PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS | SUBJECT TO COMPLETION | DATED May 29, 2020 |
OMNIQ Corp.
We are registering an aggregate of 1,725,000 shares (the “Resale Shares”) of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) of OMNIQ Corp. (f/k/a Quest Solution, Inc.) (referred to herein as “we”,“us”, “our”, “OMNIQ”, “Registrant”, or the “Company”) for resale by certain of our shareholders identified in this prospectus (the “Selling Shareholders”). 891,667 of the shares being registered are issuable upon exercise of warrants recently issued to the Selling Shareholders in connection with a private offering in April, 2019 (the “Warrants”). Please see “Selling Shareholders” beginning at page 9.
The Selling Shareholders may offer to sell the Resale Shares at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at varying prices or at negotiated prices, and will pay all brokerage commissions and discounts attributable to the sale of such shares. The Selling Shareholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the offering of their Resale Shares. The Company would receive the proceeds from any cash exercise of the Warrants.
The Resale Shares may be sold by the Selling Shareholders to or through underwriters or dealers, directly to purchasers or through agents designated from time to time. For additional information regarding the methods of sale you should refer to the section entitled “Plan of Distribution” in this Prospectus.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “OMQS.” On May 20, 2020, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB was $5.40.

Description of Business
We, together with our wholly owned subsidiaries, were incorporated in 1973. Since incorporation, we have been involved in various lines of business.
We are a provider of products and solutions to two main markets, Supply Chain Management and Smart/Safe City. We have recently expanded our product solutions, which are based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms and offer Computer Vision applications. Our newest product offerings have not only established us as an innovative and technological company, but also one that is, able to offer its fortune 1,000 customers an end-to-end solution.

Once a company selects the product, sales are generally highly repeatable on a regular basis.

Inspired by time-critical “friend or foe” decision-making processes, our patented algorithms are based on a combination of cognitive science and machine learning-based pattern recognition technology which is arbitrated through a multi-layered decision-making process that offers both speed and accuracy.
Our experienced team of consulting and integration professionals guide companies through the entire development and deployment process, from selecting technology to the successful company-wide rollout of a customized solution that fits a company’s unique requirements. After performing a thorough technical evaluation of the client’s current operations and specific operational problems, our team determines the optimal hardware and software solutions to optimize the client’s operational workflow. We deliver, ongoing services provided throughout the deployment process and throughout the entire product life cycle. We also deliver full installation services for all mobile, data collection computers and printing equipment including full staging and kitting of the equipment.
We have been successful in delivering mission critical mobile computing and data collection solutions to Fortune 1000 companies for over two decades. The requirements and needs of our customers continue to evolve as they require new mobile and wireless technologies and services to make their business more competitive and profitable. The result is a continuous flow of opportunities for us to assist customers to evaluate, choose, implement, and support the right mobile and data collection solutions. As we focus on what we do best, we believe that there is more than adequate market size, growth and opportunity available to us to succeed.
Core to the solutions offered by us is a full suite of configurable packaged software solutions that were internally developed and provide customers with unique solutions with significant business Return on Investment (“ROI”), including:
Order Entry:Software designed to increase productivity in the field. Remote workers increasingly demand rapid access to real-time information and up to date data to facilitate and streamline their job functions in the field for which we believe our Order Entry Software is the answer.
DSD and Route:Software packages designed to increase overall productivity. In the fourth quarter of 2016, we introduced the next generation of Direct Store Delivery (DSD) and Proof of Delivery software called Route EdgeTM. The OMNIQ DSD and Route EdgeTM software packages include proprietary applications for portable devices, computer servers and management dashboards that extend the power of existing systems out to field associates to enhance routing and delivery efficiency.
Intelligent OrderEntry:Adds intelligence to aging order entry systems to maximize profits. The hand held industry is a vital link in getting remote orders from the field to corporate. Our Intelligent Order Entry Software adds this capability to aging order entry systems.
iTrack:Track Device Deployment. iTrack, an Internet Tracking System, is a management tool that tracks the deployment of hardware devices in the field and their repair history.
Warehouse:Enhancesefficiency in distribution and manufacturing environments.The warehouse is a collection of applications for portable devices that we believe extends the power of your existing system out to the warehouse floor and dock doors.
Proof of Delivery:Enhances document delivery performance. We offer proof-of-delivery capabilities as part of our Mobility Suite that we believe gives companies an edge over competitors by improving customer service.
WTMiP:Extends business beyond four walls. WTMiP provides the link between corporate and the mobile worker. WTMiP servers allow files and data to seamlessly synchronize between the corporate host and laptops, handheld devices and Windows CE or Windows Mobile devices.

Our partnership with Hyperion Partners LLC and wireless carriers allows us to offer mobility solutions to our customers on platforms that extend the market into new mobile applications that previously were not being automated.
Media and Label Business:Repeatable easy order online purchasing portal. The largest segment of data collection opportunity for us is the barcode label market which provides ongoing and repeatable purchasing business. We intend to continue in the label business in the United States to drive business growth and increased margins.
Target Markets
The two markets we serve are Smart/Safe City and Supply Chain Management. Our groundbreaking AI-based vision solutions are currently in use for sensitive Homeland Security anti-terror projects and discerning customers within the access control, airport, border crossing, municipality safety and parking industries. We seek to utilize our expertise and to offer end-to-end software solutions in markets which we believe provide the greatest opportunity to increase margins.
Within the Supply Chain Management market, we believe we can further develop our existing customer base that is in need of replacing their legacy systems with a new go-to-market strategy that leverages our field sales and system resources, telemarketing, customer portals and vertical market and barcode label specialists. We also believe that our base of industry leading customers for our barcode label and ribbon (media) products in the manufacturing, distribution, transportation and logistics, retail and healthcare sectors, which sectors are at the core of our business are also ideal candidates for our machine learning technology. We have been successful in integrating mission critical mobile computing and data collection solutions for Fortune 1000 companies for over two decades. The requirements and needs of our customers continue to evolve as they require new mobile and wireless technologies and services to make their business more competitive and profitable. The result is a continuous flow of opportunities for us to assist customers to evaluate, choose, implement, and support the right mobile and data collection solutions. As we focus on what we do best, we believe that there is more than adequate market size, growth and opportunity available to us to succeed.
We believe that integrating our new patented and proprietary AI technology into our existing Supply Chain offerings will allow for automated logistics monitoring and optimization, creating operational efficiencies at the higher margins associated with the AI value-creation paradigm for both OMNIQ and its fortune 1000 clientele.
Competitive overview
The mobile system integration market is characterized by a limited number of large competitors and numerous smaller niche players. OMNIQ typically pursues larger accounts and national customers, competing most often with the larger channel partners, including Stratix, Peak Technologies, Lowry, and Barcoding Inc. For specific solutions, the Company also competes with niche players that are often focused on a single industry. Hardware sales are often pressured by competition from online retailers, but the Company believes that its consultative, integrated solutions approach is a clear differentiator for most prospective customers.
Sales Strategy
The Company’s current direct sales teams are supported by systems engineers averaging over twenty (20) years of experience in the mobile industry. The sales organization’s growth in reach mirrors the Company’s addition of new products and services. Sales team members are organized by industry areas of opportunity, areas of expertise and territory. OMNIQ’s sales teams are organized to address national accounts offering a broad array of unique solutions for key lines of business applications, which allows for upsell and cross sell opportunities to our clients. For the barcode label (media) business, OMNIQ utilizes a specialty sales force as well as action as resellers and distributors of OMNIQ manufactured label products to serve the market.
Sales persons are supported internally by sales support personnel who coordinate quotes and logistics and by members of the systems engineering group and software teams.
The normal sales cycle is one (1) to six (6) months, and typically involves the development of a scope of work and preparation of a ROI analysis. OMNIQ prepares templates for this purpose which reduces the sales cycle. The analyses and proposals include information on leasing and other financing options, which helps differentiate the Company from its competitors. The label business sales cycles are shorter with purchases made more frequently on a transactional basis.

Summary of the Offering
April 2019 Private Placement
On April 4, 2019, the Company entered into a form of Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, on April 9, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company sold an aggregate, with the Conversions included, of $5,000,000 of units (the “Units”) resulting in gross proceeds of $5,000,000, before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses (the “Offering”). The individual Unit purchase price was $6.00. Each Unit is comprised of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, and, as a result of the Offering, the Company issued 833,334 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 833,334 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price equal to $7.00 per Warrant Share, which Warrants are exercisable for a period of five and one-half years from the issuance date. Both Shai Lustgarten, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Carlos J. Nissenson, a consultant to and principal stockholder of the Company, participated in the Offering by converting $200,000 each of unpaid principal owed to them from the HTS acquisition (the “Conversions”), by the Company in exchange for Shares and Warrants on the same terms as all other Purchasers. With the Conversions included, the Offering resulted in gross proceeds of $5,000,000. As a result of the Conversions, a principal amount of $150,000 is owed to each of Walefar and Campbeltown, respectively under the note issued to them as partial consideration in the sale of HTS Image Processing to the Company on October 5, 2018.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a great deal of risk. Before deciding to purchase our securities, careful consideration should be made of the following factors as well as other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including any risks in the section entitled “Risk Factors” contained in any supplements to this prospectus, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and in our subsequent filings with the SEC. There are many risks that affect our business and results of operations, some of which are beyond our control. Our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed by any of these risks. This could cause the trading price of our securities to decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also affect our business and results of operations.
An occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations and ability to raise capital.
The occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations. A pandemic typically results in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this may limit access to our facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may impact our operations, financial condition. Also, the pandemic may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, but if we or any of the third parties with whom we engage, including the suppliers, clinical trial sites, regulators and other third parties with whom we conduct business, were to experience shutdowns or other business disruptions, our ability to conduct our business in the manner and on the timelines presently planned could be materially and negatively impacted. Furthermore, if any of our key employees became ill or died as a result of COVID-19, it could negatively impact our business. It is also possible that global health concerns such as this one could disproportionately impact the clinical sites in which we conduct any of our clinical trials, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and our results of operation and financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic, may also negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise capital.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and other federal securities laws. The reader should understand that several factors, including the risk factors described under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus, any supplements to this prospectus and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and in our subsequent filings with the SEC govern whether any forward-looking statement contained herein will be or can be achieved. Any of those factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected herein. These forward-looking statements include plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to the products and the future economic performance of the Company. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology.
Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, future business decisions, and the time and money required to successfully complete development projects, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in any of the forward-looking statements contained herein will be realized. Based on actual experience and business development, the Company may alter its marketing, capital expenditure plans or other budgets, which may, in turn, affect the Company’s results of operations. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included therein, the inclusion of any such statement should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will receive no proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock offered by the Selling Shareholders. We would receive $6,241,667 in proceeds from any cash exercise of the Warrants for which the underlying Resale Shares are being included. Any proceeds from the exercise of such Warrants will be used for working capital purposes.
SELLING SHAREHOLDERS
The common stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders are those previously issued to the Selling Shareholders, and those issuable to the Selling Shareholders, upon exercise of the warrants. For additional information regarding the issuances of those shares of common stock and warrants, see “April 2019 Private Placement” in the “Summary of the Offering” section above. We are registering the shares of common stock in order to permit the Selling Shareholders to offer the shares for resale from time to time. Except for the ownership of the shares of common stock and the warrants, the Selling Shareholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.
The table below lists the Selling Shareholders and other information regarding the beneficial ownership of the shares of common stock by each of the Selling Shareholders. The second column lists the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each Selling Shareholder, based on its ownership of the shares of common stock and warrants, as of July 2, 2019, assuming exercise of the warrants held by the Selling Shareholders on that date, without regard to any limitations on exercises.
The third column lists the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus by the Selling Shareholders.
In accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with the Selling Shareholders, this prospectus generally covers the resale of the sum of (i) the number of shares of common stock issued to the Selling Shareholders in the Company’s April 2019 private placement, and (ii) the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the related warrants, determined as if the outstanding warrants were exercised in full as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration statement was initially filed with the SEC, each as of the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination and all subject to adjustment as provided in the registration right agreement, without regard to any limitations on the exercise of the warrants. The fourth column assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Shareholders pursuant to this prospectus.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
General
We are authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. We have designated 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock, 1 share of preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock, and 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock.
As of May 21, 2020, a total of 4,107,230 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding and 4,828,530 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not expressly prohibit cumulative voting. The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets that are legally available for distribution. The holders of our common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights.
The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock, which may be designated solely by action of the Board of Directors and issued in the future.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “OMQS.” We intend to apply to have our common stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market effective upon completion of this offering. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved.
The transfer agent of our common stock is Equity Stock Transfer. Their address is 110 Greene Street, Suite 403, New York, NY 10012.
Stock Options and Outstanding Warrants
As of July 1, 2019, we had reserved 1,006,050 shares of our common stock for issuance pursuant to outstanding stock options, at a weighted average price of $3.80 per share.
As of July 1, 2019, we had reserved 275,000 shares of our common stock for issuance pursuant to outstanding warrants, at a weighted average price of $4.60 per share. This does not include the 891,667 warrants issued in the private placement for which the underlying shares of Common Stock are registered herein.
As of July 1, 2019, we had reserved 241,427 shares of our common stock for issuance upon conversion of outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series, including the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock described below. The board of directors also has the authority to fix the designations, voting powers, preferences, privileges and relative rights and the limitations of any series of preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption and liquidation preferences, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of the common stock. The board of directors, without stockholder approval, can issue preferred stock with voting, conversion or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock could thus be issued quickly with terms that could delay or prevent a change of control of us or make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may decrease the market price of the common stock and may adversely affect the voting, economic and other rights of the holders of common stock.
Series A Preferred Stock
The board of directors has designated 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock. No shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding as of May 22, 2020. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder to 250 votes.
Series B Preferred Stock
The board of directors has designated 1 share of preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. No shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding as of May 22, 2020.
Series C Preferred Stock
The board of directors has designated 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series C Preferred Stock. 4,828,530 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding as of July 1, 2019.

As part of a debt settlement agreement effective December 30, 2017, 1,685,000 shares were issued with the quarterly dividend at a rate of $0.06 per share per annum were waived for a period of 24 months, with no dividends being accrued or paid. Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at the rate of 20 Series C Preferred Shares per one share of common stock.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law and Our Charter Documents
The following is a summary of certain provisions of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the corporate law of Delaware and our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws.
Our Charter Documents. Our charter documents include provisions that may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control or an unsolicited acquisition proposal that a stockholder might consider favorable, including a proposal that might result in the payment of a premium over the market price for the shares held by our stockholders. Certain of these provisions are summarized in the following paragraphs.
Effects of Authorized but Unissued Common Stock.One of the effects of the existence of authorized but unissued common stock may be to enable our board of directors to make more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the board of directors was to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, such shares could be issued by the board of directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group, by putting a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent board of directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.
Cumulative Voting. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would allow holders of less than a majority of the stock to elect some directors.
Vacancies.Our bylaws provide that all vacancies may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum.
Special Meeting of Stockholders. Our bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called by the chairman of the board of directors, the chief executive officer, or the president (in the absence of the chief executive officer) or by resolution of the board of directors or by the secretary at the request in writing of stockholders owning a majority of the voting power of the outstanding voting stock.
Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals. Our bylaws establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of directors or a committee thereof.
Amendment of Bylaws. Our directors are expressly authorized to amend our bylaws.

Each Selling Shareholder (the “Selling Shareholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal Trading Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
| ● | ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker dealer solicits purchasers; |
| | |
| ● | block trades in which the broker dealer 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 dealer as principal and resale by the broker dealer for its account; |
| | |
| ● | an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange; |
| | |
| ● | privately negotiated transactions; |
| | |
| ● | settlement of short sales; |
| | |
| ● | in transactions through broker dealers that agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security; |
| | |
| ● | through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; |
| | |
| ● | a combination of any such methods of sale; or |
| | |
| ● | any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law. |
The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.
In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.
Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

EXPERTS
The audited consolidated financial statements of OMNIQ Corp. and its subsidiaries, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 included in this prospectus, and elsewhere in the registration statement on Form S-8 have been so included in reliance upon the report of Haynie & Company for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the report of RBSM LLP for the year ended December 31, 2018, upon the authority of said firms as experts in accounting and auditing.
Change in Accountants
On June 6, 2019, RBSM LLP (“RBSM”) notified the Company of its resignation, effective immediately, as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. RBSM served as the auditors of the Company’s financial statements for the period from the Company’s fiscal year end December 31, 2014 through the date of dismissal.
The reports of RBSM on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. RBSM issued a report expressing substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the subsequent interim period through June 5, 2019, there were (i) no disagreements with RBSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of RBSM, would have caused RBSM to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements as defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K in connection with any reports its reports, and (ii) there were no “reportable events” as such term is described in Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
The Company provided RBSM with a copy of the foregoing disclosure, and requested that RBSM furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with such disclosure. A copy of the letter from RBSM addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated as of June 7, 2019 is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 11, 2019.

OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION
The following table sets forth the various costs and expenses payable by us in connection with the sale of the securities being registered. All such costs and expenses shall be borne by us. Except for the SEC registration fee, all the amounts shown are estimates.
| | Amount to be Paid | |
SEC registration fee | | $ | 1,389 | |
Legal fees and expenses | | $ | 35,000 | |
Accounting fees and expenses | | $ | 30,000 | |
Printing and miscellaneous expenses | | $ | 5,000 | |
Total | | $ | 71,389 | |
Our certificate of incorporation contains provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, our directors will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:
| ● | any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders; |
| ● | any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |
| ● | unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or |
| ● | any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. |
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Our bylaws also provide that we are obligated to advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his, her or its actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him, her or it under Delaware law.
We believe that these provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. A stockholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. There is no pending litigation or proceeding naming any of our directors, officers or employees as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer or employee.

| | |
| (ii) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and |
| | |
| (iii) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; |
| | |
| | provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement. |
| (2) | That, for the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed to be the initialbona fide offering thereof. |
| (3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
| | |
| (4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use. |
