Neither we nor the selling stockholders have authorized anyone to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. This prospectus and any prospectus supplement does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, the common stock offered by this prospectus and any prospectus supplement in any jurisdiction to or from any person to whom or from whom it is unlawful to make such offer or solicitation of an offer in such jurisdiction. You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or any document incorporated by reference is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front cover of the applicable document.
Neither the delivery of this prospectus nor any distribution of common stock pursuant to this prospectus shall, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the information set forth or incorporated by reference into this prospectus or in our affairs since the date of this prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since such date.

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus may offer from time to time up to 3,518,091 shares of our common stock and 2,063,744 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants and options. This prospectus describes the general manner in which the shares may be offered and sold by the selling stockholders. If necessary, the specific manner in which the shares may be offered and sold will be described in a supplement to this prospectus, which supplement may also add, update or change any of the information contained in this prospectus. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement, provided that if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.
This summary highlights information contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus, and our other filings with the SEC, including those filings incorporated herein by reference, carefully, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
We are a pharmaceutical company currently engaged in the research and development of innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules or pills for delivery of other polypeptides.
Oral Insulin: We are seeking to revolutionize the treatment of diabetes through our proprietary flagship product, an orally ingestible insulin capsule (ORMD0801). Our technology allows insulin to travel from the gastrointestinal tract via the portal vein to the bloodstream, revolutionizing the manner in which insulin is delivered. It enables its passage in a more physiological manner than current delivery methods of insulin. Our technology is a platform that has the potential to deliver medications and vaccines orally that today can only be delivered via injection.
GLP-1 Analog: Our second pipeline product is an orally ingestible exenatide (GLP-1 analog) capsule, which aids in the balance of blood-sugar levels and decreases appetite. Glucagon-like peptide-1, or GLP-1, is an incretin hormone - a type of gastrointestinal hormone that stimulates the secretion of insulin from the pancreas. The incretin concept was hypothesized when it was noted that glucose ingested by mouth (oral) stimulated two to three times more insulin release than the same amount of glucose administered intravenously. In addition to stimulating insulin release, GLP-1 was found to suppress glucagon release (hormone involved in regulation of glucose) from the pancreas, slow gastric emptying to reduce the rate of absorption of nutrients into the blood stream, and increase satiety. Other important beneficial attributes of GLP-1 are its effects of increasing the number of beta cells (cells that manufacture and release insulin) in the pancreas and, possibly, protection of the heart.
Combination of Oral Insulin and GLP-1 Analog: Our third pipeline product is a combination of our two primary products, oral insulin and oral exenatide. Preliminary results of this trial were announced in June 2012. The results showed that our two main products have greater positive effects when given together, as a combination therapy, above the administration of each product alone.

An investment in our common stock involves significant risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors contained in any prospectus supplement and in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2012, as well as all of the information contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, before you decide to invest in our common stock. Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of such risks. The value of our common stock could decline as a result of any of these risks. You could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. Some of our statements in sections entitled “Risk Factors” are forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws, regarding our business, clinical trials, financial condition, expenditures, results of operations and prospects. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “planned expenditures,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not deemed to represent an all-inclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements as denoted in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference. Additionally, statements concerning future matters are forward-looking statements.
Although forward-looking statements in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors known by us as of such date. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in or anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, without limitation, those specifically addressed under the heading “Risk Factors” herein and in the documents we incorporate by reference, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or the respective documents incorporated by reference, as applicable. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of such forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made throughout the entirety of this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference, which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered for sale by the selling stockholders. However, we may receive up to approximately $8,945,000 in proceeds upon exercise of the warrants and options held by the selling stockholders, as the warrants and options have a weighted average exercise price of $4.33 per share and are exercisable into 2,063,744 shares of our common stock. None of the selling stockholders have presently advised us of their intention to exercise any warrants or options at this time. All potential proceeds will be used for the research and development of our products and for general working capital purposes. We will incur all costs associated with the preparation and filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Brokerage fees, commissions and similar expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares offered hereby will be borne by the applicable selling stockholders.

On August 8, 2012, our Board of Directors resolved to extend the term of Dr. Kidron’s warrant until August 6, 2014. We are also including for resale pursuant to this prospectus 270,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options held by Dr. Kidron. The warrant and options have a weighted average exercise price of $2.09 per share and may be exercised within 60 days of August 7, 2013. The latest expiration date of the options is August 8, 2022.
In March 2011, we completed a private placement with certain selling stockholders pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 873,961 “units” at a purchase price of $3.84 per unit for total consideration of $3,356,000. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. We also issued 16,397 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 5,906 shares of our common stock as finders’ fees in connection with the private placement. These amounts include the sale to D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd., or D.N.A, an Israeli company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, of 65,105 shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase up to 22,787 shares of our common stock, for a total purchase price of $250,000 in cash.
In April 2011, we completed a private placement with certain selling stockholders pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 93,701 “units” at a purchase price of $3.84 per unit for total consideration of $359,800. Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share.
In July 2011, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,622 shares of our common stock as finder’s fees to Yoav Ko Consultings Ltd. and R.

Between August and November 2012, we completed private placements pursuant to which we sold to certain selling stockholders an aggregate of 1,137,336 “units” at a purchase price of $4.44 per unit for total consideration of $5,049,710. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.50 of a share of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. We paid cash compensation of $84,135 as a finder’s fee.

Most of the selling stockholders were granted customary registration rights with respect to resales of shares, including the shares underlying the warrants. Regals Fund LP, or Regals, participated in such private placements and received certain special rights, including preemptive rights as long as they hold at least 5% of our outstanding common stock. With respect to Regals’ participation in the August 2012 private placement, we undertook to file a registration statement to register their shares and the shares underlying their warrants, by December 27, 2012. Since such registration statement was not timely filed, we may be required to pay liquidated damages of $10,000 or, at Regals’ discretion, 27,027 shares of common stock. Such liquidated damages may increase if we do not meet the Effectiveness Deadline as defined in Regals’ agreement. The liquidated damages may not exceed, in the aggregate, $100,000. Regals has not notified us that they plan to request such payment, and such damages may be waived by Regals.

In November 2012, we entered into a letter agreement, or the Agreement, with Regals in connection with (1) the warrant originally issued in January 2011, as amended in August 2012 and November 2012, to purchase up to 290,459 shares of our common stock, (2) the warrant dated August 28, 2012, to purchase up to 112,613 shares of our common stock and (3) the warrant dated November 5, 2012, to purchase up to 16,892 shares of our common stock , or together, the Warrants. Pursuant to the Agreement, we and Regals agreed to amend the Warrants to provide that the anti-dilution protection of the Warrants shall be deleted in its entirety. In addition, as to the warrants issued in August and November 2012, the parties agreed to reduce the exercise price to $3.7656 per share, the current exercise price per share of the warrants originally issued in January 2011. At such time, we also issued to Regals a warrant pursuant to which Regals shall have the right to purchase up to 137,311 shares of our common stock over a period of four years at an exercise price of $7.20 per share.
Between March 2012 and August 2013, we issued an aggregate of 25,001 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 62,500 shares of our common stock to Meyers Associates as compensation for advisory services provided to the Company. We are including for resale in this prospectus the 62,500 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of this warrant.

The options have a weighted average exercise price of $4.25 per share and may be exercised within 60 days of August 7, 2013. The latest expiration date of the options is August 8, 2022.
The following table sets forth, for each selling stockholder, the name, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned as of August 6, 2013 (directly and indirectly via warrants or options), the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus and the number of shares of common stock that would be beneficially owned after the sale of the maximum number of shares of common stock.
Other than the relationships described herein, to our knowledge, none of the selling stockholders are employees or suppliers of ours or our affiliates. Within the past three years, other than the relationships described herein, none of the selling stockholders has held a position as an officer or director of ours, nor has any selling stockholder had any material relationship of any kind with us or any of our affiliates, except that certain selling stockholders acquired shares of our common stock and warrants pursuant to the transactions described above.

(1) Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock subject to options or warrants currently exercisable, or exercisable within 60 days of August 7, 2013, are counted as outstanding for computing the percentage of the selling stockholder holding such options or warrants but are not counted as outstanding for computing the percentage of any other selling stockholder.
(2) Assumes all of the shares of common stock offered (including shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants or options) are sold. Percentage ownership is based on 7,937,872 shares of common stock issued and outstanding on August 7, 2013.
(3) Mr. Leonard Sank is one of our directors. Mr. Sank may be deemed to beneficially own the shares (including the warrant shares) held by his wife, Mrs. Dorothy Sank, set forth opposite her name. Mr. Sank also may be deemed to beneficially own the shares set forth opposite the name of Samson Property Investments, which is wholly owned by a trust of which Mr. Sank serves as a trustee. Mr. Sank disclaims beneficial ownership of all such securities. These securities are held of record by Hargreave Hale Nominees Limited on behalf of Mr. Sank, except for 47,673 shares held of record by Mr. Sank.
(4) These shares are held of record by Apollo Nominees Inc. on behalf of David Bloch and Michael Pimstein.
(5) Mr. Nadav Kidron is our President, Chief Executive Officer and one of our directors. He is the son of Dr. Miriam Kidron, our Chief Medical and Technology Officer and one of our directors.
(6) The amount of shares beneficially owned by Mr. Bronfeld does not include the warrant to purchase 22,787 shares of common stock held by D.N.A. Mr. Bronfeld and Mr. Meni Mor are parties to a voting agreement relating to their joint holdings in D.N.A, which as of December 27, 2012, represented approximately 39.6% of D.N.A’s outstanding share capital on an actual basis, as reported by D.N.A to the Israeli Securities Authority. As a result, Mr. Bronfeld may be deemed a beneficial owner of, and to share the power to vote and dispose of our securities held by D.N.A. Mr. Bronfeld has disclaimed beneficial ownership of any of our securities held by D.N.A. Immediately prior to the October 2012 issuance of shares to D.N.A, Mr. Bronfeld beneficially owned 7.1% of our shares common stock. The foregoing is based, in part, on a Schedule 13G/A filed by Mr. Bronfeld on February 5, 2013. In addition, as of August 7, 2013, we hold approximately 11.1% of D.N.A’s outstanding ordinary shares.
(7) Regals Capital Management LP is the investment manager of Regals Fund LP, the owner of record of these shares of common stock. Mr. David M. Slager is the managing member of the general partner of Regals Capital Management LP. All investment decisions are made by Mr. Slager, and thus the power to vote or direct the votes of these shares of common stock, as well as the power to dispose or direct the disposition of such shares of common stock is held by Mr. Slager through Regals Capital Management LP. The forgoing is based on a Schedule 13G/A which was filed February 12, 2013 jointly by Regals Fund LP, Regals Capital Management LP and Mr. Slager.

|
|
·
|

|
|
·
|
through agents; or
|
|
·
|

|

|
|
·
|
ordinary brokerage transactions; or
|
|
·
|

|
The selling stockholders have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of the Securities covered by this prospectus. At any time a particular offer of the Securities covered by this prospectus is made, a revised prospectus or prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of Securities covered by this prospectus being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers, brokers or agents.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
|
Delaware law generally permits us to indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. With respect to actions by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit is brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court shall deem proper. To the extent that a former or present director or officer is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit, or proceeding subject to the Delaware corporate statute’s indemnification provisions, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.
Delaware law provides that expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. A Delaware corporation has the discretion to decide whether or not to advance expenses, unless provided otherwise in its certificate of incorporation or by-laws.
Our Amended and Restated By-laws provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized under Delaware law, and that we will advance expenses to any officer or director in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by us.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company under Delaware law or otherwise, the Company has been advised that the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, is that such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
We entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers pursuant to which we agreed to indemnify each director and officer for any liability he or she may incur by reason of the fact that he or she serves as our director or officer, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
We maintain standard policies of insurance that provide coverage to our directors and officers against loss rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act.

UNDERTAKINGS.
|
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(A) (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
II-2
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
(B) That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
