for certain restrictions on the disposition of Morgenesis securities, the provisions of certain options and rights with respect to the management and operations of Morgenesis, a right for MM to exchange any units of Morgenesis for shares of Orgenesis common stock and certain other rights and obligations. In addition, MM was provided certain protective rights in Morgenesis. We transferred the following subsidiaries to Morgenesis, and the proceeds of the investment will generally be used to fund the activities of Morgenesis and its consolidated subsidiaries. ● ● ● ● ● ● Orgenesis Maryland LLC, which is the center of POCare Services activity in North America and is currently focused on setting up and providing POCare Services and cell-processing services to the POCare Network. Tissue Genesis International LLC, which was formed in Texas in 2022, is currently focused on development of our technologies and therapies. Orgenesis Services SRL, which was incorporated in 2022 and is currently focused on expanding our POCare Network in Belgium. Orgenesis Germany GmbH, which is currently focused on providing CRO services to the POCare Network. Orgenesis Korea Co. Ltd., which is a provider of cell-processing and pre-clinical services in Korea. The Company owns 94.12% of the Korean Subsidiary. Orgenesis Biotech Israel Ltd., which is a provider of process development and cell-processing services in Israel. In December 2022, we (through our subsidiary Morgenesis) gained control over Theracell Laboratories, a Greek company currently focused on expanding our POCare Network. (See notes 12 and 13) 7 Integration of Custom Fit Solutions within the POCare Center Our aim is to provide a pathway to bring ATMPs in the cell and gene therapy industry from research to patients worldwide through our POCare Platform. We define point of care as a process of collecting, processing, and administering cells as close as possible to the clinical setting. We believe that this approach is an attractive proposition for CGT during the clinical development stage and even more so upon market approval therapies. This will potentially help to minimize or eliminate the need for cell transportation, which is a high-risk and costly aspect of the supply chain, further allowing flexible production and patient treatment and reduce the cost and lengthy timelines associated with building additional clean rooms and complex tech transfers between production sites. We believe that the existing industry paradigm in which each therapy developer invests in setting up unique infrastructure such as specialized clean rooms and production facilities is inefficient. The cost of construction, regulatory authorization and maintenance of these facilities is not only prohibitive but extremely difficult and lengthy to replicate, allowing no economies of scale. We have based the design of our POCare Platform on the concept of standardizing infrastructure by providing flexible building blocks through the POCare Centers and OMPULs, which allows for quick expansion at multiple locations. ● ● ● Local Decentralization: POCare Centers are set up in preferred regions, based on nearby hospitals’ capacity needs, and support the POCare Services model by providing POCare Services. Global Harmonization: The POCare Platform overcomes conventional processing challenges by enabling high quality standards and sterile, scalable onsite processing of CGTs orchestrated by the POCare Centers to service local hospitals. Processing infrastructure is harmonized and reproducible using the OMPUL. The use of an OMPUL can shorten implementation time from approximately 18-24 months to approximately 3-9 months, offers a more cost-effective environment and enables local scalability by connecting additional OMPULs. The network structure is supported and connected by the centralization of the harmonized best industry practices and standards to meet the highest quality standards (“QMS”, Quality Management System). Further global harmonization is implemented through standardization of the training programs, centralized data management and a unified supply chain. OMPULization of Therapies: Strong process development capabilities are critical for any CGT to scale. All therapeutic candidates must undergo some level of process development to move from the discovery phase to the clinical phase, if only to establish the same protocols under GMP. The POCare Platform takes process development to the next level, implementing a process we call OMPULization. OMPULization includes unitizing the process to the exact specifications of the OMPUL so it can be rapidly implemented in OMPULs around the world. In addition, OMPULization incorporates the latest technology solutions to close and automate the process whenever possible. Integrated closed and automated processing systems require fewer full-time employees (“FTEs”) to produce GMP batches, resulting in lower cost of goods and a process that has the ability to scale in sync with market demand. Full automation may not be necessary for all clinical phases, but it is important to plan for future incorporation. To this end, we have invested time and capital into evaluating relevant technology for CGT processing and have developed proprietary equipment that did not exist in the marketplace. 8 We aim to build value in various aspects of our company ranging from supply related processes including development and distribution systems, clinical and regulatory services, engineering and devices such as OMPULs discussed below and delivery systems. Therapies serviced include immuno-oncology, anti-aging, metabolic, dermatology, orthopedic, as well as regenerative technologies. The POCare Platform is a unique globally harmonized and decentralized CGT-processing infrastructure that offers cost- effective processing capacities with ease for scalability and reproducibility. By producing personalized cell and gene therapies (CGTs) utilizing the POCare Platform, we are able to add new capacity within months instead of years. Over time, we have worked to develop and validate POCare Technologies that can be combined within mobile production units for advanced therapies. We have made significant investments in the implementation of several therapy types in OMPULs and have made significant progress in the validation, risk analysis, regulatory and other related tasks relating to the OMPULs. We are setting up the OMPULs through our POCare Centers. OMPULs are designed for the purpose of validation, development, performance of clinical trials, manufacturing and/or processing of potential or approved cell and gene therapy products in a safe, reliable, and cost-effective manner at the point of care, as well as the manufacturing of such CGTs in a consistent and standardized manner in all locations. The design delivers a potential industrial solution for us to deliver CGTs to most clinical institutions at the point of care. 9 Above are diagrams of an OMPUL and partial interior for illustrative purposes only. We have finalized or are in the process of finalizing the development of several POCare Centers and adapting to the local requirements of each POCare Center with the target of achieving a capacity to process and supply CGTs per production contracts. As we expand operations, we expect that the OMPUL setup costs will decline over time. Most of our POCare revenue to date is in support of the implementation of technologies and therapies in the OMPULs and production at the POCare Sites. We have established POCare Centers in several locations globally, in which we perform process development and manufacturing activities for several types of CGT products. For example, in Israel, our POCare Center includes process development and QC labs, as well as OMPULs located at a hospital site in the center of Israel and an additional OMPUL in preparation for an additional hospital. In these OMPULs, we currently manufacture TILs and CAR-T therapies for our customers. In Greece, our POCare Center includes three OMPULs installed in place and a process development lab, currently servicing two customers. Our POCare Center in Maryland, USA, includes an operating process development lab. We are also establishing cleanroom-based facility funded by a government grant. In Spain we have an OMPUL producing a clinical grade product. POCare Services Development Facilities OBI OBI is our specialized process and technology development wholly-owned subsidiary focused on custom-made process development, upscaling design from lab to industry innovation and automation procedures, which are extremely essential in the cell therapy industry. OBI is located in Bar-Lev Industrial Park utilizing the exclusive Israeli innovative ecosystem and highly experienced and talented associates including Ph.D. holders and biotechnology engineers. The center provides end to end solutions to cell therapy industrialization, process development capabilities and proficiency, custom-made engineering and a unique platform for creative design and process optimization. OBI occupies 1,300 square meters of labs and offices resulting in an efficient and unique environment for cell therapy development. In connection with the Masthercell Sale completed in 2020, for a period of three years in the European Union and five years in the United States and the rest of the world from the closing date of the Masthercell Sale, we agreed that OBI will not manufacture products on a contract basis for third-party customers in any jurisdiction other than the State of Israel, but it may conduct such CDMO business in the State of Israel, solely for customers located within the State of Israel or with respect to therapies intended for distribution solely within the State of Israel. The Masthercell sale agreement stipulated that OBI may also conduct, worldwide, (i) point-of-care system, point-of-care products, point-of-care systems, point-of- care processing, and point-of-care development services for the development, manufacturing or processing of therapeutics, processes, systems and technologies to treat patients in a point-of-care clinical, hospital or institutional setting, any future point-of- care services substantially related to the foregoing, and advanced therapy medicinal products either proprietary to us or our affiliates or proprietary to a third-party partner (including a joint venture partner) or collaborator, which includes research, development, systems, manufacturing and processing of therapeutic technology products, systems, and processes, methods or services and (ii) research, manufacturing, development and other activities related to the research, development, manufacturing, discovery and commercialization of therapeutic products or technologies, and processes, systems, methods or services thereof for its own account or in order to make such products or services available for the account of their third-party partners (including joint venture partners) or collaborators (including such therapeutic products, processes or technologies in which we or one of our affiliates has an economic interest or any relationship with any third-party or that are created, developed, manufactured or sold by a joint venture, partnership or collaboration between us or any of our affiliates and a third-party (individually and collectively, “Permitted Business”). 10 The Korean Subsidiary The Korean Subsidiary has a particular focus on developing innovative cell therapies for our customers.

It occupies innovative facilities for the development and quality control of therapies in R&D and GMP grades. Theracell Laboratories Theracell Laboratories, located in Greece, specializes on developing and processing innovative cell therapies for our customers. It was designated as a “Priority Investment of Strategic National Importance” by Enterprise Greece, the official Greek national investment and trade promotion agency, which is responsible for the allocation of Greek government funding. As a result of this designation, Theracell will be inducted into Greece’s fast-track licensing and approval process. This is expected to help advance development and clinical use of our CGT at POCare, subject to regulatory requirements. Notable 2022 POCare Services Activities In 2022, we continued to focus on setting up our regional POCare activities. This included the setup of POCare Centers that oversee regional development and GMP services, local OMPUL deployment and supply of products to the local clinical centers. We are in the process of expanding the capacity of our POCare Centers in Maryland, Boston, California, Belgium, Greece, Slovenia, Israel, Italy, Spain and Korea. Future set-up plans include potential sites in the U.S. and EU where we already have initial activity such as in Germany and Texas, as well as in Australia and China. 11 As part of our POCare Services, we have developed the relevant GMP processes for a variety of therapies such as CAR-T, TILs, NK and MSC based therapies. We have developed OMPULs with the required systems for production of CAR-T, TILs and MSC products, and are working on several other therapies intended for clinical testing. TIL, CAR-Ts and MSCs were already produced in the OMPULs for our customers. We have worked closely with technology partners to adapt various systems for closed system production of the above products and continue our collaboration efforts to develop fully automated systems for integration in the OMPULs. We expanded our collaboration with UC Davis and have completed the first production batch of GMP grade lentivirus to be utilized for clinical grade production of CAR-Ts. We intend to expand the collaboration to establish and validate the decentralized model of OMPUL placement in compliance with regulatory requirements. The parties aim to commercialize and install OMPULs at other sites within the State of California. We have expanded our partnership with Johns Hopkins University and are setting up a GMP facility with the support of a grant from Maryland. We are providing products to several hospitals in the U.S., are working closely with leading hospitals in Spain and Italy and are working closely with clinicians from hospitals in Israel, where we have deployed our OMPULs to set up additional clinical sites where we can provide POCare Services for our customers and partners. Based on the requests of our customers and partners, we have expanded our POCare Services to include CRO services. We have collaborated closely with our Greek partner, Theracell, and have set up a partnership in Greece focusing on delivering advanced therapies to Greek hospitals. The Greek government has granted our Greek joint venture entity a “fast track” status and a supportive financial grant. Our POCare Services are expanding to additional geographies, and we are providing services to the U.S., EU, and Asia. POCare Therapies The global CGT market is growing at a rapid pace, now with over 2,000 active clinical trials (ARM H1 2022 Report), including 200+ in Phase III and 254 new clinical trials in 2022 (ARM State of the Industry Briefing). Several biotech companies developing CGTs have been acquired by large pharma (Gilead Sciences acquired Kite Pharma, Roche acquired Spark Therapeutics, Bayer acquired AskBio) for several billion dollars before generating their first revenues. According to an article by McKinsey & Company from April 2020, CGT products account for 12 percent of the industry’s clinical and 16 percent of the preclinical pipeline. 16 of the world’s largest 20 biopharma companies now have CGT assets in their product portfolios. This is a relatively new field, developing quickly in the last decade. The initial development of these therapies began at clinical research centers, based on attempts of researchers and clinicians to incorporate the scientific knowledge that accumulated from the biotechnology industry, including advancements in genetic engineering of cells, cell sourcing, tissue engineering and the medical advancements of immunology. In the early years of development, it was not even clear if such therapies would be considered a clinical treatment (such as a bone marrow transplant) or drug product such as a recombinant protean. In the last decade there has been much development in the regulatory framework required to bring such products to market, but still there is vagueness in some markets and unique regulatory pathways (such as the legal framework in the EU for hospital exemption allowing hospitals who wish to provide such therapies to their patients to take responsibility for treating patients). Though the biotech industry has embraced this new modality of drug development, they face many challenges. The pharma and biotech companies are used to centralized production and providing shelf products that can be stored and made available on demand. Their development and production teams are eager to fit these therapies into the existing well-known paradigms. This has proven to be extremely challenging, and the result has been approvals of products such as CAR-Ts for blood cancers and products for treatment of genetic diseases costing hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even over a million dollars per patient. The capacity to produce such products is limited and though they are considered a breakthrough in terms of clinical results, the high cost has been prohibitive of market acceptance. 12 While the biotech industry struggles to determine the best way to lower cost of goods and enable CGTs to scale, the scientific community continues to advance and push the development of such therapies to new heights. Clinicians and researchers are excited by all the new tools (new generations of industrial viruses, big data analysis for genetic and molecular data) and technologies (CRISPR, mRNA, etc.) available (often at a low cost) to perform advanced research in small labs. Most new therapies arise from academic institutes or small spinouts from such institutes. Though such research efforts may manage to progress into a clinical stage, utilizing lab based or hospital-based production solutions they lack the resources to continue the development of such drugs to market approval. Historically, drug/therapeutic development has required investments of hundreds of millions of dollars to be successful. One significant cause for the high cost is that each therapy often requires unique production facilities and technologies that must be subcontracted or built. Further the cost of production during the clinical stage is extremely expensive, and the cost of the clinical trial itself is very high. Given these financial restraints, researchers and institutes hope to out- license their therapeutic products to large biotech companies or spin-out new companies and raise large fundraising rounds. However, in many cases they lack the resources and the capability to de-risk their therapeutic candidates enough to be attractive for such fundings or partnership. Our POCare Network is an alternative to the traditional pathway of drug development. Orgenesis works closely with many such institutes and is in close contact with researchers in the field. The partnerships with leading hospitals and research institutes gives us a deep insight as to the developments in the field, as well as the market potential, the regulatory landscape and optimal clinical pathway to potentially bring these products to market. The ability to produce these products at low cost, allows for an expedited development process and the partnership with hospitals around the globe enables joint grants and lower cost of clinical development. The POCare Therapies division reviews many therapies available for out licensing and select the ones which they believe have the highest market potential, can benefit the most from a point of care approach and have the highest chance of clinical success. It assesses such issues by utilizing its global POCare Network and its internal knowhow accumulated over a decade of involvement in the field. The goal of this in-licensing is to quickly adapt such therapies to a point-of- care approach through regional partnerships, and to out-license the products for market approval in preferred geographical regions. This approach lowers overall development cost, through minimizing pre-clinical development costs incurred by us, and through receiving of the additional funding from grants and/or payments by regional partners.

Therapies in Development Our cell and gene therapies pipeline includes investigational therapies and next-generation technologies that have the power to transform the way cancer and other unmet clinical needs are treated. Our pipeline is predominantly comprised of personalised autologous cell therapies, implying that patients receive cells that originate from their own body, virtually eliminating the risk of an immune response and rejection. Our promising pipeline focuses on advanced therapy medicinal products is originated from solid internal proprietary, joint ventures and in-licensing agreements with biotech companies and leading research institutes. Our main therapeutic fields encompass cell-based immuno-oncology, cell-based drug delivery platforms, regenerative medicine, anti-viral and autoimmune disease. The following table summarizes our therapies in development, which are discussed in detail below: Therapy HiCAR-T CeCART T-LOOP Intra Nasal Delivery of Cell based Immunotherapy MSCP EVRD MDVAC AutoSVF CellFix KYSLECEL (see 1 below) KT-DM-103 and KT-CP-203 (3D-Printed Pancreatic Islets) (see 2 below) RanTop, Ranpirnase Topical Formulation (see 3 below) Autovac (see 4 below) Bioxomes (see 5 below) MSPP Development Stage IND enabling studies Pre-clinical IND enabling studies Pre-Clinical Pre-clinical Pre-clinical IND enabling studies Clinical development Clinical use Market approval in the US Own development Indication B-ALL, B-cell Lymphoma Solid Tumors Solid Tumors Drug delivery technology, Glioblastoma Wound healing and Psoriasis CKD Pancreatic Cancer Systemic ARDS , vascular disorders Cartilage Defects TP-IAT Type 1 diabetes and chronic pancreatitis Clinical Stage Anti-viral/ Immune oncology Pre-clinical Pre-clinical Pre-clinical 14 Autologous viral vaccine Drug Delivery Technology Urinary Incontinence 1. KYSLECEL® (Autologous Pancreatic Islets) The patient’s own pancreatic islets, comprised of the cells that secrete insulin to regulate blood sugar, form KYSLECEL, a minimally manipulated autologous cell-based product, produced according to current good tissue practices (cGTP), available in the United States and regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The target population of KYSLECEL is chronic or acute recurrent pancreatitis patients after total pancreatectomy (TP-IAT), who are in need of insulin secretory capacity preservation. To gain insight into KYSLECEL patient outcomes, an observational study is expected to be initiated in the United States. In addition, to promote process development and marketing of KYSLECEL in the European Union, substantial efforts are being invested. In this regard, designated teams are being trained by Orgenesis, to manage the introduction of KYSLECEL into new markets by supporting tech transfer, as well as working on the automation of the manufacturing process. We are also considering new potential indications, as well as promoting the development of new additional biological product. 2. KT-DM-103 and KT-CP-203 (3D-Printed Pancreatic Islets) Orgenesis, through the acquisition of Koligo, has exclusively licensed patents and technology from the University of Louisville Research Foundation, related to the revascularization and 3D printing of cells and tissues intended for transplantation (“3D-V” technology platform). Utilizing this technology, potential autologous and allogeneic pancreatic islet transplants may be implemented to treat type 1 diabetes (KT-DM-103), and chronic pancreatitis (KT-CP-203). In addition to pancreatic islet transplantation, the 3D-V technology platform may also support improved transplantation of other cell and tissue types. 3. RanTop, Ranpirnase Topical Formulation We are developing a novel topical gel formulation of an active RNA-degrading enzyme, called Ranpirnase. Ranpirnase combats viral infections by targeting double-stranded RNA including miRNA precursors, via RNA degradation catalysis. Topical Ranpirnase demonstrated good tolerability and preliminary clinical efficacy in the treatment of HPV-associated external anogenital warts (EGW) in a Phase 2a clinical study conducted in Bolivia. Following FDA positive pre-IND feedback, a dermal toxicology feasibility study was conducted, showing that Ranpirnase gel formulation was well-tolerated in repeated daily topical administration. Additionally, a sensitive Ranpirnase blood concentration bioanalytical method was established, needed for determining systemic exposure in toxicology studies for IND filing. We have demonstrated in laboratory experiments the feasibility of Ranpirnase encapsulation in the Orgenesis Bioxome delivery platform, as well as an encapsulation-enhanced Ranpirnase anti-viral activity in an in vitro test. Following identification of an optimal cell source, the combined product will be further developed for oncological indications. 4. Autologous Cell-Based Vaccine for protecting against SARS-CoV-2 AutoVac is an autologous, pan-antigenic vaccine platform. The vaccine is based on the use of a specific target for ex vivo induction of autologous cell-based vaccine that enables rapid response in times of a viral outbreak. As initial proof of concept, we are validating this novel cell-based vaccine platform against Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Preliminary in vitro results demonstrated successful immune cell activation, correlated with antigen expression. Currently, additional pre-clinical immunogenicity studies are planned for regulatory submission support, as well as regulatory and clinical strategy finalization. In addition, other viral pathogens are tested, to confirm specificity, and robustness of this vaccine platform. 5. BioxomesTM as a cell-based delivery product Exosomes are small, membrane-enclosed extracellular vesicles, involved in cell-to-cell interactions. Exosomes may serve as a valuable therapeutic modality, given their ability to transfer a wide variety of therapeutic payloads among cells that can affect a cell in multiple ways, and can be designed to reach specific cell types. Bioxomes are biocompatible and serve as GMP/GLP- compliant exosome-like membrane nanostructures that can be produced from various cell types. To this end, we have developed a proprietary large-scale GMP-compatible manufacturing process for preparation of Bioxome, from human adipose cells, fibroblasts, blood cells, as well as plant cells. 15 Additionally, preliminary biodistribution studies demonstrated specific organ tropism, as well as enhanced skin penetration, when applied topically. Further biodistribution and bioavailability studies with Bioxomes, encapsulated with selected therapeutic cargos are on-going to confirm efficacy and safety. Bioxomes are planned to be utilized as the next generation biological delivery platform for Immuno-oncology indications. Currently, the regulatory strategy is being finalized according to US FDA requirements.

Our therapies include, but are not limited to, autologous, cell-based immunotherapies, therapeutics for metabolic diseases, anti-viral diseases, and tissue regeneration. We are establishing and positioning the business to bring point-of-care therapies to patients in a scalable way working directly with hospitals and through regional JV partners and JVs active in autologous cell therapy product development, including facilities in various countries in North America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Australia. Our goal through the POCare Platform is to enable a rapid, globally harmonized pathway for these therapies to reach large numbers of patients at lowered costs through efficient, and decentralized production. Our POCare Network brings together industry partners, research institutes and hospitals worldwide to achieve harmonized, regulated clinical development and production of the therapies. We are focused on technology in licensing and therapeutic collaborations, and we out-license therapies marketing rights and manufacturing rights to partners and/or to the JVs. In many cases, the JVs are responsible for the preparation of clinical trials, local regulatory approvals and regional marketing activities. Such licensing includes exclusive or nonexclusive, sublicensable, royalty bearing rights and license to the Orgenesis Background IP as required to manufacture, distribute and market and sell Orgenesis products within the relevant territories. In consideration of the rights and the licenses so granted, we receive a royalty in the range of ten percent of the net sales generated by the JV Entity and/or its sublicensees (as applicable) with respect to the Orgenesis products. Further to revenues generated from out-licensing, we generate revenues from POCare Services and sales which is comprised of: ● R&D development services provided to out-licensing partners We have signed POCare development services Master Services Agreements (“MSAs”) with our JV partners. In terms of the MSAs, we provide certain broadly defined development services that relate to our licensed therapies designed to develop or enhance the therapy with the objective of preparing it for clinical use. Such services, per therapy, include regulatory services, pre- clinical studies, intellectual property services, development services, and GMP process translation. We also provide support services to our customers. ● Hospital supply Hospital services includes the sale or lease of products and the performance of processing services to our POCare hospitals or other medical providers. We either work directly with hospitals or receive payments through our regional JV partnerships. ● Cell process development revenue We provide cell process development services in some regions to third party customers. Those services are unique to the customers who retain the ownership of the intellectual property created through the process. ● POCare cell processing We provide distributed cell processing services for third party customers at POCare Centers in close proximity to patients. Our POCare revenue is as follows: Revenue stream: POCare development services Cell process development services and hospital services POCare cell processing Total 17 Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) $ $ 14,894 $ 11,212 9,919 36,025 $ 32,192 3,310 - 35,502 Competition in the Cell Therapy Field The biopharmaceutical industry is intensely competitive. There is continuous demand for innovation and speed, and as the cell-based therapies market evolves, there is always the risk that a competitor may be able to develop other compounds or drugs that are able to achieve similar or better results for indications. Potential competition includes major multinational pharmaceutical companies, established biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, universities, and other research institutions. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, and other resources, such as larger research and development staff and experienced marketing and manufacturing organizations with established sales forces. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large, established companies. Currently, we are not aware of any other companies pursuing a business model similar to what we are developing under our POCare Platform. However, our competitors in the CGT field who are significantly larger and better capitalized than us could undertake strategies similar to what we are pursuing and even develop them at a much more rapid rate. These potential competitors include the same multinational pharmaceutical companies, established biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, universities, and other research institutions that are operating in the CGT field. In that respect, smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large, established companies. Intellectual Property We will be able to protect our technology and products from unauthorized use by third parties only to the extent it is covered by valid and enforceable claims of our patents or is effectively maintained as trade secrets. Patents and other proprietary rights are thus an essential element of our business. Our success will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain proprietary protection for our product candidates, technology, and know-how, to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others, and to prevent others from infringing our proprietary rights. Our policy is to seek to protect our proprietary position by, among other methods, filing U.S. and foreign patent applications related to our proprietary technology, inventions, and improvements that are important to the development of our business. We also rely on trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovation, and in-licensing opportunities to develop and maintain our proprietary position. In addition, we own or have exclusive rights to thirty-six (36) United States patents, seventy-five (75) foreign-issued patents, eighteen (18) pending patent applications in the United States, seventy-one (71) pending patent applications in foreign jurisdictions, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Europe, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, North Korea, Panama, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, and South Korea, and eleven (11) international Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) patent applications.

Counterpart patents granted in Austria, Australia, Belgium, China, Eurasia, France, Germany, Greece, Israel, Switzerland, Japan, Mexico, Panama, Singapore, South Korea, and the United Kingdom, will expire between 2024 and 2035. We also own IP and related Extracellular Vesicle (“EV”) Technology pursuant to an EV purchase agreement (the “EV Agreement”). Pursuant to the EV Agreement, we received all of the rights in EV technology purchased. In addition, we received an exclusive worldwide license to use the EV IP technology for any purpose. Government Regulation Development Business We are required to comply with the regulatory requirements of various local, state, national and international regulatory bodies having jurisdiction in the countries or localities where we manufacture products, where our OMPULs are established or where we plan to supply products. In particular, we are subject to laws and regulations concerning research and development, testing, manufacturing processes, equipment and facilities, including compliance with GMPs, labeling and distribution, import and export, facility registration or licensing, and product registration and listing. As a result, our facilities are subject to regulation in Israel and South Korea. We are also required to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, as discussed below. These regulatory requirements impact many aspects of our operations, including manufacturing, developing, labeling, packaging, storage, distribution, import and export and record keeping related to customers’ products. Noncompliance with any applicable regulatory requirements can result in government refusal to approve facilities for manufacturing products or products for commercialization. Both of our products and our customers’ products must undergo pre-clinical and clinical evaluations relating to product safety and efficacy before they are approved as commercial therapeutic products. The regulatory authorities that have jurisdiction in the countries in which our and our customers’ products are intended to be marketed may delay or put on hold clinical trials, delay approval of a product or determine that the product is not approvable. The regulatory agencies can delay approval of a drug if our manufacturing facilities or OMPULs are not able to demonstrate compliance with cGTPs, pass other aspects of pre-approval inspections (i.e., compliance with filed submissions) or properly scale up to produce commercial supplies. The government authorities having jurisdiction in the countries in which our customers intend to market their products have the authority to withdraw product approval or suspend manufacture if there are significant problems with raw materials or supplies, quality control and assurance or the product is deemed adulterated or misbranded. In addition, if new legislation or regulations are enacted or existing legislation or regulations are amended or are interpreted or enforced differently, we may be required to obtain additional approvals or operate according to different manufacturing or operating standards or pay additional fees. This may require a change in our manufacturing techniques or additional capital investments in our facilities. 20 Certain products manufactured by us involve the use, storage and transportation of toxic and hazardous materials. Our operations are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to the storage, handling, emission, transportation and discharge of materials into the environment and the maintenance of safe working conditions. We maintain environmental and industrial safety and health compliance programs and training at our facilities. Prevailing legislation tends to hold companies primarily responsible for the proper disposal of their waste even after transfer to third party waste disposal facilities. Other future developments, such as increasingly strict environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, and enforcement policies, could result in substantial costs and liabilities to us and could subject the handling, manufacture, use, reuse or disposal of substances or pollutants at our facilities to more rigorous scrutiny than at present. Our development operations involve the controlled use of hazardous materials and chemicals. Although we believe that our procedures for using, handling, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, we may incur significant additional costs to comply with applicable laws in the future. Also, even if we are in compliance with applicable laws, we cannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from hazardous materials or chemicals. As a result of any such contamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt our business operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed our resources. Compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our contract manufacturing operations, which could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. The costs associated with complying with the various applicable local, state, national and international regulations could be significant and the failure to comply with such legal requirements could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Development and Regulatory Approval of Our Therapies and Product Candidates — Extensive industry regulation has had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, especially our product development, manufacturing and distribution capabilities.” for additional discussion of the costs associated with complying with the various regulations. POCare Therapies Portfolio Our therapeutic product portfolio pipeline is diverse and addresses various unmet clinical needs. It is predominantly comprised of personalized autologous cell therapies, implying that patients receive cells that originate from their own body, virtually eliminating the risk of an immune response and rejection and thus easing various regulatory hurdles. In addition, by leveraging our vast experience and proven track record in developing and optimizing cell processing, these selective therapies are adapted to be produced in closed, automated systems, reducing the need for high grade cleanroom environments. The systems enable each stage of the manufacturing process (cell sorting, expansion, genetic modifications, quality control) to be optimized in order to substantially reduce the cost burden for patients and making the therapies widely accessible. Notably, our therapeutic pipeline is developed by researchers from our network and are subsequently out-licensed and validated in multi-center clinical trials conducted across point of care partner sites leveraging the robustness of our POCare Network. Once approved these therapies are distributed to leading medical institutions globally within our network and thus granting the inventors a royalty-based commercialization horizon. Regulatory Process in the United States Our potential product candidates are subject to regulation as a biological product under the Public Health Service Act and the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The FDA generally requires the following steps for pre-market approval or licensure of a new biological product: ● Pre-clinical laboratory and animal tests conducted in compliance with Good Laboratory Practice, or GLP, requirements to assess a drug’s biological activity and to identify potential safety problems, and to characterize and document the product’s chemistry, manufacturing controls, formulation, and stability; 21 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Submission to the FDA of an Investigational New Drug, or IND, application, which must become effective before clinical testing in humans can start; Obtaining approval of Institutional Review Boards, or IRBs, of research institutions or other clinical sites to introduce biologic drug candidates into humans in clinical trials; Conducting adequate and well-controlled clinical trials to establish the safety and efficacy of the product for its intended indication conducted in compliance with Good Clinical Practice, or GCP, requirements; Compliance with current GMP regulations and standards; Submission to the FDA of a Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for marketing that includes adequate results of pre- clinical testing and clinical trials; The FDA reviews the marketing application in order to determine, among other things, whether the product is safe, effective and potent for its intended uses; and Obtaining FDA approval of the BLA, including inspection and approval of the product manufacturing facility as compliant with GMP requirements, prior to any commercial sale or shipment of the pharmaceutical agent. The FDA may also require post marketing testing and surveillance of approved products or place other conditions on the approvals. Regulatory Process in Europe In the European Union (“EU”) somatic cell and gene therapy products are called Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product (ATMPs). Since January 2022 the Clinical Trial Regulation (EU) 536/2014 regulates the application of medicinal products including ATMPs to humans immediately effective in all member states. In conjunction with Regulation 536/2014 the EU commission has released two delegated acts regulating manufacturing of investigational as well as marketed AMPs. For products that are regulated as an ATMP, Regulation requires: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Compliance with current GMP regulations and standards, as described in the delegated acts; Filing a Clinical Trial Application (“CTA”); in EU member states and EEA countries according to regulation 536/2014 via CTIS (Clinical Trial Information System) allowing a harmonized approval process among all member states (including multinational clinical trials); Obtaining approval by ethic committees responsible for medical institutions; Adequate and well-controlled clinical trials according to GCP standards protecting the well-being of a study participant and establishing the safety and efficacy of the product for its intended use; Centralized submission procedure for ATMPs via EMA for Marketing Authorization; and Review and approval of the Marketing Authorization Application. As in the U.S., prior to the general regulatory process of a new biologic products, we will prosecute an Orphan Drug Designation for treatment of patients with established “Diabetes Mellitus” induced by total pancreatectomy. In the EU, in order to be qualified, the prevalence must be below 5 per 10,000 of the EU population, except where the expected return on investment is insufficient to justify the investment. Authorized orphan medicines benefit from 10 years of protection from market competition with similar medicines with similar indications once they are approved. Companies applying for designated orphan medicines pay reduced fees for regulatory activities. This includes reduced fees for protocol assistance, marketing-authorization applications, inspections before authorization, applications for changes to marketing authorizations made after approval, and reduced annual fees. Exemption from the centralized procedure was introduced into the ATMP Regulation to allow marketing of certain ATMPs in individual EU member states. The so-called “hospital exemption” can only be applied for custom-made ATMPs used in a hospital setting for a specific patient by a treating physician. In addition, a competent authority must authorize hospital exemption for ATMPs. Hospital exemption products must comply with the same national requirements concerning quality, traceability and pharmacovigilance that apply to authorized medicinal products. The “hospital exemption” has to be applied for individually in each EU member state according to national procedures and control measures. 22 Clinical Trials Typically, both in the U.S. and the EU, clinical testing involves a three-phase process, although the phases may overlap. In Phase I, clinical trials are conducted with a small number of healthy volunteers or patients and are designed to provide information about product safety and to evaluate the pattern of drug distribution and metabolism within the body. In Phase II, clinical trials are conducted with groups of patients afflicted with a specific disease in order to determine preliminary efficacy, optimal dosages and expanded evidence of safety. In some cases, an initial trial is conducted in diseased patients to assess both preliminary efficacy and preliminary safety and patterns of drug metabolism and distribution, in which case it is referred to as a Phase I/II trial. Phase III clinical trials are generally large-scale, multi-center, comparative trials conducted with patients afflicted with a target disease in order to provide statistically valid proof of efficacy, as well as safety and potency. In some circumstances, the FDA or EMA may require Phase IV or post-marketing trials if it feels that additional information needs to be collected about the drug after it is on the market. During all phases of clinical development, regulatory agencies require extensive monitoring and auditing of all clinical activities, clinical data, as well as clinical trial investigators. An agency may, at its discretion, re-evaluate, alter, suspend, or terminate the testing based upon the data that have been accumulated to that point and its assessment of the risk/benefit ratio to the patient. Monitoring all aspects of the study to minimize risks is a continuing process. All adverse events must be reported to the FDA or EMA. The FDA has granted Orphan Drug designation for our AIP cells as a cell replacement therapy for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia-prone diabetes resulting from TP due to chronic pancreatitis. The FDA’s Orphan Drug Designation Program provides orphan status to drugs and biologics which are defined as those intended for the safe and effective treatment, diagnosis or prevention of rare diseases/disorders that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. Orphan designation qualifies the sponsor of the drug for various development incentives, including eligibility for seven years of market exclusivity upon regulatory approval, exemption from FDA application fees, tax credits for qualified clinical trials, and other potential assistance in the drug development process. Human Capital Resources As of December 31, 2022, we had an aggregate of 167 employees working at our company and Subsidiaries. In addition, we retain the services of outside consultants for various functions including clinical work, finance, accounting and business development services. Most of our senior management and professional employees have had prior experience in pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that we have good relations with our employees. Compensation and Benefits We believe that our future success largely depends upon our continued ability to attract and retain highly skilled employees. Biotechnology companies both large and small compete for a limited number of qualified applicants to fill specialized positions. To attract qualified applicants, we offer a total rewards package consisting of base salary and cash target bonus, a comprehensive benefit package and equity compensation to select employees. Bonus opportunity and equity compensation increase as a percentage of total compensation based on level of responsibility. Actual bonus payout is based on performance. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Much of our success is rooted in the diversity of our teams and our commitment to inclusion. We value diversity at all levels. We believe that our business benefits from the different perspectives a diverse workforce brings, and we pride ourselves on having a strong, inclusive and positive culture based on our shared mission and values. This is reflected in our numbers with our total workforce being approximately 53% women, 11% ethnically diverse and 50% over the age of 40. 23 Health, Wellness and Safety We believe that the safety and health of our employees and their families is essential to our business. Our culture is driven by a desire to do what is right, and we strive to support the well-being of our employees. We prioritize the safety and well-being of our employees as they face both mental and physical challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our employees have demonstrated great resilience during the pandemic, and we continue to provide resources to support their well-being. Beginning in March 2020, we have supported our employees and government efforts to curb the COVID-19 pandemic through a multi-faceted communication, infrastructure, and behavior modification and enforcement effort that includes: ● ● ● establishing clear and regular COVID-19 policies, safety protocols, and updates to all employees; strongly encouraging all office-based employees to work from home; and implementing protocols to address actual and suspected COVID-19 cases and potential exposure. Our financial, medical, and mental health benefits that were already in place prior to the COVID-19 pandemic were designed to help employees through crisis, and we further expanded our offerings to create appropriate “work from home” conditions for success and wellness, including purchasing additional IT equipment and office supplies and increasing communications related to our mental health benefits. In particular, we offered sessions on mindfulness to further support the mental health of our employees. Environmental, Social and Governance Our commitment to integrating sustainability across our organization begins with our Board of Directors, or the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board has oversight of strategy and risk management related to Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG. All employees are responsible for upholding our core values, including to communicate, collaborate, innovate and be respectful, as well as for adhering to our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, including our policies on bribery, corruption, conflicts of interest and our whistleblower program. We encourage employees to come to us with observations and complaints, ensuring we understand the severity and frequency of an event in order to escalate and assess accordingly. Our Chief Compliance Officer strives to ensure accountability, objectivity, and compliance with our Code of Conduct. If a complaint is financial in nature, the Audit Committee Chair is notified concurrently, which triggers an investigation, action, and report. We are committed to protecting the environment and attempt to mitigate any negative impact of our operations. We monitor resource use, improve efficiency, and at the same time, reduce our emissions and waste. We are systematically addressing the environmental impacts of the buildings we rent as we make improvements, including adding energy control systems and other energy efficiency measures. Waste in our own operation is minimized by our commitment to reduce both single-use plastics and operating paper-free, primarily in a digital environment. We have safety protocols in place for handling biohazardous waste in our labs, and we use third-party vendors for biohazardous waste and chemical disposal.

RISK FACTORS Summary of Risk Factors Below is a summary of the principal factors that make an investment in our common stock speculative or risky. This summary does not address all of the risks that we face. Additional discussion of the risks summarized in this risk factor summary, and other risks that we face, can be found below under the heading “Risk Factors” and should be carefully considered, together with other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC, before making an investment decision regarding our common stock. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Our POCare business has a limited operating history and an unproven business model and faces significant challenges as the cell therapy industry is rapidly evolving. Our prospects may be considered speculative and any failure to execute our business strategy could adversely impact our business. Our management, as of December 31, 2022, and our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, have concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. We are not profitable as of December 31, 2022, have limited cash flow and, unless we increase revenues and take advantage of any commercial opportunities that arise to expand our POCare business, the perceived value of our company may decrease and our stock price could be affected accordingly. Our research and development efforts on novel technology using cell-based therapy and our future success is highly dependent on the successful development of that technology. We have entered into collaborations and may form or seek collaborations or strategic alliances or enter into additional licensing arrangements in the future, and we may not realize the benefits of such alliances or licensing arrangements. Our success will depend on strategic collaborations with third parties to develop and commercialize therapeutic product candidates, and we may not have control over a number of key elements relating to the development and commercialization of any such product candidate. Our business has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and may be significantly adversely affected by a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic or if other events out of our control disrupt our business or that of our third-party partners. Our success depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property and our proprietary technologies. Third parties may initiate legal proceedings alleging that we are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating their intellectual property rights, the outcome of which would be uncertain and could have a material adverse effect on the success of our business. Our success depends on our ability to develop and roll out our OMPULs. If product liability lawsuits are brought against us, we may incur substantial liabilities and may be required to limit commercialization of our product candidates. We are increasingly dependent on information technology and our systems and infrastructure face certain risks, including cybersecurity and data storage risks. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop in-house sales and commercial distribution capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third-party collaborators to successfully commercialize any product in the United States or overseas, and as a result, we may not be able to generate product revenue. 25 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could halt their clinical development, prevent their regulatory approval, limit their commercial potential, or result in significant negative consequences. Our product candidates are biologics, and the manufacture of our product candidates is complex, and we may encounter difficulties in production, particularly with respect to process development or scaling-out of our manufacturing capabilities. Cell-based therapies rely on the availability of reagents, specialized equipment, and other specialty materials, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. For some of these reagents, equipment, and materials, we rely or may rely on sole source vendors or a limited number of vendors, which could impair our ability to manufacture and supply our products. We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing therapeutic products. If we are unable to establish marketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be able to generate product revenue. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop in-house sales and commercial distribution capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third-party collaborators to successfully commercialize any product in the United States or overseas, and as a result, we may not be able to generate product revenue. We face significant competition from other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, many of which have substantially greater financial, technical and other resources, and our operating results will suffer if we fail to compete effectively. We are highly dependent on key personnel who would be difficult to replace, and our business plans will likely be harmed if we lose their services or cannot hire additional qualified personnel. Extensive industry regulation has had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, especially our product development, manufacturing and distribution capabilities. Third parties to whom we may license or transfer development and commercialization rights for products covered by intellectual property rights may not be successful in their efforts and, as a result, we may not receive future royalty or other milestone payments relating to those products or rights. Morgenesis may not receive the future payments pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement with MM. MM may force the sale of Morgenesis under certain conditions which may result in MM receiving a greater value than us and our shareholders. MM may, under certain circumstances, assume control of the Board of Managers of our subsidiary, Morgenesis, which would result in our inability to control and direct the activities of such subsidiary. MM has the right to buy our units in Morgenesis upon the occurrence of certain events, which could result in us not holding any equity in Morgenesis. We may be forced to redeem all of the units of Morgenesis held by MM, which could require substantial cash outlay and would adversely affect our financial position. If MM opts to exchange its Morgenesis units for shares of our common stock, we could potentially issue up to 5,106,596 shares of our common stock to MM, which may result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders. 26 Risk Factors An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in this report in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing shares of our company’s common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks. Risks Related to Our Company and POCare Business Our POCare business has a limited operating history and an unproven business model and faces significant challenges as the cell therapy industry is rapidly evolving. Our prospects may be considered speculative and any failure to execute our business strategy could adversely impact our operations and the price of our common stock. Our POCare business has a limited operating history and an unproven business model. Our plans to continue to grow our POCare cell therapy business and to further the development of ATMPs are subject to significant challenges. Although we have sufficient capital resources for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future, we may not be able to implement our POCare business or commence clinical trials or respond to competitive pressures due to other non-financial factors beyond our control. Our failure to effectively execute our business strategy could adversely affect our ability to successfully grow our POCare business and develop cell therapy product candidates, which could cause the value of your investment in our common stock to decline. Our management, as of December 31, 2022, and our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, have concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 were prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of the presentation assumes that we will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities in the normal course of business and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2022, our management concluded that, based on expected operating losses and negative cash flows, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months after the date the financial statements were issued. Our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to raise additional capital through equity offerings or debt financings. The Unit Purchase Agreement between us and MM requires MM to make up to two additional payments to Morgenesis if certain specified Net Revenue targets (as defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement) are satisfied by Morgenesis during each of years 2022 and 2023, as described in more detail in this report. For each of those fiscal years in which such specified Net Revenue targets are satisfied by Morgenesis, MM will be obligated to pay an additional $10 million to Morgenesis shortly after the end of that fiscal year. However, we may not be able to secure additional financing in a timely manner or on favorable terms, if at all, and may not receive any such future payments under the Unit Purchase Agreements if the required milestones are not met. If we cannot continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets and may receive less than the value at which those assets are carried on our financial statements, and it is likely that our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in us. If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding on commercially reasonable terms or at all. We are not profitable as of December 31, 2022, have limited cash flow and, unless we increase revenues and take advantage of any commercial opportunities that arise to expand our POCare business, the perceived value of our company may decrease and our stock price could be affected accordingly. For the year ended December 31, 2022 and as of the date of this report, we assessed our financial condition and concluded that based on current and projected cash resources and commitments, there is a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to meet the Company’s current operations for the next 12 months from the date of this report. Our auditor’s report for the year ended December 31, 2022 includes a going concern opinion on the matter. Management is unable to predict if and when we will be able to generate significant revenues or achieve profitability. Our plan regarding these matters is to continue improving the net results in our POCare business into fiscal year 2023. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in increasing revenues, improving our POCare results or that the perceived value of our Company will increase. In the event that we are unable to generate significant revenues in our POCare business, our stock price could be adversely affected. 27 Our research and development programs are based on novel technologies and are inherently risky. We are subject to the risks of failure inherent in the development of products based on new technologies. The novel nature of our cell therapy technology creates significant challenges with respect to product development and optimization, manufacturing, government regulation and approval, third-party reimbursement and market acceptance. For example, the FDA and EMA have relatively limited experience with the development and regulation of cell therapy products and, therefore, the pathway to marketing approval for our cell therapy product candidates may accordingly be more complex, lengthy and uncertain than for a more conventional product candidate. The indications of use for which we choose to pursue development may have clinical effectiveness endpoints that have not previously been reviewed or validated by the FDA or EMA, which may complicate or delay our effort to ultimately obtain FDA or EMA approval. Because this is a new approach to treating diseases, developing and commercializing our product candidates subjects us to a number of challenges, including: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● obtaining regulatory approval from the FDA, EMA and other regulatory authorities that have very limited experience with the commercial development of our technology for treating different diseases; developing and deploying consistent and reliable processes for removing the cells from the patient engineering cells ex vivo and infusing the engineered cells back into the patient; developing processes for the safe administration of these products, including long-term follow-up for all patients who receive our products; sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our products; developing a manufacturing process and distribution network with a cost of goods that allows for an attractive return on investment; establishing sales and marketing capabilities after obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance; and maintaining a system of post marketing surveillance and risk assessment programs to identify adverse events that did not appear during the drug approval process. Our efforts to overcome these challenges may not prove successful, and any product candidate we seek to develop may not be successfully developed or commercialized. Kyslecel may not achieve patient or market acceptance, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our commercialization strategy for Kyslecel relies on medical specialists, medical facilities and patients adopting TP-IAT with Kyslecel as an accepted treatment for chronic pancreatitis. However, medical specialists are historically slow to adopt new treatments, regardless of perceived merits, when older treatments continue to be supported by established providers. Overcoming such resistance often requires significant marketing expenditure or definitive product performance and/or pricing superiority. The cost of allocating resources for such requirements might severely impact the potential for profitability of Kyslecel. There is no guarantee that physician or patient acceptance of TP-IAT with Kyslecel will be substantial. Further, there is no guarantee that Koligo will be able to achieve patient acceptance or obtain enough customers (clinical providers) to meet its sales objectives. If we do not meet our sales objectives, our business prospects and financial performance will be materially and adversely affected. Further, we are partially reliant on published clinical trials and scientific research conducted by third parties to justify the patient benefit and safety of TP-IAT with Kyslecel and, as such, we rely, in part, on the accuracy and integrity of those third-parties to have reported the results and correctly collected and interpreted the data from all clinical trials conducted to date. If published data turn out to later be incorrect or incomplete, our business prospects and financial performance may be materially and adversely affected. 28 The therapeutic efficacy of Ranpirnase and our other product candidates is unproven in humans, and we may not be able to successfully develop and commercialize Ranpirnase or any of our other product candidates. Ranpirnase and our other product candidates are novel compounds and their potential benefit as antiviral drugs or immunotherapies is unproven. Ranpirnase and our other product candidates may not prove to be effective against the indications for which they are being designed to act and may not demonstrate in clinical trials any or all of the pharmacological effects that have been observed in preclinical studies. As a result, our clinical trial results may not be indicative of the results of future clinical trials. Ranpirnase and our other product candidates may interact with human biological systems in unforeseen, ineffective or harmful ways. If Ranpirnase or any of our other product candidates is associated with undesirable side effects or have characteristics that are unexpected, we may need to abandon the development of such product candidate or limit development to certain uses or subpopulations in which the undesirable side effects or other characteristics are less prevalent, less severe or more acceptable from a risk-benefit perspective. Because of these and other risks described herein that are inherent in the development of novel therapeutic agents, we may never successfully develop or commercialize Ranpirnase or any of our other product candidates, in which case our business will be harmed. We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth. As of December 31, 2022, we had 167 employees. As our development and commercialization plans and strategies develop, we must add a significant number of additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing, financial, and other personnel. Future growth will impose significant added responsibilities on members of management, including: ● ● ● identifying, recruiting, integrating, maintaining, and motivating additional employees; managing our internal development efforts effectively, including the clinical and FDA review process for our product candidates, while complying with our contractual obligations to contractors and other third parties; and improving our operational, financial and management controls, reporting systems, and procedures. Our future financial performance and our ability to commercialize our product candidates will depend, in part, on our ability to effectively manage any future growth, and our management may also have to divert a disproportionate amount of its attention away from day-to-day activities in order to devote a substantial amount of time to managing these growth activities. This lack of long-term experience working together may adversely impact our senior management team’s ability to effectively manage our business and growth. We currently rely, and for the foreseeable future will continue to rely, in substantial part on certain independent organizations, advisors and consultants to provide certain services. There can be no assurance that the services of these independent organizations, advisors and consultants will continue to be available to us on a timely basis when needed, or that we can find qualified replacements. In addition, if we are unable to effectively manage our outsourced activities or if the quality or accuracy of the services provided by consultants is compromised for any reason, our clinical trials may be extended, delayed, or terminated, and we may not be able to obtain regulatory approval of our product candidates or otherwise advance our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to manage our existing consultants or find other competent outside contractors and consultants on economically reasonable terms, if at all. If we are not able to effectively expand our organization by hiring new employees and expanding our groups of consultants and contractors, we may not be able to successfully implement the tasks necessary to further develop and commercialize our product candidates and, accordingly, may not achieve our research, development, and commercialization goals. 29 We may require additional capital to support our business, and this capital may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges and to grow our POCare cell therapy business and to further the development of ATMPs. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. Capital and credit market conditions, adverse events affecting our business or industry, the tightening of lending standards, rising interest rates, negative actions by regulatory authorities or rating agencies, or other factors also could negatively impact our ability to obtain future financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to support our business growth and respond to business challenges could be significantly limited. In addition, the terms of any additional equity or debt issuances may adversely affect the value and price of our common stock, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any financing secured by us in the future could include restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Our operations may be adversely affected by ongoing developments in the Ukraine and Russia. In December 2020, we signed an agreement with a company one of whose principal places of business is in Russia that include collaboration in point of care development in Russia, as well as the development and commercialization of potential key technologies for our clinical development and manufacturing projects. The United States, EU, UK, Canada and Japan have imposed sanctions against and export controls involving Russia, and other potential retaliatory measures could be taken by the United States and other countries. At this time, we cannot predict the outcome of developments in Russian and the Ukraine on these agreements. Currency exchange fluctuations may impact the results of our operations. The results of our operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates in both sourcing and selling locations. Our results of operations may still be impacted by foreign currency exchange rates, primarily, the euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate. In recent years, the euro-to-U.S. dollar exchange rate has been subject to substantial volatility which may continue, particularly in light of recent political events regarding the European Union, or EU. Because we do not hedge against all of our foreign currency exposure, our business will continue to be susceptible to foreign currency fluctuations. We have entered into collaborations and joint ventures and may form or seek collaborations or strategic alliances or enter into additional licensing arrangements in the future, and we may not realize the benefits of such alliances or licensing arrangements. We have entered into collaborations and joint ventures and may form or seek strategic alliances, create joint ventures or collaborations, or enter into additional licensing arrangements with third parties that we believe will complement or augment our development and commercialization efforts with respect to our product candidates and any future product candidates that we may develop. Any of these relationships may require us to incur non-recurring and other charges, increase our near and long-term expenditures, issue securities that dilute our existing stockholders, or disrupt our management and business. In addition, we face significant competition in seeking appropriate strategic partners for which the negotiation process is time-consuming and complex. Moreover, we may not be successful in our efforts to establish a strategic partnership or other alternative arrangements for our product candidates because they may be deemed to be at too early of a stage of development for collaborative effort and third parties may not view our product candidates as having the requisite potential to demonstrate safety and efficacy. Further, collaborations involving our product candidates, such as our collaborations with third-party research institutions, are subject to numerous risks, which may include the following: ● collaborators have significant discretion in determining the efforts and resources that they will apply to a collaboration; 30 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● collaborators may not perform their obligations as expected; collaborators may not pursue development and commercialization of our product candidates or may elect not to continue or renew development or commercialization programs based on clinical trial results, changes in their strategic focus due to the acquisition of competitive products, availability of funding, or other external factors, such as a business combination that diverts resources or creates competing priorities; collaborators may delay clinical trials, provide insufficient funding for a clinical trial, stop a clinical trial, abandon a product candidate, repeat or conduct new clinical trials, or require a new formulation of a product candidate for clinical testing; collaborators could fail to make timely regulatory submissions for a product candidate; collaborators may not comply with all applicable regulatory requirements or may fail to report safety data in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements; collaborators could independently develop, or develop with third parties, products that compete directly or indirectly with our products or product candidates; product candidates developed in collaboration with us may be viewed by our collaborators as competitive with their own product candidates or products, which may cause collaborators to cease to devote resources to the commercialization of our product candidates; a collaborator with marketing and distribution rights to one or more products may not commit sufficient resources to their marketing and distribution; collaborators may not properly maintain or defend our intellectual property rights or may use our intellectual property or proprietary information in a way that gives rise to actual or threatened litigation that could jeopardize or invalidate our intellectual property or proprietary information or expose us to potential liability; disputes may arise between us and a collaborator that cause the delay or termination of the research, development or commercialization of our product candidates, or that result in costly litigation or arbitration that diverts management attention and resources; collaborations may be terminated and, if terminated, may result in a need for additional capital to pursue further development or commercialization of the applicable product candidates; and collaborators may own or co-own intellectual property covering our products that results from our collaborating with them and, in such cases, we would not have the exclusive right to commercialize such intellectual property. As a result, if we enter into collaboration agreements and strategic partnerships or license our products or businesses, we may not be able to realize the benefit of such transactions if we are unable to successfully integrate them with our existing operations and company culture, which could delay our timelines or otherwise adversely affect our business. The success of our existing and future collaboration arrangements and strategic partnerships, which include research and development services by our collaborators to improve our intellectual property, will depend heavily on the efforts and activities of our collaborators and may not be successful. We also cannot be certain that, following a strategic transaction or license, we will achieve the revenue or specific net income that justifies such transaction. Any delays in entering into new collaborations or strategic partnership agreements related to our product candidates could delay the development and commercialization of our product candidates in certain geographies for certain indications, which would harm our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. Our success will depend on strategic collaborations with third parties to develop and commercialize therapeutic product candidates, and we may not have control over a number of key elements relating to the development and commercialization of any such product candidate. A key aspect of our strategy is to seek collaborations with partners, such as a large pharmaceutical organization, that are willing to further develop and commercialize a selected product candidate. To date, we have entered into a number of collaborative arrangements with cell therapy organizations. By entering into any such strategic collaborations, we may rely on our partner for financial resources and for development, regulatory and commercialization expertise. Our partner may fail to develop or effectively commercialize our product candidate because they: ● ● do not have sufficient resources or decide not to devote the necessary resources due to internal constraints such as limited cash or human resources; decide to pursue a competitive potential product developed outside of the collaboration; 31 ● ● ● cannot obtain the necessary regulatory approvals; determine that the market opportunity is not attractive; or cannot manufacture or obtain the necessary materials in sufficient quantities from multiple sources or at a reasonable cost. We may not be able to enter into additional collaborations on acceptable terms, if at all. We face competition in our search for partners from other organizations worldwide, many of whom are larger and are able to offer more attractive deals in terms of financial commitments, contribution of human resources, or development, manufacturing, regulatory or commercial expertise and support. If we are not successful in attracting a partner and entering into a collaboration on acceptable terms, we may not be able to complete development of or commercialize any product candidate. In such event, our ability to generate revenues and achieve or sustain profitability would be significantly hindered and we may not be able to continue operations as proposed, requiring us to modify our business plan, curtail various aspects of our operations or cease operations. Our business has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and may be significantly adversely affected by a resurgence of the COVID-10 pandemic or if other events out of our control disrupt our business or that of our third-party partners. A continued and prolonged public health crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material negative impact on our business, financial condition and operating results. We have experienced and may in the future experience disruptions from a resurgence of COVID-19 to our business in a number of ways, including: ● Delays in supply chain and manufacturing, including the suspension of cell transport, limitations on transfer of technology, shutdown of manufacturing facilities and delays in delivery of supplies and reagents; ● Delays in discovery and preclinical efforts; ● Changes to procedures or shut down, or reduction in capacity, of clinical trial sites due to limited availability of clinical trial staff, reduced number of inpatient intensive care unit beds for patients receiving cell therapies, diversion of healthcare resources away from clinical trials and other business considerations; ● Limited patient access, enrollment and participation due to travel restrictions and safety concerns, as well as housing and travel difficulties for out-of-town patients and relatives; and ● Changes in regulatory and other requirements for conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials during the pandemic. In addition, we currently rely on third parties to, among other things, manufacture raw materials, manufacture our product candidates for our clinical trials, ship investigation drugs and clinical trial samples, perform quality testing and supply other goods and services to run our business. If any such third party in our supply chain for materials is adversely impacted by effects from a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, including staffing shortages, production slowdowns and disruptions in delivery systems, our supply chain may be disrupted and our costs could be increased, limiting our ability to manufacture our product candidates for our clinical trials and planned future clinical trials and conduct our research and development operations as planned. In addition, our business could be significantly adversely affected by other business disruptions to us or our third-party partners or collaborators that could seriously harm our potential future revenue and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses. Our operations, and those of our partners and collaborators, contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) and other contractors, consultants, and third parties could be subject to other global pandemics, earthquakes, power shortages, telecommunications failures, water shortages, floods, hurricanes, typhoons, fires, extreme weather conditions, medical epidemics and other natural or man-made disasters or business interruptions, for which we are predominantly self-insured. The occurrence of any of these business disruptions could seriously harm our operations and financial condition and increase our costs and expenses. We rely on third-party manufacturers to produce and process our product candidates. Our ability to obtain clinical supplies of our product candidates could be disrupted if the operations of these suppliers are affected by a man-made or natural disaster or other business interruption. 32 Our success depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property and our proprietary technologies. Our commercial success depends in part on our ability to obtain and maintain patent protection and trade secret protection for our product candidates, proprietary technologies, and their uses as well as our ability to operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others. We can provide no assurance that our patent applications or those of our licensors will result in additional patents being issued or that issued patents will afford sufficient protection against competitors with similar technologies, nor can there be any assurance that the patents issued will not be infringed, designed around or invalidated by third parties. Even issued patents may later be found unenforceable or may be modified or revoked in proceedings instituted by third parties before various patent offices or in courts. The degree of future protection for our proprietary rights is uncertain. Only limited protection may be available and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep any competitive advantage. Composition- of-matter patents on the biological or chemical active pharmaceutical ingredients are generally considered to offer the strongest protection of intellectual property and provide the broadest scope of patent protection for pharmaceutical products, as such patents provide protection without regard to any method of use or any method of manufacturing. While we have issued patents in the United States, we cannot be certain that the claims in our issued patent will not be found invalid or unenforceable if challenged. We cannot be certain that the claims in our issued United States methods of use patents will not be found invalid or unenforceable if challenged. We cannot be certain that the pending applications covering among others the bioconjugates comprising sulfated polysaccharides; Ranpirnase and other ribonucleases for treating viral diseases; therapeutic compositions comprising exosomes, bioxomes, and redoxomes; bioreactors for cell culture, automated devices for supporting cell therapies, and point-of-care systems; immune cells, ribonucleases, or antibodies for treating COVID-19; or chimeric antigen receptors (CARs); will be considered patentable by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), and courts in the United States or by the patent offices and courts in foreign countries, nor can we be certain that the claims in our issued patents will not be found invalid or unenforceable if challenged. Even if our patent applications covering these inventions issue as patents, the patents protect specific products and may not be enforced against competitors making and marketing a product that has the same activity. Method-of-use patents protect the use of a product for the specified method or for treatment of a particular indication. These types of patents may not be enforced against competitors making and marketing a product that provides the same activity but is used for a method not included in the patent. Moreover, even if competitors do not actively promote their product for our targeted indications, physicians may prescribe these products “off-label.” Although off-label prescriptions may infringe or contribute to the infringement of method-of-use patents, the practice is common and such infringement is difficult to prevent or prosecute. The patent application process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we or any of our future development partners will be successful in protecting our product candidates by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: ● ● ● ● the USPTO and various foreign governmental patent agencies require compliance with a number of procedural, documentary, fee payment and other provisions during the patent process. There are situations in which noncompliance can result in abandonment or lapse of a patent or patent application, resulting in partial or complete loss of patent rights in the relevant jurisdiction. In such an event, competitors might be able to enter the market earlier than would otherwise have been the case; patent applications may not result in any patents being issued; patents that may be issued or in-licensed may be challenged, invalidated, modified, revoked, circumvented, found to be unenforceable or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of whom have substantially greater resources and many of whom have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek or may have already obtained patents that will limit, interfere with or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential product candidates; 33 ● ● there may be significant pressure on the U.S. government and international governmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for disease treatments that prove successful, as a matter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; and countries other than the United States may have patent laws less favorable to patentees than those upheld by U.S. courts, allowing foreign competitors a better opportunity to create, develop and market competing product candidates. In addition, we rely on the protection of our trade secrets and proprietary know-how. Although we have taken steps to protect our trade secrets and unpatented know-how, including entering into confidentiality agreements with third parties, and confidential information and inventions agreements with employees, consultants and advisors, we cannot provide any assurances that all such agreements have been duly executed, and third parties may still obtain this information or may come upon this or similar information independently. Additionally, if the steps taken to maintain our trade secrets are deemed inadequate, we may have insufficient recourse against third parties for misappropriating its trade secrets. If any of these events occurs or if we otherwise lose protection for our trade secrets or proprietary know-how, our business may be harmed. Third parties may initiate legal proceedings alleging that we are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating their intellectual property rights, the outcome of which would be uncertain and could have a material adverse effect on the success of our business. Our commercial success depends upon our ability and the ability of our collaborators to develop, manufacture, market and sell our product candidates and use our proprietary technologies without infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the intellectual property and proprietary rights of third parties. There is considerable patent and other intellectual property litigation in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. We may become party to, or threatened with, adversarial proceedings or litigation regarding intellectual property rights with respect to our technology and product candidates, including interference proceedings, post grant review, inter partes review, and derivation proceedings before the USPTO and similar proceedings in foreign jurisdictions such as oppositions before the European Patent Office. The legal threshold for initiating litigation or contested proceedings is low, so that even lawsuits or proceedings with a low probability of success might be initiated and require significant resources to defend. Litigation and contested proceedings can also be expensive and time-consuming, and our adversaries in these proceedings may have the ability to dedicate substantially greater resources to prosecuting these legal actions than we can. The risks of being involved in such litigation and proceedings may increase if and as our product candidates near commercialization. Third parties may assert infringement claims against us based on existing patents or patents that may be granted in the future, regardless of merit. We may not be aware of all such intellectual property rights potentially relating to our technology and product candidates and their uses, or we may incorrectly conclude that third party intellectual property is invalid or that our activities and product candidates do not infringe such intellectual property. Thus, we do not know with certainty that our technology and product candidates, or our development and commercialization thereof, do not and will not infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any third party’s intellectual property. Third parties may assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization. There may be third- party patents or patent applications with claims to materials, formulations or methods, such as methods of manufacture or methods for treatment, related to the discovery, use or manufacture of the product candidates that we may identify or related to our technologies. Because patent applications can take many years to issue, there may be currently pending patent applications which may later result in issued patents that the product candidates that we may identify may infringe. In addition, third parties may obtain patents in the future and claim that use of our technologies infringes upon these patents. Moreover, as noted above, there may be existing patents that we are not aware of or that we have incorrectly concluded are invalid or not infringed by our activities. If any third-party patents were held by a court of competent jurisdiction to cover, for example, the manufacturing process of the product candidates that we may identify, any molecules formed during the manufacturing process or any final product itself, the holders of any such patents may be able to block our ability to commercialize such product candidate unless we obtained a license under the applicable patents, or until such patents expire. 34 Generally, conducting clinical trials and other development activities in the United States is not considered an act of infringement. If and when products are approved by the FDA, that certain third party may then seek to enforce its patents by filing a patent infringement lawsuit against us or our licensee(s). In such lawsuit, we or our licensees may incur substantial expenses defending our rights or our licensees’ rights to commercialize such product candidates, and in connection with such lawsuit and under certain circumstances, it is possible that we or our licensees could be required to cease or delay the commercialization of a product candidate and/or be required to pay monetary damages or other amounts, including royalties on the sales of such products. Moreover, any such lawsuit may also consume substantial time and resources of our management team and board of directors. The threat or consequences of such a lawsuit may also result in royalty and other monetary obligations being imposed on us, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Parties making claims against us may obtain injunctive or other equitable relief, which could effectively block our ability to further develop and commercialize the product candidates that we may identify. Defense of these claims, regardless of their merit, would involve substantial litigation expense and would be a substantial diversion of employee resources from our business. In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us, we may have to pay substantial damages, including treble damages and attorneys’ fees for willful infringement, pay royalties, redesign our infringing products or obtain one or more licenses from third parties, which may be impossible or require substantial time and monetary expenditure. We may choose to take a license or, if we are found to infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate a third party’s intellectual property rights, we could also be required to obtain a license from such third party to continue developing, manufacturing and marketing our technology and product candidates. However, we may not be able to obtain any required license on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Even if we were able to obtain a license, it could be non-exclusive, thereby giving our competitors and other third parties access to the same technologies licensed to us and could require us to make substantial licensing and royalty payments. We could be forced, including by court order, to cease developing, manufacturing and commercializing the infringing technology or product. In addition, we could be found liable for significant monetary damages, including treble damages and attorneys’ fees, if we are found to have willfully infringed a patent or other intellectual property right and could be forced to indemnify our customers or collaborators. A finding of infringement could prevent us from commercializing our product candidates or force us to cease some of our business operations, which could materially harm our business. In addition, we may be forced to redesign our product candidates, seek new regulatory approvals and indemnify third parties pursuant to contractual agreements. Claims that we have misappropriated the confidential information or trade secrets of third parties could have a similar material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. If product liability lawsuits are brought against us, we may incur substantial liabilities and may be required to limit commercialization of our product candidates. We face an inherent risk of product liability as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidates and will face an even greater risk if we commercialize any products. For example, we may be sued if our product candidates cause or are perceived to cause injury or are found to be otherwise unsuitable during clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidates. Even a successful defense would require significant financial and management resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● decreased demand for our products; injury to our reputation; withdrawal of clinical trial participants and inability to continue clinical trials; initiation of investigations by regulators; costs to defend the related litigation; a diversion of management’s time and our resources; substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients; product recalls, withdrawals or labeling, marketing or promotional restrictions; 35 ● ● ● ● loss of revenue; exhaustion of any available insurance and our capital resources; the inability to commercialize any product candidate; and a decline in our share price. Because most of our products have not reached commercial stage, we do not currently need to carry clinical trial or extensive product liability insurance. In the future, our inability to obtain additional sufficient product liability insurance at an acceptable cost to protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of products we develop, alone or with collaborators. Such insurance policies may also have various exclusions, and we may be subject to a product liability claim for which we have no coverage. It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us, our officers and directors and the foreign persons named in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in the United States or in foreign countries, or to assert U.S. securities laws claims in foreign countries or serve process on our officers and directors and these experts. While we are incorporated in the State of Nevada, currently a majority of our directors and executive officers are not residents of the United States, and the foreign persons named in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are located outside of the United States. The majority of our assets are located outside the United States. Therefore, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to enforce a U.S. court judgment based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us or any of these persons in a U.S. or foreign court, or to effect service of process upon these persons in the United States. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in foreign countries in which we operate. Foreign courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws on the grounds that foreign countries are not necessary the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. Even if a foreign court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that foreign 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 proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by foreign countries law. There is little binding case law in foreign countries addressing the matters described above. We may be subject to numerous and varying privacy and security laws, and our failure to comply could result in penalties and reputational damage. We are subject to laws and regulations covering data privacy and the protection of personal information, including health information. The legislative and regulatory landscape for privacy and data protection continues to evolve, and there has been an increasing focus on privacy and data protection issues which may affect our business. In the U.S., numerous federal and state laws and regulations, including state security breach notification laws, state health information privacy laws, and federal and state consumer protection laws, govern the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of personal information. Each of these laws is subject to varying interpretations by courts and government agencies, creating complex compliance issues for us. If we fail to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we could be subject to penalties or sanctions, including criminal penalties if we knowingly obtain or disclose individually identifiable health information from a covered entity in a manner that is not authorized or permitted by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HIPAA. Numerous other countries have, or are developing, laws governing the collection, use and transmission of personal information as well. The EU and other jurisdictions have adopted data protection laws and regulations, which impose significant compliance obligations. In the EU, for example, effective May 25, 2018, the GDPR replaced the prior EU Data Protection Directive (95/46) that governed the processing of personal data in the European Union. The GDPR imposes significant obligations on controllers and processors of personal data, including, as compared to the prior directive, higher standards for obtaining consent from individuals to process their personal data, more robust notification requirements to individuals about the processing of their personal data, a strengthened individual data rights regime, mandatory data breach notifications, limitations on the retention of personal data and increased requirements pertaining to health data, and strict rules and restrictions on the transfer of personal data outside of the EU, including to the U.S. The GDPR also imposes additional obligations on, and required contractual provisions to be included in, contracts between companies subject to the GDPR and their third-party processors that relate to the processing of personal data. The GDPR allows EU member states to make additional laws and regulations further limiting the processing of genetic, biometric or health data. 36 Adoption of the GDPR increased our responsibility and liability in relation to personal data that we process and may require us to put in place additional mechanisms to ensure compliance. Any failure to comply with the requirements of GDPR and applicable national data protection laws of EU member states, could lead to regulatory enforcement actions and significant administrative and/or financial penalties against us (fines of up to Euro 20,000,000 or up to 4% of the total worldwide annual turnover of the preceding financial year, whichever is higher), and could adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. We are increasingly dependent on information technology and our systems and infrastructure face certain risks, including cybersecurity and data storage risks. Significant disruptions to our information technology systems or breaches of information security could adversely affect our business. In the ordinary course of business, we collect, store and transmit confidential information, and it is critical that we do so in a secure manner in order to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of such confidential information. Our information technology systems are potentially vulnerable to service interruptions and security breaches from inadvertent or intentional actions by our employees, partners, vendors, or from attacks by malicious third parties. Maintaining the secrecy of this confidential, proprietary, and/or trade secret information is important to our competitive business position. While we have taken steps to protect such information and invested in information technology, there can be no assurance that our efforts will prevent service interruptions or security breaches in our systems or the unauthorized or inadvertent wrongful access or disclosure of confidential information that could adversely affect our business operations or result in the loss, dissemination, or misuse of critical or sensitive information. A breach of our security measures or the accidental loss, inadvertent disclosure, unapproved dissemination or misappropriation or misuse of trade secrets, proprietary information, or other confidential information, whether as a result of theft, hacking, or other forms of deception, or for any other cause, could enable others to produce competing products, use our proprietary technology and/or adversely affect our business position. Further, any such interruption, security breach, loss or disclosure of confidential information could result in financial, legal, business, and reputational harm to us and could have a material effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flow. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop in-house sales and commercial distribution capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third-party collaborators to successfully commercialize any product in the United States or overseas, and as a result, we may not be able to generate product revenue. A variety of risks associated with operating our business internationally could materially adversely affect our business. We plan to seek regulatory approval of our product candidates outside of the United States and, accordingly, we expect that we, and any potential collaborators in those jurisdictions, will be subject to additional risks related to operating in foreign countries, including: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● differing regulatory requirements in foreign countries, unexpected changes in tariffs, trade barriers, price and exchange controls, and other regulatory requirements; economic weakness, including inflation, or political instability in particular foreign economies and markets; compliance with tax, employment, immigration, and labor laws for employees living or traveling abroad; foreign taxes, including withholding of payroll taxes; foreign currency fluctuations, which could result in increased operating expenses and reduced revenue, and other obligations incident to doing business in another country; difficulties staffing and managing foreign operations; workforce uncertainty in countries where labor unrest is more common than in the United States; potential liability under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 or comparable foreign laws; challenges enforcing our contractual and intellectual property rights, especially in those foreign countries that do not respect and protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the United States; production shortages resulting from any events affecting raw material supply or manufacturing capabilities abroad; and business interruptions resulting from geo-political actions, including war, and terrorism or disease outbreaks (such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19, or the novel coronavirus). 37 These and other risks associated with our planned international operations may materially adversely affect our ability to attain or maintain profitable operations. If we are unable to integrate acquired businesses effectively, our operating results may be adversely affected. From time to time, we seek to expand our business through acquisitions. We may not be able to successfully integrate acquired businesses and, where desired, their product portfolios into ours, and therefore we may not be able to realize the intended benefits. If we fail to successfully integrate acquisitions or product portfolios, or if they fail to perform as we anticipate, our existing businesses and our revenue and operating results could be adversely affected. If the due diligence of the operations of acquired businesses performed by us and by third parties on our behalf is inadequate or flawed, or if we later discover unforeseen financial or business liabilities, acquired businesses and their assets may not perform as expected. Additionally, acquisitions could result in difficulties assimilating acquired operations and, where deemed desirable, transitioning overlapping products into a single product line and the diversion of capital and management’s attention away from other business issues and opportunities. The failure to integrate acquired businesses effectively may adversely impact our business, results of operations or financial condition. Risks Related to Our OMPULs We may not be able to operate our OMPULs in all cities or desired locations and the sizes and use of our laboratories in such OMPULs may be restricted due to zoning, environmental, medical waste, or other licensing regulations. We may be subject to local zoning ordinances or other similar restrictions that may limit where the OMPULs can be located and the extent of their size and use. In addition, international, federal, state and local environmental and other administrative and licensing regulations could restrict the ability of the OMPULs to connect with local power, water, sewer, and other infrastructure. Our success depends on our ability to develop and roll out our OMPULs which may become more difficult or more expensive by such applicable regulations. Changes in any of these regulations could require us to close or move our OMPULs which would affect our ability to conduct and grow our business. If our existing OMPULs facilities become damaged or inoperable or if we are required to vacate our existing facilities, our ability to perform our tests and pursue our research and development efforts may be jeopardized. We currently perform a majority of tests relating to our POCare Services out of our OMPULs. Our facilities and equipment could be harmed or rendered inoperable by natural or man-made disasters, including war, fire, earthquake, power loss, communications failure or terrorism, which may render it difficult or impossible for us to operate for some period of time. In addition, since there is no lengthy history of use of OMPULs and the OMPULs are still in the development stage, we are unable to predict the normal wear and tear on such OMPULs or how many years each OMPUL will remain operational. The inability to perform our tests or to reduce the backlog that could develop if our facilities are inoperable, for even a short period of time, may result in the loss of customers or harm to our reputation, and we may be unable to regain those customers or repair our reputation. Furthermore, our OMPUL facilities and the equipment we use to perform our research and development work could be unavailable or costly and time-consuming to repair or replace. It would be difficult, time-consuming and expensive to rebuild our facilities, or to locate and qualify new facilities. We carry insurance for damage to our property and disruption of our business, but this insurance may not cover all of the risks associated with damage or disruption to our facility and business, may not provide coverage in amounts sufficient to cover our potential losses and may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. 38 Changes in the price and availability of our raw materials could be detrimental to our OMPUL operations. Supply chain issues, including limited supply of certain raw material or supply interruptions, delays or shortages of material may disrupt our daily operations as the OMPULs may be unable to retain an inventory of materials required to maintain operations or to build or repair OMPULs. We are dependent on skilled human capital for our OMPULs. Our ability to innovate and execute is dependent on the ability to hire, replace, and train skilled personnel. The employment market suffers from shortage of candidates that may continue in future years and cause delays and inabilities to execute our plans. Additionally, based on current trends in the US labor market, there could be a shortage of available trained staff for the OMPULs in the United States. Staff retention could also be a significant operational issue. If we are unable to successfully secure our locations and premises, we may be unable to operate out of our OMPULs or keep our employees and laboratory equipment safe. In certain cities and urban markets, homelessness, rising crime rates and decreased police funding, could impact the security of the OMPULs and the safety of employees and patients. If we are unable to successfully secure our OMPULs, our research and development could be negatively impacted. Our OMPULs are operated in a heavily regulated industry, and changes in regulations or violations of regulations may, directly or indirectly, reduce our revenue, adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition, and harm our business. The clinical laboratory testing industry is highly regulated, and there can be no assurance that the regulatory environment in which we operate will not change significantly and adversely to us in the future. Areas of the regulatory environment that may affect our ability to conduct our OMPUL business include, without limitation: ● ● ● ● ● federal and state laws governing laboratory testing, including CLIA, and state licensing laws; federal and state laws and enforcement policies governing the development, use and distribution of diagnostic medical devices, including laboratory developed tests, or LDTs; federal, state and local laws governing the handling and disposal of medical and hazardous waste; federal and state Occupational Safety and Health Administration rules and regulations; and European Union GMP approvals, which may be delayed because of the use OMPULs which could then delay manufacturing for clinical trials. Risks Related to Our Trans-Differentiation Technologies for Diabetes and the THM License Agreement THM is entitled to cancel the THM License Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the THM License Agreement with THM, Orgenesis Ltd, the Israeli Subsidiary, must develop, manufacture, sell and market the products pursuant to the milestones and time schedule specified in the development plan. In the event the Israeli Subsidiary fails to fulfill the terms of the development plan under the THM License Agreement, THM shall be entitled to terminate the THM License Agreement by providing the Israeli Subsidiary with written notice of such a breach and if the Israeli Subsidiary does not cure such breach within one year of receiving the notice. THM may also terminate the THM License Agreement if the Israeli Subsidiary breaches an obligation contained in the THM License Agreement and does not cure it within 180 days of receiving notice of the breach. We also run the risk that THM may attempt cancel or, at the very least challenge, the License Agreement with the Israeli Subsidiary as we continue to expand our focus to other therapies and business activities. While we have not received any notice of cancellation of the THM License Agreement, we have received an allegation regarding the scope of the rights by THM that may present future challenges for our Israeli Subsidiary to continue to develop, manufacture, sell and market the products pursuant to the milestones and time schedule specified in the development plan of the THM License Agreement. In addition, THM has filed a complaint against us in the Tel Aviv District Court relating to the scope of such THM license and the royalties and other payments that THM is entitled to thereunder. See “Legal Proceedings” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such complaint may lead to further risk of cancellation of the THM License Agreement. 39 The Israeli Subsidiary is a licensed technology that demonstrates the capacity to induce a shift in the developmental fate of cells from the liver and differentiating (converting) them into “pancreatic beta cell-like” insulin-producing cells for patients with diabetes. Our intention is to develop our technology to the clinical stage for regeneration of functional insulin-producing cells, thus enabling normal glucose regulated insulin secretion, via cell therapy. By using therapeutic agents that efficiently convert a sub- population of liver cells into pancreatic islets phenotype and function, this approach allows the diabetic patient to be the donor of his/her own therapeutic tissue and to start producing his/her own insulin in a glucose-responsive manner, thereby eliminating the need for insulin injections. Because this is a new approach to treating diabetes, developing and commercializing our product candidates subjects us to a number of challenges, including: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● obtaining regulatory approval regulatory authorities that have very limited experience with the commercial development of the trans-differentiating technology for diabetes; developing and deploying consistent and reliable processes for engineering a patient’s liver cells ex vivo and infusing the engineered cells back into the patient; developing processes for the safe administration of these products, including long-term follow-up for all patients who receive our products; sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our products; developing a manufacturing process and distribution network with a cost of goods that allows for an attractive return on investment; establishing sales and marketing capabilities after obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance; and maintaining a system of post marketing surveillance and risk assessment programs to identify adverse events that did not appear during the drug approval process. Risks Related to Development and Regulatory Approval of Our Therapies and Product Candidates Research and development of biopharmaceutical products is inherently risky. We may not be successful in our efforts to use and enhance our technology platform to create a pipeline of product candidates and develop commercially successful products. Furthermore, we may expend our limited resources on programs that do not yield a successful product candidate and fail to capitalize on product candidates or diseases that may be more profitable or for which there is a greater likelihood of success. If we fail to develop additional product candidates, our commercial opportunity will be limited. Even if we are successful in continuing to build our pipeline, obtaining regulatory approvals and commercializing additional product candidates will require substantial additional funding and are prone to the risks of failure inherent in medical product development. Investment in biopharmaceutical product development involves significant risk that any potential product candidate will fail to demonstrate adequate efficacy or an acceptable safety profile, gain regulatory approval, and become commercially viable. We cannot provide you any assurance that we will be able to successfully advance any of these additional product candidates through the development process. Our research programs may initially show promise in identifying potential product candidates, yet fail to yield product candidates for clinical development or commercialization for many reasons, including the following: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● our platform may not be successful in identifying additional product candidates; we may not be able or willing to assemble sufficient resources to acquire or discover additional product candidates; our product candidates may not succeed in preclinical or clinical testing; a product candidate may on further study be shown to have harmful side effects or other characteristics that indicate it is unlikely to be effective or otherwise does not meet applicable regulatory criteria; competitors may develop alternatives that render our product candidates obsolete or less attractive; product candidates we develop may nevertheless be covered by third parties’ patents or other exclusive rights; the market for a product candidate may change during our program so that the continued development of that product candidate is no longer reasonable; a product candidate may not be capable of being produced in commercial quantities at an acceptable cost, or at all; and a product candidate may not be accepted as safe and effective by patients, the medical community or third- party payers, if applicable. 40 If any of these events occur, we may be forced to abandon our development efforts for a program or programs, or we may not be able to identify, discover, develop, or commercialize additional product candidates, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and could potentially cause us to cease operations. Extensive industry regulation has had, and will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, especially our product development, manufacturing and distribution capabilities. All pharmaceutical companies are subject to extensive, complex, costly and evolving government regulation. For the U.S., this is principally administered by the FDA and to a lesser extent by the Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”) and state government agencies, as well as by varying regulatory agencies in foreign countries where products or product candidates are being manufactured and/or marketed. The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Controlled Substances Act and other federal statutes and regulations, and similar foreign statutes and regulations, govern or influence the testing, manufacturing, packing, labeling, storing, record keeping, safety, approval, advertising, promotion, sale and distribution of our future products. Under these regulations, we may become subject to periodic inspection of our facilities, procedures and operations and/or the testing of our future products by the FDA, the DEA and other authorities, which conduct periodic inspections to confirm that we are in compliance with all applicable regulations. In addition, the FDA and foreign regulatory agencies conduct pre-approval and post- approval reviews and plant inspections to determine whether our systems and processes are in compliance with current GMP and other regulations. Following such inspections, the FDA or other agency may issue observations, notices, citations and/or warning letters that could cause us to modify certain activities identified during the inspection. FDA guidelines specify that a warning letter is issued only for violations of “regulatory significance” for which the failure to adequately and promptly achieve correction may be expected to result in an enforcement action. We may also be required to report adverse events associated with our future products to FDA and other regulatory authorities. Unexpected or serious health or safety concerns would result in labeling changes, recalls, market withdrawals or other regulatory actions. The range of possible sanctions includes, among others, FDA issuance of adverse publicity, product recalls or seizures, fines, total or partial suspension of production and/or distribution, suspension of the FDA’s review of product applications, enforcement actions, injunctions, and civil or criminal prosecution. Any such sanctions, if imposed, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flows. Under certain circumstances, the FDA also has the authority to revoke previously granted drug approvals. Similar sanctions as detailed above may be available to the FDA under a consent decree, depending upon the actual terms of such decree. If internal compliance programs do not meet regulatory agency standards or if compliance is deemed deficient in any significant way, it could materially harm our business. The European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) will regulate our future products in Europe. Regulatory approval by the EMA will be subject to the evaluation of data relating to the quality, efficacy and safety of our future products for its proposed use. The time taken to obtain regulatory approval varies between countries. Different regulators may impose their own requirements and may refuse to grant, or may require additional data before granting, an approval, notwithstanding that regulatory approval may have been granted by other regulators. Regulatory approval may be delayed, limited or denied for a number of reasons, including insufficient clinical data, the product not meeting safety or efficacy requirements or any relevant manufacturing processes or facilities not meeting applicable requirements. Further trials and other costly and time-consuming assessments of the product may be required to obtain or maintain regulatory approval. Medicinal products are generally subject to lengthy and rigorous pre-clinical and clinical trials and other extensive, costly and time-consuming procedures mandated by regulatory authorities. We may be required to conduct additional trials beyond those currently planned, which could require significant time and expense. In addition, even after the technology approval, both in the U.S. and Europe, we will be required to maintain post marketing surveillance of potential adverse and risk assessment programs to identify adverse events that did not appear during the clinical studies and drug approval process. All of the foregoing could require an investment of significant time and expense. 41 We have generated limited revenue from therapeutic product sales, and our ability to generate any significant revenue from product sales and become profitable depends significantly on our success in a number of factors. We have a limited number of therapeutic products approved for commercial sale, and we have generated only limited revenue from product sales. Our ability to generate revenue of more significant scale and achieve profitability depends significantly on our success in many factors, including: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● completing research regarding, and nonclinical and clinical development of, our product candidates; obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing authorizations for product candidates for which we complete clinical studies; developing a sustainable and scalable manufacturing process for our product candidates, including establishing and maintaining commercially viable supply relationships with third parties and establishing our own manufacturing capabilities and infrastructure; launching and commercializing product candidates for which we obtain regulatory approvals and marketing authorizations, either directly or with a collaborator or distributor; obtaining market acceptance of our product candidates as viable treatment options; addressing any competing technological and market developments; identifying, assessing, acquiring and/or developing new product candidates; negotiating favorable terms in any collaboration, licensing, or other arrangements into which we may enter; maintaining, protecting, and expanding our portfolio of intellectual property rights, including patents, trade secrets, and know-how; and attracting, hiring, and retaining qualified personnel. Even if more of the product candidates that we develop are approved for commercial sale, we anticipate incurring significant costs associated with commercializing any approved product candidate. Our expenses could increase beyond expectations if we are required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, or other regulatory agencies, domestic or foreign, to change our manufacturing processes or assays, or to perform clinical, nonclinical, or other types of studies in addition to those that we currently anticipate. If we are successful in obtaining regulatory approvals to market more of our product candidates, our revenue will be dependent, in part, upon the size of the markets in the territories for which we gain regulatory approval, the accepted price for the product, the ability to get reimbursement at any price, and whether we own the commercial rights for that territory. If the number of our addressable disease patients is not as significant as we estimate, the indication approved by regulatory authorities is narrower than we expect, or the reasonably accepted population for treatment is narrowed by competition, physician choice or treatment guidelines, we may not generate significant revenue from sales of such products, even if approved. If we are not able to generate revenue from the sale of any approved products, we may never become profitable. When we commence any clinical trials, we may not be able to conduct our trials on the timelines we expect. Clinical testing is expensive, time consuming, and subject to uncertainty. We cannot guarantee that any clinical studies will be conducted as planned or completed on schedule, if at all. We cannot be sure that we will be able to submit an IND, and we cannot be sure that submission of an IND will result in the FDA allowing clinical trials to begin. Moreover, even if these trials begin, issues may arise that could suspend or terminate such clinical trials. A failure of one or more clinical studies can occur at any stage of testing, and our future clinical studies may not be successful. Events that may prevent successful or timely completion of clinical development include: ● ● ● ● the inability to generate sufficient preclinical or other in vivo or in vitro data to support the initiation of clinical studies; delays in reaching a consensus with regulatory agencies on study design; delays in establishing CMC (Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls) which is a cornerstone in clinical study submission and later on, the regulatory approval; the FDA not allowing us to use the clinical trial data from a research institution to support an IND if we cannot demonstrate the comparability of our product candidates with the product candidate used by the relevant research institution in its clinical studies; 42 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● delays in obtaining required Institutional Review Board, or IRB, approval at each clinical study site; imposition of a temporary or permanent clinical hold by regulatory agencies for a number of reasons, including after review of an IND application or amendment, or equivalent application or amendment; a result of a new safety finding that presents unreasonable risk to clinical trial participants; a negative finding from an inspection of our clinical study operations or study sites; developments on trials conducted by competitors for related technology that raises FDA concerns about risk to patients of the technology broadly; if the FDA finds that the investigational protocol or plan is clearly deficient to meet its stated objectives; delays in recruiting suitable patients to participate in our clinical studies; difficulty collaborating with patient groups and investigators; failure to perform in accordance with the FDA’s current good clinical practices, or cGCPs, requirements, or applicable regulatory guidelines in other countries; delays in having patients complete participation in a study or return for post-treatment follow-up; patients dropping out of a study; occurrence of adverse events associated with the product candidate that are viewed to outweigh its potential benefits; changes in regulatory requirements and guidance that require amending or submitting new clinical protocols; changes in the standard of care on which a clinical development plan was based, which may require new or additional trials; the cost of clinical studies of our product candidates being greater than we anticipate; clinical studies of our product candidates producing negative or inconclusive results, which may result in our deciding, or regulators requiring us, to conduct additional clinical studies or abandon product development programs; and delays in manufacturing, testing, releasing, validating, or importing/exporting sufficient stable quantities of our product candidates for use in clinical studies or the inability to do any of the foregoing. Any inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us or impair our ability to generate revenue. In addition, if we make manufacturing or formulation changes to our product candidates, we may be required to, or we may elect to conduct additional studies to bridge our modified product candidates to earlier versions. Clinical study delays could also shorten any periods during which our products have patent protection and may allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do, which could impair our ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. Our clinical trial results may also not support approval, whether accelerated approval, conditional marketing authorizations, or regular approval. The results of preclinical and clinical studies may not be predictive of the results of later-stage clinical trials, and product candidates in later stages of clinical trials may fail to show the desired safety and efficacy despite having progressed through preclinical studies and initial clinical trials. In addition, our product candidates could fail to receive regulatory approval for many reasons, including the following: ● ● ● ● ● ● the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may disagree with the design or implementation of our clinical trials; the population studied in the clinical program may not be sufficiently broad or representative to assure safety in the full population for which we seek approval; we may be unable to demonstrate that our product candidates’ risk-benefit ratios for their proposed indications are acceptable; the results of clinical trials may not meet the level of statistical significance required by the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities for approval; we may be unable to demonstrate that the clinical and other benefits of our product candidates outweigh their safety risks; the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may disagree with our interpretation of data from preclinical studies or clinical trials; 43 ● ● ● the data collected from clinical trials of our product candidates may not be sufficient to the satisfaction of the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities to obtain regulatory approval in the United States or elsewhere; the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may fail to approve the manufacturing processes, our own manufacturing facilities, or our third-party manufacturers’ facilities with which we contract for clinical and commercial supplies; and the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities may significantly change in a manner rendering our clinical data insufficient for approval. Further, failure to obtain approval for any of the above reasons may be made more likely by the fact that the FDA and other regulatory authorities have very limited experience with commercial development of our cell therapy for the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes. Our product candidates may cause undesirable side effects or have other properties that could halt their clinical development, prevent their regulatory approval, limit their commercial potential, or result in significant negative consequences. As with most biological drug products, use of our product candidates could be associated with side effects or adverse events which can vary in severity from minor reactions to death and in frequency from infrequent to prevalent. Any of these occurrences may materially and adversely harm our business, financial condition and prospects. Our product candidates are biologics, and the manufacture of our product candidates is complex, and we may encounter difficulties in production, particularly with respect to process development or scaling-out of our manufacturing capabilities. If we encounter such difficulties, our ability to provide supply of our product candidates for clinical trials or our products for patients, if approved, could be delayed or stopped, or we may be unable to maintain a commercially viable cost structure. Our product candidates are biologics and the process of manufacturing our products is complex, highly regulated and subject to multiple risks. As a result of the complexities, the cost to manufacture biologics is generally higher than traditional small molecule chemical compounds, and the manufacturing process is less reliable and is more difficult to reproduce. Our manufacturing process will be susceptible to product loss or failure due to logistical issues associated with the collection of liver cells, or starting material, from the patient, shipping such material to the manufacturing site, shipping the final product back to the patient, and infusing the patient with the product, manufacturing issues associated with the differences in patient starting materials, interruptions in the manufacturing process, contamination, equipment or reagent failure, improper installation or operation of equipment, vendor or operator error, inconsistency in cell growth, failures in process testing and variability in product characteristics. Even minor deviations from normal manufacturing processes could result in reduced production yields, product defects, and other supply disruptions. If for any reason we lose a patient’s starting material or later- developed product at any point in the process, the manufacturing process for that patient will need to be restarted and the resulting delay may adversely affect that patient’s outcome. If microbial, viral, or other contaminations are discovered in our product candidates or in the manufacturing facilities in which our product candidates are made, such manufacturing facilities may need to be closed for an extended period of time to investigate and remedy the contamination. Because our product candidates are manufactured for each particular patient, we will be required to maintain a chain of identity and tractability of all reagents and viruses involved in the process with respect to materials as they move from the patient to the manufacturing facility, through the manufacturing process, and back to the patient. Maintaining such a chain of identity is difficult and complex, and failure to do so could result in adverse patient outcomes, loss of product, or regulatory action including withdrawal of our products from the market. Further, as product candidates are developed through preclinical to late-stage clinical trials towards approval and commercialization, it is common that various aspects of the development program, such as manufacturing methods, are altered along the way in an effort to optimize processes and results. Such changes carry the risk that they will not achieve these intended objectives, and any of these changes could cause our product candidates to perform differently and affect the results of planned clinical trials or other future clinical trials. 44 Although we are working to develop commercially viable processes, doing so is a difficult and uncertain task, and there are risks associated with scaling to the level required for advanced clinical trials or commercialization, including, among others, cost overruns, potential problems with process scale-out, process reproducibility, stability issues, lot consistency, and timely availability of reagents or raw materials. We may ultimately be unable to reduce the cost of goods for our product candidates to levels that will allow for an attractive return on investment if and when those product candidates are commercialized. In addition, the manufacturing process for any products that we may develop is subject to FDA and foreign regulatory authority approval process, and we will need to contract with manufacturers who can meet all applicable FDA and foreign regulatory authority requirements on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to reliably produce products to specifications acceptable to the FDA or other regulatory authorities, we may not obtain or maintain the approvals we need to commercialize such products. Even if we obtain regulatory approval for any of our product candidates, there is no assurance that either we or our subsidiaries and joint ventures will be able to manufacture the approved product to specifications acceptable to the FDA or other regulatory authorities, to produce it in sufficient quantities to meet the requirements for the potential launch of the product, or to meet potential future demand. Any of these challenges could delay completion of clinical trials, require bridging clinical trials or the repetition of one or more clinical trials, increase clinical trial costs, delay approval of our product candidate, impair commercialization efforts, increase our cost of goods, and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. The manufacture of biological drug products is complex and requires significant expertise and capital investment, including the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and process controls. Manufacturers of biologic products often encounter difficulties in production, particularly in scaling up or out, validating the production process, and assuring high reliability of the manufacturing process (including the absence of contamination). These problems include logistics and shipping, difficulties with production costs and yields, quality control, including stability of the product, product testing, operator error, availability of qualified personnel, as well as compliance with strictly enforced federal, state and foreign regulations. Furthermore, if contaminants are discovered in our supply of our product candidates or in the manufacturing facilities, such manufacturing facilities may need to be closed for an extended period of time to investigate and remedy the contamination. We cannot assure you that any stability failures or other issues relating to the manufacture of our product candidates will not occur in the future. Additionally, our manufacturers may experience manufacturing difficulties due to resource constraints or as a result of labor disputes or unstable political environments. If our manufacturers were to encounter any of these difficulties, or otherwise fail to comply with their contractual obligations, our ability to provide our product candidate to patients in clinical trials would be jeopardized. Any delay or interruption in the supply of clinical trial supplies could delay the completion of clinical trials, increase the costs associated with maintaining clinical trial programs and, depending upon the period of delay, require us to begin new clinical trials at additional expense or terminate clinical trials completely. Cell-based therapies rely on the availability of reagents, specialized equipment, and other specialty materials, which may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. For some of these reagents, equipment, and materials, we rely or may rely on sole source vendors or a limited number of vendors, which could impair our ability to manufacture and supply our products. Manufacturing our product candidates will require many reagents and viruses, which are substances used in our manufacturing processes to bring about chemical or biological reactions, and other specialty materials and equipment, some of which are manufactured or supplied by small companies with limited resources and experience to support commercial biologics production. We currently depend on a limited number of vendors for certain materials and equipment used in the manufacture of our product candidates. Some of these suppliers may not have the capacity to support commercial products manufactured under GMP by biopharmaceutical firms or may otherwise be ill-equipped to support our needs. We also do not have supply contracts with many of these suppliers and may not be able to obtain supply contracts with them on acceptable terms or at all. Accordingly, we may experience delays in receiving key materials and equipment to support clinical or commercial manufacturing. For some of these reagents, viruses, equipment, and materials, we rely and may in the future rely on sole source vendors or a limited number of vendors. An inability to continue to source product from any of these suppliers, which could be due to regulatory actions or requirements affecting the supplier, adverse financial or other strategic developments experienced by a supplier, labor disputes or shortages, unexpected demands, or quality issues, could adversely affect our ability to satisfy demand for our product candidates, which could adversely and materially affect our product sales and operating results or our ability to conduct clinical trials, either of which could significantly harm our business. 45 As we continue to develop and scale our manufacturing process, we expect that we will need to obtain rights to and supplies of certain materials and equipment to be used as part of that process. We may not be able to obtain rights to such materials on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, and if we are unable to alter our process in a commercially viable manner to avoid the use of such materials or find a suitable substitute, it would have a material adverse effect on our business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to further develop in-house sales and commercial distribution capabilities or establish or maintain relationships with third-party collaborators to successfully commercialize any product in the United States or overseas, and as a result, we may not be able to generate product revenue. A variety of risks associated with operating our business internationally could materially adversely affect our business. We plan to seek regulatory approval of our product candidates outside of the United States and, accordingly, we expect that we, and any potential collaborators in those jurisdictions, will be subject to additional risks related to operating in foreign countries, including: ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● differing regulatory requirements in foreign countries, unexpected changes in tariffs, trade barriers, price and exchange controls, and other regulatory requirements; economic weakness, including inflation, or political instability in particular foreign economies and markets; compliance with tax, employment, immigration, and labor laws for employees living or traveling abroad; foreign taxes, including withholding of payroll taxes; foreign currency fluctuations, which could result in increased operating expenses and reduced revenue, and other obligations incident to doing business in another country; difficulties staffing and managing foreign operations; workforce uncertainty in countries where labor unrest is more common than in the United States; potential liability under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 or comparable foreign laws; challenges enforcing our contractual and intellectual property rights, especially in those foreign countries that do not respect and protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the United States; production shortages resulting from any events affecting raw material supply or manufacturing capabilities abroad; and business interruptions resulting from geo-political actions, including war and terrorism. These and other risks associated with our planned international operations may materially adversely affect our ability to attain or maintain profitable operations. We face significant competition from other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and our operating results will suffer if we fail to compete effectively. The biopharmaceutical industry, and the rapidly evolving market for developing cell-based therapies is characterized by intense competition and rapid innovation. Our competitors may be able to develop other compounds or drugs that are able to achieve similar or better results. Our potential competitors include major multinational pharmaceutical companies, established biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies, universities, and other research institutions. Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and other resources, such as larger research and development staff and experienced marketing and manufacturing organizations as well as established sales forces. Smaller or early-stage companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with large, established companies. Mergers and acquisitions in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries may result in even more resources being concentrated in our competitors. Competition may increase further as a result of advances in the commercial applicability of technologies and greater availability of capital for investment in these industries. Our competitors, either alone or with collaborative partners, may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing on an exclusive basis drug or biologic products that are more effective, safer, more easily commercialized, or less costly than our product candidates or may develop proprietary technologies or secure patent protection that we may need for the development of our technologies and products. 46 We are highly dependent on our key personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting, motivating and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy. Our ability to compete in the highly competitive biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries depends upon our ability to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified managerial, scientific and medical personnel. We are highly dependent on our senior management, particularly our Chief Executive Officer, Vered Caplan. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers, other key employees, and other scientific and medical advisors, and our inability to find suitable replacements, could result in delays in product development and harm our business. Competition for skilled personnel is intense and the turnover rate can be high, which may limit our ability to hire and retain highly qualified personnel on acceptable terms or at all. To induce valuable employees to remain at our company, in addition to salary and cash incentives, we have provided stock option grants that vest over time. The value to employees of these equity grants that vest over time may be significantly affected by movements in our stock price that are beyond our control and may at any time be insufficient to counteract more lucrative offers from other companies. Although we have employment agreements with our key employees, most these employment agreements provide for at-will employment, which means that any of our employees could leave our employment at any time, with or without notice. We do not maintain “key man” insurance policies on the lives of all of these individuals or the lives of any of our other employees. Risks Related to the Metalmark Investment Morgenesis may not receive the future payments pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement with MM OS Holdings, L.P. (“MM”), an affiliate of Metalmark Capital Partners. The Unit Purchase Agreement between us and MM (the “UPA”) requires MM to make up to two additional payments to Morgenesis if certain specified Net Revenue targets (as defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement) are satisfied by Morgenesis during each of years 2022 and 2023, as described in more detail below. For each of those fiscal years in which such specified Net Revenue targets are satisfied by Morgenesis, MM will be obligated to pay an additional $10 million to Morgenesis shortly after the end of that fiscal year. If (a) Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate Net Revenue (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $30,000,000 during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2022 (the “First Milestone”) and/or equal to or greater than $50,000,000 during the twelve month period ending December 31 2023 (the “Second Milestone”), and (b) our shareholders approve the LLC Agreement Terms (as defined below under “Principal Terms of the LLC Agreement”) on the earlier of (x) the date that is seven (7) months following the initial closing date and (y) the date of our 2023 annual meeting of shareholders (such Orgenesis stockholder approval hereafter being the “Orgenesis Stockholder Approval” and such Orgenesis Stockholder Approval deadline hereafter being the “Stockholder Approval Deadline”), in accordance with applicable law and in a manner that will ensure that MM is able to exercise its rights under the LLC Agreement (as defined below) without any further action or approval by MM, then MM will pay up to $10,000,000 in cash in exchange for 1,000,000 additional Class A Units if the First Milestone is achieved and $10,000,000 in cash in exchange for 1,000,000 Class B Units Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class B Units”) if the Second Milestone is achieved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the First Milestone is not achieved, but Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate Net Revenue equal or greater to $13,000,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2023, then MM shall make the first $10,000,000 future investment for 1,000,000 Class A Units described above. In the event we fail to obtain Orgenesis Stockholder Approval by the Stockholder Approval Deadline, we will not be entitled to receive (but MM may, in its sole discretion, elect to make) the first $10,000,000 future investment or the second future $10,000,000 investment. In addition, at any time until the consummation of a Company IPO or Change of Control of Morgenesis (in each case, as defined in the LLC Agreement), MM may, in its sole discretion, elect to invest up to an additional $60,000,000 in Morgenesis (any such investment, an “Optional Investment”) in exchange for certain Class C Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class C Units” and, together with the Class A Units and the Class B Units, the “Preferred Units”). $10,000,000 of such Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C-1 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $125,000,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time; $25,000,000 of Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C-2 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $156,250,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time; and $25,000,000 of Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C-3 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $250,000,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time. Further, if, during the twelve month period ending on December 31, 2023, Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate (i) Net Revenue (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $70,000,000, (ii) Gross Profit (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $35,000,000 and (iii) EBITDA (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $10,000,000, then MM shall make (or cause to be made) a one-time cash payment of $10,000,000 to the Company upon such payment becoming final and binding pursuant to the UPA (the “Earnout Payment”). 47 Accordingly, if our stockholders do not approve the LLC Agreement Terms and do not meet the applicable Net Revenue, Gross Profit or EBITDA targets, Morgenesis will not be eligible to receive the future payments from MM. Further, MM may choose not to make any of the Optional Investments. In addition, under certain circumstances, MM will obtain the right to put to us (or, at our discretion, to Morgenesis if Morgenesis shall then have the funds available to consummate the transaction) its shares in Morgenesis. MM may force the sale of Morgenesis under certain conditions which may result in MM receiving a greater value than us and our shareholders. At any time following the earliest to occur of (x) prior to the two year anniversary of the initial closing date under the UPA (the “Initial Two Year Period”) or a Material Governance Event (as defined in the LLC Agreement), if MM and we approve a sale of Morgenesis or (y) (i) after the Initial Two Year Period or (ii) after the occurrence of a Material Governance Event, if MM or the Morgenesis Board by Supermajority Vote (as defined in the LLC Agreement) approves a Sale of Morgenesis (an “Approved Sale”), then, subject to notice, MM or Morgenesis can require the members of Morgenesis to sell their units in Morgenesis (the “Drag Along Rights”) to the purchaser in the Approved Sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we are entitled to advise Morgenesis and the Morgenesis Board of our election to be a potential acquiror of Morgenesis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if MM falls below 50% of its initial holdings in Morgenesis as specified above, then it is no longer entitled to exercise the Drag Along Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the three-year anniversary of the initial closing date (the “Initial Three-Year Period”), MM and Morgenesis will not be entitled to exercise the Drag Along Right unless the valuation of Morgenesis reflected in the sale is equal to or greater than $300,000,000. If we breach our obligation to effectuate an Approved Sale or otherwise the failure of an Approved Sale to be consummated is primarily attributable to our or our affiliates, then (i) the Morgenesis Board shall be appointed as follows: (a) one manager shall be appointed by us, (b) the Industry Expert Manager shall be appointed by MM and (c) three Managers shall be appointed by MM and (ii) MM will have the option to convert all of its Preferred Units into such number of Common Units (as defined below) that represents (on a post-conversion basis) the Applicable Percentage (as defined in the LLC Agreement) of all of the outstanding Common Units (including any Common Units to be issued to MM pursuant to this provision). While we have the right of first refusal with respect to acquiring Morgenesis in its entirety, if MM elects to exercise such a right and if we are not in the position to acquire Morgenesis, MM may cause the sale of Morgenesis to any third party on terms MM approves on an arm’s length basis pursuant to the Drag Along Right, subject to the conditions set forth above. If this occurs, we are contractually obligated to approve such a sale and execute any documents as required by MM. Based on this, there may be a situation where MM approves a sale that is more valuable or beneficial to MM than to our company and our shareholders, and we will not be able to prevent such a transaction. A sale of Morgenesis would have impacts to our POCare Services business as conducted through Morgenesis and to our overall value as a whole. MM may, under certain circumstances, assume control of the Board of Managers of our subsidiary, Morgenesis, which would result in our inability to control and direct the activities of such subsidiary. The initial board of managers of Morgenesis (the “Morgenesis Board”) is comprised of five (5) managers, three (3) of which were appointed by us, of which one must be an industry expert and will require prior reasonable consultation with MM, and two (2) by MM. If the equity holdings of each of us and MM fall below 25% of their initial holdings in Morgenesis as specified above, each will be entitled to appoint one less manager. If (i) at any time there is a Material Underperformance Event (as defined in the LLC Agreement), (ii) at any time there is a Material Governance Event, (iii) Morgenesis does not pay in full the aggregate Redemption Price (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to redeem on any Redemption Date (as defined in the LLC Agreement) all Preferred Units to be redeemed on such Redemption Date, (iv) Morgenesis or Orgenesis does not pay in full the aggregate price of the Put Option (as defined in the LLC Agreement), or (v) Orgenesis breaches its obligation to effectuate an Approved Sale (as defined below) or otherwise the failure of an Approved Sale to be consummated is primarily attributable to us or our affiliates, then the Morgenesis Board shall be appointed as follows: (a) one manager shall be appointed by us, (b) the Industry Expert Manager shall be appointed by MM and (c) three Managers shall be appointed by MM. 48 If this were to occur, MM would control the Board of Directors of Morgenesis and will be entitled to direct its activities and approve any transactions of Morgenesis, even if such transactions provide greater value to MM than they do to us and our shareholders. This lack of control could significantly impact our POCare service activities as conducted through Morgenesis and to our overall value as a whole. MM has the right to buy our units in Morgenesis upon the occurrence of certain events, which could result in us not holding any equity in Morgenesis. Upon the occurrence of either (i) a Material Governance Event or (ii) failure of our shareholders to approve the Specified Agreement Terms (as defined in the LLC Agreement) by the Stockholder Approval Deadline, MM is entitled, at its option, to put to us (or, at our discretion, to Morgenesis if we or Morgenesis shall then have the funds available to consummate the transaction) its units or, alternatively, purchase from us its units (such purchase right, being the “MM Call Option”). The purchase price for units of MM or us in Morgenesis under either the put right or the MM Call Option shall be equal to the fair market value of such units as determined by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm selected by MM in its sole discretion; provided, however, that in no event shall the Put Price with respect to Preferred Units be less than $10.00 per Class A Preferred Unit plus the Class A PIK Yield (as defined below) (the “Class A Preferred Unit Original Issue Price”), $10.00 per Class B Preferred Unit plus the Class B PIK Yield (as defined below) (the “Class B Preferred Unit Original Issue Price”) or the applicable price per Class C Preferred Unit as set forth in the LLC Agreement (the “Class C Preferred Unit Original Issue Price”), as applicable, to each Preferred Unit. In the event MM does exercise its right following the occurrence of any such event, we shall cease to be an equity owner of Morgenesis and will no longer derive any benefits from this subsidiary or its activities. This would also affect the POCare activities being conducted by us through Morgenesis and our overall value as a whole. We may be forced to redeem all of the units of Morgenesis held by MM, which could require substantial cash outlay and would adversely affect our financial position. Each holder of Preferred Units has the right to require Morgenesis to redeem its Preferred Units if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Preferred Units deliver written notice to Morgenesis (the “Redemption Request”) at any time after (i) the earlier of either (x) November 4, 2027 and (y) the failure to obtain the Orgenesis Stockholder Approval of the LLC Agreement Terms by the Stockholder Approval Deadline, and (ii) receipt by Morgenesis of an offer for a Change of Control from a third party purchaser that is not an affiliate of any unitholder at a valuation of no less than $300,000,000 which Morgenesis has not accepted and completed (the “Proposed Sale”). In the event a Redemption Request is delivered at any time following November 4, 2027, the price per Preferred Unit at which Morgenesis will redeem Preferred Units (the “Redemption Price”) will be equal to the applicable Preferred Liquidation Preference Amount (as defined in the LLC Agreement) determined as if a Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the LLC Agreement) had occurred on the date the Redemption Request is delivered and as determined by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm selected by MM in its sole discretion. In the event that a Redemption Request is delivered in connection with the failure to obtain the Orgenesis Stockholder Approval of the LLC Agreement Terms by the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Redemption Price will be equal to the applicable Preferred Liquidation Preference Amount that would have been paid for each Preferred Unit (based on the applicable class of Preferred Unit) if the Proposed Sale had been completed. Any such redemption would require us to expend substantial cash resources and could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. In addition, our cash reserves at the time of such redemption may be insufficient to satisfy such redemption, in which case we may not be able to continue as a going concern if we are unable to support our operations or cannot otherwise raise the necessary funds to support our operations. 49 If MM opts to exchange its Morgenesis units for shares of our common stock, we could potentially issue up to 5,106,596 shares of our common stock to MM, which may result in significant dilution to our existing stockholders. The LLC Agreement provides that MM is entitled, at any time, to convert its units in Morgenesis for our common stock (such exchange option being the “Stock Exchange Option”). Under the Stock Exchange Option, MM is entitled, at any time prior to July 1, 2025, to exchange its units in Morgenesis for our common stock (the “MM Exchange Right”). The amount of shares of common stock to be received by MM upon exercise of the MM Exchange Right shall be equal to (i) the fair market value of MM’s units to be exchanged, as determined by a nationally recognized independent accounting firm in the United States with experience in performing valuation services selected by MM and us, divided by (ii) the average closing price per share of our common stock during the 30-day period ending on the date on which MM provides an exchange notice to us (the “Exchange Price”); provided, that in no event shall (A) the Exchange Price be less than a price per share that would result in us having an enterprise value of less than $200,000,000 and (B) the maximum number of shares of our common stock to be issued pursuant to the MM Exchange Right exceed 5,106,596 shares of our common stock. If MM opts to exchange its Morgenesis units for shares of our common stock, we could potentially issue up to 5,106,596 shares of our common stock to MM. The common stock issuable to MM upon exchange of the Morgenesis units for our common stock could have a depressive effect on the market price of our common stock by increasing the number of shares of common stock outstanding and the proportionate voting power of the existing stockholders may be significantly diluted. If we issue additional shares in the future, it will result in the dilution of our existing stockholders. Risks Related to our Common Stock Our articles of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 145,833,334 shares of our common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Our Board of Directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more companies or products and to fund our overhead and general operating requirements. The issuance of any such shares will reduce the book value per share and may contribute to a reduction in the market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current stockholders. Further, such issuance may result in a change of control of our company. Our stock price and trading volume may be volatile, which could result in losses for our stockholders. The equity trading markets have recently experienced high volatility resulting in highly variable and unpredictable pricing of equity securities. If the turmoil in the equity trading markets continues, the market for our common stock could change in ways that may not be related to our business, our industry or our operating performance and financial condition. In addition, the trading volume in our common stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to occur. Some of the factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our common stock include: ● ● ● ● ● ● actual or anticipated quarterly variations in our operating results; changes in expectations as to our future financial performance or changes in financial estimates, if any; announcements relating to our business; conditions generally affecting the biotechnology industry; the success of our operating strategy; and the operating and stock performance of other comparable companies. Many of these factors are beyond our control, and we cannot predict their potential effects on the price of our common stock. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. During the 52 weeks ended December 31, 2022, our stock price has fluctuated from a low of $1.23 to a high of $3.74. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock. 50 No assurance can be provided that a purchaser of our common stock will be able to resell their shares of common stock at or above the price that they acquired those shares. We can provide no assurances that the market price of common stock will increase or that the market price of common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly. We do not intend to pay dividends on any investment in the shares of stock of our company. We have never paid any cash dividends, and currently do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. The Board of Directors has not directed the payment of any dividends and does not anticipate paying dividends on the shares for the foreseeable future and intends to retain any future earnings to the extent necessary to develop and expand our business. Payment of cash dividends, if any, will depend, among other factors, on our earnings, capital requirements, and the general operating and financial condition, and will be subject to legal limitations on the payment of dividends out of paid-in capital. Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in our company will need to come through an increase in the stock’s price. This may never happen, and investors may lose all of their investment in our company. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS Not applicable. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We do not own any real property. A description of the leased premises we utilize in several of our facilities is as follows: Entity Property Description Orgenesis Inc. ●Our principal office is located at 20271 Goldenrod Lane, Germantown, MD 20876.

We also believe that, if required, suitable alternative or additional space will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On January 18, 2022, a complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed in the Tel Aviv District Court (the “Court”) against the Company, the Israeli Subsidiary, Orgenesis Ltd., Prof. Sarah Ferber, Vered Caplan and Dr. Efrat Assa Kunik (collectively, the “defendants”) by plaintiffs the State of Israel, as the owner of Chaim Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer (“Sheba”), and Tel Hashomer Medical Research, Infrastructure and Services Ltd. (collectively, the “plaintiffs”). In the Complaint, the plaintiffs are seeking that the Court issue a declaratory remedy whereby the defendants are required to pay royalties to the plaintiffs at the rate of 7% of the sales and 24% of any and all revenues in consideration for sublicenses related to any product, service or process that contains know-how and technology of Sheba and any and all know-how and technology either developed or supervised by Prof. Ferber in the field of cell therapy, including in the category of the point-of-care platform and any and all services and products in relation to the defendants’ CDMO activity. In addition, the plaintiffs seek that the defendants provide financial statements and pay NIS 10 million to the plaintiffs due to the royalty provisions of the license agreement, dated February 2, 2012, between the Israeli Subsidiary and Tel Hashomer Medical Research, Infrastructure and Services Ltd. (the “License Agreement”). The Complaint alleges that the Company and the Israeli Subsidiary used know-how and technology of Sheba and know-how and technology either developed or supervised by Prof. Ferber while employed by Sheba in the field of cell therapy, including in the category of the point-of-care platform and the services and products in relation to the defendants’ CDMO activity and are entitled to the payment of certain royalties pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement. The defendants have filed their statements of defense responding to this Complaint. The Company believes that the allegations in this Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against the claims. Since a material loss is not considered probable, no provision was made in the financial statements. Except as described above, we are not involved in any pending material legal proceedings. ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Not applicable. PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Market Information Since March 13, 2018, our common stock has been listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq CM”) under the symbol “ORGS.” As of March 22, 2023, there were 305 holders of record of our common stock, and the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NasdaqCM on March 22, 2023 was $1.43. A significant number of shares of our common stock are held in either nominee name or street name brokerage accounts, and consequently, we are unable to determine the total number of beneficial owners of our common stock. Dividend Policy To date, we have paid no dividends on our common stock and do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain all earnings to provide funds for the operations of our company. In the future, our Board of Directors will decide whether to declare and pay dividends based upon our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors that our Board of Directors may consider relevant. We are not under any contractual restriction as to present or future ability to pay dividends. 52 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on October 23, 2023, the Company and Ricky Neumann that were parties to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2022 (the “SPA”) and the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2022 (the “RRA”), entered into an Amendment, Consent and Waiver Agreement (the “RRA Amendment”). Pursuant to the RRA Amendment, the Company and Neumann agreed that Neumann shall (i) consent and agree to an extension of the date for filing the Registration Statement to register the Registrable Securities (as defined in the RRA) to April 3, 2023 and the effective date of such Registration Statement as provided for in the RRA Amendment; and (ii) waive any potential damages or claims under the RRA with respect to the Company’s obligations under the RRA or SPA and release the Company therefrom. In consideration for such consent, agreement, waiver and release, the Company agreed to issue an additional warrant to purchase 174,460 shares of Common Stock to Neumann (the “Neumann Additional PIPE Warrant”) and such Neumann Additional PIPE Warrant shall have an exercise price of $2.50 per share of Common Stock, be exercisable beginning six months and one day after the Effective Date and end 36 months after the Effective Date and be in the same form as the original Warrants issued pursuant to the SPA. In connection with such RRA Amendment, an aggregate of 41,042 additional Warrants identical to the Neumann Additional PIPE Warrant were issued to the other investors under the SPA, who also agreed to become parties to the RRA Amendment. Such additional Warrants and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act and shall be exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction not involving a public offering. Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities On May 14, 2020, our Board of Directors approved the stock repurchase plan (the “Stock Repurchase Plan”) pursuant to which we may, from time to time, purchase up to $10 million of our outstanding shares of common stock. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or the open market, including pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans, and in accordance with applicable regulations of the SEC. The timing and exact amount of any repurchases will depend on various factors including, general and business market conditions, corporate and regulatory requirements, share price, alternative investment opportunities and other factors. The Repurchase Plan commenced on May 29, 2020 and does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares in any period, and may be expanded, extended, modified, suspended or discontinued by the Board of Directors at any time. There were no repurchases to the Stock Repurchase Plan during the year ended December 31, 2022. ITEM 6. [RESERVED] ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide information necessary to understand our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and highlight certain other information which, in the opinion of management, will enhance a reader’s understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition and results of operations. In particular, the discussion is intended to provide an analysis of significant trends and material changes in our financial position and the operating results of our business during the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These historical financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains numerous forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risks described throughout this filing, particularly in “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” Corporate Overview We are a global biotech company working to unlock the potential of CGTs in an affordable and accessible format. CGTs can be centered on autologous (using the patient’s own cells) or allogenic (using master banked donor cells) and are part of a class of medicines referred to as advanced therapy medicinal products, or ATMPs. We are mostly focused on autologous therapies that can be manufactured under processes and systems that are developed for each therapy using a closed and automated approach that is validated for compliant production near the patient for treatment of the patient at the point of care, or POCare. This approach has the potential to overcome the limitations of traditional commercial manufacturing methods that do not translate well to commercial production of advanced therapies due to their cost prohibitive nature and complex logistics to deliver such treatments to patients (ultimately limiting the number of patients that can have access to, or can afford, these therapies). To achieve these goals, we have developed a collaborative worldwide network of research institutes and hospitals who are engaged in the POCare model, or our POCare Network, and a pipeline of licensed POCare advanced therapies that can be processed and produced under such closed and automated processes and systems, or POCare Therapies. We are developing our pipeline of advanced therapies and with the goal of entering into out-licensing agreements for these therapies. 53 Following the Metalmark Investment in November 2022, we separated our operations into two operating segments namely 1) Morgenesis and 2) Therapies. Prior to that, we conducted all of our operations as one single segment. The Morgenesis operations includes mainly POCare Services, and include the results of the subsidiaries transferred to Morgenesis. The Therapies segment includes our therapeutic development operations. The segment information presented in note 5 of item 8 reflects the results of the subsidiaries that were transferred to Morgenesis. Morgenesis segment (mainly POCare Services) The POCare Services that we and our affiliated entities perform include: ● ● ● ● ● ● Process development of therapies, process adaptation, and optimization inside the OMPULs, or “OMPULization”; Adaptation of automation and closed systems to serviced therapies; Incorporation of the serviced therapies compliant with GMP in the OMPULs that we designed and built; Tech transfers and training of local teams for the serviced therapies at the POCare Centers; Processing and supply of the therapies and required supplies under GMP conditions within our POCare Network, including required quality control testing; and Contract Research Organization services for clinical trials. The POCare Services are performed in decentralized hubs that provide harmonized and standardized services to customers, or POCare Centers. We are working to expand the number and scope of our POCare Centers. We believe that this provides an efficient and scalable pathway for CGT therapies to reach patients rapidly at lowered costs. Our POCare Services are designed to allow rapid capacity expansion while integrating new technologies to bring together patients, doctors and industry partners with a goal of achieving standardized, regulated clinical development and production of therapies. Therapies segment (POCare Therapies) While the biotech industry struggles to determine the best way to lower cost of goods and enable CGTs to scale, the scientific community continues to advance and push the development of such therapies to new heights. Clinicians and researchers are excited by all the new tools (new generations of industrial viruses, big data analysis for genetic and molecular data) and technologies (CRISPR, mRNA, etc.) available (often at a low cost) to perform advanced research in small labs. Most new therapies arise from academic institutes or small spinouts from such institutes. Though such research efforts may manage to progress into a clinical stage, utilizing lab based or hospital-based production solutions they lack the resources to continue the development of such drugs to market approval. Historically, drug/therapeutic development has required investments of hundreds of millions of dollars to be successful. One significant cause for the high cost is that each therapy often requires unique production facilities and technologies that must be subcontracted or built. Further the cost of production during the clinical stage is extremely expensive, and the cost of the clinical trial itself is very high. Given these financial restraints, researchers and institutes hope to out- license their therapeutic products to large biotech companies or spin-out new companies and raise large fundraising rounds. However, in many cases they lack the resources and the capability to de-risk their therapeutic candidates enough to be attractive for such fundings or partnership. Our POCare Network is an alternative to the traditional pathway of drug development. Orgenesis works closely with many such institutes and is in close contact with researchers in the field. The partnerships with leading hospitals and research institutes gives us a deep insight as to the developments in the field, as well as the market potential, the regulatory landscape and optimal clinical pathway to get these products to market. 54 The ability to produce these products at low cost, allows for an expedited development process and the partnership with hospitals around the globe enables joint grants and lower cost of clinical development. The POCare Therapies division reviews many therapies available for out licensing and select the ones which they believe have the highest market potential, can benefit the most from a point of care approach and have the highest chance of clinical success. It assesses such issues by utilizing its global POCare Network and its internal knowhow accumulated over a decade of involvement in the field. The goal of this in-licensing is to quickly adapt such therapies to a point-of- care approach through regional partnerships, and to out-license the products for market approval in preferred geographical regions. This approach lowers overall development cost, through minimizing pre-clinical development costs incurred by us, and through receiving of the additional funding from grants and/or payments by regional partners. Significant Developments During Fiscal 2022 Financing Activities Equity From March to June 2022, we sold to certain investors pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2022, in a private placement, an aggregate of 724,999 shares of our Common Stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 146,959 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share. The warrants were not exercisable until after six months and expire three years from the date of issuance. We received gross proceeds of $2,175,000 before deducting related offering expenses through the final closing on June 30, 2022. Convertible Loan Agreements During April and May 2022, we entered into three convertible loan agreements (the “Convertible Loan Agreements”) with three non-U.S. investors (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders loaned us an aggregate of $9.15 million (the “Loan Amount”). Interest is calculated at 6% per annum (based on a 365-day year) and is payable, along with the principal, during or before the third quarter of 2023. At any time prior to or on the maturity date, the Lenders may provide us with written notice to convert all or part of the loans into shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $4.50 per share (subject to adjustment for certain capital events, such as stock splits) (the “Conversion Price”). In connection with such loans, we issued to the Lenders warrants representing the right to purchase an aggregate of 408,335 shares of our Common Stock (which is 25% of the shares of our Common Stock into which the loans are initially convertible at the Conversion Price), at an exercise price per share of $4.50 per share. Such warrants are exercisable at any time beginning six months and one day after the closing date and ending 36 months after such closing date. During October 2022, we entered into convertible loan extension agreements (the “Convertible Loan Extension Agreements”) with two of the Lenders, which amended their respective Convertible Loan Agreements in an aggregate $8,000,000 principal Loan Amount as follows: (i) the interest rate increased from 6% to 10% per annum from the loan receipt date on the unconverted and then outstanding loan amount; (ii) the maturity date was extended to repayment to the first quarter of 2024; (iii) we agreed to issue a warrant to the Lender for the right to purchase an aggregate of 1,777,777 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price per share of $2.50 per share, which is exercisable at any time beginning from April 2023 and ending October 2025; and (iv) the Conversion Price was amended to a price per share of $2.50 per share instead of $4.50 per share. In addition, we repaid four loans in the principal amount of $2.3 million. Metalmark Investment in Morgenesis LLC In November 2022, we and MM OS Holdings, L.P. (“MM”), an affiliate of Metalmark Capital Partners (“Metalmark”), entered into a series of definitive agreements intended to finance, strengthen and expand our POCare Services business. 55 Pursuant to a unit purchase agreement (the “UPA”), MM purchased 3,019,651 Class A Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class A Units”), which represented 22.31% of the outstanding equity interests of Morgenesis following the initial closing, for a purchase price of $30.2 million, comprised of (i) $20 million of cash consideration and (ii) the conversion of $10.2 million of MM’s then-outstanding senior secured convertible loans previously entered into with MM (collectively, the “Consideration”). Under certain conditions related to Morgenesis’ performance among others, MM has agreed to make future payments of up to $20 million in cash for additional Class A (or Class B) Units, and/or make a one-time cash payment of $10 million to Orgenesis (the “Earnout Payment”). Until the consummation of a Company IPO or Change of Control of Morgenesis (in each case, as defined in the LLC Agreement), MM may, in its sole discretion, elect to invest up to an additional $60 million in Morgenesis (any such investment, an “Optional Investment”) in exchange for certain Class C Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class C Units” and, together with the Class A Units and the Class B Units, the “Preferred Units”). The proceeds of the investment will generally be used to fund the activities of Morgenesis and its consolidated subsidiaries. In connection with the entry into of the UPA, we, Morgenesis and MM entered into the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) providing for certain restrictions on the disposition of Morgenesis securities, the provisions of certain options and rights with respect to the management and operations of Morgenesis, a right for MM to exchange any units of Morgenesis for shares of Orgenesis common stock and certain other rights and obligations. In addition, MM was provided certain protective rights in Morgenesis. Purchase of Mida Biotech BV During February 2022, pursuant to the joint venture agreement between ourselves and Mida Biotech BV “Mida”), we purchased all the issued shares in Mida for consideration of $100 thousand. In lieu of cash, the consideration was paid via the issuance of shares of our Common Stock to Mida’s shareholders. License, Collaboration and Joint Venture Agreements License and Research Agreement with Yeda Research and Development Company Limited During January 2022, we and Yeda Research and Development Company Limited (“Yeda”), an Israeli company, entered into a license and research agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Yeda granted us an exclusive, worldwide royalty bearing license to creating licensed information and the licensed patents, for the development, manufacture, use, offer for sale, sale and import of products in the field of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell immunotherapy platforms (excluding CAR-Cytokine Induced Killer cell immunotherapy. In addition, during 2022, we continued the development of license agreements previously entered into, as described more fully in notes 11 and 12 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of this annual report on Form 10-K. 56 Results of Operations Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2022 to the Year Ended December 31, 2021. Our financial results for the year ended December 31, 2022 are summarized as follows in comparison to the year ended December 31, 2021: Revenues Revenues from related party Total revenues Cost of revenues, development services and research and development expenses Amortization of intangible assets Selling, general and administrative expenses Impairment expenses Operating loss Other income Loss from extinguishment in connection with convertible loan (see note 7 a of Item 8) Financial expense, net Share in income of associated company Loss before income taxes Tax expense Net loss Revenues The following table shows our revenues by major revenue streams: Revenue stream: POCare development services Cell process development services and hospital services POCare cell processing Total Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) 34,741 $ 1,284 36,025 27,066 911 15,589 1,061 8,602 (173) 52 1,971 1,508 11,960 209 12,169 $ 31,646 3,856 35,502 36,644 948 14,710 - 16,800 (2,278) 1,865 1,292 272 17,951 108 18,059 Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) 14,894 $ 11,212 9,919 36,025 $ 32,192 3,310 - 35,502 $ $ $ $ Our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $36,025 thousand, as compared to $35,502 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021, representing an increase of 1%.The change in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021 was attributable to the following: ● ● ● A decline in POCare development services as a result of our having completed the majority of performance obligations under the POCare development services contracts in 2021. The next stage in our revenue model, following the completion of POCare development services is to enter into cell processing agreements with the relevant customers. An increase in cell process development services and hospital services as a result of our having signed new process development services agreements with third party customers who retain the ownership of the intellectual property created through the process. During the year ended December 31, 2022 we signed cell processing agreements with customers. In most cases, the cell processing agreements represent a new stage in our revenue model, following the completion of POCare development services contracts. A breakdown of the revenues per customer that constituted at least 10% of revenues is as follows: Revenue earned: Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) Customer A (Greece) Customer B (United States) Customer C (United Arab Emirates) Customer D (Korea) $ 8,936 $ 8,316 5,271 3,873 4,693 6,491 6,969 7,703 57 Cost of revenues, development services and research and development expenses Salaries and related expenses Stock-based compensation Subcontracting, professional and consulting services Lab expenses Depreciation expenses, net Other research and development expenses Less – grant Total Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) 11,206 $ 616 5,655 2,685 1,017 6,010 (123) 27,066 $ 10,977 729 12,796 3,513 874 7,755 - 36,644 $ $ Cost of revenues, development services and research and development for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $27,066 thousand, as compared to $36,644 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021, representing a decrease of 26%. In previous years, we made significant investments in research and development services including in the development of several types of OMPULs, the development of automated processing units and processes, owned and licensed advanced therapies to enable commercial production, and additional work that addresses POCare needs. While we continue to invest in these activities, the majority of development work on our OMPULs has been completed thus allowing us to deploy OMPULS in various worldwide locations. As a result of the reduction in development and research and development services expenses, subcontracting, professional and consulting services, lab expenses and other research and development expenses declined by 40%.

In 2021 a discretionary bonus was granted to our Chief Executive Officer, Vered Caplan, in the amount of $3.6 million. In 2022 no such bonus award was granted. Impairment Expenses Impairment expenses Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 $ (in thousands) 1,061 $ - 58 Impairment expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $1,061 thousand, as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2021. These were attributable to the write-off of customer relationships and IPR&D intangible assets purchased in previous years.

The increase is mainly attributable to increased tax liabilities in the U.S. Effective for years beginning after December 31, 2021, Internal Revenue Code Section 174 changed the tax treatment of research and experimentation (R&E) expenditures. While companies have historically deducted such costs for federal income tax purposes, these new rules require capitalization and prescribe cost recovery over a period of five years for research and development paid or incurred in the United States and 15 years for R&E paid or incurred outside of the United States. Working Capital Current assets Current liabilities Working capital December 31, 2022 2021 (in thousands) 46,318 $ 15,910 $ 30,408 $ 25,758 15,365 10,393 $ $ $ Current assets increased by $20,560 thousand between December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable as a result of increased POCare revenues. Current liabilities increased by $545 thousand between December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022, which was primarily attributable to the following: (i) an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses as a result of expenses incurred towards the end of 2022 not yet paid for, offset by a reduction in current maturities of convertible loans. 59 Liquidity and Capital Resources Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 (in thousands) Net loss $ (12,169) $ (18,059) Net cash used in operating activities Net cash used in investing activities Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities Net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (24,924) (14,133) 39,578 $ 521 $ (26,866) (12,384) (106) (39,356) During year ended December 31, 2022, we funded our operations from operations as well as from proceeds raised from equity and debt offerings. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was approximately $24,924 thousand, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $26,866 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decline was mainly as a result of ● ● ● ● ● ● ● a loss of $12,169 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to a loss of $18,059 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021; a decline of $763 thousand in stock-based compensation mainly as a result of a reduced share price; an increase of $1,236 thousand in our share of losses in our associated companies (see note 13); impairment expenses of $1,061 thousand as a result of the write off of certain intangible assets; an increase of $881 thousand in interest expenses accrued on convertible loans as a result of increased interest rates and new loan agreements entered into; an increase in accounts receivable of $20,938 thousand as a result of an increase in POCare revenue; a decline of $1,284 thousand in accounts payable and accrued expenses a result of reduced expenditures. Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was approximately $14,133 thousand, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $12,384 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was mainly as a result of additional loans granted to associated companies in the amount of $4,131 thousand and additional purchases of property, plants and equipment of $12,416 thousand used in our POCare facilities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was approximately $39,578 thousand, as compared to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $106 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to: ● proceeds raised from equity investments in the amount of $2,181 thousand; ● proceeds raised from loans in the amount of $19,150 thousand, offset by loan repayments in the amount of $2,300 thousand; ● proceeds in the amount of $20,000 thousand from the Metal Mark investment. Liquidity and Capital Resources Outlook Through December 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $121,261 thousand as of December 31, 2022 and negative operating cashflows of $24,924 thousand in the year ended December 31, 2022. Our activities have been funded by generating revenue, through offerings of our securities, and through the raising of loan finance. There is no assurance that our business will generate sustainable positive cash flows to fund its business. If there are further increases in operating costs for facilities expansion, research and development, commercial and clinical activity or decreases in revenues from customers, we will need to use mitigating actions such as to seek additional financing, refinance or amend the terms of existing convertible loans or postpone expenses that are not based on firm commitments. In addition, in order to fund our operations until such time that we can generate sustainable positive cash flows, we will need to raise additional funds. For the year ended December 31, 2022 and as of the date of this report, we assessed our financial condition and concluded that based on our current and projected cash resources and commitments, as well as other factors mentioned above, there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are planning to raise additional capital to continue our operations and to repay our outstanding loans when they become due, as well as to explore additional avenues to increase revenues and reduce expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all. 60 Subsequent to the year end, we and investors representing $12,250 thousand of the convertible loans outstanding at December 31, 2022 agreed to extend the maturity of the loans to January 31, 2026, increase the annual interest rate to 10% effective February 1, 2023, increase the expiry date of related warrants to January 31, 2026, and change the loan conversion price to $2.50. We also entered into new convertible loan agreements pursuant to which the lenders loaned the Company $5,000 thousand. Interest on such convertible loans is calculated at 8% per annum. The loan amount and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon shall either (i) be repaid in cash or (ii) convert into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.464 per share on the maturity date (January 10, 2026). At any time prior to the maturity date, the outstanding amount may be converted into shares of common stock at the conversion price. We used part of the loan proceeds to repay an existing loan in the principal amount of $3,000 thousand. Finally, on February 23, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors relating to the issuance and sale of 1,947,368 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to 973,684 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $1.90 per share of common Stock and accompanying warrants in a registered direct offering. The warrants also have an alternate cashless exercise option (beginning on or after the earlier of (a) the thirty-day anniversary of the date of the purchase agreement and (b) the date on which the aggregate composite trading volume of our common stock exceeds 13,600,000 shares), to receive an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of shares of our common stock that would be issuable upon a cash exercise and (y) 1.0. The offering closed on February 27, 2023 and we received approximately $3.7 million, before deducting the placement agent’s cash fee equal to 7% of the proceeds and offering expenses. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering and convertible loans raised for working capital and general corporate purposes, including our therapy related activities. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We believe that the accounting policies below are critical for one to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations. Income Taxes Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. In addition, our management performs an evaluation of all uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our income tax returns to determine whether the income tax positions meet a “more likely than not” standard of being sustained under examination by the applicable taxing authorities. This evaluation is required to be performed for all open tax years, as defined by the various statutes of limitations, for federal and state purposes. 61 Revenue from Contracts with Customers Our agreements are primarily service contracts that range in duration. We recognize revenue when control of these services is transferred to the customer for an amount, referred to as the transaction price, which reflects the consideration to which we are expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A contract with a customer exists only when: ● ● ● ● the parties to the contract have approved it and are committed to perform their respective obligations; we can identify each party’s rights regarding the distinct goods or services to be transferred (“performance obligations”); we can determine the transaction price for the goods or services to be transferred; and the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. Nature of Revenue Streams We have three main revenue streams, which are POCare development services, cell process development services, including hospital supplies, and POCare cell processing. POCare Development Services Revenue recognized under contracts for POCare development services may, in some contracts, represent multiple performance obligations (where promises to the customers are distinct) in circumstances in which the work packages are not interrelated or the customer is able to complete the services performed. For arrangements that include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. We recognize revenue when, or as, it satisfies a performance obligation. At contract inception, we determine whether the services are transferred over time or at a point in time. Performance obligations that have no alternative use and that we have the right to payment for performance completed to date, at all times during the contract term, are recognized over time. All other Performance obligations are recognized as revenues by us at point of time (upon completion). Significant Judgement and Estimates Significant judgment is required to identifying the distinct performance obligations and estimating the standalone selling price of each distinct performance obligation and identifying which performance obligations create assets with alternative use to us, which results in revenue recognized upon completion, and which performance obligations are transferred to the customer over time. Cell Process Development Services Revenue recognized under contracts for cell process development services may, in some contracts, represent multiple performance obligations (where promises to the customers are distinct) in circumstances in which the work packages and milestones are not interrelated or the customer is able to complete the services performed independently or by using our competitors. In other contracts when the above circumstances are not met, the promises are not considered distinct, and the contract represents one performance obligation. All performance obligations are satisfied over time, as there is no alternative use to the services it performs, since, in nature, those services are unique to the customer, which retain the ownership of the intellectual property created through the process. For arrangements that include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. For these contracts, the standalone selling prices are based on our normal pricing practices when sold separately with consideration of market conditions and other factors, including customer demographics and geographic location. 62 We measure the revenue to be recognized over time on a contract-by-contract basis, determining the use of either a cost- based input method or output method, depending on whichever best depicts the transfer of control over the life of the performance obligation. Included in Cell Process Development Services is hospital supplies revenue which is derived principally from the sale or lease of products and the performance of services to hospitals or other medical providers. Revenue is earned and recognized when product and services are received by the customer. Revenue from POCare Cell processing Revenues from POCare Cell processing represent performance obligations which are recognized either over, or at a point of time. The progress towards completion will continue to be measured on an output measure based on direct measurement of the value transferred to the customer (units produced). ITEM 7A.

Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of our company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. In making this evaluation, our management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. 63 Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022 based on those criteria. This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm on internal control over financial reporting because we are a smaller reporting company and non-accelerated filer. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Board of Directors exercises its supervision over management by reviewing and approving long-term strategic, business and capital plans, material contracts and business transactions, and all debt and equity financing transactions and stock issuances. Director Independence Our Board of Directors is comprised of a majority of independent directors. In determining director independence, we use the definition of independence in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Board has concluded that each of Dr. Sidransky, and Messrs. Yachin, Adler, Philips and Nanda is “independent” based on the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market, having concluded that any relationship between such director and our company, in its opinion, does not interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. 67 Board Committees Our Board of Directors has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, with each comprised of independent directors in accordance with the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market and applicable federal securities laws and regulations. The members of the Audit Committee are Dr. Sidransky and Messrs. Yachin and Philips. The members of the Compensation Committee are Dr. Sidransky and Messrs. Adler and Yachin. The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Nanda, Adler and Yachin. The members of the Research and Development Committee are Mr. Yachin and Dr. Sidransky.

Our Audit Committee must approve in advance all audit, review and attest services and all non-audit services (including, in each case, the engagement and terms thereof) to be performed by our independent auditors, in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Compensation Committee The Compensation Committee (i) assists the Board of Directors in discharging its responsibilities with respect to compensation of our executive officers and directors, (ii) evaluates the performance of our executive officers, and (iii) administers our stock and incentive compensation plans and recommends changes in such plans to the Board as needed.

Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all such forms they file. Our records reflect that all reports which were required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, were filed on a timely basis, except that one report on Form 4 was filed late by David Sidransky, one report on Form 4 was filed late by Yaron Adler, one report on Form 4 was filed late by Mario Philips, one report on Form 4 was filed late by Guy Yachin, and one report on Form 4 was filed late by Ashish Nanda.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The following table shows the total compensation paid or accrued during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Development Officer. As of December 31, 2022, there were no other executive officers who earned more than $100,000 during the year ended December 31, 2022 and were serving as executive officers as of such date (the “named executive officers”). 69 Summary Compensation Table Name and Principal Position Vered Caplan CEO(3) Neil Reithinger CFO, Treasurer & Secretary Efrat Assa- Kunik, Chief Development Officer Year Salary ($) Bonus ($) 2022 243,868 - 2021 264,483 3,600,000 2022 126,005 2021 239,670 2022 162,316 2021 169,533 - - - - Non- Equity Incentive Plan Compensa- tion ($) Stock Awards ($) Option Awards ($) (1) Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Earnings ($) All Other Compensa- tion ($) (2) Total ($) - - - - - - 107,941 - 19,048 - 19,048 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 92,100 443,909 112,345 3,976,828 - 145,053 - 239,670 44,467 225,831 46,387 215,919 (1) In accordance with SEC rules, the amounts in this column reflect the fair value on the grant date of the option awards granted to the named executive, calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. Stock options were valued using the Black- Scholes model. The grant-date fair value does not necessarily reflect the value of shares which may be received in the future with respect to these awards. The grant-date fair value of the stock options in this column is a non-cash expense for us that reflects the fair value of the stock options on the grant date and therefore does not affect our cash balance. The fair value of the stock options will likely vary from the actual value the holder receives because the actual value depends on the number of options exercised and the market price of our Common Stock on the date of exercise. For a discussion of the assumptions made in the valuation of the stock options, see Note 15 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. No executive officers received options awards in the year ended December 31, 2022. See below for a summary of options awarded in previous years.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested in 2022 The following table shows information regarding exercises of options to purchase our common stock and vesting of stock awards held by each executive officer named in the Summary Compensation Table during the year ended December 31, 2022. Option Awards Stock Awards Number of Shares Acquired on Exercise (#) (b) Value Realized on Exercise ($) (1) (c) 278,191 875,745 Number of Shares Acquired on Vesting (#) (d) - Value Realized on Vesting ($) (e) - Name (a) Vered Caplan (1) Amounts shown in this column do not necessarily represent actual value realized from the sale of the shares acquired upon exercise of options because in many cases the shares are not sold on exercise but continue to be held by the executive officer exercising the option. The amounts shown represent the difference between the option exercise price and the market price on the date of exercise, which is the amount that would have been realized if the shares had been sold immediately upon exercise. 71 Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table and Employment Agreements Vered Caplan On August 14, 2014, our Board of Directors confirmed that Ms. Vered Caplan, who had served as our President and Chief Executive Officer on an interim basis since December 23, 2013, was appointed as our President and Chief Executive Officer.

Potential Payments upon Change of Control or Termination following a Change of Control Our employment agreements with our named executive officers provide incremental compensation in the event of termination, as described herein. Generally, we currently do not provide any severance specifically upon a change in control nor do we provide for accelerated vesting upon change in control. Termination of employment also impacts outstanding stock options. Due to the factors that may affect the amount of any benefits provided upon the events described below, any actual amounts paid or payable may be different than those shown in this table. Factors that could affect these amounts include the basis for the termination, the date the termination event occurs, the base salary of an executive on the date of termination of employment and the price of our common stock when the termination event occurs. The following table sets forth the compensation that would have been received by each of our executive officers had they been terminated as of December 31, 2022.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 22, 2023 for (a) the named executive officers, (b) each of our directors, (c) all of our current directors and executive officers as a group and (d) each stockholder known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of our common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. We deem shares of common stock that may be acquired by an individual or group within 60 days of March 22, 2023 pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such individual or group but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person shown in the table. Except as indicated in footnotes to this table, we believe that the stockholders named in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown to be beneficially owned by them based on information provided to us by these stockholders.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES Our Board of Directors has appointed Kesselman & Kesselman, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited (“PwC”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The following table sets forth the fees billed to us for professional services rendered by PwC for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021: Services: Audit Fees (1) Audit-Related Fees (2) Tax Fees (3) Total fees Years Ended December 31, 2021 2022 $ $ 288,705 $ 6,405 - 295,110 $ 228,188 16,634 29,863 274,685 (1) (2) Audit fees consisted of audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work generally only the independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, such as statutory audits. Audit related fees consisted principally of audits of employee benefit plans and special procedures related to regulatory filings in 2022. (3) The tax fees were paid for reviewing various tax related matters. Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Public Accountant Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm for the next year’s audit, management will submit an aggregate of services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services to the Audit Committee for approval. 1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally only an independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards. 2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by an independent registered public accounting firm, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements. 80 3. Tax services include all services performed by an independent registered public accounting firm’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. 4. Other Fees are those associated with services not captured in the other categories. We generally do not request such services from our independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted, and the Audit Committee requires our independent registered public accounting firm and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage our independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre- approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. ITEM 15.

Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Orgenesis Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss (income), change in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1b to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has incurred cash outflows from operating activities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1b. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements 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 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were 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 of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. F-2 Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Goodwill Impairment Assessment As described in Note 2 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was $8 million at December 31, 2022. In the fourth quarter of 2022, following the separation of the Company’s business into two operating segments, the Company reallocated goodwill to its newly reorganized reporting units (Morgenesis and Therapies) using a relative fair value approach. As a result, the goodwill associated with Morgenesis and Therapies reporting units were $7 million and $1 million, respectively. Based on this reallocation, the Company performed an impairment analysis for these two reporting units on the date of change. Fair value is estimated by management using a discounted cash flow model. Management’s cash flow projections for the reporting units included significant judgments and assumptions relating to revenue growth rates, projected operating income and the discount rate. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill impairment assessment is a critical audit matter are there was significant judgment by management when determining the fair value measurement of the reporting units; This in turn led to high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluate management’s cash flow projections and significant assumptions including revenue growth rates, projected operating income and discount rate. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in performing these procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others, testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate; evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow model; testing the completeness, accuracy and relevance of underlying data used in the model; and evaluating the significant assumptions used by management, including the discount rate, revenue growth rates, and projected operating income. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to revenue growth rates and projected operating income involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering (i) the current performance of the reporting units (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data, and (iii) whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of Company’s discounted cash flow model and certain significant assumptions, including the discount rate. /s/ Kesselman & Kesselman Certified Public Accountants (Isr.)

F-9 ORGENESIS INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS a. General Orgenesis Inc. is a global biotech company working to unlock the potential of CGTs in an affordable and accessible format. CGTs can be centered on autologous (using the patient’s own cells) or allogenic (using master banked donor cells) and are part of a class of medicines referred to as advanced therapy medicinal products, or ATMPs. The Company is mostly focused on autologous therapies that can be manufactured under processes and systems that are developed for each therapy using a closed and automated approach that is validated for compliant production near the patient for treatment of the patient at the point of care, or POCare. This approach has the potential to overcome the limitations of traditional commercial manufacturing methods that do not translate well to commercial production of advanced therapies due to their cost prohibitive nature and complex logistics to deliver such treatments to patients (ultimately limiting the number of patients that can have access to, or can afford, these therapies). To achieve these goals, the Company has developed a collaborative worldwide network of research institutes and hospitals who are engaged in the POCare model, or the Company’s POCare Network, and a pipeline of licensed POCare advanced therapies that can be processed and produced under such closed and automated processes and systems, or POCare Therapies. The Company is developing its pipeline of advanced therapies and with the goal of entering into out-licensing agreements for them. The Company’s cellular therapies, though defined as drug products, conceptually differ from other drug modalities in that they are based on reprogramming of cells sourced from the patient or from a donor. In most cases, they are individually produced per patient in a highly sterile and controlled environment, and their efficacy is optimized when administered a short time following production as fresh product. To advance the execution of the Company’s goal of bringing such therapies to market, the Company has designed and built the Company’s POCare Platform - a scalable infrastructure of technology and services that ensures a central quality system, replicability and standardization of infrastructure and equipment, and centralized monitoring and data management. The platform is constructed on POCare Centers that serve as hubs that implement locally the Company’s POCare quality system, Good Manufacturing Practices, training procedures, quality control testing, incoming supply of materials and oversee the actual production in the Orgenesis Mobile Processing Units & Labs, or OMPULs. During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company streamlined its POCare platform with the incorporation of a new subsidiary, Morgenesis, which became responsible for certain POC operations. This platform is utilized by other parties, such as biotech companies and hospitals for the supply of their products. Morgenesis services include adapting the process to the platform and supplying the products, or POCare Services. These are services for third party companies and for CGT’s that are not necessarily based on the Company’s POCare Therapies. POCare Services The POCare Services that the Company and its affiliated entities perform include: ● ● ● ● ● ● Process development of therapies, process adaptation, and optimization inside the OMPULs, or “OMPULization”; Adaptation of automation and closed systems to serviced therapies; Incorporation of the serviced therapies compliant with GMP in the OMPULs that the Company designs and built; Tech transfers and training of local teams for the serviced therapies at the POCare Centers; Processing and supply of the therapies and required supplies under GMP conditions within the Company’s POCare Network, including required quality control testing; and Contract Research Organization services for clinical trials. The POCare Services are performed in decentralized hubs that provide harmonized and standardized services to customers, or POCare Centers. The Company is working to expand the number and scope of the Company’s POCare Centers with the intention of providing an efficient and scalable pathway for CGT therapies to reach patients rapidly at lowered costs. Our POCare Services are designed to allow rapid capacity expansion while integrating new technologies to bring together patients, doctors and industry partners with a goal of achieving standardized, regulated clinical development and production of therapies. F-10 POCare Services Operations via Subsidiaries The Company currently conducts its core business operations itself and through Morgenesis and its subsidiaries which are all wholly owned except as otherwise stated below (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”). The following is a description of the Company’s Subsidiaries: Morgenesis LLC In August 2022, the Company formed Morgenesis LLC, a subsidiary to hold substantially all the assets of the Company’s POCare Services. The Company formed Morgenesis to streamline all existing POCare Service business units into one unified entity, bringing together a full-service range of solutions for therapeutic developers for point of care treatments. The newly formalized service offering provides solutions from initial process development, regulatory strategy and implementation, “OMPULization” which includes cGMP process development, closing/automating the process, and with the end goal of optimizing full cGMP processing and supply of therapeutic product to patients at the point of care. The Company currently owns 76.9% of Morgenesis. During November 2022, the Company and MM OS Holdings, L.P. (“MM”), an affiliate of Metalmark Capital Partners (“Metalmark”), entered into a series of definitive agreements intended to finance, strengthen and expand the Company’s POCare Services business (the “Metalmark Investment”). Pursuant to a unit purchase agreement (the “UPA”), MM purchased 3,019,651 Class A Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class A Units”), which represents 22.31% of the outstanding equity interests of Morgenesis following the initial closing, for a purchase price of $30.2 million, comprised of (i) $20 million of cash consideration and (ii) the conversion of $10.2 million of MM’s then-outstanding senior secured convertible loans previously entered into with MM. Under certain conditions related to Morgenesis’ performance among others, MM has agreed to make future payments of up to $20 million in cash for additional Class A (or Class B) Units, and/or make a one-time cash payment of $10 million to Orgenesis (the “Earnout Payment”). In connection with the entry into of the UPA, the Company, Morgenesis and MM entered into the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) providing for certain restrictions on the disposition of Morgenesis securities, the provisions of certain options and rights with respect to the management and operations of Morgenesis, a right for MM to exchange any units of Morgenesis for shares of Orgenesis common stock and certain other rights and obligations. In addition, MM was provided certain protective rights in Morgenesis. (See note 3) The Company transferred the following subsidiaries to Morgenesis: ● ● ● ● ● ● Orgenesis Maryland LLC, which is the center of POCare Services activity in North America and is currently focused on setting up and providing POCare Services and cell-processing services to the POCare Network. Tissue Genesis International LLC, which was formed in Texas in 2022, is currently focused on development of the Company’s technologies and therapies. Orgenesis Services SRL, which was incorporated in 2022 and is currently focused on expanding the Company’s POCare Network in Belgium. Orgenesis Germany GmbH, which is currently focused on providing CRO services to the POCare Network. Orgenesis Korea Co. Ltd., which is a provider of cell-processing and pre-clinical services in Korea. The Company owns 94.12% of the Korean Subsidiary. Orgenesis Biotech Israel Ltd., which is a provider of process development and cell-processing services in Israel. POCare Therapies The Company’s POCare Network is an alternative to the traditional pathway of drug development. The Company collaborates with academic institutions and entities that have been spun out from such institutions. The Company is in close contact with researchers who are experts in the field of the drug and also partners with leading hospitals and research institutes. Based on such collaborations, the Company enters into in-licensing agreements with relevant institutions for promising therapies with the aim of adapting them to a point-of-care setting through regional or strategic biological partnerships. It then is able to out-license its own therapeutic developments, as well as those therapies developed from in-licensing agreements, to out-licensing partners at preferred geographical regions. F-11 This approach lowers overall development costs through minimizing pre-clinical development costs incurred by the Company, and through receiving of the additional funding from grants and/or payments by regional partners. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● The Company’s therapies development subsidiaries are: Koligo Therapeutics, Inc., a Kentucky corporation, which is a regenerative medicine company, specializing in developing personalized cell therapies. It is currently focused on commercializing its metabolic pipeline via the POCare Network throughout the United States and in international markets. Orgenesis CA, Inc. a Delaware corporation, which is currently focused on development of technologies and therapies in California. Orgenesis Belgium SRL which is currently focused on product development. Since its incorporation, the subsidiary been awarded grants in excess of 18 million Euro from the Walloon region for several projects (DGO6 grants). Orgenesis Switzerland Sarl, which is currently focused on providing group management services. MIDA Biotech BV, which was acquired in 2022 and is currently focused on research and development activities, was granted a 4 million Euro grant under the European Innovation Council Pathfinder Challenge Program which supports cutting-edge science and technology. The grant is for technologies enabling the production of autologous induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using microfluidic technologies and artificial intelligence (AI). Orgenesis Italy SRL which was incorporated in 2022 and is currently focused on R&D activities. Orgenesis Ltd., an Israeli subsidiary which is focused on R&D and a provider of R&D management services for out licenced products. Israel as a hub for biotech research and pioneers in this field Orgenesis Australia PTY LTD, which was incorporated in 2022 and is currently focused on the development of the Company’s technologies and therapies. b. Liquidity Through December 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $121 million as of December 31, 2022 and negative operating cashflows of $24.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s activities have been funded by generating revenue, offerings of the Company’s securities and raising of loans. There is no assurance that the Company’s business will generate sustainable positive cash flows to fund its business. If there are further increases in operating costs for facilities expansion, research and development, commercial and clinical activity or decreases in revenues from customers, the Company will need to use mitigating actions such as to seek additional financing or postpone expenses that are not based on firm commitments. In addition, in order to fund the Company’s operations until such time that the Company can generate sustainable positive cash flows, the Company may need to raise additional funds. Current and projected cash resources and commitments, as well as other factors mentioned above, raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to meet the Company’s current operations for the next 12 months. Management plans include raising additional capital to fund its operations, as well as exploring additional avenues to increase revenue and reduce capital expenditures. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital or meet revenue targets, it may have to curtail certain activities. The estimation and execution uncertainty regarding the Company’s future cash flows and management’s judgments and assumptions in estimating these cash flows is a significant estimate. Those assumptions include reasonableness of the forecasted revenue, operating expenses, and uses and sources of cash. F-12 NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). a. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, judgments and methodologies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity, the amount of revenues and expenses and determining whether an acquisition is a business combination or a purchase of asset. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may directly or indirectly impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are uncertain, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat COVID-19, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers and markets. The Company examined the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial statements, and although there is currently no major impact, there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates. b. Business Combination The Company allocates the fair value of consideration transferred in a business combination to the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquired business based on their fair values at the acquisition date. All assets and liabilities are recognized in fair value. The purchase price allocation process requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date with respect to intangible assets. Direct transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred plus the fair value of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed in the acquired business is recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the consideration transferred in certain cases may be subject to revision based on the final determination of fair values during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. The cumulative impact of revisions during the measurement period is recognized in the reporting period in which the revisions are identified. The Company includes the results of operations of the business that it has acquired in its consolidated results prospectively from the date of acquisition. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquire is re-measured to fair value at the acquisition date; any gains or losses arising from such re- measurement are recognized in profit or loss. c. Cash Equivalents The Company considers cash equivalents to be all short-term, highly liquid investments, which include money market instruments, that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use, and short-term bank deposits with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase that are not restricted as to withdrawal or use and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. F-13 d. Cost of revenues, development services and research and development expenses Cost of revenues, development services and research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to the conduct of research and development activities, including the cost of salaries, stock-based compensation expenses, payroll taxes and other employees’ benefits, lab expenses, consumable equipment, courier fees, travel expenses, professional fees and consulting fees. All costs associated with research and developments are expensed as incurred. Participation from government departments and from research foundations for development of approved projects is recognized as a reduction of expense as the related costs are incurred. Research and development in-process acquired as part of an asset purchase, which has not reached technological feasibility and has no alternative future use, is expensed as incurred. e. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. f. Non-Marketable Equity Investments The Company’s investments in certain non-marketable equity securities in which it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but it does not control through variable interests or voting interests. These are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and presented as Investment in associates, net, in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Under the equity method, the Company recognizes its proportionate share of the comprehensive income or loss of the investee. The Company’s share of income and losses from equity method investments is included in share in losses of associated company. The Company reviews its investments accounted for under the equity method for possible impairment, which generally involves an analysis of the facts and changes in circumstances influencing the investments. For other investments, the Company applies the measurement alternative upon the adoption of ASU 2016-01 and elected to record equity investments without readily determinable fair values at cost, less impairment, adjusted for subsequent observable price changes. In this measurement alternative method, changes in the carrying value of the equity investments are reflected in current earnings. Changes in the carrying value of the equity investment are required to be made whenever there are observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. g. Fair value measurement The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. Level 2: Observable inputs that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. h. Functional Currency The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company and part of its Subsidiaries are conducted is the U.S. dollar (“$” or “dollar”). The functional currency of the Belgian Subsidiaries is the Euro (“€” or “Euro”). The functional currency of Orgenesis Korea is the Won (“KRW”). Most of the Company’s expenses are incurred in dollars, and the source of the Company’s financing has been provided in dollars. Thus, the functional currency of the Company and its other subsidiaries is the dollar. Transactions and balances originally denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Balances in foreign currencies are translated into dollars using historical and current exchange rates for nonmonetary and monetary balances, respectively. For foreign transactions and other items reflected in the statements of operations, the following exchange rates are used: (1) for transactions – exchange rates at transaction dates or average rates and (2) for other items (derived from nonmonetary balance sheet items such as depreciation) – historical exchange rates. The resulting transaction gains or losses are recorded as financial income or expenses. The financial statements of the Belgian Subsidiaries and Orgenesis Korea are included in the consolidated financial statements, translated into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at yearly average exchange rates during the year. Differences resulting from translation of assets and liabilities are presented as other comprehensive income. i. Inventory The Company’s inventory consists of raw material for use for the services provided. The Company periodically evaluates the quantities on hand. Cost of the raw materials is determined using the weighted average cost method. The inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. F-14 j. Property, plants and Equipment Property, plants and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Annual rates of depreciation are presented in the table below: Production facility Laboratory equipment Office equipment and computers k. Intangible assets Intangible assets and their useful lives are as follows: Weighted Average Useful Life (Years) 3 – 10 1 – 10 3 – 17 Customer Relationships Know-How Technology In-process research and development Useful Life (Years) 10 12 15 Indefinite Amortization Recorded at Comprehensive Loss Line Item Amortization of intangible assets Amortization of intangible assets Amortization of intangible assets Intangible assets are recorded at acquisition less accumulated amortization and impairment. Definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, which is determined by identifying the period over which the cash flows from the asset are expected to be generated. The Company capitalizes IPR&D projects acquired as part of a business combination. On successful completion of each project, IPR&D assets are reclassified to developed technology and amortized over their estimated useful lives. l. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of consideration transferred over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is allocated to reporting units expected to benefit from the business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but rather tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Following the Metalmark Investment, the Company conducted an analysis of its operations, which led to changes in the Company’s identified reporting units, operating and reporting segments. As a result of the analysis, two operating units were identified: Morgenesis and Therapies. As a result, the Company reallocated its goodwill to the adjusted reporting units using a relative fair value allocation. Goodwill impairment is recognized when the quantitative assessment results in the carrying value exceeding the fair value, in which case an impairment charge is recorded to the extent the carrying value exceeds the fair value. There were no impairment charges to goodwill during the periods presented. m. Impairment of Long-lived Assets The Company reviews its property, plants and equipment, intangible assets subject to amortization and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset class may not be recoverable. Indicators of potential impairment include: an adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of the asset; an adverse change in the extent or manner in which the asset is used or is expected to be used, or in its physical condition; and current or forecasted operating or cash flow losses that demonstrate continuing losses associated with the use of the asset. If indicators of impairment are present, the asset is tested for recoverability by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the related estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be derived from the asset. If the expected cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, then the asset is considered to be impaired and its carrying value is written down to fair value, based on the related estimated discounted cash flows. For indefinite life intangible assets, the Company performs an impairment test annually in the fourth quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company determines the fair value of the asset based on discounted cash flows and records an impairment loss if its book value exceeds fair value. F-15 Impairment charges to customer relationships and IPR&D during the year ended December 31, 2022 were $1,061. n. Income Taxes 1) With respect to deferred taxes, income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred taxes will not be realized in the foreseeable future. 2) The Company follows a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on examination. If this threshold is met, the second step is to measure the tax position as the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. 3) Taxes that would apply in the event of disposal of investment in Subsidiaries and associated companies have not been taken into account in computing the deferred income taxes, as it is the Company’s intention to hold these investments and not realize them. o. Stock-based Compensation The Company recognizes stock-based compensation for the estimated fair value of share-based awards. The Company measures compensation expense for share-based awards based on estimated fair values on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This option pricing model requires estimates as to the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The Company amortizes the value of share-based awards to expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. p. Redeemable Non-controlling Interest Non-controlling interests with embedded redemption features, whose settlement is not at the Company’s discretion, are considered redeemable non-controlling interest. Redeemable non-controlling interests are considered to be temporary equity and are therefore presented as a mezzanine section between liabilities and equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Redeemable non-controlling interests are measured at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the non-controlling interest’s share of comprehensive income or loss or its redemption value. Subsequent adjustment of the amount presented in temporary equity is required only if the Company’s management estimates that it is probable that the instrument will become redeemable. Adjustments of redeemable non-controlling interest to its redemption value are recorded through additional paid-in capital. q. Loss per Share of Common Stock Basic net loss (income) per share is computed by dividing the net loss (income) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted net loss (income) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares and of common shares equivalents outstanding when dilutive. Common share equivalents include: (i) outstanding stock options and warrants which are included under the treasury share method when dilutive, and (ii) common shares to be issued under the assumed conversion of the Company’s outstanding convertible loans and debt, which are included under the if-converted method when dilutive (See Note 14). F-16 r. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of principally cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits and certain receivables. The Company held these instruments with highly rated financial institutions and the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses in these accounts and does not believe the Company is exposed to any significant credit risk on these instruments apart of accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers for the purpose of determining the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts. As of December 31, 2022, the Company does not have credit losses with respect to these accounts and does not believe it is exposed to significant credit risk on these instruments. Bad debt allowance is created when objective evidence exists of inability to collect all sums owed it under the original terms of the debit balances. Material customer difficulties, the probability of their going bankrupt or undergoing economic reorganization and insolvency, material delays in payments and other objective considerations by management that indicate expected risk of payment are all considered indicative of reduced debtor balance value. s. Treasury shares The Company repurchases its common stock from time to time on the open market and holds such shares as treasury stock. The Company presents the cost to repurchase treasury stock as a reduction of shareholders’ equity. The Company did not reissue nor cancel treasury shares during the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. t. Other Comprehensive Loss Other comprehensive loss represents adjustments of foreign currency translation. u. Revenue from Contracts with Customers The Company’s agreements are primarily service and processing contracts, the performance obligations of which range in duration from a few months to one year. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the services is transferred to the customer for an amount, referred to as the transaction price, which reflects the consideration to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component since the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the time of transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and the time the customer pays for these goods or services to be generally one year or less. The Company’s credit terms to customers are in average between thirty and one hundred and fifty days. Nature of Revenue Streams The Company has three main revenue streams, which are POCare development services, cell process development services, including hospital supplies, and POCare cell processing. POCare Development Services Revenue recognized under contracts for POCare development services may, in some contracts, represent multiple performance obligations (where promises to the customers are distinct) in circumstances in which the work packages are not interrelated or the customer is able to complete the services performed. For arrangements that include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. F-17 The Company recognizes revenue when, or as, it satisfies a performance obligation. At contract inception, the Company determines whether the services are transferred over time or at a point in time. Performance obligations that have no alternative use and that the Company has the right to payment for performance completed to date, at all times during the contract term, are recognized over time. All other performance obligations are recognized as revenues by the Company at a point of time (upon completion). Revenues from support services provided to the Company’s customers are recognized as and when the services are provided, because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided. Significant Judgement and Estimates Significant judgment is required to identifying the distinct performance obligations and estimating the standalone selling price of each distinct performance obligation and identifying which performance obligations create assets with alternative use to the Company, which results in revenue recognized upon completion, and which performance obligations are transferred to the customer over time. Cell Process Development Services Revenue recognized under contracts for cell process development services may, in some contracts, represent multiple performance obligations (where promises to the customers are distinct) in circumstances in which the work packages and milestones are not interrelated or the customer is able to complete the services performed independently or by using competitors of the Company. In other contracts when the above circumstances are not met, the promises are not considered distinct, and the contract represents one performance obligation. All performance obligations are satisfied over time, as there is no alternative use to the services it performs, since, in nature, those services are unique to the customer, which retain the ownership of the intellectual property created through the process. For arrangements that include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices. For these contracts, the standalone selling prices are based on the Company’s normal pricing practices when sold separately with consideration of market conditions and other factors, including customer demographics and geographic location. The Company measures the revenue to be recognized over time on a contract-by-contract basis, determining the use of either a cost-based input method or output method, depending on whichever best depicts the transfer of control over the life of the performance obligation. Included in cell process development services is hospital supplies revenue, which is derived principally from the performance of services to hospitals or other medical providers. Revenue is earned and recognized when product and services are received by the customer. POCare Cell Processing Revenues from POCare Cell processing represent performance obligations which are recognized either over, or at a point of time. The progress towards completion is measured on an output measure based on direct measurement of the value transferred to the customer (units produced). Change Orders Changes in the scope of work are common and can result in a change in transaction price, equipment used and payment terms. Change orders are evaluated on a contract-by-contract basis to determine if they should be accounted for as a new contract or as part of the existing contract. Generally, services from change orders are not distinct from the original performance obligation. As a result, the effect that the contract modification has on the contract revenue, and measure of progress, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue when they occur. v. Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Lease classification is governed by five criteria in ASC 842-10-25-2. If any of these five criteria is met, The Company classifies the lease as a finance lease; otherwise, the Company classifies the lease as an operating lease. When determining lease classification, the Company’s approach in assessing two of the mentioned criteria is: (i) generally 75% or more of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset is a major part of the remaining economic life of that underlying asset; and (ii) generally 90% or more of the fair value of the underlying asset comprises substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset. F-18 Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Finance leases are included in property, plants and equipment, net and finance lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent Orgenesis’ right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of the lease payments. The standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases with a term shorter than 12 months. This means that for those leases, the Company does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities but recognizes lease expenses over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Lease terms will include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Orgenesis will exercise or not exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. w. Segment reporting Since the Metalmark Investment, the Company’s business includes two reporting segments: Morgenesis and Therapies. See note 5. x. Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In the first quarter of 2022, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”). The update simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by reducing the number of accounting models and limiting the number of embedded conversion features separately recognized from the primary contract. The guidance also includes targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings per share. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of 2022 using the modified retrospective method which resulted with no material effect. In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation— Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”). The guidance is effective for the Company from January 1, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2021-24 in the first quarter of 2022 which resulted in no material effect. In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10 “Government Assistance (Topic 832),” which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3) the effect of those transactions on an entity’s financial statements. The Company applied the guidance prospectively to all in-scope transactions beginning fiscal year 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements F-19 y. Recently issued accounting pronouncements, not yet adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The guidance will be effective for Smaller Reporting Companies (SRCs, as defined by the SEC) for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2023, including interim periods within that year. The Company will apply the guidance prospectively to transactions occurring on or after January 2023. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers”, which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree. The guidance should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods, for any financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company plans to adopt the new accounting standard effective January 1, 2023 and will apply the guidance prospectively to all business combinations with an acquisition date occurring on or after January 2023. NOTE 3 – REDEEMABLE NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST Metalmarket Investment in Morgenesis LLC On November 4, 2022, the Company and MM OS Holdings, L.P. (“MM”), an affiliate of Metalmark Capital Partners (“Metalmark”), entered into a series of definitive agreements (“MM agreement”) intended to finance, strengthen and expand the Company’s POCare Services business (the “Metalmark Investment”). Pursuant to the Unit Purchase Agreement (the “UPA”), MM agreed to purchase 3,019,651 Class A Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class A Units”), which represents 22.31% of the outstanding equity interests of Morgenesis following the initial closing, for a purchase price of $30,196 thousand, comprised of (i) $20,000 thousand of cash consideration and (ii) the conversion of $10,200 thousand of MM’s then-outstanding senior secured convertible loans previously entered into with MM pursuant to that certain Senior Secured Convertible Loan Agreement, dated as of August 15, 2022, between MM, Morgenesis and the Company. The investment was made at a pre-money valuation of $125,000,000, subject to customary adjustments for debt and accounts receivable and an adjustment related to a certain intercompany loan and closed on November 14, 2022. Following the initial closing, the Company held 77.69% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Morgenesis. If (a) Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate Net Revenue (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $30,000,000 during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2022 (the “First Milestone”) and/or equal to or greater than $50,000,000 during the twelve month period ending December 31 2023 (the “Second Milestone”), and (b) the Company’s shareholders approve the LLC Agreement Terms (as defined below under “Principal Terms of the LLC Agreement”) on the earlier of (x) the date that is seven (7) months following the initial closing date and (y) the date of the Company’s 2023 annual meeting of its shareholders (such stockholder approval hereafter being the “Orgenesis Stockholder Approval” and such Orgenesis Stockholder Approval deadline hereafter being the “Stockholder Approval Deadline”), in accordance with applicable law and in a manner that will ensure that MM is able to exercise its rights under the LLC Agreement (as defined below) without any further action or approval by MM, then MM will pay up to $10,000,000 in cash in exchange for 1,000,000 additional Class A Units if the First Milestone is achieved and $10,000,000 in cash in exchange for 1,000,000 Class B Units Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class B Units”) if the Second Milestone is achieved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the First Milestone is not achieved, but Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate Net Revenue equal or greater to $13,000,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2023, then MM shall make the first $10,000,000 future investment for 1,000,000 Class A Units described above. In the event that the Company fails to obtain Orgenesis Stockholder Approval by the Stockholder Approval Deadline, the Company will not be entitled to receive (but MM may, in its sole discretion, elect to make) the first $10,000,000 future investment or the second future $10,000,000 investment. F-20 At any time until the consummation of a Company IPO or Change of Control (in each case, as defined in the LLC Agreement), MM may, in its sole discretion, elect to invest up to an additional $60,000,000 in Morgenesis (any such investment, an “Optional Investment”) in exchange for certain Class C Preferred Units of Morgenesis (the “Class C Units” and, together with the Class A Units and the Class B Units, the “Preferred Units”). $10,000,000 of such Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C- 1 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $125,000,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time; $25,000,000 of Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C-2 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $156,250,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time; and $25,000,000 of Optional Investment shall be to purchase Class C-3 Preferred Units based on an enterprise value of $250,000,000, with such enterprise value adjusted by any net debt as of such time. The proceeds of the investment will generally be used to fund the activities of Morgenesis and its consolidated subsidiaries. In addition, if, during the twelve month period ending on December 31, 2023, Morgenesis and its subsidiaries generate (i) Net Revenue (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $70,000,000, (ii) Gross Profit (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $35,000,000 and (iii) EBITDA (as defined in the UPA) equal to or greater than $10,000,000, then MM shall make (or cause to be made) a one-time cash payment of $10,000,000 to the Company upon such payment becoming final and binding pursuant to the UPA (the “Earnout Payment”). In connection with the entry into the UPA, each of the Company, Morgenesis and MM entered into the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”) providing for certain restrictions on the disposition of Morgenesis securities, the provisions of certain options and rights with respect to the management and operations of Morgenesis, a right for MM to exchange any units of Morgenesis for shares of the Company’s common stock and certain other rights and obligations. In connection with the entry into the UPA, each of the Company, Morgenesis and MM entered into a services agreement (the “Services Agreement”) under which the Company will provide certain operational services to Morgenesis for an initial term of three years. Also, in connection with the entry into the UPA, each of Morgenesis and Metalmark Management II LLC, an affiliate of Metalmark (“MM Management”), entered into an advisory services and monitoring agreement (the “Monitoring Agreement”) under which MM Management will provide certain analytical and financial and business monitoring services to Morgenesis. Under the Monitoring Agreement, MM Management will be paid a quarterly cash fee equal to 0.25% of the total amount invested by MM in Morgenesis as of the date of any payment and will be entitled to the reimbursement of certain expenses. The Preferred Units have voting rights, may be converted into ordinary shares, and are prioritized over ordinary shares in case of dividend or redemption. The Company considers the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) in order to determine whether the Preferred Units should be classified as a liability. If the instrument is not within the scope of ASC 480, the Company further analyzes the instrument’s characteristics in order to determine whether it should be classified within temporary equity (mezzanine) or within permanent equity in accordance with the provisions of ASC 480-10-S99. The preferred units are not mandatorily or currently redeemable. However, they include a liquidation or deemed liquidation event that would constitute a redemption event that is outside of the Company’s control. As such, all redeemable preferred units have been presented outside of permanent equity as a redeemable non-controlling interest. The Company further analyzed and concluded that the future Preferred Units investments are considered embedded in the initial Preferred Units that were issued and are considered clearly and closely related to the host instrument and therefore should not be bifurcated. NOTE 4 – ACQUISITIONS Purchase of Mida Biotech BV During February 2022, pursuant to the joint venture agreement between the Company and Mida Biotech BV, the Company purchased all the issued shares of Mida for a consideration of $100 thousand. In lieu of cash, the consideration was paid via 29,940 Company shares of Common Stock issued to Mida Biotech BV’s shareholders. Theracell Laboratories See note 13a. F-21 NOTE 5 – SEGMENT INFORMATION Following the Metalmark Investment, the Company separated its operations into two operating segments: Morgenesis operations and therapies. Prior to that, the Company conducted all its operations as one segment. The Morgenesis operations includes mainly POCare Services, while the therapies segment includes the Company’s therapeutic development operations. Because the Company conducted all its operations as one segment prior to the Metalmark Investment, the above changes were reflected through retroactive revision of prior period segment information based on the subsidiaries that were transferred to Morgenesis. Certain activities of these subsidiaries have changed after they were transferred to Morgenesis operations segment. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who is the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), reviews financial information prepared on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues and contributed profit by the two identified reportable segments, namely Morgenesis and Therapies, to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. The Company does not review assets by segment. Therefore, the measure of assets has not been disclosed for each segment. Segment data for the year ended December 31, 2022 is as follows: Morgenesis Therapies Eliminations Consolidated Revenues Revenues from related party Total revenues Cost of revenues, development services and research and development expenses* Operating expenses* Other income, net Depreciation and amortization Impairment expenses Loss from extinguishment in connection with convertible loan Financial Expenses, net Share in net income of associated companies Income (loss) before income taxes $ 33,884 $ 1,284 35,168 (in thousands) 6,432 $ - 6,432 (5,575) $ - (5,575) (17,373) (7,762) 168 (1,006) (420) (13,350) (8,678) 5 (972) (641) - (1,748) (1,352) 5,675 $ (52) (223) (156) (17,635) $ $ 4,675 900 - - - - - - - $ 34,741 1,284 36,025 (26,048) (15,540) 173 (1,978) (1,061) (52) (1,971) (1,508) (11,960) *Excluding Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses Reconciliation of segment performance to loss for the year ended December 31, 2021: Morgenesis Therapies Eliminations Consolidated revenues, development services and Revenues Revenues from related party Total revenues Cost of research and development expenses* Operating expenses* Other income, net Depreciation and amortization Loss from extinguishment in connection with convertible loan Financial Expenses, net Share in net income of associated companies Income (loss) before income taxes $ $ 31,211 $ 3,856 35,067 (21,096) (3,545) 24 (1,020) (in thousands) 11,925 $ (11,490) $ - 11,925 (24,000) (13,287) 2,254 (844) - (11,490) 9,327 2,163 - - - (2,508) (15) 6,907 $ (1,865) 1,216 (257) (24,858) $ - - - - $ 31,646 3,856 35,502 (35,769) (14,669) 2,278 (1,864) (1,865) (1,292) (272) (17,951) *Excluding Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses F-22 NOTE 6 – EQUITY a. Financings In March 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement) with certain investors (collectively, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors, in a private placement (the “Offering”), an aggregate of 4,933,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.50 per share. The warrants are not exercisable until after six months and expire three years from the date of issuance. The Company received proceeds of $2.175 million. The Company does not expect to receive the remaining $12.625 million from the defaulting investors. The Company issued an aggregate of 724,999 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 146,959 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Investors entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to register the resale of the Shares and Underlying Shares on a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by April 3, 2023. b.

As a result, the carrying amount of goodwill assigned to the Morgenesis segment reporting unit was $7 million and $1 million was assigned to the Therapies segment. The Company performed an impairment analysis for these two reporting units. Based on the Company’s assessment as of date of the change in the reporting units, it was concluded that the fair value of each of the Morgenesis and Therapies reporting units exceeded its carrying amount and therefore no goodwill impairment was required. In evaluating the fair value of reporting units under the income approach, the Company used a discounted cash flow model. Key assumptions used to determine the estimated fair value included: (a) internal cash flows forecasts for 5 years following the assessment date, including expected revenue growth, costs to produce, operating profit margins and estimated capital needs; (b) an estimated terminal value using a terminal year long-term future growth determined based on the growth prospects of the reporting units; and (c) a discount rate which reflects the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the Company’s reporting unit operations and the uncertainty inherent in the Company’s internally developed forecasts. Actual results may differ from those assumed in the Company’s valuation method. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s assumptions described above could change in future periods. If any of these were to vary materially from the Company’s plans, it may record impairment of goodwill allocated to any of these reporting units in the future. Other Intangible Assets Other intangible assets consisted of the following: Gross Carrying Amount: Know How Customer relationships Kyslecel Technology IPR&D Subtotal December 31, 2022 2021 (in thousands) $ 2,735 $ 345 9,340 - 12,420 2,904 811 9,340 641 13,696 Less – Accumulated amortization Net carrying amount of other intangible assets $ (2,726) 9,694 $ (1,875) 11,821 Intangible assets amortization expenses were approximately $911 thousand and $948 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Following an annual impairment check, the Company determined that certain IPR&D and customer relationships intangible assets were no longer relevant. Therefore the Company wrote off IPR&D intangible assets in the amount of $641 thousand and customer relationship intangible assets in the amount of $420 thousand in the year ended December 31, 2022. F-25 Estimated aggregate amortization expenses for the five succeeding years ending on December 31st are as follows: Amortization expenses NOTE 9 – CONVERTIBLE LOANS a.

In addition, except for the Metalmark Morgenesis loan conversion mentioned below there were no other conversions during the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. (1)The holders, at their option, may convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under this note into a total of 115,918 shares and 115,918 three-year warrants to purchase up to an additional 115,918 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $7. As of December 31, 2022, the loans are presented in current maturities of convertible notes in the balance sheet. (2)The holders, at their option, may convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under this note into a total of 1,069,602 shares and 1,011,781 three-year warrants to purchase up to an additional 1,011,781 shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share exercise price of $7. As of December 31, 2022, $1,600 thousands of the principal amount is included in current maturities of convertible loans in the balance sheet and the remainder in long-term convertible loans. See also note 9(b). (3)The holders, at their option, may convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under this note into a total of 17,711 shares at a per share exercise price of $7. As of December 31, 2022, all the principal amount is included in short-term convertible loans in the balance sheet. See also note 9(b). (4)The holders, at their option, may convert the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest under this note into a total of 3,678,575 shares at a per share exercise price of between $2.5 $4.5. As of December 31, 2022, all the principal amount is included in short-term convertible loans in the balance sheet. See also note 9(a)6. (5)During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company and certain convertible loan holders (including certain credit line investors, see note 9 (b)) agreed to extend the maturity date on loans due during the fourth quarter of 2021 to June 30, 2023. The loan repayment extension included the loan holders’ right to request that the Company repay them on November 21, 2022 (the “Early Redemption Option”). In consideration for the extension, including for the credit line investors, warrants to purchase 926,413 shares of common stock of the Company were issued to the loan holders at an exercise price of $6.24 per share. During March 2022 the loan holders waived the early redemption option. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the change in terms should be accounted for as a modification. The Company concluded that the change in the terms (including for the credit line investors extension) does not constitute a troubled debt restructuring. The Company therefore applied the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modifications and Extinguishments. The accounting treatment is determined by whether terms of the new debt and original debt are substantially different. The new debt and the old debt are considered “substantially different” pursuant to ASC 470-50 when the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion option is at least 10% of the carrying amount of the original debt instrument immediately before the modification or exchange or the value of the cash flows under the terms of the new debt instrument is at least 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original instrument (including the incremental fair value resulting from issuing new warrants held by the lender). If the original and new debt instruments are substantially different, the original debt is derecognized and the new debt should be initially recorded at fair value, with the difference recognized as an extinguishment gain or loss. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the change in terms should be accounted for as an extinguishment. The extinguishment resulted in a loss of $1,865 thousand recorded in the 12 months ended December 31, 2021. The Company concluded that, since the warrants cannot be exercised prior to the expiry date of the Early Redemption Option, the warrants are considered embedded in the convertible loan and not freestanding instruments. It also concluded that the prepayment option and the embedded warrants should not be bifurcated from the debt host. In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-13, if a convertible debt instrument is issued at a substantial premium, there is a presumption that such premium represents paid-in capital. Since the fair value of the new convertible loan instrument issued as part of the change in terms are higher than the par value of the loan and the premium is substantial, the Company allocated the premium to paid in capital and the reminder to the convertible loan. F-27 The fair value of the conversion feature was estimated using the binomial model. The total fair value of the new instruments is $4.4M (including the credit line agreements). Following are the main estimates and assumptions that were used for the valuation of the new instruments as of the valuation date: Parameter Notional (USD) Accrued Coupon (USD) Coupon Rate Conversion Ratio (USD) Exercise Price (USD) Stock Price (USD) Expected Term (years) Risk Free Rate Volatility Yield 8% Note 1,500,000 224,603 2% Note 750,000 41,945 Warrants 926,413 - - - 6.24 5.02 1.79 0.20% 72.84% - 2.00% 7.00 - 5.02 1.79 0.20% 72.84% 7.84% 8.00% 7.00 - 5.02 1.79 0.20% 72.84% 7.87% (6)During April and May 2022, the Company entered into three convertible loan agreements (the “Convertible Loan Agreements”) with three non-U.S. investors (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders loaned the Company an aggregate of $9.15 million (the “Loan Amount”). Interest is calculated at 6% per annum (based on a 365-day year) and is payable, along with the principal, during or before the third quarter of 2023. At any time prior to or on the maturity date, the Lenders may provide the Company with written notice to convert all or part of the loans into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $4.50 per share (subject to adjustment for certain capital events, such as stock splits) (the “Conversion Price”). In connection with such loans, we issued to the Lenders warrants representing the right to purchase an aggregate of 408,335 shares of Common Stock (which is 25% of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock into which the loans are initially convertible at the Conversion Price), at an exercise price per share of $4.50 per share. Such warrants are exercisable at any time beginning six months and one day after the closing date and ending 36 months after such closing date. On October 23, 2022, the Company entered into a Convertible Loan Extension Agreement with one of the Lenders, which amended the respective Lender’s Convertible Loan Agreement for the $5,000,000 principal Loan Amount as follows: (i) the interest rate increased from 6% to 10% per annum as of April 21, 2022 on the unconverted and then outstanding loan amount; (ii) the maturity date was extended to January 20, 2024; (iii) the Company agreed to issue a warrant to the Lender for the right to purchase 1,111,111 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price per share of $2.50 per share, which is exercisable at any time beginning April 23, 2023 and ending October 23, 2025; and (iv) the Conversion Price was amended to a price per share of $2.50 per share instead of $4.50 per share. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the change in terms should be accounted for as a modification. In addition, on October 23, 2022, the Company entered into a Convertible Loan Extension Agreement with one of the Lenders, which amended the respective Lender’s Convertible Loan Agreement for the $3,000,000 principal Loan Amount as follows: (i) the interest rate increased from 6% to 10% per annum as of May 19, 2022 on the unconverted and then outstanding loan amount; (ii) the maturity date was extended to February 19, 2024; (iii) the Company agreed to issue a warrant to the Lender for the right to purchase 666,666 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price per share of $2.50 per share, which is exercisable at any time beginning April 23, 2023 and ending October 23, 2025; (iv) the prepayment terms were amended to allow the outstanding Loan Amount to be prepaid by the Company at the Lender’s option following any financings by the parent Company, and in the event that any of the Company’s subsidiaries raises financing, the Company will make reasonable commercial efforts to ensure the funds are received in order to repay the loan amount; and (v) the Conversion Price was amended to a price per share of $2.50 per share instead of $4.50 per share. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the change in terms should be accounted for as an extinguishment. The extinguishment resulted in a loss of $459 thousand. In accordance with ASC 470-20-25-13, if a convertible debt instrument is issued at a substantial premium, there is a presumption that such premium represents paid-in capital. Since the fair value of the new convertible loan instrument issued as part of the change in terms are higher than the par value of the loan and the premium is substantial, the Company allocated the premium to paid in capital and the reminder to the convertible loan. During January 2023, following the receipt of a loan financing (see note 21), the Company refunded the entire principal and accrued interest to the Lender). F-28 b. Private Placements During May 2019, the Company entered into a private placement subscription agreement with an investor for $5 million. The lender shall be entitled, at any time prior to or no later than the maturity date, to convert the outstanding amount, into units of (1) shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price per share equal to $7.00 and (2) warrants to purchase an equal number of additional shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $7.00 per share. In June 2019, the Company entered into private placement subscription agreements with lenders for an aggregate unsecured convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $2 million. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company repaid the lenders the debt in full. During 2019, the Company entered into a Private Placement Subscription Agreement and Convertible Credit Line Agreement (collectively, the “Credit Line Agreements”) with certain non-U.S. investors (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders furnished to the Company access to an aggregate $5.0 million credit line (collectively, the “Credit Line”). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Line Agreements and the Notes, the total loan amount, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, became due and payable on the second anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”). The Maturity Date may be extended by each Lender in its sole discretion and shall be in writing signed by the Company and the Lender. Interest on any amount that has been drawn down under the Credit Line accrues at a per annum rate of eight percent (8%). At any time prior to or on the Maturity Date, by providing written notice to the Company, each of the Lenders is entitled to convert its respective drawdown amounts and all accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a conversion price equal to $7.00 per share. During the years ended December 2020, December 2021, and December 2022 the Company repaid principal amounts of $1,400 thousand, $750 thousand and $150 thousand respectively and a total interest amount of $31 thousand, $124 thousand and $29 thousand respectively to certain of the credit line investors. In 2019, the Company entered into private placement subscription agreements with investors for an aggregate amount of $250 thousand. The lenders shall be entitled, at any time prior to or no later than the maturity date, to convert the outstanding amount, into units of 1 share of common stock of the Company at a conversion price per share equal to $7.00. In addition, the Company granted the investors 183,481 warrants to purchase an equal number of additional shares of Common Stock at a price of $7.00 per share. The fair value of the warrants was $124 thousand using the fair value of the shares on the grant date. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company and the investors agreed to extend the maturity of the loans to December 2022. During the year ended December 2022, the Company and certain investors agreed to extend the maturity of the loans to December 2023. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the changes in terms should be accounted for as a modification. During the year ended December 2022, the Company repaid a principal amount of $150 thousand and a total interest amount of $29 thousand to a certain investor. In 2020, the Company entered into private placement subscription agreements with certain investors for an aggregate amount of $250 thousand of convertible loans. The lenders shall be entitled, at any time prior to or no later than the maturity date, to convert the outstanding amount, into shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price per share equal to $7.00. In addition, the Company granted the investors 151,428 warrants to purchase an equal number of additional shares of Common Stock at a price of $7.00 per share. During 2021, the Company and the investors agreed to extend the maturity of the loans to December 2022. During the year ended December 2022, the Company repaid a principal amount of $150 thousand and a total interest amount of $29 thousand to a certain investor. During 2022, the Company and other investors agreed to extend the maturity of the loans to December 2023 and to extend the warrants maturity date to December 2023 and January 2024. Based on the analysis, the Company concluded that the change in terms should be accounted for as a modification. F-29 c. Unsecured Convertible Notes On November 2, 2016, the Company entered into unsecured convertible note agreements with accredited or offshore investors for an aggregate amount of NIS 1 million ($280 thousand). The loan bears a monthly interest rate of 2% and mature on May 1, 2017, unless converted earlier. On April 27, 2017 and November 2, 2017, the Company entered into extension agreements through November 2, 2017 and May 2, 2018, respectively. In March 2018, the investor submitted a notice of its intention to convert into shares of the Company’s common stock the principal amount and accrued interest of approximately $383 thousand outstanding. A related party of such investor at the same time, exercised warrants issued in November 2016 to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The exercise price of the warrants and conversion price were fixed at $0.52 per share (pre-reverse stock split implemented by the Company in November 2017). There is a significant disagreement between the Company and these two entities as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to these entities, and they contend that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to them should not consider the reverse stock split. The Company rejects these contentions in their entirety and, based on the advice of specially retained counsel, believes that these claims are without legal merit and not made in good faith. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests and pursue other avenues of legal address. Through its counsel, the Company has advised these entities that unless they withdraw their request within a specified period, the Company will cancel the above referenced agreements and these parties’ right to receive any shares of the Company’s Common Stock. In April 2018, the Company withdrew the agreements and deposited the shares in total amount of 107,985 issued under those agreements and the principal amount and accrued interest of the loan in escrow account.

Corporate taxation in the U.S. The corporate U.S. Federal Income tax rate applicable to the Company and its US subsidiaries is 21%. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has an accumulated tax loss carryforward of approximately $22 million (as of December 31, 2021, approximately $29 million). For U.S. federal income tax purposes, net operating losses (“NOLs”) arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) limits the ability to utilize NOL carryforwards to 80% of taxable income in tax years beginning after December 31, 2020. In addition, NOLs arising in tax years ending after December 31, 2017 can be carried forward indefinitely, but carryback is generally prohibited. NOLs generated in tax years beginning before January 1, 2018 will not be subject to the taxable income limitation, and NOLs generated in tax years ending before January 1, 2018 will continue to have a two-year carryback and twenty-year carryforward period. Deferred tax assets for NOLs will need to be measured at the applicable tax rate in effect when the NOL is expected to be utilized. The changes in the carryforward/carryback periods as well as the new limitation on use of NOLs may significantly impact the Company’s valuation allowance assessments for NOLs generated after December 31, 2017. In addition, utilization of the NOLs may be subject to substantial annual limitation under Section 382 of the Code due to an “ownership change” within the meaning of Section 382(g) of the Code. An ownership change subjects pre-ownership change NOL carryforwards to an annual limitation, which significantly restricts the ability to use them to offset taxable income in periods following the ownership change. In general, the annual use limitation equals the aggregate value of the Company’s stock at the time of the ownership change multiplied by a specified tax-exempt interest rate. F-46 b. Corporate taxation in Israel The Israeli Subsidiaries are taxed in accordance with Israeli tax laws. The corporate tax rate applicable to 2022 and 2021 are 23%.

The corporate tax rates applicable to 2022, 2021 are 25%. As of December 31, 2022, the Belgian Subsidiary has an accumulated tax loss carryforward of approximately $7 million (€7 million), (as of December 31, 2021 $8 million).

The terms of the NewTech Convertible Loan Agreement and the Malik Loan Agreement are identical. Interest is calculated at 8% per annum (based on a 365-day year); provided, that if an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Loan Agreements) has occurred and is continuing, the Outstanding Amount (as defined herein) will be calculated at 15.0% per annum. The Loan Amount and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon (collectively, the “Outstanding Amount”) shall either (i) be repaid in cash or (ii) convert to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company on the third anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Maturity Date”). The Maturity Date may be extended by the Lender upon the written consent of the Lender. The Outstanding Amount may be prepaid by the Company in whole or in part at any time with the prior approval of the Lender. At any time prior to or on the Maturity Date, any Lender may provide the Company with written notice to convert all or part of the Outstanding Amount into shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Outstanding Amount by (y) a price equal to $2.464 per share (subject to adjustment for certain capital events, such as stock splits) (the “Conversion Price”). Under the terms of the Convertible Loan Agreements, the Company will use the proceeds from the Loan Amount to (i) redeem the loan amount referred to in note 9 (a) between the Company and the lender, and (ii) for general corporate purposes. The entire loan amount and accrued interest was repaid in January 2023. The Company also agreed to issue the NewTech Lender warrants representing the right to purchase 405,844 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $2.50 per share and the Malik Lender warrants representing the right to purchase 101,461 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $2.50 per share.

NOTE 22 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On January 18, 2022, a complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed in the Tel Aviv District Court (the “Court”) against the Company, the Israeli Subsidiary, Orgenesis Ltd., Prof. Sarah Ferber, Vered Caplan and Dr. Efrat Assa Kunik (collectively, the “defendants”) by plaintiffs the State of Israel, as the owner of Chaim Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer (“Sheba”), and Tel Hashomer Medical Research, Infrastructure and Services Ltd. (collectively, the “plaintiffs”). In the Complaint, the plaintiffs are seeking that the Court issue a declaratory remedy whereby the defendants are required to pay royalties to the plaintiffs at the rate of 7% of the sales and 24% of any and all revenues in consideration for sublicenses related to any product, service or process that contains know-how and technology of Sheba and any and all know-how and technology either developed or supervised by Prof. Ferber in the field of cell therapy, including in the category of the point-of-care platform and any and all services and products in relation to the defendants’ CDMO activity. In addition, the plaintiffs seek that the defendants provide financial statements and pay NIS 10 million to the plaintiffs due to the royalty provisions of the license agreement, dated February 2, 2012, between the Israeli Subsidiary and Tel Hashomer Medical Research, Infrastructure and Services Ltd. (the “License Agreement”). The Complaint alleges that the Company and the Israeli Subsidiary used know-how and technology of Sheba and know-how and technology either developed or supervised by Prof. Ferber while employed by Sheba in the field of cell therapy, including in the category of the point-of-care platform and the services and products in relation to the defendants’ CDMO activity and are entitled to the payment of certain royalties pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement. The defendants have filed their statements of defense responding to this Complaint. The Company believes that the allegations in this Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against the claims. Since a material loss is not considered probable, no provision was made in the financial statements. Except as described above, the Company is not involved in any pending material legal proceedings.
