ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
 
This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, the selling stockholders identified in this prospectus may offer from time to time up to 3,518,091 shares of our common stock and 2,063,744 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants and options.  This prospectus describes the general manner in which the shares may be offered and sold by the selling stockholders. If necessary, the specific manner in which the shares may be offered and sold will be described in a supplement to this prospectus, which supplement may also add, update or change any of the information contained in this prospectus. To the extent there is a conflict between the information contained in this prospectus and the prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information in the prospectus supplement, provided that if any statement in one of these documents is inconsistent with a statement in another document having a later date—for example, a document incorporated by reference in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement—the statement in the document having the later date modifies or supersedes the earlier statement.

OUR COMPANY
 
This summary highlights information contained in the documents incorporated herein by reference. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus, and our other filings with the SEC, including those filings incorporated herein by reference, carefully, including the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
 
We are a pharmaceutical company currently engaged in the research and development of innovative pharmaceutical solutions, including an orally ingestible insulin capsule to be used for the treatment of individuals with diabetes, and the use of orally ingestible capsules or pills for delivery of other polypeptides.
 
Oral Insulin: We are seeking to revolutionize the treatment of diabetes through our proprietary flagship product, an orally ingestible insulin capsule (ORMD0801).  Our technology allows insulin to travel from the gastrointestinal tract via the portal vein to the bloodstream, revolutionizing the manner in which insulin is delivered. It enables its passage in a more physiological manner than current delivery methods of insulin.  Our technology is a platform that has the potential to deliver medications and vaccines orally that today can only be delivered via injection.
 
GLP-1 Analog: Our second pipeline product is an orally ingestible exenatide (GLP-1 analog) capsule, which aids in the balance of blood-sugar levels and decreases appetite. Glucagon-like peptide-1, or GLP-1, is an incretin hormone - a type of gastrointestinal hormone that stimulates the secretion of insulin from the pancreas. The incretin concept was hypothesized when it was noted that glucose ingested by mouth (oral) stimulated two to three times more insulin release than the same amount of glucose administered intravenously. In addition to stimulating insulin release, GLP-1 was found to suppress glucagon release (hormone involved in regulation of glucose) from the pancreas, slow gastric emptying to reduce the rate of absorption of nutrients into the blood stream, and increase satiety. Other important beneficial attributes of GLP-1 are its effects of increasing the number of beta cells (cells that manufacture and release insulin) in the pancreas and, possibly, protection of the heart.
 
Combination of Oral Insulin and GLP-1 Analog: Our third pipeline product is a combination of our two primary products, oral insulin and oral exenatide. Preliminary results of this trial were announced in June 2012. The results showed that our two main products have greater positive effects when given together, as a combination therapy, above the administration of each product alone.
 
Our executive offices are located at Hi-Tech Park 2/5, Givat-Ram, PO Box 39098, Jerusalem 91390, Israel, our telephone number is 972-2-566-0001 and our website address is www.oramed.com.  The information on our website is not incorporated by reference in this prospectus and should not be considered to be part of this prospectus. Our website address is included in this prospectus as an inactive technical reference only.

RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in our common stock involves significant risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors contained in any prospectus supplement and in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2012, as well as all of the information contained in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference herein or therein, before you decide to invest in our common stock. Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected as a result of any of such risks.  The value of our common stock could decline as a result of any of these risks.  You could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. Some of our statements in sections entitled “Risk Factors” are forward-looking statements.   The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws, regarding our business, clinical trials, financial condition, expenditures, results of operations and prospects. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “planned expenditures,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not deemed to represent an all-inclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements as denoted in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference.  Additionally, statements concerning future matters are forward-looking statements.
 
Although forward-looking statements in this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents we incorporate by reference reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors known by us as of such date. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in or anticipated by the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, without limitation, those specifically addressed under the heading “Risk Factors” herein and in the documents we incorporate by reference, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement.  Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus, any prospectus supplement or the respective documents incorporated by reference, as applicable.  Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of such forward-looking statements. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made throughout the entirety of this prospectus, any prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference, which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
 
USE OF PROCEEDS
 
We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered for sale by the selling stockholders. However, we may receive up to approximately $8,945,000 in proceeds upon exercise of the warrants and options held by the selling stockholders, as the warrants and options have a weighted average exercise price of $4.33 per share and are exercisable into 2,063,744 shares of our common stock.  None of the selling stockholders have presently advised us of their intention to exercise any warrants or options at this time. All potential proceeds will be used for the research and development of our products and for general working capital purposes. We will incur all costs associated with the preparation and filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.  Brokerage fees, commissions and similar expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares offered hereby will be borne by the applicable selling stockholders.

In March 2011, we completed a private placement with certain selling stockholders pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 873,961 “units” at a purchase price of $3.84 per unit for total consideration of $3,356,000.  Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. We also issued 16,397 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 5,906 shares of our common stock as finders’ fees in connection with the private placement. These amounts include the sale to D.N.A Biomedical Solutions Ltd., or D.N.A, an Israeli company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, of 65,105 shares of our common stock and a warrant to purchase up to 22,787 shares of our common stock, for a total purchase price of $250,000 in cash.
 
In April 2011, we completed a private placement with certain selling stockholders pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 93,701 “units” at a purchase price of $3.84 per unit for total consideration of $359,800.  Each unit consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.35 of a share of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share.
 
In July 2011, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,622 shares of our common stock as finder’s fees to Yoav Ko Consultings Ltd. and R.

Between August and November 2012, we completed private placements pursuant to which we sold to certain selling stockholders an aggregate of 1,137,336 “units” at a purchase price of $4.44 per unit for total consideration of $5,049,710.  Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase 0.50 of a share of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share.  We paid cash compensation of $84,135 as a finder’s fee.

Regals has not notified us that they plan to request such payment, and such damages may be waived by Regals.
