PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE ORGENESIS INC.

2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 16, 2021

This proxy statement, along with the accompanying notice of 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, contains information about the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders of Orgenesis Inc., including any adjournments or postponements of the annual meeting. This year’s annual meeting will be held via live audio webcast on the internet. You will be able to participate, vote and submit your questions during the annual meeting by visiting www.issuerdirect.com/virtual-event/orgs. You will not be able to attend the annual meeting physically.

In this proxy statement, we refer to Orgenesis Inc. as “Orgenesis,” “the Company,” “we” and “us.”

This proxy statement relates to the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors for use at the annual meeting.

On or about October 20, 2021, we intend to begin sending to our stockholders the Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access our proxy statement for our 2021 annual meeting of stockholders and our 2020 annual report to stockholders.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE

STOCKHOLDER MEETING TO BE HELD ON DECEMBER 16, 2021

This proxy statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our form of proxy card and our 2020 annual report to stockholders are available for viewing, printing and downloading at www.iproxydirect.com/ORGS. To view these materials please have your control number(s) available that appears on your Notice or proxy card. On this website, you can also elect to receive future distributions of our proxy statements and annual reports to stockholders by electronic delivery.

Additionally, you can find a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, at www.sec.gov, or in the “SEC Filings” section of the “Investors” section of our website at https://www.orgenesis.com. You may also obtain a printed copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our financial statements, free of charge, from us by sending a written request to: Investor Relations, Orgenesis Inc., 20271 Goldenrod Lane, Germantown MD 208176.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING AND VOTING

Why is the Company Soliciting My Proxy?

Our Board of Directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, and any adjournments or postponements of the meeting, which we refer to as the annual meeting, to be held at 10:00 a.m. EST on Thursday, December 16, 2021. This year’s annual meeting will be held via live audio webcast on the internet. You will be able to participate, vote and submit your questions during the annual meeting by visiting www.issuerdirect.com/virtual-event/orgs. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during check-in or the meeting, please call the technical support member that will be posted on the virtual shareholder meeting log-on page. We believe that a virtual meeting will provide expanded stockholder access and participation and improved communications. You will not be able to attend the annual meeting physically. This proxy statement, along with the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, summarizes the purposes of the meeting and the information you need to know to vote at the annual meeting.

We have made available to you on the Internet or have sent you this proxy statement, the Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the proxy card and a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 because you owned shares of our common stock on the record date. We intend to commence distribution of the Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials, which we refer to throughout this proxy statement as the Notice, and, if applicable, proxy materials to stockholders on or about October 20, 2021.

Why Did I Receive a Notice in the Mail Regarding the Internet Availability of Proxy Materials Instead of a Full Set of Proxy Materials?

As permitted by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, we may furnish our proxy materials to our stockholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet, rather than mailing printed copies of these materials to each stockholder. Most stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. We believe that this process should expedite stockholders’ receipt of proxy materials, lower the costs of the annual meeting and help to conserve natural resources. If you received the Notice by mail or electronically, you will not receive a printed or email copy of the proxy materials, unless you request one by following the instructions included in the Notice. Instead, the Notice instructs you as to how you may access and review all of the proxy materials and submit your proxy on the Internet. If you requested a paper copy of the proxy materials, you may authorize the voting of your shares by following the instructions on the proxy card, in addition to the other methods of voting described in this proxy statement.

Why Are you Holding a Virtual Annual Meeting?

Due to the public health impact of COVID-19 and to support the health and well-being of our stockholders, this year’s annual meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format. We have designed our virtual format to enhance, rather than constrain, stockholder access, participation and communication. For example, the virtual format allows stockholders to communicate with us in advance of, and during, the annual meeting so they can ask questions of our Board of Directors or management, as time permits.

What Happens if There Are Technical Difficulties during the Annual Meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual annual meeting, voting at the annual meeting or submitting questions at the annual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual annual meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call 1-866-752-8683.

Who May Vote?

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on October 19, 2021 will be entitled to vote at the annual meeting. On this record date, there were 24,275,276 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Our common stock is our only class of voting stock.

If on October 19, 2021 your shares of our common stock were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Securities Transfer Corporation, then you are a stockholder of record.

If on October 19, 2021 your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and the Notice is being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the annual meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the annual meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

You do not need to attend the annual meeting to vote your shares. Shares represented by valid proxies, received in time for the annual meeting and not revoked prior to the annual meeting, will be voted at the annual meeting. For instructions on how to change or revoke your proxy, see “May I Change or Revoke My Proxy?” below.

How Many Votes Do I Have?

Each share of our common stock that you own entitles you to one vote.

How Do I Vote?

Whether you plan to attend the annual meeting or not, we urge you to vote by proxy. All shares represented by valid proxies that we receive through this solicitation, and that are not revoked, will be voted in accordance with your instructions on the proxy card or as instructed via the Internet or telephone. You may specify whether your shares should be voted FOR or WITHHELD for each nominee for director, and whether your shares should be voted for, against or abstain with respect to each of the other proposals. If you properly submit a proxy without giving specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with our Board of Directors’ recommendations as noted below. Voting by proxy will not affect your right to attend the annual meeting.

If your shares are registered directly in your name through our stock transfer agent, Securities Transfer Corporation, or you have stock certificates registered in your name, you may vote:

	●	By Internet or by telephone. Follow the instructions included in the Notice or, if you received printed materials, in the proxy card to vote over the Internet or by telephone.

	●	By mail. If you received a proxy card by mail, you can vote by mail by completing, signing, dating and returning the proxy card as instructed on the card. If you sign the proxy card but do not specify how you want your shares voted, they will be voted in accordance with our Board of Directors’ recommendations as noted below.

	●	At the meeting. You may vote your shares electronically at the virtual annual meeting. You will need the control number(s) on your Notice or proxy card in order to vote at the meeting. Even if you plan to attend the annual meeting virtually, we encourage you to vote in advance so that your vote will be counted in the event you later decide not to attend,

Telephone and Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on December 15, 2021.

If your shares are held in “street name” (held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record), you will receive instructions from the holder of record. You must follow the instructions of the holder of record in order for your shares to be voted. Telephone and Internet voting also will be offered to stockholders owning shares through certain banks and brokers. You will be able to attend the annual meeting, vote and submit your questions during the annual meeting by visiting www.issuerdirect.com/virtual-event/orgs.

How Does Our Board of Directors Recommend that I Vote on the Proposals?

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote as follows:

	●	“FOR” the election of the nominees for director; and

	●	“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

If any other matter is presented at the annual meeting, your proxy provides that your shares will be voted by the proxy holder listed in the proxy in accordance with his or her best judgment. At the time this proxy statement was first made available, we knew of no matters that needed to be acted on at the annual meeting, other than those discussed in this proxy statement.

May I Change or Revoke My Proxy?

If you give us your proxy, you may change or revoke it at any time before the annual meeting. You may change or revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways:

	●	if you received a proxy card, by signing a new proxy card with a date later than your previously delivered proxy and submitting it as instructed above;

	●	by re-voting by Internet or by telephone as instructed above;

	●	by notifying Orgenesis’ Secretary in writing before the annual meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

	●	by attending the annual meeting and voting at the meeting. Attending the annual meeting will not in and of itself revoke a previously submitted proxy. You must specifically request at the annual meeting that it be revoked.

Your most current vote, whether by telephone, Internet or proxy card is the one that will be counted.

What is a proxy?

A proxy is a person you appoint to vote on your behalf. By using any of the methods discussed above, you will be appointing Vered Caplan and Neil Reithinger as your proxies. They may act together or individually on your behalf, and will have the authority to appoint a substitute to act as proxy. If you are unable to attend the Annual Meeting, please use the means available to you to vote by proxy so that your shares of common stock may be voted.

What if I Receive More Than One Notice or Proxy Card?

You may receive more than one Notice or proxy card if you hold shares of our common stock in more than one account, which may be in registered form or held in street name. Please vote in the manner described above under “How Do I Vote?” for each account to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

Will My Shares be Voted if I Do Not Vote?

If your shares are registered in your name or if you have stock certificates, they will not be counted if you do not vote as described above under “How Do I Vote?” If your shares are held in street name and you do not provide voting instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares as described above, the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares has the authority to vote your unvoted shares only on the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm (Proposal 2 of this proxy statement) without receiving instructions from you. Therefore, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee. This ensures your shares will be voted at the annual meeting and in the manner you desire. A “broker non-vote” will occur if your broker cannot vote your shares on a particular matter because it has not received instructions from you and does not have discretionary voting authority on that matter or because your broker chooses not to vote on a matter for which it does have discretionary voting authority.

What Vote is Required to Approve Each Proposal and How are Votes Counted?

Proposal 1: Elect Directors

The nominees for director who receive the most votes (also known as a “plurality” of the votes cast) will be elected. You may vote either FOR all of the nominees, WITHHOLD your vote from all of the nominees or WITHHOLD your vote from any one or more of the nominees. Votes that are withheld will not be included in the vote tally for the election of the directors. Brokerage firms do not have authority to vote customers’ unvoted shares held by the firms in street name for the election of the directors. As a result, any shares not voted by a customer will be treated as a broker non-vote. Such broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this vote.

Proposal 2: Ratify Appointment of

Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy at the annual meeting is required to ratify the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm. Abstentions will have no effect on the results of this vote. Brokerage firms have authority to vote customers’ unvoted shares held by the firms in street name on this proposal. If a broker does not exercise this authority, such broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of this vote. We are not required to obtain the approval of our stockholders to select our independent registered public accounting firm. However, if our stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021, our Audit Committee of our Board of Directors will reconsider its selection.

Who counts the votes?

We have engaged Issuer Direct Corporation (“ISD”) as our independent agent to tabulate stockholder votes. If you are a stockholder of record, and you choose to vote over the Internet, by telephone or fax, ISD will access and tabulate your vote electronically, and if you choose to sign and mail your proxy card, your executed proxy card is returned directly to ISD for tabulation. As noted above, if you hold your shares through a broker, your broker (or its agent for tabulating votes of shares held in street name, as applicable) returns one proxy card to ISD on behalf of all its clients.

Is Voting Confidential?

We will keep all the proxies, ballots and voting tabulations private. We only let our Inspectors of Election, Issuer Direct Corporation, examine these documents. Management will not know how you voted on a specific proposal unless it is necessary to meet legal requirements. We will, however, forward to management any written comments you make on the proxy card or that you otherwise provide.

Where Can I Find the Voting Results of the Annual Meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the annual meeting, and we will publish preliminary, or final results if available, in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days of the annual meeting. If final results are unavailable at the time we file the Form 8-K, then we will file an amended report on Form 8-K to disclose the final voting results within four business days after the final voting results are known.

What Are the Costs of Soliciting these Proxies?

We will pay all of the costs of soliciting these proxies. Our directors and employees may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, fax or email. We will pay these employees and directors no additional compensation for these services. We will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward these proxy materials to their principals and to obtain authority to execute proxies. We will then reimburse them for their expenses.

What Constitutes a Quorum for the Annual Meeting?

The presence, at the meeting or by proxy, of the holders of one-third of the shares of common stock outstanding on the record date entitled to vote at the annual meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Votes of stockholders of record who are present at the annual meeting or by proxy, abstentions, and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists.

Attending the Annual Meeting

This year, the annual meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only. To attend the annual meeting, go to www.issuerdirect.com/virtual-event/orgs shortly before the meeting time, and follow the instructions. You need not attend the annual meeting in order to vote.

Householding of Annual Disclosure Documents

Some brokers or other nominee record holders may be sending you, a single set of our proxy materials if multiple Orgenesis stockholders live in your household. This practice, which has been approved by the SEC, is called “householding.” Once you receive notice from your broker or other nominee record holder that it will be “householding” our proxy materials, the practice will continue until you are otherwise notified or until you notify them that you no longer want to participate in the practice. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

We will promptly deliver a separate copy of our Notice or if applicable, our proxy materials to you if you write or call our corporate secretary to: Investor Relations, Orgenesis Inc., 20271 Goldenrod Lane, Germantown MD 208176, or call us at (480) 659-6404. If you want to receive your own set of our proxy materials in the future or, if you share an address with another stockholder and together both of you would like to receive only a single set of proxy materials, you should contact your broker or other nominee record holder directly or you may contact us at the above address and phone number.

Electronic Delivery of Company Stockholder Communications

Most stockholders can elect to view or receive copies of future proxy materials over the Internet instead of receiving paper copies in the mail.

You can choose this option and save us the cost of producing and mailing these documents by:

	●	following the instructions provided on your Notice or proxy card;

	●	following the instructions provided when you vote over the Internet; or

	●	going to www.iproxydirect.com/ORGS and following the instructions provided.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of October 19, 2021 for (a) the executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table on page 16 of this proxy statement, (b) each of our directors and director nominees, (c) all of our current directors and executive officers as a group and (d) each stockholder known by us to own beneficially more than 5% of our common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to the securities. We deem shares of common stock that may be acquired by an individual or group within 60 days of October 19, 2021 pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such individual or group, but those shares are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person shown in the table. Except as indicated in footnotes to this table, we believe that the stockholders named in this table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown to be beneficially owned by them based on information provided to us by these stockholders. Percentage of ownership is based on 24,275,276 shares of common stock outstanding on October 19, 2021.

Set forth below are the names of the persons nominated for election as directors, their ages, their offices in the Company, if any, their principal occupations or employment for at least the past five years, the length of their tenure as directors and the names of other public companies in which such persons hold or have held directorships during the past five years. Additionally, information about the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led to our Board of Directors’ conclusion at the time of filing of this proxy statement that each person listed below should serve as a director is set forth below:

Name	Age	Position with the Company	Year Became a Director
Vered Caplan	53	Chief Executive Officer, Chairperson of the Board of Directors	2012

David Sidransky	61	Director	2012
Yaron Adler	51	Director	2012
Ashish Nanda	55	Director	2017

Our Board of Directors has reviewed the materiality of any relationship that each of our directors has with Orgenesis, either directly or indirectly. Based upon this review, our Board of Directors has determined that the following members of our Board of Directors are “independent directors” as defined by The Nasdaq Stock Market: Dr. Sidransky, and Messrs. Yachin, Adler, Nanda and Philips.

Vered Caplan – Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board of Directors

Ms. Caplan has served as our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chairperson of the Board of Directors since August 14, 2014, prior to which she served as Interim President and CEO commencing on December 23, 2013.

Ms. Caplan holds a M.Sc. in biomedical engineering from Tel Aviv University specializing in signal processing; management for engineers from Tel Aviv University specializing in business development; and a B.Sc. in mechanical engineering from the Technion– Israel Institute of Technology specialized in software and cad systems.

We believe that Ms. Caplan’s significant experience relating to our industry and a deep knowledge of our business, based on her many years of involvement with the Company, makes her desirable to serve as a director of the Company.

Guy Yachin – Director

Mr. Yachin has served as a director since his appointment on April 2, 2012. Mr. Yachin has served as the President and CEO of Serpin Pharma, a clinical stage Virginia-based company focused on the development of anti-inflammatory drugs, since April 2013.

He holds a BSc. in Industrial Engineering and Management and an MBA from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. Mr. Yachin served on the board of Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. from March 2014 to April 2016.

Committees of our Board of Directors and Meetings

Meeting Attendance. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 there were 5 meetings of our Board of Directors, and the various committees of our Board of Directors met a total of 18 times. No director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of our Board of Directors and of committees of our Board of Directors on which he or she served during fiscal 2020. Our Board of Directors does not have a formal policy with respect to members of our Board of Directors’ attendance at annual stockholder meetings, although it encourages directors to attend such meetings. 5 directors attended our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2020.

Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee (“Audit Committee”) met 9 times during fiscal 2020. This committee currently has three members, Dr. Sidransky and Messrs. Yachin and Philips. Our Audit Committee’s role and responsibilities are set forth in the Audit Committee’s written charter and include the authority to retain and terminate the services of our independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, the Audit Committee reviews annual financial statements, considers matters relating to accounting policy and internal controls and reviews the scope of annual audits. All members of the Audit Committee satisfy the current independence standards promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and by The Nasdaq Stock Market, as such standards apply specifically to members of audit committees. Our Board of Directors has determined that Dr. Sidransky is an “audit committee financial expert,” as the Securities and Exchange Commission has defined that term in Item 407 of Regulation S-K. Please also see the report of the Audit Committee set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement.

A copy of the Audit Committee’s written charter is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website, which is located at http://www.orgenesis.com.

Compensation Committee. Our Compensation Committee (“Compensation Committee”) met 5 times during fiscal 2020 and also acted by unanimous written consent from time to time. This committee currently has three members, Dr. Sidransky and Messrs. Adler and Yachin. Our Compensation Committee’s role and responsibilities are set forth in the Compensation Committee’s written charter and includes reviewing, approving and making recommendations regarding our compensation policies, practices and procedures to ensure that legal and fiduciary responsibilities of our Board of Directors are carried out and that such policies, practices and procedures contribute to our success. Our Compensation Committee also administers our stock and incentive compensation plans. The Compensation Committee is responsible for the determination of the compensation of our chief executive officer, and shall conduct its decision making process with respect to that issue without the chief executive officer present. All members of the Compensation Committee qualify as independent under the definition promulgated by The Nasdaq Stock Market.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving issuances of all compensatory options from the available pool in the amounts and vesting terms that may be presented by the executive officers of the Company from time-to-time. The Compensation Committee does not delegate its authority in such matters.

A copy of the Compensation Committee’s written charter is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website, which is located at http://www.orgenesis.com.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (“Nominating Committee”) acted by unanimous written consent or held 4 meetings in fiscal 2020 and has three members, Messrs. Nanda, Adler and Yachin. Our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Nanda, Adler and Yachin qualify as independent under the definition promulgated by The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Nominating Committee’s responsibilities are set forth in the Nominating Committee’s written charter and include assisting our Board of Directors in:

	●	identifying qualified individuals to become directors,

	●	determining the composition of our Board of Directors and its committees,

	●	developing succession plans for executive officers,

	●	monitoring a process to assess our Board of Directors’ effectiveness, and

	●	developing and implementing our corporate governance procedures and policies.

While the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not yet established a formal policy with respect to diversity, our Board of Directors believes that it is essential that members of our Board of Directors represent diverse business backgrounds and experience and include individuals with a background in related fields and industries. In considering candidates, our Board of Directors considers the entirety of each candidate’s credentials in the context of these standards. We believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should and do provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow our Board of Directors to fulfill its responsibilities.

The Company will consider candidates that are nominated by its stockholders. The name, business experience and other relevant background information of a candidate should be sent to the Chief Executive Officer who will then forward such information to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for their review and consideration. The process for determining whether to nominate a director candidate put forth by a stockholder is the same as that used for reviewing candidates submitted by directors. Other than candidates submitted by its directors and executive officers, the Company has never received a proposed candidate for nomination from any security holder that beneficially owned more than 5% of our common stock.

The Company has not, to date, implemented a policy or procedure by which its stockholders can communicate directly with its directors. Due to the small size of the Company and its resources, the Company believes that this is appropriate.

A copy of the Nominating Committee’s written charter is publicly available on the investor relations section of our website, which is located at http://www.orgenesis.com.

Board Leadership Structure

Ms. Caplan has served as our Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson since August 2014. Prior to that time and since December 2013, she was Interim President and Interim Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors believes that its current leadership structure, in which the positions of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer are held by Ms. Caplan, is appropriate at this time and provides the most effective leadership for the Company in a highly competitive and rapidly changing technology industry. Our Board of Directors believes that combining the positions of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer under Ms. Caplan allows for focused leadership of our organization which benefits us in our relationships with investors, customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies. We believe that any risks inherent in that structure are balanced by the oversight of our independent members of our Board of Directors. Given Ms. Caplan’s past performance in the roles of Chairperson of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, at this time the Board of Directors believes that combining the positions continues to be the appropriate leadership structure for our Company and does not impair our ability to continue to practice good corporate governance.

Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while the Board of Directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of material risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board of Directors reviews significant individual matters as well as risk management processes designed and implemented by management with respect to risk generally. The Board of Directors has designated the Audit Committee as the Board of Directors’ committee with general risk oversight responsibility. The Audit Committee periodically discusses with management the Company’s major risk exposures and the processes management has implemented to monitor and control those exposures and broader risk categories, including risk assessment and risk management policies.

Additionally, members of our senior corporate management and senior executives regularly attend meetings of our Board of Directors and are available to address inquiries of our Board of Directors on risk oversight matters. Separate and apart from the periodic risk reviews and other communications between senior executives and the Board of Directors, many actions that potentially present a higher risk profile, such as acquisitions, material changes to our capital structure, or significant investments, require review or approval of our Board of Directors or its committees as a matter of oversight and corporate governance.

Stockholder Communications to our Board of Directors

Generally, stockholders who have questions or concerns should contact our Investor Relations department at (480) 659-6404. The Company has not, to date, implemented a policy or procedure by which its stockholders can communicate directly with its directors. Due to the small size of the Company and its resources, the Company believes that this is appropriate.

In accordance with SEC rules, the amounts in this column reflect the fair value on the grant date of the option awards granted to the named executive, calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. Stock options were valued using the Black-Scholes model. The grant-date fair value does not necessarily reflect the value of shares which may be received in the future with respect to these awards. The grant-date fair value of the stock options in this column is a non-cash expense for the Company that reflects the fair value of the stock options on the grant date and therefore does not affect our cash balance. The fair value of the stock options will likely vary from the actual value the holder receives because the actual value depends on the number of options exercised and the market price of our Common Stock on the date of exercise. For a discussion of the assumptions made in the valuation of the stock options, see Note 15 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Potential Payments upon Change of Control or Termination following a Change of Control

Our employment agreements with our named executive officers provide incremental compensation in the event of termination, as described herein. Generally, we currently do not provide any severance specifically upon a change in control nor do we provide for accelerated vesting upon change in control. Termination of employment also impacts outstanding stock options.

Due to the factors that may affect the amount of any benefits provided upon the events described below, any actual amounts paid or payable may be different than those shown in this table. Factors that could affect these amounts include the basis for the termination, the date the termination event occurs, the base salary of an executive on the date of termination of employment and the price of our common stock when the termination event occurs.

The following table sets forth the compensation that would have been received by each of the Company’s executive officers had they been terminated as of December 31, 2020.

⁽¹⁾	In accordance with SEC rules, the amounts in this column reflect the fair value on the grant date of the option awards granted to the named executive, calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 718. Stock options were valued using the Black-Scholes model. The grant-date fair value does not necessarily reflect the value of shares which may be received in the future with respect to these awards. The grant-date fair value of the stock options in this column is a non-cash expense for the Company that reflects the fair value of the stock options on the grant date and therefore does not affect our cash balance. The fair value of the stock options will likely vary from the actual value the holder receives because the actual value depends on the number of options exercised and the market price of our common stock on the date of exercise. For a discussion of the assumptions made in the valuation of the stock options, see Note 15 (Stock Based Compensation) to our financial statements, which are included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Each committee member will be paid an additional $7,500 per annum and each committee chairman is to receive $15,000 per annum. Cash compensation will be made on a quarterly basis.

Proposal No. 2

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

(Notice Item 2)

The Audit Committee has appointed Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2012. Our Board of Directors proposes that the stockholders ratify this appointment. Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s audited our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. We expect that representatives of Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s will be present at the annual meeting, will be able to make a statement if they so desire, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

In deciding to appoint Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s, the Audit Committee reviewed auditor independence issues and existing commercial relationships with Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s and concluded that Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s has no commercial relationship with the Company that would impair its independence for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

The following table presents fees for professional audit services rendered by Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and fees billed for other services rendered by Kesselman & Kesselman C.P.A.s during those periods.

Tax fees (3)		12,500		18,300
Other		10,000		49,500
Total fees	$	357,136		520,740

	(1)	Audit fees consisted of audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work generally only the independent registered public accounting firm can reasonably be expected to provide, such as statutory audits.

	(2)	Audit related fees consisted principally of audits of employee benefit plans and special procedures related to regulatory filings in 2020.

	(3)	The tax fees were paid for reviewing various tax related matters.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Public Accountant

Our Audit Committee preapproves all services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors before the respective services were rendered. Our Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by Kesselman & Kesselman and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining their respective independence.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE TO RATIFY THE APPOINTMENT OF KESSELMAN & KESSELMAN C.P.A.S AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM, AND PROXIES SOLICITED BY OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF SUCH RATIFICATION UNLESS A STOCKHOLDER INDICATES OTHERWISE ON THE PROXY.

CODE OF CONDUCT AND ETHICS

We have adopted a code of conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, including our chief executive officer and chief financial and accounting officers. The text of the code of conduct and ethics is posted on the investor relations section of our website, which is located at http://www.orgenesis.com, and will be made available to stockholders without charge, upon request, in writing to the Corporate Secretary at Orgenesis Inc., 20271 Goldenrod Lane, Germantown, MD, 20876, Attn: Secretary.
