Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 23, 2022, Endurance received from the Israeli Tax Authority (the
"ITA") a tax ruling (the "Tax Ruling"), which provided, among other things, the
following (subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a
ruling):
(i) Israeli taxation of the exchange of the share capital of Endurance held by
a shareholder of Endurance who held less than five percent (5%) of the
share capital of Endurance (a "Transferring Shareholder") for SatixFy
ordinary shares will be deferred until the actual sale of the SatixFy
ordinary shares;
(ii) the exchange of Endurance warrants held by Transferring Shareholders for
SatixFy warrants will not be a taxable event in Israel; and
(iii) SatixFy is not required to withhold Israeli tax on any consideration paid
to the Transferring Shareholders.
The main conditions, limitations and restrictions under the Israeli Income Tax
Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961, that were imposed with respect to the Tax
Ruling were as follows:
(1) the ratio between the market value of the transferred Endurance ordinary
shares and the market value of the combined group immediately after the
exchange of shares needed to be equal to the ratio between the market value
of the issued SatixFy ordinary shares and the market value of all rights in
the combined group immediately after the exchange of shares;
(2) the SatixFy ordinary shares issued to all of the transferors were to grant
equal rights to all of such transferors; and
(3) all of the shares and all of the rights of a transferor (and of parties
associated with it) to purchase shares in Endurance were to be transferred as
part of the exchange of shares.
Endurance believes that each of the foregoing conditions, limitations and
restrictions that were imposed by the ITA with respect to the Tax Ruling were
complied with as part of the consummation of the Business Combination, and that
the Tax Ruling may be relied upon.
The foregoing summary of the Tax Ruling does not purport to be complete and is
subject to and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Tax Ruling,
which is filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto, the terms of which are incorporated
herein by reference.
On October 27, 2022, Sensegain Prodigy Cayman Fund SP3 ("Sensegain") defaulted
on its commitment to purchase units it had subscribed for in connection with the
PIPE financing pursuant to that certain Unit Subscription Agreement (the
"Subscription Agreement"), dated as of March 8, 2022. As a result of the
default, out of the $29.1 million previously committed by subscribers pursuant
to the Subscription Agreements, SatixFy received $20 million in proceeds from
the PIPE financing. SatixFy has notified Sensegain of its intention to enforce
Sensegain's obligations under its Subscription Agreement.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by
the use of words such as "estimate," "plan," "project," "forecast," "intend,"
"will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "seek," "target" or other similar
expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not
statements of historical matters. These statements are based on various
assumptions, whether or not identified in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and
on the current expectations of SatixFy's and Endurance's management and are not
predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided
for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be
relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a
definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are
difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual
events and circumstances are beyond the control of SatixFy and Endurance. These
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
including the risk that SatixFy and its current and future collaborators are
unable to successfully develop and commercialize SatixFy's products or
technologies, including the compact electronically steered multi-beam array
designed for mobility services, or experience significant delays in doing so;
the ability for SatixFy or its collaborators to obtain the necessary approvals
and certifications for SatixFy's products and technologies; the ability for
SatixFy or its collaborators to achieve milestones under the ESA Sunrise
Partnership Project; potential design flaws or performance issues in SatixFy's
products and technologies that may not be discovered or discoverable during
product trials and demonstrations; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may
be instituted against SatixFy or Endurance, the Surviving Company or others
following the announcement of the Business Combination; the ability to meet
stock exchange listing standards following the consummation of the Business
Combination; the risk that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and
operations of SatixFy as a result of the announcement and consummation of the
Business Combination; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the
Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition,
the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably,
maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key
employees and the execution of the CEO transition plan; costs related to the
Business Combination; changes in applicable laws or regulations; SatixFy's
estimates of expenses and profitability and underlying assumptions with respect
to shareholder redemptions and purchase price and other adjustments; any
downturn or volatility in economic conditions; the effects of COVID-19 or other
epidemics; changes in the competitive environment affecting SatixFy or its
customers, including SatixFy's inability to introduce new products or
technologies; the impact of pricing pressure and erosion; supply chain risks;
risks to SatixFy's ability to protect its intellectual property and avoid
infringement by others, or claims of infringement against SatixFy; the
possibility that SatixFy or Endurance may be adversely affected by other
economic, business and/or competitive factors; SatixFy's estimates of its
financial performance; risks related to the fact that SatixFy is incorporated in
Israel and governed by Israeli law; the factors disclosed in the Registration
Statement under the heading "Risk Factors"; and those factors discussed in
Endurance's final prospectus dated September 14, 2021 and Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, in each case, under the
heading "Risk Factors," and other documents of Endurance filed, or to be filed,
with the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by
these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither
SatixFy nor Endurance presently know or that SatixFy and Endurance currently
believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those
contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking
statements reflect SatixFy's and Endurance's expectations, plans or forecasts of
future events and views as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
SatixFy and Endurance anticipate that subsequent events and developments will
cause SatixFy's and Endurance's assessments to change. However, while SatixFy
and Endurance may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point
in the future, SatixFy and Endurance specifically disclaim any obligation to do
so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing
SatixFy's and Endurance's assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of
this press release. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the
forward-looking statements.
