In addition, the Company is also engaged in promoting Injection Site Treatment & Stabilization Technology (ISTS) for improving the effectiveness of other drugs, which are given subcutaneously.
The outbreak of the Coronavirus in Israel and globally at the beginning of 2020 have has significant economic implications. Many countries, including the State of Israel have taken drastic steps in an attempt to prevent the spread of the virus, which have had a significant impact on the economy in Israel, with the actions that have been taken having included the closure of places of work and the reduction of activity in the economy.
In light of the closing of the economy in the Corona period, the Company has taken a number of direct courses of action, which was done after it had examined the possible implications on the operations, on the one hand the Company took immediate action in order to reduce the quantity of the credit in a self-initiated manner, and in parallel it increased the interest margins, all of which was done in order to reduce risks.
The demand for credit has remained stable and has even increased, however there has been a certain level of increase in requests from drawers and customers to extend the timing of the settlement of their commitments, where the Company has taken action in certain cases, whilst exercising judgment, reviewing each case thoroughly, in order to extend and to provide relief for the drawers and the customers in relation to their repayments.
These actions have enabled the Company's customers to meet their commitments towards it during this period, and also to hedge risks. There was a marked decrease in the morbidity rates in Israel in the reporting period as a result of vaccinations being provided for the entire adult population of the state of Israel, most of the restrictions, which had been imposed, have been removed and the economy has begun to recover, which has also been apparent among the Company's customers.
After the reporting date, there has been an increase in the morbidity rates in Israel and consideration is being given to imposing new restrictions on the economy. As of the time of the publication of the report, the renewed outbreak of the Coronavirus has not had a significant and direct impact on the Company's operations. However, the Company's management is unable to assess and quantify the impact of the continuation of the renewed outbreak of the virus on the future results and on its business operations.

On January 31, 2021, the Company's subsidiary company, Erech Loans Cahalaha Ltd. ("The subsidiary company") signed on an agreement for the receipt of a credit facility from a financial body that is not related to the Company, in an amount of NIS 10 million ("The credit facility"), which will be used by the subsidiary company for the expansion of its operations in the non-banking financing field. The credit facility will bear interest that does not exceed the interest rates that are customary in this market at present and the amount of the interest will not be linked to any index or currency whatsoever. The Company has made collateral available in support of the financing body as is customary in similar agreements, which include, inter alia, personal guarantees by the controlling interests in support of the Company, without their being entitled to receive any consideration of any type whatsoever from the Company.
J. On August 16, 2021, the Company and its consolidated company signed on an agreement for the receipt of a credit facility (which is not renewable) (hereinafter – "The credit agreement") in an amount of up to NIS 50 million with More Provident Funds Ltd. (hereinafter: "The lender") for the purpose of expanding the extent of the Company's and the subsidiary company's operations in the following fields: the discounting of deferred checks, loans, factoring and reverse factoring. The credit facility will be in effect from the time of the signing of the credit agreement and until 6 months from the day on which it is signed and the full amount of the credit and the ancillary payments in respect of it will be settled within 24 months from the time of the signing, as set forth in the agreement. The balance of the credit that has been utilized will bear interest at a fixed rate, not exceeding what is generally acceptable in agreements of this sort, and this subject to additional interest in the event of certain breaches on the companies' part, which have been determined between the parties, and include inter alia: (a) a minimal threshold for tangible shareholders' equity; (b) a tangible shareholders' equity to total assets ratio; (c) a debt – collateral ratio; (d) the value of the deposit of the deposited shares; (e) the spread of the credit portfolio; (f) the mix in the discounting portfolio and the loans that are financed from the said credit facility. Furthermore, arrears interest has been set for unpaid amounts and commissions, including for the unutilized credit facility
Within the framework of the said agreement, the Company has allocated 12,735 option warrants for the purchase of 12,735 regular shares in the Company, without a par value, which are exercisable against a cash payment of the exercise price of 6,932.5 agorot, such that each of the option warrants will be exercisable in a period of 24 months. The value of the option warrants is estimated at approximately NIS 250 thousand, in accordance with the Black and Scholes model.
In the event that the lender exercises all of the option warrants that it holds after the said allocation without other convertible securities in the Company being converted into shares, it is expected to hold shares in the Company at a rate of approximately 4.95% of the Company's issued and paid-up share capital (approximately 3.94% at full dilution). The allocation of the option warrants is subject to the approval of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. for the listing of the shares deriving from the exercise of the option warrants for trading. As of the time of the approval of the financial statements, the Stock Exchange's approval has not been received yet.
The controlling interests have charged some of their shares in the Company in respect of the agreement, under a first ranking lien and an endorsement by way of a charge in an unlimited amount including the assets and rights that are ancillary thereto. In addition, they have charged rights in the company and in the bank accounts, which are set forth in the said agreement, and the rights deriving therefrom and from the receivables deriving therefrom as well as the loan transactions, the factoring and the assets and rights that are ancillary to all of these, in support of the lender.
K. Further to what is stated in Note 13 to the annual financial statements, in August 2021, the subsidiary company did not renew the credit facility in an amount of NIS 8 million from Bank A. On August 18, 2021 (the day on which the commitment was terminated), the Company complied with all of the contractual restrictions and the financial covenants vis-à-vis Bank A and it repaid the credit facility in full.
