DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT’S SECURITIES REGISTERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

 

As of March 26, 2020, Wize Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) has one class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Common Shares are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “WIZP”. The following is a summary of some of the terms of the Company’s Common Shares, This summary is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Articles”) and Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”). The terms of the Common Shares are also subject to and qualified by the applicable Delaware law.

 

Authorized Capital Stock

 

Under our Articles, we are authorized to issue up to five hundred million (500,000,000) shares of Common Stock, and one million (1,000,000) shares of preferred stock, no par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”).

 

Common Stock

 

Holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Holders of our Common Stock have no cumulative voting rights. Further, holders of our Common Stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to share in all assets remaining after payment of all liabilities and the liquidation preferences of any of our outstanding shares of preferred stock. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors (the “Board”) out of our assets which are legally available. Such dividends, if any, are payable in cash, in property or in shares of capital stock.

 

The holders of shares of our Common Stock are entitled to cast at least 33⅓ of the total votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all of our outstanding capital stock, present in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting. If a quorum is present, an action by stockholders entitled to vote on a matter is approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, with the exception of the election of directors, which requires a plurality of the votes cast, represented in person or by proxy, necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting. If a quorum is present, an action by stockholders entitled to vote on a matter is approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the action exceeds the number of votes cast in opposition to the action, with the exception of the election of directors, which requires a plurality of the votes cast.

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Preferred Stock may be issued without stockholder approval, from time to time in one or more series, each series to be appropriately designated by a distinguishing letter or title prior to the issuance of any shares thereof, as determined by our Board. Our Articles expressly authorizes (subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock pursuant to the terms of our Articles or any resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such series of stock adopted by the Board) the increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) of the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

 

Our Board may authorize the issuance of Preferred Stock with voting or conversion rights that could harm the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of us and might harm the market price of our Common Stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of Common Stock.

On October 22, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Certificate of Designations”) with the Secretary of State of Delaware. Pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designations, the Company designated 1,350 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share and is convertible into shares of Common Stock in an amount determined by dividing the stated value of $1,000 by the conversion price of $1.00, such that each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of Common Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock may not be converted into Common Stock to the extent such conversion would cause the holder to beneficially own more than 4.99% (or 9.99%, at the election of the investor) of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to dividends on an as-converted basis with the Common Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock votes with the Common Stock on an as-converted basis, subject to the beneficial ownership limitation.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, Our Articles and Bylaws

 

The provisions of Delaware law, our Articles and our Bylaws could discourage or make it more difficult to accomplish a proxy contest or other change in our management or the acquisition of control by a holder of a substantial amount of our voting stock. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish, or could deter, transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interests or in our best interests. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our Board and in the policies formulated by our Board and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of our control. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.

 

Delaware Statutory Business Combinations Provision

 

We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three (3) years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. For purposes of Section 203, a “business combination” is defined broadly to include a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder, and, subject to certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three (3) years prior, did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.

 

Advance Notice Provisions for Stockholder Proposals and Stockholder Nominations of Directors

 

Our Bylaws provide that, for nominations to our Board or for other business to be properly brought by a stockholder before a meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must first have given timely notice of the proposal in writing to our secretary at our principal offices. For an annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered not less than 45 days nor more than 75 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the date on which we first mailed our proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders. For an annual meeting, the notice must generally be delivered not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement is first made. Detailed requirements as to the form of the notice and information required in the notice are specified in our Bylaws. If it is determined that business was not properly brought before a meeting in accordance with our Bylaws, such business will not be conducted at the meeting.

 

 

 

 

Special Meetings of Stockholders

 

Special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by either (i) the chairman of our Board, chief executive officer, or the president, (ii) by our Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of directors which we would have if there were no vacancies, or (iii) by the holders of 20% of the total votes entitled to be cast by the holders of all our outstanding capital stock entitled to vote generally in an election of directors.

 

Stockholder Action by Written Consent

 

Each of our Articles and our Bylaws permit our stockholders to act by written consent.

 

Super Majority Stockholder Vote Required for Certain Actions

 

The DGCL generally provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, unless the corporation’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, as the case may be, requires a greater percentage. Our Articles requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66⅓ of our outstanding voting stock to amend or repeal any provision of the our Bylaws or any amend or repeal any provision of our Articles relating to limitation of director liability, indemnification and advancement of expenses or amendments to our Articles or our Bylaws. All other provisions of our Articles may be amended or repealed by a simple majority vote of our Board.
