6

29.2 allot to every shareholder, who holds a fraction of a share resulting from a consolidation or split, shares of the class that existed prior to the consolidation or split, in a quantity that, when consolidated with the fraction, will constitute a whole share, and such allotment will be considered valid immediately prior to the consolidation or split;

29.3 determine the manner for paying the amounts to be paid for shares allotted in accordance with Article 29.2 above, including on account of bonus shares; or

MODIFICATION OF CLASS RIGHTS

31.

If two or more persons are jointly entitled to a share, the vote of the senior one who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other registered holders of the share, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register.

49. A proxyholder need not be a shareholder of the Company.

50. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing signed by the appointer or of his attorney- in-fact duly authorized in writing. A corporate entity shall vote by a representative duly appointed in writing by such entity. Any instrument appointing a proxy or a representative of a corporate entity (whether for a specified General Meeting or otherwise) shall be in a form satisfactory to the Company.

Such instrument shall be duly signed by the appointer or his duly authorized attorney or, if such appointer is a company or other corporate body, under its common seal, stamp or printed name or the hand of its duly authorized agent(s) or attorney(s).

A proxy instrument may include resolutions pertaining to such issues which are permitted to be included in a proxy instrument according to the Statutes, and such other issues which the Board may decide, in a certain instance or in general, to allow voting through a proxy. A shareholder voting or abstaining through a proxy instrument shall be taken into account in determining the presence of a quorum as if such shareholder is present at the General Meeting.

55. The chairman of the General Meeting shall be responsible for recording the minutes of the General Meeting and any resolution adopted.

DIRECTORS

Powers, Number of Directors, Composition & Election

57. The Board shall have and execute all powers or responsibilities allocated to the Board by the Statutes and these Articles, including, without limitation, (i) the powers granted to the Board pursuant to the Companies Law and (ii) setting the Company’s policies and supervision over the execution of the powers and responsibilities of the CEO. The Board may execute any power of the Company that is not specifically allocated by the Statutes or by these Articles to another organ of the Company.

58. The Board shall consist of such number of directors (not more than ten (10), including External Directors, if any were elected) as may be fixed from time to time by the Board. A reduction of the maximum number of directors on the Board under this Article 58, shall not affect the term in office of serving directors determined prior to such reduction.

59. The directors, excluding the External Directors (if any were elected), shall be classified, with respect to the term for which they each severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly equal in number as practicable, hereby designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. The Board may assign members of the Board already in office to such classes at the time such classification becomes effective.

59.1 The term of office of the initial Class III directors shall expire at the first Annual General Meeting to be held in 2020 and when their successors are elected and qualified;

59.2 The term of office of the initial Class I directors shall expire at the first Annual General Meeting following the Annual General Meeting referred to in Article 59.1 above and when their successors are elected and qualified; and

59.3 The term of office of the initial Class II directors shall expire at the first Annual General Meeting following the Annual General Meeting referred to in Article 59.2 above and when their successors are elected and qualified.

60. At each Annual General Meeting, commencing with the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2020, each of the successors elected to replace the directors of a Class whose term shall have expired at such Annual General Meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third Annual General Meeting next succeeding his or her election and until his or her respective successor shall have been elected and qualified. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, each director shall serve until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until such earlier time as such director’s office is vacated. A director whose term shall expire at an Annual General Meeting may be re-elected at such Annual General Meeting.

61. The Board may at any time and from time to time appoint any person as a director to fill a vacancy (whether such vacancy is due to a director no longer serving or due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number stated in Article 58 above). In the event of one or more such vacancies in the Board, the continuing directors may continue to act in every matter. The office of a director that was appointed by the Board to fill any vacancy shall only be for the remaining period of time during which the director whose service has ended was filled would have held office, or in case of a vacancy due to the number of directors serving being less than the maximum number stated in Article 58 above, the Board shall determine at the time of appointment the class pursuant to Article 59 above, to which the additional director shall be assigned.

16

62. Prior to every General Meeting at which directors are to be elected, and subject to Article 59 above, the Board (or a committee thereof) shall select, by a resolution adopted by a majority of the Board (or such committee), the Persons to be proposed to the Shareholders for election as directors at such General Meeting (the “Nominees”). Any Proposing Shareholder requesting to include on the agenda of a General Meeting a nomination of a Person to be proposed to the shareholders for election as director (such person, an “Alternate Nominee”), may so request provided that it complies with this Article 62 and Article 37 and applicable law. In addition to any information required to be included in accordance with applicable law, such a Proposal Request shall include information required pursuant to Article 37, and shall also set forth: (i) the name, address, telephone number, and email address of the Alternate Nominee and all citizenships and residencies of the Alternate Nominee; (ii) a description of all arrangements, relations or understandings between the Proposing Shareholder(s) or any of its affiliates and each Alternate Nominee; (iii) a declaration signed by the Alternate Nominee that he consents to be named in the Company’s notices and proxy materials relating to the General Meeting, if provided or published, and, if elected, to serve on the Board and to be named in the Company’s disclosures and filings; (iv) a declaration signed by each Alternate Nominee as required under the Companies Law and any other applicable law and stock exchange rules and regulations for the appointment of such an Alternate Nominee and an undertaking that all of the information that is required under law and stock exchange rules and regulations to be provided to the Company in connection with such an appointment has been provided; (v) a declaration made by the Alternate Nominee of whether (s)he meets the criteria for an independent director or External Director of the Company under the Companies Law or under any applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rules, and if not, then an explanation of why not; and (vi) any other information required at the time of submission of the Proposal Request by applicable law, regulations or stock exchange rules. In addition, the Proposing Shareholder shall promptly provide any other information reasonably requested by the Company. The Board may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing. The Company shall be entitled to publish any information provided by a Proposing Shareholder pursuant to this Article 62 and Article 37, and the Proposing Shareholder shall be responsible for the accuracy and completeness thereof.

63. The Nominees or Alternate Nominees shall be elected by a Simple Majority (provided, however, that in the case of contested election, the Nominees or Alternate Nominees shall be elected by a vote of plurality of the votes cast), and by a resolution adopted at the General Meeting at which they are subject to election.

17

For the purposes of these Articles, any General Meeting shall be considered a “contested election” if the total number of nominees for election to the Board at such General Meeting (including all persons (i) with respect to whom a shareholder has delivered, in due time pursuant to the Companies Law and these Articles, a notice of its intent to nominate at such General Meeting and (ii) with respect to whom such notice of intent to nominate has not been withdrawn by such shareholder prior to the date of the definitive proxy statement filed by the Company with the SEC with respect to such General Meeting, as such date is set forth in the definitive proxy statement) made in compliance with these Articles and the Companies Law exceeds the total number of Nominees or Alternate Nominees to be elected at such General Meeting. At any General Meeting at which Nominees or Alternate Nominees are to be elected, each shareholder shall be entitled to cast a number of votes with respect to nominees for election to the Board up to the total number of Nominees or Alternate Nominees to be elected at such General Meeting.

64. The term of office of a director shall commence on the date of such director’s election by the General Meeting or by the Board or on a later date, should such date be determined in the resolution of appointment of the General Meeting or of the Board. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, a General Meeting may dismiss a director during his/her term, with or without cause, by a vote of a Special Majority.

65. An amendment to Articles 57-65 or this Article 39 shall require a Special Majority.

66. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, the election, qualification, removal or dismissal of External Directors shall be only in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in the Companies Law.

A majority of the members of the Board may decide to hold a meeting without such notice, provided the Chairman participates in such meeting.  

Quorum

70. No business shall be transacted at any meeting of the Board unless a quorum of directors is present when a meeting is called to order. A quorum shall be deemed to exist when there are present at least half of the directors then in office.

If a quorum is not present at the meeting of the Board within half an hour after the time scheduled for the meeting, the meeting may be adjourned to another time as shall be decided by the Chairman, or in his absence, the directors present at the meeting, provided that notice of no less than twenty four (24) hours in advance shall be given to all the directors of the time of the adjourned meeting. The directors may waive the necessity of such notice either beforehand or retrospectively. The quorum for the commencement of the adjourned meeting shall be at least one member of the Board.

Methods of Attending Meetings

71. Some or all of the directors may attend meetings of the Board through computer network, telephone or any other media of communication, enabling the directors to communicate with each other, in the deemed presence of all of them, provided that due prior notice detailing the time and manner of holding a given meeting is served upon all the directors. The directors may waive the necessity of such notice either beforehand or retrospectively.

Any resolution adopted by the Board in such a meeting, pursuant to the provisions of these Articles, will be recorded in writing and signed by the Chairman (or in his absence by the chairman of the meeting), and shall be valid as if adopted at a meeting of the Board duly convened and held.

72. A resolution in writing signed or otherwise approved in writing by all of the directors eligible to participate in the discussion and vote on such resolution, or in respect of which all such directors have agreed (in writing by mail, fax or electronic media) not to convene, shall be as valid and effective for all purposes as if passed at a meeting of the Board duly convened and held. Any such resolution may consist of several counterparts, each signed or otherwise approved in writing by one or more directors. Such resolution in writing shall be effective as of the last date appearing on the resolution, or if the resolution is signed or otherwise approved in writing in two or more counterparts, as of the last date appearing on the counterparts.

19

73. While exercising his/her voting right, each director shall have one vote. Resolutions of the Board will be decided by a simple majority of the directors present and voting, not taking into consideration abstaining votes, except as otherwise provided in these Articles or by the Statutes. In the event the vote is tied, the Chairman shall not have a casting vote.

Committees

74. The Board may set up committees and appoint members to these committees subject to the Statutes. A resolution passed or an act done by such a committee pursuant to an authority granted to such committee by the Board shall be treated as a resolution passed or act done by the Board, unless expressly otherwise prescribed by the Board or the Statutes for a particular matter or in respect of a particular committee.
