with an IPO in accordance with this Agreement), all decisions of any Group Company on the matters set forth below shall, in each case,
require the affirmative vote of all of the holders of the Founder Shares or of a majority of the Board (including the affirmative vote

necessary and reasonably requested by the Board in connection with such IPO, including unconditionally granting any and all consents or
approvals, participating in meeting, presentations, road shows, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions and sessions with lenders, investors
and rating agencies, and otherwise reasonably cooperating with the marketing efforts of the Company or any other Group Companies.
Upon the Board’s resolution to pursue
an IPO and advice of the managing underwriters of such IPO, if any provision of this Agreement is found to contravene the requirements
of the Applicable Laws, including any then applicable listing rules, regulations or guidance promulgated by the relevant stock exchange,
or to conflict with the good practice customarily adopted in the comparable market, or would otherwise have material adverse impact on
such IPO (including on the listing price thereof), the Parties shall discuss in good faith to terminate the relevant provisions, amend
and/or restate this Agreement to conform with the relevant rules, regulations, guidance or good practice customarily adopted.
If requested by the Board upon advice
of the managing underwriters of such IPO, each Shareholder agrees to execute customary lock-up agreements consistent with the foregoing
obligations and proportional to its then shareholding in the Company.
Oramed Pharma and the Company agree
that, from the completion of the JV Incorporation until the Initial Closing Date, except as (x) required by Applicable Law, or (y) as

and supplemented by this Agreement will survive for the applicable statute of limitations.
6.5.2 General.
Oramed shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify HTIT, together with the senior management, directors, employees thereof, as applicable
(the “HTIT Indemnified Persons”) from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Indemnifiable
Losses actually incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, any of them to the extent based upon, arising out of or in connection with
any breach of any of the representations, warranties, and undertakings of Oramed under Section 6.4 of the JVA (as amended above in this
Agreement). The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless HTIT Indemnified Persons, from and against any and all Indemnifiable
Losses of the HTIT Indemnified Persons relating to, arising out of or resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, with respect to all information contained in any of the Spin Off Disclosure Documents (including in any amendments
or supplements thereto), other than any such statement or omission in the Spin Off Disclosure Documents to the extent provided in writing
by HTIT and primarily concerning HTIT.
6.5.3 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, Oramed’s liability with respect to fraud and willful misconduct shall not be subject to any limit under this
Section 6.5.
6.5.4 If
an Indemnified Person receives notice of the assertion or commencement of an Action made, brought by or in conflict with any Person (“Claim”)
against such Indemnified Person that the Indemnified Person has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a
right of indemnification under this Section 6, the Indemnified Person shall provide Oramed with written notice of the Claim at the earliest
opportunity but in any event within seven (7) Business Days of receiving such Claim, indicating the nature of the Claim and the basis
therefor and including all related documents; provided that any failure to give such reasonably prompt written notice shall only relieve
Oramed of its indemnification obligations to the extent that Oramed actually forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Oramed
shall have the right, at its option, to participate in and/or assume the defense of, at its own cost and by its counsel, any such Claim
involving the asserted liability of the Indemnified Person; provided that Oramed shall not have the right to assume the defense of a Claim
if Oramed or its Affiliate is also a party to such Claim and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation
would render the defense of the Indemnified Person ineffective.
6.5.5 If
Oramed shall undertake to assume the defense of or settle any such asserted Claim, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Person of
its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Person shall agree to cooperate with Oramed and its counsel in the defense against, or settlement
of, any such asserted liability; provided, however, that Oramed shall not, as part of any settlement or other compromise, admit
to liability for which Oramed is not fully indemnifying the Indemnified Person or agree to an injunction with respect to activities of
any Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding an election by Oramed to assume the defense
of any Claim as set forth above, such Indemnified Person shall have the right (at its own cost if Oramed has elected to assume such defense)
to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of any Claim. All costs incurred by an Indemnified Person in connection with
enforcement of its rights under this Section 6.5 shall also be reimbursed by Oramed promptly after final determination that such Indemnified
Person is entitled to indemnification by Oramed.
6.5.6 Oramed’s
indemnification obligations in accordance with this Section 6.5 shall be the sole remedy for any breach of its obligations under Section
6.4.

before effecting and consummating the Spin Off. |
| 7.5.5 | Solvency and Surplus Tests. The boards of directors of Oramed Pharma and the Company shall be satisfied

as set forth under Section 5.4.2.4 (Completion of Asset Transfer) (other than the condition under Section 5.4.2.4(vi)) and Section 7.4A3
of the JVA being satisfied. Such efforts shall include taking the actions as specified in Section 7.5 of this Agreement properly on a
timely basis.
| 7.6 | The Parties acknowledge that the section numbers in Sections 7.5 and 7.6 of the JVA are different from

the listing and trading of the common stock of the Company on the Nasdaq Stock Market as soon as possible after the Initial Closing (in

| 9.3 | Between the date hereof and the Second Closing, Oramed and the Company shall and shall allow HTIT reasonable
access to the Company after having received sufficient prior notice by causing the Company to permit the HTIT, or any representative thereof,
to (a) visit and inspect the properties of the Company (including without limitation the Transferred Assets after the completion of the

requests (including, without limitation, the status of the Transferred Assets and the implementation of the IP Transfer Plan (each as
defined under the Oramed Asset Transfer Agreement)), in such a manner so as not to unreasonably interfere with their normal operations
and subject to specific arrangements for information which is highly commercially sensitive. Oramed and the Company shall notify HTIT

Closing, simultaneously to both HTIT and Oramed. |
| 10.1.2 | All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the common stock of the Company on The
Nasdaq Stock Market shall be borne by the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any costs and expenses incurred in connection with the

or objections shall have been provided to Oramed in writing prior to the Initial Closing, the disputed amounts shall be temporarily deducted

requirements of Applicable Laws. |
| 11.1 | In Section 11.4.2 of the JVA, the phrase “In connection with periodic reports to their shareholders
or partners” shall be replaced by the phrase “In connection with periodic or immediate reports to their shareholders or partners.” |

5.4.2, 5.4.3, and 5.4 of this Agreement. |
| 12.4 | The following Section 12.3A shall be added into the JVA: |
12.3A Without
derogating from the Parties’ rights under any Applicable Law, Section 5 of this Agreement with respect to the Second Closing may be terminated
by written notice of HTIT or Oramed to the other Parties at any time prior to the Second Closing, if the Second Closing shall not have
occurred by the date being 1 September 2025 or other later date agreed by HTIT and Oramed in writing (the “Second Closing Deadline”)
provided, however, that the right to terminate Section 5 of this Agreement with respect to the Second Closing under this Section 12.3A
shall not be available (i) to any Party whose action or failure to act has been a principal cause of or resulted in the failure of the
consummation of the Second Closing, as applicable, to occur on or before the Second Closing Deadline and such action or failure to act
constitutes a breach of this Agreement; (ii) to Oramed, if the failure to consummate the Second Closing is solely due to the failure to
satisfy the closing conditions set forth in Section 5.4.2.5 of this Agreement, or (iii) to any
Party, if the failure to consummate the Second Closing is solely due to the failure to satisfy HTIT’s closing condition under Section
5.4.2.8 of this Agreement.
| 12.5 | In the event of termination of Section 5 of this Agreement with respect to any Closing, except as expressly
provided herein, no Party shall have any claim hereunder against any other Party, save in respect of any claim arising out of any antecedent
breach under the Agreement giving rise to claims, actions, remedies or other causes for relief (including injunctive relief or specific
performance). |
| 13.1 | Without derogating from Section 1.1 above, Sections 11 (Confidentiality), 13 (Language), 14 (Governing
Law), 15 (Dispute Resolution), 16 (Notices), and 17 (Miscellaneous) shall apply to this Agreement. |
| 13.2 | If any obligation or other provision of the JVA and this Agreement is found to contravene the requirements
of the Applicable Laws, including any then applicable listing rules, regulations or guidance promulgated by the relevant stock exchange,
the Parties shall discuss in good faith to terminate or amend the relevant provisions, and/or to amend and/or restate the JVA and this
Agreement to conform with the relevant rules, regulations, or guidance. |
The Parties hereto acknowledge, agree
and confirm that, by the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to be a party to the JVA, as amended and supplemented
by this Agreement, and the Company shall have all of the rights and obligations of the “Company” thereunder, as the case may
be, as if it had executed the JVA. The Company hereby ratifies, as of the date hereof, and agrees to be bound by, all of the terms, provisions
and conditions contained in the JVA, as amended and supplemented by this Agreement.
| 15.1 | Schedule 1 of the JVA shall be replaced with Schedule 1 attached hereto. |
| 15.2 | Schedule 2 of the JVA shall be replaced with Schedule 2 attached hereto. |

is entered into as of [__] 2025 by and among:
| a. | Oramed NewCo, Inc., a limited liability company incorporated
and existing under the laws of Nevada with company registration number E41597362024-7 and its registered office at c/o Capitol Corporate

Each of the parties under the above items (a)
through (c) shall be referred to herein as a “Party” and together as the “Parties”.
| WHEREAS | the Company, HTIT Biotech, HTIT Sub, Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Oramed Ltd. entered into a Joint
Venture Agreement dated 22 January 2024 (“JVA”), as amended and supplemented by that certain Ancillary Agreement Completion

| WHEREAS | the Parties agree that HTIT Sub shall be granted the right to make additional investment in the Company
by subscribing for and purchasing additional Shares in the share capital of the Company, in accordance with the terms and conditions set
forth herein. |
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the

terms shall have the meaning specified: |
| 1.1. | “Exercise Amount” shall mean the investment
amount in U.S. dollars, indicated in the Option Exercise Notice. |
| 1.2. | “Exercise Period” shall mean the period
commencing on the Second Closing Date and expiring on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Second Closing Date. |

| 1.8. | “Option Holder” shall mean HTIT Sub or
any of its permitted assignee(s) or transferee(s) pursuant to Section 8.2 of this Agreement. |
| 1.9. | “Option Shares” shall mean any Shares
issued by the Company to Option Holder or any of its permitted assignee(s) or transferee(s) pursuant to this Agreement, in an amount
equal to the Exercise Amount divided by the applicable Exercise Price. For the avoidance of doubt, all Option Shares issued pursuant
to this Agreement, once issued, shall be considered Shares for all purposes under the JVA, and shall be held by Option Holder or any
of its permitted assignee(s) or transferee(s) in accordance with all applicable provisions of the JVA and this Agreement. |
| 1.10. | “Original Exercise Price” shall have the
meaning given in Section 3.3.1. |
| 1.11. | “Maximum Exercise Amount” shall be $20,000,000. |
| 1.12. | “Minimum Exercise Amount” shall be $5,000,000. |
| 2.1. | “Fully-diluted” or any variation thereof means
all of the issued and outstanding Shares, treating the maximum number of Shares issuable under any issued and outstanding securities
of the Company that are exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into any Equity Securities in the Company, and all Shares reserved
for issuance under any ESOP then in effect, as issued and outstanding. |
| 2.2. | “As-converted” or any variation thereof means
that the calculation should be made assuming that all the issued and outstanding preferred shares of the Company have been converted
into Shares. |
| 2.3. | interpretation set out under sections 1.2 and 1.3 of the
JVA shall apply to this Agreement. |
| 3.1. | Grant of Option. The Company hereby irrevocably
grants to Option Holder the right, exercisable at Option Holder’s sole discretion and at any time during the Exercise Period to
make additional investment in the Company by subscribing for and purchasing additional Shares in the share capital of the Company, at
the subscription price equal to the then applicable Exercise Price, and in an aggregate investment amount up to the Maximum Exercise
Amount on the terms and conditions set out hereunder (the “HTIT Option”). For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the HTIT Option shall not be revocable by the Company or any governing body thereof upon the issuance
thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. |
| 3.2. | Exercise of Options. Option Holder shall have
the right (not obligation) to exercise the HTIT Option at any time and from time to time during the Exercise Period, but in each event
in accordance with the following: |
| 3.2.1. | Option Holder may exercise the HTIT Option in one or more tranches during the Exercise
Period, provided that the investment amount that Option Holder makes to the Company in each tranche shall be no less than the Minimum
Exercise Amount, and in aggregate (together with all previous tranches of investment then already made by Option Holder through exercising
the HTIT Option) shall not exceed the Maximum Exercise Amount. |
| 3.2.2. | Option Holder may exercise the HTIT Option by sending to the Company a written notice
(the “Option Exercise Notice”) duly signed by Option Holder. An Option Exercise Notice shall specify (i) the Exercise
Amount that Option Holder commits to invest and (ii) the corresponding number of Option Shares (based on the then applicable Exercise
Price). An Option Exercise Notice duly delivered to the Company shall constitute a legally binding contract between the Company and Option
Holder for the issuance and purchase of the number of Option Shares specified in the Option Exercise Notice free from all Encumbrances
except for restrictions expressly set forth in this Agreement, the JVA and under the Company Constitution, and with all rights attached
thereto at the date of the applicable Option Closing. |
| 3.3.1. | The
subscription price payable by Option Holder to the Company for each Option Share (the “Exercise
Price”) shall be [$]1 per Option Share originally and immediately upon
the Second Closing under the Supplemental Agreement (the “Original Exercise Price”),
as adjusted solely pursuant to the adjustment provided under Section 3.3.2. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Original Exercise Price reflects a post-money valuation of the Company of $200,000,000
as of the Second Closing under the Supplemental Agreement and immediately prior to the first
time exercise of the HTIT Option and with respect to such first time exercise of the HTIT
Option, and the Maximum Exercise Amount shall be representing 10% of the total issued and
outstanding share capital of the Company prior to the Option Closing with respect to such
first time exercise of the HTIT Option assuming that the Company has not completed any equity
financing or any other transaction where any investment has been made to the Company after
the Second Closing under the JVA and before the Option Closing. For the avoidance of doubt,
in the event that the Company issues any additional Equity Securities, the shareholding percentage
in the Company of Option Holder with respect to the Option Shares will be diluted as if the
Option Shares had been issued at the Exercise Price on the Second Closing of the JVA. |
| 3.3.2. | If the Company shall at any time or from time to time
after the Second Closing Date and during the Exercise Period, implement any share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations
or similar transactions (the “Corporate Actions”), the Exercise Price shall be equitably and proportionally adjusted
so as to provide and preserve, without any disadvantage, the same economic benefit to Option Holder as if such Corporate Actions had not
taken place. The Company shall provide adequate notice to the Option Holder detailing the adjustment
methodology and resulting changes to the Exercise Price to the Option Holder within a reasonable time after execution of such Corporate
Actions, and in any event the Company shall notify the other Parties prior to Option Closing if any such adjustments were not accurately
reflected in the Option Exercise Notice. |
| 3.4.1. | Completion of the issuance of the Option Shares (the “Option Closing”)
to Option Holder pursuant to this Agreement shall occur within ten (10) days following the delivery of an Option Exercise Notice by Option
Holder (and if such date is not a Business Day, then on the first Business Day thereafter), at the offices of the Company, or at such
other time and place as may be agreed in writing by the Parties. |
| 3.4.2. | In the event that Option Holder exercises the HTIT Option in multiple tranches,
a separate Option Closing shall occur for each tranche. |
| 3.4.3. | Each Option Closing shall occur subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Company)
of the condition that each of the representations and warranties of Option Holder set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct
in all material respects at the relevant Option Closing as if made anew as of such time. |
1 | Equal to the per-share price calculated by dividing $200,000,000
by the total amount of shares of the Company immediately after the Second Closing on a fully-diluted basis. |
| 3.5. | Actions at Option Closing. At the Option Closing, the following transactions
shall occur, which transactions shall be deemed to take place simultaneously and no such transaction shall be deemed to have been completed
or any document delivered until all such transactions have been completed and all required documents delivered. |
| 3.5.1. | Company Deliverables. At the Option Closing, the Company shall: |
|
| 3.5.1.1. | allot and issue to Option Holder the Option Shares as fully paid up and free and clear of any Encumbrances (except as created by the
JVA or the Company Constitution); |
|
| 3.5.1.2. | deliver or procure the delivery to Option Holder of i) a copy of record of shareholders of the Company certified to be a true copy
by the company secretary, registered agent or the counterpart under the Applicable Law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company
reflecting that Option Holder as the owner of the Option Shares referred to in the relevant Option Exercise Notice as of the date of the
Option Closing, (ii) a share certificate duly completed in the name of Option Holder and reflecting its ownership of the Option Shares
referred to in the relevant Option Exercise Notice; |
|
| 3.5.1.3. | deliver or procure the delivery to Option Holder such other documents as may be necessary to effectuate the issuance of the Option
Shares referred to in the relevant Option Exercise Notice to Option Holder; and |
|
| 3.5.1.4. | deliver certified copies of the resolutions of the board of directors of the Company duly passed for approving the issuance of the
Option Shares by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. |
| 3.5.2. | Option Holder Deliverables. At the Option Closing, Option Holder shall: |
|
| 3.5.2.1. | deliver to the Company (i) to the extent required by Applicable Law, a duly executed
share application letter (or corresponding document in the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company) for the Option Shares referred
to in the relevant Option Exercise Notice duly executed by Option Holder; and (ii) such other Know Your Customer (KYC) information that
the Company Secretary may require to complete its internal compliance checks and satisfy any requirements of the Company’s bank. |
|
| 3.5.2.2. | to the extent Option Holder is not already a Shareholder, a joinder agreement in
the form agreed between HTIT and the Company, whereby Option Holder shall assume the rights and obligations in the capacity as a Shareholder
with respect to the Option Shares issued to it; and |
|
| 3.5.2.3. | deliver to the Company a certificate confirming the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Section 3.4.3 as of the Option Closing; and |
|
| 3.5.2.4. | pay or cause to be paid the applicable Exercise Amount to the Company by transfer
of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to such bank account of the Company, which shall be notified to Option Holder in writing
at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Option Closing. |
| 4. | Representations and Warranties. |
| 4.1. | Representations and Warranties of the Company and HTIT Sub. Each of
Option Holder and the Company makes the representations and warranties set out under section 6.1 of the JVA as applicable mutatis mutandis
(including disclosure of any updates to Schedule 1 to the JVA) to the other Parties as of the date of this Agreement and as of the date
of the applicable Option Closing. |
| 4.2. | Additional Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company
represents and warrants to Option Holder that each statement contained in this Section 4.2 is true and accurate as of the date of this
Agreement, and will be true and accurate as of the date of the applicable Option Closing (as though made then and as though the date of
the applicable Option Closing was substituted for the date of this Agreement throughout this Section 4.2). |
| 4.2.1. | The Company has the right to issue the Option Shares free from all Encumbrances
except for restrictions expressly set forth in the JVA and the Company Constitution and all the Option Shares are fully paid or credited
as fully paid subject to payment of the Exercise Amount by Option Holder. |
| 4.2.2. | The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution
and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized
by all necessary action on the part of the Company and no further action is required by the Company, its board of directors or the Company’s
shareholders in connection herewith. This Agreement has been duly executed by the Company and, when delivered in accordance with the terms
hereof, will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms,
except (i) as limited by general equitable principles and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws
of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability
of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and (iii) insofar as indemnification and contribution provisions
may be limited by applicable law. No registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)
is required for the offer and sale of the Option Shares by the Company to the Option Holder as contemplated hereby. The Company is relying
upon the exemption from the registration requirements of Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act and has met all requirements,
and taken all necessary actions, to make the issuance, sale and delivery of the Option Shares. The issuance and sale of the Option Shares
hereunder does not contravene the listing rules of the exchanges on which the securities of the Company are listed or designated, if applicable.
Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any person acting on its or their behalf has, directly
or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause
this offering of the Option Shares to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of (i) the Securities Act which would
require the registration of any such securities under the Securities Act, or (ii) any applicable shareholder approval provisions of the
listing rules of the exchanges on which the securities of the Company are listed or designated, if applicable. |
| 4.3. | Additional Representations and Warranties of Option Holder. Option
Holder represents and warrants to the other Parties that each statement contained in this Section 4.3 is true and accurate as of the date
of this Agreement, and will be true and accurate as of the date of the applicable Option Closing (as though made then and as though the
date of the applicable Option Closing was substituted for the date of this Agreement throughout this Section 4.3). |
| 4.3.1. | Purchase for Own Account. Option Holder will purchase the HTIT Option and
the Option Shares for its own account and not with a view to or in connection with the sale or distribution of such securities or any
part thereof. |
| 4.3.2. | Eligible Holder. Option Holder is an entity that on a fully-diluted and as-converted
basis, Mr. Gao Xiaoming, counting in all his direct and indirect shareholding in HTIT Sub and all Option Holders, through his Affiliates
and other related Persons (including his then shareholding in HTIT Biotech), will in aggregate be the largest ultimate beneficial owner
of equity interest in the aggregate of Shares held by HTIT Sub and all Option Holders. |
| 4.3.3. | No Additional Representations. Option Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees
that the Company does not make any representations or warranties to Option Holder, express or implied, other than the representations
and warranties set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2 above. Option Holder has not received or relied on any representations and warranties from
the other Parties in making its decision regarding the exercise of the HTIT Option. |
| 4.3.4. | Independent Investigation. Option Holder has undertaken independent investigation
and has been provided with and has evaluated such documents and information regarding the Company as it has deemed necessary to enable
it to make an informed and intelligent decision with respect to the exercise of the HTIT Option. |
| 5. | Further assurance. Each of the Parties agrees to perform (or procure the
performance of) all further acts and things, and execute and deliver (or procure the execution and delivery of) such further documents,
as may be required by Applicable Law or as Option Holder may reasonably require, whether on or after the applicable Option Closing, to
implement and/or give effect to the issuance of the Option Shares and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement including,
without limitation, convening of all meetings, giving all waivers and consents and the passing of all resolutions and shall do or procure
to be done all other acts and things as may be necessary under Applicable Law or under the Company Constitution or otherwise in relation
to the Company to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement and the exercise of the HTIT Option in accordance with the terms and
conditions hereunder. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that at all times there shall be reserved sufficient number of authorized
and unissued Option Shares for issuance and delivery upon exercise of the HTIT Option. The Company will take all such action as may be
necessary to assure that the HTIT Option and the Option Shares shall be issued as provided herein without violation of any Applicable
Law (including, without limitation, all applicable federal and state securities laws). |
| 6. | Confidentiality. The terms and conditions of this Agreement and any notices
exchanged in connection herewith, shall constitute Confidential Information under the JVA. |
| 7.1. | This Agreement shall become effective on the Second Closing Date, and shall remain
in effect until the earlier of (i) the third (3rd) anniversary of the Second Closing Date, and (ii) the termination of the JVA and the
Supplemental Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions thereunder. |
| 7.2. | In the event of the termination of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be of no
further effect, except for Section 6 and Section 8 each of which shall survive the termination of this Agreement. |
| 8.1 | Sections 13 (Language), 14 (Governing Law), 15 (Dispute Resolution), 16 (Notices) and 17 (Miscellaneous)
(other than sections 17.11 and 17.12) of the JVA shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement. With respect to Section 16 (Notices)
of the JVA, any notice to be delivered to any Party, shall be delivered to all Parties. |
| 8.2 | Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, this Agreement will inure
for the benefit of, and be binding upon the Parties, the respective successors in title and personal representatives of each Party. This
Agreement is personal to the Parties and the rights and obligations hereunder are not capable of assignment without mutual consent of
the Parties, except that Option Holder shall be entitled to assign and transfer at its sole discretion, the HTIT Option, at any time or
from time to time, during the Exercise Period, in whole or in part, to any Person, provided that (i) after such transfer, on a fully-diluted
and as-converted basis, Mr. Gao Xiaoming, counting in all his direct and indirect shareholding in HTIT Sub and all Option Holders (either
HTIT Sub or any assignee(s) or transferee(s)), through his Affiliates and other related Persons (including his then shareholding in HTIT
Biotech), will in aggregate be the largest ultimate beneficial owner of equity interest in the aggregate of Shares held by HTIT Sub and
all Option Holders, (ii) the assignor and assignee Option Holder shall deliver to the Company and to the other Parties, a written notice
of such assignment, including sufficient information on its holding structure to demonstrate compliance with the aforesaid limb (i),
and (iii) such assignment and transfer shall not be in violation of any Applicable Law and shall not have material adverse impact on an
IPO then approved by the Board for the Company to pursue in accordance with the JVA and the Company Constitution. Without derogating from
any other remedy, in the event of any assignment not in compliance with the foregoing provisions, such assignment shall have no effect,
Section 4.5 of the JVA shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Option Shares underlying such assignment. |
| 8.3 | This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct
or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto and Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Oramed”),
and otherwise as expressly set forth herein. |
| 8.4 | Except as otherwise provided explicitly hereunder, the terms of this Agreement are not intended to be
enforceable by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement and a Person who is not a party to this Agreement shall have no right under
the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 2001 of Singapore to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement, provided that Oramed is hereby
designated as a third party beneficiary under Section 8.3 of this Agreement. |

| 1.2.1 | Right to Piggyback on Registration. If the Company proposes to register any of its stock or other
securities under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering of such securities, the Company shall notify all Holders in
writing at least twenty (20) days prior to the filing of any registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of an offering
of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to the IPO or secondary offerings of securities
of the Company, but other than (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated
in the future, (ii) a registration relating solely to an SEC Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated
in the future, or (iii) a registration in which the only Shares being registered are Shares issuable upon conversion of debt securities
that are also being registered, and will afford each such Holder requesting to be included in such registration, in accordance with this
Section 1.2, an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or part of the Registrable Shares held by such
Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Shares held by it shall,
within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the above-described notice by the Company, so notify the Company in writing specifying the
number of Registrable Shares requested to be included. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Shares in any registration
statement thereafter filed by the Company, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include Registrable Shares in
any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities,
all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The number of occurrences of the registration pursuant to this Section 1.2
shall be unlimited. |
| 1.2.2 | Underwritten Offerings. If the registration statement with respect to which the Company gives notice
under this Section 1.2 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise the Holders as part of its notice made
pursuant to Section 1.2.1. In such event, the right of any such Holder to be included in a registration pursuant to this
Section 1.2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s
Registrable Shares in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Shares through
such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such
underwriting by the Company. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom
by written notice to the Company and the underwriter delivered at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration
statement. |
| 1.2.3 | Cut-back and Priority. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the underwriter
determines in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of Shares (including Registrable Shares) to be underwritten,
the number of Shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated, (i) first, to the Company and (ii) second, to the Holders
pro-rata, based on the total number of Registrable Shares the Holders have requested to be included in such registration. Any Registrable
Shares excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. The Company shall have the
right to terminate, delay or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 1.2 prior to the effectiveness of such
registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include Registrable Shares in such registration. |
| 1.3.1 | Right to Demand. Subject to the terms of this Section 1.3, at any time following a date that
is one hundred twenty (120) days after the Listing Date (as defined in the JVA), any Initiating Holder may request in writing that the
Company effect a registration for any or all of its Registrable Shares (each such request, a “Demand Registration”).
Within thirty (30) days of the delivery of such written request by an Initiating Holder, the Company shall give written notice of such
request to all Holders, who may elect to join in such request by delivering their own written request to the Company within fifteen (15)
days after delivery of the Company’s notice. Subject to the limitations of this Section 1.3, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect, as promptly as reasonably practicable, the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Shares
specified in the Initiating Holder’s request, together with the Registrable Shares of any Holder(s) joining in such request. |
| 1.3.2 | Cut-back and Priority. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 1.3,
if the underwriter for the offering advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Shares
to be underwritten, then the Company shall so advise all Holders which would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto and the number
of Registrable Shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such Registrable Shares so requesting
to be registered on a pro rata basis, based on the number of Registrable Shares requested by each such Holder to be included in the registration.
Any Registrable Shares excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration. The Company shall not register
securities for sale for its own account in any registration requested pursuant to this Section 1.3 unless the demand is
made pursuant to Section 1.3.1 or the Company is permitted to do so by the Initiating Holders. The Company may not cause any other
registration of securities for sale for its own account (other than a registration effected solely to register an employee benefit plan
on Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future) to be initiated after a registration requested pursuant to Section 1.3
and to become effective less than one hundred twenty (120) days after the effective date of any registration requested pursuant to Section 1.3. |
| 1.3.3 | Exceptions to Filing Obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required
to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 1.3 (i) after the Company has effected two (2) registrations for the
relevant Initiating Holder pursuant to this Section 1.3 and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective;
or (ii) if the Company furnishes to the Initiating Holder requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.3,
an officer’s certificate signed by the CEO (a “Delay Notice”) stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it
would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its Shareholders for such registration statement to be effected at such time, in which
event the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request
of the relevant Initiating Holder; provided, however, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company no more
than once in any twelve (12) month period. The Company shall not be obligated to maintain a registration statement pursuant to this Section
1.3 effective (i) if all of the Registrable Shares covered by such registration statement have been sold pursuant thereto,
(ii) such Registrable Shares have been previously sold in accordance with Rule 144, or (iii) such Registrable Shares become eligible for
resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without current public information pursuant to Rule 144 as set forth in a written
opinion letter to such effect, addressed, delivered and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Holders (assuming
that such securities and any securities issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of which, or as a dividend upon which, such securities
were issued or are issuable, were at no time held by any affiliate of the Company), as reasonably determined by the Company, upon the
advice of counsel to the Company. |
| 1.3.4 | Revocation. A registration request will not count as a Demand Registration pursuant to this Section
1.3 if (i) the Initiating Holder determines in its good faith judgment to withdraw the proposed registration of any Registrable
Shares requested to be registered by the Initiating Holder due to a material adverse change in the Company (other than as a result of
any action by the Initiating Holder); (ii) such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement
of the SEC or other governmental agency or court for any reason (other than as a result of any act by the Initiating Holder) and the Company
fails to have such stop order, injunction or other order or requirement removed, withdrawn or resolved to the Initiating Holder’s satisfaction;
(iii) the Initiating Holder requests that the Company withdraw the registration at any time during the period specified in a Delay Notice
or within ten (10) days thereafter; or (iv) the conditions to closing specified in any underwriting agreement or purchase agreement entered
into in connection with the registration relating to any such demand are not satisfied (other than as a result of a default or breach
thereunder by the Initiating Holder). |
| 1.4.1 | Filing. Subject to the conditions of this Section 1.4, at any time after the closing of the
Company’s IPO, if the Company receives a written request from any Initiating Holder that the Company file a registration statement for
an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time
to time of Registrable Shares (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) with the anticipated aggregate offering price from
the sale of such Registrable Shares sought to be included in such registration exceeding $3,000,000, then the Company shall, within thirty
(30) days of the delivery thereof, give written notice of such request to all Holders, who may elect to join in such request by delivering
their own written request to the Company within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Company’s notice. The Shelf Registration Statement
shall be on Form S-3 or another appropriate registration statement permitting registration of such Registrable Shares for resale by the
relevant Initiating Holder in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by it and set forth in such Shelf Registration Statement.
The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities
Act within three (3) months after the Initiating Holder’s request in accordance with this Section and to keep such Shelf Registration
Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earliest of (i) one year following the date such registration was
declared effective, (ii) the disposition of all Registrable Shares included in such Shelf Registration Statement and (iii) the date as
of which the relevant Initiating Holder is permitted to sell its Registrable Shares without registration pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act without volume limitations or other restrictions on transfer thereunder. |
| 1.4.2 | Exceptions to Obligation to File. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required
to effect a registration pursuant to this Section 1.4 (i) if Form S-3 or another appropriate registration statement permitting registration
of such Registrable Shares for resale by the relevant Initiating Holder in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by it is
not available for such offering by such Initiating Holder; (ii) if within ten (10) days of receipt of a written request from the Initiating
Holder pursuant to this Section 1.4, the Company gives notice to such Holder of the Company’s good faith intention to file a
registration statement for a public offering within ninety (90) days, provided, however, that the Company actually files
such registration statement within such ninety (90) days and makes reasonable good faith efforts to cause such registration statement
to become effective; (iii) if the Company furnishes to the Initiating Holder requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section
1.4 an officer’s a certificate signed by the CEO stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be seriously detrimental
to the Company and its Shareholders for such registration statement to be filed at such time, in which event the Company shall have the
right to defer such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holder, provided,
however, that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company not more than once in any twelve (12) month period;
(iv) if the Company has, within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two (2) registrations
on Form S-3 for the relevant Initiating Holder pursuant to this Section 1.4; (v) during the period starting with the date
sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s estimated date of filing of, and ending on the date six (6) months immediately following the effective
date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction
or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith reasonable efforts
to cause such registration statement to become effective and that the Company’s estimate of the date of filing such registration statement
is made in good faith; or (vi) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or
to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration. |
| 1.4.3 | Shelf Takedown. At any time during which the Company has an effective Shelf Registration Statement
in place with respect to Registrable Shares, the relevant Holders may make a written request to the Company to effect a public offering
of all or a portion of such Holders’ Registrable Shares that are covered by such Shelf Registration Statement, specifying the intended
method of disposition thereof, and as soon as reasonably practicable the Company shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement
for such purpose. |
| 1.4.4 | Shelf Suspension. If the continued use of such Shelf Registration Statement at any time would in
the good faith judgment of the Company require public disclosure of material non-public information, the Company may, upon giving written
notice of such action to the relevant Holders, suspend use of the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Suspension”);
provided that the Company shall not be permitted to exercise a Shelf Suspension (i) more than one (1) time during any twelve (12) month
period, or (ii) for a period exceeding sixty (60) days on any one occasion. Upon receipt of notice of a Shelf Suspension, the relevant
Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable
Shares. The Company shall promptly notify the relevant Holders upon the termination of any Shelf Suspension and shall, subject to clause
(ii) above in this paragraph, amend or supplement the prospectus, if necessary, so that it does not contain any untrue statement or omission
and furnish to the relevant Holders such number of copies of the prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the relevant Holders may
reasonably request. The Company agrees, if necessary, to supplement or make amendments to the Shelf Registration Statement, if required
by the registration form used by the Company for the Shelf Registration or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or
by the Securities Act or as may reasonably be requested by the relevant Holders. |
| 1.5 | Designation of Underwriter. |
| 1.5.1 | Holder-Initiated Registrations. In the case of any registration effected pursuant to Section 1.3
or 1.4, the Initiating Holder that submitted the request for registration shall have the right to designate the Managing Underwriter(s)
in any underwritten offering, subject to the Company’s approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
| 1.5.2 | Company-Initiated Registrations. In the case of any registration initiated by the Company, the
Company shall have the right to designate the Managing Underwriter(s) in any underwritten offering, subject to the Initiating Holder’s
approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
| 1.6 | Expenses. All registration expenses (other than Selling Expenses) incurred in connection with any
registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to Sections 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4 shall be borne by the
Company. Registration expenses shall include all expenses incurred by the Company or incidental to the Company’s performance of or compliance
with this Agreement, including, without limitation, expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of a prospectus, registration
and filing fees, printing fees and expenses, and fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants and other advisors for the Company; provided,
however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses relating to registration begun pursuant to Section 1.3.1
if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Initiating Holder (in circumstances other than those described
in Section 1.3.4), in which case the selling Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata based on their respective number of Registrable
Shares that were to be included in the withdrawn registration. All Selling Expenses relating to Registrable Shares registered pursuant
to this Section 1 shall be borne and paid by the selling Holders pro rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Shares registered
on their behalf. |
| 1.7 | Indemnities. In the event that any Registrable Shares are included in a registration statement
pursuant to this Agreement: |
| 1.7.1 | Indemnification by the Company. To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each Holder, the affiliates, partners, officers, directors and shareholders of each Holder, the legal counsel and
accountants for each Holder, and against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several), including reasonable
out-of-pocket counsel fees and disbursements, to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other
federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are
based upon any of the following (collectively a “Violation”) by the Company: (i) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final
prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or
alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation
promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such
registration statement; and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, and its affiliates, partners, officers, or directors and
each Person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, for any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a
third-party witness in connection with such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action or proceeding; provided, however, that
this indemnity shall not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations; provided further that
the indemnity with respect to any preliminary prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the Person asserting
such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the securities if it is determined that such loss, claim, damage or liability was
caused by such Holder’s failure to deliver to such Holder’s immediate purchaser a current copy of the prospectus (if the
current copy of the prospectus was required by applicable law to be so delivered) after the Company has timely furnished such Holder
with a sufficient number of copies of such prospectus; and provided, further that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 1.7.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if
such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, nor shall the
Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, cost or expense to the extent that it arises
out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for
use in connection with such registration by such Holder or by an affiliate, partner, officer, director, underwriter or controlling
Person of such Holder. |
| 1.7.2 | Indemnification by the Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, if
Registrable Shares held by such Holder are included in the securities as to which such registration qualifications or compliance is
being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each of its directors, each of its officers who has signed the
registration statement, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, legal counsel
and accountants of the Company, and any other Holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other
Holder’s its affiliates, partners, directors officers or any person who controls such Holder or within the meaning of the
Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses, to which the Company or any
such director, officer, controlling Person, underwriter or other such Holder or controlling Person of such other Holder may become
subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs or expenses (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by
such Holder under an instrument duly executed by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such
registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any Person intended to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 1.7.2 in
connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third-party witness in connection with
such loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding; provided, however, that this indemnity shall not be deemed to
relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence obligations; provided, further, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 1.7.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if
such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event shall
the liability of a Holder pursuant to this Section 1.7.2 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder, except in the case of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Holder. Each Holder’s obligation under
this Section 1.7.2 to indemnify shall be several, not joint or joint and several, among the Holders, and the liability of each
such Holder shall be in proportion to and limited to the net amount received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Shares
pursuant to such registration statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. |
| 1.7.3 | Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party pursuant
to the provisions of Section 1.7.1 or 1.7.2 herein of notice of the commencement of any action involving the subject
matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions, such indemnified party will, if a claim thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.7.1 or 1.7.2, promptly notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof
in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the omission to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which
it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than hereunder except to the extent that such indemnifying party is materially prejudiced
by the failure to give such notice and provided that any such failure shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any other liability
which it may have to any other party or to such indemnified party other than pursuant to this Section 1.7. In case such
action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party
shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified,
assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the
defendants in any action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and there is a conflict of interests which would
prevent counsel for the indemnifying party from also representing the indemnified party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the
right to select one separate counsel to participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. After
notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will
not be liable to such indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.7.1 or 1.7.2 for any legal or other
expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall
have employed counsel in accordance with the provision of the preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after the notice
of the commencement of the action and within fifteen (15) days after written notice of the indemnified party’s intention to employ separate
counsel pursuant to the previous sentence, or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel for the indemnified
party at the expense of the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement
which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release
from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation. |
| 1.7.4 | Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.7 is held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable
law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information concerning
the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, that
in no event shall any contribution by a Holder hereunder exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in
the case of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Holder; and provided, further, that no party will be liable for
contribution with respect to the settlement of any claim or action effected without its written consent. |
| 1.7.5 | Other Agreements. The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 1.7
shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. The
indemnification provisions of this Section 1.7 shall not be in limitation of any other indemnification provisions included in
any other agreement. To the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in any underwriting agreement entered
into in connection with an underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in such underwriting
agreement shall prevail. |
| 1.8 | Obligations of the Company. Whenever required under this Agreement to effect the registration of
any Registrable Shares, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable: |
| 1.8.1 | use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect
to such Registrable Shares and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and keep
such registration statement effective until the earlier of (i) four (4) months following the date such registration was declared effective
and (ii) the disposition of all Registrable Shares included in such registration statement, provided, however, that such four (4)
month period shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period the Holder refrains, at the request of an underwriter of Shares
(or other securities of the Company), from selling securities included in such registration; |
| 1.8.2 | use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus and prospectus supplements used in connection with such registration statement as may be
necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Shares covered by such
registration statement (including such information as the underwriter or the relevant Holder reasonably requests to be included in relation
to the plan of distribution); |
| 1.8.3 | furnish to the relevant Holders, without charge, such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents, as they may reasonably request in order
to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Shares owned by them; |
| 1.8.4 | in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting
agreement, in usual and customary form, with the Managing Underwriter of such offering (each Holder participating in such underwriting
shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement); |
| 1.8.5 | use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Shares registered pursuant to this Agreement
to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed; |
| 1.8.6 | provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant to this Agreement
and where applicable, a number assigned by the Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures for all such Registrable Shares,
in each case not later than the effective date of the relevant registration statement; |
| 1.8.7 | as promptly as practicable, notify each selling Holder of Registrable Shares covered by such registration
statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any
event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of
a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
in the light of the circumstances then existing, or if in the opinion of counsel for the Company it is necessary to supplement or amend
such prospectus to comply with law, and at the request of any such Holder, prepare and furnish to each such Holder a reasonable number
of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers
of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus shall not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing; |
| 1.8.8 | use commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration
statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the relevant Holders,
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or
to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction; |
| 1.8.9 | after the filing of a registration statement, (i) notify each Holder of Registrable Shares covered by
such registration statement of any stop order issued or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the SEC and of the receipt by the Company
of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Shares for sale under the applicable securities
or Blue Sky laws of any jurisdiction and (ii) take all commercially reasonable actions to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending
the effectiveness of the registration statement or the qualification of any Registrable Shares as promptly as reasonably practicable; |
| 1.8.10 | use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Shares are delivered
to the underwriters for sale if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or if such securities are not being sold through
underwriters on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated as of
such date, of the counsel representing the Company addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of
Registrable Shares, for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is reasonably satisfactory to the Managing Underwriter(s),
covering the matters customarily covered in opinions given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, and (ii) a letter, dated
as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants in an underwritten public offering addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting registration
of Registrable Shares; |
| 1.8.11 | in connection with the preparation and filing of each registration statement registering Registrable Shares
under the Securities Act and initiated under the provisions of Section 1.3 or 1.4, and before filing any such registration
statement or any other document in connection therewith, give the participating Holders and their underwriters, if any, and their respective
counsel and accountants, the opportunity to (i) review any such registration statement, and (ii) provide, at least one (1) day prior
to such filing, comments on such documents if necessary to cause the description of such Holders to be accurate; and |
| 1.8.12 | cause its employees to participate in “road shows” and other presentations as reasonably requested
by the underwriters, if any, in connection with such registration. |
| 1.9 | Assignment of Registration Rights. Each Holder may assign its rights to cause the Company to register
Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement (but only with all related obligations and together with the transfer of the Registrable
Shares to which such rights apply) to any transferee or assignee of all or part of the Registrable Shares held by such Holder; provided,
however, that (i) such transfer of Registrable Shares is made in accordance with the terms of the Company Constitution then in effect
and the JVA, (ii) the transferor shall furnish to the Company simultaneously with such transfer or assignment written notice stating the
name and address of such transferee or assignee and identifying the securities of the Company with respect to which such registration
rights are being assigned, and (iii) such transferee shall agree at such time to be subject to all provisions and restrictions set forth
in this Agreement. |
| 1.10 | Lock-Up. Each Holder agrees that, if so requested by the representative of the underwriters (the
“Managing Underwriter”), such Holder shall not, without the prior consent of the Managing Underwriter (i) lend,
offer to sell, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant
any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Registrable Shares or any other
securities of the Company (whether such Shares or any such securities are then owned by the Holder or are thereafter acquired), or (ii) enter
into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such
Registrable Shares or other securities of the Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled
by delivery of Registrable Shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, during the period specified by the Managing Underwriter
(the “Market Standoff Period”), with such period not to exceed ninety ( days following the effective date of such registration
statement, in each case, as may be extended in line with customary market practice, by up to a maximum of thirty four (34) days, to accommodate
regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions.
Any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions contained in any such agreement by the Company or the underwriter shall first
apply to the Holders, who shall have preference over all other holders of the Company’s securities to register and sell the Shares to
be registered within such waiver or termination of restrictions. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities
subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period. The foregoing provisions of this Section 1.10
shall not apply to the sale of any Shares to an underwriter pursuant to an underwriting agreement, and shall only be applicable to the
Holder if all officers and directors of the Company, and all Shareholders individually owning more than five percent (5%) of the Company’s
outstanding Shares, enter into similar agreements. The underwriters in connection with the Company’s IPO and subsequent offerings are
intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 1.10 and shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions
hereof as though they were a party hereto. In addition, at the underwriters’ request, each Holder shall enter into a lock-up agreement
in customary form reflecting the foregoing. |
| 1.11 | Public Information. With a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of certain rules
and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Shares to the public without registration, the Company (at any
time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements) agrees to: (i) make and keep publicly available and available to the
Holders adequate current public information with respect to the Company, within the meaning Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act or any
similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration statement
filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public; (ii) at any time following ninety (90) days after the effective
date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public by
the Company, furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request (A) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the informational
requirements of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act (or similar rule then in effect), and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has
become subject to such reporting requirements), (B) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and (C) such
other reports and documents as a Holder may reasonably request in order to avail itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing
it to sell any such securities without registration; and (iii) comply with all other necessary filings and other requirements so as to
enable the Holders to sell Registrable Shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or similar rule then in effect). |
| 1.12 | Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take
any action pursuant to this Section 1 with respect to the Registrable Shares of any selling Holder that such Holder shall furnish
to the Company such information regarding itself, the Registrable Shares held by it, and the intended method of disposition of such Shares
as is reasonably required to effect the registration of such Holder’s Registrable Shares. In connection with any offering involving an
underwriting of Shares, the Company shall not be required under this Agreement to include any of the Holders’ securities in such underwriting
unless they accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected pursuant to Section
1.5. |
| 1.13 | Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company
shall not, without the prior written consent of HTIT Sub and Oramed Pharma, enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder
of any securities of the Company giving such holder or prospective holder any registration rights the terms of which are senior to the
registration rights granted to the Holders hereunder. |
| 1.14 | Termination of the Company’s Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion, and the Company’s obligations in respect of any registration hereunder, including
its obligations to keep effective any registration statement, shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the
consummation of the IPO; and (ii) the date on which such Holder may sell all of its Registrable Shares in any ninety (90)-day period under
Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act, provided that if a longer period is provided to any Holder, such
longer period shall apply to all other Holders. In addition to the foregoing, the Company’s obligations under this Section 1
shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect with respect to otherwise Registrable Shares (A) sold by a person in a transaction
in which its rights under this Agreement are not properly assigned in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (B) if such otherwise
Registrable Shares have been registered under the Securities Act and sold by a person pursuant to such registration or they have been
sold pursuant to Rule 144. |
| 2. | Further Assurances. Each of the Parties hereto shall perform such further acts and execute such
further documents as may reasonably be necessary to carry out and give full effect to the provisions of this Agreement and the intentions
of the Parties as reflected thereby. |
| 3. | Confidentiality. The terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any notices exchanged in connection
herewith, shall constitute Confidential Information pursuant to the JVA. |
| 4. | Mutatis Mutandis. Sections 1.2 (Interpretation), 13 (Language), 14 (Governing Law), 15 (Dispute
Resolution), 16 (Notices) and 17 (Miscellaneous) of the JVA shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement. |

Agreement, contained in the Virtual Data Room, and/or provided through email or by other means by Oramed, are true and accurate in all

5. | Representations and Warranties of the Parties. Each
Party hereby represents and warrants to the other Party as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Asset Transfer Closing Date that
(i) such Party is a company duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation, such Party has the
full power and authority and has taken all actions required and obtained all corporate authorizations, Third Party consents, approvals,
and/or other authorizations and Governmental Approvals required to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder,
and (ii) the execution of this Agreement and the performance of obligations hereunder will not (a) violate the articles of association
or any other constitutional documents of such Party, (b) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under any agreement
or instrument by which such Party is bound or (c) violate any provision of Applicable Law or requirements of any stock exchange applicable
to such Party. |
| 6.1 | Survival of representations and warranties. The representations
and warranties of Oramed under Section 4 in this Agreement shall survive for a period of 36 months following the Initial Closing Date,
except that representations and warranties of Oramed under Sections 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.8 and 4.10 shall survive indefinitely. |
| 6.2 | General. Oramed (as one Party for the purpose of this
Section 6) shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify the Company, together with the senior management, directors, employees thereof,
as applicable, (the “Indemnified Persons”) from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and
all Indemnifiable Losses actually incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, any of them to the extent based upon, arising out of or
in connection with the following, subject to any limitations on liabilities set forth hereunder or otherwise available under other Transaction
Documents: |
| 6.2.1 | Any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Oramed contained in this
Agreement; |
| 6.2.2 | Any breach or non-fulfilment of Oramed in performing any covenant, undertaking,
agreement or obligation pursuant to this Agreement; |
| 6.2.3 | Any claims or Liabilities raised or imposed by any Third Party or Governmental Authority
in relation to the Company’s right, title and interest in and to any of the Transferred Assets, the Company’s ability to use,
commercialize or otherwise exploit the Transferred IP or obligations of payments or compensations in relation thereof, including without
limitation, any claim raised by Oramed’s current or former employees, Affiliates, independent contractors, agents, consultants,
service providers and their respective employees, all arising from Excluded Liabilities; |
| 6.2.4 | Any claim by any Third Party, other than HTIT and/or its Affiliates, that the Transferred
Assets, Transferred Business or Transferred Products infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate the Intellectual Property or other
rights of such Third Party, to the extent that such claim does not (i) directly relate to any technology, materials or manufacturing processes
that are developed and controlled by HTIT or its Affiliates; (ii) arise directly from the gross negligence, violation of law or willful
misconduct on the part of HTIT or its Affiliates under the HTIT Technology License Agreement; and (iii) arise due to any act or omission
of the Company; or |
| 6.2.5 | Any Excluded Liabilities, any Liabilities in relation to the Excluded Product and/or
otherwise retained by Oramed under this Agreement, and claims or Liabilities raised or imposed by IIA or any other Governmental Authority. |
| 6.3 | Procedure for indemnification of Claims. |
| 6.3.1 | If an Indemnified Person receives notice of the assertion or commencement of an Action made, brought by
or in conflict with any Person (“Claim”) against such Indemnified Person that the Indemnified Person has determined
has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Section 6, the Indemnified Person shall
provide Oramed with written notice of the Claim at the earliest opportunity but in any event within seven (7) Business Days of receiving
such Claim, indicating the nature of the Claim and the basis therefor and including all related documents; provided that any failure to
give such reasonably prompt written notice shall only relieve Oramed of its indemnification obligations to the extent that Oramed actually
forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Oramed shall have the right, at its option, to participate in and/or assume the
defense of, at its own cost and by its counsel, any such Claim involving the asserted liability of the Indemnified Person; provided that
Oramed shall not have the right to assume the defense of a Claim if Oramed or its Affiliate is also a party to such Claim and the Indemnified
Person determines in good faith that joint representation would render the defense of the Indemnified Person ineffective. |
| 6.3.2 | If Oramed shall undertake to assume the defense of or settle any such asserted Claim, it shall promptly
notify the Indemnified Person of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Person shall agree to cooperate with Oramed and its counsel
in the defense against, or settlement of, any such asserted liability; provided, however, that Oramed shall not, as part of any
settlement or other compromise, admit to liability for which Oramed is not fully indemnifying the Indemnified Person or agree to an injunction
with respect to activities of any Indemnified Person without the written consent of the Indemnified Person. Notwithstanding an election
by Oramed to assume the defense of any Claim as set forth above, such Indemnified Person shall have the right (at its own cost if Oramed
has elected to assume such defense) to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of any Claim. All costs incurred by an
Indemnified Person in connection with enforcement of its rights under Section 6.2 shall also be reimbursed by Oramed promptly after final
determination that such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification by Oramed. |
| 6.4 | Additional Indemnification Conditions. |
| 6.4.1 | Oramed’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to claims under Section 6.2.1 shall
apply to demands submitted in writing during the applicable survival periods set forth in Section 6.1. |
| 6.4.2 | Oramed’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to claims under Section 6.2.2 shall
apply to demands submitted in writing up to 36 months after the relevant covenant, undertaking, agreement or obligation becomes due according
to the relevant terms and conditions hereunder. |
| 6.4.3 | Oramed’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to claims under Sections 6.2.3, 6.2.4
and 6.2.5 shall apply to demands submitted in writing any time after Initial Closing but within 12 months after the relevant Indemnified
Person becomes aware or should have become aware of the relevant claim. |
| 6.4.4 | Oramed’s indemnification obligations with respect to all claims hereunder shall be capped in aggregate
at $30,000,000 (thirty million dollars), except for Oramed’s indemnification obligations under Sections 6.2.3, 6.2.4 and 6.2.5 which
shall not be subject to a cap. |
| 6.4.5 | The Indemnified Person shall not submit a demand for indemnification in connection with a certain claim,
unless the aggregate amount demanded in connection with such claim exceeds a minimum of $500,000, and in such event the entire demanded
amount shall be indemnifiable and Oramed’s indemnification obligations shall not be limited to the excess only. |
| 6.4.6 | For the avoidance of doubt, any Liabilities of Oramed which are waived or undertaken by another Party
pursuant to the Transaction Documents shall be excluded from the claims set forth in Section 6.2. |
| 6.4.7 | Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Oramed’s liability with respect to fraud and willful misconduct
shall not be subject to any limit under this Section 6. |
| 6.4.8 | Oramed’s indemnification obligations in accordance with this Section 6 shall be the sole remedy
for any breach of its representations, warranties, and undertakings under this Agreement. |
| 7.1 | IIA Approval. Oramed shall promptly initiate the application
to the IIA for the IIA Approval no later than five (5) Business Days after the signing of this Agreement and use its best efforts to

| 7.3 | Further disclosure of Transferred Assets. Oramed confirms
that it has uploaded to the Virtual Data Room copies of all documents and materials in relation to the Transferred Assets in its possession
or under its control as of the Effective Date, and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to the review and use of such documents

the properties, specifications, quantities, yields, packaging information of the Cell Banks, production, testing methods and other development
and manufacturing information of rBBI and recombinant human leptin) to allow the Company to conduct verification on the Cell Banks and

Governmental Authorities to register the title transfer of each Business Registered IP from the relevant Oramed entity to the Company

if any. All costs and expenses incurred with respect to the registration of title transfer for the Business Registered IP (including
any filing fees, costs, and expenses of recordals and applications, notary and legalization costs and professional fees relating to the
services of the IP Agent) shall be for the account of Oramed. |
| 7.6 | Regulatory file transfers. Within 30 Business Days
after the Initial Closing Date and in any event before the Second Closing Date, Oramed shall apply to the FDA and other relevant Governmental
Authorities requesting the transfer to the Company of the relevant regulatory files related to the US Phase 3 Trial and any other clinical
trial applications for oral insulin or other Transferred Products in Europe, Israel or any other jurisdiction of the world, including
requests to register the Company as the applicant or holder of the IND and any other similar applications in connection therewith. The
Company will cooperate with Oramed in connection with all such matters and shall assume the reasonable external costs relating to the

to the US Phase 3 Trial and the registration of the Company as the applicant or holder of the IND related to the US Phase 3 Trial filed

perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, freely transferrable and sublicensable license to use the Business Registered IP for any purpose.
Such license shall come to effect from the Asset Transfer Closing Date until the date on which the recordal of transfer of ownership of
the Business Registered IP to the Company is approved by the relevant Governmental Authority and duly registered and completed. |

IP in trust for the benefit of and registered in its name as nominee for the Company and Oramed shall act as a trustee and shall not transfer,
assign, or otherwise dispose of such Business Registered IP without the prior written consent of the Company. |

conduct of the Transferred Business and the Company cannot enter into direct agreements with the parties thereto, the Company shall provide

Company or to procure the entry of agreements between the Company and the parties thereto. |

to the production, supply, research and development, clinical matters, regulatory matters or registration of any products, ingredients,
excipients or other materials in the JV Business, or any other aspect of the JV Business; and (ii) procuring appropriate further license(s)
from Entera to the Company under the Entera Patent and all derivatives, modifications, enhancements and improvements thereto outside

the preparation, filing, prosecution, maintenance, and enforcement of the Transferred Assets. Oramed shall not, and shall ensure that
all of their respective Affiliates shall not, institute or actively participate as an adverse party in, or otherwise provide material
support to, any challenge of any Business Registered IP, including without limitation, contest the validity or enforceability of such
Business Registered IP, in whole or in part, in any court, arbitration proceeding or tribunal, including the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United States International Trade Commission. |
| 9.11 | Prior to or subsequent to the Initial Closing, in the event
that the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) requests or requires information and/or a filing
under the DPA with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate
in providing such information or filings to CFIUS in order to address CFIUS’s requests or to obtain CFIUS clearance, as applicable. |
10. | License Option. After the Asset Transfer Closing,
in the event that either HTIT or Oramed is interested in engaging in an Indication (as defined below) to the extent the Company does
not have an active plan to pursue by exploiting some or all of the Transferred Assets, HTIT or Oramed may provide the Company with a
written notice of such interest. The Company may, based on its development and commercialization strategies and in its sole discretion,
decide whether to grant HTIT or Oramed, as applicable, a license to the Transferred Assets as needed for the Indication, which may be
subject to a running royalty and other terms and conditions to be discussed in good faith by the parties to the license arrangement.
As used herein, “Indication” means the development and/or commercialization of a medical treatment. |
11. | Specific Performance. The Parties agree that damages
will not be an adequate remedy if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly,
that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, in arbitration or in court to prevent breaches of this Agreement
or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including Oramed’s obligations under Section 4 and/or
Section 7.5 of this Agreement), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In addition, each of
the Parties hereby further waives, to the extent not prohibited by law, (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a
remedy at law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable
relief. |
12. | Miscellaneous. This Agreement together with its Schedules,
Appendices, exhibits, and referenced documents and any Ancillary Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties regarding
the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all other agreements between the Parties regarding the subject matter hereof. In the
event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any referenced document and Ancillary Documents, the terms
of this Agreement shall govern, unless expressly stated otherwise in any such ancillary agreement. Except as expressly set forth herein,
this Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing executed by all Parties. If any part of this Agreement shall be invalid
or unenforceable, such part shall be interpreted to give the maximum force possible to such terms as possible under Applicable Law, and
such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other part or provision of this Agreement.

Permitted Subcontractors to lose the same rights under any sublicense or subcontract. The Supplier shall be responsible and liable for
any breach of the terms of this Agreement by the third parties engaged by it as if the Supplier had committed any such breach directly. |

The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated as provided in this Section 9, shall continue

(a) This
Agreement may be terminated by written notice of any Party at any time if the Joint Venture Agreement is duly terminated.

the event that the Licensee commits a material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure that breach within 60
days after receiving written notice thereof from the Licensor, the Licensor may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice
to the other Parties. In the event that the Licensor commits a material breach of its obligations under this Agreement and fails to cure
that breach within 60 days after receiving written notice thereof from the Licensee, the Licensee may terminate this Agreement immediately

including transferring or amending, as appropriate, upon request of the Licensor any agreements or arrangements with Third Parties in
relation to the Licensed Product in the Territory; to the extent that any such contract between the Licensee with Third Parties is not
assignable to the Licensor, the Licensee shall arrange a transition period in which to provide such services with the goal of promptly
transitioning the arrangement to the Licensor; provided, however, that, for each Sublicensee, upon termination of the Sublicense agreement
with such Sublicensee, the Licensor may, at the request of such Sublicensee, decide in its sole discretion to enter into a new license
agreement with such Sublicensee.
(b) Accruing

Novation
Agreement and Release
This
Novation Agreement and Release (this “Agreement”), is made effective as of February 7, 2025 (the “Effective
Date”), by and among Hefei Tianhui Biotech Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Hefei Tianhui Incubator of Technologies Co.,
Ltd.), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and
having its principal place of business at No. 199 Fanhua Road, Heifei, Anhui, China (“HTIT”), of the first part, and
Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc., a corporation incorporated and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware, the U.S., with company
number 4951722 and having its primary business address at 1185 Avenue of the Americas, Third Floor, New York, NY, USA (“Oramed
Pharma”) and Oramed Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and having its principal place of
business at 2/4 Hi-Tech Park, PO Box 39098, Jerusalem, 91390, Israel (together with Oramed Pharma, collectively referred to as “Oramed”),
of the second part, and Oramed NewCo, Inc., a company incorporated and existing under the laws of the State of Nevada with Nevada
Business Identification number NV20243151449 and its registered office at 716 N. Carson St. #B, Carson City, NV 89701 (c/o Capitol Corporate
Services, Inc.) (“Assignee”). HTIT and Oramed are herein each referred to as a “TLA Party” and collectively
referred to as the “TLA Parties”, and HTIT, Oramed and Assignee are herein referred to collectively as the “Parties”.
Whereas,
the TLA Parties are parties to a certain Amended and Restated Technology License Agreement dated December 21, 2015, as subsequently amended
by an agreement dated June 3, 2016 among the TLA Parties and an agreement dated July 24, 2016 among the TLA Parties, (collectively referred
to as the “TLA”);
Whereas,
prior to the Effective Date, each of the TLA Parties has raised certain claims against the other TLA Party under the TLA and made demands
of the other in connection with the TLA and the other TLA Party’s obligations thereunder;
Whereas,
each of the TLA Parties desires to irrevocably release and waive all such claims and demands against the other TLA Party as an integral
part of and in connection with the transactions contemplated under the JVA (defined below);
Whereas,
the Parties and certain other parties entered into a joint venture agreement on January 22, 2024 (the “JVA”), as amended
and supplemented by that certain Ancillary Agreement Completion Protocol and Supplemental Agreement dated as of February 7, 2025 (the “Supplemental Agreement”), concerning the establishment, shareholding and governance of a joint
venture entity, referred to herein as Assignee, and the Parties and certain other parties desire to enter into an Asset Transfer Agreement
(the “ATA”) pursuant to which Oramed shall transfer and assign certain intellectual property rights and business contracts,
including the Oramed Technology (as defined under the TLA) and certain other technologies and assets that are the subject of the TLA and
licensed to HTIT pursuant to the TLA, to Assignee;
Whereas,
the Parties desire that the TLA and all rights, obligations and liabilities set out therein and arising with respect to the performance
thereof, if not released, be amended, supplemented, assigned, transferred and novated so that the TLA will become an agreement by and
between HTIT and Assignee;
Now, therefore,
in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and in the JVA and for other good and valuable consideration, the Parties agree
to novate the TLA subject to the terms and conditions contained herein as follows:
1. Release. In
connection with the transactions contemplated under the JVA, each of the TLA Parties hereby irrevocably releases and discharges the
other TLA Party, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, successors, and assigns, from any and all claims and
demands of any kind (other than claims for fraud), in any jurisdiction, whether or not presently known to the TLA Parties, which
such party ever had, may have or hereafter can, shall or may have, arising out of or relating to the TLA (each a
“Claim”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the aforesaid release applies to Claims made (i) by
Oramed against HTIT for, inter alia, non-payment of milestone amounts and other amounts due under Sections 8.2 and 8.5 of the
TLA, and non-provision of documents and information contemplated under the TLA; and (ii) by HTIT against Oramed for, inter
alia, the production of batches of oral insulin capsules, the failure to return any amounts or non-payment of other amounts
under Exhibit F2 and Exhibit F3 referenced in Section 8.2 of the TLA and non-provision of documents, know-how and other information
contemplated under the TLA. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is expressly agreed
that the foregoing release shall also apply to the benefit of the Assignee, and as such neither TLA Party shall have any Claim
against the Assignee.
2. Novation. The
Parties agree to novate the TLA with respect to parties thereto, so that, from and as of the Asset Transfer Closing Date as defined
in the Supplemental Agreement (the “Asset Transfer Closing Date”), with respect to all rights, obligations, or
liabilities of any kind whatsoever accruing or arising under the TLA: (i) Oramed shall transfer all its rights, obligations and
liabilities under the TLA to the Assignee and cease, for all purposes, to be a party to the TLA and Assignee replaces Oramed under
the TLA for any and all purposes and to the full exclusion of Oramed as a party to the TLA; and (ii) each reference in the TLA to
Oramed shall and will henceforth be read as a reference to Assignee alone and Assignee shall become a party to the TLA as if it were
the original party in place of Oramed.

oral drug delivery platforms, today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements to spin off its Protein Oral Delivery (POD™)
technology into a newly formed joint venture, OraTech Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“OraTech”), with Hefei Tianhui Biotech Co., Ltd.
(“HTIT”). This transaction is designed to accelerate the development and commercialization of Oramed’s ORMD-0801 oral
insulin and other POD™-based innovative oral drug delivery technologies, reinforcing Oramed’s vision of revolutionizing diabetes
and chronic disease treatments.
As part of the transaction, Oramed will transfer
its proprietary oral insulin and POD™ technology, along with other pipeline assets, into OraTech. The definitive agreements call
for Oramed shareholders to receive a majority of Oramed’s equity interest in the new entity, allowing them to directly participate
in its future success. Additionally, under the agreements, Oramed and HTIT will contribute a combined $75 million in capital, some of
which will be allocated for services rendered via a supply agreement. This financial backing will provide substantial resources to drive
development, commercialization, and clinical advancement.
“We are excited to launch OraTech, a company
that brings together Oramed’s technology and clinical development expertise with HTIT’s state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities,”
said Nadav Kidron, Chief Executive Officer of Oramed. “OraTech will be singularly focused on bringing oral insulin to market and
unlocking the broader potential of oral drug delivery for additional therapeutic targets. With strong capital investment, an experienced
leadership team, and world-class manufacturing support from HTIT, the company is uniquely positioned to advance its programs, including
the planned reinitiation of a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in the United States.”
OraTech will leverage HTIT’s expertise in
capsule production and cost-efficient manufacturing, ensuring a robust, reliable, and scalable supply chain to support clinical trials
and commercialization efforts.
With a clear focus on development and commercialization,
strong financial backing, and a pipeline poised for clinical and regulatory advancements, OraTech is potentially set to redefine diabetes
care and transform the future of oral biologics and chronic disease management.
Further details on Oramed’s plans and initiatives
will be provided in a shareholder letter in the coming weeks.
