CONTENTS

On November 7, 2016, Macrocure Ltd. (the “Company” or “Macrocure”) published a notice (the “Notice”) that it will hold a special general meeting of shareholders at the offices of its Israeli counsel, Meitar Liquornik Geva Leshem Tal, located at 16 Abba Hillel Road, 10^th Floor, Ramat Gan 5250608, Israel, on Monday, December 12, 2016 at 3:00 p.m., Israel time. The special meeting is being called to approve, among related matters, the merger of the Company with Leap Therapeutics, Inc. (“Leap”), a clinical stage immuno-oncology company, pursuant to which the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Leap, and Leap will become a public company whose shares will be traded on NASDAQ (assuming the approval of its listing application, such approval being a condition to the consummation of the merger) (collectively, the “Merger”).

The Company will distribute a proxy statement (which will include the full version of the proposed resolutions), a proxy card and a prospectus of Leap describing the Merger, Leap’s business and related matters to all shareholders of record after the record date for the meeting. A copy of the Notice is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K (this “Form 6-K”).

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements that are not historical facts, such as statements regarding whether shares of Leap will be listed for trading on NASDAQ, whether agenda items at the special meeting will be approved, and assumptions and results related to financial results, forecasts, clinical trials, and regulatory authorizations. Words such as “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “believe,” “design,” “may,” “future,” “estimate,” “predict,” “objective,” “goal,” or variations thereof and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on Macrocure’s current knowledge and its present beliefs and expectations regarding possible future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors including, but not limited to, the expected timing and likelihood of completion of the proposed Merger, the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstance that could result in the termination of the merger agreement or the anticipated financing, receipt and timing of any required governmental or regulatory approvals relating to the registration and listing of Leap’s common stock or otherwise relating to the Merger, the anticipated amount needed to finance the combined company’s future operations, unexpected results of clinical trials, delays or denial in regulatory approval process, or additional competition in the market. The forward-looking statements made herein speak only as of the date of this Form 6-K and Macrocure undertakes no obligation to update publicly such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances, except as otherwise required by law.
