PRELIMINARY OFFERING CIRCULAR (under SEC Regulation A) |
DATED JULY 7, 2017 |
Up to $15,000,000
5,000,000 Shares of Common Stock
Price per Share: $3.00
Minimum purchase: 150 Shares ($450)
Implicit valuation of outstanding shares: $60,216,669
This is an offering of shares of Common Stock (“Offered Shares”) of Duke Robotics, Inc. pursuant to Regulation A of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
| Price Per Share to Public | Total Number of Shares Being Offered | Proceeds to Issuer Before Expenses, Discounts and Commissions* | ||||||||||
| Common Stock | $ | 3.00 | 5,000,000 | $ | 15,000,000 | |||||||
* Does not include expenses of the offering, including costs of blue sky compliance, fees to be paid to JumpStart Securities, LLC, as well as legal, accounting, printing, due diligence, marketing, consulting, finders fees, administrative services and other costs. The company estimates these expenses to be approximately $1,150,000 in the aggregate, assuming a sale of all 5,000,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000,000. If the company engages the services of additional broker-dealers in connection with the offering, their commissions will be an additional expense of the offering. The company expects to enter into service agreements with JumpStart Securities, LLC (“JumpStart”), a member of FINRA, to provide subscription and administrative services for the offering. JumpStart Securities, LLC is not an underwriter and will not be paid underwriting fees, but will be paid service fees. See the “Plan of Distribution” for details regarding the compensation payable in connection with this offering.
The offering will terminate at the earliest of:
| ● | the date at which the target offering amount set forth above has been sold; | |
| ● | the date which is six month from this offering being qualified by the SEC; provided, however, the company may extend such date for an additional six months at its sole discretion, or | |
| ● | the date at which the offering is earlier terminated by the company in its sole discretion. |
The target dollar amount of the offering is up to $15,000,000 (the “Target Offering Amount”). The implicit valuation of the company’s outstanding shares is calculated by multiplying the number of shares currently outstanding by the offering price per share. The offering is being conducted on a best efforts basis without any minimum number of shares required to be sold or amount of proceeds required to be received. The company may not be able to sell the Target Offering Amount. The company will conduct one or more closings on a rolling basis as funds are received from investors, at the company’s sole discretion. Funds tendered by investors will be kept in an escrow account until the next closing after they are received by the escrow agent. At each closing, with respect to subscriptions accepted by the company, funds held in escrow will be distributed to the company, and the associated Offered Shares will be issued to the investors that purchased such Offered Shares. Investors may not withdraw their shares from escrow unless the offering is terminated without a closing having occurred. No investor funds will be returned to any subscriber if an insufficient amount of capital is raised from this offering to enable the Company to implement its business plan.
The proposed sale will begin within two (2) calendar days after this Preliminary Offering Circular has been qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The company will provide final pricing information in a final Offering Circular or supplemental Preliminary Offering Circular. The net proceeds of the offering will be the gross proceeds of the Offered Shares sold minus the expenses of the offering.
We are not listed on any trading market or stock exchange, and our ability to list our stock in the future is uncertain. Investors should not assume that the Offered Shares will be listed. A public trading market for the shares may not develop.
Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should purchase these securities only if you can afford a complete loss of your investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 4.
THE SEC DOES NOT PASS UPON THE MERITS OR GIVE ITS APPROVAL OF ANY SECURITIES OFFERED OR THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING, NOR DOES IT PASS UPON THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY OFFERING CIRCULAR OR OTHER SOLICITATION MATERIALS. THESE SECURITIES ARE OFFERED PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION WITH THE COMMISSION; HOWEVER, THE COMMISSION HAS NOT MADE AN INDEPENDENT DETERMINATION THAT THE SECURITIES OFFERED ARE EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION.

Company Information
We were originally organized as an Israeli corporation in March 2014. We recently reorganized as a Delaware corporation and have a wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, Duke Airborne Systems Ltd. Our principal business operations are located in the United States. Our principal executive offices are located at 14 Live Oak St., Suite A, Gulf Breeze, FL 32561; Tel: 850-677-0935.
Our website address is http://www.dukeroboticsys.com. We do not incorporate the information on or accessible through our website into this Preliminary Offering Circular, and you should not consider any information on, or that can be accessed through, our website a part of this Preliminary Offering Circular.
Our Business
We have developed, and are in the process of commercializing our products of an advanced robotics system that enables remote, real-time, pinpoint accurate firing of small arms and light weapons. Our commercialization efforts are focused inside and outside the United States, however we are focused primarily on the United States market. In addition, our commercialization efforts are directed from our United States offices by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Customer Officer that reside in the United States. Although our first product has been designed to be used by unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, our robotic solutions are also adaptable to other military vehicles, boats and stationary environments, as well as civilian purposes like high definition, high-end stabilized cameras. We are able to achieve pinpoint accuracy regardless of the movement of the weapons platform or the target. Our system is to small arms and light weapons (e.g., weapons weighing less than 9 kg) what drones are to air-to-ground missiles.
We have completed our initial design work, and we have prototypes of our first generation of our robotic systems. Prior to marketing our systems to potential customers, for security reasons, we are required to obtain various governmental approvals for each sale in each jurisdiction where sales are to occur. We have filed marketing applications with the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and already received marketing approvals for more than 15 countries including the United States.
The classic confrontation of army against army has become rare, while guerilla (or asymmetric) warfare has unfortunately become commonplace. Further, the foreign policy of the United States and other countries is increasingly designed around the parameter of not employing “boots on the ground” while at the same time minimizing collateral damage. In fighting the global war on terror, the United States and other countries around the world have significantly increased their use of UAVs for intelligence gathering, surveillance and tactical applications, such as delivery of heavy ordnance bombs and missiles. The use of UAVs to fire small arms and light weapons from the air, however, has not yet become a viable option. Our technology thus addresses a crucial need of modern guerrilla warfare to bring a wide range of weapons, other than bombs and missiles, to bear on remote hostile targets without risk to the military personnel deploying the weapons, while at the same time minimizing collateral damage.
Our system was designed with input from veterans of Israel’s elite special mission units. It is operated intuitively via a touch-based tablet which serves as its control unit. Minimal prior training is required in order to operate the robot. In June 2016, our DKL-MK1-SM robot was awarded the top prize at the Combating Terrorism Technology Conference sponsored by the United States Defense Department’s Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO), Israel’s Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D / MAFAAT), and the MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk and many uncertainties. You should carefully consider the specific factors listed below, together with the cautionary statement that follows this section and the other information included in this offering circular, before purchasing our common stock in this offering. If one or more of the possibilities described as risks below actually occur, our operating results and financial condition would likely suffer and the trading price, if any, of our shares could fall, causing you to lose some or all of your investment. The following is a description of what we consider the key challenges and material risks to our business and an investment in our securities.
Risks Related to our Business and Industry
We have a limited operating history and have generated no revenues to date.
Our limited operating history makes evaluating the business and future prospects difficult, and may increase the risk of your investment. Our operating subsidiary in Israel was formed in March 2014. To date, we have generated limited revenues and have not yet begun meaningful commercialization efforts with respect to our products. We intend in the long-term to derive substantial revenues from the sales of our DKL-MK1 SU and SM robots as well as future models of other robots and our UAV platforms for both military and civilian use, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.
We may not be able to obtain adequate financing to continue our operations.
We expect that we will need to raise additional funds to continue the design, manufacture, sale and servicing of our DKL-MK1 SU and SM robots as well as develop future robot products and UAV platforms. Even if we successfully raise significant funds from this offering, we believe that we will need to raise additional capital in the future to fund our research and development and commercialization efforts. If we seek to raise additional capital, we may do so through the issuance of equity, equity-related, or debt securities or through obtaining credit from government or financial institutions. This capital will be necessary to fund ongoing operations, continue research, development and design efforts, establish a sales infrastructure and make the investments in tooling and equipment required to develop and manufacture our products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional funds when needed or that any financing that we may be able to raise will be on favorable terms.
Terms of subsequent financing, if any, may adversely impact your investment.
We may have to engage in common equity, debt, or preferred stock financings in the future. Your rights and the value of your investment in the common stock could be reduced by the dilution caused by future equity issuances. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impact operating results. In the event we are permitted to issue preferred stock pursuant to the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, preferred stock could be issued in series from time to time with such designation, rights, preferences, and limitations as needed to raise capital. The terms of preferred stock would be more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of common stock. In addition, if we need to raise more equity capital from the sale of common stock, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, and possibly more, favorable than the terms of your investment. Shares of common stock which we sell could be sold into any market that develops, which could adversely affect the market price.
Our independent auditor firm has expressed in its report to our 2016 audited financial statements a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We only recently entered the commercialization stage and the development and commercialization of our products are uncertain and expected to require substantial expenditures. We have not yet generated sufficient revenues from our operations to fund our activities, and are therefore dependent upon external sources for financing our operations. There is a risk that we will be unable to obtain necessary financing to continue our operations on terms acceptable to us or at all. As a result, our independent auditor firm has expressed in its auditors’ report on the financial statements for December 31, 2016 a substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. This going concern opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities or otherwise. Future reports on our financial statements may include an explanatory paragraph with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our stockholders may lose their entire investment in the common stock.
We face several regulatory hurdles.
As described in “Business,” our products will need to comply with many governmental standards and regulations (including various export control regimes) relating to the marketing, use and sale of systems in general, and specifically with regards to defense and military applications. Further, because of security concerns, we must receive government clearances before marketing our products to specific customers. In addition, as the use of UAVs is becoming more prevalent, we expect that governments around the world may develop new regulatory schemes relating to the use and sale of UAVs for both military and civilian use. Compliance with all of these requirements may delay, or prohibit, commercialization in various countries, thereby adversely affecting our business and financial condition.
| 4 |
Our revenues will depend heavily on government contracts in the short term.
We expect to derive most of our short term future revenues directly or indirectly from government agencies, mainly the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD). In addition, we intend to offer our products to other governmental agencies around the world, including the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and equivalent authorities of various countries pursuant to contracts awarded to us under defense and homeland security-related programs. Technology products from foreign countries have an inherent disadvantage against domestic offerings. The funding of government programs could be reduced or eliminated due to numerous factors, including geo-political events and macro-economic conditions that are beyond our control. Reduction or elimination of government spending under our contracts would imperil the sales of our products and may cause a negative effect on our revenues, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition.
We face other risks in our expected international sales.
We expect to derive a significant portion of our revenues ultimately from international sales. Changes in international, political, economic or geographic events could cause significant reductions in our revenues, which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the other risks from international operations set forth elsewhere in these Risk Factors, some of the risks of doing business internationally include imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers and restrictions, political and economic instability in the countries of our customers and suppliers, changes in diplomatic and trade relationships and increasing instances of terrorism worldwide. Due to our subsidiary being located in the State of Israel, some of these risks may be affected by Israel’s overall political situation. (See “Risks Related to Israeli Law and Our Operations in Israel” below.)
We operate in a competitive industry.
While we believe that we are the only developer and manufacturer of UAVs capable of pinpoint accurate firing of light weapons, the UAV market generally in which we participate is highly competitive and becoming more so. This market is also characterized by rapid and innovative technological change. If we are unable to improve existing systems and products and develop new systems and technologies in order to meet evolving customer demands, our business could be adversely affected. In addition, our competitors could introduce new products with innovative capabilities, which could adversely affect our business. We compete with many large and mid-tier defense companies on the basis of system performance, cost, overall value, delivery and reputation. Many of these competitors are larger and have greater resources than us, and therefore may be better positioned to take advantage of economies of scale and develop new technologies.
We may experience production delays if suppliers fail to make compliant or timely deliveries.
The manufacturing process for some of our products largely consists of the assembly, integration and testing of purchased components. If a supplier stops delivery of such components, finding another source could result in added cost and manufacturing delays. Moreover, if our subcontractors fail to meet their design, delivery schedule or other obligations we could be held liable by our customers, and we may be unable to obtain full or partial recovery from our subcontractors for those liabilities. The foregoing risks could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
Undetected problems in our products could impair our financial results and give rise to potential product liability claims.
If there are defects in the design, production or testing of our products and systems, we could face substantial repair, replacement or service costs, potential liability and damage to our reputation. Defects or malfunctioning of our products, if they were to occur, would likely result in significant damage and loss of life. We may not be able to obtain product liability or other insurance to fully cover such risks, and our efforts to implement appropriate design, testing and manufacturing processes for our products or systems may not be sufficient to prevent such occurrences, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our business depends on proprietary technology that may be infringed.
Many of our systems and products depend on our proprietary technology for their success. Like other technology-oriented companies, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks, together with non-disclosure agreements, confidentiality provisions in sales, procurement, employment and other agreements and technical measures to establish and protect proprietary rights in our products. While we are in the process of seeking patents for our technology, there is no guarantee that such patents will be granted. Our ability to successfully protect our technology may be limited because:
| ● | intellectual property laws in certain jurisdictions may be relatively ineffective; | |
| ● | detecting infringements and enforcing proprietary rights may divert management’s attention and company resources; | |
| ● | contractual measures such as non-disclosure agreements and confidentiality provisions may afford only limited protection; | |
| ● | any patents we may receive will expire, thus providing competitors access to the applicable technology; |
| 5 |
| ● | competitors may independently develop products that are substantially equivalent or superior to our products or circumvent our intellectual property rights; and | |
| ● | Competitors may register patents in technologies relevant to our business areas. |
In addition, various parties may assert infringement claims against us. The cost of defending against infringement claims could be significant, regardless of whether the claims are valid. If we are not successful in defending such claims, we may be prevented from the use or sale of certain of our products, or liable for damages and required to obtain licenses, which may not be available on reasonable terms, any of which may have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation or financial condition.
We would be adversely affected if we are unable to retain key employees.
Our success depends in part on key management, scientific and technical personnel and our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. There is competition for the services of such personnel. The loss of the services of key personnel, and the failure to attract highly qualified personnel in the future, may have a negative impact on our business. Moreover, our competitors may hire and gain access to the expertise of our former employees.
Significant disruptions of our information technology systems or breaches of our data security could adversely affect our business.
A significant invasion, interruption, destruction or breakdown of our information technology systems and/or infrastructure by persons with authorized or unauthorized access could negatively impact our business and operations. We could also experience business interruption, information theft and/or reputational damage from cyber-attacks, which may compromise our systems and lead to data leakage either internally or at our third party providers. Our systems have been, and are expected to continue to be, the target of malware and other cyber-attacks. Although we have invested in measures to reduce these risks, we cannot assure that these measures will be successful in preventing compromise and/or disruption of our information technology systems and related data.
We are in the process of applying for patents for certain of our key technologies. Our ability to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology is uncertain and may be inadequate, which may have a material and adverse effect on us.
Our success depends significantly on our ability to protect our proprietary rights to the technologies used in our products. We are in the process of applying for patents to protect certain of our key technologies, but we do not have any patents pending and thus we cannot assure you that we will be able to control all of the rights for all of our intellectual property. We do not know whether any of our current or future patent applications will result in the issuance of any patents. Even issued patents may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Patents may not provide a competitive advantage or afford protection against competitors with similar technology. Competitors or potential competitors may have filed applications for, or may have received patents and may obtain additional and proprietary rights to compounds or processes used by or competitive with ours. Both the patent application process and the process of managing patent disputes can be time-consuming and expensive. Competitors may be able to design around our patents or develop products which provide outcomes which are comparable or may even be superior to ours.
In the event a competitor infringes upon our intellectual property rights, enforcing those rights may be costly, uncertain, difficult and time consuming. Even if successful, litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend our patents against challenge could be expensive and time consuming and could divert our management’s attention. We may not have sufficient resources to enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend our patents rights against a challenge. The failure to obtain patents and/or protect our intellectual property rights could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, we have taken steps to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology, including entering into confidentiality agreements and intellectual property assignment agreements with all of our officers, employees, consultants and advisors, however, such agreements may not provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets or other proprietary information in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure or other breaches of the agreements. Furthermore, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. However, we have not executed confidentiality agreement or non-compete agreements with our third-party suppliers and there is no restriction on their working with our competitors or selling our component designs to other parties. In that regard, we deem our complex kinematic algorithms and control software to be our most valuable intellectual property and is done in-house only with no sub-contractor involved.
| 6 |
We may become subject to claims of infringement or misappropriation of the intellectual property rights of others, which could prohibit us from developing our products, require us to obtain licenses from third parties or to develop non-infringing alternatives and subject us to substantial monetary damages.
Third parties could, in the future, assert infringement or misappropriation claims against us with respect to products we develop. Whether a product infringes a patent or misappropriates other intellectual property involves complex legal and factual issues, the determination of which is often uncertain. Therefore, we cannot be certain that we have not infringed the intellectual property rights of others. Our potential competitors may assert that some aspect of our product infringes their patents. Because patent applications may take years to issue, there also may be applications now pending of which we are unaware that may later result in issued patents upon which our products could infringe. There also may be existing patents or pending patent applications of which we are unaware upon which our products may inadvertently infringe.
Any infringement or misappropriation claim could cause us to incur significant costs, place significant strain on our financial resources, divert management’s attention from our business and harm our reputation. If the relevant patents in such claim were upheld as valid and enforceable and we were found to infringe them, we could be prohibited from selling any product that is found to infringe unless we could obtain licenses to use the technology covered by the patent or are able to design around the patent. We may be unable to obtain such a license on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and we may not be able to redesign our products to avoid infringement. A court could also order us to pay compensatory damages for such infringement, plus prejudgment interest and could, in addition, treble the compensatory damages and award attorney fees. These damages could be substantial and could harm our reputation, business, financial condition and operating results. A court also could enter orders that temporarily, preliminarily or permanently enjoin us and our customers from making, using, or selling products, and could enter an order mandating that we undertake certain remedial activities. Depending on the nature of the relief ordered by the court, we could become liable for additional damages to third parties.
The sale of our products is subject to various regulatory requirements of the Israeli Ministry of Defense and will also be subject to regulatory requirements in countries in which we seek to sell our products.
Due to the fact that we sell products used that may be purchased in the defense and/ or military industry, and otherwise conduct business with the IMOD, we may be required to obtain approval from the IMOD with respect to each agreement for the sale of our products. In that regard, we are required to secure the approval of the IMOD prior to offering the sale of our products to any third party. In addition, we are required to obtain approvals from the IMOD prior to the execution and performance of any such agreement. If we fail to obtain approvals in the future, if approvals previously obtained are revoked or expire and are not renewed or if government policies change, our ability to sell our products and services to customers would be impacted, resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, revenues, assets, liabilities and results of operations.
Risks Related to the Investment in our Common Stock
There has been no public market for our Common Stock prior to this offering, and an active market in which investors can resell their shares may not develop for a significant period of time if at all.
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Common Stock. We do not intend in the short-term to seek the listing of our stock on any trading market. Consequently, a significant trading market is not likely to develop following this offering. The initial offering price of our Common Stock in this offering has been set by the company and may not reflect the price at which our common stock will ultimately trade, if it trades at all. As a result, investors may not be able to sell their stock for an indefinite period of time.
Sales of our common stock by insiders under Rule 144 or otherwise could reduce the price of our stock, if a trading market should develop.
Our officers and directors hold restricted stock, but will be able to sell their stock in a trading market if one should develop. In general, our officers and directors and major shareholders, as affiliates, under SEC Rule 144 may not sell more than one percent of the total issued and outstanding shares in any 90-day period, and must resell the shares in an unsolicited brokerage transaction at the market price. However, Rule 144 will only be available for resale in the 90 days after the company files its semi-annual reports on Form 1-SA and annual reports on Form 1-K, unless the company voluntarily files interim quarterly reports on Form 1-U, which the company has not yet decided to do. The availability for sale of substantial amounts of common stock under Rule 144 could reduce prevailing market prices for our securities in any trading market that may develop.

Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on our directors to perform these functions.
We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors. Indeed, we do not have any audit or compensation committee. The board of directors performs these functions as a whole. No members of the board of directors are independent directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
The ownership of our common stock is concentrated among existing executive officers and directors.
Upon the sale of all of the shares offered in this offering, our executive officers and directors will continue to own beneficially, in the aggregate, a vast majority of the outstanding shares. As a result, they will be able to exercise a significant level of control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation, and approval of significant corporate transactions. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of the company or changes in management and will make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without the support of these stockholders.
Investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution.
Due to our significant accumulated deficit, investors in this offering will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of $2.46 per share or approximately 82% of the offering price of the shares if the maximum offering is sold. Further, if all of the shares offered hereby are sold, investors in this offering will own approximately 20% of the then outstanding shares of common stock, but will have paid approximately 100% of the total consideration for our outstanding shares. See “Dilution.”
There is no minimum capitalization required in this offering.
We cannot assure that all or a significant number of shares of common stock will be sold in this offering. Investors’ subscription funds will be used by us as soon as we conduct a closing, which the company may elect to do at any time and at its sole discretion, and no refunds will be given if an inadequate amount of money is raised from this offering to enable us to conduct our business. If we raise substantially less than the entire amount that we are seeking in the offering, then we may not have sufficient capital to meet our operating requirements. We cannot assure that we could obtain additional financing or capital from any source, or that such financing or capital would be available to us on terms acceptable to us. Under such circumstances, investors in our common stock could lose their investment in us.
Risks Related to Israeli Law and Our Operations in Israel
We have offices and other significant operations are located in Israel, and, therefore, our results may be adversely affected by political, economic and military instability in Israel.
While our executive offices are located in the United States, we maintain offices in Israel. In addition, many of our officers and directors are residents of Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel may directly affect our business. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its neighboring countries. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations. During November 2012 and July 2014, Israel was engaged in an armed conflict with a militia group and political party who control the Gaza Strip. In addition, recent political uprisings and conflicts in various countries in the Middle East, including Egypt and Syria, are affecting the political stability of those countries. It is not clear how this instability will develop and how it will affect the political and security situation in the Middle East. This instability has raised concerns regarding security in the region and the potential for armed conflict. In addition, it is widely believed that Iran, which has previously threatened to attack Israel, has been increasing efforts to achieve nuclear capability. Iran is also believed to have a strong influence among extremist groups in the region, such as Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Additionally, the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant, or ISIL, a violent jihadist group, is involved in hostilities in Iraq and Syria and has been growing in influence. Although ISIL’s activities have not directly affected the political and economic conditions in Israel, ISIL’s stated purpose is to take control of the Middle East, including Israel. The tension between Israel and Iran and/or these groups may escalate in the future and turn violent, which could affect the Israeli economy in general and us in particular. Any potential future conflict could also include missile strikes against parts of Israel, including our offices and facilities. Any armed conflicts, terrorist activities or political instability in the region could adversely affect business conditions, could harm our results of operations and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital. Parties with whom we do business may sometimes decline to travel to Israel during periods of heightened unrest or tension, forcing us to make alternative arrangements when necessary in order to meet our business partners face to face. In addition, the political and security situation in Israel may result in parties with whom we have agreements involving performance in Israel claiming that they are not obligated to perform their commitments under those agreements pursuant to force majeure provisions in such agreements.

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of an event associated with the security situation in the Middle East. Although the Israeli government has in the past covered the reinstatement value of certain damages that were caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure that this government coverage will be maintained or, if maintained, will be sufficient to compensate us fully for damages incurred. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions generally and could harm our results of operations.
Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial conditions or the expansion of our business.
Our operations are subject to currency and interest rate fluctuations.
We incur expenses in U.S. dollars and NIS, but our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. The U.S. dollar is our functional currency. However, as we also incur expenses in NIS, we are affected by foreign currency exchange fluctuations through both translation risk and transaction risk. As a result, we are exposed to the risk that the NIS may appreciate relative to the dollar, or, if the NIS instead devalues relative to the dollar, that the inflation rate in Israel may exceed such rate of devaluation of the NIS, or that the timing of such devaluation may lag behind inflation in Israel. In any such event, the dollar cost of our operations in Israel would increase and our dollar-denominated results of operations would be adversely affected.
It may be difficult to enforce a judgment of a United States court against us and our officers and directors to assert United States securities laws claims in Israel or to serve process on our officers and directors and these experts.
Our operational subsidiary was incorporated in Israel. Currently, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Customer Officer reside in the United Stated, but the remainder of our executive officers and directors reside outside of the United States, and most of our assets and most of the assets of these persons are located outside of the United States. Therefore, a judgment obtained against us, or any of these persons, including a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, may not be collectible in the United States and may not necessarily be enforced by an Israeli court. It also may be difficult to affect service of process on these persons in the United States or to assert U.S. securities law claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to initiate an action with respect to United States securities laws in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on an alleged violation of United States securities laws reasoning that Israel is not the most appropriate forum in which to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not United States law is applicable to the claim. If United States law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable United States law must be proven as a fact by expert witnesses, which can be a time consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel that addresses the matters described above. As a result of the difficulty associated with enforcing a judgment against us in Israel, you may not be able to collect any damages awarded by either a United States or foreign court.
Our operations may be disrupted as a result of the obligation of management or key personnel to perform military service.
Our employees and consultants in Israel, including members of our senior management, may be obligated to perform one month, and in some cases longer periods, of military reserve duty until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for citizens who hold certain positions in the Israeli armed forces reserves) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In response to increases in terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will be similar large-scale military reserve duty call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by the absence of a significant number of our officers, directors, employees and consultants. Such disruption could materially adversely affect our business and operations.

Assuming that the target dollar amount of this offering is raised, we estimate that, at a per share price of $3.00, the net proceeds from the sale of the Offered Shares in this offering will be approximately $13,850,000, after deducting the estimated offering expenses1 of approximately $1,150,000.
Upon a successful offering of all of our Offered Shares for maximum aggregate gross proceeds of $15,000,000, we anticipate that our use of proceeds will be as follows:
| ● | Approximately $4,600,000 will be spent on our commercialization efforts for our robotic products; | |
| ● | approximately $4,800,000 will be spent on research and development efforts; | |
| ● | after receipt of aggregate gross proceeds of at least $2,500,000, up to approximately $700,000 will be used to repay a portion of our outstanding liabilities in the approximate amount of $783,000 as of December 31, 2016, which consist of loans from our stockholders, the proceeds of which were used to support the company’s ongoing operations; and | |
| ● | the balance will be added to working capital. From working capital, we expect to pay annual executive salaries and bonuses aggregating $450,000 to our principal executive officers and an aggregate of $130,000 to our non-executive directors and our advisory board members. |
Upon a successful Offering of our Offered Shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $7,500,000, we anticipate that our use of proceeds will be as follows:
| ● | Approximately $2,000,000 will be spent on the commercialization efforts of our robotic products; | |
| ● | approximately $1,200,000 will be spent on research and development efforts; | |
| ● | after receipt of aggregate gross proceeds of at least $2,500,000, up to approximately $ 700,000 will be used to repay a portion of our outstanding liabilities in the approximate amount of $783,000 as of December 31, 2016, which consist of loans from our stockholders, the proceeds of which were used to support the company’s ongoing operations; and | |
| ● | the balance will be added to working capital. From working capital, we expect to pay annual executive salaries and bonuses aggregating $450,000 to our principal executive officers and an aggregate of $130,000 to our non-executive directors and our advisory board members. |
The foregoing information is an estimate based on our current business plan. We may find it necessary or advisable to re-allocate portions of the net proceeds reserved for one category to another, and we will have broad discretion in doing so. Pending these uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering in short-term, interest-bearing securities.
| 1 | We expect to enter into service agreements with JumpStart Securities, LLC, a member of FINRA, to provide subscription and administrative services for the offering. JumpStart Securities, LLC is not an underwriter and will not be paid selling commissions or underwriting fees, but will be paid service fees. |

If you invest in our shares of common stock, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the offering price per share of our common stock and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2016 was $(544,250), or $(0.03) per share of outstanding common stock. Without giving effect to any changes in the net tangible book value after December 31, 2016 other than the sale of an assumed number of 5,000,000 shares in this offering at an assumed initial offering price of $3.00 per share, our pro forma net tangible book value as of December 31, 2016 was $13,429,750, or $0.54 per share of outstanding capital stock. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by the purchasers of our shares in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our capital stock immediately afterwards. This represents an immediate increase of $0.56 per share of capital stock to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $2.46 per share of common stock to the new investors, or approximately 82% of the assumed initial public offering price of $3.00 per share. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

Overview
We have developed, and are in the process of commercializing our products of an advanced robotics system that enables remote, real-time, pinpoint accurate firing of small arms and light weapons. Our commercialization efforts are focused inside and outside the United States, however we are focused primarily on the United States market. In addition, our commercialization efforts are directed from our United States offices by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Customer Officer that reside in the United States. Although our first product has been designed to be used by unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, our robotic solutions are also adaptable to other military vehicles, boats and stationary environments, as well as civilian purposes like high definition, high-end stabilized cameras. We are able to achieve pinpoint accuracy regardless of the movement of the weapons platform or the target. Our system is to small arms and light weapons (e.g., weapons weighing less than 9 kg) what drones are to air-to-ground missiles.
We have completed our first generation of our robotic systems. Prior to marketing our systems to potential customers, for security reasons, we are required to obtain various governmental approvals for each sale. We have filed marketing applications with the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and already received marketing approvals for more than 15 countries, including the United States.
The classic confrontation of army against army has become rare, while guerilla (or asymmetric) warfare has unfortunately become commonplace. Further, the foreign policy of the United States and other countries is increasingly designed around the parameter of not employing “boots on the ground” while at the same time minimizing collateral damage. In fighting the global war on terror, the United States and other countries around the world have significantly increased their use of UAVs for intelligence gathering, surveillance and tactical applications, such as delivery of heavy ordnance bombs and missiles. The use of UAVs to fire small arms and light weapons from the air, however, has not yet become a viable option. Our technology thus addresses a crucial need of modern guerrilla warfare to bring a wide range of weapons other than bombs and missiles to bear on remote hostile targets without risk to the military personnel deploying the weapons, while at the same time minimizing collateral damage.
Our system was designed with input from veterans of Israel’s elite special mission units. It is operated intuitively via a touch-based tablet which serves as its control unit. Minimal prior training is required in order to operate the robot. In June 2016, our DKL-MK1-SM robot was awarded the top prize at the Combating Terrorism Technology Conference sponsored by the United States Defense Department’s Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO), Israel’s Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D / MAFAAT), and the MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel.
Company
Our principal business operations are located in the United States and our Chief Executive Officer currently directs, controls and coordinates our activities in our domestic offices. Our research and development activities are conducted by our wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, Duke Airborne Systems Ltd., which was formed in March 2014. In 2016 we reorganized as a U.S. holding company Our principal executive offices are located at 14 Oak St., Suite A, Gulf Breeze, FL 32561; Tel: 850-677-0935.
Product Lines
We currently offer two lines of products:
| ● | A stand-alone robotic system adaptable for use in various environments, which is capable of precisely firing small arms and light weapons from the air and other mobile and static positions. For example, our robotic system may be mounted on a UAV, on boats, on light all-terrain vehicles, or can be used as a standalone sniper system carried by ground troops. | |
| ● | A UAV system that can carry our robotic system for operational use. |
We have filed marketing applications with the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and already received marketing approvals for more than 15 countries including the United States and Western Europe, while we will be restricted from selling in other major markets like China and Russia.
Expertise of Founders and Management
We believe that our products provide a solution for modern asymmetrical warfare focused on needs identified by veterans of elite special military forces. All of our products result from a deep familiarity with current military operational demands and challenges. In that regard, our management team has extensive experience in the UAV and robotics fields, as well as experience in the Israeli special mission units. Our expertise is based on years of developing complex military airborne systems, advanced robotics, real-time software and innovative user interface technologies.

Technological and Competitive Advantages.
The combination of the military experience of our founders and employees, the high level of technological know-how and diversified skills, has enabled us to introduce a unique high end technology solution – a six degrees of freedom parallel robotic system that works in real time and can stabilize objects up to triple its weight. In that sense, our unique robotic stabilization platform permits a payload to “float” against rotations in all three axes, as well as against vibration and motion in all three directions of movement. We have found this stabilization platform to be particularly important with respect to our DKL-MK1-SM lightweight robot that is mounted with weapons. We believe that in many instances, our product will be able to provide cover for, and replace troops in the battlefield. In addition, we believe that the system will limit broad collateral damage in the battle field.
Products
DKL-MK1-SM Robot – Military Use
Our DKL-MK1-SM lightweight robot allows accurate firing from various configurations consisting of UAV-mounted, land-mounted on light all-terrain vehicles and sea-mounted on boats. The DKL-MK1-SM robot is mounted on our standard DK-HIPPOGRIFF UAV platform, a combined system which we market under the commercial name TIKAD. In addition to the various configurations and mounting options, the DKL-MK1-SM robots also permit the utilization of a wide range of small arms and light weapons, with a maximum weight of 9 kg. The combination of our DKL-MK1-SM robot, along with our stabilization platform and software, provides a unique firing platform that permits precision firing regardless of weather conditions or other variables. For example, the DKL-MK1-SM robot can be mounted with an M4 assault carbine, as pictured below.
Additionally, our DKL-MK1-SM robot may also be utilized as a ground sniper platform. Since the robot is a standalone unit, it can be mounted on a patrol or attack vehicle or be positioned at a strategic location. The capability of remote operation without the need to expose the operator to tactical danger can replace human snipers in an urban setting. This capability may reduce the number of casualties due to “friendly fire” incidents and may also significantly reduce exposure and risk to combat troops.
| 14 |
Our DKL-MK1-SM is controlled by a remote control device that permits the user to exert full control over the elevation and flight direction of the robot. In addition, the remote control device also permits the user to arm the robot as well as control the firing mechanism, as pictured below.
DKL-MK1-SU Robot – Civilian Use
Our DKL-MK1-SU lightweight robot is intend primarily for civilian purposes and can be mounted on our standard DK-HIPPOGRIFF UAV platform. We believe that the DKL-MK-1-SU robot can bring solutions that yet exists for different tasks that require high end stabilization, such as: vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) robotic landing gear for drones and VTOL aircrafts and medical aid robotic uses.
We do not initially intend to focus on the sales of the DKL-MK1-SU robot but expect our sales of the robot to increase as additional product options expand. We will also address, as needed, evolving regulation of civilian UAVs.

Assembly and Testing
Currently, we assemble both of our DKL-MK1-SM and DKL-MK1-SU robots at our facilities in Israel. We outsource components to third party manufacturers, from which we purchase components and custom-made machined parts required for the production of our robots. We currently source our parts and materials from approximately 12 suppliers located primarily in the United States, Europe, Israel and China. We are not, however, dependent on any single manufacturer. In addition, while the components we purchase are built according to our specific designs and requests, we believe the components and materials we purchase are common in nature and can easily be obtained from alternative suppliers, if necessary. We are not dependent on any single manufacturer, and upon receipt of the components, we assemble the final product in-house. In addition, we have not executed supply agreements with our third-party suppliers. More importantly, our proprietary and confidential complex kinematic algorithms and control software is our most valuable intellectual property. We have built an in-house laboratory to support the assembly and commercialization of our products. We believe that the current size and capacity of our in-house laboratory, located at our facilities in Israel, will be sufficient to support all of our commercialization activities in the near future.
| 15 |
UAVs
DK-HIPPOGRIFF
We also manufacture our special purpose Hippogriff UAV to integrate for operational uses with our robots. The Hippogriff is the UAV platform for our current DKL-MK1-SM and DKL-MK1-SU robots and utilizes a multi-rotor propulsion system. The UAV platform is designed to have a number of different configurations in that it may accept multiple robotic system attachments. In that regard, we intend to sell our Hippogriff UAV for both military and civilian use, depending on the robotic system attachment that the end user ultimately seeks to purchase from us. Importantly, the Hippogriff UAV is capable of carrying a payload of up to 10 kg for operational missions.

Similarly to our robotic systems, we currently manufacture the UAV in our facilities in Israel after sourcing parts and raw materials from multiple third-party suppliers. Additionally, once we are able to commercialize and sell our products in the United States, we may establish assembly operations in the United States. In addition to assembling the UAV platform, we currently test all of our products in our in-house laboratory, located at our facilities in Israel. We believe our in-house laboratory will be sufficient to support all of our commercialization activities in the near future.


| 16 |
Product Testing
We have been granted the AS9100 designation, the most stringent aerospace standard. Our robot and UAV systems have been designed, tested and manufactured in accordance with these standards. We are subject to annual audits and testing in order to maintain our AS9100 designation. Major aerospace manufacturers and suppliers worldwide require compliance and/or registration to AS9100 as a condition of doing business with them.
Components are tested and approved against the expected points of failure during extended and aggressive operations. For example, we test items such as the load carrying capacity of our products as well as various software components. After the lab testing phase, the robot and UAVs undergoes a series of field tests which examine the operation of each function. Results are combined with multi-phased airborne testing.
Our Growth Strategy
We expect that our growth will initially derive from sales of our DKL-MK1-SM robot, and later from sales of DKL-MK1-SU robot.
| ● | Focus on sales in the United States. Our principal executive offices and sales functions are located in the United States because we believe that the United States military will be our lead and reference customer. The United States alone presents a significant and diverse market opportunity – special mission units, various counter-terrorism (federal, state and city) units, regular local police forces (the use of less-lethal weapons), U.S. Army, National Guard, US Navy, Coast Guard and the Border Police. |
| ● | Sales to NATO. We believe adoption of our products in the United States will open the markets in the NATO countries. |
| ● | Far East Market. This market has massive security/defense needs, and is constantly acquiring new capabilities and technologies in response to ongoing external and internal threats. |
| ● | Civilian Market. We believe that our robot, the DKL-MK1-SU, due to its novel and unique capabilities, including stabilization of six degrees of freedom in real time, can bring solutions that do not yet exists for different tasks that require high end stabilization, such as VTOL robotic landing gear for drones and aircraft that enables take-offs and landings on uneven terrain and on steep slopes and medical uses for robotic procedures which need high accuracy, |
Sales and Marketing
Marketing and sales efforts are currently concentrated on our model DKL-MK1-SM robot. We have received interest and an initial order from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Our DKL-MK1-SM robot has been designated as a unique system by the Israel Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and has received official approval as the sole supplier of this solution. In addition, we have received inquiries from foreign officials regarding our DKL-MK1-SM.
We are currently in the process of building up our sales and marketing infrastructure primarily in the United States but also globally to implement our marketing strategy. This includes cooperation with agents, distributors and resellers of products that are experienced in our market. We have engaged an experienced U.S.-based sales agent with a proven track record relating to our type of products. We intend to focus our sales efforts in the United States because the U.S. military in general and special mission units in particular are expected to be our largest customers, both in our early commercialization stage and for the foreseeable future. For this reason, we have established our headquarters in Florida, because the units of the U.S. military and special mission units that are our initial strategic target customers, with which we have already established a relationship, are located in Florida.
Operations and Manufacturing
We currently assemble our systems and products at our facilities in Israel. Additionally, once we are able to commercialize and sell our products in the United States, we may establish assembly operations in the United States. Our manufacturing process involves outsourcing components to third party manufacturers, from whom we purchase component parts and raw materials required for the production of our products. We currently source our parts and materials from approximately 12 suppliers located primarily in the United States, Europe, Israel and China; we are not dependent, however, on any single manufacturer. In addition, while the components we purchase are built according to our specific designs and requests, we believe the components and materials we purchase are common in nature and can easily be obtained from alternative suppliers, if necessary. We are not dependent on any single manufacturer, and upon receipt of the components, we assemble the final product in-house. In addition, we have not executed supply agreements with our third-party suppliers. We have built an in-house laboratory to support the assembly and commercialization of our products. We believe that the current size and capacity of our in-house laboratory located at our facilities in Israel will be sufficient to support all of our commercialization activities in the near future.

Intellectual Property
Our success depends, at least in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary technology and intellectual property, and to operate without infringing or violating the proprietary rights of others. We rely on a combination of trade-secrets, know-how, and other contractual rights (including confidentiality and invention assignment agreements) to protect our intellectual property rights. We also restrict access to our sensitive intellectual property information to our most senior management.
We are in the process of applying for patents to protect certain of our key technologies, but we do not have any patents pending and thus we cannot assure you that we will be able to control all of the rights for all of our intellectual property. We do not know whether any of our current or future patent applications will result in the issuance of any patents.
Additionally, our DKL-MK1-SM robot has been designated as a unique system by the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) and has received official approval as the sole supplier of this solution.
Governmental Regulation
Government Contracting Regulations. We operate under laws, regulations and administrative rules governing defense and other government contracts, mainly in Israel and the United States. Some of these carry major penalty provisions for non-compliance, including disqualification from participating in future contracts. In addition, our participation in governmental procurement processes in Israel, the United States and other countries is subject to specific regulations governing the conduct of the process of procuring defense and homeland security contracts.
Israeli Export Regulations. Israel’s defense export policy regulates the sale of a number of our systems and products. Current Israeli policy encourages exports to approved customers of defense systems and products such as ours, as long as the export is consistent with Israeli government policy. Subject to certain exemptions, a license is required to initiate marketing activities. We also must receive a specific export license for defense related hardware, software and technology exported from Israel. Israeli law also regulates export of “dual use” items (items that are typically sold in the commercial market but that also may be used in the defense market). We currently have filed marketing applications with the Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) for more than 15 countries including the U.S.
It is expected that in the mid-term more than 75% of our revenue will be derived from exports subject to Israeli export regulations.
Approval of Israeli Defense Acquisition. The Israeli Defense Entities Law (Protection of Defense Interests) establishes conditions for the approval of an acquisition or transfer of control of an entity that is determined to be an Israeli “defense entity” under the terms of the law. Designation as a “defense entity” is to occur through an order to be issued jointly by the Israeli Prime Minister, Defense Minister and Economy Minister. Although no such orders relating to us have been issued as of the date hereof, it is possible that our Israeli subsidiary may be designated as “defense entities” under the law. An order (pursuant to the law) would establish conditions and restrictions regarding non-Israeli control of our Israeli subsidiary. For example, the Israeli government approval might be required for acquisition of 25% or more of the voting securities or a smaller percentage of shares that grant “means of control” in our company, if such were to directly affect the control of our Israeli subsidiary.
Approval of U.S. and Other Defense Acquisitions. Many countries in addition to Israel also require governmental approval of acquisitions of local defense companies or assets by foreign entities. Mergers and acquisitions of defense related businesses in the U.S. are subject to the Foreign Investment and National Security Act (FINSA). Under FINSA, foreign acquisitions of defense related businesses in the U.S. require review, and in some cases approval, by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. In that regard, if a foreign entity attempts to acquire our company or all of our domestic assets, such transactions may be subject to FINSA.
“Buy American” Laws. The U.S. “Buy American” laws impose price differentials or prohibitions on procurement of products purchased under U.S. government programs. The price differentials or prohibitions apply to products that are not made in the United States or that do not contain U.S. components making up at least 50% of the total cost of all components in the product. However, a Memorandum of Agreement between the United States and Israeli governments waives the Buy American laws for specified products, including most of the products we are currently selling in the United States.
Procurement Regulations. Solicitations for procurements by governmental purchasing agencies in Israel, the United States and other countries are governed by laws, regulations and procedures relating to procurement integrity, including avoiding conflicts of interest, corruption, human trafficking and conflict minerals in the procurement process. Such regulations also include provisions relating to information assurance and for the avoidance of counterfeit parts in the supply chain.
| 18 |
Anti-Bribery Regulations. We conduct operations in a number of markets that are considered high risk from an anti-bribery compliance perspective. Laws and regulations such as the Israel Penal Code, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and corresponding legislation in other countries, prohibit providing personal benefits or bribes to government officials in connection with the governmental procurement process. Israeli defense exporters, like ourselves, are required to maintain an anti-bribery compliance program, including specific procedures, record keeping and training.
Audit Regulations. The IMOD may audit our books and records relating to its contracts with us. Our books and records and other aspects of projects that will be related to the U.S. defense contracts will be subject to audit by U.S. government audit agencies. Such audits review compliance with government contracting cost accounting and other applicable standards. If discrepancies are found this could result in a downward adjustment of the applicable contract’s price. Some other customers have similar rights under specific contract provisions.
Civil Aviation Regulations. Several of our products for commercial aviation applications are subject to flight safety and airworthiness standards of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and similar civil aviation authorities in Israel, Europe and other countries.
Environmental, Health and Safety Regulations. We are subject to a variety of environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we have operations. This includes regulations relating to air, water and ground contamination, hazardous waste disposal and other areas with a potential environmental or safety impact.
Competition
While we believe that our products are novel, and that we have unique knowledge of military operational demands and challenges and years of developing complex military airborne systems and advanced robotics, the defense industry is a competitive environment. Competition is based on product and program performance, price, reputation, reliability, life cycle costs, overall value to the customer and responsiveness to customer requirements. This includes the ability to respond to rapid changes in technology. In addition, our competitive position sometimes may be affected by specific requirements in particular markets.
Continuing consolidation in the defense industry has affected competition. In addition, many major prime contractors are increasing their in-house capabilities. These factors have decreased the number but increased the relative size and resources of our competitors. We adapt to market conditions by adjusting our business strategy to changing market conditions. We also anticipate continued competition in defense markets due to declining defense budgets in many countries.
Our competitors, either alone or through their strategic partners, might have substantially greater name recognition and financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and human resources than we do and significantly greater experience and infrastructure in commercializing defense products, obtaining regulatory approval for those products and commercializing those products around the world.
Research and Development
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we spent $167,000 and $56,000, respectively, on engineering, research and development activities.
Employees
As of July 7, 2017, we employed a total of 8 individuals on a full-time basis. Our principal executive officer and chief customer officer are based in the United States. None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement.
Legal Proceedings
There are no legal proceedings material to our business or financial condition pending and, to the best of our knowledge, there are no such legal proceedings contemplated or threatened.
Properties
Our principal office is located at 14 Live Oak St., Suite A, Gulf Breeze, FL, 32561. We executed a lease for our Florida office on August 1, 2016 which is for a 2 year term. Our current monthly rent is $500. We executed a lease for our Israeli facilities in July 2016 for a 1 year term. Our current monthly rent is approximately $1,000.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We were originally organized as an Israeli corporation in March 2014. During 2016, we reorganized as a Delaware corporation, and have a wholly owned Israeli subsidiary, Duke Airborne Systems Ltd. Since March 2014, we have been engaged primarily in developing, and are now in the process of commercializing, an advanced robotics system that enables remote, real-time, pinpoint accurate firing of small arms and light weapons.
Operating Results
Year Ended December 31, 2016 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2015.
Revenues. During the fourth quarter of 2016, we obtained our first order. Revenues for this order are recognized on the percentage-of-completion basis under which sales and profit are recorded based on the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. As a result, revenues for the quarter totaling $ 220,000 have been recognized.
Cost of Revenues. During 2016, costs incurred to date on the order comprising components and equipment purchased from suppliers, sub-contractors and labor costs amounted to $262,000.
Research and Development. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of professional services as well as the purchase of components and equipment. Research and development expenses for the 2016 fiscal year excluding those relating directly to our first order totaled $167,000 as compared to $56,000 for the 2015 fiscal year. This increase was due to the expanded research and development activities that were carried out during the 2016 fiscal year.
General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses for the 2016 fiscal year totaled $209,000 as compared to $28,000 for the 2015 fiscal year. This increase of $181,000 was primarily due to increased costs associated with the development of the business of the Company and costs incurred with regard to this offering.
Financial Expenses. Financial expenses for the 2016 fiscal year totaled $27,000, as compared to $5,000 in the 2015 fiscal year. The increase in the finance expenses was due to the interest payments made on loans received by the Company to finance its activities as well as exchange rate differences.
Other Income. Other income of $99,000 represents the receipt of the top prize at the Combating Terrorism Technology Conference sponsored by the United States Defense Department’s Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) Israel’s Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D / MAFAAT), and the MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel for our DKL-MK1-SM.
Net Loss. We recorded a net loss of $346,000 for the 2016 fiscal year, compared with a net loss of $89,000 for the 2015 fiscal year. The increase in the loss in the 2016 fiscal year was due to increased research and development costs, a loss resulting from our first order, costs incurred with regard to this offering and an increase in other general and administrative costs and interest costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2016 we had a cash balance of $87,000 compared with a cash balance of $0 as of December 2015.
Since the inception of the company we have primarily funded our operations through bank loans and loans provided by our shareholders.
On November 19, 2014, we signed on a loan agreement with an Israeli bank pursuant to which we received proceeds of $67,000 at a variable annual rate of 6.5%. We are required to repay this loan in 54 equal installments through April 30, 2019.
On August 5, 2015, we obtained a loan from an Israeli bank pursuant to which we received proceeds of $65,000 at a variable annual rate of 3.6%. We are required to repay this loan in 60 equal installments through August 15, 2020.
On February 29, 2016, we obtained a loan from an Israeli bank pursuant to which we received proceeds of $128,000 at a variable annual rate of 4.25%. We are required to repay this loan in 60 equal installments through February 28, 2021. The loan is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of our subsidiary and all of its ordinary shares.
As of December 31, 2016 the outstanding balance of the bank loans stood at $199,000 and as of December 31, 2015 at $113,000
| 20 |
Since inception, the company’s Stockholders(the “Stockholders”) provided loans from time to time, as needed. Some of the loans bear an annual fixed interest at 3% and some of the loans bear an annual interest rate as defined in Section 3(j) of the Israeli tax ordinance (the interest rate for 2015 is 3.05% and 2.56% for 2016).
The Stockholders’ loans, including the accumulated interest amount, shall be repaid in full within 7-15 days from any capital raised by the company or related parties of the company, whether by a stock offering and /or loans in excess of NIS 10 million (approximately $2.5 million)
As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the outstanding balance of the Stockholders’ loans is $499,000 and $107,000, respectively.
In June 2016, we were awarded the top prize at the Combating Terrorism Technology Conference sponsored by the United States Defense Department’s Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) Israel’s Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D / MAFAAT), and the MIT Enterprise Forum of Israel for our DKL-MK1-SM. As part of our top prize, we were awarded $99,000 recorded as Other Income.
During the first quarter of 2017 we issued 55,556 shares of our common stock to an investor in a private placement transaction for aggregate gross proceeds of $125,000.
We believe that based on our current cash balances, together with the investment made by a third party and our ability to obtain additional Stockholder loans on similar terms as set forth above, we will be able to sustain our operations at current levels for approximately 12 months. During this period, we intend to develop our marketing and sales capabilities in order to generate revenues, and we will then need to increase our marketing and sales expenses. We estimate that in the midterm the company will be focused on marketing DKL-MK1-SM, manufacturing and delivering the orders.
Plan of Operations
Over the next 12 months, the company plans to increase its sales and marketing plan. Upon completion of this offering, the company will focus its resources in three key areas: (i) hiring additional key members to its management, marketing and sales team; (ii) expanding sales and marketing to enable increased revenue for the sales of our DKL-MK1-SM; and (iii) continuing the development of new generations of its products. In that regard, the company has engaged an experienced U.S. based sales agent with a proven track record relating to its products and activity in order to assist in the of sales of products in the United States. During February 2017 we took further steps to expand the management team and recruited a local executive to the position of Chief Customer Officer. We also set up an Advisory Board and have recruited a well experienced U.S. based person to lead it.
Our plans include establishing sales and marketing infrastructure in the United States, Far East and Europe – including participation in demonstrations and pilots in different parts of these markets, with a major focus being in the United States. We intend to continue to hire experienced local candidates with a proven track record relating to military and government agencies. We expect that, assuming a successful raise of the full offering amount, we will be able to sustain our plans and operations for at least a twenty-four month period following the closing of the offering.

(collectively, the “Parties”). Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, the Parties agreed to become subject to a bring along provision, whereby prior to an initial public offering, if stockholders holding 50% of the outstanding shares of the company transferred their shares in the company, then the remaining Parties would be eligible to join such a transaction. In addition, each of the Parties would be entitled to a right of first refusal which would entitle them to purchase a selling Parties’ shares of the company’s common stock prior to a sale to a third party. The Stockholders Agreement also provide each of the Parties with a preemptive right to purchase any shares of equity securities to be offered by the company to any third parties. The parties have agreed to terminate the Stockholders Agreement in conjunction with the first closing of this offering.

Future Transactions
We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors. Indeed, we do not have any audit or compensation committee. The board of directors performs these functions as a whole. No members of the board of directors are independent directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
To the extent possible, a majority of the disinterested members of our board of directors will approve future affiliated transactions.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. As of the date of this Preliminary Offering Circular, we had 20,072,223 shares of common stock outstanding. On August 15, 2016, we amended our Certificate of Incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock to 50,000,000 and effectuated a 10,000-for-1 stock split.
The following is a summary of the rights of our capital stock as provided in our articles of incorporation and bylaws. For more detailed information, please see our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which have been filed as exhibits to the offering statement of which this offering circular is a part.
Common Stock
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, does not provide for cumulative voting. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets which are legally available for distribution, after payment of or provision for all liabilities and the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock. The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.
Certain Anti-takeover Effects
Delaware Law
We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, or Section 203. This provision generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless:
| ● | prior to such date, the board of directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; | |
| ● | upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or | |
| ● | on or subsequent to such date, the business combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder. |
Section 203 defines a business combination to include:
| ● | any merger or consolidation involving the corporation and the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the corporation involving the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | subject to certain exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the corporation of any stock of the corporation to the interested stockholder; | |
| ● | any transaction involving the corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of the stock of any class or series of the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or | |
| ● | the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the corporation. |
| 28 |
In general, Section 203 defines an “interested stockholder” as any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation, or an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a corporation at any time within three years prior to the time of determination of interested stockholder status; and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
The provisions of Section 203 may encourage persons interested in acquiring us to negotiate in advance with our board of directors, since the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if a majority of the directors then in office approve either the business combination or the transaction which results in any such person becoming an interested stockholder. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.
Section 214 of the DGCL provides that stockholders are denied the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless our certificate of incorporation, as amended, provides otherwise. Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, does not provide for cumulative voting. These statutory provisions could delay or frustrate the removal of incumbent directors or a change in control of our company. They could also discourage, impede, or prevent a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest, even if such event would be favorable to the interests of our stockholders.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
Our authorized but unissued shares of common stock will be available for future issuance without stockholder approval. We may use additional shares of common stock for a variety of purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital or as compensation to third party service providers. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of discouraging potential acquisition proposals or making a tender offer or delaying or preventing a change in control, including changes a stockholder might consider favorable. In particular, the certificate of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws, as applicable, among other things:
| ● | provide our board of directors with the ability, in certain circumstances, to alter our bylaws without stockholder approval; | |
| ● | provide our board of directors with the exclusive authority to fix the number of directors constituting the whole board; and | |
| ● | provide that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled by a majority of directors in office, although less than a quorum |
Such provisions may have the effect of discouraging a third-party from acquiring us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in its policies, and to discourage some types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change in control of our company. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage some tactics that may be used in proxy fights. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure our company outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging such proposals because, among other things, negotiation of such proposals could result in an improvement of their terms. However, these provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
VStock Transfer, LLC, 18 Lafayette Place, Woodmere, NY 11598 serves as the transfer agent and registrant for our common stock.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are offering a Target Offering Amount of up to $15,000,000 in shares of our common stock. The offering is being conducted on a best-efforts basis without any minimum number of shares or amount of proceeds required to be sold. The company will not initially sell the Offered Shares through commissioned broker-dealers, but may do so after the commencement of the offering. Any such arrangement will add to our expenses in connection with the offering. If we engage one or more commissioned sales agents or underwriters, we will supplement this Offering Statement to describe the arrangement.

There is no minimum offering amount for this offering and the company may close on investor funds held in escrow at any time at its sole discretion. At each closing, funds held in escrow will be distributed to the company, and the associated Offered Shares will be issued to the investors in such Offered Shares.

Except as stated above, subscribers have no right to a return of their funds unless no closings have occurred by the termination date of the offering, in which event investor funds held in escrow will promptly be refunded to each investor without interest. The company may terminate the offering at any time for any reason at its sole discretion.
After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the shares. The company intends to engage Prime Trust, LLC, as escrow agent and the escrow agreement filed as Exhibit 8.1 to the Offering Statement of which this Preliminary Offering Circular is a part.

The Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Offering Circular and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.

TO THE STOCKHOLDERS OF
Duke Robotics, Inc.
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Duke Robotics, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiary which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related Statements of Operations, Changes in Stockholders’ deficiency and Cash Flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1(B) to the financial statements, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to research and development. The Company is still in its development stages and the extent of the Company’s future operating losses and the timing of becoming profitable are uncertain. The Company has incurred losses of $346, and $89 thousands for the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively, and accumulated losses of $555 thousands. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

| A. | Duke Robotics, Inc. (“the Company”) is a company incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware and was formed on April 21, 2016. |
The Company is the owner of 100% of the stocks of Duke Airborne Systems Ltd. (“Duke” or the “Subsidiary”) (together: the “Group”) through restructuring under common control. The Subsidiary incorporated under the laws of the state of Israel on March 5, 2014 and commenced its operations on May 1, 2014.
The restructuring had been performed such that every stockholder of Duke has tendered its stock in Duke in exchange for stock in the Company, causing Duke to become the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Since the above reorganization was made between companies under common control, the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Subsidiary are presented as if the above transaction had occurred on the first day of earliest year presented.
The financial operations overview refers to the financial information of Duke as the predecessor of the Company.
The Company is engaged, through its subsidiary, in developing robotic stabilization platforms.
| B. | Since inception, the Company has devoted substantially all its efforts to research and development. The Company is still in its development stage and the extent of the Company’s future operating losses and the timing of becoming profitable are uncertain. The Company has incurred losses of $346, and $89 for the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively, and accumulated losses of $555. |
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue to operate as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue operating as a “going concern” is dependent on several factors, among them is the ability to raise sufficient additional funding.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| A. | Basis for presentation: |
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in United Sates of America (“GAAP”).
| B. | Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements: |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgement and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgement and assumptions can affect reported amounts and disclosures made. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| F-8 |
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
| C. | Financial statement in U.S. dollars: |
The functional currency of the Company is the U.S dollar (“dollar”) since the dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company has operated and expects to continue to operate in the foreseeable future.
Transactions and balances denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances denominated in foreign currencies have been re-measured to dollars in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830-10, “Foreign Currency Translation”.
All transaction gains and losses from re-measurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate.
| D. | Cash and cash equivalents: |
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and demand deposits in banks, and other short-term liquid investments (primarily interest-bearing time deposits) with original maturities of less than three months.
| E. | Fixed assets: |
Fixed assets are presented at cost, net of investment grants received and less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as the following annual rates:
| % | |||||
| Computers and software | 25-33 | ||||
| Leasehold improvements | 10-15 | ||||
| Furniture and office equipment | 7 | ||||
| F. | Basic and diluted net loss per share: |
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to holders of common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the number of additional Common stocks that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive shares of common stock had been issued, using the treasury stock method, in accordance with ASC 260-10 “Earnings per Share”. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive.
The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding has been retrospectively restated for the equivalent number of stocks as a result of the stock split.
| G. | Revenue recognition: |
The Group generates revenues from long-term contracts involving the design, development, manufacture and integration of robotic stabilization platforms.
Revenues from long-term contracts are recognized using ASC 605-35, “Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”, according to which revenues are recognized on the percentage-of-completion (“POC”) basis.
| F-9 |
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
| G. | Revenue recognition (cont.): |
Sales under long-term fixed-price contracts which provide for a substantial level of development efforts in relation to total contract efforts are recorded using the cost-to-cost method of accounting as the basis to measure progress toward completing the contract and to recognize revenues using the POC basis. According to this method, sales and profits are recorded based on the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. When measuring progress toward completion, the Group may consider other factors, such as contracts’ performance obligations or the achievement of milestones.
The POC method of accounting requires management to estimate the cost and gross profit margin for each individual contract. Estimated gross profit or loss from long-term contracts may change due to differences between actual performance and original estimated forecasts.
When adjustments are required for the estimated total revenue on a contract, these changes are recognized with an inception-to-date effect in the current period. In addition, when estimates of total costs to be incurred exceed estimates of total revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded in the period in which the loss is determined
During December, 2016, the Group received its first order which involves a long–term design and development work.
| H. | Research and development expenses: |
Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of operations as incurred.
| I. | Recent Accounting Standards: |
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations upon adoption.
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which stipulates that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for such goods or services. To achieve this core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determine the transaction price(s); (4) allocate the transaction price(s) to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The guidance also requires advanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which defers the effective date of FASB’s revenue standard under ASU 2014-09 by one year for all entities and permits early adoption on a limited basis. As a result of ASU 2015-14, the guidance under ASU 2014-09 shall apply for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that period. Early adoption is permitted as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods. In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which clarified the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations.

| I. | Recent Accounting Standards (cont.): |
In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which clarified the implementation guidance regarding performance obligations and licensing arrangements. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, which amends guidance in the new revenue standard on collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 must be adopted together with the new revenue standard. The Company is currently reviewing and evaluating this guidance and its impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Exhibit 3.1
Stock Purchase Agreement
AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) between Duke Robotics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the purchaser identified on the signature page (the “Purchaser”).
The Company and the Purchaser agree as follows:
1. Purchase and Sale of Stock. The Company hereby sells to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser hereby purchases from the Company, 16,667 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), at a purchase price of $0.0001 per Share. All of the Shares are being issued upon the execution of this Agreement.
2. Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price shall be paid by the Purchaser upon execution and delivery of this Agreement by check payable to the Company. The Company will promptly issue a certificate or certificates registered in the Purchaser's name representing the Shares, with such certificates to be held in escrow in accordance with the terms hereof.
3. Restrictions.
(a) Of the Shares, 4,167 Shares are “Vested Shares,” and the balance are “Unvested Shares” Subject to the proviso below, all of the Unvested Shares shall become Vested Shares if the Company receives gross proceeds from its current Regulation A offering of at least $8,500,000 on or before the first anniversary of this Agreement. In addition and subject to the proviso below: (i) on the 120 day anniversary of this Agreement, an additional 4,167 Shares (making 8,334 total Vested Shares) shall become Vested Shares; (ii) on the 240 day anniversary of this Agreement, an additional 4,167 Shares (making 12,501 total Vested Shares) shall become Vested Shares; and (iii) on the 360 day anniversary of this Agreement, the remaining additional 4,166 Shares (making 16,667 total Vested Shares) shall become Vested Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Unvested Shares shall become Vested Shares if on an applicable vesting date, the Purchaser’s Consulting Agreement with the Company, dated as of even date herewith (the “Consulting Agreement”), is terminated by the Company due to a material breach by the Purchaser thereunder, which, after notification in writing by the Company, has remained uncured for a period of 30 days from the date of delivery of written notice thereof by the Company. Any determination under this Agreement as to the termination of the Consulting Agreement by the Company due to a material, uncured breach by the Purchaser shall be made in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.
(b) For a period of one year after Shares become Vested Shares, the Purchaser shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, encumber or dispose of all or any Shares without the consent of the Board of Directors of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may transfer all or any of his Vested Shares as a gift or for estate planning purposes, or upon the death of the Purchaser or pursuant to a court order, provided that any such transferee shall agree in writing with the Company, as a condition precedent to such transfer, to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as if such transferee were the Purchaser.
(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Purchaser may not at any time transfer any Shares to any individual, corporation, partnership or other entity that engages in any business activity that is in competition, directly or indirectly, with the products or services being developed, manufactured or sold by the Company. The determination of whether any proposed transferee engages in any business activity that is in competition with those of the Company shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.
4. Purchase by the Company.
(a) In the event that this Agreement terminates at such time as there are then any Unvested Shares or in the event that there are Unvested Shares upon the Purchaser’s death, the Purchaser shall forfeit all of his Unvested Shares and transfer them to the Company in exchange for payment to him of the Repurchase Price. The purchase price (the “Repurchase Price”) of such Shares (the “Repurchased Shares”) shall be the original purchase price (subject to adjustment for stock splits and the like as herein provided). The Company may at any time waive its repurchase right in writing.
(b) The sale of the Repurchased Shares shall take place automatically on the tenth day following the termination of this Agreement. Such sale shall be effected by the Escrow Holder's (as defined below) delivery to the Company of a certificate or certificates evidencing the Repurchased Shares, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, against payment to the Purchaser by the Company of the Repurchase Price by check mailed to the Purchaser. Thereupon, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Repurchased Shares and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Shares being repurchased by the Company without further action by the Purchaser.
(c) If the Company terminates its current Regulation A offering without a closing or disbursement of any funds to Company (a “Qualifying Termination”), the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, given by written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to Purchaser at least 90 days but no more than 120 days after the Qualifying Termination, to purchase all of Purchaser’s then Unvested Shares and transfer them to the Company against payment to him of the Subsection (c) Repurchase Price, as defined below, but only if a Fundamental Event shall not have occurred. A “Fundamental Event” means:

5. Escrow of Shares.

The Escrow Holder is hereby directed to permit transfer of Shares in accordance with this Agreement or instructions signed by both the Purchaser and the Company.
(b) The Escrow Holder shall be entitled to rely on any judgment, certification, demand or other writing delivered to it hereunder without being required to determine the authenticity or the correctness of any fact stated therein, the propriety or validity of the service thereof, or the jurisdiction of the court issuing any such judgment.

(d) The Escrow Holder may act in reliance upon advice of counsel in reference to any matter(s) connected with this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any mistake of fact or error of judgment, or for any acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence.
(e) If the Shares are forfeited in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Escrow Holder, upon receipt of written notice of such forfeiture from the Company, shall take all steps necessary to accomplish the transfer of the Unvested Shares to the Company. The Purchaser hereby grants the Escrow Holder a power of attorney to take any and all actions required to effect such transfer. If the Unvested Shares become Vested Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall advise the Escrow Holder of the occurrence of such event, and the Escrow Holder shall promptly deliver certificates for the Vested Shares to the Purchaser.
(f) Subject to the terms hereof, the Purchaser shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares while they are held in escrow, including without limitation, the right to vote the Shares and receive any cash dividends declared thereon. If, from time to time while the Escrow Holder is holding Shares, there is any stock dividend, stock split or other change in or respecting the Shares, any and all new, substituted or additional securities to which the Purchaser is entitled by reason of his ownership of the Shares shall be immediately subject to this escrow, deposited with the Escrow Holder and included thereafter as "Shares” for purposes of this Agreement and the forfeiture provisions hereof.
(g) It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery, ownership or right of possession of the Shares, the Escrow Holder is authorized and directed to retain in its possession without liability to anyone all or any part of said Shares until otherwise directed by the joint written instructions of the Purchaser and the Company.
(h) All costs, fees and disbursements incurred by the Escrow Holder in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder shall be borne by the Company.
(i) The parties hereto understand that any law firm of which the Escrow Holder is a partner or employee may act as legal counsel to the Company, and that said firm may continue to so act as such counsel in the event of any dispute in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein or affected hereby.
(j) The Escrow Holder shall not be required to sign this Agreement in order for the foregoing provisions to be effective.
6. Adjustments. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange of shares, liquidation, spin-off, split-up, or other similar change in capitalization or event, the securities or property received in respect of such event shall remain subject to the provisions hereof in the same manner as the Shares with respect to which such securities or property is issued, and the Repurchase Price shall be appropriately adjusted by the Company.
7. Waiver of Restrictions. The Company may at any time waive any restriction imposed by any section of this Agreement with respect to all or any portion of any of the Shares.
| 3 |
8. Federal Tax Matters. The Company understands that the Purchaser is making a so-called Section 83(b) election under the Internal Revenue Code. The Purchaser hereby agrees to deliver to the Company a signed copy of such election. The Purchaser has been fully advised by its counsel or a tax accountant concerning the tax consequences of the purchase of the Shares and the effect of the Section 83(b) election with respect thereto.
9. No Obligation as to Employment. The Company is not by reason of this Agreement obligated to continue the Purchaser in any employment, consulting, Board or officer capacity.
10. Satisfaction of Obligation to Issue Equity. The Purchaser acknowledges that the issuance of the Shares to the Purchaser hereunder satisfies and discharges in full any previous understanding between the Company and the Purchaser regarding the issuance of the Company's stock or option rights with respect thereto and supersedes any prior agreements with regard thereto.
11. Investment Representation. The Purchaser represents, warrants and acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from a person or persons acting on behalf of the Company concerning the business of the Company and the terms and conditions of this investment.

12. Lockup. In the event the Company has filed a registration statement under the Securities Act for an initial underwritten public offering of its Common Stock, and if in connection therewith the Company has obtained so-called lock-up agreements from all of its then officers and directors not to sell any shares of Common Stock owned by them for a specified period of time, then the Purchaser shall be bound by the terms of such agreements with respect to the Shares, whether or not the Purchaser has executed such an agreement. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
13. General Provisions.
(a) This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by Delaware law. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Shares and may only be modified or amended in a writing signed by both parties.
(b) If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or render illegal, invalid or unenforceable any other severable provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
(c) Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally, or delivered by fax or email as to which an acknowledgment of receipt has been received by the sender.

ix. Include language in your investor offering circular and subscription agreement, which discloses that Issuer is paying success and other broker-related fees in the Offering, some of which will be paid out of escrow against net funds due to the issuer upon any closing;
c. Issuer represents that it will ensure the marketing and promotional activities it engages in, as related to the Offering, are balanced and in compliance with all SEC rules and regulatory guidance, as well as industry best practices. (e.g. “general solicitation” is permitted in 506(c) and Reg A offerings, but not in 506(b) offerings.) In no event will Issuer or its agents provide “advice” or make securities recommendations to any investor (JumpStart recognizes that Issuer may employ general solicitation, which is permitted by law in specific offerings and Issuer agrees to comply with the requirements of law when engaging in general solicitation for its Offering). Issuer will not compensate any person for directly selling securities unless such person is associated with a FINRA member broker-dealer and is appropriately registered with both the SEC and the state(s) in which the investors reside.

3. Compensation: For services provided under this Agreement, the terms and payments shall be:
a. Non-Contingent Fees: Non-contingent fees are those incurred after the commencement of the offering, which are not conditional upon a specific amount being invested or raised, or the successful closing of the Offering or any other event and are payable to Jumpstart regardless of result. All Fees payable to Jumpstart are Non-Contingent Fees (other than those fees specifically identified in this Agreement as “contingent” fees per section 3.b. below) and are payable to Jumpstart regardless of result. Non-contingent fees are generally charged to Issuer at the time of the service is requested (not completed or acted upon) and are non-refundable. Our non-contingent fees for this offering are as follows:
(i) Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Review:
(a) US Individual - $2;
(b) US Entity - $5
(c) CA/UK individual - $5
(d) CA/US Entity - $75
(e) International Individual - $60
(f) International Entity - $75
AML provides identity verification and other PATRIOT Act compliant BSA checks. This also includes automated exception handling and email notifications to investors but does not include manual processing. Such AML review fees will only be triggered upon a submission of a subscription for investment in the Offering.
b. Success Fees: Success fees are charged when an individual investor enters a securities transaction (“ticket” or “trade”), and are not based upon the entire gross amount of Issuer Offering. Success fees will only be considered earned by, and due and payable to Jumpstart when an investor for whom Jumpstart is serving as a broker-dealer in an Offering is sold securities in the Offering. Unlike Non-Contingent Fees described in section 3a above, Success Fees are “contingent” upon the successful closing of the Offering (meaning that at least the minimum amount identified in the offering memorandum or other offering document is raised or closes) Success Fees are payable to Jumpstart by Issuer out of the escrow account (and are subtracted against amounts in escrow due to Issuer before proceeds are delivered to Issuer by the escrow agent for successfully closed Offerings, whether partial or complete). In the event that these fees are not remitted from escrow, whether by error of the escrow agent or any other reason, then Issuer agrees to immediately remit fees due to Jumpstart by ACH debit from its bank account or by wire. Our fee for this offering (the “Fee Schedule”) is as follows:
(i) 3.75% on all capital raised up to $5.0M, and
(ii) 4.00% on all capital raised between $5.0 M to $10.0M, and
(iii) 4.25% on all capital raised between $10.0M to $15M.
c. Exceptions: Fees may be negotiated on a case-by-case basis with JumpStart Securities principals and agreements must be evidenced in writing. For these purposes, an email from JumpStart to Issuer will constitute sufficient evidence of an alteration of the Fee Schedule. Any negotiated alteration to the Fee Schedule is considered to be a specific, one-time exception to the Fee Schedule above and shall not be interpreted to be, or constitute an amendment or general waiver of the Fee Schedule or other terms of this Agreement unless specifically set forth by JumpStart in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, JumpStart has agreed to pay certain fees on behalf of Issuer for such services. Such fees include: (i) up to $1,000 for accounting fees charged by Prime Trust, LLC, (ii) up to $500 for ACH exception fees charged by Prime Trust, LLC, (iii) up to $4,000 for Reconciliation & Cash Management fees charged by Prime Trust, LLC, and (iv) up to $5,000 for set up fees charged by FundAmerica.
| 4 |
d. Expenses: Issuer shall reimburse JumpStart for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by us in relation to services we provide under this Agreement. Any individual expense in excess of $50 shall require the prior written approval of an agent of Issuer, with email considered an acceptable form of writing. Such expenses are non-contingent and due and payable to JumpStart at the time they are incurred.
e. Payment Terms: JumpStart will generally charge non-contingent fees directly to Issuer’s bank account via ACH-debit. Contingent fees are due upon any sale of securities to investors and will be paid directly out of escrow at each closing, and Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes JumpStart to deduct from escrow any and all unpaid fees, including both contingent and non-contingent fees. Issuer further irrevocably authorizes JumpStart to deduct non-contingent fees directly from Issuer’s bank account via ACH-debit. Issuer will be responsible to pay contingent fees due hereunder. JumpStart shall maintain the blotters, books and records of business transacted and amounts due to JumpStart thereunder. The parties shall have the reasonable right to obtain documentation concerning the details of the payments due.
f. Syndication/Selling Partners: In the event that Issuer, either directly or through JumpStart, enters into selling agreements with any other broker-dealer(s) then JumpStart may charge Issuer for fees due to other parties in accordance with “e” above so that JumpStart may remit applicable fees to those parties as needed. Issuer acknowledges and unequivocally agrees that JumpStart may have fee-sharing agreements with such syndication partners, which in no way affect the compensation that is due to JumpStart under this Agreement. In no event shall fee-sharing arrangements with syndication partners be interpreted to mean that JumpStart is underwriting or leading the Offering, as JumpStart does not provide these services. Rather, the fee sharing arrangement is connected with bookkeeping and remittance services provided by JumpStart for Issuer’s convenience.
g. Cap on Fees and Expenses. JumpStart and the Issuer consent and agree that in no event shall the aggregate fees and expenses, including any non-contingent fees and success fees, charged to the Issuer with respect to this Agreement exceed $600,000 in success fees and $10,000 in non-contingent fees.
4. Non-Exclusivity, No Underwriting: JumpStart Securities is not underwriting this Offering. Issuer may, in its sole discretion, offer the opportunity to any broker-dealer(s) to participate in the syndicate and compensate them for selling, advisory, underwriting and other services. This Agreement is otherwise non-exclusive and shall not be construed to prevent either party from engaging in any business activities.
5. Limited License of Trademarks: During the term of this Agreement, Issuer has the option to generally use JumpStart’s name, logo and trademarks on its website and other marketing materials to disclose that JumpStart is acting as a registered broker-dealer intermediary, so long as the use of JumpStart’s name, logo or trademarks cannot be construed hat the Offering or any transaction is endorsed, recommended, or vetted by JumpStart, or that Issuer or its agents are authorized to act as a securities agent or a representative of JumpStart. Furthermore, it is agreed that JumpStart and Issuer each, in perpetuity, have the option to use the name and logo of one another in disclosing the existence of this business relationship.
| 5 |
6. Independent Contractor: It is agreed that JumpStart and Issuer are independent contractors for the business and services provided hereunder. Under no circumstances shall this Agreement be deemed to imply or infer that Issuer and JumpStart have anything other than an arm’s length and independent relationship. Both JumpStart and Issuer shall be individually responsible and liable for their own respective federal, state, local and other taxes or fees, as well as all costs associated with their businesses.
7. Term and Termination: This Agreement is effective beginning with the date set forth above, and unless terminated shall continue for as long as the Offering remains open and active.
a. Either Party may terminate their participation in this Agreement without cause by giving 30 days written, email notice to the other at any time. Such termination shall only affect future business and not apply to transactions or other business conducted prior to the date of termination.
b. In the event of any termination, unless such termination is for cause (including any regulatory actions or investigations, or complaints filed by investors or persons associated with the issuer or the Offering) the parties shall cease referring and processing investors.
8. Mutual Indemnification: The Parties hereby agree to mutually indemnify, hold harmless and defend the other from and against any and all expenses, costs, judgments, awards, damages, or liabilities (including reasonable costs and attorney fees) whatsoever arising or occasioned wholly or in part from the business activities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.
9. Confidentiality and Mutual Non-Disclosure: It is acknowledged that in the performance of this Agreement each party may become aware of and/or in possession of confidential, non-public information of the other party. Except as necessary in this Agreement’s performance, or as authorized in writing by a Party or by law, the Parties (and their affiliated persons) shall not disclose or make use of such non-public information. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prohibit the SEC, FINRA, or other government official or entities from obtaining, reviewing, and auditing any information, records, or data. Issuer acknowledges that regulatory record-keeping requirements, as well as securities industry best practices, require JumpStart to maintain copies of practically all data, including communications and Offering materials, regardless of any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, information which is, or was, in the public domain (including having been published on the internet) is not subject to this section.

11. Binding Arbitration, Applicable Law and Venue, Attorneys Fees: This Agreement is governed by, and will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the regulations of the SEC and FINRA, and laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Any claim or dispute arising under this Agreement may only be brought in arbitration, pursuant to the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), with venue in New York City, New York. Each of the parties hereby consents to this method of dispute resolution, as well as jurisdiction, and waives any right it may have to object to either the method, venue or jurisdiction for such claim or dispute. Any award an arbitrator makes will be final and binding on all parties and judgment on it may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Furthermore, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover damages plus reasonable attorney’s fees.
12. Entire Agreement, Amendment, Severability and Force Majeure: This Agreement contains the entire agreement between Issuer and JumpStart regarding this Selling Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, no party shall be responsible for any failure to perform due to acts beyond its reasonable control, including acts of regulators, acts of God, terrorism, shortage of supply, labor difficulties (including strikes), war, civil unrest, fire, floods, electrical outages, equipment or transmission failures, internet interruptions, vendor failures (including information technology providers), or other similar causes.

| d. | Escrow Agent’s exercise of the termination rights specified in Section 9. |
During the Escrow Period, the Parties agree that (i) the Escrow Account and escrowed funds will be held for the benefit of the Subscribers, and that (ii) Issuer is not entitled to any funds received into escrow, and that no amounts deposited into the Escrow Account shall become the property of Issuer or any other entity, or be subject to any debts, liens or encumbrances of any kind of Issuer or any other entity, until the sale of such Securities to such Subscribers in bona fide transactions that are fully paid for, in accordance with rules and regulations applicable to the offering and as specified in the offering documents. Even after a sale of Securities to Subscribers, the Issuer or JumpStart may elect to continue to leave funds in the Escrow Account in order to protect investors as needed.
In addition, Issuer and Escrow Agent acknowledge that the total funds raised cannot exceed the Maximum Amount permitted by the Offering Memorandum. Issuer represents that no funds have yet been raised for Duke Robotics, Inc. in the Offering and that all funds to be raised for Duke Robotics, Inc. in the Offering will be deposited in the Escrow Account established by Escrow Agent.
| 3. | Deposits into the Escrow Account. All Subscribers will be directed by the Issuer and JumpStart to transmit their data and funds, via Escrow Agent’s technology systems, directly to the Escrow Agent that has agreed to hold the funds for the benefit of Subscribers and Issuer. All Subscribers will transfer funds directly to Escrow Agent (with checks, if any, made payable to “Prime Trust, LLC as Escrow Agent for Subscribers in Duke Robotics, Inc.”) for deposit into the Escrow Account. Escrow Agent shall process all Escrow Amounts for collection through the banking system and shall maintain an accounting of each deposit posted to its ledger, which also sets forth, among other things, each Subscriber’s name and address, the quantity of Securities purchased, and the amount paid. All monies so deposited in the Escrow Account and which have cleared the banking system are hereinafter referred to as the “Escrow Amount.” Issuer and JumpStart shall promptly, concurrent with any new or modified subscription, provide Escrow Agent with a copy of the Subscriber’s subscription and other information as may be reasonably requested by Escrow Agent in the performance of their duties under this Agreement. Escrow Agent is under no duty or responsibility to enforce collection of any funds delivered to it hereunder. Issuer shall assist Escrow Agent with clearing any and all Anti-Money Laundering and ACH exceptions. |
Funds Hold — clearing, settlement and risk management policy: All Parties agree that funds are considered “cleared” as follows:
Wires — 24 hours after receipt of funds
Checks — 10 days after deposit
ACH — As transactions must clear in a manner similar to checks, and as Federal regulations provide Subscribers with 60 days to recall funds, for risk reduction and protection the Escrow Agent will agree to release, starting 10 calendar days after receipt and so long as the offering is closed, the greater of 94% of funds or gross funds less ACH deposits still at risk of recall. Of course, regardless of this operating policy, Issuer remains liable to immediately and without protestation or delay return to Prime Trust any funds recalled by Subscribers pursuant to Federal regulations.
Escrow Agent reserves the right to deny, suspend or terminate participation in the Escrow Account of any Subscriber to the extent Escrow Agent in its sole and absolute discretion deems it advisable or necessary to comply with applicable laws or to eliminate practices that are not consistent with laws, rules, regulations or best practices.

| 4. | Disbursements from the Escrow Account. Upon receipt of written instruction from Issuer, Escrow Agent shall, pursuant to those instructions, move funds to a Prime Trust Business custodial account in the name of Issuer, the agreement for which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by reference and will be considered duly signed upon execution of this Agreement, to perform cash management and reconciliation on behalf of Issuer and for Issuers wholly owned funds, to make any investments as directed by Issuer, as well as to make disbursements if and when requested. Issuer acknowledges that there is a 24-hour (one business day) processing time once a request has been received to break Escrow or otherwise move funds into Issuers Prime Trust custodial account. Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes Prime Trust to deduct any fees owed to it, as well as to any third parties (and remit funds to such parties) from the Issuers wholly owned gross funds in the custodial account, if and when due. Furthermore, Issuer directs Escrow Agent to accept instructions regarding fees from any registered securities broker in the syndicate, if any. |
| 5. | Collection Procedure. Escrow Agent is hereby authorized, upon receipt of Subscriber funds, to promptly deposit them in the Escrow Account. Any Subscriber funds which fail to clear or are subsequently reversed, including but not limited to ACH chargebacks and wire recalls, shall be debited to the Escrow Account, with such debits reflected on the Escrow ledger accessible via Escrow Agents API or dashboard technology. Any and all escrow fees paid by Issuer, including those for funds receipt and processing are non-refundable, regardless of whether ultimately cleared, failed, rescinded, returned or recalled. In the event of any Subscriber refunds, returns or recalls after funds have already been remitted to Issuer, then Issuer hereby irrevocably agrees to immediately and without delay or dispute send equivalent funds to Escrow Agent to cover the refund, return or recall. If Issuer has any dispute or disagreement with its Subscriber then that is separate and apart from this Agreement and Issuer will address such situation directly with said Subscriber, including taking whatever actions Issuer determines appropriate, but Issuer shall regardless remit funds to Escrow Agent and not involve Escrow Agent in any such disputes. |
| 6. | Investment of Escrow Amount. Escrow Agent may, at its’ discretion, invest any or all of the Escrow Account balance as permitted by banking or trust company regulations. No interest shall be paid to Issuer or Subscribers on balances in the Escrow Account or in Issuers custodial account. |
| 7. | Escrow Administration Fees. Escrow Administration Fees, Compensation of Prime Trust. Escrow Agent is entitled to escrow administration fees from Issuer as set forth in Exhibit A (the “Escrow Fees”). Issuer agrees without exception that it is liable to Escrow Agent to pay, and agrees to pay, Escrow Agent the Escrow Fees, even under circumstances where Issuer has entered an agreement that said fees are to be paid by another party. All Escrow Fees are charged as incurred, and are not contingent in any way on the success or failure of the Offering. Furthermore, Escrow Agent is exclusively entitled to retain as part of its compensation any and all investment interest, gains and other income earned pursuant to item 6 above. No fees, charges or expense reimbursements of Escrow Agent are reimbursable, and are not subject to pro-rata analysis. All fees and charges, if not paid by a representative of Issuer (e.g. funding platform, lead syndicate broker, etc.), may be made via either Issuers credit card or ACH information on file with Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may also collect its fee(s), at its option, from any custodial funds due to Issuer. It is acknowledged and agreed that no fees, reimbursement for costs and expenses, indemnification for any damages incurred by Issuer or Escrow Agent shall be paid out of or chargeable to the investor funds on deposit in the Escrow Account. The Parties consent and agree that in no event shall the aggregate fees charged to the Issuer with respect to this Agreement exceed $100,000 in the aggregate. |

| c. | The Corporation has accurately completed the Preliminary Information Form attached as Exhibit B and provided a copy to the Transfer Agent. |
II. ISSUANCE OF DESIGNATED SECURITIES

| a. | Written instructions as to the issuance from an authorized officer of the Corporation. |
| b. | A certified copy of any order, consent, decree or other authorization that may relate to the issuance of the Designated Securities. |
| 1 |
| c. | An opinion of the Corporation’s counsel that (i) the Designated Securities are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) issuance of the Designated Securities has been registered (stating effective date thereof) under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) (the “Act”) and the class of Securities represented by the Designated Securities has been registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended), or, if exempt from registration, the basis of such exemption, and (iii) no order or consent of any governmental or regulatory authority other than that provided to the Transfer Agent is required in connection with the issuance of the Designated Securities or, if no such order or consent is required, a statement to that effect. The opinion should also indicate whether it is necessary that the Designated Securities bear a restrictive legend and the wording of the legend or a statement to the effect that all Designated Securities to be issued are freely transferable upon presentation to the Transfer Agent for that purpose. |
| d. | Such further documents as the Transfer Agent may reasonably request. |
III. AUTHORIZED OFFICERS

When any officer of the Corporation shall no longer be vested with the authority to sign evidence of Securities for the Corporation, a written notice thereof shall be given to the Transfer Agent and until receipt of such notice the Transfer Agent shall be fully protected and held harmless in recognizing and acting upon the evidence of Securities bearing the signature of such officer or any signature believed by it in good faith to be such genuine signature. |
| b. | The Transfer Agent shall not be charged with notice of any change in the officers of the Corporation until notice of such change shall be given in writing by the Corporation to the Transfer Agent. |
| c. | In the event any officer of the Corporation who shall have signed blank stock certificates or other evidence of Securities (or whose facsimile signature shall have been used) shall die, resign or be removed prior to the issuance of such certificates or other evidence of Securities, the Transfer Agent in its capacity as Transfer Agent or Registrar, may issue or register such stock certificates or other evidence of securities as the stock certificates or evidence of Securities of the Corporation, notwithstanding such death, resignation or removal, unless directed to the contrary by the Corporation in writing. |

| 2 |
| b. | The Transfer Agent is authorized and directed to make transfers of Securities from time to time upon the books of the Corporation as maintained by the Transfer Agent. |
| c. | Securities, in either certificated or book entry form (or other appropriate form of ownership), will be transferred or exchanged upon the surrender of the old Securities (or appropriate instructions in the case of noncertificated shares) in form reasonably deemed by the Transfer Agent to be properly endorsed for transfer, accompanied by such documents as the Transfer Agent may deem necessary to evidence the authority of the person making the transfer. The Transfer Agent reserves the right to refuse to transfer Securities until it has received reasonable assurance that each necessary endorsement is genuine and effective, that the transfer of the Securities is legally valid and genuine and that the requested transfer is otherwise legally in order. For that purpose, Transfer Agent may require an acceptable guaranty of the signature of the person signing and appropriate assurance of authority to do so. The Transfer Agent may rely upon the Uniform Commercial Code, applicable law or regulation, and generally accepted industry practice in effecting transfers, or in delaying or refusing to effect transfers. The Transfer Agent may delay or refuse to process any transfer that in its reasonable judgment appears improper or unauthorized. If, on a transfer of a restricted item, Corporation counsel fails to issue an opinion or to provide adequate reasons therefore within a “reasonable” number of business days of a request to do so, the Transfer Agent is authorized, but not required, to process such transfer upon receipt of an appropriate opinion of presenter’s counsel. |
| d. | Transfer Agent shall be fully protected and held harmless in recognizing and acting upon written instructions of an authorized officer of the Corporation. |
| e. | When the Transfer Agent deems it expedient it may apply to the Corporation, or counsel for the Corporation, or to its own counsel for instructions and advice; the Corporation will promptly furnish or will cause its counsel to furnish such instructions and advice, and, for any action taken in accordance with such instructions or advice, or in case such instructions and advice shall not be promptly furnished, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless the Transfer Agent from any and all liability, including reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs. |
| f. | The Corporation will at all times advise the Transfer Agent of any and all stop transfer notices or adverse claims lodged against Securities of the Corporation and further, will promptly notify the Transfer Agent when any such notices or claims have expired or been removed. The Transfer Agent is not otherwise responsible for stop transfer notices or adverse claims from either the Corporation or third parties unless it has received actual written notice. |
| 3 |
V. RECORDKEEPING
| a. | The Transfer Agent is authorized and directed to maintain records showing the name and address of, and the number of Securities issued to each holder of, said Securities together with such other records as the Transfer Agent may deem necessary or advisable to discharge its duties as set forth herein. |
| b. | In case of any request or demand for the inspection of the stock records of the Corporation or any other records in the possession of the Transfer Agent, the Transfer Agent will notify the Corporation for instructions permitting or refusing such inspection; provided, however, that the Transfer Agent reserves the right to permit the inspection of the stock records and other records of the Corporation and its holders of securities by any regulatory authority including the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). |

The Transfer Agent may make any transfer or registration of ownership for such securities which is believed by it in good faith to have been duly authorized or may refuse to make any such transfer or registration if in good faith the Transfer Agent deems such refusal necessary in order to avoid any liability upon either the Corporation or itself. Corporation agrees that it shall not knowingly give Transfer Agent direction to take any action or refrain from taking any action, if implementing such direction would be a violation of applicable law or regulation. Corporation agrees that it shall not direct Transfer Agent to transfer any security if such security is subject to any restriction or prohibition on transfer to or from a securities intermediary in its capacity as such, and Transfer Agent shall be protected in refusing to effect any such transfer. |
| b. | The Transfer Agent may conclusively and in good faith rely and act, or refuse to act, upon the records and information provided to it by the Corporation and its prior transfer agent or recordkeeper without independent review and shall have no responsibility or liability for the accuracy or inaccuracy of such records and information. |
| 4 |
| c. | The Corporation will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Transfer Agent and its managers, affiliates, agents, officers and employees (the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all: losses, costs, claims, damages, suits, judgments, penalties, liabilities, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, incurred or made, arising out of or in connection with any act or omission of a prior transfer agent of the Corporation or the performance of the Transfer Agent’s obligations under the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to, acting, or refusing to act, in reliance upon any signature, endorsement, assignment, certificate, order, request, notice, report, record, instructions or other instrument or document believed by the Transfer Agent in good faith to be valid, genuine and sufficient (the foregoing are referred to as “Indemnifiable Costs”); provided, however, such indemnification shall not apply to any such act or omission finally adjudicated to have been directly caused by the bad faith or gross negligence of the Transfer Agent. The Indemnitees shall be under no obligation to institute or defend any action, suit, or legal proceeding in connection herewith or to take any other action likely to involve the Indemnitees in expense, unless first indemnified to the Transfer Agent’s satisfaction. The indemnities provided by this paragraph shall survive the resignation or removal of the Transfer Agent or the termination of this Agreement. If the indemnification provisions of this Agreement are inadequate or unavailable for any reason, the Indemnitees shall be entitled to contribution from the Corporation and any third-party payors including insurers for all Indemnifiable Costs. |
| d. | Anything in the Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall either party or its respective affiliates, agents, officers, directors, managers and employees be liable under or in connection with this Agreement for special, indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever, including but not limited to lost profits, whether or not foreseeable, even if advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought. |
| e. | The Transfer Agent may, in connection with the services described in the Agreement, engage subcontractors, agents, co- transfer agents or attorneys-in-fact, provided the same shall have been selected with reasonable care. The Transfer Agent is authorized by the Corporation to execute all agreements, appoint agents or sub-agents and do all other acts deemed necessary to carry out the general purposes of this Agreement. The Corporation shall provide to the Transfer Agent any books, records, or memoranda which are required in defense of any claim which may arise in the performance of the Transfer Agent’s duties hereunder. |
| f. | The Transfer Agent may consult with counsel of its choice, and any advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Transfer Agent with respect to any action taken or omitted by it in good faith, in reliance upon such advice, in connection with the performance of its duties or obligations under the Agreement. The Corporation agrees to reimburse the Transfer Agent for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and counsel fees (including reasonable expenses and disbursements of counsel) incurred with respect thereto. |
| g. | The Corporation agrees that the Transfer Agent shall be paid fees for its services and reimbursed for expenses in accordance with the attached fee schedule (See attached Fee Schedule – Exhibit C), which may be updated by the Transfer Agent from time to time.

X. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
| a. | The Transfer Agent and Corporation acknowledge that during the course of the Agreement, the parties (the Discloser being the “Discloser” and the Recipient the “Recipient”) may make confidential data available to each other or may otherwise have access to proprietary or confidential information regarding the Corporation, its stockholders, or the Transfer Agent, or its or their affiliates (collectively, “Confidential Data”). Confidential Data includes all information not generally known or used by others and which gives, or may give the possessor of such information an advantage over its competitors or which could cause Corporation or Transfer Agent injury, loss of reputation or goodwill if disclosed. Such information includes, but is not necessarily limited to: data or information that identifies past, current or potential customers, stockholders, business practices, financial results, fees, research, development, systems and plans; certain information and material identified by the Discloser as “Proprietary” or “Confidential”; data that the Transfer Agent furnishes to the Corporation from the Transfer Agent’s database; data received from the Corporation and enhanced by the Transfer Agent; and/or data or information that the Recipient should reasonably be expected to know is confidential. Confidential Data may be written, oral, recorded, or maintained on other forms of electronic media. Because of the sensitive nature of the information that the Recipient and its employees or agents may obtain as a result of this Agreement, the intent of the parties is that these provisions be interpreted as broadly as possible to protect Confidential Data. This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, are Confidential and Proprietary, and shall be treated as Confidential Data by the parties hereto. The Transfer Agent acknowledges that all Confidential Data furnished by Corporation is considered proprietary and strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain security measures to protect Confidential Data in its possession. |
| b. | The Recipient agrees to hold as confidential all Confidential Data it receives from the Discloser. As between the Recipient and Discloser, ownership of Confidential Data shall remain with the Discloser, and Recipient shall not take any ownership interest in or right to use the Confidential Data unless expressly agreed in writing by the Discloser. The Recipient will use at least the same care and discretion to avoid unauthorized use and disclosure of the Discloser’s Confidential Data as it uses with its own similar information that it does not wish disclosed, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care and no less than is required by law. The Recipient may only use and disclose Confidential Information of the Discloser only as necessary for the following “Permitted Purposes”: (1) performing its obligations under this Agreement, (2) in the case of Corporation, deriving the reasonable and intended benefit from the services provided by Transfer Agent under this Agreement, and (3) as otherwise specifically permitted in writing by the Discloser in this Agreement or elsewhere. The Recipient may disclose Confidential Data to: (i) its employees and employees of permitted subcontractors and affiliates who have a need to know; (ii) its attorneys and accountants as necessary in the ordinary course of its business; (iii) any regulatory authority, including the SEC and DTCC, and (iv) any other party with the Discloser’s prior written consent. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties further agree, subject to applicable law and regulations, that: (i) Confidential Data shall not be distributed, disclosed, or conveyed to any third party except by prior written approval of the Discloser; (ii) no copies or reproductions shall be made of any Confidential Data, except as needed to provide the services described in this Agreement; and (iii) the Recipient shall not use any Confidential Data for its own benefit or for the benefit of any third party. |
| 7 |
| c. | The parties acknowledge that the unauthorized use or disclosure of any Confidential Data may cause irreparable harm to the Discloser. Accordingly, the parties agree that the Discloser shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief, in addition to all other remedies available at law for any threatened or actual breach of this Agreement or any threatened or actual unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Data. |
| d. | Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Recipient shall promptly notify the Discloser in writing of any subpoena, summons or other legal process served on the Recipient for the purpose of obtaining Confidential Data (i) consisting of a stockholder list, such as an identified class of Corporation stockholders, or (ii) relating to significant regulatory action or litigation that would have a material effect on the performance of the Transfer Agent or corporate status of Corporation. In such cases, the Discloser shall have a reasonable opportunity to seek appropriate protective measures; provided, however, that this subsection shall not require the Transfer Agent to notify the Corporation of its receipt of any subpoena, summons or other legal process seeking Confidential Data for a single stockholder or group of related stockholders in connection with routine tax levies or other routine third party litigation involving a stockholder. The Discloser will indemnify the Recipient for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Recipient in connection with determining the lawful release of the Confidential Data that is subject to a subpoena, summons or other legal process. |
| e. | The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) above shall not apply to: |
| (i) | any disclosure specifically authorized in writing by the Discloser; |
| (ii) | any disclosure required by applicable law or regulation, including pursuant to a court order; or |
| (iii) | Confidential Data which: |
| (1) | has become public without violation of this Agreement; or |
| (2) | was disclosed to the Recipient by a third party not under an obligation of confidentiality to the Discloser; or |
| (3) | was independently developed by the Recipient not otherwise in violation or breach of this Agreement or any other obligation of the Recipient to the Discloser; or |
| (4) | was rightfully known to the Recipient prior to entering into this Agreement. |
| f. | The obligations of each party set forth in paragraphs (a) through (e) above shall survive termination or assignment of this Agreement. |
| 8 |
XI. TERM
| a. | The Agreement shall have an initial term of six (6) months (the “Initial Term”). After the completion of the Initial Term, either party may terminate the Agreement upon sixty (60) days advance written notice. Any notice of termination by the Corporation shall include a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation related to such termination and payment for all amounts due and owing to the Transfer Agent. Note – although there is no specific termination fee, however, if the company terminates this Agreement upon a change of control in ownership, transfer of record fees will apply based on the number of shareholders at that time. |
| b. | Upon the effective date of termination in accordance with the provisions noted above the Transfer Agent shall deliver, at the expense of the Corporation, to the Corporation, or to a successor transfer agent as directed in writing by the Corporation (and if no successor transfer agent has been identified at the time of resignation or removal, then the following shall be provided directly to the Corporation), all records of the Corporation in the possession of the Transfer Agent, with the exception of any blank stock certificates, as discussed in paragraph (a) above. |
