(Item 4 on the Proxy Card)
 
The Companies Law and our Articles of Association authorize us, subject to the requisite corporate approvals, to purchase an insurance policy for the benefit of our officers and directors, to cover liability by reason of acts or omissions committed while serving in their respective capacities as officers or directors. Specifically, the purchase of insurance for directors is required to be approved by our Compensation Committee, Board of Directors and shareholders, in that order.
 
The Companies Law provides that a company may not enter into an insurance policy which would provide coverage for the liability of an officer or director for: (a) a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, except if he or she acted in good faith and had a reasonable cause to assume that such act would not prejudice the interests of the company; (b) a breach of his or her duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly (as opposed to negligently); (c) an act or omission done with the intent to unlawfully realize personal gain; (d) a fine or monetary settlement imposed upon him or her; or (e) proceedings under Chapters H'3, H'4 or I'1 of the Israeli Securities Law, 5728-1968, as amended (other than legal expenses or for amounts payable to persons who suffered damages as a result of a violation thereof).

On September 2018, our shareholders approved our obtaining a directors and officers liability insurance policy for the benefit of our directors and officers, to be in effect until June 7, 2019. In September 2019, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors approved our entering into/obtaining a new directors and officers liability insurance policy (the “D&O Policy”) for the benefit of our directors and officers. The coverage for directors and officers under the D&O Policy, which has been in effect as of August 18, 2019 and ending on August 17, 2020 (the “Insurance Period”) is up to US$ 10 million per claim, and in the aggregate, during the Insurance Period, with no deductible for directors and officers and a deductible of up to US$ 1.5 million for the Company. The total premium cost of the policy will not exceed US$ 301,896. A covered loss under the policy will be paid in accordance with the following order of priority: first, on behalf of officers and directors, for all loss that they shall be obligated to pay as a result of a claim made against them; thereafter, on our behalf, for all loss that an officer or director will be obligated to pay as a result of a claim made against them, to the extent that the Company is required or permitted by law to indemnify its officers and directors for such loss; and finally, on the Company’s behalf, for all loss that it was obligated to pay as a result of a claim made against it.
 
Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe that it is in the best interests of the Company to provide directors and officers liability insurance coverage to enable the Company to attract and retain highly qualified directors and officers.
 
At the Meeting, the Board of Directors proposes that the following resolution be adopted:
 
 “RESOLVED, to approve the D&O Policy as described in the Proxy Statement, including the order of payment, for the benefit of the directors and officers of the Company (excluding its Controlling shareholder), currently serving and as may serve from time to time.”

Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures:
 
Our Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by our independent auditors. Pre-approval of an audit or non-audit service may be given as a general pre-approval, as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of our independent auditor, or on an individual basis. Any proposed services exceeding general pre-approved levels also require specific pre-approval by our Audit Committee. If needed, the Audit Committee’s Chairman may pre-approve services up to a limit of $10,000, in anticipation of approval of the Audit Committee, at the first meeting following the Chairman’s approval. The policy prohibits retention of the independent registered public accounting firm to perform the prohibited non-audit functions defined in Section 201 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and also requires the Audit Committee to consider whether proposed services are compatible with the independence of the registered public accountants.

Chapter 2 – The Compensation Components

The Compensation Policy for the Officers is composed of several components that combined to form an overall compensation appropriate for the Officers, in accordance with their duties and their contributions to the Company.
 

2.2.
The Compensation Policy includes the following components:

b.
Social and Fringe Benefits – including pension savings, severance pay, disability insurance, vacation, sick leave, recreation pay, continuing education savings, reimbursement of expenses, use of a company car, mobile phone, etc.
 

c.
Variable Rewards in cash (Bonus) – designed as in incentive for Officers to promote and achieve the Company’s goals in the medium and long term.
 

d.
Equity-Based Compensation – designed to create a link between actions that lead to maximizing the value of the Company’s shares over time and the reward given to the Officers for this maximizing, such that the link aligns the Officers’ interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders and contributes to the Officers’ motivation and the Company’s ability to retain quality Officers.
 

e.
End of service terms – designed to arrange the terms at the end of the Officers’ service at the Company, including in order to anchor the rights and obligations of the Company and the Officers toward one another.

2.3.
Unless otherwise noted, the parameters for the fixed components1 in the compensation relate to an Officer employed in a fulltime position. If the relevant Officer is not a salaried employee and/or is not employed fulltime, the requisite adjustments must be made.2 Thus for example, if an Officer is an independent contractor who provides the Company with services and is paid based on a tax receipt, the requisite adjustments will be made such that the cost to the Company will not be higher than the cost if the worker were a salaried employee.
 

2.4.
The following policy rules concerning each of the Officers’ compensation components set an upper or lower limit in certain instance, for the compensation component, based on certain criteria. It is important to note that the Company is not obligated to grant the Officer all the components detailed in this Compensation Policy and is not obligated to grant the maximum or minimum rate set for each of the components, as relevant.
 

2.5.
The Compensation rules do not relate to various benefits whose value is not significant and which the Company grants to its workers. These benefits include: parking, newspaper subscriptions, Internet access, clothing, holiday gifts, etc., and the Company will not be restricted in this regard.

Ceiling on the value of the exercising of the options
 
Following consideration of this matter, the Company’s Compensation Committee and BOD have decided not to set a ceiling on the value for the exercising of the options, since the Company believes that the said ceiling does not serve the Company’s objectives and does not enable the Company to maximize the advantages inherent in the use of the shares-based equity compensation tool, among other things, as a means to incentivize Company Officers to maximize the Company’s profits and the value of its shares, by strengthening the alignment of the Officers’ interests and those of the shareholders, with a view to the long term.
 

g.
The Company may include “acceleration mechanisms” in the Options Plan, that will facilitate the immediate eligibility to exercise the options, in the event of (1) a change in the control of the Company; (2) a merger, acquisition, reorganization of the Company with or into another company, when the Company is not the surviving company; (3) the sale of all or a significant part of the Company’s property or shares, apart from in the framework of a public offer. In addition, the Company’s BOD may include “partial acceleration” in the Options Plan, for special circumstances, when an officer who is not a controlling shareholder is dismissed, apart from when the dismissal is based on grounds that disqualify the said Officer from being eligible for severance pay. In the event that the Company does not include such mechanisms, and an Officer ceased serving the Company before the expiration of the options allocated to him, all the options that have not yet been exercised will expire will not acquire the Officer any rights.

Ratio of fixed elements to variable elements
 
The ratio between the annual cost of the fixed elements and the annual cost of the variable elements for the Company’s Officers, as set down in the framework of this Compensation Policy is as follows:
 
Officer
 
Ratio of the fixed elements12 to the total Compensation (%)
Ratio of the variable elements13 to the total Compensation (%)

0-3555
CEO
4561-100
0-3955
Deputy CEO, Vice Presidents and other Officers
5257-100
0-4348
 
The process of the adoption of the Compensation Policy included the examination of the ratio between the fixed elements and the variable elements, as part of the examination of the proposed structure of the Compensation Policy. After this examination, the Compensation Committee and the Company’s BOD are of the opinion that the said ratio is a fair expression of the Company’s concept concerning the necessary balance between creating appropriate incentives for the Officers, based on their performance, and the Company’s risk management policy as well as aligning the interests and creating an appropriate link between the Officers’ compensation and the yield for the Company’s shareholders.
 

12          The total fixed elements include the base salary, social benefits, fringe benefits and employers National Insurance Institute payment. The calculation is done on the assumption that for each of the elements the Officer will be paid the maximum sum to which he is entitled in accordance with this Compensation Policy.
13          The total variable elements include bonuses (on the assumption that the Officer is granted the overall maximum allowable in accordance with the Compensation Policy, as detailed in clause 5.2.h(b)g above) and a capital grant (partial for calendar year).  The calculation is done on the assumption that for each of the elements the Officer will be paid the maximum sum to which he is entitled in accordance with this Compensation Policy.

Accordingly, the ratios are as follows:14
 
Position
Relationship to the average salary of the Company’s employees
