NON-TRADEABLE AMERICAN DEPOSITORY SHARE purchase warrant
In accordance with the Private Placement Agreement, by and between Alarum Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) and ______ (the “Investor”) dated August 29, 2023 (the “Agreement”), the Company hereby grants the Investor non-tradeable warrants of the Company which are convertible into ___ American Depository Shares, each representing ten ordinary shares of the Company, no par value per share (the “ADSs”), in consideration for an aggregate exercise price of $___ ($____ for each ADS), subject to the following terms hereof (the “Warrant”). Terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement:
1. | WARRANTS; EXERCISE PRICE |
The Company hereby grants the Investor, for no consideration, non-tradeable Warrants which are exercisable into [*] ADSs, in consideration for an aggregate exercise price equal to $___ (“Exercise Amount”). The exercise price for ADS is $2.72 (the “Exercise Price”).
2. | EXERCISE OF WARRANT |
2.1. | The Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part, subject to Investor’s decision. No fractional ADSs shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant. The number of ADSs to be issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall be rounded down to the nearest whole ADS. |
2.2. | The Warrant’s exercise period shall begin on the issuance date of each Unit pursuant to Section 3 of the Agreement to which this Warrant is annexed (the “Effective Date”) and for a period of two and a half years (2.5) years thereafter (the “Exercise Period” and the “Expiration Date,” respectively). Warrants that will not be exercised in whole or in part until the Expiration Date, shall automatically expire and shall not confer any right to the Investor. |
2.3. | The Investor may exercise the Warrants, in whole or in part, only during the Exercise Period. The Warrant shall be exercised by delivering a written exercise notice of the Warrant, in whole or in part (“Exercise Notice”). The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by this Warrant and payment (by cash or bank wire transfer) of the aggregate Exercise Amount. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered to the Company’s registered office, during normal working hours and addressed to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and the Company’s Legal Counsel. If the Warrant shall be exercised solely in part prior to its Expiration Date, then the Company shall issue to the Investor a new Warrant covering only the balance of the ADSs covered by the Warrant. |
2.4. | Cashless Exercise. This Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, by means of a “cashless exercise”, which will be available until a registration statement covering the resale of the ADSs issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In “cashless exercise” the Investor shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where: |
(A) | = | as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b)(64) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Investor, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Ordinary Shares on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. as of the time of the Investor’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day; |
(B) | = | the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and |
(X) | = | the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise. |
If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2.4.
“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Ordinary Shares for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by the Company in good faith, taking into consideration customary valuation metrics and methodologies.
“Trading Day” means a day on which the Ordinary Share is traded on a Trading Market.
“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Ordinary Shares then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Ordinary Shares are not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Ordinary Shares are then reported in the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per Ordinary Share so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of an Ordinary Share as determined by the Company in good faith, taking into consideration customary valuation metrics and methodologies.

3. | Adjustments due to Equity Reorganizations |

3.2. | Rights Offering. In the event of a rights offering conducted by the Company, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to reflect the benefit provided by the rights offering with respect to the Company’s share price at the same date. |
3.3. | Dividend; Benefit Shares. In the event the Company distributes cash dividends or Benefit Shares, no adjustments shall be made in the Warrants or with respect to the Exercise Price. |
3.4. | For avoidance of doubt, the Warrant shall not be converted into ADSs on the effective date of any dividend distribution, distribution of Benefits Shares, rights offering, share split, share consolidation or equity reduction (“Special Event”). Should the X-day of any Special Event occur prior to the effective date of any Special Event, the Warrant shall not be converted on such X-day. |
