PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated July 12, 2024)
Up to $8,250,000
Ordinary Shares
We have entered into a sales
agreement, or the Sales Agreement, with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., or Oppenheimer, dated November 8, 2024, relating to the sale of our
ordinary shares, no par value, or the Ordinary Shares, offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In accordance
with the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell the Ordinary Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $8,250,000
from time to time through Oppenheimer.
Sales of the Ordinary Shares,
if any, under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be made in sales deemed to be an “at the market offering”
as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. If authorized by us in writing,
Oppenheimer may also sell the Ordinary Shares in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices
related to such prevailing market prices. Oppenheimer is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities, but
will act as a sales agent using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed
terms between Oppenheimer and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
Oppenheimer will be entitled
to compensation at a commission rate equal to 3% of the gross sales price per share sold pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement.
See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-10 for additional information regarding the compensation to be paid to Oppenheimer.
In connection with the sale of the Ordinary Shares on our behalf, Oppenheimer will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within
the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation of Oppenheimer will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We
also have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Oppenheimer with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
The Ordinary Shares are currently
traded in the United States on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “PYPD”. On November 7, 2024, the last reported sale
price of the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market was $3.40 per Ordinary Share.
Pursuant to General Instruction
I.B.5 of Form F-3, in no event will we sell our Ordinary Shares in a public primary offering with a value exceeding more than one-third
of our public float in any 12-month period so long as our public float remains below $75.0 million. As of November 8, 2024, the aggregate
market value of our outstanding Ordinary Shares held by non-affiliates, or public float, was approximately $24.8 million, based on 6,798,684
shares of our outstanding Ordinary Shares that were held by non-affiliates on such date and a price of $3.65 per share, which was the
price at which our Ordinary Shares were last sold on the Nasdaq Capital Market on September 24, 2024 (a date within 60 days of the date
hereof), calculated in accordance with General Instruction I.B.5 of Form F-3. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have not
been deemed to have sold any securities pursuant to I.B.5 of Form F-3 of Form S-3 during the 12 calendar months prior to, and including,
the date of this prospectus supplement.
We are an emerging growth
company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and have elected to comply with certain reduced public company
reporting requirements.

does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our securities. You should carefully read the entire
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the “Risk Factors” section starting on page S-3 of this prospectus

Overview
We
are a Phase 3 clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted, locally administered and prolonged-release
therapeutics using our proprietary Polymer-Lipid Encapsulation matriX, or PLEX, technology. Our product candidates are designed to address
diseases with high unmet medical needs by pairing our PLEX technology with drugs already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration,
or FDA, or innovative drug candidates to achieve a novel therapeutic effect. Our PLEX technology is designed to deliver drugs directly
to targeted treated sites in the body at predetermined release rates and predetermined durations ranging from several days to several
months. We believe that our PLEX technology and product candidates have the potential to significantly improve the management of a variety
of medical conditions, including surgical site infections, or SSIs, and cancer. Our lead product candidate, D-PLEX100,
is currently in a pivotal Phase 3 confirmatory trial, SHIELD II, for the prevention
of SSIs in patients undergoing open colorectal abdominal surgery with large incisions. D-PLEX100 pairs our novel
proprietary PLEX technology with doxycycline, a first-line, broad spectrum and FDA-approved antibiotic. D-PLEX100 is administered
directly into the surgical site during surgery, and provides a prolonged and continuous release of the broad-spectrum antibiotic doxycycline,
resulting in high local concentration of the drug for a period of 30 days for the prevention of SSIs, including SSIs caused by standard
of care antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Infections resulting from surgery can be fatal and create a significant public health burden despite
the extensive use of systemically administered antibiotics both pre- and post-operatively and other measures taken to reduce infection
risk in the intra-operative setting. In addition to our lead program D-PLEX100, our pipeline includes an early-stage oncology
program, OncoPLEX, PolyPid’s lead intra-tumoral cancer therapy drug candidate. The OncoPLEX intra-tumoral cancer therapy program
has been evaluated successfully in various animal tumor models, including colon carcinoma, melanoma and glioblastoma.

RISK
FACTORS
Investing
in our securities involves significant risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described
below and discussed under “Item 3. Key Information - D. Risk Factors,” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F, or
any updates in our Reports on Form 6-K, together with all of the other information appearing in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying
prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus, in light of your particular investment
objectives and financial circumstances. The risks so described are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks not presently known
to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our business, financial condition and results of
operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any
of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The discussion of risks includes or refers to forward-looking statements;
you should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed elsewhere in this
prospectus supplement.
Risks
Related to this Offering
Since
we have broad discretion in how we use the proceeds from this offering, we may use the proceeds in ways with which you disagree.
We
intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include financing our operations, capital expenditures
and business development. Accordingly, our management will have significant flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this offering.
You will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity,
as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used in ways with which you would agree. It is possible
that the net proceeds will be invested in a way that does not yield us a favorable, or any, return. The failure of our management to
use the net proceeds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and cash
flow.
Investors
in this offering may incur immediate dilution from the public offering price.
Because
we expect the price per Ordinary Share of the Ordinary Shares being offered to be higher than the book value per share of the Ordinary
Shares, you may suffer immediate dilution in the net tangible book value of the Ordinary Shares you purchase in this offering. Assuming
that an aggregate of 2,426,471 Ordinary Shares are sold during the term of the Sales Agreement with Oppenheimer, at a price of $3.40
per Ordinary Share (the last reported sale price of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on November 7, 2024), for aggregate
gross proceeds of approximately $8,250,000, and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, you would
experience immediate and substantial dilution of $1.56 per Ordinary Share with respect to the net tangible book value of the Ordinary
Shares. See “Dilution” for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you may incur in this offering.
The
actual number of the Ordinary Shares we will sell under the Sales Agreement with Oppenheimer, as well as the price at which we may sell
such Ordinary Shares, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.
Subject
to certain limitations in the Sales Agreement with Oppenheimer and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver
placement notices to Oppenheimer at any time throughout the term of the Sales Agreement. The number of the Ordinary Shares that are sold
by Oppenheimer after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on the market price of the Ordinary Shares during the sales period
and limits we set with Oppenheimer. In addition, the price at which Ordinary Shares are sold by Oppenheimer, from time to time, will
be dependent on the market price of our Ordinary Shares and, as a result, purchasers of our Ordinary Shares that are sold under the Sales
Agreement may purchase such Ordinary Shares at different prices and accordingly may experience different levels of dilution and different
outcomes in their investment results. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase in this offering as
a result of sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.
A
substantial number of our Ordinary Shares will be sold in this offering and we may sell or issue additional Ordinary Shares in the future,
which could cause the price of the Ordinary Shares to decline.
Assuming
we will sell an aggregate of 2,426,471 Ordinary Shares during the term of the Sales Agreement with Oppenheimer, the sold Ordinary Shares
would equal approximately 26.3% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares as of November 7, 2024. This sale and any future issuances or sales
of a substantial number of Ordinary Shares in the public market or otherwise, or the perception that such issuances or sales may occur,
could adversely affect the price of the Ordinary Shares. We have issued a substantial number of Ordinary Shares in connection with the
exercise of warrants and options to purchase our Ordinary Shares, and in the future we may issue additional shares in connection with
the exercise of existing warrants or options, which are eligible for, or may become eligible for, unrestricted resale. Any sales or registration
of such shares in the public market or otherwise could reduce the prevailing market price for the Ordinary Shares, as well as make future
sales of equity securities by us less attractive or not feasible, thus limiting our capital resources.
We
may need additional financing in the future. We may be unable to obtain additional financing or if we obtain financing it may not be
on terms favorable to us. You may lose your entire investment.
There
is no assurance that our existing cash and cash equivalents, along with cash generated from this offering, will be sufficient to fund
our operating expense and capital requirements, and, therefore, we may need additional funds in the future. If our capital resources
are insufficient to meet future capital requirements, we will have to raise additional funds. We may be unable to obtain additional funds
through financing activities, and if we obtain financing it may not be on terms favorable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional
funds on terms favorable to us, we may be required to cease or reduce our operating activities. If we must cease or reduce our operating
activities, you may lose your entire investment.
The
price of the Ordinary Shares may be volatile.
The
market price of the Ordinary Shares has fluctuated in the past. Consequently, the current market price of the Ordinary Shares may not
be indicative of future market prices, and we may be unable to sustain or increase the value of your investment in the Ordinary Shares.
We
do not anticipate paying any dividends.
No
dividends have been paid on our Ordinary Shares. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Ordinary Shares in the foreseeable future,
and anticipate that profits, if any, received from operations will be reinvested in our business. Any decision to pay dividends will
depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available and other relevant factors including, without limitation, the conditions set
forth in the Israeli Companies Law of 1999, or the Companies Law.

5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” as well as in our Annual Report on
Form 20-F generally, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and
the accompanying prospectus. |
You
are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made throughout this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus,
which are designed to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations and prospects.
You
should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made,
and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise, except as required by law.
In
addition, the section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F entitled “Item 4. Information on the Company,” which
is incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, contains information obtained from independent
industry and other sources that we believe to be reliable, but that we have not independently verified. Accordingly, you should not put
undue reliance on this information.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We may issue and sell our
Ordinary Shares having an aggregate sales price of up to $8,250,000 from time to time. Because there is no minimum offering amount required
as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable
at this time.
We intend to use the net proceeds
from the sale of securities under this prospectus supplement for general corporate purposes, which may include financing our operations,
capital expenditures and business development. The timing and amount of our actual expenditures will be based on many factors, and we
cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses of the net proceeds from this offering. Accordingly, our management will have
significant discretion and flexibility in applying the net proceeds of this offering. We have no current commitments or binding agreements
with respect to any material acquisition of or investment in any technologies, products or companies.
Pending our use of the net
proceeds from this offering, we may invest the net proceeds of this offering in a variety of capital preservation investments, including
but not limited to short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have never declared or
paid any cash dividends on our Ordinary Shares and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of cash
dividends, if any, in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including
our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board
of directors may deem relevant.
The Companies Law imposes
further restrictions on our ability to declare and pay dividends.

DILUTION
If you invest in our Ordinary
Shares, you will experience immediate dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price of the Ordinary Shares
in this offering and the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share immediately after the offering.
Our net tangible book value
per Ordinary Share is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the actual number of outstanding Ordinary
Shares. The net tangible book value of our Ordinary Shares as of June 30, 2024, was approximately $0.33 per Ordinary Share. Net tangible
book value per Ordinary Share represents the amount of our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by 4,797,252, the
total number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at June 30, 2024.
Our pro
forma net tangible book value as of June 30, 2024, would have been approximately $9.1 million, representing approximately $1.34
per Ordinary Share. Pro forma net tangible book value per Ordinary Share represents the amount of our total tangible
assets less our total liabilities, divided by 6,803,478 the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding on June 30, 2024, after
giving effect to the issuance and sale on August 6, 2024, of 2,006,226 Ordinary Shares and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to
229,231 Ordinary Shares from June 30, 2024 to the date of this prospectus.
After giving effect to the
assumed sale of our Ordinary Shares during the term of the Sales Agreement with Oppenheimer in the aggregate amount of 2,426,471 at an
assumed offering price of $3.40 per Ordinary Share, the last reported sale price of our Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market on
November 7, 2024, and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net
tangible book value as of June 30, 2024 would have been approximately $17 million, or $1.84 per Ordinary Share. This amount represents
an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $0.50 per Ordinary Share as a result of this offering and an immediate dilution of
approximately $1.56 per Ordinary Share to investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering.
The following table illustrates
this dilution on a per share basis. The as adjusted information is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual prices to the
public, the actual number of Ordinary Shares sold, and other terms of the offering determined at the times our Ordinary Shares are sold
pursuant to this prospectus supplement. The Ordinary Shares sold in this offering, if any, will be sold from time to time at various prices.

The above discussion and table
are based on 4,797,252 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024, and do not include the following as of that date or any securities
issued after such date:
| ● | 1,439,705 Ordinary Shares issuable
upon the exercise of options outstanding under our 2012 Plan, at a weighted average exercise price of $7.30 per share, of which 73,501
were vested as of June 30, 2024; |
| ● | 867,124 Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance and available
for future grant under our 2012 Plan; |
| ● | 3,378,400 Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding
warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares, at a weighted average exercise price of $5.60 per Ordinary Share; and |
| ● | 227,619 Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding
pre-funded warrants to purchase Ordinary Shares, at a weighted average exercise price of $0.0001 per Ordinary Share. |
To the extent that outstanding
options or warrants are exercised, or we issue additional Ordinary Shares under our equity incentive plans, you may experience further
dilution. In addition, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe
that we have sufficient funds for our current and future operating plans. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the
sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of those securities could result in further dilution to the holders of our
Ordinary Shares.
DESCRIPTION OF OUR ORDINARY SHARES
The
material terms and provisions of our Ordinary Shares are described under the heading “Description of Our Ordinary Shares”
in the accompanying prospectus.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We have entered into a Sales
Agreement with Oppenheimer under which we may issue and sell our Ordinary Shares from time to time up to amounts to be determined from
time to time through Oppenheimer acting as agent. A copy of the Sales Agreement will be filed as an exhibit to a Report on Form 6-K and
incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus form a part.
Upon delivery of a placement
notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, Oppenheimer may sell our Ordinary Shares by any method permitted
by law deemed to be an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act. We may
instruct Oppenheimer not to sell Ordinary Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us from time to time.
We or Oppenheimer may suspend the offering of Ordinary Shares upon notice and subject to other conditions.
We will pay Oppenheimer commissions,
in cash, for its services in acting as agent in the sale of our Ordinary Shares. Oppenheimer will be entitled to compensation at a commission
rate equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold under this prospectus supplement. Because there is no minimum offering amount
required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not
determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse Oppenheimer for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements
of its legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed $50,000. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding compensation
and reimbursements payable to Oppenheimer under the terms of the Sales Agreement, will be approximately $30,000.
Settlement for sales of Ordinary
Shares will occur on the first trading day following the date on which any sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed upon by
us and Oppenheimer in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. Sales of our Ordinary
Shares as contemplated in this prospectus supplement will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such
other means as we and Oppenheimer may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
Oppenheimer will use its commercially
reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the Ordinary Shares under the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sales Agreement. In connection with the sale of the Ordinary Shares on our behalf, Oppenheimer
will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of Oppenheimer will be
deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Oppenheimer against
certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The offering of Ordinary Shares
pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. We and Oppenheimer may each
terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon ten (10) days’ prior notice or by Oppenheimer at any time in certain circumstances,
including the occurrence of a material and adverse change in our business or financial condition that makes it impractical or inadvisable
to market our Ordinary Shares or to enforce contracts for the sale of our Ordinary Shares.
Oppenheimer and its affiliates
may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which
services they may in the future receive customary fees. To the extent required by Regulation M, Oppenheimer will not engage in any market
making activities involving our Ordinary Shares while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus supplement.
This prospectus supplement
and the accompanying prospectus in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by Oppenheimer and Oppenheimer may
distribute this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus electronically.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are incorporated under
the laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers, most of whom reside outside of the United
States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and the vast majority
of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of
our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States.
We have been informed by our
legal counsel in Israel, Sullivan & Worcester Tel-Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law
claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws
because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim if
U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact which can be a time-consuming and costly
process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law.
Subject to specified time
limitations and legal procedures, an Israeli court may enforce a United States judgment in a civil matter, which, subject to certain exceptions,
is non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and including
a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:
|
● |
the judgment was obtained after due process before a court of competent jurisdiction, according to the laws of the state in which the judgment is given and the rules of private international law currently prevailing in Israel; |
|
● |
the judgment is final and is not subject to any right of appeal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the prevailing law of the foreign state in which the judgment was rendered allows for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts; however, the court may enforce a foreign judgment, even without reciprocity, based on the request of the Attorney General, under certain circumstances; |
|
● |
the liabilities under the judgment are enforceable
according to the laws of the State of Israel and the judgment and the enforcement of the civil liabilities set forth in the judgment is
not contrary to the law or public policy in Israel nor likely to impair the security or sovereignty of Israel;
|
|
● |
the judgment was not obtained by fraud, there was reasonable opportunity for the defendant to present their case, the judgment was given by an authorized court under the applicable international private law rules in Israel, and the judgement does not conflict with any other valid judgments in the same matter between the same parties; |
|
● |
an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the lawsuit is instituted in the foreign court; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the judgment is enforceable according to the law of the foreign state in which it was granted; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
enforcement may be denied if it could harm the sovereignty or security of Israel. |
If a foreign judgment is declared
enforceable by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency. The conversion to Israeli currency will be based on
the latest official exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel before the payment date. However, the obligated party will fulfill its
duty for the judgment even if they choose to make the payment in the same foreign currency, subject to the laws governing the foreign
currency applicable at that time.
Pending collection, the amount
of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli consumer price index plus interest
at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange
rates.

ABOUT POLYPID LTD.
This summary highlights
information contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire
prospectus, and our other filings with the SEC, including those filings incorporated herein by reference, carefully, including the sections
entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
We
are a Phase 3 clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing targeted, locally administered and prolonged-release therapeutics
using our proprietary Polymer-Lipid Encapsulation matriX, or PLEX, technology. Our product candidates are designed to address diseases
with high unmet medical needs by pairing our PLEX technology with drugs already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or
FDA, or innovative drug candidates to achieve a novel therapeutic effect. Our PLEX technology is designed to deliver drugs directly to
targeted treated sites in the body at predetermined release rates and predetermined durations ranging from several days to several months.
We believe that our PLEX technology and product candidates have the potential to significantly improve the management of a variety of
medical conditions, including surgical site infections, or SSIs, and cancer. Our lead product candidate, D-PLEX100,
is currently in a pivotal Phase 3 confirmatory trial, SHIELD II, for the potential approval
for prevention of SSIs in patients undergoing abdominal colorectal surgery with large incisions. D-PLEX100 pairs
our novel proprietary PLEX technology with doxycycline, a first-line, broad spectrum and FDA-approved antibiotic. D-PLEX100 is
administered directly into the surgical site during surgery and provides a prolonged and continuous release of the broad-spectrum antibiotic,
resulting in high local concentration of the drug for a period of 30 days for the prevention of SSIs, including SSIs caused by standard
of care antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Infections resulting from surgery can be fatal and create a significant public health burden despite
the extensive use of systemically administered antibiotics both pre- and post-operatively and other measures taken to reduce infection
risk in the intra-operative setting. In addition to our lead program D-PLEX100, our pipeline
includes an early-stage oncology program, OncoPLEX, PolyPid’s lead intra-tumoral cancer therapy drug candidate. OncoPLEX utilizes
our PLEX technology to provide controlled local exposure to docetaxel, one of the most widely used chemotherapy agents, directly at the
tumor site for several weeks. The OncoPLEX intra-tumoral cancer therapy program has been evaluated successfully in various animal tumor
models, both as adjuvant and neoadjuvant, including murine colon carcinoma, melanoma and
glioblastoma animal models.

RISK
FACTORS
Investing in our securities

this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, in light of your particular
investment objectives and financial circumstances. The risks so described are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks not presently

of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any
of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The discussion of risks includes or refers to forward-looking statements;
you should read the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements discussed elsewhere in this prospectus.

into by or on behalf of our company in which any director shall be in any way interested, be avoided, nor, other than as required under
the Companies Law, shall any director be liable to account to our company for any profit arising from any such office or place of profit
or realized by any such contract or arrangement by reason only of such director’s holding that office or of the fiduciary relations
thereby established, but the nature of his or her interest, as well as any material fact or document, must be disclosed by him at the
meeting of the Board at which the contract or arrangement is first considered, if his or her interest then exists, or, in any other case,
at no later than the first meeting of the Board after the acquisition of his or her interest.
Rights of the Shares
Our Ordinary Shares confer
upon the holders thereof:
|
● |
equal right to attend and to vote at all of our general meetings, whether regular or special, with each Ordinary Share entitling the holder thereof, which attends the meeting and participates in the voting, either in person or by a proxy or by a written ballot, to one vote; |
|
|
|
|
● |
equal right to participate in distribution of dividends, if any, whether payable in cash or in bonus shares, in distribution of assets or in any other distribution, on a per share pro rata basis; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
equal right to participate, upon our dissolution, in the distribution of our assets legally available for distribution, on a per share pro rata basis. |
Election of Directors
Pursuant
to our amended and restated articles of association, our directors are elected solely at an annual general meeting of our shareholders
and serve on the Board until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders following his or her appointment, or until they cease
to act as Board members pursuant to the provisions of our amended and restated articles of association or any applicable law. The Board
may at any time and from time to time appoint any person as a director to fill a vacancy (whether such vacancy is due to a director no
longer serving or due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number of eleven, as stated in our amended and restated
articles of association). In the event of one or more such vacancies in the Board, the continuing directors may continue to act in every
matter, provided, however, that if they number less than the minimum number of five, as provided in our amended and restated articles
of association, they may only act in an emergency or to fill the office of director which has become vacant up to a number equal to the
minimum number of five. The office of a director that was appointed by the Board to fill any vacancy shall only be for the remaining period
of time during which the director whose service has ended was filled would have held office. We are not currently required to have external
directors serving on Board, based on an exemption that we have elected to be governed by under the Companies Law regulations.
Annual and Special Meetings
Under Israeli law, we are required
to hold an annual general meeting of our shareholders once every calendar year, at such time and place which shall be determined by the
Board, which must be no later than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting. All meetings other than the annual
general meeting of shareholders are referred to as special general meetings. The Board may call special meetings whenever it sees fit
and upon the request of: (a) any two of our directors or such number of directors equal to one quarter of the directors then at office;
and/or (b) one or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, (i) 5% or more of our outstanding issued shares and 1% of our outstanding
voting power or (ii) 5% or more of our outstanding voting power, or the Non Exempted Holding. However, under a new exemption applicable
as of March 12, 2024, the board of directors of an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside of Israel, shall convene a special
meeting at the request of one or more shareholders holding at least 10% of the issued and outstanding share capital instead of 5% in the
past, and at least 1% of the voting rights in the company, or one or more shareholders holding at least 10% of the voting rights in the
company, provided that if the applicable law as applicable to companies incorporated in the country which the Company is listed for trade,
establishes a right to demand convening of such a meeting for those holding a percentage of holdings lower than 10%, then the Non Exempted
Holding shall apply. Since our shares are listed for trade under U.S. law, such exemption will apply to us.
Subject
to the provisions of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder, shareholders entitled to participate and vote at general
meetings are the shareholders of record on a date to be decided by the Board, which may be between four and 60 days prior to the date
of the meeting. Resolutions regarding the following matters must be passed at a general meeting of our shareholders:
|
● |
amendments to our amended and restated articles of association; |
|
● |
the exercise of the Board’s powers by a general meeting if the Board’s is unable to exercise its powers and the exercise of any of its powers is required for our company’s proper management; |
|
● |
appointment or termination of our auditors; |
|
● |
appointment of directors (other than in the cases specified in our amended and restated articles of association); |
|
● |
approval of acts and transactions requiring general meeting approval pursuant to the provisions of the Companies Law and any other applicable law; |
|
● |
increases or reductions of our authorized share capital; and |
|
● |
a merger (as such term is defined in the Companies Law). |
Notices
The Companies Law requires
that a notice of any annual or special general meeting be provide to shareholders at least 21 days prior to the meeting, and if the agenda
of the meeting includes certain matters prescribed under the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereafter, among others, the
appointment or removal of directors, the approval of transactions with office holders or interested or related parties, or an approval
of a merger, notice must be provided at least 35 days prior to such meeting.
Quorum
As
permitted under the Companies Law and our amended and restated articles of association, the quorum required for our general meetings consists
of at least two shareholders present in person, by proxy, written ballot or voting by means of electronic voting system, who hold or represent
between them in the aggregate at least twenty five percent (25%) of the voting power of the Company. If within half an hour of the time
set forth for the general meeting a quorum is not present, the general meeting shall stand adjourned either (i) to the same day of the
following week, at the same hour and in the same place (ii) to such other date, time and place as prescribed in the notice to the shareholders
and in such adjourned meeting or (iii) to such day and at such time and place as the chairperson of the general meeting shall determine
(which may be earlier or later than the date pursuant to clause (i) above). If no quorum is present within half an hour of the time arranged,
any number of shareholders participating in the meeting, shall constitute a quorum.
Access to Corporate Records
Under the Companies Law, shareholders
are provided access to: minutes of our general meetings; our shareholders register and principal shareholders register, articles of association
and annual audited financial statements; and any document that we are required by law to file publicly with the Israeli Registrar of Companies
or the Israel Securities Authority. These documents are publicly available and may be found and inspected at the Israeli Registrar of
Companies. In addition, shareholders may request to be provided with any document related to an action or transaction requiring shareholder
approval under the related party transaction provisions of the Companies Law. We may deny this request if we believe it has not been made
in good faith or if such denial is necessary to protect our interest or protect a trade secret or patent.
Adoption of Resolutions
Except as required by the Companies
Law or our amended and restated articles of association, a resolution of the shareholders shall be adopted if approved by the holders
of a simple majority of the voting power represented at the general meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon, as one class, and
disregarding abstentions from the count of the voting power present and voting. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a resolution
with respect to a matter or action for which the Companies Law prescribes a higher majority or pursuant to which a provision requiring
a higher majority would have been deemed to have been incorporated into our amended and restated articles of association, but resolutions
with respect to which the Companies Law allows our amended and restated articles of association to provide otherwise, shall be adopted
by a simple majority of the voting power represented at the general meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon, as one class, and
disregarding abstentions from the count of the voting power present and voting.
Changing Rights Attached to Shares
If at any time the share capital
of our company is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class, unless otherwise provided by the Companies
Law or our amended and restated articles of association, may be modified or cancelled by the Company by a resolution of the general meeting
of the holders of all shares as one class, without any required separate resolution of any class of shares.
The
enlargement of an existing class of shares or the issuance of additional shares thereof, shall not be deemed to modify the rights attached
to the previously issued shares of such class or of any other class, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the shares.
Limitations on the Rights to Own Ordinary Shares
There are no limitations on the right to own our
securities.
Provisions Restricting Change in Control of the Company
There
are no specific provisions in our amended and restated articles of association that would have an effect of delaying, deferring or preventing
a change in control of us or that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving us (or
our subsidiaries). However, as described below, certain provisions of the Companies Law may have such effect.
The
Companies Law includes provisions that allow a merger transaction and requires that each company that is a party to the merger have the
transaction approved by its board of directors and, unless certain requirements described under the Companies Law are met, a vote of the
majority of its shareholders, and, in the case of the target company, also a majority vote of each class of its shares. For purposes of
the shareholder vote of each party, unless a court rules otherwise, the merger will not be deemed approved if shares representing a majority
of the voting power present at the shareholders meeting and which are not held by the other party to the merger (or by any person or group
of persons acting in concert who holds 25% or more of the voting power or the right to appoint 25% or more of the directors of the other
party) vote against the merger. If, however, the merger involves a merger with a company’s own controlling shareholder or if the
controlling shareholder has a personal interest in the merger, then the merger is instead subject to the same Special Majority (as defined
below) approval that governs all extraordinary transactions with controlling shareholders. Upon the request of a creditor of either party
to the proposed merger, the court may delay or prevent the merger if it concludes that there exists a reasonable concern that, as a result
of the merger, the surviving company will be unable to satisfy the obligations of any of the parties to the merger, and may further give
instructions to secure the rights of creditors. In addition, a merger may not be completed unless at least (1) 50 days have passed from
the time that the requisite proposals for approval of the merger were filed with the Israeli Registrar of Companies by each merging company
and (2) 30 days have passed since the merger was approved by the shareholders of each merging company.
The term “Special Majority”
is defined in the Companies Law as:
| ● | at least a majority of the shares
held by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and do not have personal interest in the merger (excluding a personal interest
that did not result from the shareholder’s relationship with the controlling shareholder) have voted in favor of the proposal (shares
held by abstaining shareholders shall not be considered); or |
| ● | the total number of shares voted
against the merger, does not exceed 2% of the aggregate voting rights of the company. |
The
Companies Law also provides that an acquisition of shares in an Israeli public company must be made by means of a “special”
tender offer if as a result of the acquisition (1) the purchaser would become a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company,
unless there is already another holder of at least 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (2) the purchaser would become
a holder of 45% or more of the voting rights in the company, unless there is already a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in
the company. These requirements do not apply if, in general, the acquisition (1) was made in a private placement that received shareholders’
approval, subject to certain conditions, (2) was from a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company which resulted in the
acquirer becoming a holder of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company, or (3) was from a holder of more than 45% of the voting
rights in the company which resulted in the acquirer becoming a holder of more than 45% of the voting rights in the company. A “special”
tender offer must be extended to all shareholders. In general, a “special” tender offer may be consummated only if (1) at
least 5% of the voting power attached to the company’s outstanding shares will be acquired by the offeror and (2) the offer is accepted
by a majority of the offerees who notified the company of their position in connection with such offer (excluding the offeror, controlling
shareholders, holders of 25% or more of the voting rights in the company or anyone on their behalf, or any person having a personal interest
in the acceptance of the tender offer). If a special tender offer is accepted, then the purchaser or any person or entity controlling
it or under common control with the purchaser or such controlling person or entity may not make a subsequent tender offer for the purchase
of shares of the target company and may not enter into a merger with the target company for a period of one year from the date of the
offer, unless the purchaser or such person or entity undertook to effect such an offer or merger in the initial special tender offer.
However, under a new exemption
applicable as of March 12, 2024, the aforesaid limitations do not apply for an Israeli company whose shares are listed outside of Israel,
provided that the applicable law as applicable to companies incorporated in the country which the company is listed for trade provide
a restriction on the acquisition of control of any proportion of the company or that the acquisition of control of any proportion requires
the purchaser to also offer a purchase offer to shareholders from among the public.
If,
as a result of an acquisition of shares, the acquirer will hold more than 90% of an Israeli public company’s outstanding shares,
the acquisition must be made by means of a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares. In general, if less than 5% of the outstanding
shares are not tendered in the tender offer and more than half of the offerees who have no personal interest in the offer tendered their
shares, all the shares that the acquirer offered to purchase will be transferred to it by operation of law. However, a tender offer will
also be accepted if the shareholders who do not accept the offer hold less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the
company or of the applicable class of shares. Shareholders may request appraisal rights in connection with a full tender offer for a period
of six months following the consummation of the tender offer, but the acquirer is entitled to stipulate, under certain conditions, that
tendering shareholders will forfeit such appraisal rights.
Borrowing Powers
Pursuant to the Companies Law
and our amended and restated articles of association, the Board may exercise all powers and take all actions that are not required under
law or under the Company’s amended and restated articles to be exercised or taken by the shareholders, including the power to borrow
money for company purposes.
Changes in the Company’s Capital
The general meeting may, by
a simple majority vote of the shareholders attending the general meeting and subject to the provisions of the Companies Law:
|
● |
Increase in our registered share capital by the creation of new shares from the existing class or a new class, as determined by the general meeting; |
|
|
|
|
● |
cancel any registered share capital which has not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person; |
|
|
|
|
● |
consolidate and divide all or any of our share capital into shares of larger nominal value than our existing shares; |
|
|
|
|
● |
subdivide our existing shares or any of them, our share capital or any of it, into shares of smaller nominal value than is fixed; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
reduce our share capital and any fund reserved for capital redemption in any manner, and with and subject to any incident authorized, and consent required, by the Companies Law. |
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We may sell the securities
being offered hereby in one or more of the following methods from time to time:
|
● |
a block trade (which may involve crosses) in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
● |
purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus; |
|
● |
exchange distributions and/or secondary distributions; |
|
● |
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; |
|
● |
to one or more underwriters for resale to the public or to investors; |
| ● | in an “at the market offering,” within the meaning
of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market, on an exchange or otherwise; |
| ● | directly to purchasers as an “equity line of credit”, as
described below; |
| ● | transactions not involving market
makers or established trading markets, including direct sales or privately negotiated transactions; or |
|
● |
through a combination of these methods of sale. |
The securities that we distribute
by any of these methods may be sold, in one or more transactions, at:
|
● |
a fixed price or prices, which may be changed; |
|
● |
market prices prevailing at the time of sale; |
|
● |
prices related to prevailing market prices; or |
We will set forth in a prospectus
supplement the terms of the offering of securities, including:
|
● |
the name or names of any agents, dealers or underwriters; |
|
● |
the purchase price of the securities being offered and the proceeds we will receive from the sale; |
|
● |
any over-allotment options under which underwriters may purchase additional securities from us; |
|
● |
any agency fees or underwriting discounts and other items constituting agents’ or underwriters’ compensation; |
|
● |
the public offering price; |
|
● |
any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers; and |
|
● |
any securities exchanges or markets on which such securities may be listed. |
We may also sell securities
pursuant to an “equity line of credit”. In such event, we will enter into an ordinary shares purchase agreement with the purchaser
to be named therein, which will be described in a Form 6-K that we will file with the SEC. In that Form 6-K, we will describe the total
amount of securities that we may require the purchaser to purchase under the purchase agreement and the other terms of purchase, and any
rights that the purchaser is granted to purchase securities from us. In addition to our issuance of ordinary shares to the equity line
purchaser pursuant to the purchase agreement, this prospectus (and the applicable prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to
the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part) also covers the resale of those shares from time to time by the equity
line purchaser to the public. The equity line purchaser will be considered an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section
2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Its resales may be effected through a number of methods, including without limitation, ordinary brokerage
transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers and block trades in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt
to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction. The equity
line purchaser will be bound by various anti-manipulation rules of the SEC and may not, for example, engage in any stabilization activity
in connection with its resales of our securities and may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person
to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
If underwriters are used in
the sale, they will acquire the securities for their own account and may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions
at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase
the securities will be subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable underwriting agreement. We may offer the securities to the
public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. Subject to certain
conditions, the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities offered by the prospectus supplement, other than securities
covered by any over-allotment option. Any public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers
may change from time to time. We may use underwriters with whom we have a material relationship. We will describe in the prospectus supplement,
naming the underwriter, the nature of any such relationship.
We may sell securities directly
or through agents we designate from time to time. We will name any agent involved in the offering and sale of securities and we will describe
any commissions we will pay the agent in the prospectus supplement. Unless the prospectus supplement states otherwise, our agent will
act on a best-efforts basis for the period of its appointment.
We may also sell securities
directly to one or more purchasers without using underwriters or agents.
Underwriters, dealers and agents
that participate in the distribution of the securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act and any discounts or commissions
they receive from us and any profit on their resale of the securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the
Securities Act. We will identify in the applicable prospectus supplement any underwriters, dealers or agents and will describe their compensation.
We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to indemnify them against specified civil liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act. Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary
course of their businesses.
In connection with an offering,
an underwriter may purchase and sell securities in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions
and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of securities
than they are required to purchase in the offering.
Accordingly, to cover these
short sales positions or to otherwise stabilize or maintain the price of the securities, the underwriters may bid for or purchase securities
in the open market and may impose penalty bids. If penalty bids are imposed, selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other
broker-dealers participating in the offering are reclaimed if securities previously distributed in the offering are repurchased, whether
in connection with stabilization transactions or otherwise. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market
price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. The impositions of a penalty bid may also
affect the price of the securities to the extent that it discourages resale of the securities. The magnitude or effect of any stabilization
or other transactions is uncertain. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq Capital Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may
be discontinued at any time.

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are incorporated under the
laws of the State of Israel. Service of process upon us and upon our directors and officers, most of whom reside outside of the United
States, may be difficult to obtain within the United States. Furthermore, because substantially all of our assets and the vast majority
of our directors and officers are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us or any of
our directors and officers may not be collectible within the United States.
We have been informed by our
legal counsel in Israel, Sullivan & Worcester Tel-Aviv (Har-Even & Co.), that it may be difficult to assert U.S. securities law
claims in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws
because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim,
if U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact which can be a time-consuming and costly
process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law.
Subject to specified time limitations
and legal procedures, an Israeli court may enforce a United States judgment in a civil matter, which, subject to certain exceptions, is
non-appealable, including judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and including
a monetary or compensatory judgment in a non-civil matter, provided that among other things:
|
● |
the judgment was obtained after due process before a court of competent jurisdiction, according to the laws of the state in which the judgment is given and the rules of private international law currently prevailing in Israel; |
|
● |
the judgment is final and is not subject to any right of appeal; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the prevailing law of the foreign state in which the judgment was rendered allows for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts; however, the court may enforce a foreign judgment, even without reciprocity, based on the request of the Attorney General, under certain circumstances; |
|
● |
the liabilities under the judgment are enforceable
according to the laws of the State of Israel and the judgment and the enforcement of the civil liabilities set forth in the judgment is
not contrary to the law or public policy in Israel nor likely to impair the security or sovereignty of Israel;
|
|
● |
the judgment was not obtained by fraud, there was reasonable opportunity for the defendant to present their case, the judgment was given by an authorized court under the applicable international private law rules in Israel, and the judgement does not conflict with any other valid judgments in the same matter between the same parties; |
|
● |
an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the lawsuit is instituted in the foreign court; |
|
|
|
|
● |
the judgment is enforceable according to the law of the foreign state in which it was granted; and |
|
|
|

If a foreign judgment is declared
enforceable by an Israeli court, it generally will be payable in Israeli currency. The conversion to Israeli currency will be based on
the latest official exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel before the payment date. However, the obligated party will fulfill its
duty for the judgment even if they choose to make the payment in the same foreign currency, subject to the laws governing the foreign
currency applicable at that time.
Pending collection, the amount
of the judgment of an Israeli court stated in Israeli currency ordinarily will be linked to the Israeli consumer price index plus interest
at the annual statutory rate set by Israeli regulations prevailing at the time. Judgment creditors must bear the risk of unfavorable exchange
rates.
