On September 26, 2024, Wearable Devices Ltd. (the “Company”) convened its Annual and Special General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”).
At the Meeting, a quorum was present and the shareholders of the Company voted upon and approved, by the applicable required majority, Proposal Nos. 1 through 5 and Proposal Nos. 7 through 13, as were proposed and described in the Company’s Notice and Proxy Statement for the Meeting, which were included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 22, 2024 (the “Proxy Statement”). Following the approval of Proposal No. 3, Proposal No. 6 was not voted upon at the Meeting, as originally described in the Company’s Proxy Statement.
Amended and Restated Compensation Policy
At the Meeting, among other items, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the current Compensation Policy for the Company’s Executive Officers and Directors (the “Compensation Policy”). The amendment to the Compensation Policy relates to, among other things: (1) the exchange of basic salary and/or accrued and unpaid cash salary given to office holders, with equity-based compensation upon the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors’ decision and subject to several limitations under the Compensation Policy and under the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999; (2) increased limits of insurer’s liability per claim as set under the Company’s insurance policy; (3) recoupment in accordance with the Company’s Recoupment Policy; and (4) the ability to adopt, from time to time, an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or any similar plan (and to amend such plans).
The foregoing description of the Compensation Policy is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Compensation Policy filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Amended and Restated Articles of Association
At the Meeting, among other items, the Company’s shareholders also approved the cancelation of the Company’s ordinary shares’ nominal value, and the amendment of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the “Articles”) to reflect the same. The amendment to the Articles became effective at the Meeting and immediately after shareholders’ approval. After giving effect to the cancelation of the nominal value of the Company’s ordinary shares, the authorized share capital of the Company, as set in the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association, are divided into 50,000,000 ordinary shares, no par value per share.
The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated Articles of Association, as amended, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended and Restated Articles of Association filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
