The Company has also offered to those purchasers, whose purchase of Series 1 units in in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if such purchaser so chooses, to purchase, in lieu of some or all Series 1 units, up to 15,673,981 Series 2 units. Each Series 2 unit will consist of one pre-funded Series 2024-B warrant to purchase one ordinary share (the “Series 2024-B Warrants”; and with the Series 2024-A Warrants and the Series 2024-C Warrants, the “Warrants”) and one Series 2024-A Warrant and one Series C Warrant The Securities are to be sold by the Company pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement “) to be entered into by and between the Company and the purchasers signatory thereto, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.20 to the Registration Statement.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject also to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

 

the Warrants and the Series 1 units and the Series 2 units have been duly authorized for issuance, and, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued and will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and equitable principles of general applicability.
