To the Holder of Ordinary Shares Purchase Warrants Issued on January 30, 2025 and November 27, 2024
| Re: | Inducement Offer to Exercise Existing Ordinary Shares Purchase Warrants |
Dear Holder:
Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company”) is pleased to offer (this “Inducement Offer”) to you (“Holder”, “you” or similar terminology) the opportunity to receive new warrants (the “New Warrants”) to purchase up to 1,661,000 shares (the “New Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s ordinary shares, no par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), which is equal to 200% of the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 830,500 Ordinary Shares currently held by you and consisting of: (i) a warrant to purchase up to 625,000 Ordinary Shares issued to you on January 30, 2025 (the “January Warrants”), and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 205,500 Ordinary Shares issued to you on November 27, 2024 (the “November Warrants” and together with the January Warrants, the “Existing Warrants”), as more particularly set forth on the signature page hereto, in consideration for exercising for cash any or all such Existing Warrants. The issuance, or resale, of the Ordinary Shares underlying the November Warrants have been registered pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-283771). The issuance, or resale, of the Ordinary Shares underlying the January Warrants have been registered pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-284023). The Ordinary Shares underlying the Existing Warrants are referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares” and the effective registration statements on Form F-1 referenced in the foregoing sentences are referred to herein as the “Registration Statements.” The Registration Statements are currently effective and, upon exercise of the Existing Warrants pursuant to this letter agreement, will remain effective for the resale of the Warrant Shares. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the New Warrants (as defined hereinafter).
The Company is making you this offer during the period from the date of this Inducement Offer set forth above and until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on April 29, 2025 (the “Exercise Period”). Exercise of the Existing Warrants may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times during the Exercise Period by delivery to the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise attached to the Existing Warrants, as applicable; provided, that the exercise of Existing Warrants will be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price (as defined below) to the Company.
1
The Company desires to reduce the Exercise Price of the Existing Warrants to $1.45 per share (the “Exercise Price”). In consideration for exercising the Existing Warrants held by the Holder, and each time that the Holder exercises Existing Warrants pursuant to the terms of this Offer (the “Warrant Exercise”), the Company hereby offers to issue you or your designees:
| (a) | unregistered New Warrants to purchase up to 1,661,000 New Warrant Shares, which equals 200% of the number of Warrant Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Existing Warrants, which New Warrants shall be issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), which New Warrants shall be substantially in the form as set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The New Warrants will be exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance, have an exercise price of $1.45 per share and have a term of exercise of five (5) years from the date of issuance; and |
| (b) | the New Warrants certificates will be delivered within one (1) Trading Day following the Warrant Exercise, and such New Warrants, together with any Warrant Shares, shall, unless and until registered, contain customary restrictive legends and other language typical for an unregistered warrant and unregistered shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any Warrant Exercise would otherwise cause the Holder to exceed the beneficial ownership limitations (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”) set forth in Section 2(e) of the Existing Warrants (or, if applicable and at the Holder’s election, 9.99%), the Company shall only issue such number of Warrant Shares to the Holder that would not cause the Holder to exceed the maximum number of Warrant Shares permitted thereunder, as directed by the Holder, with the balance to be held in abeyance until notice from the Holder that the balance (or portion thereof) may be issued in compliance with such limitations, which abeyance shall be evidenced through the Existing Warrants which shall be deemed prepaid thereafter (including the payment in full of the exercise price), and exercised pursuant to a Notice of Exercise in the Existing Warrants (provided no additional exercise price shall be due and payable). The parties hereby agree that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation for purposes of the Existing Warrants is as set forth on the Holder’s signature page hereto. |
Expressly subject to the paragraph immediately following this paragraph below, the Holder may accept this offer by signing this letter below, which constitutes the Holder’s acceptance to exercise Existing Warrants at the Holder’s own discretion subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation set forth in Section 2(e) of the Existing Warrants.
In addition, the Company agrees to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth on Annex A attached hereto.
The Holder represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, the Holder is fully aware of, and has reviewed all of the Company’s public filings.
Holder represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof it is, and on each date on which it exercises any New Warrants it will be, an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, and agrees that the New Warrants will contain restrictive legends when issued, and neither the New Warrants nor the New Warrant Shares will be registered under the Securities Act, except as provided in Annex A attached hereto. Also, the Holder represents and warrants that it is acquiring the New Warrants as principal for its own account and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understandings with any other persons to distribute or regarding the distribution of the New Warrants or the New Warrant Shares (this representation is not limiting Holder’s right to sell the New Warrant Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or otherwise in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws).
2
The Holder understands that the issuance of the New Warrants and the New Warrant Shares are not, and may never be, registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state and, accordingly, each certificate, if any, representing such securities shall bear a legend substantially similar to the following:
“THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, THIS SECURITY MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.”
Upon the Holder’s exercise of the New Warrants, certificates evidencing the New Warrant Shares shall not contain any legend (including the legend set forth above), (i) while a registration statement covering the resale of such New Warrant Shares is effective under the Securities Act, (ii) following any sale of such New Warrant Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) if such New Warrant Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the New Warrants), without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 as to such New Warrant Shares and without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, (iv) if such New Warrant Shares may be sold under Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the New Warrants) and the Company is then in compliance with the current public information requirement under Rule 144 as to such New Warrant Shares, or (v) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the earliest of clauses (i) through (v), the “Delegend Date”)). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Delegend Date if required by the Company and/or the Transfer Agent to effect the removal of the legend hereunder, or at the request of the Holder, which opinion shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Holder. From and after the Delegend Date, such New Warrant Shares shall be issued free of all legends, provided that, upon request of the Company (which request shall also include a form of customary representation letter), the Holder has delivered in advance to the Company a customary representation letter that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and its counsel. The Company agrees that following the Delegend Date or at such time as such legend is no longer required under this Section, it will, no later than one (1) Trading Day following the delivery by the Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of a certificate representing the New Warrant Shares issued with a restrictive legend, along with such certificate(s) or other documentation reasonably requested by the Company’s counsel and/or the Company’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), including a customary representation letter, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company’s counsel and/or the Transfer Agent (such first (1st) Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to the Holder a certificate representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends or, at the request of the Holder, shall credit the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by the Holder.
In addition to the Holder’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to a Holder, in cash, (i) as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of New Warrant Shares (based on the VWAP of the Ordinary Shares on the date such New Warrant Shares are submitted to the Transfer Agent) delivered for removal of the restrictive legend, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day five (5) Trading Days after such damages have begun to accrue) for each Trading Day after the Legend Removal Date until such certificate is delivered without a legend and (ii) if the Company fails to (a) issue and deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Holder by the Legend Removal Date a certificate representing the New Warrant Shares free from all restrictive and other legends and (b) if after the Legend Removal Date the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of all or any portion of the number of Ordinary Shares, or a sale of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to all or any portion of the number of Ordinary Shares that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company without any restrictive legend, then, an amount equal to the excess of the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased (including brokerage commissions and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) over the product of (A) such number of New Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder by the Legend Removal Date and for which the Holder was required to purchase shares to timely satisfy delivery requirements, multiplied by (B) the weighted average price at which the Holder sold that number of Ordinary Shares.
3
If this offer is accepted and this offer letter is executed, then on or before 8:30 a.m., Eastern Time, on the Trading Day following the date hereof, the Company shall issue a press release and/or file a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K with the Commission disclosing all material terms of the transactions contemplated hereunder, including this letter agreement as an exhibit thereto with the Commission. From and after the issuance of such press release or filing of such Current Report on Form 8-K, as applicable, the Company represents to you that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to you by the Company, or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder. In addition, effective upon the issuance of such press release and/or filing of such Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and you and your Affiliates on the other hand, shall terminate. The Company represents, warrants and covenants that, upon acceptance of this offer, and upon issuance of the Warrant Shares, the Warrant Shares shall be issued free of any legends or restrictions on resale by Holder.
No later than the first (1st) Trading Day following the date hereof, the closing (“Closing”) shall occur at such location as the parties shall mutually agree. Unless otherwise directed by A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners. (the “Financial Advisor”), settlement of the Warrant Shares shall occur via “Delivery Versus Payment” (“DVP”) (i.e., on the Closing Date, the Company shall issue the Warrant Shares registered in the Holder’s name and address provided to the Company in writing and released by the Transfer Agent directly to the account(s) at the Financial Advisor identified by the Holder; upon receipt of such Warrant Shares, the Financial Advisor shall promptly electronically deliver such Warrant Shares to the Holder, and payment therefor shall concurrently be made to the Company by the Financial Advisor (or its clearing firm) by wire transfer to the Company). The date of the Closing of the exercise of the Existing Warrants shall be referred to as the “Closing Date”.
Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this letter agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law thereof. Each party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of the transactions contemplated by this letter agreement and the New Warrant (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective affiliates, directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of New York.

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If any party shall commence an action or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this letter agreement or the New Warrant, then, in addition to the obligations of the Company under the following paragraph, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, the Company will indemnify and hold each Holder and its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees and agents (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title), each Person who controls each Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, shareholders, agents, members, partners or employees (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding a lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling persons (each, a “Holder Party”) harmless from any and all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, contingencies, damages, costs and expenses, including all judgments, amounts paid in settlements, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation that any such Holder Party may suffer or incur as a result of or relating to (a) any material breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company in this offer letter or the New Warrant or (b) any action instituted against each Holder Parties in any capacity, or any of them or their respective Affiliates, by any stockholder of the Company who is not an Affiliate of such Holder Party, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this offer letter or the New Warrant (unless such action is solely based upon a material breach of such Holder Party’s representations, warranties or covenants under this offer letter or any agreements or understandings such Holder Party may have with any such stockholder or any violations by such Holder Party of state or federal securities laws or any conduct by such Holder Party which is finally judicially determined to constitute fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (c) in connection with the Registration Statements or the Resale Registration Statement, the Company will indemnify each Holder Party, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses, as incurred, arising out of or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statements or the Resale Registration Statement, any prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or supplement thereto, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon information regarding such Holder Party furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder Party expressly for use therein, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder in connection therewith.

The Company will not be liable to any Holder Party under this Agreement (1) for any settlement by a Holder Party effected without the Company’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; or (2) to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to any Holder Party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by such Holder Party in this offer letter or the New Warrant. The indemnification required by this paragraph shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or are incurred; provided, however, that if it is subsequently determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that each Holder was not entitled to receive such payments, each Holder shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days) return such payments to the Company.

| i. | Until thirty (30) days following the date of this letter agreement, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall (A) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Shares Equivalents or (B) file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement to any existing registration statement (other than the filing of (x) the Resale Registration Statement referred to herein, (y) any prospectus or prospectus supplement, or (z) a registration statement on Form S-8 in connection with any employee benefit plan); provided, however, the Company may enter into this Inducement Agreement and any other inducement agreement entered into by other holders of Existing Warrants with respect to the inducement offer being made herein.

The Holder shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the Company to preclude any such issuance, which remedy shall be in addition to any right to collect damages. “Ordinary Shares Equivalents” means any securities of the Company or its subsidiaries which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Ordinary Shares, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Ordinary Shares. |
| iii. | Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section (h) shall not apply in respect of an Exempt Issuance. |
| iv. | The Holder consents to the use of the proceeds from the exercise of the Existing Warrants to settle outstanding litigation. |
| (i) | Blue Sky Filings. The Company shall take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for, or to qualify the New Warrants and New Warrant Shares for, sale to the Holder at Closing under applicable securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the states of the United States, and shall provide evidence of such actions promptly upon request of any Holder. |
