PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS — SUBJECT TO COMPLETION — DATED NOVEMBER 2, 2022

SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.0001 PER SHARE TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED MERGER OF AIROBOTICS LTD. WITH TALOS SUB LTD., A WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF ONDAS HOLDINGS INC.

THIS IS NOT A PROXY STATEMENT OR NOTICE OF MEETING. WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY.

This prospectus of Ondas Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Ondas,” “us” or “we”), relates to shares of Ondas common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Ondas common stock”), to be issued to the holders of ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 (“Airobotics ordinary shares”), of AIROBOTICS Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Airobotics”), as provided for in the Agreement of Merger, dated as of August 4, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Ondas, Airobotics and Talos Sub Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and a wholly owned subsidiary of Ondas (“Merger Sub”). A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this prospectus.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with the Companies Law 5759-1999 of the State of Israel (together with the rules and regulations thereunder, the “ICL”), at the effective time of the merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub (as the target company, or Chevrat HaYaad) will be merged with and into Airobotics (as the absorbing company, or HaChevra HaKoletet), which shall continue as the surviving corporation of the merger, with Airobotics thereby becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Ondas (the “Merger”).

At the effective time of the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, each Airobotics ordinary share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than Airobotics ordinary shares owned by Airobotics or its subsidiaries (dormant or otherwise) or by Ondas or Merger Sub) shall be exchanged for and converted into the right to receive 0.16806 fully paid and nonassessable share of Ondas common stock without interest and subject to applicable tax withholdings (the “Merger Consideration”). All fractional shares of Ondas common stock that would otherwise be issued to a holder of Airobotics ordinary shares as part of the Merger Consideration will be rounded up to the nearest whole based on the total number of shares of Ondas common stock to be issued to the holder of Airobotics ordinary shares (after aggregating all fractional Ondas common stock issuable to such holder).

Upon the completion of the Merger, based on the exchange ratio of 0.16806 (the “Exchange Ratio”), the estimated number of shares of Ondas common stock issuable as the Merger Consideration is approximately 4,501,132 shares, which will result in former Airobotics shareholders holding approximately 8.4% of the outstanding fully diluted Ondas common stock, based on the number of outstanding shares of Ondas common stock and outstanding stock-based awards of Ondas and the number of outstanding Airobotics ordinary shares and share-based awards of Airobotics as of July 1, 2022, the last trading day for Ondas common stock prior to the announcement of the Merger.

The Ondas common stock is publicly traded on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“Nasdaq”), under the ticker symbol “ONDS.” Following the effectiveness of the Merger, the Ondas common stock will also be listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”), subject to the obtaining of the applicable permits and approvals. We urge you to obtain current market quotations for the Ondas common stock.

The Merger Agreement provides that the effective time of the Merger will be upon the issuance by the Registrar of Companies of the State of Israel (the “Companies Registrar”), of a certificate evidencing the Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (the “Effective Time”). The Merger is subject to approval by the holders of Airobotics ordinary shares at a shareholder meeting. The special meeting of the holders of Airobotics ordinary shares will be held on November 17, 2022 beginning at 15:00, Israel Time, at the offices of Airobotics at 8 Modi’in Street, Petah Tikva, Israel 4969107 (the special meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof, the “Airobotics special meeting”). These matters are discussed in greater detail in the notice of shareholders meeting that was issued to Airobotics shareholders by Airobotics and which constitutes a proxy statement in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Israel Securities Authority (the “ISA”). At the time of the Airobotics special meeting, holders of Airobotics ordinary shares will not know the exact value of the Merger Consideration that they will receive upon the closing of the Merger.

We urge you to read the accompanying prospectus, including the Annexes and the documents incorporated by reference, carefully and in its entirety. In particular, we urge you to read carefully the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 17.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the Merger or the other transactions described in this prospectus or the securities to be issued in connection with the Merger or determined if this prospectus is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE TRANSACTION

The following questions and answers briefly address some of the questions you may have about the Merger, the Merger Agreement and the Airobotics special meeting. They may not include all the information that is important to shareholders of Airobotics. Shareholders of Airobotics should carefully read this entire prospectus, including the annexes and the other documents referred to or incorporated by reference herein. Shareholders of Airobotics should pay special attention to the “Risk Factors” of this prospectus and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” of this prospectus.

Q:     What is the Merger?

A:     Ondas, Airobotics and Merger Sub have entered into an Agreement of Merger, dated as of August 4, 2022 (as the same may be amended from time to time). A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this prospectus. Under the Merger Agreement, subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and described hereinafter and in accordance with the ICL, Merger Sub will merge with and into Airobotics, with Airobotics continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Ondas. As a result of the Merger, Airobotics will no longer be a publicly-held company in the State of Israel. Following the Merger, Airobotics ordinary shares will be delisted from the TASE, in accordance with applicable rules and policies of the TASE.

Q:     Why am I receiving these materials?

A:     Airobotics has agreed, subject to approval of the Airobotics shareholders, to be acquired by Ondas under the terms of the Merger Agreement that are described in this prospectus. At the Airobotics special meeting, Airobotics will ask its shareholders to consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger (the “Merger Proposal”).

         Each Airobotics ordinary share is entitled to one vote on the Merger Proposal. On the record date of the Airobotics special meeting there were 16,914,202 Airobotics ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Approval of the Merger Proposal requires an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes casts by holders of Airobotics ordinary shares, whether casted in person or by proxy.

         If the Merger Proposal is approved at the Airobotics special meeting and the other conditions to consummation of the Merger are satisfied or waived, then at the consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Airobotics, with Airobotics surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Ondas. As a result of the Merger, Airobotics shareholders will receive shares of Ondas common stock in exchange for their Airobotics ordinary shares as described below. You are receiving this prospectus because Ondas is registering under the Securities Act the shares of Ondas common stock that is part of the Merger Consideration that will be issued to you upon completion of the Merger.

         This prospectus includes important information about the Merger, the Merger Agreement (a copy of which is attached as Annex A to this prospectus) and the shares of Ondas common stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger. Airobotics shareholders should read this information carefully and in its entirety.

         However, please be aware that this prospectus is not a proxy statement or notice of meeting and that we are not asking you for a proxy and you are requested not to send us a proxy. Airobotics will issue to you a notice of the Airobotics special meeting, which will contain important information about the Airobotics special meeting and constitute a proxy statement in accordance with the rules and regulations of the ISA.

Q:     What will Airobotics shareholders receive in the Merger?

A:     If the Merger is completed, each Airobotics ordinary share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Companies Registrar issuing a certificate evidencing the merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (other than shares owned by Airobotics or its subsidiaries (dormant or otherwise) or by Ondas or Merger Sub), shall be exchanged for and converted into the right to receive 0.16806 of fully paid and nonassessable share of Ondas common stock without interest and subject to applicable tax withholdings.

         All fractional shares of Ondas common stock that would otherwise be issued to a holder of Airobotics ordinary shares as part of the Merger Consideration will be rounded up to the nearest whole share based on the total number of shares of Ondas common stock to be issued to the holder of Airobotics ordinary share (after aggregating all fractional Ondas common stock issuable to such holder).

Q:     What equity stake will Airobotics shareholders hold in Ondas immediately following the Merger?

A:     Upon the completion of the Merger, based on the exchange ratio of 0.16806, the estimated number of shares of Ondas common stock issuable as the Merger Consideration is approximately 4,501,132 shares, which will result in former Airobotics shareholders holding approximately 8.4% of the outstanding fully diluted Ondas common stock, based on the number of outstanding shares of common stock and outstanding stock-based awards of Ondas and the number of outstanding ordinary shares and share-based awards of Airobotics as of July 1, 2022, the last trading day for Ondas common stock prior to the announcement of the Merger.

Q:     When do Ondas and Airobotics expect to complete the Merger?

A:     Ondas and Airobotics are working to complete the Merger as soon as practicable. We currently expect the Merger to close in the fourth quarter of 2022. Neither Ondas nor Airobotics can predict, however, the actual date on which the Merger will be completed because it is subject to conditions beyond each company’s control, including obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals.

Q:     What are the conditions to completion of the Merger?

A:     In addition to the approval of the Merger Proposal by Airobotics shareholders as described above, completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction of a number of other conditions, including (1) the consents of, or declarations or filing with all expirations or early terminations of waiting periods required from Israeli, United States (federal, state, or local) or foreign government, any political subdivision thereof or any court or tribunal, or administrative, governmental, or regulatory body, agency, department, instrumentality, body, commission or other governmental agency or authority (“Government Entity”), and (2) no Governmental Entity having issued or entered any order or enacted any law after the date of the Merger Agreement having the effect of enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger.

         See “The Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Merger”.

Q:     What happens if I sell my Airobotics ordinary shares after the record date for the Airobotics special meeting but before the Airobotics special meeting?

A:     The record date for the Airobotics special meeting (the close of business in Israel on August 31, 2022) is earlier than the date of the Airobotics special meeting and earlier than the date that the Merger is expected to be completed. If you sell or otherwise transfer your ordinary shares after the record date but before the date of the Airobotics special meeting, you will retain your right to vote at the Airobotics special meeting. However, you will not have the right to receive the Merger Consideration to be received by the shareholders in the Merger. In order to receive the Merger Consideration, you must hold your shares through the effective date of the Merger, which is the date of the issuance of the certificate of merger by the Companies Registrar.

Q:     Why are Ondas and Airobotics proposing the Merger?

A:     For information regarding the reasons of the board of directors of Ondas (the “Ondas Board”) for approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, see the section titled “The Merger — Ondas’ Reasons for the Merger.” For information regarding the reasons of the board of directors of Airobotics (the “Airobotics Board”), for approving and recommending approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, see the section titled “The Merger — Airobotics Board of Directors’ Recommendation and Reasons for the Merger”.

Q:     When and where is the Airobotics special meeting?

A:     The Airobotics special meeting of Airobotics shareholders will be held at the offices of Airobotics on November 17, 2022 at 15:00, Israel Time, at 8 Modi’in Street, Petah Tikva, Israel 4969107, subject to any adjournments or postponements thereof.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger?

A:     For information regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger, see the section titled “The Merger — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger”.

Q:     What are the Israeli tax consequences of the merger?

A:     For information regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger, see the section titled “The Merger — Certain Israeli Tax Consequences of the Merger”.

Q:     If I am an Airobotics shareholder, how will I receive the consideration to which I will become entitled pursuant to the Merger Agreement?

A:     Prior to the Effective Time, Ondas will appoint the Exchange Agent and Israeli Sub-Agent selected by Ondas that is reasonably acceptable to Airobotics for purposes of obtaining documentation and paying the Merger Consideration.

         After receipt by the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Sub-Agent of a letter of transmittal, if applicable the surrender of a certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) evidencing the ordinary shares of Airobotics held by such shareholder, the declaration for tax withholding purposes and/or a valid tax certificate, and any other documents as may be required pursuant to the instructions of the Exchange Agent and Israeli Sub-Agent, Ondas will cause the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Sub-Agent to issue the amount of shares of Ondas common stock that such Airobotics shareholder has the right to receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Q:     What happens if the Merger is not completed?

A:     If the Merger is not completed for any reason, Airobotics shareholders will not receive any consideration for their Airobotics securities, and Airobotics will not be acquired by Ondas. If the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, Airobotics may be required to pay Ondas a termination fee as described under the section titled “The Merger Agreement — Termination Fee”.

Q:     Are there any risks that I should consider in connection with the Merger?

A:     Yes. You should read and carefully consider the risk factors set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors”. You also should read and carefully consider the risk factors of Ondas and Airobotics contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

Q:     Do I have dissenters’ rights in connection with the transaction?

A:     No. The ICL does not provide for any statutory dissenters’ rights for a Merger pursuant to Sections 314-327 of the ICL.

Q:     What will happen to my Airobotics stock-based awards?

A:     At the Effective Time, each outstanding option, warrant or other right to purchase Airobotics ordinary stock (each, a “Airobotics Stock Option,” and collectively, the “Airobotics Stock Options”) issued pursuant to any plan, other agreement, or arrangement, whether vested or unvested, shall be converted as of the Effective Time into an option, warrant or right, as applicable, to purchase shares of Ondas common stock. Subject to the terms of the relevant Airobotics Stock Option, each Airobotics Stock Option shall be deemed to constitute an option or warrant, as applicable, to acquire, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Airobotics Stock Option, a number of shares of Ondas common stock equal to the number of shares of Ondas common stock that the holder of such Airobotics Stock Option would have been entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger had such holder exercised such option or warrant into full Airobotics ordinary stock immediately prior to the Effective Time at a price per share of Ondas common stock equal to (i) the former per share exercise price for Airobotics ordinary shares otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Airobotics Stock Option, divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

         In addition to the foregoing, form of payment and timing of payments to holders of Airobotics Stock Options will be subject to the provisions of certain tax rulings, as applicable. See “The Merger Agreement — Conversion of Shares; Exchange Procedures and — Withholding” below.

Q:     Whom should I contact if I have any other questions?

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following risks, the risks associated with Ondas’ business found in Ondas’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the SEC on August 9, 2022, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and other information contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the matters addressed under the caption “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risk Factor Summary

The Merger, Combined Company, Ondas and Airobotics are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus. Some of these principal risks include the following:

Risks Related to the Merger

•        Uncertainty about the Merger may adversely affect each company’s relationships with its customers, suppliers, and employees.

•        The regulatory approvals required in connection with the Merger may not be obtained or may contain materially burdensome conditions.

•        The ratio for the exchange of Airobotics ordinary shares for Ondas common stock is fixed.

•        Ondas, Airobotics and the combined company may be subject to litigation in connection with the Merger.

•        If it is determined the Merger does not qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. holders of Airobotics ordinary shares will generally recognize capital gain or loss as a result of the Merger.

Risks Related to the Combined Company

•        Ondas may not realize the benefits anticipated from the Merger, which could adversely affect Ondas’ stock price.

•        The Merger may result in significant charges or other liabilities that could adversely affect the financial results of the combined company.

•        Ondas stockholders will experience dilution as a consequence of the issuance of the common stock in connection with the Merger.

•        Ondas may experience difficulties integrating Airobotics’ business.

•        Airobotics’ failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect its ability to present accurately its financial statements and could materially and adversely affect Airobotics and the combined company.

•        If Ondas is unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting following completion of the Merger, Ondas may fail to prevent or detect material misstatements in its financial statements.

•        Airobotics may have liabilities that are not known, probable or estimable at this time.

•        The combined company’s goodwill or other intangible assets may become impaired, which could result in material non-cash charges to its results of operations.

•        The combined company may be unable to manage its growth effectively.

•        The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

Risks Related to Ondas

•        These risks are described in Part I, Item 1A of Ondas’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the SEC on August 9, 2022 and in other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

subject to the general price fluctuations in the market for publicly traded equity securities and have experienced significant volatility, and you should obtain recent market quotations for Ondas common stock or Airobotics ordinary shares. In addition, there will be a period of time between the date when shareholders of Airobotics vote on the Merger and the date when the Merger is completed and Airobotics shareholders receive shares of Ondas common stock. Neither Ondas nor Airobotics can predict or give any assurances as to the relative market prices of their shares before, at or after Airobotics’ shareholder vote on the Merger.

Ondas, Airobotics and the combined company may be subject to litigation in connection with the Merger.

Lawsuits may be filed against Ondas and Airobotics, their respective subsidiaries, and/or their respective directors or executive officers in connection with the Merger and/or the related transactions. In addition, lawsuits may be filed against the combined company following the Merger. If any such lawsuit is filed, it could result in a reduction in the stock price of Ondas, Airobotics or the combined company following the Merger, substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect the business, financial condition or results of operations of Ondas, Airobotics and the combined company whether or not a settlement or other resolution is achieved.

The rights of holders of Airobotics ordinary shares will change as a result of the Merger.

Upon completion of the Merger, shareholders of Airobotics will become Ondas stockholders and their rights as stockholders of Ondas will be governed by Ondas’ Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Ondas Articles”), Ondas’ Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Ondas Bylaws”) and Nevada law. The terms of the Ondas Articles and Ondas Bylaws and Nevada law are, in some respects, different than the terms of Airobotics’ articles of association and Israeli corporate law, which currently govern the rights of Airobotics shareholders. For more information, see the section titled “Comparison of Shareholder Rights”.

If it is determined the Merger does not qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. holders of Airobotics ordinary shares will generally recognize capital gain or loss as a result of the Merger.

As further described below in “The Merger — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” of this prospectus, the Merger is intended to qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. However, there is no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will not take a contrary position regarding the tax treatment of the Merger or that any such contrary position would not be sustained, nor is the receipt of any tax opinion a condition to the closing of the Merger. If it is determined the Merger does not qualify as a tax-free “reorganization”, the Merger would be a taxable transaction to Airobotics shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In that case, a U.S. holder (as defined below in the section entitled “The Merger — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) would generally recognize capital gain or loss measured by reference to the fair market value of Ondas common stock received in exchange for such U.S. holder’s Airobotics ordinary shares. For more information about the tax consequences related to the Merger, see the section entitled “The Merger — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences of the Merger” of this prospectus.

Even if the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code, a U.S. holder may still recognize gain as a result of the Merger if Airobotics is or was classified as a “passive foreign investment company” for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder held Airobotics ordinary shares.

Even if the Merger qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, if Airobotics was a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”) for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder (as defined below in the section entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”) owned Airobotics ordinary shares, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including recognition of gain, could apply to such U.S. holder as a result of the Merger, unless certain exceptions apply. U.S. holders of Airobotics ordinary shares should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible classification of Airobotics as a PFIC and the resulting U.S. federal income tax considerations. See the section entitled “The Merger — U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — U.S. Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders — Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules”.

Risks Related to the Combined Company

Ondas may not realize the benefits anticipated from the Merger, which could adversely affect Ondas’ stock price.

The anticipated benefits from the Merger are, necessarily, based on projections and assumptions about the combined business of Ondas and Airobotics, which may not materialize as expected or which may prove to be inaccurate. Ondas’ ability to achieve the anticipated benefits will depend on its ability to successfully and efficiently integrate the business and operations of Airobotics with those of Ondas and achieve the expected synergies. Ondas may encounter significant challenges with successfully integrating and recognizing the anticipated benefits of the Merger, including the following:

•        potential disruption of, or reduced growth in, Ondas’ historical core businesses, due to diversion of management attention and uncertainty with Ondas’ current customer and supplier relationships;

•        challenges arising from the expansion into those Airobotics jurisdictions where Ondas does not currently operate or have significant operations;

•        coordinating and integrating research and development teams across technologies and products to enhance product development;

•        consolidating and integrating corporate, information technology, finance and administrative infrastructures, and integrating and harmonizing business systems;

•        coordinating sales and marketing efforts to effectively position Ondas’ capabilities and the direction of product development;

•        difficulties in achieving anticipated cost savings, synergies, business opportunities and growth prospects from combining Airobotics’ business with Ondas’ business;

•        limitations prior to the completion of the Merger on the ability of management of Ondas and of Airobotics to conduct planning regarding the integration of the two companies;

•        the increased scale and complexity of Ondas’ operations resulting from the Merger;

•        retaining key employees, suppliers and other partners of Ondas and Airobotics;

•        obligations that Ondas will have to counterparties of Airobotics that arise as a result of the change in control of Airobotics;

•        difficulties in anticipating and responding to actions that may be taken by competitors in response to the Merger; and

•        Ondas’ assumption of and exposure to unknown or contingent liabilities of Airobotics. In addition, Ondas’ anticipated benefits of the Merger contemplate significant cost-saving synergies over time. Consequently, even if Ondas is able to successfully integrate the operations of Airobotics with its own, Ondas may not realize the full benefits of the Merger if it is unable to identify and implement the anticipated cost savings or if the actions taken to implement such cost-savings have unintended consequences on Ondas’ other business operations.

If Ondas does not successfully manage these issues and the other challenges inherent in integrating an acquired business then it may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger, Ondas could incur unanticipated expenses and charges and its operating results and the value of its common stock could be materially and adversely affected.

The Merger may result in significant charges or other liabilities that could adversely affect the financial results of the combined company.

Ondas has incurred, and expects to continue to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with the Merger. The substantial majority of the non-recurring expenses will consist of transaction and regulatory costs related to the Merger. Ondas will also incur transaction fees and costs related to formulating and implementing integration plans, including system consolidation costs and employment-related costs. Ondas continues to assess the magnitude of these costs, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred from the Merger and integration. Although Ondas anticipates

that the elimination of duplicative costs and the realization of other efficiencies and synergies related to the integration should allow Ondas to offset integration-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term, or at all. As a result, the financial results of Ondas following the Merger may be adversely affected by cash expenses and non-cash accounting charges incurred in connection with the Merger and the integration of the business and operations of Airobotics.

Furthermore, as a result of the Merger, Ondas will record a significant amount of goodwill and other intangible assets on its consolidated financial statements, which could be subject to impairment based upon future adverse changes in Ondas’ business or prospects including its inability to recognize the benefits anticipated by the Merger.

In addition, upon the completion of the Merger, Ondas will be liable for some or all of Airobotics’ liabilities that Ondas may have failed to or been unable to identify in the course of performing due diligence. If Ondas is not able to completely assess the scope of these liabilities or if these liabilities are neither probable nor estimable at this time, Ondas’ future financial results could be adversely affected by unanticipated reserves or charges, unexpected litigation or regulatory exposure, unfavorable accounting charges, unexpected increases in taxes due, a loss of anticipated tax benefits or other adverse effects on its business, operating results or financial condition. The price of Ondas’ common stock following the Merger could decline to the extent the combined company’s financial results are materially affected by any of these events.

Ondas’ actual financial position and results of operations following the Merger may differ materially from the unaudited pro forma financial information included in this prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma financial information contained in this prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be an indication of Ondas’ financial condition or results of operations following the Merger. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been derived from the historical audited and unaudited consolidated financial information of Ondas and Airobotics, respectively, and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding Ondas after giving effect to the Merger. The information upon which these adjustments and assumptions have been made is preliminary, and these types of adjustments and assumptions are difficult to make with accuracy. For example, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect all costs that are expected to be incurred by Ondas in connection with the Merger. As a result, Ondas’ actual financial condition and results of operations following the completion of the Merger may not be consistent with, or evident from, the unaudited pro forma financial information.

In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the unaudited pro forma financial information may prove to be inaccurate, and other factors may affect Ondas’ financial condition or results of operations following the consummation of the Merger. Any potential decline in Ondas’ financial condition or results of operations may cause significant variations in the market price of its common stock following the Merger. For additional information, see the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” contained in this prospectus.

Ondas stockholders will experience dilution as a consequence of the issuance of the common stock in connection with the Merger.

Ondas stockholders will experience dilution upon the issuance of additional shares of common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Such dilution will, among other things, limit the ability of the current Ondas stockholders to influence management of Ondas, including through the election of directors following the Merger.

Ondas may experience difficulties integrating Airobotics’ business.

Achieving the anticipated benefits of the Merger will depend in significant part upon whether Ondas and Airobotics integrate their businesses in an efficient and effective manner. Ondas has been able to conduct only limited planning regarding the integration of the companies following the Merger and has not yet determined the exact nature of how the businesses and operations of the companies will be combined after the Merger. The actual integration may result in additional and unforeseen expenses, and the anticipated benefits of the integration plan may not be realized. The companies may not be able to accomplish the integration process smoothly, successfully or on a timely basis. The necessity of coordinating geographically separated organizations, systems of controls, and facilities and addressing possible differences in business backgrounds, corporate cultures and management philosophies may increase the difficulties of integration. The companies operate numerous systems and controls, including those involving management information, purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, billing, employee benefits, payroll and regulatory compliance. The integration

of operations following the Merger will require the dedication of significant management and external resources, which may temporarily distract management’s attention from the day-to-day business of the combined company and be costly. Employee uncertainty and lack of focus during the integration process may also disrupt the business of the combined company. Any inability of management to successfully and timely integrate the operations of the two companies could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations of the combined company.

The combined company’s inability to integrate other recently acquired businesses or to successfully complete future acquisitions could limit its future growth or otherwise be disruptive to its ongoing business.

Ondas has pursued several acquisitions in recent years. Ondas completed its acquisition of American Robotics in August 2021. Ondas is still in the process of integrating the recently acquired businesses and assets, including American Robotics and Ardenna, and, following the Merger, will also need to successfully integrate the overall businesses of Ondas and Airobotics in the combined company. Additionally, Ondas may pursue future acquisitions that it believes will be accretive or complementary to its business. The anticipated benefits and synergies from recently completed acquisitions or future acquisitions may not materialize to the extent projected or at all.

Airobotics’ failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect its ability to present accurately its financial statements and could materially and adversely affect Airobotics and the combined company after the consummation of the Merger, including the combined company’s business, reputation, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Airobotics’ outside auditor identified material weaknesses in Airobotics’ internal control over financial reporting in connection with the preparation of the financial statements and audit as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, which relates to a deficiency in the design and operation of its financial accounting and reporting controls. Specifically, the material weakness resulted from a lack of segregation of duties within the financial accounting and reporting processes. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

While the combined company intends to implement measures to remediate the material weakness, there is no guarantee that it can be remediated in a timely fashion or at all. The combined company’s failure to correct this material weakness could result in inaccurate financial statements and could also impair its ability to comply with the applicable financial reporting requirements on a timely basis. These compliance issues could cause investors to lose confidence in Airobotics’ reported financial information and may result in volatility in and a decline in the market price of the combined company’s securities.

Upon completion of the Merger, Airobotics will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Ondas. Prior to the filing of the registration statement, Airobotics was not subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and Section 404 thereof will require that the combined company include a report from management on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting in its annual report on Form 10-K. It may take the combined company time to develop the requisite internal control framework. The combined company’s management may conclude that its internal control over financial reporting is not effective, or the level at which the combined company’s controls are documented, designed, or reviewed is not adequate, and may result in the combined company’s independent registered public accounting firm issuing a report that is qualified. In addition, the reporting obligations may place a significant strain on the combined company’s management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. The combined company may be unable to complete its evaluation testing and any required remediation in a timely manner.

If Ondas is unable to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting following completion of the Merger, Ondas may fail to prevent or detect material misstatements in its financial statements, in which case investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of its financial reports and the market price of its securities may decline.

Ondas and Airobotics currently maintain separate internal control over financial reporting with different financial reporting processes and different process control software. Ondas plans to integrate its internal control over financial reporting with that of Airobotics. Ondas may encounter difficulties and unanticipated issues in combining Ondas and Airobotics respective accounting systems due to the complexity of the financial reporting processes. Ondas may also identify errors or misstatements that could require audit adjustments. If Ondas is unable to implement and maintain

effective internal control over financial reporting following completion of the Merger, Ondas may fail to prevent or detect material misstatements in its financial statements, in which case investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of its financial reports and the market price of its securities may decline.

Airobotics may have liabilities that are not known, probable or estimable at this time.

After the Merger, Airobotics will remain subject to certain past, current, and future liabilities. There could be unasserted claims or assessments against or affecting Airobotics, including the failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, there may be liabilities of Airobotics that are neither probable nor estimable at this time that may become probable or estimable in the future, including indemnification requests received from customers of Airobotics relating to claims of infringement or misappropriation of third party intellectual property or other proprietary rights, tax liabilities and liabilities in connection with other past, current and future legal claims and litigation. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s financial results. Ondas may learn additional information about Airobotics that adversely affects the combined company, such as unknown, unasserted, or contingent liabilities and issues relating to compliance with applicable laws or infringement or misappropriation of third party intellectual property or other proprietary rights.

Airobotics is subject to numerous legal and regulatory regimes and the combined business could be harmed by changes to, or the interpretation or the application of, the laws and regulations of each of the jurisdictions in which it operates.

In addition to the United States, Airobotics operates in Israel, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. The international scope of Airobotics’ business will require the combined company to comply with a wide range of national and local laws and regulations, which may in certain cases diverge from or even conflict with each other.

With the geographic expansion of Ondas’ business and that of its subsidiaries, including also Airobotics after the consummation of the Merger, into new markets, Ondas will become subject to additional and changing legal, regulatory, tax, licensing, and compliance requirements and industry standards with respect to the combined company’s business.

In countries where Ondas and Airobotics operate, legislators and regulatory authorities may introduce new interpretations of existing laws and regulations or introduce new legislation or regulations concerning the business of Ondas and/or Airobotics. Changes in government regulation of or successful challenges to the business model used by Ondas or Airobotics in certain markets may require the combined company to change its existing business models and operations. Any additional regulatory scrutiny or changes in legal requirements may impose significant compliance costs and make it uneconomical for the combined company to continue to operate in all of the current markets or to expand in accordance with the combined company’s strategy, particularly if regulations or their interpretations vary greatly or conflict between different operating countries. This may negatively impact the combined company’s revenue and profitability by preventing the combined company’s business from reaching sufficient scale in particular markets or having to change its business model or incur additional costs, which would adversely impact the combined company after the completion of the Merger. Our inability, or perceived inability, to comply with existing or new compliance obligations, could lead to regulatory scrutiny, which could result in administrative or enforcement action, such as fines, penalties, and/or enforceable undertakings and adversely affect the combined company after the completion of the Merger.

The combined company’s goodwill or other intangible assets may become impaired, which could result in material non-cash charges to its results of operations.

The combined company will have goodwill and other intangible assets resulting from the Merger. At least annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment in the carrying value as defined by GAAP, the combined company will evaluate this goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment based on the fair value of each reporting unit. Estimated fair values could change if there are changes in the combined company’s capital structure, cost of debt, interest rates, capital expenditure levels, operating cash flows, or market capitalization. Impairments of goodwill or other intangible assets could require material non-cash charges to the combined company’s results of operations.

The combined company may be unable to manage its growth effectively.

The combined company’s growth strategy will place significant demands on its financial, operational and management resources. In order to continue its growth, the combined company may need to add administrative and other personnel, and will need to make additional investments in operations and systems. There can be no assurance that the combined company will be able to find and train qualified personnel, or do so on a timely basis, or expand its operations and systems to the extent, and in the time, required.

The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

The success of the combined company will depend on the continued contributions of key employees and officers. The loss of the services of key employees and officers, whether such loss is through resignation or other causes, or the inability to attract additional qualified personnel, could have a material adverse effect on the combined company’s financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

Following the completion of the Merger, our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will be increased.

Airobotics conducts a significant portion of its operations outside of the United States, which also operate in their respective local currencies, the most significant of which are currently the Israeli New Shekel, the Singapore Dollar and the Emirati Dirham. Therefore, following the completion of the Merger, the combined company’s international operations will account for a more significant portion of overall operations than they do presently for Ondas and its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will increase. Because our financial statements will continue to be presented in U.S. dollars subsequent to the completion of the transaction, the local currencies will be translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates for inclusion in our consolidated financial statements, thereby increasing the foreign exchange translation risk.

Risks Related to Ondas

You should read and consider the risk factors specific to Ondas’ business that will also affect the combined company after the Merger. These risks are described in Part I, Item 1A of Ondas’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 22, 2022, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the SEC on August 9, 2022 and in other documents that are incorporated by reference into this prospectus. See the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information” for the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

Risks Related to Airobotics

Airobotics has incurred significant operating losses since its inception and cannot assure you that it will ever achieve or sustain profitability.

Since its inception, Airobotics has incurred significant losses. As of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Airobotics had an accumulated deficit of approximately $141 million and $122 million, respectively. To date, it has financed its operations primarily through convertible loans from shareholders, bank loans, grants from the Israel Innovation Authority, and the issuance of its ordinary shares on the stock exchange. Prior to entering into the Merger Agreement, Airobotics’ ability to continue its operations was dependent on its ability to raise funds from various sources and it applied for financing from existing shareholders and a foreign sectoral investment fund.

Even if Airobotics were to achieve profitability in the future, it may not be able to sustain or increase such profitability. Additionally, Airobotics’ costs may increase in future periods and it may expend substantial financial and other resources on, among things, sales and marketing, the hiring of additional employees, contractors and other service providers, and general administration, which may include a significant increase in legal and accounting expenses related to continued compliance and various regulations applicable to its business or arising from the growth and maturity of its business.

Airobotics is dependent on a small number of customers, and the loss of such customers or a decrease in business conducted with such customers could materially harm its business, financial condition or results of operations.

Airobotics’ customers have historically consisted of urban supervisory and police authorities, municipalities and private entities from different industries, such as gas, mining, oil, ports, the defense industry and large technology companies. A small number of customers consisting of urban supervisory and police authorities and companies in the defense and technology industries have accounted for a substantial amount of Airobotics’ revenue for the last two completed fiscal years. During the year ended December 31, 2021, one customer accounted for approximately 86% of Airobotics’ revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2020, two customers accounted for approximately 78% of Airobotics’ revenue. The loss of these customers or a decrease in the business conducted with such customers could have a material adverse impact on Airobotics’ business, financial condition or results of operations.

If the commercial UAS markets do not experience significant growth, if Airobotics cannot expand its customer base or if its products and services do not achieve broad acceptance, then Airobotics may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth.

Airobotics cannot accurately predict the future growth rates or sizes of the markets for its products and services. Demand for its products and services may not increase, or may decrease, either generally or in specific markets, for particular types of products and services or during particular time periods. Airobotics believes the market for commercial UAS is nascent and the expansion of the market for its products and services in particular, depends on a number of factors, including the following:

•        customer satisfaction with these types of systems as solutions;

•        the cost, performance and reliability of products offered by Airobotics and its competitors;

•        customer perceptions regarding the effectiveness and value of these types of systems;

•        obtaining timely regulatory approvals for new customer deployments; and

•        marketing efforts and publicity regarding these types of systems and services.

Even if commercial UAS gain wide market acceptance, Airobotics’ products and services may not adequately address market requirements and may not continue to gain market acceptance. If these types of systems generally, or Airobotics’ products and services specifically, do not gain wide market acceptance, then it may not be able to achieve its anticipated level of growth and its revenue and results of operations would decline.

Negative customer perception regarding the commercial UAS industry or Airobotics’ automated data solutions could have a material adverse effect on the demand for Airobotics’ products and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of Airobotics.

Airobotics believes the commercial UAS industry is highly dependent upon customer perception regarding the safety, efficacy, and quality of the commercial UAS system deployed. Customer perception of these products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention, and other publicity. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other research findings or publicity will be favorable to the UAS market. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less favorable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity could have a material adverse effect on the demand for Airobotics’ products and the business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of Airobotics. The dependence upon customer perceptions means that adverse scientific research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity, whether or not accurate or with merit, could have a material adverse effect on Airobotics, the demand for its products, and its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Project performance delays or difficulties, including those caused by third parties, or certain contractual obligations may result in additional costs to Airobotics, reductions in revenues or the payment of liquidated damages.

Many projects involve challenging engineering, construction or installation phases that may occur over extended time periods. Airobotics may encounter difficulties as a result of delays or changes in designs, engineering information

or materials provided by a customer or a third party, delays or difficulties in equipment and material delivery, schedule changes, delays from a customer’s failure to timely obtain permits or meet other regulatory requirements including the securing of necessary Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) certifications or FAA approvals, weather-related delays and other factors, many of which are beyond its control, that impact its ability to complete the project in accordance with the original delivery schedule. In addition, Airobotics contracts with third-party subcontractors to assist it with the completion of contracts. Any delay or failure by suppliers or by subcontractors in the completion of their portion of the project may be beyond Airobotics’ control and may result in delays in the overall progress of the project or may cause it to incur additional costs, or both. Delays and additional costs may be substantial, and, in some cases, Airobotics may be required to compensate the customer for such delays. Delays may also disrupt the final completion of its contracts as well as the corresponding recognition of revenues and expenses therefrom. In certain circumstances, Airobotics guarantees project completion by a scheduled acceptance date or achievement of certain acceptance and performance testing levels; failure to meet any of its guarantees, schedules or performance requirements could also result in additional costs or penalties to Airobotics, including obligations to pay liquidated damages, and such amounts could exceed expected project profit. In extreme cases, the above-mentioned factors could cause project cancellations, and Airobotics may be unable to replace such projects with similar projects or at all. Such delays or cancellations may impact Airobotics’ reputation, brand or relationships with customers, adversely affecting its ability to secure new contracts.

Airobotics’ contractors may fail to satisfy their obligations to it or other parties, or it may be unable to maintain these relationships, either of which may have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Airobotics depends on third party contractors to complete manufacturing, certain research and development and deployment functions. There is a risk that it may have disputes with contractors arising from, among other things, the quality and timeliness of work performed by the contractor, customer concerns about the contractor or Airobotics failure to extend existing task orders or issue new task orders. In addition, if any of its contractors fail to deliver on a timely basis the agreed-upon supplies and/or perform the agreed-upon services, then Airobotics ability to fulfil its obligations may be jeopardized. In addition, the absence of qualified contractors with whom Airobotics has a satisfactory relationship could adversely affect the quality of its service and its ability to perform under some of its contracts. Any of these factors may have a material adverse effect on Airobotics’ business, financial condition or results of operations.

Material delays or defaults in customer payments could leave Airobotics unable to cover expenditures related to such customer’s projects, including the payment of its subcontractors.

Because of the nature of most of Airobotics’ contracts, it commits resources to projects prior to receiving payments from its customers in amounts sufficient to cover expenditures as they are incurred. In certain cases, these expenditures include paying its contractors and purchasing parts. If a customer defaults in making its payments on a project or projects to which Airobotics has devoted significant resources, it could have a material adverse effect on Airobotics’ business, financial condition or results of operations.

Certain of Airobotics’ officers, employees, contractors and other service providers may work on projects that are inherently dangerous, and a failure to maintain a safe worksite could result in significant losses.

Certain of Airobotics’ project sites can place its employees, contractors and other service providers and others, including third parties, in difficult or dangerous environments, and may involve difficult and hard to reach terrain, high elevation, or locations near large or complex equipment, moving vehicles, high voltage or other safety hazards or dangerous processes. Safety is a primary focus of Airobotics’ business and maintaining a good reputation for safety is critical to its business. Many of its customers require that Airobotics meet certain safety criteria to be eligible to bid on contracts. Airobotics maintains programs with the primary purpose of implementing effective health, safety and environmental procedures throughout the company. Maintaining such programs involves variable costs which may increase as governmental, regulatory and industry safety standards evolve, and any increase in such costs may materially affect Airobotics’ business, financial condition or results of operations. Further, if Airobotics fails to implement appropriate safety procedures or if its procedures fail, its officers, employees, contractors and other service providers, including third parties, may suffer injuries. Failure to comply with such procedures, client contracts or

applicable regulations, or the occurrence of such injuries, could subject Airobotics to material losses and liability and may adversely impact its ability to obtain projects in the future or to hire and retain talented employees, contractors and other service providers, therefore materially adversely affecting its business, financial condition or results of operations.

Airobotics’ marketing efforts depend significantly on its ability to receive positive references from its existing customers.

Airobotics’ marketing efforts depend significantly on its ability to call on its current and past customers to provide positive references to new, potential customers. A material portion of its current pipeline activity is concentrated in the urban supervisory and police authorities, municipalities and private entities from different industries, such as gas, mining, oil, ports, the defense industry and large technology companies. Given Airobotics limited number of customers, the loss or dissatisfaction of any customer could substantially harm its brand and reputation, inhibit the market acceptance of its products and services, and impair its ability to attract new customers and maintain existing customers. Further, as Airobotics expands into new vertical and geographic end markets, references from existing customers could be similarly important. Any of these consequences could have a material adverse effect on Airobotics’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

Airobotics is exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations because a significant proportion of Airobotics’ expenses are denominated in foreign currencies.

Airobotics’ operating currency is the U.S. dollar and Airobotics is therefore exposed to risks arising from changes in the dollar exchange rate. Most of Airobotics’ revenues are in dollars, while it has significant expenses in Shekels (mainly due to manpower). In light of the above, Airobotics’ business results may be affected by fluctuations in the U.S. dollar exchange rate.

Airobotics operates in a competitive market.

Since the field of automatic collection, analysis and accessibility of information through automatic UAV’s (the “Field of Operations”), is a field with numerous players and which is constantly evolving, market development and competition in the various industries relevant to Airobotics’ operations may increase in the future and adversely affect Airobotics’ business, for example, as a result of impaired prices for its products and services.

Airobotics depends on its ability to attract and retain skilled and professional employees.

As of the date of this report, Airobotics’ operations focus on the further development and upgrade of the systems it develops and the services it provides, and distribution and marketing, therefore it is important to retain skilled and professional personnel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in Airobotics’ opinion, if necessary, it does not anticipate a material difficulty in replacing employees with training and training new employees within a reasonable period of time as required.

Airobotics depends on its ability to develop new products and technologies.

Airobotics is exposed to risks involved in the development of new products and/or new technologies, the failure of which may harm its operations and development.

For example, the current generation of Airobotics’ products and technology platforms have only been developed in the last several years and will continue to evolve. Deploying and operating Airobotics’ technology is complex and, until recently, had been done primarily by a small number of customers. As the size, complexity and scope of Airobotics’ deployments grow it anticipates being able to test product performance at a greater scale and in a variety of new geographic settings and environmental conditions. As the number, size and complexity of Airobotics’ deployments grow and it deploys its technology platforms for new applications in new critical infrastructure industries, it may encounter unforeseen operational, technical and other challenges, some of which could cause significant delays, trigger contractual penalties, result in unanticipated expenses, and/or damage to its reputation, each of which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

If Airobotics fails to respond to evolving technological changes, Airobotics’ products and services could become obsolete or less competitive.

Airobotics operates in highly competitive industries characterized by new and rapidly evolving technologies, standards, regulations, customer requirements, as well as frequent product introductions and revisions. Accordingly, its operating results depend upon its ability to develop and introduce new products and services and its ability to reduce production costs of its existing products. The process of developing new technologies and products is complex, and if Airobotics is unable to develop enhancements to, and new features for, its existing products and services or acceptable new products and services that keep pace with technological developments or industry standards, its products may become obsolete, less marketable and less competitive and its business, financial condition or results of operations could be significantly harmed.

Airobotics depends on its ability to develop new products and to enhance and sustain the quality of existing products.

Airobotics’ growth and future success will depend, in part, on its ability to continue to design and manufacture new competitive products and to enhance and sustain the quality and marketability of its existing products. As such, it has made, and expects to continue to make, substantial investments in technology development. In the future, it may not have the necessary capital, or access to capital on acceptable terms, to fund necessary levels of research and development. Even with adequate capital resources, Airobotics may nonetheless experience unforeseen problems in the development or performance of its technologies or products. In addition, Airobotics may not meet its product development schedules and, even if it does, it may not develop new products fast enough to provide sufficient differentiation from its competitors’ products, which may be more successful.

Airobotics faces uncertainty and adverse changes in the economy.

Adverse changes in the economy could negatively impact Airobotics’ business. Future economic distress may result in a decrease in demand for Airobotics’ products, which could have a material adverse impact on its operating results and financial condition. Uncertainty and adverse changes in the economy could also increase costs associated with developing and publishing products, increase the cost and decrease the availability of sources of financing, and increase Airobotics’ exposure to material losses from bad debts, any of which could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition and operating results of Airobotics.

War, terrorism, and other acts of violence may affect the markets in which Airobotics operates, its clients and its product and service delivery.

Airobotics business may be adversely affected by regional or global instability, disruption or destruction, regardless of cause, including war, terrorism, riot, civil insurrection or social unrest. Such events may cause clients to delay their decisions on spending for the products and services provided by Airobotics and give rise to sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles. These events pose risks which could materially adversely affect Airobotics’ financial results.

Airobotics’ insurance policies may not cover all risks adequately or Airobotics may not be able to secure adequate insurance policies at reasonable prices when renewing coverage.

Airobotics has several insurance policies required to insure its operations, when Airobotics renews the period and terms of the insurance from time to time. Notwithstanding, it is possible that not all risks are covered and/or covered in full under the various policies and therefore, insurance proceeds, to the extent received, may not cover the full damage and losses incurred (third parties, including Airobotics’ customers and passers-by in the public space and Airobotics’ products and services).

In addition, Airobotics may be exposed to warranty claims for the products and services provided by it as well as additional claims (such as employee claims), which may affect its business, its reputation and the retention of its existing customers and engagement with new customers.

Airobotics operations may cause damage to its customers, which may not be fully covered by Airobotics’ existing insurance coverage, or could harm its reputation.

Airobotics’ operation may cause damage to its customers, such as bodily harm and property damage, including damage and loss of information contained in the various systems. Airobotics’ engagements with its customers may include indemnity and liability clauses by Airobotics, inter alia, for monetary damages and bodily injuries, as well as a commitment to purchase insurance.

Airobotics has several insurance policies required to insure its operations, which correspond to the insurance coverage required for its operations, including liability insurance for damages caused as a result of UAVs.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Airobotics may be exposed to an event that is not covered by the existing insurance coverage or to an event that is covered by the insurance coverage, but damage caused will exceed the limit of liability in the existing policy.

It should also be noted that damage to the customer may adversely affect Airobotics’ reputation in general and its operations and results with the specific customer in particular.

Airobotics does not control certain aspects of the manufacturing process.

Some of the components used to manufacture the Airobotics System are purchased from external suppliers with whom Airobotics engages, when with respect to some of the components, adjustments and changes have been made in accordance with Airobotics’ needs (as opposed to off-the-shelf products). If Airobotics is required to replace any of the aforesaid suppliers with another supplier, this may generate additional one-time costs for it, which according to Airobotics’ assessments are not material and may also extend the production rate of the Airobotics System +for a certain period.

Airobotics’ ability to protect its intellectual property and proprietary technology is uncertain.

Airobotics relies primarily on patent, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements, to protect its proprietary technologies and intellectual property. As of this filing, Airobotics held a total of one issued patent in the U.S., four issued international patents, five international pending patent applications, and one international patent application that has been filed but for which the examination process has not yet commenced. Airobotics’ patents expire in 2036, subject to any patent extensions that may be available for such patents. Airobotics’ intellectual property incorporates internally developed software and hardware design incorporating machine and computer vision and was developed with artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques. This intellectual property is critical to the development of end-to-end systems which reliably enable the automated operation of drones in real-world environments.

Airobotics has applied for patent protection relating to certain existing and proposed products and processes. If Airobotics fails to timely file a patent application in any jurisdiction, it may be precluded from doing so at a later date. Furthermore, Airobotics cannot assure you that any of its patent applications will be approved in a timely manner or at all. The rights granted to Airobotics under its patents, and the rights it is seeking to have granted in its pending patent applications, may not be meaningful or provide Airobotics with any commercial advantage. In addition, those rights could be opposed, contested or circumvented by its competitors, or be declared invalid or unenforceable in judicial or administrative proceedings. The failure of Airobotics’ patents to adequately protect its technology might make it easier or cheaper for its competitors to offer the same or similar products or technologies. Even if Airobotics is successful in receiving patent protection for certain products and processes, its competitors may be able to design around its patents or develop products that provide outcomes which are comparable or superior to Airobotics without infringing on its intellectual property rights. Due to differences between foreign and U.S. patent laws, Airobotics patented intellectual property rights may not receive the same degree of protection in foreign countries as they would in the U.S. Even if patents are granted outside the U.S., effective enforcement in those countries may not be available without significant cost and time expense or at all.

Airobotics relies on its trademarks and trade names to distinguish its products from the products of its competitors. Third parties may challenge Airobotics use of the trademarks. In the event that Airobotics’ trademarks are successfully challenged, it could be forced to rebrand its products, which could result in loss of brand recognition, and could require us to devote additional resources to marketing new brands. Further, Airobotics cannot assure you that its competitors will not infringe upon its trademarks, or that it will have adequate resources to enforce its trademarks.

standards, contractual obligations or other legal obligations, or any actual or suspected security incident, whether or not resulting in unauthorized access to, or acquisition, release or transfer of personal information or other data, may result in governmental enforcement actions and prosecutions, private litigation, fines and penalties or adverse publicity and could cause its customers to lose trust in Airobotics, which could have an adverse effect on its reputation and business. Any inability to adequately address privacy and security concerns, even if unfounded, or comply with applicable laws, regulations, policies, industry standards, contractual obligations or other legal obligations could result in additional cost and liability to Airobotics, damage our reputation, inhibit sales, and adversely affect its business and operating results.

Cyberattacks through security vulnerabilities could lead to disruption of business.

In recent years, cyber and information security risks have become more significant and common risk factors, especially in light of digital transformation processes taking place in various industries, and the reliance of various organizations on digital information management systems and work processes. Airobotics’ Field of Operations which includes the collection, analysis and transfer of information, combines the use of computer and network systems that are exposed to various cyber risks. Cyberattacks can cause damage and loss of information found in various systems, make it difficult to carry out ongoing activities at customer sites, and other activities of Airobotics, such as research and development and production, and adversely affect its reputation.

Further, if Airobotics fails to adequately maintain its infrastructure, it may experience outages and data loss. Excessive outages may affect its ability to timely and efficiently deliver products to customers or develop new products and solutions. Such disruptions and data loss may adversely impact Airobotics ability to fulfill orders, patent its intellectual property or protect its source code, and interrupt other processes. Delayed sales or lost customers resulting from these disruptions could adversely affect Airobotics’ financial results, stock price and reputation.

Unauthorized use or disclosure of, or access to, any personal information maintained by Airobotics or on its behalf, whether through breach of its systems, breach of the systems of its suppliers or vendors by an unauthorized party, or through employee or contractor error, theft or misuse, or otherwise, could harm its business. If any such unauthorized use or disclosure of, or access to, such personal information was to occur, Airobotics’ operations could be seriously disrupted, and it could be subject to demands, claims and litigation by private parties, and investigations, related actions, and penalties by regulatory authorities. In addition, it could incur significant costs in notifying affected persons and entities and otherwise complying with the multitude of foreign, federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the unauthorized access to, or use or disclosure of, personal information. Finally, any perceived or actual unauthorized access to, or use or disclosure of, such information could harm Airobotics’ reputation, substantially impair its ability to attract and retain customers and have an adverse impact on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by Airobotics’ management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the recognition of income and expenses. Airobotics’ management considers these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used by Airobotics’ management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The significant accounting policies and estimates which Airobotics believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating Airobotics’ reported financial results are described below. See Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies of Airobotics’ audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of Airobotics’ unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 included elsewhere in this prospectus for more detailed information regarding Airobotics’ critical accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when the control over the goods or services is transferred to the customer. The transaction price is the amount of the consideration that is expected to be received based on the contract terms, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (such as taxes).

Revenue from the sale of goods:

Revenue from sale of goods is recognized in profit or loss at the point in time when the control of the goods is transferred to the customer, generally upon delivery of the goods to the customer.

Revenue from rendering of services:

Revenue from rendering of services is recognized over time, during the period the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by Airobotics’ performance. Airobotics charges its customers based on payment terms agreed upon in specific agreements.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are measured at cost, including directly attributable costs, less accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses and any related investment grants and excluding day-to-day servicing expenses. Cost includes spare parts and auxiliary equipment that are used in connection with equipment.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets at annual rates, as follows:

____________

(*)      Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term (including the extension option held by the Group and intended to be exercised) and the useful life of the improvement.

The useful life, depreciation method and residual value of an asset are reviewed at least each year-end and any changes are accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate. Depreciation of an asset ceases at the earlier of the date that the asset is classified as held for sale and the date that the asset is derecognized.

Intangible Assets

Separately acquired intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost including directly attributable costs. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Expenditures relating to internally generated intangible assets, excluding capitalized development costs, are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.

Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful life and reviewed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset are reviewed at least at each year end.

The intangible assets of Airobotics consist of software.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful life of the assets at annual rates as follows:

a.      Research and Development Expenditures

Research expenditures are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.

Costs incurred in an internal development project are recognized as an intangible asset when the following conditions are met:

•        Airobotics can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;

•        Airobotics’ intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it

•        The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

•        How the intangible asset will generate future economic benefits;

•        The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the intangible asset; and-

•        The ability to measure reliably the expenditures attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

When an internally developed intangible asset cannot be recognized, the development costs are recognized as an expense in profit or loss as incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period.

Airobotics focuses on improving existing technology and related software, and is in various stages of project examination and development. As of reporting date, there is no certainty as to the existence of technical, financial and other resources to complete these processes, and accordingly, Airobotics did not recognize the asset in its financial statements. In light of the above, development expenses up to reporting date did not meet such conditions, and were therefore charged to the statement of comprehensive income when incurred.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

Airobotics evaluates the need to record an impairment of non-financial assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount is not recoverable. If the carrying amount of non-financial assets exceeds their recoverable amount, the assets are reduced to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of sale and value in use. In measuring value in use, the expected future cash flows are discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the asset. The recoverable amount of an asset that does not generate independent cash flows is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss.

An impairment loss of an asset, other than goodwill, is reversed only if there have been changes in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. Reversal of an impairment loss, as above, shall not be increased above the lower of the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years and its recoverable amount. The reversal of impairment loss of an asset presented at cost is recognized in profit or loss.

Inventory

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories comprises costs of purchase and costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Airobotics periodically evaluates the condition and age of inventories and makes provisions for slow moving inventories accordingly.

Cost of inventories is determined as follows:

•        Raw materials — at cost of purchase using the “first-in, first-out” method.

•        Work in progress and finished goods — on the basis of average costs including materials, labor and other direct and indirect manufacturing costs based on normal capacity.

Change of Use-From Property and Equipment to Inventory:

Considering the expansion of Airobotics’ operations in the United Arab Emirates, Airobotics intends to sell some of the UAV equipment to customers as part of its business model (a system that includes the docking station, 2 Drones and Mast), in addition to its service package. Therefore, as of December 31, 2021, Airobotics has decided to transfer the UAV equipment, that were classified as property, plant, and equipment, to Inventory.

THE MERGER

The description of the Merger Agreement in this section and elsewhere in this prospectus is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A and is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. This summary does not purport to be complete and may not contain all of the information about the Merger that is important to you. You are encouraged to read the Merger Agreement carefully and in its entirety. This section is not intended to provide you with any factual information about Ondas or Airobotics. Such information can be found elsewhere in this prospectus and in the public filings Ondas makes with the SEC that are incorporated by reference into this document, as described in the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Background of the Merger

As part of its ongoing evaluation of Ondas’ business, the Ondas Board and Ondas’ management continuously review Ondas’ operations, financial performance, strategy and growth initiatives and industry conditions. In this context, the Ondas Board considers strategic opportunities that are or might be available to it to enhance shareholder value, including investments in new growth opportunities, technologies and adjacent businesses as well as potential acquisitions, taking into account industry and transaction trends as well as economic and other conditions generally.

The Airobotics Board and Airobotics’ management periodically review and assess Airobotics’ operations, financial performance and competitive position in the context of Airobotics’ long-term strategic goals and plans. These reviews include consideration of potential opportunities to enhance shareholder value as well as industry dynamics and consolidation among participants in the industry.

In April 2021 and September 2021, B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) visited Airobotics’ management and shareholders and visited Airobotics’ facilities in Israel.

Following the kick off call, B. Riley held bi-weekly calls with this working group to discuss transaction documentation and status.

On July 5-6, 2022, representatives from Akerman and Herzog met virtually to review the draft amendment to the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement.

On July 7, 2022, Akerman provided Herzog a revised amendment to the Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement and Ondas and Airobotics executed the amendment.

On July 20, 2022, Akerman provided Herzog an initial draft of the Merger Agreement, which provided for, among other things, (i) a termination fee of $1,000,000 payable by Airobotics in the event of (A) a termination for failure to close by the Termination Date, failure to obtain the Airobotics’ shareholder approval, or in the event of a breach of the Merger Agreement by Airobotics and either at the time of any such termination or prior to the Airobotics shareholder meeting, a Third Party Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced or otherwise communicated to senior management or the Airobotics Board or within one year of such termination, Airobotics shall have entered into an agreement with respect to, or consummated a Third Party Acquisition Proposal or (B) termination for a breach by Airobotics of the no-shop restrictions in the Merger Agreement, or in connection with a superior proposal, (ii) a fee reimbursement provision which would require Airobotics to pay Ondas’ expenses incurred in connection with the transaction in the event of a termination for failure to obtain the Airobotics shareholder approval (the amount of which would be offset against any termination fee payable), and (iii) an exchange ratio of 0.16806, as had been previously agreed upon.

On July 25, 2022, Herzog provided Akerman and Pearl Cohen a list of matters relating to the draft Merger Agreement. Also, on July 25, 2022, representatives from Akerman, Pearl Cohen and Herzog met virtually to review such list. Among the issues flagged for discussion was the amount of the termination fee, which Airobotics countered should be between 2% and 3% of the transaction value and should only be payable for a material breach of the no-shop restrictions in the Merger Agreement or in the event of certain terminations within nine months of which Airobotics consummates or enters into an agreement for a Third Party Acquisition Proposal. Additionally, Airobotics proposed a termination fee payable by Ondas in the event it receives an acquisition proposal from a third party prior to the closing of the Merger.

On July 28, 2022, Herzog provided Akeman and Pearl Cohen a revised draft of the Merger Agreement, which provided for, among other things, a termination fee payable by Airobotics to Ondas in the amount between 2% and 3.5% of the transaction value only in the event of a termination for a superior proposal or in the case of a material breach by Airobotics of the no-shop restrictions, in either event only if within nine months of such termination, Airobotics enters into an agreement with respect to, or consummates, a Third Party Acquisition. In addition, the revised draft deleted the obligation by Airobotics to reimburse Ondas’ transaction expenses for termination for failure to obtain the Airobotics shareholder approval.

On July 30, 2022, Akerman provided Herzog a revised draft of the Merger Agreement, which provided for, among other things, a termination fee of $800,000 in the event of termination of the Merger Agreement for reasons set forth in the Akerman initial draft from July 20, 2022 and a fee reimbursement provision which would require Airobotics to pay Ondas’ reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the transaction in the event of a termination for failure to obtain the Airobotics shareholder approval (the amount of which would be offset against any termination fee payable).

On July 31, 2022, Herzog provided Akerman and Pearl Cohen a revised draft of the Merger Agreement. The amount of the termination fee was agreed at $800,000, but Airobotics proposed that the triggers for payment of the termination fee be limited to terminations for (i) failure to close by the Termination Date if at such time Ondas had a termination right for a breach by Airobotics of the no-shop restrictions in the merger agreement, (ii) failure to obtain the Airobotics shareholder approval or (iii) a material breach by Airobotics of the merger agreement and, in any such case of (i), (ii) or (iii), at the time of such termination or prior to the Airobotics shareholder meeting a Third Party Acquisition Proposal has been made to Airobotics’ senior management or board of directors or is announced to its shareholders and within 9 months after termination of the merger agreement, Airobotics shall have entered into or consummated such Third Party Acquisition Proposal previously made or publicly made known or (iv) a breach of Airobotics’ no-shop restrictions in the merger agreement or in connection with a superior proposal. In addition, the fee reimbursement provision was as set forth in the Akerman draft of July 30, 2022 (described above), but provided for a cap of such reimbursable expenses.

On November 2, 2022, Ondas filed an amendment to the Registration Statement on Form S-4.

Airobotics Board of Directors’ Recommendation and Reasons for the Merger

At its meeting on August 4, 2022, following discussion and careful consideration, the Airobotics Board unanimously:

•        determined that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are advisable and in the best interests of Airobotics and Airobotics’ shareholders and that, considering the financial position of the merging companies, no reasonable concern exists that the surviving corporation will be unable to fulfill the obligations of Airobotics to its creditors as a result of the Merger;

•        approved the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and

•        determined to recommend that Airobotics’ shareholders vote to approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The Airobotics Board recommends that the Airobotics shareholders vote to approve the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The members of the audit committee of the Airobotics Board (the “Airobotics Committee”) and the Airobotics Board considered many factors in making its determination that the Merger Agreement, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are advisable and in the best interests of Airobotics and its shareholders. In arriving at its determination, the Airobotics Board consulted with members of the Airobotics management team and assessed various factors relevant to its decision, including the following:

•        the belief that the Merger Consideration is fair, reasonable, in accordance with market conditions, and expresses a fair price for the shareholders of Airobotics; taking into account, among other factors, their familiarity with Airobotics’ business, Airobotics’ financial state given the existence of a going concern note in Airobotics’ financial statements, the market, the feasibility and chances of completing the Merger and the timetables for its completion, and compared to forecasts on Airobotics’ future financial yields

•        the belief that Merger Consideration reflects to Airobotics’ shareholders a premium of approximately 71% (based on the closing price of each of Airobotics ordinary shares and Ondas common stock on the relevant stock exchange, and the exchange rate at the end of the trading day to the date of approval of the Merger Agreement by the Airobotics Board); and a premium of about 48% - based on the aforementioned lock-in price on average of 30 trading days preceding the date of approval by the Airobotics Board;

•        the fact that the Merger Consideration includes the exchange of all Airobotics Stock Options and rights to purchase shares of Airobotics, even those not yet vested or matured, while maintaining the conditions applicable to the Airobotics Stock Options and rights to shares of Airobotics, which will be exercisable in exchange for a coordinated exercise price;

•        the expectation that the combination of Airobotics’ activity with Ondas activity, through American Robotics, by combining their technologies, will allow Airobotics to expand the range of its products and capabilities that will be offered to Airobotics’ customers, as well as to expand the variety and scope of its customers in many markets, including the United States, and accelerate the transition from the development phase to sales and growth;

•        the belief that failure to complete the Merger may endanger the continued existence and business activity of Airobotics; and

•        the expectation that the Merger can be completed, within a reasonable time, while allowing the continued existence and business activity of Airobotics during the interim period, taking into account, among other reasons, that the parties conducted negotiations for the provision of a loan by Ondas to Airobotics in the interim period subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Airobotics Committee and Airobotics Board also identified and considered a number of other matters, some of which are countervailing factors and risks to Airobotics and its shareholders, relating to the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the following:

•        the possibility that the Merger might not be consummated and the fact that, if the Merger is not consummated, (i) Airobotics’ directors, senior management and other employees will have expended extensive time and effort and will have experienced significant distractions from their work during the pendency of the Merger, (ii) Airobotics will have incurred significant transaction costs, (iii) Airobotics’ continuing business relationships with business partners and employees may be adversely affected, (iv) the trading price of Airobotics ordinary shares could be adversely affected and (v) the market’s perceptions of Airobotics’ prospects could be adversely affected;

•        the restrictions on the conduct of Airobotics’ business required by the Merger Agreement (subject to specified exceptions), which may have an adverse effect on Airobotics’ ability to respond to changing market and business conditions in a timely manner or at all and to execute its strategic plans;

•        subject to certain exceptions, the Merger Agreement precludes Airobotics from soliciting alternative acquisition proposals and requires Airobotics to pay to Ondas a termination fee of $800,000, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, including a termination of the Merger Agreement by Airobotics to accept a superior proposal. These factors might have the effect of discouraging other parties from making competing proposals that might be more advantageous to Airobotics shareholders than the Merger; and

•        the risk that the parties may incur significant costs and delays related to the Merger, including resulting from seeking governmental consents and regulatory approvals necessary for completion of the Merger.

The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered by the Airobotics Board is intended to be illustrative and not exhaustive, but rather includes the material reasons and factors considered by the Airobotics Board in reaching its determination and recommendation in relation to the Merger and the Merger Agreement and the transactions proposed thereby. In view of the numerous reasons and factors considered and the complexity of these matters, the Airobotics Board did not find it practical to, and did not, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specified factors considered in reaching its determinations or the reasons for such determinations. Individual directors may have given differing weights to different factors or may have had different reasons for their ultimate determination. In addition, the Airobotics Board did not reach any specific conclusion with respect to any of the factors or reasons considered. Instead, the Airobotics Board conducted an overall analysis of the factors and reasons described above and unanimously determined in its business judgment that, in the aggregate, the potential benefits of the Merger to the shareholders of Airobotics outweighed the risks or potential negative consequences.

Ondas’ Reasons for the Merger

The Ondas Board unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and determined that the terms of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, are advisable and fair to and in the best interests of Ondas and its shareholders. In reaching its determination, the Ondas Board consulted with Ondas’ management, as well as with Ondas’ financial, legal and strategic advisors, and considered a variety of factors weighing favorably towards the transactions, including the factors described below:

•        the belief that the Merger advances Ondas’ business plan and positions the combined company to scale on behalf of franchise customers and accelerate the growth of the commercial drone market;

•        the belief that the combined company will bring together leading engineering and aviation talent, regulatory leadership, and world-class technology platforms, providing a unique opportunity to offer a broader scope of solutions and services to customers in accelerated timelines;

•        the belief that the Merger should result in a number of important synergies, primarily from achieving greater operating efficiencies, capturing inherent economies of scale and leveraging corporate resources;

•        the belief that the combined company will be a global provider of automated drone solutions to a broader range of markets and applications and strengthen the combined company’s ability to deliver complete end-to-end solutions for customers on a global scale;

•        the belief that Airobotics and American Robotics will bring together best-in-class elements of the commercial DIB ecosystem offering the opportunity for accelerated product offerings to a broader set of end markets and applications;

•        the expectation that critical system elements including payloads, detect-and-avoid technology, reliability and safety systems, and data analytics can be optimized in the companies’ current and next-generation drone platforms;

•        the belief that the Merger will provide a U.S.-based marketing and field services platform to drive adoption of the Airobotics System in commercial, security and defense markets;

•        the expectation that the combined company will have a greater opportunity to bring American Robotics’ Scout System into international markets, offering the combined company the ability to better serve large, multi-national customers across the world with a wider variety of solutions and services;

•        the expectation that the integration of American Robotics’ safety systems with the Airobotics System will offer the potential for extended FAA approvals for Beyond Visual Line of Sight flight operations;

•        the belief that if Airobotics receives Type Certification with the FAA for the Airobotics System, the combined company will receive significant time and cost advantages when it pursues Type Certification of future UAS platforms, including the Scout System;

•        the expectation that Ondas Networks’ software-defined wireless connectivity platform will see a broader opportunity for product development in UAS applications, including command and control UAS navigation;

•        the belief that a presence in Israel will offer the opportunity to expand existing relationships with Israeli aviation and defense vendors and the broader international MC-IoT vendor ecosystem;

•        the belief that the Merger will strengthen Ondas’ position in an industry where we expect to continue to see consolidation; and

•        the expectation that the combined company will benefit from synergies, including cost-related efficiencies resulting from integrated engineering and product development programs, the benefit of shared sales and marketing resources and the elimination of certain duplicative costs related to legal, board and other public company costs.

The Ondas Board also identified and considered certain potentially negative factors in its deliberations to be balanced against the positive factors, including:

•        the possibility that the Merger may not be completed as a result of the failure to satisfy one or more conditions to the Merger described under “The Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Merger;”

•        the effect of the public announcement of the Merger or the failure to consummate the Merger on Ondas’ revenues, operating results, stock price, customers, suppliers, management, employees, and other constituencies;

•        the risk that the operations of the two companies might not be successfully integrated or integrated in a timely manner, and the possibility of not achieving the anticipated synergies and other benefits sought to be obtained in the Merger;

•        the substantial costs to be incurred in connection with the Merger, including costs of integrating the businesses and expenses arising from the Merger, which may exceed management’s estimates;

•        the risk that Airobotics has material liabilities which were not identified during Ondas’ due diligence; and

•        various other risks associated with the Merger and the combined company set forth under the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” section.

After consideration of these factors, the Ondas Board determined that, overall, the potential benefits of the Merger Agreement and transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement outweighed the potential risks.

This discussion of the information and factors considered by the Ondas Board includes the material positive and negative factors considered by the Ondas Board, but it is not intended to be exhaustive and may not include all the factors considered by the Ondas Board. The Ondas Board did not quantify or assign any relative or specific weights to the various factors that it considered in reaching its determination to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Rather, the Ondas Board viewed its position as being based on the totality of the information presented to and factors considered by it. In addition, individual members of the Ondas Board may have given differing weights to different factors. It should be noted that this explanation of the reasoning of the Ondas Board and certain information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed in the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Regulatory Approvals

The parties are required to execute and file, or join in the execution and filing of, any application, notification or other document that may be necessary in order to obtain the authorization, approval or consent of any governmental entity, whether federal, state, local or foreign, that may be reasonably required, or that Ondas may reasonably request, in connection with the Merger.

In connection with the Merger, Ondas will use reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Ondas common stock to be issued as Merger Consideration and the shares of Ondas common stock to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Airobotics Stock Options to be approved for listing on the NASDAQ and the parties also intend to deliver a notification to Nasdaq regarding the listing of additional Ondas common stock that will be registered pursuant to this prospectus.

If Ondas does not receive the ISA Exemption (as defined below), Ondas will use its best efforts to receive a permit from TASE for a registration statement with respect to the dual listing of Ondas common stock, including all shares of Ondas common stock underlying shares of Ondas’ convertible securities, at the TASE or a permit from the ISA and the TASE to publish a prospectus which would also apply to the Merger Consideration. In October 2022, Ondas’ application for no-action was denied by the ISA. In light of the above and per the provisions of the Merger Agreement, Ondas submitted an application for the registration of its securities (including those to be issued to Airobotics’ security holders as the Merger Consideration) for trading in the TASE, by way of dual listing. The application was submitted to the ISA and the TASE and the application is currently under review thereby.

Neither Ondas nor Airobotics can provide assurance that any such regulatory approvals will not result in the delay or abandonment of the Merger.

Timing of the Merger

The Merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022. Neither Ondas nor Airobotics can predict, however, the actual date on which the Merger will be completed because it is subject to conditions beyond each company’s control, including obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals.

See “The Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Merger”.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger

This section describes United States federal income tax consequences of (i) the Merger to certain beneficial owners of Airobotics ordinary shares who exchange their Airobotics ordinary shares for shares of Ondas common stock pursuant to the Merger and (ii) the ownership and disposition of Ondas common stock received upon the consummation of the Merger.

This discussion is based on the provisions of the Code, the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and judicial and administrative rulings, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change or varying interpretation, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth herein.

This discussion assumes that Airobotics shareholders hold their Airobotics ordinary shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to an Airobotics shareholder in light of such holder’s particular circumstances, nor does it discuss the special considerations applicable to Airobotics shareholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as, for example, financial institutions or broker-dealers, mutual funds, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, dealers in securities or foreign currencies, traders in securities who elect the mark-to-market method of accounting, controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies, U.S. expatriates, holders who acquired their Airobotics ordinary shares through the exercise of options or otherwise as compensation, holders who hold their Airobotics ordinary shares as part of a hedge, straddle, constructive sale or conversion transaction, U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, and holders who own or have owned (directly, indirectly or constructively) 10% or more (by vote or value) of Airobotics’ ordinary shares. This discussion does not address any tax consequences arising under the Medicare contribution tax, nor does it address any aspect of foreign, state, local, alternative minimum, estate, gift or other tax law that may be applicable to a holder.

If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Airobotics ordinary shares, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and activities of the partnership. Holders that are partners of a partnership holding Airobotics ordinary shares should consult their own tax advisors.

All Airobotics shareholders should consult their own tax advisors to determine the particular tax consequences to them in light of their particular circumstances, including the applicability and effect of the alternative minimum tax and any U.S. federal, U.S. state or local, non-U.S. or other tax laws and of potential changes in such laws.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of the Merger

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (a “Reorganization”). Unless otherwise noted, the remainder of this discussion assumes that the Merger will be so treated. Neither Ondas nor Airobotics has obtained or will obtain a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Merger. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary position regarding the tax consequences described in this discussion, or that any such contrary position would not be sustained, nor is the receipt of any tax opinion a condition to the closing of the Merger.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders

For purposes of this discussion, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of Airobotics ordinary shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•        an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•        a corporation (including any entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•        a trust if (a) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person; or

•        an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source.

The tax treatment of a U.S. holder will depend in part on whether or not Airobotics is or was classified as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Except as discussed below under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules”, this discussion assumes that Airobotics is not and has not been classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Tax Consequences of the Merger

The exchange of Airobotics ordinary shares for shares of Ondas common stock will be tax-free to U.S. holders. A U.S. holder’s aggregate tax basis in Ondas common stock received in the Merger will equal such U.S. holder’s aggregate adjusted tax basis in the Airobotics ordinary shares exchanged therefor. A U.S. holder’s holding period for Ondas common stock received in the Merger will include the U.S. holder’s holding period in respect of the Airobotics ordinary shares exchanged for such Ondas common stock.

If a U.S. holder of Airobotics ordinary shares acquired different blocks of Airobotics ordinary shares at different times or at different prices, such U.S. holder’s basis and holding period in its shares of Ondas common stock may be determined separately with reference to each block of Airobotics ordinary shares. Any such U.S. holder should consult its tax advisor regarding the tax bases and holding periods of the particular shares of Ondas common stock received in the Merger.

If it is determined that the Merger does not qualify as a Reorganization, the Merger would be a taxable transaction to Airobotics shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In that case, a U.S. holder would generally recognize capital gain or loss measured by the difference between (a) the fair market value (in U.S. dollars) of Ondas common stock received in exchange for such U.S. holder’s Airobotics ordinary shares and (b) such U.S. holder’s basis in the Airobotics ordinary shares it holds. Such capital gain or loss would be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the exchange, such U.S. holder’s holding period in its Airobotics ordinary shares was greater than one year. A U.S. holder’s tax basis in shares of Ondas common stock received in the Merger would be the fair market value (in U.S. dollars) of those shares on the date such U.S. holder received them. The U.S. holder’s holding period for shares of Ondas common stock received in the Merger would begin on the day after the date such U.S. holder received such shares.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

The U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders could differ materially from those described above if, at any relevant time, Airobotics were a Passive Foreign Investment Company (“PFIC”) (determined under the rules described below). Airobotics believes that it was not a PFIC for its 2021 taxable year or any prior taxable year, and it does not expect to become a PFIC for any taxable year up to and including the taxable year in which the Merger is completed. However, Airobotics has not conducted and does not expect to conduct a formal study to determine its PFIC status. Moreover, because Airobotics’ PFIC status is based on its income, assets and activities for the entire taxable year, it is not possible to determine whether Airobotics will be characterized as a PFIC for its current taxable year until after the close of the applicable taxable year. As a result, there can be no assurance that Airobotics is not or will not become a PFIC prior to the closing of the Merger.

In general, Airobotics will be a PFIC with respect to a U.S. holder if for any taxable year in which such U.S. holder held Airobotics ordinary shares:

•        at least 75% of Airobotics’ gross income for the taxable year is passive income; or

•        at least 50% of the value, determined on the basis of a quarterly average, of the Airobotics’ assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income.

“Passive income” generally includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property, rents and royalties (other than certain rents and royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business), and certain other specified categories of income. If a foreign corporation owns at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, the foreign corporation is, for purposes of the PFIC tests, treated as owning its proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation, and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.

If Airobotics were to be considered a PFIC at any time that a U.S. holder holds Airobotics ordinary shares, any gain recognized by the U.S. holder on a sale or other disposition of the Airobotics ordinary shares generally would be allocated ratably over the U.S. holder’s holding period for its Airobotics ordinary shares. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and to any year before Airobotics became a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as appropriate, for that taxable year, and an interest charge would be imposed. If Airobotics is treated as a PFIC with respect to a U.S. holder for any taxable year, the U.S. holder will be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to any of Airobotics’ subsidiaries that are also PFICs. Unless a U.S. holder makes a “qualified electing fund” or “mark-to-market” election with respect to the Airobotics ordinary shares, a U.S. holder that holds Airobotics ordinary shares during a period in which Airobotics is a PFIC will be subject to the PFIC rules for that taxable year and all subsequent taxable years in which the U.S. holder holds Airobotics ordinary shares, even if Airobotics ceases to be a PFIC. Classification as a PFIC may have other adverse tax consequences. If Airobotics is considered a PFIC, a U.S. holder will also be subject to annual information reporting requirements.

U.S. holders of Airobotics ordinary shares are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to the Merger and Airobotics ordinary shares, including the advisability of making a qualified electing fund or mark-to-market election.

Ownership of Ondas Common Stock Received in the Merger

Distributions on Ondas Common Stock

Distributions of cash or property with respect to shares of Ondas common stock generally will be treated as dividends to the extent of Ondas’ current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Dividends paid to a non-corporate U.S. holder that constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable at preferential rates applicable to long-term capital gains so long as the holder holds the Ondas common stock for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and meets other holding period requirements. Dividends paid with respect to Ondas common stock will generally be qualified dividend income, provided the holding period requirements in the previous sentence are satisfied. In addition, dividends paid to corporate U.S. holders may qualify for the dividends received deduction if the holder meets certain holding period and other requirements. Any portion of a distribution in excess of Ondas’ current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. holder’s basis in Ondas common stock and thereafter as capital gain.

Sale or Other Disposition of Ondas Common Stock

A U.S. holder that sells or otherwise disposes of Ondas common stock in a taxable transaction will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the amount that the U.S. holder realizes and the U.S. holder’s tax basis in those shares. Capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder is taxed at preferential rates when the holder has a holding period greater than one year. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

A U.S. holder may, under certain circumstances, be subject to information reporting and backup withholding with respect to certain amounts that it receives in the Merger, unless such holder properly establishes an exemption or provides its correct tax identification number and otherwise complies with the applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against a payee’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, so long as such payee furnishes the required information to the IRS in a timely manner.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders

A “non-U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of Airobotics ordinary shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an individual, corporation, estate or trust and that is not a U.S. holder.

Tax Consequences of the Merger

The Merger is not expected to result in any material U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. holders.

Ownership of Ondas Common Stock Received in the Merger

Distributions on Ondas Common Stock

Distributions of cash or property with respect to shares of Ondas common stock generally will be treated as dividends to the extent of Ondas’ current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Any portion of a distribution in excess of Ondas’ current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a non-U.S. holder’s basis in its Ondas common stock, and thereafter as capital gain (which will be treated in the manner described below under “ — Sale or Other Disposition of Common Stock”).

Except as described below, dividends on Ondas’ common stock that are paid to or for the account of a non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30%, or at a lower rate if the non-U.S. holder is eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate and the non-U.S. holder provides the documentation (generally, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E) required to claim benefits under such tax treaty to the applicable withholding agent. Even if Ondas’s current or accumulated earnings and profits are less than the amount of the distribution, the applicable withholding agent may elect to treat the entire distribution as a dividend for U.S. federal withholding tax purposes. Each non-U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding U.S. federal withholding tax on distributions, including such non-U.S. holder’s eligibility for a lower rate and the availability of a refund of any excess U.S. federal tax withheld.

If, however, a dividend is “effectively connected” with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by a non-U.S. holder, such dividend generally will not be subject to the 30% U.S. federal withholding tax if such non-U.S. holder provides the appropriate documentation (generally, a valid IRS Form W-8ECI or an acceptable substitute form) to the applicable withholding agent. Instead, such non-U.S. holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such dividend in substantially the same manner as United States citizens, resident aliens and domestic United States corporations (except as provided by an applicable tax treaty). In addition, a non-U.S. holder that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes may be subject to a “branch profits tax” at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate if provided by an applicable tax treaty) on its “effectively connected” income for the taxable year, subject to certain adjustments.

The foregoing discussion is subject to the discussion below under “ — FATCA Withholding” and “ — Information Reporting and Backup Withholding”.

Sale or Other Disposition of Common Stock

A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain recognized on the sale or other disposition of Ondas common stock unless:

•        such gain is “effectively connected” with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States by the non-U.S. holder (and the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment that the non-U.S. holder maintains in the United States, if that is required by an applicable income tax treaty as a condition for subjecting the non-U.S. holder to United States taxation on a net income basis);

•        the non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of such sale or other disposition and certain other conditions are met; or

•        Ondas is or has been a “United States real property holding corporation” (as described below) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time within the five-year period preceding the disposition or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period, whichever period is shorter, the non U.S. holder is not eligible for a treaty exemption, and either (i) Ondas common stock is not regularly traded on an established securities market during the calendar year in which the sale or disposition occurs or (ii) the non-U.S. holder owned or is deemed to have owned, at any time within the five-year period preceding the disposition or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period, whichever period is shorter, more than 5% of Ondas’s common stock.

If the gain from the taxable disposition of shares of Ondas common stock is “effectively connected” with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable tax treaty, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment that the non-U.S. holder maintains in the United States), the non-U.S. holder will be subject to tax on the net gain derived from the sale at rates applicable to United States citizens, resident aliens and domestic United States corporations. “Effectively connected” gains that a non-U.S. holder recognizes may also, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or at a lower rate if the non-U.S. holder is eligible for the benefits of an income tax treaty that provides for a lower rate. An individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet point immediately above will be subject to a flat 30% tax (unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise) on the gain derived from the sale or other disposition, which may be offset by United States source capital losses, even though the non-U.S. holder is not considered a resident of the United States.

Ondas will be a United States real property holding corporation at any time that the fair market value of Ondas’ “United States real property interests”, as defined in the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations, equals or exceeds 50% of the aggregate fair market value of Ondas’ worldwide real property interests and Ondas’ other assets used or held for use in a trade or business (all as determined for the U.S. federal income tax purposes). Ondas believes that it is not, and does not anticipate becoming in the foreseeable future, a United States real property holding corporation.

FATCA Withholding

Pursuant to sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, commonly known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), a 30% withholding tax (“FATCA withholding”) may be imposed on certain payments to a non-U.S. holder or to certain foreign financial institutions, investment funds and other non-U.S. persons receiving payments on behalf of a non-U.S. holder if such persons fail to comply with certain information reporting requirements. Payments of dividends received by a non-U.S. holder in respect of Ondas common stock could be affected by this withholding if the non-U.S. holder is subject to the FATCA information reporting requirements and fails to comply with them or if the non-U.S. holder holds Ondas common stock through a non-U.S. person (e.g., a foreign bank or broker) that fails to comply with these requirements (even if payments to the non-U.S. holder would not otherwise have been subject to FATCA withholding). An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable country may modify these requirements. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a non-U.S. holder that is not a foreign financial institution generally may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). All non-U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the relevant U.S. law and other official guidance on FATCA withholding.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Ondas and other payors are required to report payments of dividends on Ondas common stock on IRS Form 1042-S even if the payments are exempt from withholding. A non-U.S. holder otherwise is generally exempt from backup withholding and information reporting requirements with respect to dividend payments and the payments of the proceeds

from the sale of Ondas common stock effected at a United States office of a broker, provided that either (i) the payor or broker does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the non-U.S. holder is a United States person and the non-U.S. holder has furnished a valid IRS Form W-8 or other documentation upon which the payor or broker may rely to treat the payments as made to a non-United States person, or (ii) the non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption.

Payment of the proceeds from the sale of Ondas common stock effected at a non-U.S. office of a broker generally will not be subject to information reporting or backup withholding. However, a sale effected at a non-U.S. office of a broker could be subject to information reporting in the same manner as a sale within the United States (and in certain cases may be subject to backup withholding as well) if (i) the broker has certain connections to the United States, (ii) the proceeds or confirmation are sent to the United States or (iii) the sale has certain other specified connections with the United States.

Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and may be refunded or credited against a non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Certain Israeli Tax Consequences of the Merger

The following description is not intended to constitute a complete analysis of all Israeli tax consequences of Airobotics shareholders relating to the Merger. This summary does not discuss all the aspects of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular person in light of his or her personal circumstances. The discussion should not be construed as legal or professional tax advice and does not cover all possible tax considerations.

Airobotics intends to file requests for three tax rulings from the ITA with respect to (i) a deferral of capital gains tax with respect to Airobotics shareholders which hold less than 5% of Airobotics’ issued and outstanding shares regarding the stock consideration; and partial tax deferral, for the period of two and four years for each half of the stock consideration (respectively) for shareholders which hold upwards of 5% of Airobotics’ issued and outstanding shares; and (ii) the Israeli tax treatment applicable to holders of Airobotics stock options and ordinary shares issued to certain directors and employees under Section 102 of the ITO. There can be no assurance that such tax rulings will be granted before the closing of the Merger or at all or that, if obtained, such tax rulings will be granted under the conditions requested by Airobotics.

Discussions between Airobotics and the ITA regarding the scope of the rulings are ongoing. If and when the tax rulings referenced in the immediately preceding paragraph are finalized, Airobotics will file an immediate report on the ISA’s website, referred to as “MAGNA”, describing the tax rulings. There can be no assurance that such tax rulings will be granted before the completion of the Merger or at all, or that if obtained, such rulings will be granted under the conditions requested by Airobotics.

Israeli Capital Gains Tax

Generally, the exchange of Airobotics ordinary shares for the Merger Consideration would be treated as a sale and subject to Israeli tax both for Israeli and the non-Israeli resident shareholders of Airobotics. However, certain relief and/or exemptions may be available under Israeli law.

Israeli law generally imposes capital gains tax on the real capital gain from the sale of any capital assets by residents of Israel, as defined for Israeli tax purposes, and on the sale of capital assets located in Israel, including shares of Israeli companies by non-residents of Israel, unless a specific exemption is available or a tax treaty between Israel and the shareholder’s country of residence provides otherwise. Israeli law distinguishes between real capital gain and inflationary surplus. The real capital gain is the excess of the total capital gain over the inflationary surplus. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the method you should use to determine the inflationary surplus.

Generally, the capital gains tax rate applicable to the real capital gain is 25% for individuals. If such individual is holding or is entitled to purchase, directly or indirectly, alone or together with such person’s relative or another person who collaborates with such person on a permanent basis, at least 10% of (i) the voting rights of Airobotics , (ii) the right to receive Airobotics’ profits or its assets upon liquidation, (iii) the right to appoint a manager/director, or (iv) the right to instruct a Major Stockholder to do any of the foregoing on the date of sale or on any date falling within the 12-month period preceding that date of sale, such Major Stockholder would be subject to Israeli capital gains tax at the rate of 30%.

The actual capital gains tax rates which may apply to individual Airobotics shareholders on the sale of Airobotics ordinary shares (which may be effectively higher or lower than the rates mentioned above) are subject also to various factors including, inter alia, the date on which the shares were purchased, whether the shares are held through a nominee company or by the shareholder, the identity of the shareholder and certain tax elections which may have been made in the past by the shareholder.

In general, companies are subject to the corporate tax rate on real capital gains derived from the sale of shares at the rate of 23% in 2022. Please note that due to certain provisions of the ITO, the effective capital gains tax applicable to certain companies may be different than that specified above.

Individual and corporate shareholders dealing in securities in Israel are taxed at the tax rates applicable to “business income,” currently 23% for companies and a marginal tax rate of up to 47% for individuals, plus an additional tax of 3%, which is imposed on individuals whose annual taxable income exceeds a certain threshold (NIS 663,240 for 2022), see “ — Excess Tax” below.

The inflationary surplus is generally exempt from tax, provided that the shares being sold were acquired after December 31, 1993.

Pursuant to Israeli tax law, non-Israeli residents (individuals or corporations) will generally be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax, subject to certain provisions of the ITO, on the sale of Airobotics ordinary shares which were acquired after the company was registered for trade on the Israeli stock exchange. However, non-Israeli corporations will not be entitled to the foregoing exemption if Israeli residents: (i) have a controlling interest of more than 25% in such non-Israeli corporation or (ii) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly.

Other non-Israeli residents (individuals or corporations) may be exempt from Israeli capital gains tax under the provisions of an applicable tax treaty between Israel and the seller’s country of residence (subject to the receipt of a valid certificate from the ITA allowing for an exemption or a reduced tax rate). For example, under the Convention between the Government of the State of Israel and the Government of the United States of America with Respect to Taxes on Income (the “U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty”), Israeli capital gains tax would generally not apply when arising from the sale, exchange or disposition of ordinary shares by a person who qualifies as a resident of the United States within the meaning of the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty and who holds the shares as a capital asset and is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to such person by the treaty. However, such exemption will not apply if (i) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to real estate located in Israel; (ii) the capital gain arising from such sale, exchange or disposition is attributed to royalties; (iii) the capital gains from such sale, exchange or disposition may be attributed to a permanent establishment of the U.S. resident that is maintained in Israel, under certain terms, (iv) the U.S. resident holds, directly or indirectly, securities representing 10% or more of the voting rights during any part of the 12-month period preceding the effective time of the sale, exchange or disposition, subject to certain conditions; or (v) the U.S. resident, if an individual, was physically present in Israel for a period or periods aggregating to 183 days or more during the relevant taxable year.

In order to obtain an applicable withholding tax exemption for capital gains tax, certain documentation and/or declarations shall need to be provided to the ITA.

Other countries, including Canada, France, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom, are party to tax treaties with Israel that, subject to the provisions of those treaties, may exempt a non-Israeli resident shareholder from Israeli tax.

You are urged to consult with your own tax advisor regarding the applicability of these tax treaties to you and your receipt of Merger Consideration.

Excess Tax

Individuals who are subject to tax in Israel are also subject to an additional tax at a rate of 3% on annual income exceeding a certain threshold (NIS 663,240 for 2022), which amount is linked to the annual change in the Israeli consumer price index, including, but not limited to, dividends, interest and capital gain, subject to the provisions of an applicable tax treaty.

Israeli Tax Withholding

Whether or not a particular shareholder is actually subject to Israeli capital gains tax in connection with the Merger, absent receipt by Airobotics of an applicable tax ruling from the ITA prior to closing of the Merger, all Airobotics shareholders will be subject to Israeli withholding tax at the rate of 25% (for individuals) and 23% (for corporations) on the Merger Consideration (unless the shareholder requests and obtains an individual certificate of exemption or a reduced tax rate from the ITA, as described below), and since this is a cashless transaction the Merger Consideration shall not be paid to any payment recipient only after such payment recipient will satisfy its Israel Tax obligation to the sole satisfaction of the Ondas or the Israeli Sub-Agent or the payment to the Israeli Sub-Agent of the withholding tax amount by the payment recipient.

Airobotics is currently in discussions with the ITA on the scope of the final tax rulings and the exemptions that may be provided to Airobotics shareholders and, as of September 21, 2022, no definitive binding ruling has been obtained from the ITA. There can be no assurance that the tax rulings will be granted before the closing of the Merger or at all or that, if obtained, the tax rulings will be granted under the conditions requested by Airobotics.

Regardless of whether Airobotics obtains the requested tax rulings from the ITA, any holder of Airobotics ordinary shares who believes that it is entitled to such an exemption from withholding tax (or entitled to a reduced tax rate) may separately apply to the ITA to obtain a certificate of exemption from withholding or an individual tax ruling providing for no withholding or withholding at a reduced rate, and submit such certificate of exemption or ruling to the exchange agent prior to receiving the Merger Consideration and at least three business days prior to the date that is 365 days following the date of the closing of the Merger. If Ondas or the exchange agent do not receives a valid exemption certificate or tax ruling (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Israeli Sub Paying Agent) prior to delivering the Merger Consideration and at least three business days prior to the date that is 365 days following the date of the closing of the Merger, then the withholding (if any) of any amounts under the ITO from the consideration payable shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Israeli tax certificate or tax ruling.

The Israeli tax withholding consequences of the Merger to Airobotics shareholders and holders of Airobotics stock options subject to Section 102 of the ITO may vary depending upon the particular circumstances of each shareholder or holder of Airobotics stock options subject to Section 102 of the ITO, as applicable, and the final tax rulings issued by the ITA.

To the extent that tax is withheld on payments to U.S. taxpayers, it is possible that such withheld taxes may not be able to be credited against such taxpayers’ U.S. income tax liability.

Shareholders who received or acquired their Airobotics ordinary shares or were granted stock options or restricted stock awards under one or more of the Airobotics equity-based incentive plans, or otherwise as compensation for employment or services provided to Airobotics, may be subject to different tax rates.

As noted, Airobotics has also filed requests for a tax ruling from the ITA with respect to the withholding tax and other Israeli tax treatment applicable in respect of the Merger to holders of Airobotics stock options subject to Section 102 of the ITO (such ruling, as defined below under “The Merger Agreement — Tax Rulings”, is referred to as the “options tax ruling”).

The options tax ruling, if obtained as requested, would confirm, among other things that:

•        the treatment of the Airobotics stock options (whether vested or unvested) in the Merger would not constitute a violation of Section 102 of the ITO, and holders of such Airobotics stock options will not be subject to Israeli withholding tax at the closing of the Merger;

•        the statutory holding period under Section 102 of the ITO will continue uninterrupted from the original date of grant; and

•        the payment of any consideration to holders of vested Airobotics stock options with respect to such Airobotics stock options will not constitute a violation of Section 102 of the ITO; provided that the consideration paid to the holders of such Airobotics stock options is deposited with the trustee appointed by Airobotics , and approved by the ITA (the “102 Trustee”), for the duration of the statutory holding period under Section 102 of the ITO.

If no tax ruling is obtained for holders of Airobotics stock options subject to Section 102 of the ITO, such holders might be subject to Israeli withholding tax at such holders’ marginal tax rates under Israeli law for ordinary income, and may be also subject to withholding for national insurance contributions, depending on the specific circumstances of such holders and the terms and the timing of the grants of Airobotics stock options. In such event, no Ondas common stock will be issued to such holder of Airobotics stock options subject to Section 102 of the ITO, until such holder remits sufficient cash to cover the required amount to be withheld.

The Israeli tax rulings mentioned above may not be obtained or may contain such provisions, terms and conditions as the ITA may prescribe, which may be different from those detailed above. Certain categories of shareholders are expected to be excluded from the scope of any eventual ruling granted by the ITA and the final determination of the type of holders of Airobotics ordinary shares who will be included in such categories will be based on the outcome of the ongoing discussions with the ITA.

Accounting Treatment

Ondas prepares its financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Merger will be accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. As the acquirer for accounting purposes, Ondas has estimated the fair value of Airobotics’ assets acquired and liabilities assumed and conformed the accounting policies of Airobotics to its own accounting policies.

All unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained in this prospectus was prepared using the acquisition method of accounting. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined after the Merger is completed and after completion of an analysis to determine the estimated net fair value of Airobotics’ assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the final estimate of the fair values of the assets and liabilities will be determined with the assistance of a third-party valuation firm. Ondas’ preliminary estimates and assumptions are subject to materially change upon the finalization of internal studies and third-party valuations of assets, including investments, property and equipment, intangible assets including goodwill, and certain liabilities.

Nasdaq and TASE Listings; Delisting and Deregistration of Airobotics Ordinary Shares

Ondas has agreed to take all actions necessary in order to list the shares of Ondas common stock on the TASE immediately prior to the completion of the Merger. Ondas has also agreed, prior to the completion of the Merger, to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a dual listing permit from the ISA as well as the agreement of the TASE to list such shares of Ondas common stock and the shares of Ondas’ common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger on the TASE. Ondas will file a registration statement with the Israel Securities Authority (the “ISA”), and TASE for the listing of the Ondas common stock on the TASE. Ondas’ common stock will be listed on the TASE following the effectiveness of the Merger and the obtaining of a dual listing permit from the ISA. Prior to the completion of the Merger, Ondas has further agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Ondas common stock to be issued in connection with the Merger to be approved for listing on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance. The listing of the shares of Ondas’ common stock on Nasdaq, subject to official notice of issuance, is also a condition to completion of the Merger. In October 2022, Ondas’ application for no-action was denied by the ISA. In light of the above and per the provisions of the Merger Agreement, Ondas submitted an application for the registration of its securities (including those to be issued to Airobotics’ security holders as the Merger Consideration) for trading in the TASE, by way of dual listing. The application was submitted to the ISA and the TASE and the application is currently under review thereby.

If the Merger is completed, Airobotics ordinary shares will cease to be listed on the TASE in accordance with the applicable rules and policies of the TASE.

Ondas Stockholders

As of September 21, 2022, there were 112 stockholders of record of Ondas common stock.

Ondas’ Dividend Policy

Ondas has never declared or paid cash dividends on Ondas capital stock nor is it under any obligation to declare or pay such cash dividends. Ondas currently intends to retain any future earnings to fund its operations and the development and growth of Ondas’ business, and it does not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Ondas’ future ability to pay cash dividends on its capital stock may be limited by any future debt instruments or preferred securities.

Airobotics’ Dividend Policy

Airobotics has never declared or paid cash dividends on Airobotics capital stock nor is it under any obligation to declare or pay such cash dividends.

Airobotics Holders

As of September 21, 2022, there was one shareholder of record of Airobotics’ ordinary shares. The number of record holders is not representative of the number of beneficial holders of our Airobotics’ ordinary shares, as the shares of all shareholders for a publicly traded company such as Airobotics which is listed on the TASE are recorded in the name of Airobotics’ Israeli share registrar.

Restrictions on Sales of Shares of Ondas Common Stock Received in the Merger

All shares of Ondas common stock received by Airobotics shareholders in the Merger will be freely tradable for purposes of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. This prospectus does not cover resales of shares of Ondas common stock received by any person upon completion of the Merger, and no person is authorized to make any use of this prospectus in connection with any resale.

Interests of Certain Persons in the Merger

To the best knowledge of Airobotics, no director or other interested party in Airobotics, has a personal interest in the Merger, except as detailed herein:

1.      OurCrowd Group, an interested party in Airobotics, has a personal interest in the approval of the Merger, as the Merger Agreement includes agreements in connection with the repayment of a loan that it provided to Airobotics (the “OurCrowd Loan”);

2.      Mr. Ran Stern, the Chairman of Airobotics, has a personal interest in the approval of the Merger, as he is a partner in OurCrowd. It should be noted that in light of the aforementioned, entering into the Merger Agreement was brought for approval by Airobotics’ Audit Committee as a transaction in which the office holder has a personal interest, and was approved by the Airobotics Committee and the Airobotics Board; and

3.      All directors of Airobotics may be considered to have a personal interest in connection with the liability insurance of directors and officers of Airobotics within the framework of the Merger. Accordingly, all the directors were allowed to be present at the discussion of the Airobotics Board and participate in the vote in connection with the liability insurance of directors and officers in Airobotics.

THE MERGER AGREEMENT

This section describes the material terms of the Merger Agreement. The descriptions of the Merger Agreement in this section and elsewhere in this prospectus are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A and is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. This summary does not purport to be complete and may not contain all of the information about the Merger Agreement that is important to you. You are encouraged to carefully read the entire Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

Explanatory Note Regarding the Merger Agreement

The Merger Agreement and the summary of its material terms in this section have been included only to provide you with information about the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. Neither the Merger Agreement nor the summary of its material terms included in this section is intended to provide any factual information about Ondas or Airobotics. The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants of the parties customary for a merger of this nature. The representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement were made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement as of the specific dates therein; were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement; may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures exchanged between Airobotics and Ondas made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts; and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in Ondas’ or Airobotics’ public disclosures.

For the foregoing reasons, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement and any descriptions of those provisions should not be read alone or relied on by any persons as characterizations of the actual state of facts about Ondas or Airobotics at the time they were made or otherwise. Instead, such provisions or descriptions should be read only in conjunction with the other information provided elsewhere in this prospectus or in the notice of meeting to be issued to Airobotics shareholders by Airobotics or incorporated by reference herein or therein. See the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information”.

Structure of the Transaction

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, and in accordance with the ICL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Airobotics. As a result of the Merger, Airobotics (i) shall continue as the surviving corporation, while the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, (ii) shall be governed by the laws of the State of Israel; (iii) shall maintain a registered office in the State of Israel; and (iv) shall succeed to and assume all of the rights, properties, and obligations of Merger Sub and Airobotics in accordance with the ICL. The articles of association of Merger Sub shall be identical to the articles of association of Airobotics in effect at the Closing, except that they shall (a) exempt the Merger Sub from appointing an external auditor pursuant to Section 158 of the ICL, (b) cancel such existing definitions and articles derived from the fact Airobotics is publicly traded, and (c) include such other adjustments, if mandatory under Applicable Law.

Merger Consideration

At the Effective Time, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, each ordinary share of Airobotics, par value NIS 0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares owned by Airobotics or its subsidiaries (dormant or otherwise) or by Ondas or Merger Sub) shall be exchanged for and converted into the right to receive 0.16806 of a fully paid and nonassessable share of Ondas common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, without interest and subject to applicable tax withholdings.

All fractional shares of Ondas common stock that would otherwise be issued to a holder of Airobotics ordinary shares as part of the Merger Consideration will be rounded up to the nearest whole based on the total number of shares of Ondas common stock to be issued to the holder of Airobotics ordinary shares (after aggregating all fractional Ondas common stock issuable to such holder).

Ondas stockholders will continue to own their existing shares of common stock of Ondas, the form of which will not be changed by the Merger.

Treatment of Equity Awards

At the Effective Time, each outstanding option, warrant or other right to purchase Airobotics ordinary shares (each, an “Airobotics Stock Option,” and collectively, the “Airobotics Stock Options”) issued pursuant to any plan, other agreement, or arrangement, whether vested or unvested, including any Airobotics Stock Option with an exercise price per share equal to or greater than the Per Share Cash Equivalent Consideration, shall be assumed by Ondas and converted as of the Effective Time into an option, warrant or right, as applicable, to purchase shares of Ondas common stock. Subject to the terms of the relevant Airobotics Stock Option, each Airobotics Stock Option shall be deemed to constitute an option or warrant, as applicable, to acquire, on substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Airobotics Stock Option, a number of shares of Ondas common stock equal to the number of shares of Ondas common stock (rounded up to the nearest whole share) that the holder of such Airobotics Stock Option would have been entitled to receive pursuant to the Merger had such holder exercised such option or warrant into full Airobotics ordinary shares immediately prior to the Effective Time at a price per share of Ondas common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole cent) equal to (i) the former per share exercise price for Airobotics ordinary shares otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Airobotics Stock Option, divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio.

Closing and Effectiveness of the Merger

The closing of the Merger will take place at a time and on a date (the “Closing Date”) to be specified by Ondas, Merger Sub, and Airobotics, which shall be no later than the second business day after satisfaction (or waiver) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions), remotely by exchange of documents and signatures via Electronic Delivery, unless another time, date or place is agreed to in writing by Ondas, Merger Sub, and Airobotics.

Conversion of Shares; Exchange Procedures

The conversion of Airobotics ordinary shares (other than the excluded shares) into the right to receive the Merger Consideration will occur automatically at the Effective Time. Each outstanding ordinary share of Merger Sub shall be converted into one ordinary share of the surviving corporation and shall be registered in the name of Ondas in the shareholders register of the surviving corporation.

As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time (but not later than three business days thereafter), Ondas shall direct the Exchange Agent to deliver to each holder of record of a Certificate (or Certificates) or Book-Entry Shares as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case, whose Airobotics ordinary shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, and dividends or other distributions, if any (in each case other than holders of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares, which will be eligible to receive the Merger Consideration as described below): (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form reasonably acceptable to Airobotics (which shall specify that, in the case of Airobotics ordinary shares represented by Certificates, delivery shall be effected and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass only upon delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in the Merger Agreement) to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Ondas and Airobotics may reasonably specify); (ii) a declaration in which the beneficial owner of Airobotics ordinary shares provides certain information requested by the Exchange Agent and/or the Israeli Sub-Agent, as necessary for the Exchange Agent and/or Israeli Sub-Agent to determine whether any amounts need to be withheld from the Merger Consideration payable to such beneficial owner pursuant to the terms of the Ordinance (subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement), the Code, or any applicable provision of state, local, Israeli, U.S. or foreign Applicable Law; and (iii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates (or an effective affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for shares of Ondas common stock and dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, if any. Upon surrender of a Certificate (or an effective affidavit of loss in lieu thereof, together with such other security and/or documents as may be required pursuant to the Merger Agreement) or Book-Entry Shares for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal duly executed and any other forms or certificates required under Applicable Law, the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that number of whole shares of Ondas common stock (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form) and dividends or distributions, if any,

that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and the Certificate or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled; provided, however, that any Merger Consideration payable to holders of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares shall be paid, deposited or issued to the 102 Trustee on behalf of such holders of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares under the Assumed Company Plan, to be disbursed to the applicable holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling, if applicable), if obtained.

In the case of Certificates, upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of a letter of transmittal and surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a letter of transmittal, the declaration for tax withholding purposes and/or a valid tax certificate, in each case, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Ondas shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable, the number of shares of Ondas common stock in book-entry form representing in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive in respect of such Certificates and any dividends or other distributions payable, in each case, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, and the Certificates so surrendered will be canceled.

In the case of Book-Entry Shares, upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of a letter of transmittal, receipt of the declaration for tax withholding purposes and/or a valid tax certificate, in each case, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holder of such Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, and Ondas shall cause the Exchange Agent to pay and deliver in exchange therefor as promptly as reasonably practicable, the number of shares of Ondas common stock in book-entry form representing in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive in respect of such Book-Entry Shares and any dividends or other distributions payable, in each case, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, and the Book-Entry Shares so surrendered will be canceled.

Any consideration, whether in stock, cash or otherwise, that is paid or issued to holders of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares, shall be paid, deposited, or issued to the 102 Trustee under the Assumed Company Plan, on behalf of holders of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares, in accordance with Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling, if applicable), if obtained (the “Section 102 Share Consideration”). The Section 102 Share Consideration shall be held in trust by the 102 Trustee pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling, if applicable), if obtained, and shall be released by the 102 Trustee, together with any interest earned thereon by virtue of the investment of such amounts by the 102 Trustee, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling, if applicable), if obtained.

If payment of the Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions with respect to Ondas common stock) is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (i) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer (or the Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall be in proper form for transfer), and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration (and any dividends or other distributions with respect to Ondas common stock) to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share (as applicable) surrendered or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of Ondas that such tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid.

All shares of Ondas common stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Airobotics ordinary shares in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and any cash paid with respect to dividends and distributions shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Airobotics ordinary shares, subject, to the surviving corporation’s obligation to pay any dividends or make any other distributions with a record date prior to the date hereof that has been disclosed to Ondas in writing and that remain unpaid at the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the surviving corporation of the Airobotics ordinary shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than transfers by Ondas. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the surviving corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as described in this section “ — The Merger Agreement — Conversion of Shares; Exchange Procedures.”

Subject to Applicable Law, there shall be paid to the holder of the Ondas common stock issued in exchange for Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement, without interest, (a) at the time of delivery of such Ondas common stock by the Exchange Agent, the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date at or after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Ondas common stock, and (b) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date at or after the Effective Time but prior to such delivery of such Ondas common stock by the Exchange Agent, and a payment date subsequent to such delivery of such Ondas common stock by the Exchange Agent, payable with respect to such shares of Ondas common stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made at or after the Effective Time with respect to Ondas common stock with a record date at or after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Shares with respect to the shares of Ondas common stock represented thereby, until the holder of record of such Certificate or Book-Entry Shares shall surrender such Certificate (or provide an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in the Merger Agreement) or such Book-Entry Shares, as applicable.

Each of Ondas, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation, the 102 Trustee, the Exchange Agent and any other third-party agents (each, a “Payor”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from any amounts otherwise payable (by issuance of Ondas common stock or otherwise) pursuant to the Merger Agreement, including by way of a sale of a portion of the Ondas common stock in the stock exchange, any amounts that are required to be withheld or deducted with respect to such amounts under with respect to any such payments or issuances under the Ordinance, Code or any provision of state or any other Applicable Law relating to taxes as determined by Ondas. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity, (i) such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of the Merger Agreement as having been paid or issued, as applicable, to such Persons in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made and (ii) the Payor shall provide to the payment recipient in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made satisfactory evidence regarding any such withholding.

Subject to the provisions of the Tax Rulings, if obtained and as applicable, with respect to Israeli taxes, and in accordance with the Israeli Sub-Agent undertaking provided prior to Closing by the Israeli Sub-Agent to Ondas as required under Section 6.2.4.3 of the Income Tax Circular 19/2018 (Transaction for Sale of Rights in a Corporation that includes Consideration that will be transferred to the Seller at Future Dates), any payment payable pursuant to the Merger Agreement to any payee (other than holders of Section 102 Awards, Section 3(i) Options, and any other Merger Consideration issuable to payment recipients, which shall be delivered to the Section 102 Trustee or the 104H Trustee, as applicable), shall be paid to and retained by the Exchange Agent, in each case for the benefit of such payment recipient for a period of 365 days from the Closing Date or an earlier date required in writing by such payment recipient (the “Withholding Drop Date”), during which time unless requested otherwise by the ITA, no payments shall be made by the Exchange Agent to any payment recipient and no amounts for Israeli taxes shall be withheld from the payments or other consideration deliverable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, except as provided below and during which time each payment recipient may obtain a Valid Tax Certificate. If a payment recipient delivers, no later than three business days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a Valid Tax Certificate to the Exchange Agent, determining tax liability, such shareholder shall transfer the tax liability amount to the Exchange Agent, the deduction and withholding of any Israeli taxes shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Tax Certificate and the balance of the applicable Merger Consideration shall be paid and issued to such person. If any payment recipient either (a) does not provide the Exchange Agent with a Valid Tax Certificate by no later than three business days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (b) submits a written request to the Exchange Agent to release his, her or its portion of the Merger Consideration payable or otherwise deliverable prior to the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Valid Tax Certificate no later than three business days before such time, then the Exchange Agent will transfer the applicable Merger Consideration to such payment recipient only after such payment recipient will satisfy its Israel tax obligation to the sole satisfaction of Ondas or the Israeli Sub-Agent or the payment to the Israeli Sub-Agent of the withholding tax amount by the payment recipient. To the extent the Exchange Agent and/or the Israeli Sub-Agent withholds any amounts with respect to Israeli taxes, any amounts so withheld shall be treated for all purposes of the Merger Agreement as having been paid to the applicable payment recipient. If the applicable payment recipient does not satisfy his, her or its Israeli tax obligation to the satisfaction of Ondas or the Israeli Sub-Agent prior to the Withholding Drop Date, the Exchange Agent or the Israeli Sub-Agent will: (i) to the extent applicable, sell a portion of the Ondas common stock applicable to such payment recipient in the stock exchange, in order to allow the payment of any Israeli taxes as shall be determined by the Israeli Sub-Agent, and transfer the balance to the

applicable payment recipient; or (ii) at Ondas’ opinion, which cannot be exercised prior to three business days prior to the Withholding Drop Date and subject to the provisions of the Tax Rulings, if obtained and as applicable, deliver such Merger Consideration back to Ondas, to be paid and issued by Ondas to the applicable payment recipient only following full satisfaction of Israeli taxes to Ondas’ or the Israeli Sub-Agent’s sole satisfaction.

In the event that a Payor receives a written demand from the ITA, to withhold any amount out of the amount held by such Payor for distribution to a particular payee and transfer it to the ITA prior to the Withholding Drop Date, (a) such Payor will notify such payee, in writing, of such withholding reasonably promptly after receipt of such demand, and provide such payee with reasonable time (which shall not be less than 30 days, unless otherwise required by the ITA or any Applicable Law, including the Ordinance, as determined by Payor at its reasonable discretion) to attempt to delay such requirement or extend the period for complying with such requirement as evidenced by a written certificate, ruling, or confirmation from the ITA; and (b) to the extent that any such certificate, ruling, or confirmation is not provided by such payee to the Payor prior to the time required by the ITA or under any Applicable Law, the Exchange Agent shall deliver the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration to such payment recipient only after such payment recipient will satisfy its Israel tax obligation to the sole satisfaction of Ondas or the payment to Ondas of the withholding tax amount by the payment recipient, including any interest, indexation and fines required by the ITA in respect thereof.

Any payments made to holders of a Section 102 Award or a Section 3(i) Options will be subject to deduction or withholding of Israeli tax under the Ordinance on the 15th day of the calendar month following the month during which the Closing occurs, unless with respect to Israeli resident holders of Section 102 Awards and Section 3(i) options, the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling) has been obtained by the Closing, in which case Ondas or Airobotics or the 102 Trustee, or any Person acting on their behalf, will act in accordance with the Options Tax Ruling (or Interim Options Tax Ruling).

Any withholding made in NIS with respect to payments made hereunder in U.S. dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate on the date the payment is actually made to any recipient and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable payment recipient and deducted from payments to be made to such payment recipient.

If any of the Tax Rulings shall be obtained and delivered to Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the Israeli Sub-Agent and the trustee appointed under the 104H Tax Ruling, if any and as applicable, prior to the applicable withholding date, then the provisions of such Tax Rulings, as the case may be, shall apply and all applicable withholding procedures with respect to any recipients shall be made in accordance with the provisions of such Tax Rulings, as the case may be.

Conduct of Business of Ondas

Ondas has agreed that, except as expressly provided in the Merger Agreement, without the prior written consent of Airobotics, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, during the Interim Period, Ondas will not and will cause each of its subsidiaries to: (i) not take any action that would or would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impair or materially delay the ability of Airobotics, Ondas, or Merger Sub to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, (ii) conduct its operations in all material respects in the ordinary and usual course of business consistent with past practice, and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to preserve intact its corporate existence.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as expressly provided in the Merger Agreement, without the prior written consent of Airobotics, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, during the Interim Period, Ondas will not and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to (unless required by Applicable Law after consultation with counsel): (i) make or pay any dividend or other distribution (whether in cash, stock or property, any combination thereof or otherwise) in respect of its Capital Stock or any other equity securities or equity equivalents of Ondas or any of its subsidiaries, or (ii) purchase or otherwise acquire any of its securities; provided that Ondas may repurchase or otherwise acquire shares in connection with (a) the applicable plans, agreements or arrangements pursuant to which any option, warrant or other right to purchase equity interests of Ondas (each, an “Ondas Option”) has been issued or may be issued in effect as of the date of the Merger Agreement, (b) the acceptance of Ondas common stock as payment for the per share exercise price of any Ondas Option or as payment for taxes incurred in connection with the exercise, vesting and/or settlement of any Ondas Option, in each case in accordance with the applicable plans described in clause (a) of this paragraph, or (c) the forfeiture of any Ondas Option.

Form S-4; Shareholder Meeting and Board Recommendation

This prospectus forms part of a Registration Statement on form S-4, which has been filed by Ondas with the SEC. Each of Ondas and Airobotics has agreed to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and prior to the effective date of the Form S-4, take all action reasonably required to be taken under any applicable state or other securities Laws in connection with the issuance of the Ondas common stock in connection with the Merger and to keep the Form S-4 effective through the Closing Date in order to permit the consummation of the Merger.

The Merger Agreement requires Airobotics to as soon as reasonably practicable, take all action necessary under Applicable Law to set a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of its shareholders (together with any adjournment or postponement of the special meeting) for the purpose of seeking the requisite approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Airobotics will submit the proposal for the approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby to its shareholders at such meeting and not submit any other proposal in connection with such meeting without Ondas’ prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably held, conditioned or delayed, other than (a) a customary proposal regarding

adjournment of the meeting, (b) any proposal that Airobotics is required to submit under Applicable Law, and (c) any proposal that is related or inherent to the Merger. Airobotics is only entitled to adjourn or postpone the special meeting with Ondas’ consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or (1) after consultation with Ondas, if adjournment or postponement is necessary to ensure any supplement or amendment to the proxy statement relating to the shareholder meeting is provided to shareholders within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the special meeting, or (2) to a date that is in the aggregate not more than 30 days following the originally scheduled date (or the date rescheduled per the prior clause) if there are not sufficient votes at such meeting to constitute a quorum or to obtain the required approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, in to allow reasonable additional time for solicitation of proxies.

If the Airobotics Board has not made an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined below under “ — Adverse Recommendation Change; Certain Prohibited Actions”) in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement requires that the Airobotics Board (1) recommend that Airobotics shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein (the “Airobotics Recommendation”), (2) include the Airobotics Recommendation in the proxy statement relating to the shareholder meeting and (3) use its reasonable best efforts to (a) solicit from its shareholders proxies in favor of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, and (b) otherwise seek to obtain shareholder approval at the shareholder meeting.

Even if an Adverse Recommendation Change has been made pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, unless the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the obligations of the parties under the Merger Agreement will continue in full force and effect. Unless the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, neither the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to Airobotics of any Third Party Acquisition Proposal, nor the making of any Adverse Recommendation Change will affect the obligations of Airobotics to set a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Airobotics shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

•        the execution and delivery of any additional instruments that are or may become reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to complete the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and to carry out fully the purposes of the Merger Agreement.

To the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Authority, each party has agreed to consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, letters, white papers, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions or proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of either such party in connection with the proceedings under or relating to any foreign, national, federal or state antitrust, anticompetition or fair trade law. Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement will promptly inform the other of any material communication between such party and any national, federal, foreign or state antitrust or competition Governmental Entity regarding the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each of Ondas and Merger Sub will, and will cause their respective subsidiaries to (if applicable) on the one hand, and Airobotics on the other hand will: (i) furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with the preparation of any governmental filings, submissions or other documents, (ii) give the other reasonable prior notice of any such filing, submission or other document and, to the extent reasonably practicable, of any communication with or from any Governmental Entity regarding the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and permit the other to review (to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law or the applicable Governmental Entity) and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views, and secure the participation of the other in connection with any such filing, submission, document or substantive communication and (iii) cooperate in responding as promptly as reasonably practicable to any investigation or other inquiry from a Governmental Entity or in connection with any Proceeding initiated by a Governmental Entity or private party. In addition, each of the parties to the Merger Agreement will give reasonable prior notice to and consult with the other in advance of any meeting, conference or substantive communication with any Governmental Entity, or in connection with any Proceeding by a private party, with any other Person, and to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Entity, not participate or attend any meeting or conference or engage in any communication with any Governmental Entity or such other Person in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement without offering the other party the possibility to participate, attend or engage in such meetings, conferences or communications, and in the event one party is prohibited from, or unable to participate, attend or engage in, any such meeting, conference or substantive communication, keep such party apprised with respect thereto. Each party to the Merger Agreement will provide the other with copies of all filings, submissions, correspondence and communications between it and its subsidiaries and their respective representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or members of any Government Entity’s staff (or any other Person in connection with any legal, administrative or other similar proceeding or action initiated by a private party), on the other hand, with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

Israeli Approvals

Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to deliver and file, as promptly as practicable after the date of Merger Agreement, each notice, report, or other document required to be delivered by such party or any subsidiary to or filed by such party or any subsidiary of such party with, and to obtain any required approval of, any Israeli Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

•        as promptly as practicable after the date of the Merger Agreement, Ondas and Airobotics will prepare and file the notifications required, if any, to the Israeli Competition Authority (the “ICA”) under the Israeli Economic Competition Law (1998) (the “Competition Law”), in connection with the Merger;

•        Ondas and Airobotics shall respond as promptly as practicable to any inquiries or requests received from the General Director of the ICA for additional information or documentation;

•        Ondas and Airobotics shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain, as promptly as practicable after the date of the Merger Agreement, any consents and approvals from Israeli Governmental Entities, if any, that may be required in connection with the Merger; and

•        Airobotics shall inform the IIA regarding the transactions under the Merger Agreement as required under the Law for the Encouragement of Research, Development and Technological Innovation – 5744-1984 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “R&D Law”); Ondas shall provide to the IIA, the General Director of the ICA, and the ISA any information reasonably requested by such authorities and shall execute an undertaking in customary form to comply with the R&D Law.

Each of the parties to the Merger Agreement shall (i) give the other parties prompt notice of the commencement of any legal, administrative or other similar proceeding against it by or before any Governmental Entity with respect to the Merger, (ii) keep the other parties reasonably informed as to the status of any such legal, administrative or other similar proceeding and (iii) promptly inform the other parties of any communication to or from the General Director of the ICA, the IIA, the Israeli Investment Center, the ISA, the Companies Registrar, the TASE or any other Israeli Governmental Entity regarding the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The parties to the Merger Agreement will consult and cooperate with one another and will consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any Israeli legal, administrative or other similar proceeding relating to the Merger. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Israeli Governmental Entity or by any Israeli legal requirement, in connection with any such legal, administrative or other similar proceeding under or relating to the Israeli Competition Law and any applicable Guidelines of the ICA or any other Israeli antitrust or fair trade law, each party to the Merger Agreement will permit authorized representatives of the other party to be present at each meeting or conference relating to any such legal, administrative or other similar proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Israeli Governmental Entity in connection with any such legal, administrative or other similar proceeding.

None of Ondas, Airobotics or Merger Sub will be obligated to pay any consideration or offer to grant, or agree to, any financial or other accommodation to any Person from whom any such approval or consent is requested or otherwise in connection with, or as a condition to obtaining, any such approval or consent (other than nominal fees which individually or in the aggregate do not exceed $100,000).

Merger Proposal; Certificate of Merger

Subject to the ICL and the regulations promulgated thereunder, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of the Merger Agreement, Airobotics, Ondas and Merger Sub will, as applicable, take the following actions:

•        As promptly as practicable following the date of the Merger Agreement, cause the Merger Proposal to be executed in accordance with the ICL;

•        Within 4 business days from the date of submitting the Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar, send a notice by registered mail to all substantial creditors (as defined in the regulations promulgated under the ICL) that the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, is aware of, in which it shall state that a Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar and that the creditors may review the Merger Proposal at such additional locations, if such locations were determined in notice as described above;

•        Send to the Company’s “employees committee”, if any, or display in a prominent place at the Company’s premises a copy of the notice published in a daily Hebrew newspaper no later than 3 business days following the day on which such Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar;

•        Not later than 3 days after the date on which the Airobotics shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, inform the Companies Registrar of such approval; and

•        In accordance with the customary practice of the Companies Registrar, request that the Companies Registrar declare the Merger effective and issue the Certificate of Merger upon such date, that in no event shall be prior to the lapse of 50 days from the filing of the Merger Proposal with the Companies Registrar and 30 days from the date on which the Airobotics shareholders approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, as the Company and Merger Sub shall advise the Companies Registrar.

Other Proposals

Without the prior written consent of Ondas, during the Interim Period, Airobotics will not, and will not authorize or permit any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or its or their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, investment bankers, financial advisors, auditors, legal counsel, agents and other representatives (“Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) discuss, pursue, solicit, initiate or knowingly, or take any action which would be reasonably expected to, encourage or facilitate (including by way of furnishing information) or take any other action to facilitate knowingly any inquiries or the making of any proposal which constitutes or may reasonably be expected to lead to a Third Party Acquisition Proposal from any Person (provided that, if Airobotics receives, prior to the Airobotics shareholder vote required to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby being obtained, a bona fide Third Party Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of the no shop covenants in the Merger Agreement, Airobotics may contact the person who has made such Third Party Acquisition Proposal solely for purposes of requesting a clarification of any ambiguous terms and conditions thereof (and not for purposes of negotiating or engaging in any discussions regarding or relating thereto) so that Airobotics may inform itself about such Third Party Acquisition Proposal solely to the extent necessary to comply with the fiduciary duties of the Airobotics Board under Applicable Law), (ii) enter into, continue, engage in or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations relating to or furnish to any Person any confidential information with respect to or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Third Party Acquisition Proposal (except to notify the third party of the existence of these provisions), or (iii) approve, recommended or publicly propose to approve or recommend, or enter into any contract with respect to, agree to, approve or recommend any Third Party Acquisition Proposal.

Airobotics may at any time prior to the time that the Airobotics shareholder vote required to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is obtained:

a.      engage in discussions or negotiations with any person, entity or group other than Ondas, Merger Sub or any affiliate thereof (a “Third Party”) (and may furnish such Third Party information concerning Airobotics, its subsidiaries or their respective businesses, properties or assets) who (without any solicitation, initiation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation, directly or indirectly, by or with Airobotics or the Representatives after the date of the Merger Agreement and without any other breach by Airobotics of its obligations under the no shop covenants in the Merger Agreement) makes an unsolicited bona fide written Third Party Acquisition Proposal that the Airobotics Board concludes constitutes (or is reasonably likely to result in) a Superior Proposal (as defined below); provided that (1) the Airobotics Board shall conclude in good faith, after (x) consultation with, and taking into account the advice of, its outside legal counsel and financial advisor, that such Third Party Acquisition Proposal constitutes (or is reasonably likely to result in) a Superior Proposal, (y) considering Applicable Law, and (z) consultation with, and taking into account the advice of, its outside legal counsel, that such action is necessary for the Airobotics Board to act in a manner consistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary duties, the Airobotics Board (or a committee thereof) may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Applicable Law), (2) prior to furnishing such information to or entering into discussions or negotiations with such Third Party, Airobotics receives from such Third Party an executed confidentiality agreement in substantially the form of the confidentiality agreement entered into by Ondas and Airobotics with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, provided that any information provided to such Third Party has also previously been provided to Ondas or is provided to Ondas prior to or substantially concurrently with the time it is provided to such Third Party, and (3) Airobotics shall have fully complied with the no shop covenants in the Merger Agreement;

b.      Make an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined below); or

c.      accept a Superior Proposal (which Superior Proposal did not result from a breach of the no shop covenants in the Merger Agreement) if the Airobotics Board concludes, after consultation with, and taking into account the advice of outside counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary duties, the Airobotics Board (or a committee thereof) may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Applicable Law), and which the Airobotics Board has determined in good faith, after consultation with, and taking into account the advice of, its financial advisor and its outside counsel, constitutes a Superior Proposal;

provided, however, that Airobotics shall not execute a definitive agreement with respect to a Superior Proposal unless immediately thereafter Airobotics shall have terminated the Merger Agreement and has paid the Termination Fee; and provided further that Airobotics may not terminate the Merger Agreement as set forth above or make an Adverse Recommendation Change until after the fourth (4th) business day following receipt by Ondas of written notice (a “Notice of Superior Proposal”) from Airobotics advising Ondas that the Airobotics Board intends to take such actions and specifying the reasons therefor, including the material terms and conditions of (and documents relating to) such Superior Proposal (and the identity of the Third Party making such Superior Proposal) that is the basis of the proposed action by the Airobotics Board and a statement that the Airobotics Board intends to terminate the Merger Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof or make such Adverse Recommendation Change, as applicable. If requested by Ondas, Airobotics and its Representatives shall engage in good faith negotiations with Ondas and its Representatives, for a period of 4 Business Days, to, among other things, amend the Merger Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements in such a manner that (i) the Third Party Acquisition Proposal which was determined to constitute a Superior Proposal no longer is a Superior Proposal, and (ii) the failure of Airobotics to accept such a Superior Proposal or make such Adverse Recommendation Change would no longer be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Applicable Laws (it being understood and agreed that (x) any amendment to the financial terms or any other material amendment of such Superior Proposal shall require a new Notice of Superior Proposal and a new three business day period, and (y) in determining whether to cause or permit Airobotics to so terminate the Merger Agreement or make such Adverse Recommendation Change, the Airobotics Board shall take into account any changes to the financial or other terms of the Merger Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements proposed in writing by Ondas to Airobotics in response to a Notice of Superior Proposal or otherwise, and the Airobotics Board at the end of the negotiation period, after consultation with, and taking into account the advice of, outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, shall have in good faith reaffirmed its determination that such bona fide Third Party Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal).

Airobotics shall and shall cause its subsidiaries and direct its Representatives to immediately cease and terminate any existing solicitation, initiation, encouragement, activity, discussion or negotiation with any Third Party conducted heretofore by Airobotics or its Representatives with respect to the foregoing, shall terminate data room access of all such Third Parties and shall request the prompt return or destruction of all confidential information previously furnished in connection therewith. Airobotics shall (i) notify Ondas in writing of any Third Party Acquisition Proposal received after the date of the Merger Agreement (including the material terms and conditions of any such Third Party Acquisition Proposal and the identity of the Person making it), within forty-eight (48) hours of the receipt thereof, and (ii) keep Ondas informed of the status and details of any such Third Party Acquisition Proposal and any material developments with respect to such Third Party Acquisition Proposal or request for information or other inquiry (including any material changes thereto).

Without derogating from the mechanism described above with respect to a Superior Proposal, during the Interim Period, Airobotics shall not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality or standstill contracts to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party (i) with any Third Party that has made or has indicated that it is considering making a Third Party Acquisition Proposal, or (ii) outside the ordinary course of business, without the prior written consent of Ondas. Without derogating from the mechanism described above with respect to a Superior Proposal, during the Interim Period, Airobotics shall enforce, as permitted under Applicable Law, the provisions of any such contracts, including obtaining injunctions to prevent any breaches of such contracts, and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions thereof in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Adverse Recommendation Change

Except as permitted by the Merger Agreement in the case of a Superior Proposal and under Applicable Law, the Airobotics Board will not (i) withdraw, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw, qualify or modify the Airobotics Recommendation, (ii) fail to include the Airobotics Recommendation in the proxy statement relating to the Airobotics shareholder meeting for the approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, (iii) publicly recommend or declare advisable any Third Party Acquisition Proposal, (iv) adopt, authorize or approve any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement providing for any Third Party Acquisition Proposal, other than as permitted by the no shop covenants of the Merger Agreement, or (v) fail to publicly reaffirm the Airobotics Recommendation within ten days after Ondas’ request (any action described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) of this paragraph, an “Adverse Recommendation Change”).

Other than in connection with a bona fide Third Party Acquisition Proposal that constitutes a Superior Proposal, at any time prior to the time that Airobotics shareholder approval required to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby is obtained, the Airobotics Board may make an Adverse Recommendation Change in response to a Company Intervening Event, if the Airobotics Board has determined in good faith after consultation with Airobotics’ outside legal counsel and financial advisors that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under Applicable Israeli Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary duties, the Airobotics Board may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Law); provided further that prior to making such Adverse Recommendation Change, (A) the Airobotics Board shall have given Ondas at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action and a description of the reasons for the Adverse Recommendation Change (it being understood that any material change in respect of such Company Intervening Event shall require a new notice but with an additional two (2) Business Day (instead of three (3) Business Day) notice period, (B) Airobotics shall have negotiated, and shall have caused its subsidiaries and shall have used its reasonable best efforts to cause its representatives to negotiate in good faith with Ondas during such notice period after the giving of such notice to the extent Ondas wishes to negotiate, to make such adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement so that the need for making such Adverse Recommendation Change would be obviated, and (C) at the end of such notice period, the Airobotics Board shall have considered in good faith such adjustments and shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor, that it is required to make such Adverse Recommendation Change in order to comply with its fiduciary duties to the shareholders of the Airobotics as a result of such Company Intervening Event.

Affiliates; Tax Rulings

As soon as practicable after the date of the Merger Agreement, Airobotics shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and/or accountants to prepare and file with the ITA an application for a ruling confirming that (i) the assumption and exchange of the Section 102 Options, Section 102 Non Trustee Options and Section 3(i) Options for the Assumed Options in accordance with the Merger Agreement and the exchange of Section 102 Shares and Section 102 Non Trustee Shares for Section 102 Share Consideration (the “Roll Over”) shall not constitute a taxable event so long the Section 102 Awards are deposited with the 102 Trustee and issued in accordance with the Airobotics Plan assumed by Ondas; and (ii) tax continuity shall apply with respect to the Roll Over (which ruling may be subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling) (the “Options Tax Ruling”). Airobotics shall include in the request for the Options Tax Ruling a request to exempt Ondas, the surviving corporation, the Exchange Agent and their respective agents from any withholding obligation with respect to the Section 102 Awards and Section 3(i) Options. The Options Tax Ruling may be a separate tax ruling or may be incorporated into the 104H Tax Ruling. If the Options Tax Ruling is not granted prior to the closing of the Merger or in accordance with the instructions of the ITA, Airobotics shall seek to obtain prior to the closing of the Merger an interim tax ruling confirming, among other things, that Ondas, Merger Sub, Paying Agent or any Person acting on their behalf (including the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Sub-Agent) shall be exempt from Israeli withholding tax in relation to any payments and the issuance of Assumed Options in exchange for Section 102 Options, Section 102 Non Trustee Options and Section 3(i) Options in connection with the Merger (the “Interim Options Tax Ruling”). To the extent that prior to the closing of the Merger an Interim Options Tax Ruling shall have been obtained, then all references in the Merger Agreement to the Options Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such Interim Options Tax Ruling, until such time that a final definitive Options Tax Ruling is obtained.

As soon as practicable after the date of the Merger Agreement, Airobotics shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and/or accountants to prepare and file with the ITA an application for a tax ruling permitting any certain shareholders who are covered by such tax ruling (each, an “Covered Seller”) to defer any applicable Israeli tax with respect to any consideration in Ondas common stock that such Covered Seller will receive pursuant to the Merger Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 104H of the Ordinance or as otherwise determined by the ITA (it being agreed that in connection therewith, Ondas shall not object to any restrictions, conditions or obligations that are either statutorily required pursuant to Section 104H or other applicable sections of the Ordinance, or are otherwise customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling or reasonably required by the ITA, including the deposit of the new Ondas common stock with a designated 104H trustee) (the “104H Tax Ruling”). Airobotics shall include in the request for the 104H Tax Ruling to exempt Ondas, the surviving corporation, the Exchange Agent, and their respective agents from any withholding obligation in connection with issuing Ondas common stock. If the 104H Tax Ruling is not granted prior to the closing of the Merger or in accordance with the instructions of the ITA, Airobotics shall seek to obtain prior to the closing of the Merger an interim tax ruling confirming, among other things, that (i) the cancellation and exchange of the Airobotics ordinary shares (other than Section 102 Awards and Section 3(i) Options) as part of the transaction shall not constitute a taxable event, and (ii) Ondas and any Person acting on its behalf (including the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Sub-Agent) shall be exempt from Israeli withholding tax in relation to issuance of Ondas commons stock in exchange for exchange of Airobotics ordinary shares in connection with the Merger (the “Interim 104H Tax Ruling”). To the extent that prior to the closing of the Merger an Interim 104H Tax Ruling shall have been obtained, then all references in the Merger Agreement to the 104H Tax Ruling will be deemed to refer to such Interim 104H Tax Ruling, until such time that a final definitive 104H Tax Ruling is obtained.

To the extent it is becomes reasonably apparent to Airobotics that the ITA will not provide the 104H Tax Ruling in the form requested or that, if obtained, certain shareholders may not be covered under the 104H Tax Ruling then as soon as practicable following the date of the Merger Agreement, Airobotics shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors, and accountants to prepare and file with the ITA an application for a ruling (the “Withholding Tax Ruling”, and, together with the Options Tax Ruling and the Interim Options Tax Ruling, the 104H Tax Ruling and the Interim 104H Tax Ruling — the “Tax Rulings”) that:

a)      with respect to holders of Airobotics ordinary shares (other than Section 102 Awards and Section 3(i) Options) that are non-Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA), (i) exempting Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Merger Agreement or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (ii) clearly instructing Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be implemented, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Airobotics ordinary shares from which tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied and how to identify any such non-Israeli residents;

b)      with respect to holders of Airobotics ordinary shares that are Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA) (other than Covered Sellers and the holders of Section 102 Awards and Section 3(i) Options for which such tax ruling shall explicitly and in writing defer to the 104H Ruling (or the Interim 104H Ruling) and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Tax Ruling), as applicable, (i) exempting Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, or (ii) clearly instructing Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be executed, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Airobotics ordinary shares from which tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied; and

c)      with respect to holders of Airobotics stock options that are not Section 102 Awards or Section 3(i) Options, who are non-Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA), (i) exempting Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Merger Agreement, or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (ii) instructing Ondas, the Exchange Agent, the surviving corporation and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be executed, the rate or rates of withholding to be applied and how to identify any such non-Israeli residents.

The text of the applications for, filing relating to, and the final text of the Tax Rulings will be subject to the prior written confirmation of Ondas or its counsel, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Airobotics and its counsel and advisors will not make any application to, or conduct any material negotiations with the ITA with respect to matters relating to the subject matter of the Tax Rulings, without prior coordination with Ondas or its counsel, and will enable Ondas’ counsel to participate in all discussions and meetings relating thereto. To the extent that Ondas’ counsel elects not to participate in any meeting or discussion, Airobotics’ representatives will provide Ondas’ counsel with a full report of the discussions held within two business days of such meeting or discussion.

Ondas will, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to assist Airobotics to obtain the Tax Rulings. Airobotics will, and will cause each of its subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary to assist Ondas and Merger Sub to obtain the Tax Rulings. Ondas will comply and cause its subsidiaries to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Tax Rulings and refrain from taking or failing to take such actions, which actions or omissions would or would be reasonably expected to breach, jeopardize or adversely change the effectiveness of, and/or the favorable tax treatment prescribed under, such Tax Rulings.

For more information regarding such tax rulings, see “The Merger — Certain Israeli Tax Consequences of the Merger”. In the event that any of the tax ruling has not been received in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, Ondas may make such payments and withhold any applicable taxes as described above in the section “ — Conversion of Shares; Exchange Procedures; Withholding”.

Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance

The parties have agreed that all rights, existing at the time of the Merger Agreement, to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities (including advancement of expenses) for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees of Airobotics (the “D&O Indemnified Parties”) as provided in the articles of association of Airobotics or in any indemnification contract between such person and Airobotics (in each case as in effect on and in the case of indemnification contracts, to the extent made available to Ondas, prior to the date of the Merger Agreement) will survive the Merger and will continue in full force and effect. For seven years after the Effective Time, Ondas will cause the surviving corporation to maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses equivalent to the provisions of the articles of association of Airobotics as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time and will not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any of the D&O Indemnified Parties.

At or prior to the Effective Time, Airobotics will use reasonable best efforts to obtain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering Airobotics’ officers and directors. At the Closing, Airobotics will use reasonable best efforts to obtain, maintain and fully pay for irrevocable “tail” or “runoff” insurance policies naming the D&O Indemnified Parties as direct beneficiaries with a claims period of at least seven years from the Closing Date (each, a “D&O Tail Policy”) in an amount and scope at least as favorable to Airobotics’ directors and officers as Airobotics’ existing policies (if any) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date. If Airobotics obtains a prepaid D&O Tail Policy, Ondas and the surviving corporation shall maintain such policies in full force and effect for their full term. In the event Airobotics is unable to purchase a D&O Tail Policy prior to the Effective Time, Ondas will purchase or allow Airobotics to purchase a D&O Tail Policy following the Effective Time; provided that the cost of such D&O Tail Policy does not exceed 300% of the current annual premium.

Israeli Securities Authority Approval; Dual Listing

Prior to the execution of the Merger Agreement, the counsels for the parties jointly prepared and Airobotics filed an application with the ISA for a No-Action Letter (the “ISA Exemption Application” and an “ISA Exemption”, respectively). Ondas shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the ISA Exemption. If an ISA Exemption has not been obtained by the date that is forty-five (45) days after the execution of the Merger Agreement, Ondas shall prepare and use reasonable best efforts to receive a permit from TASE for a registration statement with respect to the dual listing of the Ondas common stock, including all shares of common stock underlying shares of Ondas’ convertible securities, at the TASE (the “Dual Listing Permit”) or a permit from the ISA and the TASE to publish a prospectus which would also apply to the Merger Consideration, as the case may be (the “Israel Prospectus Permit”, and any subsequent action taken on the basis of a Dual Listing Permit or an Israel Prospectus Permit, an “Israel Prospectus”).

In October 2022, Ondas’ application for no-action was denied by the ISA. In light of the above and per the provisions of the Merger Agreement, Ondas submitted an application for the registration of its securities (including those to be issued to Airobotics’ security holders as the Merger Consideration) for trading in the TASE, by way of dual listing. The application was submitted to the ISA and the TASE and the application is currently under review thereby.

Airobotics and Ondas shall cooperate in connection with (i) the preparation and filing of all documents pertaining to the Dual Listing Permit or the Israel Prospectus Permit, as applicable, and (ii) the preparation of any written or oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the ISA Exemption, ISA Options Exemption or to receive the Dual Listing Permit or the Israel Prospectus Permit, as applicable, or otherwise needed for the offering of the Merger Consideration to comply with the Israeli Securities Law. Each of Airobotics and Ondas shall promptly notify the other upon the receipt of any comments from the ISA or the TASE or any request from the ISA or the TASE, including with respect to amendments or supplements to (x) the request for the ISA Exemption and ISA Options Exemption, or (y) the request for the Dual Listing Permit or the Israel Prospectus Permit, and shall provide the other with copies of all correspondence between it and its representatives, on the one hand, and the ISA or the TASE, on the other hand, with respect thereto. Each of Airobotics and Ondas shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond as soon as reasonably practicable to any comments from the ISA and the TASE, including with respect to the ISA Exemption Application, ISA Options Exemption Application, the ISA Exemption, the ISA Options Exemption, the Dual Listing Permit or the Israel Prospectus Permit, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final version of the ISA Exemption Application, ISA Options Exemption Application, the ISA Exemption, the ISA Options Exemption, the Dual Listing Permit, or the Israel Prospectus Permit, as applicable, including any documents and exhibits enclosed thereto need to be approved by both Ondas and Airobotics, provided that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

In the event that the No-Action Letter has not been obtained by the date that is forty-five (45) days after the execution of the Merger Agreement, Ondas shall take all necessary action in order to obtain an exemption under Section 15D of the Israeli Securities Law with respect to the assumption of the Airobotics stock options (the “ISA Options Exemption Application” and an “ISA Options Exemption”, respectively).
