Tikcro Technologies Announces Extension of Submission Deadline regarding Liquidating Dividend

TEL AVIV, Israel, April 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Tikcro Technologies Ltd. (in liquidation) (OTC: TIKRF) today announced the extension of the deadline for the submission of documentation with respect to exemption from Israeli withholding in connection with its liquidating dividend, from April 10, 2023 to April 28, 2023, in order to enable additional shareholders to perfect exemptions prior to the dividend payment.

On February 9, 2023, Tikcro declared a liquidating cash dividend in the aggregate amount of $3,017,270, or $0.305 per share, without interest and subject to applicable withholding requirements. The effective date of the entitlement of the dividend is March 2, 2023.

Pursuant to a pre-ruling from the Israeli Tax Authority, certain "street name" shareholders will be able to perfect an exemption from Israeli withholding tax by submitting to their brokers a declaration of non-Israeli residency pursuant to the instructions sent to the shareholders. Other shareholders will be subject to withholding tax at the rate of 25% (or 23% for Israeli corporations), except for certain exempt institutions and for shareholders who deliver a valid withholding tax exemption certificate issued by the Israeli Tax Authority. A copy of the materials sent to shareholders in connection with the dividend may be viewed on Tikcro's website at www.tikcro.com under "Investors—Final Dividend Distribution".

The dividend will be paid as soon as practicable after April 28, 2023, except to shareholders who request a deferral by that date in order to apply to the Israeli Tax Authority for a withholding tax exemption. A deferral can be requested by completing the Election Form sent to shareholders.
