While certain terms and conditions are included in this Notice, such terms and conditions shall not in any way derogate from the applicability of all other terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, and therefore, you are urged to review the entire Plan and make yourself familiar with the terms and conditions of the Plan.

With respect to Options granted under Section 102, the terms of such Options shall also be subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement made between the Company and the Trustee for the benefit of the Grantee, as well as the requirements of the Israeli Income Tax Commissioner. The grant of Options is conditioned upon the Grantee signing all documents requested by the Company or the Trustee, in accordance with and under the Trust Agreement. A copy of the Trust Agreement is available for the Grantee’s review, during normal working hours, at Company’s offices.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, including the indication under “Type of Option Award” above, the Company shall be under no duty to ensure, and no representation or commitment is made, that the Option qualifies or will qualify under any particular tax treatment (such as Section 102, ISO or any other treatment), nor shall the Company be required to take any action for the qualification of any Option under such tax treatment. The Company shall have no liability of any kind or nature in the event that, for any reason whatsoever, an Option does not qualify for any particular tax treatment.

The Options and the rights and privileges conferred hereby shall not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred (whether by operation of law or otherwise), except under the laws of descent, and shall not be subject to sale under execution, attachment, levy or similar process (each of the foregoing, a “Transfer”).

2.     Restriction on Disposition of Shares.

(a)     Articles of Association/Bylaws. Shares issued upon exercise of Options shall be subject to the Articles of Association and Bylaws of the Company, any shareholders agreement applicable to all or substantially all of the Company's holders of Shares (regardless of whether or not the Grantee is party to such shareholders agreement) and any other governing documents of the Company, including all policies, manuals and internal regulations adopted by the Company from time to time, in each case, as may be amended from time to time, including, without limitation, any provisions included therein concerning restrictions or limitations on transferability of Shares (such as, but not limited to, right of first refusal and lock up/market stand-off) or grant of any rights with respect thereto and any provisions concerning a restrictions on the use of inside information and other provisions deemed by the Company to be appropriate in order to ensure compliance with applicable laws, statutes and regulations.

Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or other property shall be made to the number and/or class of Shares subject to this Section 2. The terms and conditions contained herein and in the Plan in respect of the Options and/or the Shares shall apply to any new, substituted or additional securities or other property resulting from the above adjustments.

3.     Exercise Procedures. The Grantee or the Grantee’s representative may exercise Options by giving a signed written notice to the Company, attention: Company Secretary. The notice shall specify the election to exercise Options, the number of Shares for which it is being exercised and the form of payment. In the event that Options are being exercised by the representative of the Grantee, the notice shall be accompanied by proof (satisfactory to the Company) of the representative’s right to exercise such Options. The Grantee or the Grantee’s representative shall deliver to the Company, at the time of giving the notice, payment in a form permissible hereunder for the full amount of the Exercise Price.

After receiving a proper notice of exercise, the Company shall cause to be issued a certificate or certificates for the Shares as to which the Options have been exercised, registered in the name of the person exercising such Options. All certificates evidencing Shares acquired pursuant to the grant of an Option under the Plan shall bear such legend as determined by the Company. In the case of 102 Options Award (with Trustee) exercised during the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon exercise shall be issued to and in the name of the Trustee on behalf of Grantee, and shall be held by the Trustee in trust on behalf of Grantee. In the case of 102 Option Award (with Trustee) exercised after the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon the exercise shall be issued either in the name of the Trustee or the Grantee, at the election of Grantee; provided, however, that in the event the Grantee elects to receive the Shares directly to his/her possession, the issuance thereof shall be subject to the payment of any and all applicable taxes by the Grantee. The Grantee shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to Options until the Grantee receives such Shares following the filing of a notice of exercise and paying the Exercise Price in accordance herewith.

In the event that the Company or, with respect to 102 Option Awards (with Trustee), the Trustee, determines that it is required to withhold any tax as a result of the exercise of Options, the Grantee, as a condition to the exercise of Options, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, if applicable, to enable it to satisfy all withholding requirements. The Grantee shall also make arrangements satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, if applicable, to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with the vesting or disposition of Shares acquired pursuant to the grant of an Option under the Plan. Furthermore, the Grantee shall indemnify the Company and the Trustee, if applicable, and hold them harmless against and from any and all liability for any such tax or interest or penalty thereon, including without limitation, liabilities relating to withholding.

4.     Payment of Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be paid in cash or in such other manner as determined by the Company in accordance with the Plan. If Shares are publicly traded, all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes may be paid by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company or the Trustee.

5.     Irrevocable Proxy. As a material precondition to the Company’s issuance of Options and Shares under the Plan, the Grantee hereby executes an irrevocable proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, appointing as the Grantee’s proxy, the Chairman of the Board of the Company or any other person designated by the Board or the Committee with power of delegation, until immediately after the listing for trading on a stock exchange or market or trading system of the Company’s (or the Successor Corporation’s) shares.

The Trustee, may, subject to the Trust Agreement, execute an irrevocable proxy appointing any person designated by the Board or the Committee as its proxy with power of delegation. Any transfer of Shares from the Trustee to the Grantee shall be conditioned upon the execution by the Grantee of an irrevocable proxy, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. The provisions of this Section shall apply to the Grantee and to any purchaser, assignee or transferee of any Shares.

6.     Term and Expiration. The Options shall expire on the earlier of the expiration date set forth in this Notice and the date which is 5 years after the Date of Grant (five years after the Date of Grant if this option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option in this Notice and the Grantee is a Ten Percent Shareholder as defined in the Plan). If the Grantee’s Service terminates for any reason, then this Option shall expire in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

7.     Tax Consultation.

THE GRANTEE IS ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH A TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF RECEIVING OR EXERCISING OPTIONS HEREUNDER. THE COMPANY DOES NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO ADVISE THE GRANTEE ON SUCH MATTERS, WHICH SHALL REMAIN SOLELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE GRANTEE.

In case of Incentive Stock Options, adjustments made pursuant to the Plan with respect to Incentive Stock Options could constitute a “modification” of such Incentive Stock Options (as that term is defined in Section 424(h) of the Code) or could cause adverse tax consequences for the Grantee and the Grantee should consult with his or her tax advisor regarding the consequences of such “modification” on his or her income tax treatment with respect to the Incentive Stock Option.
