(f)

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

The amount of funds used by the Reporting Persons in acquiring the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by them are described in further detail in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D, which disclosure is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3. The source of these funds was the working capital of Dominion.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Dominion, through DC Rainier, acquired the Ordinary Shares and warrants to acquire Ordinary Shares, as further described below, for investment purposes.

DC Rainier was the sponsor of Mount Rainier Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“RNER”), a blank check company formed in February 2021 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities, and in connection therewith held certain shares of RNER common stock and warrants to purchase RNER common stock. On March 23, 2022, the Issuer, RNER and Rover Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer (“Merger Sub”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to which, on February 28, 2023, Merger Sub was merged with and into RNER and RNER became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer and the securityholders of RNER received securities of the Issuer in exchange for RNER securities (the “Merger”). On February 28, 2023, the Issuer, RNER and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, also entered into an Amended and Restated Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”), which amended and restated the Warrant Agreement entered into by such parties on October 4, 2021 (the “Original Warrant Agreement”) in order to, among other things, give effect to the Merger and reflect that the warrants previously issued by RNER to DC Rainier pursuant to the Original Warrant Agreement would now be deemed warrants issued by the Issuer. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, such warrants may not be exercised to the extent that a warrant holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% of the Ordinary Shares immediately after giving effect to such exercise. At the effective time of the Merger, on February 28, 2023, DC Rainier was issued 3,535,119 Ordinary Shares as merger consideration and 535,984 warrants exercisable for up to 401,987 Ordinary Shares in exchange for its shares of RNER common stock and warrants to purchase RNER common stock, in each case, prior to giving effect to the 1-for-10 reverse split of the outstanding Ordinary Shares effected by the Issuer on December 14, 2023 (the “Reverse Split”). Each warrant is exercisable for five years for 3/4ths of an Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $12.79 per whole share. Subsequently, certain of such warrants held by DC Rainier were transferred to third parties, resulting in the Reporting Persons beneficially owning 524,297 warrants exercisable for up to 393,222 Ordinary Shares, prior to giving effect to the Reverse Split.

On March 28, 2023, the Issuer and Dominion entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Dominion provided a firm commitment for an equity line of credit (the “ELOC”), whereby the Issuer may issue up to $100,000,000 of Ordinary Shares to Dominion (or its designee) over the course of 36 months from the date of entry into definitive agreement for the ELOC. As consideration for Dominion’s purchase commitment, on April 5, 2023, the 6^th trading day following the date of the ELOC, the Issuer issued to DC Rainier 1,000,000 Ordinary Shares, which share amount does not reflect the Reverse Split. In addition, Dominion advanced the Issuer an aggregate amount of $2,500,000 as the upfront commitment under the ELOC (the “ELOC Upfront Commitment”).

CUSIP No. M6000J135

SCHEDULE 13D

Page 8 of 11 Pages

In connection with the firm commitment for the ELOC, on February 28, 2023, the Issuer issued to Dominion a senior secured demand promissory note (the “Secured Promissory Note”) to evidence the Issuer’s obligation to repay the ELOC Upfront Commitment. The Secured Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and is due on demand. On March 28, 2023, the Secured Promissory Note was amended (the “First Amendment to Secured Promissory Note”) to provide that, among other things, that demand of payment may not be made until April 24, 2023. As of the date of this Schedule 13D, the Issuer has not fulfilled its obligations under the ELOC.

On May 1, 2023, Dominion made a demand to the Issuer to repay the $2,500,000 loan principal plus accrued interest pursuant to the terms of the Secured Promissory Note. The Issuer failed to make any payment and in spite of numerous efforts made by Dominion in an effort to restructure the Secured Promissory Note and recapitalize the Issuer, the Secured Promissory Note remains in default. In December 2023, Dominion filed a complaint against the Issuer in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, alleging breach of contract and seeking repayment of principal and interest, among other reliefs.

On February 14, 2024, Dominion commenced proceedings under section 10 of the Israeli Insolvency and Financial Rehabilitation Law 5778-2018, which is a motion to initiate insolvency proceedings. The Reporting Persons believe that the Issuer is failing to pay its debts in the ordinary course and on information and belief may even be selectively paying certain obligations to the exclusion of others.

As of March 14, 2024, because the Secured Promissory Note was in default and having received reports of other notes of other securities holders’ being in default, the Reporting Persons collectively formed the intent to become more active in the affairs of the Issuer, including possibly seeking to effect a change of management or to remove and replace certain current members of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, due to, among other things, their belief that current management are mis-managing the business of the Issuer and putting all securityholders at risk. The Reporting Persons believe that abysmal oversight by the Issuer’s Board of Directors permitted significant management missteps, dismal operating performance, and a series of questionable transactions that have resulted in significant loss of economic and strategic value by the Issuer and a consequent deleterious effect on all investors and creditors of the Issuer. To date, the Issuer remains undercapitalized and unable to fulfill its basic obligations to its investors.

The Reporting Persons remind the Issuer’s Board of Directors that directors owe fiduciary duties to all shareholders and, in the case of an Issuer within the zone of insolvency or that is insolvent, to creditors of the Issuer.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the securities of the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investments in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, (i) having open communications with the Issuer’s management and Board of Directors in order to monitor their efforts to increase shareholder value and not squander or secrete Issuer resources, assets, or opportunities outside of the Issuer, (ii) pursuing litigation to enjoin corporate transactions that the Reporting Persons believe have or may be designed to divert value away from the issuer’s current stakeholders for the benefit of management and other as-yet unidentified persons, and (iii) seeking to elect a slate of directors to the Issuer’s Board of Directors who will better manage the affairs of the Issuer and not permit a destructive dissipation of its assets and corporate opportunities. The Reporting Persons may also take other steps to increase shareholder value as well as pursue other plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters set forth in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

The response under Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)-(b)

The number and percentage of the Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person assumes that there were 10,352,602 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of the date of this Schedule 13D, consisting of (i) 9,828,305 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2023, as reported by the Issuer in its proxy statement for its special meeting filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 20, 2023, and (ii) 39,322 Ordinary Shares underlying warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $127.90 per whole share, which are exercisable within 60 days of the date hereof, and in the case of each of (i) and (ii) give effect to the Reverse Split.

CUSIP No. M6000J135

SCHEDULE 13D

Page 9 of 11 Pages

As of the date of this Schedule 13D, DC Rainier directly held (i) 417,807 Ordinary Shares and (ii) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 39,322 Ordinary Shares at $127.90 per whole share, subject to a 9.9% beneficial ownership limitation provision in the Warrant Agreement, representing approximately 4.6% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares. Dominion is the manager of DC Rainier. Dominion Holdings is the manager of Dominion. Mikhail Gurevich and Gennadiy Gurevich are each managing members of Dominion Holdings. As such, these persons may be deemed to beneficially own, and have shared voting and dispositive power with DC Rainier over, the Ordinary Shares, including those underlying such warrants, directly held by DC Rainier.

(c)	None of the Reporting Persons has effected any transactions in Ordinary Shares in the past 60 days.

(d)	Other than the Reporting Persons, and except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, no other person is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of, dividends from or proceeds from the sale, of the Securities.

(e)	Not applicable.
