On December 21, 2010 Oramed
Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the "Corporation") entered into a
Share Purchase Agreement with Attara Fund, Ltd. for the sale of up to 6,250,000
shares of common stock of the Corporation ("Shares") and warrants to
purchase up to 2,187,500 Shares, for a total purchase price of up to $2,000,000
in cash (subject to a post-closing limit of 9.9% of the Corporation's
outstanding Shares). The Shares and warrants
will be sold in units at a price per unit of $0.32, each unit consisting of
one Share and a warrant to purchase 0.35 of an ordinary share. The
warrants have an exercise price of $0.50 per Share, subject to adjustment, and a
term of five years commencing from the closing of the private placement, which
is expected to occur in January 2011.
The sale
of the units will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities

investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and is exempt from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 505 of
Regulation D promulgated thereunder. There were no underwriting fees or
commissions associated with this transaction.
