ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

 

On September 3, 2015, Oramed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”), agreed to extend for 45 days the no-shop period contained in the non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) that was signed with Sinopharm Capital Management Co. Ltd. and Hefei Life Science & Technology Park Investments and Development Co., Ltd. (together, “Sinopharm-HLST”) on July 3, 2015. The 45 day extension is intended to allow sufficient time for the parties to conclude the definitive agreements.

 

Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains statements which constitute forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. These forward looking statements are based upon the Company’s present intent, beliefs or expectations, but forward looking statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur for various reasons, including some reasons which are beyond the Company’s control. For example, this Report states that the 45 days extension of the LOI with Sinopharm-HLST is intended to allow sufficient time for the conclusion of definitive agreements between the parties. However, the LOI is non-binding and subject to negotiation; accordingly, the conclusion of definitive documentation may be delayed or may not occur. For these reasons, among others, you should not place undue reliance upon the Company’s forward looking statements. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes 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 this Report.
