Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On September 28, 2026, Silexion Therapeutics Corp
(“Silexion” or the “Company”) entered into an inducement offer letter agreement (the “Inducement
Letter”) with certain holders (each a “Holder”) of 3,216,928 of the Company’s existing series E warrants
to purchase 3,216,928 of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value $0.135 per share (“ordinary shares”) (the “Existing
Warrants”), which were issued in the Company’s public offering completed on August 11, 2026, and which had a five-year
exercise term and an exercise price of $0.65 per share.
Pursuant to the Inducement Letter, the Holders
agreed to exercise for cash their Existing Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,216,928 ordinary shares at a reduced exercise price
of $0.2603 per share in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue new ordinary share purchase warrants (the “New
Warrants”), as described below, to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,433,856 ordinary shares (the “New Warrant Shares”),
at an exercise price of $0.2603 per share. The New Warrants are comprised of 3,216,928 Series F warrants (the “Series F Warrants”)
and 3,216,928 Series G warrants (the “Series G Warrants”), each as further described below. The Company expects to
receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $0.84 million from the exercise of the Existing Warrants by the Holders, before deducting
placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company.
The Company has engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co.,
LLC (the “Placement Agent”) to act as its exclusive placement agent in connection with the transactions contemplated
by the Inducement Letter and has agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received from
the Holders’ exercise of the Existing Warrants, as well as a management fee equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds from the exercise
of the Existing Warrants. Upon exercise for cash of any New Warrants, the Company has agreed in certain circumstances to pay the Placement
Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price paid in cash with respect the exercise of the New Warrants, and a management
fee of 1.0% of the aggregate gross exercise price paid in cash with respect to the New Warrants. The Company has also agreed to issue
to the Placement Agent or its designees warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase up to 225,185 ordinary
shares (representing 7.0% of the Existing Warrants being exercised), which will have the same terms as the New Warrants except the Placement
Agent Warrants will have an exercise price equal to $0.3254 per share (125% of the reduced exercise price paid by the Holders for their
exercise of the Existing Warrants). Similar to the New Warrants, the Placement Agent Warrants will be exercisable beginning upon (and
subject to) the approval by the Company’s shareholders, and until the five-year anniversary of the later of (i) the effective date
of the increase of the Company’s authorized ordinary shares following shareholder approval (the “Authorized Share Increase
Date”) and (ii) the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement (as defined below). Upon exercise for cash of any New Warrants,
the Company has agreed in certain circumstances to issue the Placement Agent warrants representing 7.0% of the ordinary shares underlying
such New Warrants. In addition, the Company has also agreed to pay the Placement Agent up to $25,000 for the fees and expenses of the
Placement Agent’s legal and other out-of-pocket expenses and $5,000 for clearing fees.
The closing of the transactions contemplated pursuant
to the Inducement Letter is expected to occur on or about September 29, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), subject to satisfaction
of customary closing conditions. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from these transactions for general corporate purposes.
The issuance of the ordinary shares underlying
the Existing Warrants have been registered pursuant to an existing registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-298137) which was
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 11, 2026.
The Company also agreed to file a registration
statement on Form S-3 (or other appropriate form if the Company is not then Form S-3 eligible) providing for the resale of the New Warrant
Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the New Warrants (the “Resale Registration Statement”) within thirty
(30) calendar days of the date of the Inducement Letter, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Resale Registration Statement
declared effective by the SEC within sixty (60) calendar days following the date of the Inducement Letter (or within ninety (90) calendar
days following the date of the Inducement Letter in case of “full review” of the Resale Registration Statement by the SEC)
and to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective at all times until no holder of the New Warrants owns any New Warrants or New
Warrant Shares. In the Inducement Letter, the Company agreed not to issue any ordinary shares or ordinary share equivalents or to file
any other registration statement with the SEC (in each case, subject to certain exceptions) for 15 days following the Closing Date. The
Company also agreed not to effect or agree to effect any Variable Rate Transaction (as defined in the Inducement Letter) until one (1)
year after the Closing Date (subject to certain exceptions).
The New Warrants, Placement Agent Warrants, the
New Warrant Shares and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants are being offered and sold pursuant
to an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”). Each of the Holders has represented that it is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of the Securities Act and
has acquired such securities for its own account and has no arrangements or understandings for any distribution thereof. The offer and
sale of the foregoing securities is being made without any form of general solicitation or advertising. The New Warrants, Placement Agent
Warrants, the New Warrant Shares and the ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Agent Warrants have not been registered
under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States
except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act and such applicable state securities laws.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute
an offer to sell or the solicitation to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
Terms of the New Warrants
The following summary of certain terms and provisions
of the New Warrants is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the New Warrants, the form
of which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The following description
of the New Warrants is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
Duration and Exercise Price
Each New Warrant will have an exercise price equal
to $0.2603 per share. The Series F Warrants will expire five years after the later of (i) the Authorized Share Increase Date and (ii)
the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement and the Series G Warrants will expire twenty-four months after the later of (x)
the Authorized Share Increase Date and (y) the effective date of the Resale Registration Statement. The exercise price and number of
New Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of share dividends, share
splits, subsequent rights offerings, pro rata distributions, reorganizations, or similar events affecting the Company’s ordinary
shares and the exercise price.
Exercisability
The New Warrants will be exercisable, at the option
of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the
number of ordinary shares purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below). A holder (together
with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of such holder’s New Warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than
4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the outstanding ordinary shares immediately after exercise, except that upon prior
notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase or decrease the amount of ownership of ordinary shares after exercising
the holder’s New Warrants up to 9.99% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise,
as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the New Warrants, provided that any increase will not be effective
until 61 days following notice to the Company.
Cashless Exercise
If, at the time a holder exercises its New Warrants,
a registration statement registering the resale of the New Warrant Shares by the holder under the Securities Act is not then effective
or available, then in lieu of making the cash payment otherwise contemplated to be made to the Company upon such exercise in payment of
the aggregate exercise price, the holder may elect instead to receive upon such exercise (either in whole or in part), the net number
of ordinary shares determined according to a formula set forth in the New Warrants.
Trading Market
There is no established trading market for the
New Warrants, and the Company does not expect an active trading market to develop. The Company does not intend to apply to list the New
Warrants on any securities exchange or other trading market. Without a trading market, the liquidity of the New Warrants will be extremely
limited.
Rights as a Shareholder
Except as otherwise provided in the New Warrants
or by virtue of the holder’s ownership of ordinary shares, such holder of New Warrants does not have the rights or privileges of
a holder of ordinary shares, including any voting rights, until such holder exercises such holder’s New Warrants. The New Warrants
will provide that the holders of the New Warrants have the right to participate in distributions or dividends paid on ordinary shares.
Fundamental Transactions
If at any time the New Warrants are outstanding,
the Company, either directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the New
Warrants), a holder of New Warrants will be entitled to receive, the number of ordinary shares of the successor or acquiring corporation
or of the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration receivable as a result of the Fundamental
Transaction by such holder of the number of ordinary shares for which the New Warrants are exercisable immediately prior to the Fundamental
Transaction. As an alternative, and at the holder’s option in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, exercisable at any time concurrently
with, or within 30 days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the
applicable fundamental transaction), the Company shall purchase the unexercised portion of the New Warrants from the holder by paying
to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined in the New Warrants) of the remaining unexercised portion
of the New Warrants on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction.
Waivers and Amendments
The New Warrants may be modified or amended or
the provisions of the New Warrants waived with the Company’s and the holder’s written consent.
