Microbot Medical : Material Event - Form 8-K

Item 8.01 Other Events.

Microbot Medical Inc. (the "Company") is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide an update on the effect on the Company due to recent events in the State of Israel. On October 7, 2023, the State of Israel, where the Company's research and development and other operations are primarily based, suffered a surprise attack by hostile forces from Gaza, which led to the declaration by Israel of the "Iron Swords" military operation. This military operation and related activities are on-going as of the date of this Report.

The Company has considered various ongoing risks relating to the military operation and related matters, including:

The Company is closely monitoring how the military operation and related activities could adversely effect its anticipated milestones and its Israel-based activities to support future clinical and regulatory milestones, including the Company's ability to import materials that are required to construct the Company's devices and to ship them outside of Israel. As of the date of this Report, the Company has determined that there have not been any materially adverse effects on its business or operations, but it continues to monitor the situation, as any future escalation or change could result in a material adverse effect on the ability of the Company's Israeli office to support the Company's clinical and regulatory activities. The Company does not have any specific contingency plans in the event of any such escalation or change.
