This registration statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register the offer, issuance and sale of an additional 8,021,536 ordinary shares, no par value (“Ordinary Shares’), of Innoviz Technologies Ltd. (the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we” or “us”) issuable by the Registrant to its and/or its subsidiaries’ officers, employees, directors and consultants under the Innoviz Technologies Ltd. 2021 Share Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”).
On April 26, 2021, we filed with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-255511) registering 9,820,588 Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Innoviz Technologies Ltd. 2016 Share Incentive Plan and 19,510,820 Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the 2021 Plan.
On May 24, 2022, we filed with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-265169) registering an additional 1,014,520 Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Registrant’s 2021 Plan.
On March 9, 2023, we filed with the Commission a registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-270416) registering an additional 4,909,261 Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Registrant’s 2021 Plan.
The 2021 Plan provides that the number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan will automatically increase on the first day of each calendar year of 2022 through 2031, to equal to the lesser of (A) 5% of the outstanding shares on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (B) such amount as determined by our board of directors if so determined prior to January 1 of a calendar year; provided, however, that no more than 14,000,000 shares in total may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options, or ISOs, under the 2021 Plan.
The purpose of this Registration Statement is for the Registrant to register an additional 8,021,536 Ordinary Shares issuable under the 2021 Plan effective as of January 1, 2024, representing an increase to the number of Ordinary Shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan in an amount equal to 5% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares as of December 31, 2023.
