In this regard, we note that the Addendum to the Agreement for Operation and Sale of Digital wallets (Exhibit 10.2) was duly executed as of December 27, 2020 and provided for deferral of the payment for the NIS 330,000 Establishment fee to the first quarter of 2021 and the Annual Registration Fee to May 12, 2021.

Note 7 - Payables and Credit Balances, page 47

Since the unpaid balance of Mr. Shalom's management fee in an amount of NIS 420,000 (commencing May 2020) related to services during 2020, your financial statements should reflect an accrual for such costs. Please revise your 2020 financial statements to accrue for a liability for such costs pursuant to his Management Agreement (Exhibit 10.3). Conform your presentation in Note 10 as appropriate. |
Response: The financial statements in the Amended Registration Statement has been revised in accordance with the comments of the Commission.
