OUR COMPANY
Overview
We are a Phase 3 clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted, locally administered and prolonged-release therapeutics using our proprietary
Polymer-Lipid Encapsulation matriX, or PLEX, technology. Our product candidates are designed to address diseases with high unmet medical
needs by pairing our PLEX technology with drugs already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, or innovative drug
candidates to achieve a novel therapeutic effect. Our PLEX technology is designed to deliver drugs directly to targeted treated sites
in the body at predetermined release rates and predetermined durations ranging from several days to several months. We believe that our
PLEX technology and product candidates have the potential to significantly improve the management of a variety of medical conditions,
including surgical site infections, or SSIs, and cancer. Our lead product candidate, D-PLEX100, is currently in a pivotal Phase 3
confirmatory trial, SHIELD II, for the prevention of surgical site infections in patients undergoing
open colorectal abdominal surgery with large incisions. D-PLEX100 pairs our novel proprietary PLEX technology with doxycycline,
a first-line, broad spectrum and FDA-approved antibiotic. D-PLEX100 is administered directly into the surgical site during
surgery, and provides a prolonged and continuous release of the broad-spectrum antibiotic doxycycline, resulting in high local concentration
of the drug for a period of 30 days for the prevention of SSIs, including SSIs caused by standard of care antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Infections resulting from surgery can be fatal and create a significant public health burden despite the extensive use of systemically
administered antibiotics both pre- and post-operatively and other measures taken to reduce infection risk in the intra-operative setting.
In addition to our lead program D-PLEX100, our pipeline includes an early-stage oncology program, OncoPLEX, PolyPid’s
lead intra-tumoral cancer therapy drug candidate. The OncoPLEX intra-tumoral cancer therapy program has been evaluated successfully in
various animal tumor models, including colon carcinoma, melanoma and glioblastoma.
January 2024 Private Placement of Ordinary
Shares and Warrants
On January 4, 2024, we entered
into a definitive securities purchase agreement, or the Securities Purchase Agreement, for a private placement financing, or the January
2024 Private Placement. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, on January 9, 2024, certain investors purchased 3,143,693 of our
Ordinary Shares at a purchase price of $4.81 per share, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 227,619 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price
of $0.0001 and Warrants to purchase up to 3,371,312 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $5.50 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants do
not expire and the Warrants expire upon the earlier of two years from the date of issuance and 10 trading days following the Company’s
announcement of the positive recommendation by Data Safety Monitoring Board regarding the Company’s unblinded interim analysis in
its SHIELD II Phase 3 trial of D-PLEX100 resulting in the stopping of the
trial due to positive efficacy.
The offering resulted in net
proceeds of approximately $15.0 million. Exercise of the warrants in full would result in an additional $18.5 million in gross proceeds.
We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities for our ongoing SHIELD II phase 3 clinical trial for the prevention
of surgical site infections in patients undergoing abdominal colorectal surgery, working capital and general corporate purposes.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities
involves risks. Please carefully consider the risk factors below, as well as those described in our periodic reports filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including those set forth under the caption “Summary Risk Factors” and “Item 3. Key
Information – D. Risk Factors” in our 2022 Annual Report, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. Before
making an investment decision, you should carefully consider these risks as well as other information we include or incorporate by reference
in this prospectus. You should be able to bear a complete loss of your investment.
We conduct our operations in Israel. Conditions
in Israel, including the recent attack by Hamas and other terrorist organizations and Israel’s war against them, may affect
our operations.
Our headquarters and principal
offices and most of our operations are located in the State of Israel. In addition, all of our key employees and officers are residents
of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business.
Any hostilities involving
Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its present trading partners, or a significant downturn in the economic
or financial condition of Israel, could affect adversely our operations. Ongoing and revived hostilities or other Israeli political or
economic factors could harm our operations, product development and results of operations.
On October 7, 2023, an unprecedented
attack was launched against Israel by terrorists from the Hamas terrorist organization that infiltrated Israel’s southern border
from the Gaza Strip and in other areas within the state of Israel attacking civilians and military targets while simultaneously launching
extensive rocket attacks on the Israeli population. In response, the Security Cabinet of the State of Israel declared war against Hamas.
To date, the State of Israel continues to be at war with Hamas.
Since the war broke out on
October 7, 2023, our operations have not been adversely affected by this situation. However, at this time, it is not possible to predict
the intensity or duration of the war, nor can we predict how this war will ultimately affect Israel’s economy in general and we
continue to monitor the situation closely and examine the potential disruptions that could adversely affect our operations.
In connection with the Israeli
security cabinet’s declaration of war against Hamas and possible hostilities with other organizations, several hundred thousand
Israeli military reservists were drafted to perform immediate military service. As of January 31, 2024, only one of our current employees
in Israel, none of whom are management or key employees, have been called to active military duty, though we rely on service providers
located in Israel and have entered into certain agreements with Israeli counterparties. Employees of such service providers or contractual
counterparties may be called for service in the current or future wars or other armed conflicts with Hamas and such persons may be absent
from their positions for a period of time. As of January 31, 2024, we have not been impacted by any absences of personnel at our service
providers or counterparties located in Israel. However, military service call ups that result in absences of personnel from us, our service
providers or contractual counterparties in Israel may disrupt our operations and absences for an extended period of time may materially
and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Following the attack by Hamas
on Israel’s southern border, Hezbollah, a terrorist organization in Lebanon has also launched missile, rocket, and shooting attacks
against Israeli military sites, troops, and Israeli towns in northern Israel. In response to these attacks, the Israeli army has carried
out a number of targeted strikes on sites belonging to Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. It is possible that other terrorist organizations,
including Palestinian military organizations in the West Bank, as well as other hostile countries, such as Iran, will join the hostilities.
Such hostilities may include terror and missile attacks. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade
between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations. Our insurance policies do not
cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism.
Although the Israeli government
currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that
this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by
us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively
affect business conditions and could harm our results of operations.
Several countries, principally
in the Middle East, still restrict doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, and additional countries may impose restrictions
on doing business with Israel and Israeli companies, whether as a result of hostilities in the region or otherwise. In addition, there
have been increased efforts by activists to cause companies and consumers to boycott Israeli goods and cooperation with Israeli-related
entities based on Israeli government policies. Such actions, particularly if they become more widespread, may adversely impact our ability
to collaborate with other third parties. Any hostilities involving Israel, any interruption or curtailment of trade or scientific cooperation
between Israel and its present partners, or a significant downturn in the economic or financial condition of Israel could adversely affect
our business, financial condition and operations. We may also be targeted by cyber terrorists specifically because we are an Israeli-related
company.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some of the statements made
under “Risk Factors,” “Use of Proceeds,” and elsewhere in this prospectus, including in our 2022 Annual Report,
incorporated by reference herein, and other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, constitute forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are often characterized by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,”
“expect,” “anticipate,”, “plan,” “estimate,” “continue,” “believe,”
“should,” “intend,” “project,” “predict,” “potential” or other similar words,
but are not the only way these statements are identified.
These forward-looking statements
may include, but are not limited to, statements relating to our objectives, plans and strategies, statements that contain projections
of results of operations or of financial condition, expected capital needs and expenses, statements relating to the research, development,
completion and use of our products, and all statements (other than statements of historical facts) that address activities, events or
developments that we intend, expect, project, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future.
Forward-looking statements
are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties. We have based these forward-looking statements on
assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions,
expected future developments and other factors they believe to be appropriate.
Important factors that could
cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements
include, among other things:
| ● | our
dependence on enrollment of patients in our clinical trials in order to continue development of our product candidates; |
| | |
| ● | the
outcomes of our anticipated interim analysis in our SHIELD II clinical trial; |
| | |
| ● | our
ability to raise capital through the issuance of securities; |
| | |
| ● | our
ability to advance the development of our product candidates, including the anticipated starting and ending dates of our anticipated
clinical trials; |
| | |
| ● | our
assessment of the potential of our product candidates to treat certain indications; |
| | |
| ● | our
ability to successfully receive approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, European Medicines Agency, or other applicable
regulatory bodies, including approval to conduct clinical trials, the scope of those trials and the prospects for regulatory approval
of, or other regulatory action with respect to our product candidates, including the regulatory pathway to be designated to our product
candidates; |
| ● | the
regulatory environment and changes in the health policies and regimes in the countries in which we operate, including the impact of any
changes in regulation and legislation that could affect the pharmaceutical industry; |
| ● | our
ability to commercialize our existing product candidates and future sales of our existing product candidates or any other future potential
product candidates; |
| ● | our
ability to meet our expectations regarding the commercial supply of our product candidates; |
| ● | the
overall global economic environment; |
| ● | the
impact on us, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the markets in which the Company operates; |
| ● | the
impact of competition and new technologies; |
| ● | general
market, political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate; |
| ● | projected
capital expenditures and liquidity; |
| ● | changes
in our strategy; |
| ● | those
factors referred to in “Item 3. Key Information – D. Risk Factors,” “Item 4. Information on the Company,”
and “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects”, in our 2022 Annual Report. |
These statements are only
current predictions and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s
actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those anticipated by the forward-looking
statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.
Although we believe that the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance,
or achievements. Except as required by law, we are under no duty to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this prospectus.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds
from the sale of the Ordinary Shares by the selling shareholders. All net proceeds from the sale of the Ordinary Shares covered by this
prospectus will go to the selling shareholders. However, we will receive cash proceeds equal to the total exercise price of the Warrants
and Pre-Funded Warrants that are exercised.
We intend to use the proceeds
from the exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants for our ongoing SHIELD II phase 3 clinical trial for the prevention of surgical
site infections in patients undergoing abdominal colorectal surgery, working capital and general corporate purposes.

This
above table is based on 4,797,252 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of January 31, 2024, and excludes Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise
of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Warrants (except as otherwise specified) and:
| ● | 254,251
Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of option outstanding under our Amended and Restated
2012 Share Option Plan, or the 2012 Plan, at a weighted average exercise price of $22.72
per share, of which 71,606 were vested as of January 31, 2024; |
| ● | 52,576
Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance and available for future grant under our 2012 Plan;
and |
| ● | 7,088
Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares,
at a weighted average exercise price of $51.97 per Ordinary Share. |
SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The Ordinary Shares being
offered by the selling shareholders are those previously issued to the selling shareholders, and those issuable to the selling shareholders,
upon exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of those Ordinary Shares, Warrants
and Pre-Funded Warrants, see “January 2024 Private Placement of Ordinary Shares and Warrants” above. We are registering
the Ordinary Shares in order to permit the selling shareholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership
of the Ordinary Shares, Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, the selling shareholders have not had any material relationship with us within
the past three years.
To
our knowledge, within the past three years, none of the selling shareholders has held a position as an officer or a director of ours,
nor had any other material relationship of any kind with us or any of our affiliates.
A
selling shareholder who is an affiliate of a broker-dealer and any participating broker-dealer is deemed to be an “underwriter”
within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commissions or discounts given to any such selling shareholder or broker-dealer may
be regarded as underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. To our knowledge, except as set forth below, none of the
selling shareholders is an affiliate of a broker-dealer and there are no participating broker-dealers.
The
term “selling shareholder” also includes any transferees, pledgees, donees, or other successors in interest to the selling
shareholders named in the table below.
The table below lists the
selling shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the ordinary shares by each of the selling shareholders.
The second column lists the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by each selling shareholder, based on its ownership of the Ordinary
Shares, Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, as of January 31, 2024, assuming exercise of the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants held by the
selling shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises.
The third column lists the
Ordinary Shares being offered by this prospectus by the selling shareholders.
In accordance with the terms
of a registration rights agreement with the selling shareholders, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) the number
of Ordinary Shares issued to the selling shareholders in the “Private Placement of Ordinary Shares and Warrants” described
above and (ii) the maximum number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the related Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, determined
as if the outstanding Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this
registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination
and all subject to adjustment as provided in the registration right agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the
Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the selling shareholders pursuant
to this prospectus.
Under the terms of the Warrants
and Pre-Funded Warrants, a selling shareholder may not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling shareholder,
together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of ordinary shares which would exceed 4.99%, 9.99%
or 24.99%, as applicable, of our then outstanding Ordinary Shares following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination
Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants which have not been exercised. The number of shares in
the second and fourth columns do not reflect this limitation. The selling shareholders may sell all, some or none of their shares in this
offering. See “Plan of Distribution.”
The selling shareholders are
not making any representation that any Ordinary Shares covered by this prospectus will be offered for sale. Because we do not know how
long each of the selling shareholders will hold the Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants, whether any will exercise the Warrants and Pre-Funded
Warrants and, upon such exercise, how long each such selling shareholder will hold the Ordinary Shares before selling them, and because
each of the selling shareholders may dispose of all, none or some portion of its securities, no estimate can be given as to the number
of securities that will be beneficially owned by a selling shareholder upon completion of this offering. In addition, each selling shareholder
may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of its securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act after the date on which the information in the table is presented.
We may amend or supplement
this prospectus from time to time in the future to update or change the selling shareholders list and the securities that may be resold.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Ordinary Shares subject to options or warrants currently exercisable, or exercisable within 60 days of January 31, 2024, are counted as outstanding for computing the percentage of the selling shareholder holding such options or warrants but are not counted as outstanding for computing the percentage of any other selling shareholder. |

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Each Selling Stockholder,
or the Selling Stockholders, of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time,
sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal Nasdaq or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on
which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may
use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
| ● | ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers; |
| ● | block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as
principal to facilitate the transaction; |
| ● | purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account; |
| ● | an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| ● | privately
negotiated transactions; |
| ● | settlement
of short sales; |
| ● | in
transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated
price per security; |
| ● | through
the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| ● | a
combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| ● | any
other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Stockholders may
also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under
this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by
the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts
from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts
to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a
customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in
compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
In connection with the sale
of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling
Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities
to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with
broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer
or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution
may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Stockholders and
any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning
of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any
profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities
Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly
or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to
pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify
the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to keep this prospectus
effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and
without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance
with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities
have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities
will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in
certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable
state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and
regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the
resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the ordinary shares for the applicable restricted
period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject
to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing
of purchases and sales of the ordinary shares by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus
available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or
prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).
Offer Restrictions Outside the United States
Other than in the United States,
no action has been taken by us or the Selling Shareholders that would permit a public offering of the securities offered by this prospectus
in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The securities offered by this prospectus may not be offered or sold, directly
or indirectly, nor may this prospectus or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such
securities be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable
rules and regulations of that jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this prospectus comes are advised to inform themselves about

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are incorporated under
the laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers and the Israeli experts named in the registration
statement of which this prospectus forms a part, a substantial majority of whom reside outside of the United States, may be difficult
to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and a substantial of our directors and officers
are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of our directors and officers may
not be collectible within the United States.
We have been informed by our
legal counsel in Israel, Sullivan & Worcester Tel-Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law
claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws
because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a 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 Israeli law.
Subject to specified time
limitations and legal procedures, Israeli courts may enforce a U.S. judgment in a civil matter which, subject to certain exceptions, is
non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and including
a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:
|
● |
the judgment is obtained after due process before a court of competent jurisdiction according to the laws of the state in which the judgment is given and the rules of private international law currently prevailing in Israel; |
|
● |
the judgment is final and is not subject to any right of appeal; |
|
● |
the prevailing law of the foreign state in which the judgment was rendered allows for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts; However, the court may enforce a foreign judgment, even without reciprocity, based on the request of the Attorney General, under certain circumstances; |
|
● |
adequate service of process has been effected and the defendant has had a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to present his or her evidence; |
|
● |
the liabilities under the judgment are enforceable according to the laws of the State of Israel and the judgment and the enforcement of the civil liabilities set forth in the judgment is not contrary to the law or public policy in Israel nor likely to impair the security or sovereignty of Israel; |
|
● |
the judgment was not obtained by fraud, there was no reasonable opportunity for the defendant to present his case, the judgment was given by a court not authorized to issue it under the applicable international private law rules in Israel, and the judgement does not conflict with any other valid judgments in the same matter between the same parties; |
|
● |
an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the lawsuit is instituted in the foreign court; |
|
● |
the judgment is enforceable according to the law of the foreign state in which the relief was granted; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
enforcement may be denied if it could harm the sovereignty or security of Israel. |
If a foreign judgment is declared
enforceable by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency. The conversion to Israeli currency will be based on
the exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel on the payment day—the latest official rate published by the Bank of Israel before
the payment date. However, the obligated party will fulfill their duty by the judgment even if they choose to make the payment in the
same foreign currency, subject to the laws governing the foreign currency applicable at that time.
Pending collection, the amount
of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli consumer price index plus interest
at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange
rates.
WHERE YOU CAN FIND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
We are an Israeli company
and are a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt
from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal
shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
In addition, we are not required
under the Exchange Act to file annual, quarterly and current reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly
as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we file with the SEC, within 120 days after the end
of each fiscal year, or such applicable time as required by the SEC, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited
by an independent registered public accounting firm, and submit to the SEC, on a Form 6-K, unaudited interim financial information.
We maintain a corporate website
at http://www.polypid.com. We will post on our website any materials required to be so posted on such website under applicable corporate
or securities laws and regulations, including any notices of general meetings of our shareholders.

Item 8. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Indemnification
The Israeli Companies Law
5759-1999, or the Companies Law, and the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, or the Securities Law, provide that a company may indemnify
an office holder against the following liabilities and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either
pursuant to an undertaking made in advance of an event or following an event, provided its articles of association include a provision
authorizing such indemnification:
|
● |
a financial liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person by any judgment concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office holder, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court; |
|
● |
reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder (a) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (1) no indictment (as defined in the Companies Law) was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (2) no financial liability as a substitute for the criminal proceeding (as defined in the Companies Law) was imposed upon him or her as a result of such investigation or proceeding, or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; or (b) in connection with a monetary sanction; |
|
● |
reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by the office holder or imposed on him or her by a court: (1) in proceedings that the company institutes, or that another person institutes on the company’s behalf, or by another person, against him or her; (2) in a criminal proceeding of which he or she was acquitted; or (3) as a result of a conviction for a crime that does not require proof of criminal intent; and |
|
● |
expenses incurred by an office holder in connection with an Administrative Procedure under the Securities Law, including reasonable litigation expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees. An “Administrative Procedure” is defined as a procedure pursuant to chapters H3 (Monetary Sanction by the Israeli Securities Authority), H4 (Administrative Enforcement Procedures of the Administrative Enforcement Committee) or I1 (Arrangement to prevent the Initiation of Procedures or to Conclude Proceedings, subject to conditions) to the Securities Law. |
The Companies Law also permits
a company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, provided that if such indemnification relates to financial liability
imposed on him or her, as described above, then the undertaking should be limited and shall detail the following foreseen events and amount
or criterion:
|
● |
to events that in the opinion of the board of directors can be foreseen based on the company’s activities at the time that the undertaking to indemnify is made; and |
|
● |
in amount or criterion determined by the board of directors, at the time of the giving of such undertaking to indemnify, to be reasonable under the circumstances. |
We have entered into indemnification
agreements with all of our directors and with all members of our senior management. Each such indemnification agreement provides the office
holder with indemnification permitted under applicable law and up to a certain amount, and to the extent that these liabilities are not
covered by directors’ and officers’ insurance.
Exculpation
Under the Companies Law, an
Israeli company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exculpate in advance
an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach
of his or her duty of care (other than in relation to distributions), but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included
in its articles of association. Our articles of association and our letter of exculpation provide that we may exculpate, in whole or in
part, any office holder from liability to us for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of his or her duty of care, but
prohibit an exculpation from liability arising from a company’s transaction in which our controlling shareholder or officer has
a personal interest. Subject to the aforesaid limitations, under the indemnification agreements, we exculpate and release our office holders
from any and all liability to us related to any breach by them of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Limitations
The Companies Law provides
that the Company may not exculpate or indemnify an office holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for
any liability incurred as a result of any of the following: (1) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty unless (in
the case of indemnity or insurance only, but not exculpation) the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe
that the act would not prejudice us; (2) a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the breach was carried out intentionally
or recklessly (as opposed to merely negligently); (3) any act or omission committed with the intent to derive an illegal personal benefit;
or (4) any fine, monetary sanction, penalty or forfeit levied against the office holder.
Under the Companies Law, exculpation,
indemnification and insurance of office holders in a public company must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors
and, with respect to certain office holders or under certain circumstances, also by the shareholders.
Our articles of association
permit us to exculpate (subject to the aforesaid limitation), indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted
or to be permitted by the Companies Law.

Item 10. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period
in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
| (i) | To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of
the Securities Act of 1933; |
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which
was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration
statement. |
| (iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration
statement; |
provided, however, that paragraphs
(a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and a(l)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3 and the information required
to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant
pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration
statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration
by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) To file a post-effective
amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed
offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Act need
not be furnished, provided, that the registrant includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements
required pursuant to this paragraph (a)(4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at
least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on
Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of
the Act or Rule 3-19 of this chapter if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished
to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
by reference in the Form F-3.
(5) That, for the purpose
of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
|
(i) |
If the Registrant is relying on Rule 430B: |
|
A. |
Each prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and |
|
B. |
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date. |
(6) That, for the purpose
of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities
the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration
statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to
such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will
be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
| (i) | Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
| (ii) | Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the
undersigned registrant; |
| (iii) | The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant
or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
| (iv) | Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser. |
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report
pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration
statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion
of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirement
of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for filing on Form F-3 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized,
in the city of Petach Tikva the state of Israel on February 1, 2024.

Re: Registration Statement on Form F-3
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as Israeli counsel
to PolyPid Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), in connection with its
registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the registration
of the re-sale by the selling shareholders identified in the Registration Statement (the “Selling Shareholders”) consisting
of (i) up to 3,143,693 ordinary shares no par value per share of the Company (the “Shares”); (ii) up to 3,371,312 Shares
issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the “Warrants”); and (iii) up to 227,619 shares issuable upon the exercise
of pre-funded warrants (the: “Pre-Funded Warrants), all of which may be offered and sold from time to time by certain of the
selling shareholders listed in the Registration Statement.
We are acting as Israeli counsel
for the Company in connection with the Registration Statement. In connection herewith, we have examined the originals or copies, certified
or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Registration Statement, to which this opinion is attached as an exhibit, (ii)
a copy of the articles of association of the Company (the “Articles”); (iii) resolutions of the board of directors
of the Company which have heretofore been approved and which relate to the Registration Statement and the actions to be taken in connection
with the offering of the securities; and (iv) such other corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates
or comparable documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, as we have deemed relevant and necessary
as a basis for the opinions hereafter set forth. We have also made inquiries of such officers and representatives as we have deemed relevant
and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereafter set forth.
In our examination of the
foregoing documents, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals,
the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents
and the legal competence of all signatories to such documents. Other than our examination of the documents indicated above, we have made
no other examination in connection with this opinion.
We have further assumed that
at the time of issuance and to the extent any such issuance would exceed the maximum share capital of the Company currently authorized,
the number of Shares that the Company is authorized to issue shall have been increased in accordance with the Company’s Articles
such that a sufficient number of Shares are authorized and available for issuance under the Articles.
Based upon and subject to
the foregoing, we are of the opinion that (i) the Shares, issued as described in the Registration Statement, are validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable; and (ii) the issuance of the Shares underlying the Warrants and the Pre-Funded Warrants, when issued and sold
by the Company and delivered by the Company against receipt of the exercise price therefor, in accordance with the terms thereof, including
the receipt of the consideration therefor by the Company, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We are members of the Israel
Bar, and we express no opinion as to any matter relating to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Israel and
have not, for the purpose of giving this opinion, made any investigation of the laws of any other jurisdiction than the State of Israel.
The opinions set forth herein are made as of the date hereof and are subject to, and may be limited by, future changes in the factual
matters set forth herein, and we undertake no duty to advise you of the same. The opinions expressed herein are based upon the law in
effect (and published or otherwise generally available) on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement these
opinions should such law be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise. In rendering our opinions, we have not considered,
and hereby disclaim any opinion as to, the application or impact of any laws, cases, decisions, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction,
court or administrative agency. This opinion is expressly limited to the matters set forth above, and we render no opinion, whether by
implication or otherwise, as to any other matters.
This opinion is rendered to
you in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement. This opinion may not be relied upon for any other purpose, or furnished
to, quoted or relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation for any purpose, without our prior written consent, except that (A)
this opinion may be furnished or quoted to judicial or regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over you, and (B) this opinion may be
relied upon by purchasers and Selling Shareholders of the securities covered by the Registration Statement currently entitled to rely
