CHANGES IN THE PLAN; ADJUSTMENTS
8.1.

The Company shall be entitled to update and/or change the rights attached to the Shares.
8.2.
Upon the occurrence of a Transaction, the Committee shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to adjust the rights of an Optionee under the Plan, such as providing an Optionee with substitute securities of the Successor Company and/or other substitute compensation, as is reasonable in the opinion of the Committee, as long as the substitute securities and/or the compensation are calculated to be reasonable as compared to the compensation or substitute securities (or their financial equivalent) received by all or some of the holders of Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, in the Company other than the Optionee (the "Substitute Compensation"). Such opinion of the Committee shall be delivered to the Optionees and shall be final and conclusive. The Committee shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, without being required to provide any reasoning to its determination, to decide that upon the occurrence of a Transaction, every unvested Option shall expire automatically, and shall have no value whatsoever.
8.3. Without derogating from the rights of the Company under sections 8.2 and 8.1 above, upon the occurrence of any of the following described events, Optionee's rights to purchase Shares under the ESOP shall be adjusted as provided hereafter:
8.3.1.
In the event of Transaction, the unexercised Options then outstanding under the ESOP may, according to the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee, be assumed or substituted for options to purchase an appropriate number of shares of each class of shares, or other securities of the Successor Company (or a parent or subsidiary of the Successor Company), per each Share underlying the assumed or substituted Option, as were distributed to the holders of Shares of the Company per each Share held, in connection with and pursuant to the Transaction. In the case of

such assumption and/or substitution of Options, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price so as to reflect such action and all other terms and conditions of the Option Agreements shall remain unchanged, including but not limited to the vesting schedule, all subject to the determination of the Committee, which determination shall be in their discretion and final.
8.3.2.
If, in any such Transaction, the Successor Company (or parent or subsidiary of the Successor Company) does not agree to assume or substitute any unexercised Options underlying such Option Agreement, then the Vesting Dates of such Options may, but will not necessarily will, at the Committee's discretion without being required to provide reasoning for its decision, be accelerated so that any such unexercised Options that are then unvested shall be immediately vested and exercisable as of the date that is ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the Transaction for a 10-day thereafter (upon expiration of which period the Options shall expire).
8.3.3.
If the Company is voluntarily liquidated or dissolved while unexercised Options remain outstanding under the ESOP, the Company shall immediately notify all unexercised Option holders of such liquidation, and the Option holders shall then have 14 days to exercise any unexercised Vested Option held by them at that time, in accordance with the exercise procedure set forth herein. Upon the expiration of such fourteen-day period, all remaining unexercised Options will terminate immediately.
8.3.4.
If the outstanding shares of the Company shall at any time be changed or exchanged due to exchange of shares, recapitalization, or any other like event by or of the Company, other than stock split, stock combination or bonus shares issuance, and as often as the same shall occur, then the number, class and kind of the Shares subject to the ESOP or subject to any Options therefore granted, and the Exercise Prices, shall be appropriately and equitably, as shall be determined by the Committee, adjusted, provided, however, that the Exercise Price shall not be less than the par value of the Share underlying any such Options, and provided further, that no adjustment shall be made by reason of the distribution of subscription rights (rights offering) on outstanding shares. Upon occurrence of any of the foregoing, the class and aggregate number of Shares issuable pursuant to the ESOP (as set forth in Section 3.1 hereof), in respect of which Options have not yet been exercised, shall be appropriately adjusted, all as will be determined by the Committee.
8.3.5.
In the event of issuance of bonus shares to the Company's shareholders which is not in the manner of a stock split, the terms of the Options shall be adjusted by way of (i) increasing the number of Exercise Shares to which the Offerees shall be entitled upon exercising the Option, by the same number of shares to which they would have been entitled as bonus shares had they exercised the Option prior to the effective date for being entitled to receive such bonus shares or (ii) reducing the exercise price or (iii) any combination of the above, all as shall be determined by the Committee.

Sale, transfer, assignment or other disposal (collectively, "Sale") of Shares issuable upon the exercise of an Option shall be subject to the rights of first refusal and co-sale rights of other shareholders of the Company as set forth in the Articles of Association of the Company or in any agreement among the Company and all or substantially all of its shareholders. In the event that neither the Articles of Association of the Company nor any such agreement shall provide for applicable rights of first refusal or co-sale rights, then, unless otherwise determined by the Board, until such time as the Company shall complete an IPO, the Sale of Shares issuable upon the exercise of an Option shall be subject to a right of first refusal on the part of the shareholders of the Company having rights of first refusal according to the Articles of Association of the Company at that time or any agreement between shareholders of the Company (part or all of such shareholders) as in effect at the time of such transfer (the "Governing Corporate Document") (excluding Optionees who exercised their Options). The provisions of the Governing Corporate Documents shall apply to the transfer of such Shares, mutatis mutandis.
12.4.
Prior to an IPO, and in addition to the right of first refusal, any transfer of Shares by an Optionee shall require the Board's approval as to the identity of the transferee and as required under the Company's Articles of Association. The Board may refuse to approve the transfer of Shares to any competitor of the Company or to any other person or entity the Board determines, in its discretion, may be detrimental to the Company.
12.5.
To avoid doubt, the Optionees shall not be deemed owners of the Shares issuable upon the exercise of Options and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of shareholders of the Company in respect of any Shares purchasable upon the exercise of any Option, nor shall they be deemed to be a class of shareholders of the Company for purpose of the operation of sections 350 and 351 of the Companies Law or any successor to such section, until registration of the Optionee as holder of such Shares in the Company's register 'of shareholders upon exercise of the Option in accordance with the provisions of the ESOP,



13
THE 2011 ISRAELI SHARE OPTION PLAN




but in case of Options and Shares held by the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6 of the ESOP. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Optionees be deemed a class of creditors of the Company for purpose of the operation of sections 350 and 351 of the Companies Law or any successor to such section.
13.
PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT; LIMITATIONS UPON IPOI REPRESENTATIONS
13.1. The Company's obligation to issue or allocate Shares upon exercise of an Option granted under the ESOP is expressly conditioned upon: (a) the Company's completion of any registration or other qualifications of such Shares under all applicable laws, rules and regulations or (b) representations and undertakings by the Optionee (or his legal representative, heir or legatee, in the event of the Optionee's death) to assure that the sale of the Shares complies with any registration exemption requirements which the Company in its sole discretion shall deem necessary or advisable. Such required representations and undertakings may include representations and agreements that such Optionee (or his legal representative, heir, or legatee): (a) is purchasing such Shares for investment and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise disposing thereof; and (b) agrees to have placed upon the face and reverse of any certificates evidencing such Shares a legend setting forth (i) any representations and undertakings which such Optionee has given to the Company or a reference thereto and (ii) that, prior to effecting any sale or other disposition of any such Shares, the Optionee must furnish to the Company an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that such sale or disposition will not violate the applicable laws, rules, and regulations, whether of the State of Israel or of the United States or any other State having jurisdiction over the Company and the Optionee.
13.2. The Optionee acknowledges that in the event that the Company's shares shall be registered for trading in any public market, Optionee's rights to sell the Shares may be subject to certain limitations (including a lock-up period), as will be requested by the Company or its underwriters, and the Optionee unconditionally agrees and accepts any such limitations.
13.3, Upon the grant of Options to an Optionee or the issuance of Shares upon the exercise thereof, the Company shall obtain from such the representations and undertakings 'as follows, and by virtue of receipt of such Options, Optionee shall be deemed to have made such representation to the Company:
13.3.1. That the Optionee is familiar with the Company, its activity and its financial and commercial forecast, and that the Optionee knows that there is no certainty that the exercise of the Options will be financially worthwhile. The Optionee hereby undertakes not to have any claim against the Company or any of its directors, employees, stockholders or advisors if it emerges, at the time of exercising the Options, that the Optionee's investment in the Company's Shares was not worthwhile, for any reason whatsoever.
13.3.2. That the Optionee knows that his rights regarding the Options and the Shares are subject for all intents and purposes to the instructions of the Company's documents of incorporation and to the agreements of the stockholders in the Company.
13.3.3. That the Optionee knows that in addition to the allocations set forth above, the Company has allocated and/or is entitled to allocate Options and Shares to other employees and other people, and the Optionee shall have no claim regarding such allocations, their quantity, the relationship among them and between them and the




14
THE 2011 ISRAELI SHARE OPTION PLAN





other stockholders in the Company, exercising of the options or any matter related to or stemming from them.
13.3.4. That the Optionee acknowledges that neither the ESOP nor the grant of Option or Shares thereunder shall impose any obligation on the Company to continue the engagement of the Optionee, and nothing in the ESOP or in any Option or Shares granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionee any right to continue being engaged by the Company, or restrict the right of the Company to terminate such engagement at any time.
14.DIVIDENDS
With respect to all Shares (but excluding, for avoidance of any doubt, any unexercised Options) allocated or issued upon the exercise of Options purchased by the Optionee and held by the Optionee or by the Trustee, as the case may be, the Optionee shall be entitled to receive dividends in accordance with the quantity of such Shares, subject to the provisions of the Company's Articles of Association (and all amendments thereto) and subject to any applicable taxation on distribution of dividends, and, when applicable, subject to the provisions of Section 102 and the rules, regulations or orders promulgated thereunder.
15.RESTRICTIONS ON ASSIGNABILITY AND SALE OF OPTIONS
15.1. No Option or any right with respect thereto, purchasable hereunder, whether fully paid or not, shall be assignable, transferable or given as collateral or any right with respect to it given to any third party whatsoever, except as specifically allowed under the ESOP, and during the lifetime of the Optionee each and all of such Optionee's rights to purchase Shares hereunder shall be exercisable only by the Optionee.
15.2. Any such action made directly or indirectly, for an immediate validation or for a future one, shall be void. As long as Options and/or Shares are held by the Trustee on behalf of the Optionee, all rights of the Optionee over the Shares are personal, can not be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution.
16.EFFECTIVE DATE AND DURATION OF THE ESOP
The ESOP shall be effective as of the day it was adopted by the Board and shall terminate at the end of 10 years from such day of adoption, unless terminated earlier in accordance with Section 9 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and unless otherwise determined, with respect to outstanding Options only, the provisions of the ESOP shall survive its termination, and for that purpose only, the ESOP shall be in full force and effect.
17.TERMINATION OF ESOP
The Board may at any time, but when applicable, terminate the ESOP provided that no termination of the ESOP shall substantially financially derogate from the rights attached to the Options (whether vested or unvested) as of the date of such modification. Termination of the ESOP shall not affect the Board or the Committee's ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options granted under the ESOP prior to the date of such termination.
18.GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
The ESOP, and the grant and exercise of Options hereunder, and the obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares under such Options, shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, whether of the State of Israel or of the United States or any other State having



15
THE 2011 ISRAELI SHARE OPTION PLAN




jurisdiction over the Company and the Optionee, including, without limitation, the United States Securities Act of 1933, the Companies Law, the Securities Law, 1968, and the Ordinance, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Company to register the Shares under the securities laws of any jurisdiction.
19.CONTINUANCE OF EMPLOYMENT OR HIRED SERVICES
Neither the ESOP nor the Option Agreement with the Optionee shall impose any obligation on the Company or an Affiliate thereof, to continue any Optionee in its employ or service, and nothing in the ESOP or in any Option granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionee any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate thereof or restrict the right of the Company or an Affiliate thereof to terminate such employment or service at any time.
20.GOVERNING LAW & JURISDICTION
The ESOP shall be governed by and construed and enforced solely in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel applicable to contracts made and to be performed therein, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws. The competent courts of Tel-Aviv, Israel shall have sole jurisdiction in any matters pertaining to the ESOP.
21.INTEGRATION OF SECTION 102 AND TAX COMMISSIONER'S PERMIT
21.1. With regards to Approved 102 Options, the provisions of the ESOP and/or the Option Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Income Tax Rules (Tax Relieves for Grants of Shares to Employees), 2003-5763 and the Income Tax Assessor's permit, and the said provisions and permit shall be deemed an integral part of the ESOP and of the Option Agreement.
21.2. Any provision of Section 102 and/or the said permit which is necessary in order to receive and/or to keep any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102, which is not expressly specified in the ESOP or the Option Agreement, shall be considered binding upon the Company and the Optionees.
22.TAX CONSEQUENCES
22.1. Any tax or compulsory payment consequences arising from the grant or exercise of any Option, from the payment for Shares covered thereby or from any other event or act (of the Company and/or its Affiliates, the Trustee or the Optionee), hereunder, including but not limited to National Insurance payments and income tax, shall be borne solely by the Optionee. The Company and/or its Affiliates and/or the Trustee shall withhold taxes or compulsory payments according to the requirements under the applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including withholding taxes at source. Furthermore, the Optionee shall indemnify the Company and/or its Affiliates and/or the Trustee 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 the necessity to withhold, or to have withheld, any such tax or other compulsory payment deriving from any payment made to the Optionee.
22.2. The ramifications of any future modification of all applicable laws regarding the taxation of Options and/or Shares granted to Optionees shall apply to the Optionees accordingly and such Optionees shall bear the full cost thereof, unless such modified laws expressly provide otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, should the applicability of such taxing



16
THE 2011 ISRAELI SHARE OPTION PLAN




arrangements to the ESOP or to securities issued in the framework thereof be stipulated by an application by the Company or by the Trustee that same shall apply, the Company shall be entitled to decide, at its absolute discretion, whether to apply such taxing arrangements and to instruct the Trustee to act accordingly.
22.3. The Company and/or, when applicable, the Trustee shall not be required to release any Share certificate to an Optionee until all required payments have been fully made.

23.PROVISIONS OF ESOP PREVAIL
23.1. The ESOP (together with the Option Agreement) supersedes all of the agreements and/or understandings reached prior to the date of granting of Options to such Optionee between the Company or any subsidiary thereof and any of the Optionees in connection with issuance of shares of the Company or options on shares of the Company. Any representation and/or promise and/or undertaking made and/or given by the Company and/or by any subsidiary thereof or by whomsoever on their behalf, which have not been expressed herein, shall have no force and effect.
23.2. In the event of contradiction between the provisions of the ESOP and any agreement between the Company and the Optionee, excluding the Option Agreement, the provisions of the ESOP shall prevail; in the event of contradiction between the provisions of the ESOP and the Option Agreement, the provisions of the Option Agreement shall prevail.
24.MULTIPLE AGREEMENTS
The terms of each Option may differ from other Options granted under the ESOP at the same time, or at any other time. The Board may also grant more than one Option to a given Optionee during the term of the ESOP, either in addition to, or in substitution for, one or more Options previously granted to that Optionee.

(b)Termination for Other Reasons. Unless the Plan Administrator provides otherwise in the specified Award or otherwise consents in writing, upon the termination of a Participant’s employment with or provision of service to the Company and all Affiliates because of any reason other than for Cause, the Participant’s Incentive Stock Options shall be exercisable only as to those shares which were immediately purchasable by the Participant at the date of termination and only for up to ninety (90) days following termination, all subject to the provisions set forth in the Code.
IX.7 Other Conditions, Restrictions, Contingencies. Each Award may specify other conditions, restrictions and contingencies to which the Incentive Stock Option is subject as deemed appropriate in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator. Participant must notify the Company promptly in the event that he sells, transfers, exchanges or otherwise disposes of any Shares issued upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option before the later of (i) the second anniversary of the date of grant of the Incentive Stock Options or (ii) the first anniversary of the date the Shares were issued upon his exercise of the Incentive Stock Options.
IX.8 Special Provisions Applicable to Incentive Stock Options. If designated in the Option Agreement as an Incentive Stock Option, such Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code. Nevertheless, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d), such Option shall be treated as a Nonstatutory Stock Option. Further, if for any reason an Option (or portion thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a Nonstatutory Stock Option granted under the Plan. In no event shall the Company or any Affiliate or any of their respective employees or directors have any liability to an Optionee (or any other person) due to the failure of the Option to qualify for any reason as an Incentive Stock Option.
IX.9 Conversion of Incentive Stock Options Into Non­Qualified Stock Options; Termination of Incentive Stock Options. The Plan Administrator, at the written request of any Participant, may in its discretion take such actions as may be necessary to convert such Participant's Incentive Stock Options (or any portions thereof) that have not been exercised on the date of conversion into Non­Qualified Stock Options at any time prior to the expiration of such Incentive Stock Options, regardless of whether the Participant is an Employee of the Company or a parent or a subsidiary at the time of such conversion. Such actions may include, but not be limited to, extending the exercise period or reducing the exercise price of the appropriate installments of such Options. At the time of such conversion, the Plan Administrator (with the consent of the Participant) may impose such conditions on the exercise of the resulting Non Qualified Stock Options as the Board in its discretion may determine, provided that such conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan and/or this Appendix. Nothing in the Plan and/or in this Appendix shall be deemed to give any Participant the right to have such granted Incentive Stock Options converted into Non Qualified Stocks Options, and no such conversion shall occur unless and until the Plan Administrator takes appropriate action. The Plan Administrator, with the consent of the

A 9


Participant, may also terminate any portion of any Incentive Stock Option that has not been exercised at the time of such conversion.
Article X
MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS OF OPTIONS
X.1    Method of Exercise. Each Option shall be exercised pursuant to the terms of this Plan by giving written notice to the Company at its principal place of business. Unless the Plan Administrator consents in writing to the contrary, the form of such notice shall be substantially similar to the exercise notice contained in Exhibit A, which may be amended and otherwise updated from time to time by the Plan Administrator (the “Exercise Notice”). No Option granted under this Plan may be exercised or Award granted unless, at the time of exercise or grant, Ordinary Shares to be issued qualifies for exemption from, or is registered pursuant to, applicable federal and state securities laws. In the event there is not then on file with the SEC an effective registration statement, including a prospectus relating to the shares subject to the Award, the Plan Administrator may require the Participant to execute and deliver to the Company prior to receipt by such Participant of any such shares under this Plan, an investment representations statement in form and substance satisfactory to the Company. Unless the Plan Administrator provides otherwise in the specified Award or consents in writing (as limited by Section 13 of the 2012 Israeli Share Option Plan), shares may be purchased pursuant to an Option only upon full payment of the purchase price in cash.
X.2    Rights of a Shareholder. No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares covered by an Option until the date of registering such shares under the Participant name in the Company's Register. Nothing in this Plan or in any Award granted confers on any person any right to continue in the employ of the Company or Affiliates or to continue as a director, officer, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or Affiliates or interferes in any way with the right of the Company or Affiliates to terminate a Participant’s services at any time.
X.3    Limited Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in an Award or unless the Plan Administrator consents in writing to the contrary, Options may only be transferred pursuant to a will or to the laws of descent and distribution upon a Participant’s death. Except as otherwise provided in an Award or unless the Plan Administrator consents in writing to the contrary, during the lifetime of a Participant granted Options, such Options may only be exercised by such Participant or such Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The Plan Administrator has the power and authority to establish additional rules and regulations from time to time specifically governing the transfer of Options as it deems necessary or advisable.
X.4    Change in Control through Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Company shall have no obligation to notify the Participant of such event and any Award that has not been previously exercised will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a voluntary liquidation of the Company that is not considered a merger or acquisition, the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as practicable, prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction, that the Participant will have the right to exercise his or her vested Awards within five (5) working days from receipt of such notice, but in any case not later than the effective date of such transaction. For an Option granted subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A (pursuant to Section 2.4 (Alternative




A 10


B)) of a Stock Option Agreement, payment shall be allowed only to the extent allowed under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.409A­3(j)(4)(i) and 1.409A­3(j)(4)(ix). To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless the Board has authorized a longer period to exercise such vested Awards.
X.5    Change in Control (Other than through Dissolution or Liquidation).
Except to the extent set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control (other than a complete dissolution or liquidation in Section 10.4 of this Plan):
(a)Each outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent Award substituted by the successor company or a parent or subsidiaries of the successor company. In the case of such assumption and/or substitution of Awards, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number of Award shares and exercise price to reflect such action, and all other terms and conditions of the Award, such as the vesting dates, shall remain in force, all as will be determined by the Board whose determination shall be final.
(b)The Plan Administrator shall determine, in its discretion, the proper exchange ratio of the Awards and the fair value of such Awards for purpose of such substitution, and shall be authorized to accelerate the vesting date of any or all Awards and shall be authorized to make all necessary adjustments in the terms of the Awards and the substituted Awards (including, without limitation, adjustments in the exercise price) that are fair under the circumstances.
(c)In the event that the successor company refuses to assume or substitute for the Awards, the Participant shall retain the right to exercise vested Awards, to the extent allowed under the Award, and the Plan Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing that such Awards shall be exercisable for a period not less than fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Awards shall terminate upon the expiration of such period (unless Section 2.4 of the Stock Option Agreement requires a shorter exercise period). Should the Change in Control occur within one year of the Date of Grant, such Participant shall be eligible to exercise a proportion of such Awards as determined by the Plan Administrator, however, to the extent the Award is subject to the requirement of Code Section 409A, this subsection shall only apply to the extent the Change in Control also meets the requirements of Change in Control for purposes of Section 2.4 of the Stock Option Agreement.
(d)For the purposes of this Section 10.5, Awards shall be considered assumed if, following the Change in Control, the Award (or substitute award) confers upon the Participant the right to purchase or receive, for each Award share for which the Award was exercisable immediately prior to the Change in Control, the pro rata consideration (whether shares, stock options, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Change in Control by holders of shares for each share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if such holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change in Control is not solely ordinary shares (or their equivalent) of the successor company or its parent, the Plan Administrator may, with the consent of the successor company, provide: for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Award, for each Award share, to be solely Ordinary Shares (or their equivalent) of the successor company or its parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of a majority of the

A 11


outstanding shares in the Change in Control and provided further that the Plan Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, that in lieu of such assumption or substitution of Awards for awards by the acquiring corporation or its parent or subsidiaries, such Awards will be substituted for by any other type of asset or property including cash which is fair under the circumstances. Such calculation may not result in a decrease in the initial exercise price such that an Option that is not subject to Code Section 409A becomes subject to Code Section 409A.
X.6 Bring­Along. Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option shall be subject to “bring­along" provisions in the Articles of Association of the Company, if any.
X.7    Tag­Along and Other Restrictions. Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option will be subject to rights of first refusal, “tag­along" and all other transfer restrictions, limitations and provisions in the Articles of Association, to the extent that such provisions exist, to which Shares are subject.
Article XI
AGREEMENT WITH GRANTEES
Each Award will be evidenced by a written agreement, executed by the Participant and the Company or Affiliates. Each Award will describe the conditions for receiving such Award, the Date of Grant, the purchase price, if any, applicable Option Periods, performance or other periods, terms and conditions as may be required by applicable securities or tax laws and other terms and conditions that are not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan.
Article XII
SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT; PROXY
The Plan Administrator may require that, as a condition precedent to the exercise of any Option under this Plan (or the receipt of any Stock Grant under this Plan), the Participant simultaneously execute a counterpart of a shareholders agreement or a joinder agreement to a shareholders agreement (in form satisfactory to the Company). Such shareholders agreement may contain, among other things, transfer restrictions pertaining to the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such exercise and the right of the Company or the other shareholders to repurchase such Ordinary Shares upon the happening of certain events. It is clarified that Participants and the Ordinary Shares issued upon exercise of an Award, shall be govern by and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Company's Article of Association, as may be amended from time to time and the provisions set forth in Section 12 to the 2012 Israeli Share Option Plan are incorporated herein by reference.
Article XIII
DILUTION AND OTHER ADJUSTMENTS
In the event of any change in the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Company by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, conversion, spin-off, reorganization, combination or exchange of shares, or other similar corporate change, or other increase or decrease in such shares without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company, the Plan Administrator will

A 12


make such adjustments to previously granted Awards, to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of the Participant, including any or all of the following:
(a)adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of Ordinary Shares that may be awarded under this Plan;
(b)adjustments in the aggregate number or kind of Ordinary Shares covered by Awards already made under this Plan; or
(c)adjustments in the purchase price of outstanding Options.
No such adjustments may, however, materially change the value of benefits available to a Participant under a previously granted Award.
Article XIV
WITHHOLDING; TAXATION
XIV.1 Withholding. Unless the Plan Administrator provides otherwise in the specified Award or consents in writing, as a condition to the exercise of any Option granted hereunder or the issuance of a Stock Grant, or the release of stock certificates from the Company’s custody in connection with a Stock Grant, the Participant shall make payment to the Company in an amount required for the satisfaction of any federal, state or local withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise, issuance or release, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. If the Plan Administrator so provides in the specified Award or consents in writing, the Participant may make other arrangements for the payment of such withholding tax obligations, including, without limitation, the deduction of any such required withholding from any payments due or to become due to the Participant.
XIV.2 No Guarantee of Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Plan, the Company does not guarantee nor make any warranty to any Participant or any other person with an interest in an Option that any Option intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A shall be so exempt, nor that any Option intended to comply with Code Section 409A shall so comply, nor will the Company or any Affiliate indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with respect to the tax consequences of any such failure.
Article XV
TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT OF THIS PLAN
The Shareholders may at any time, and from time to time, terminate, modify or amend this Plan in any respect and for any reason, including, but not limited to, for the purpose of obtaining or retaining any statutory or regulatory benefits under tax, securities or other laws. No Awards under this Plan shall be granted after February 21st, 2022. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan or the specified Award, such termination, modification or amendment may not affect the rights of a Participant under such Award.

A 13

Subject to the right of an Option Holder's personal representative to exercise an Option following the Option Holder's death as set out in Rule 6.3, every Option shall be personal to the Eligible Employee to whom it is granted and shall not be capable of being transferred, assigned or charged.

3.
Condition of Exercise
3.1
The Agreement shall state whether or not, and the extent to which, exercise of the Option may be dependent upon the satisfaction of Performance Targets or other conditions.
3.2
After an Option has been granted the Directors may if they consider it appropriate, vary or waive the Performance Targets or other conditions attaching to such Option provided that no variation shall be made unless the Directors reasonably consider that the terms of the Performance Targets or other conditions should be so varied for the purpose of ensuring that either:
3.2.1
the objective criteria against which the performance of the Company or the Option Holder will then be measured will be a fairer measure of such performance; or
3.2.2
any amended Performance Target or other conditions will afford a more effective incentive to the Option Holder,

and will not be substantially more difficult to satisfy than the Performance Targets or other conditions, when they were first set.

14



3.3
As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of any variation or waiver of existing Performance Targets or conditions made pursuant to Rule 3.2, the Directors shall notify in writing all those Option Holders whose Agreements have been so varied or waived.

4.
Individual Limits

If an Option Holder has been granted options over Shares which are EMI Options and which (together with any CSOP share options granted to such Option Holder) in aggregate have a Market Value (measured at the relevant Date of Grant) equal to the Individual Limit (whether or not such options have been exercised or released) any Option granted to him within three years of the date of which he was last granted an option which was an EMI Option shall, unless agreed otherwise with HMRC, no longer be an HMRC approved option.
5.
Scheme Limits

5.1
The total Market Value of Shares (calculated as at the Date of Grant of the relevant EMI Option) in respect of which unexercised EMI Options exist on any given day must not exceed £3 million (or such other amount as may from time to time be specified in Schedule 5).

6.
Rights of Exercise and Lapse of Options

6.1
Save as provided in Rules 6.3 (death), 6.4 (Disqualifying Event), 6.5 (leavers), and 6.6 (Exit), an Option may not be exercised before the date or dates stated in the Agreement or, in any event, after the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant.
6.2
Save as provided in Rules 6.3 (death), 6.4 (Disqualifying Event), 6.5 (leavers) and 6.6 (Exit), an Option may only be exercised by an Option Holder while he is an Eligible Employee.
6.3
If an Option Holder dies at a time when he is still an employee of the Company or any member of its Group, then his Option may be exercised in whole or in part by

15


his personal representatives at any time during the period of twelve (12) months after the date of his death, provided that (i) such Option was at the date of the relevant Option holder’s death exercisable (and had not been wholly exercised) or in the 12 month period following his death becomes exercisable in accordance with these Rules and the provisions of that deceased Option Holder's Agreement(s) (which shall continue to apply during such period mutatis mutandis) and (ii) such exercise may not under any circumstance occur after the expiration of the Option Period. To the extent that the Option so exercisable is not exercised within such twelve (12) month period, it shall automatically cease and determine on the expiration of such period.

6.4
In relation to a particular event, the Directors may determine that an Option validly granted under these Rules as an EMI Option may be exercised during the period of 40 days following a Disqualifying Event notwithstanding whether it is otherwise capable of exercise and provided that the right of exercise and lapse of the Option are not otherwise set out in these Rules or in the Agreement.

6.5
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Rules, if an Option Holder ceases to be an Eligible Employee for any reason (other than death), his unexercised Options (whether or not they have become exercisable in accordance with Rule 6.1) shall lapse or be treated as having lapsed immediately on the earlier of the date of cessation of his employment and the date he gives or receives notice to terminate his employment subject to the absolute discretion of the Directors to determine otherwise (and should they make such determination they shall notify the relevant Option Holder as to what extent he may exercise his Option and the period during which he may so exercise, on the expiry of which the Option shall lapse).

6.6
In the event of an Exit, an Option Holder may exercise his Option either (at the written direction of the Directors) on or (within such period as the Directors specify in writing) after the Exit (conditional in any event upon the completion of such Exit), subject at all times to the Option having become exercisable pursuant to Rule 6.1 and any Performance Targets or other conditions having been met or, if expressly set out in the Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Should

16



such Exit not take place any such exercise shall be deemed never to have taken place and the Option shall continue to subsist as before.
6.7
An Option shall lapse on the occurrence of the earliest of the following:
6.7.1
the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant;
6.7.2
the expiry of the applicable periods specified in Rules 6.3 (death) and 6.6 (Exit);
6.7.3
the date of cessation of the holder of that Option's employment and the date he gives or receives notice to terminate his employment (unless the Directors have exercised their discretion as referred to in Rule 6.5);
6.7.4
where the Directors have exercised their discretion as referred to in Rule 6.5, the expiry of the period notified to the Option Holder as being the period by which the Option must be exercised in whole or part;
6.7.5
following a determination of the Directors that Options may be exercised in connection with an Exit in accordance with Rule 6.6 (Exit), the expiry of the applicable period for exercise so determined;
6.7.6
the date on which notice is given of a general meeting at which a resolution will be proposed for the voluntary winding up of the Company;
6.7.7
the date on which a resolution is passed, or an order is made by the Court, for the compulsory winding up of the Company;
6.7.8
the date of which the Directors determine that any applicable Performance Targets or other conditions have not been satisfied or are no longer capable of satisfaction; or

17


6.7.9
the date on which the Option Holder becomes bankrupt or does or omits to do anything as a result of which he is deprived of the legal or beneficial ownership of the Option.

7.
Exercise of Options
7.1
An Option shall be exercisable (in whole or in part) by notice in writing (in the form prescribed by the Company from time to time) given by the Option Holder (or his personal representatives as the case may be) to the Company. The notice of exercise of the Option shall be accompanied by a remittance in cleared funds for the aggregate Option Price payable in respect of the number of Shares over which the Option is exercised and, where required by the Directors, following deduction of any sums due directly or indirectly to the Company pursuant to Rule 7.3.

7.2
Subject to Rule 7.3, Rule 7.4 and the following provisions of this Rule 7.2, within 30 days of the exercise of an Option, the Directors shall allot or procure the transfer of the Shares in respect of which the Option has been validly exercised and shall issue a definitive certificate in respect of the Shares allotted or transferred, unless the Directors consider that such allotment or transfer would not be lawful in the relevant jurisdiction. Shares so allotted or transferred shall be held subject to the Company's articles of association from time to time [and, if so required by the Directors, the Shareholders' Agreement or any other agreement entered into by the Company's shareholders as at the date of exercise and (if such agreement then exists) no Shares shall be (or shall be required to be) issued to any Option Holder until such person has entered into a deed of adherence, in a form satisfactory to the Directors, whereby the Option Holder agrees to be bound by the terms of the Shareholders’ Agreement or other such agreement (and an Option Holder, by signing the Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints any Director as his power of attorney for the purposes of and authorises any such Director to execute such deed of adherence on the Option Holder’s behalf).]

7.3
An Option Holder, by signing the Agreement, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees:

18


7.3.1
to place the Company in funds and to indemnify the Company (or, if different, and at the Company’s direction, the Option Holder’s employer) in respect of all liability to income tax or other levies which the Company (or such other employer) is liable to account for on behalf of the Option Holder directly to HMRC or any other taxation authority (including, but without limitation, through the PAYE system), all liability to social security which the Company is liable to account for on behalf of the Option Holder to HMRC or any other taxation authority (including, but without limitation, primary class 1 (employee's) national insurance contributions) and any and all liability reasonably believed to be owing by the Company to any entity which arises as a consequence of or in connection with the Option; or
7.3.2
to permit the Company to sell, on behalf of the Option Holder, at the best price which it can reasonably obtain, such number of Shares allocated or allotted or transferred to the Option Holder following exercise as will provide the Company with an amount equal to the tax and/or social security for which it is obliged to account to the relevant tax authorities in consequence of the exercise of the Option and the Company hereby agrees duly and punctually to account for such tax to HMRC in accordance with the PAYE Regulations and to remit any excess proceeds of sale to the Option Holder (following deduction of any costs and/or expenses incurred in relation to such sale); and
7.3.3
to sign, promptly, all documents required by the Company to effect the terms of this Rule 7.3 (and where the Option Holder does not sign such documents within the required time scale the Option Holder agrees, by signing the Agreement, to the appointment of any authorised representative of the Company as his attorney for such purpose), and references in this Rule 7.3 to the "Company" shall, if applicable, be construed as references to the "Group".

7.4
If the Directors so determine, the exercise of an Option shall be conditional on the Option Holder executing a tax election under s431(1) of ITEPA to disapply fully the

19


provisions of Chapter 2 of Part 7 of ITEPA in respect of restricted securities in such form as is approved or agreed with HMRC under the terms of paragraph 431(5) of ITEPA.
7.5
If under the terms of a resolution passed or an announcement made by the Company prior to the date of exercise of an Option, a dividend is to be, or is proposed to be, paid to holders of Shares on the register on a date after the date of exercise, the Shares to be issued following such exercise will not rank for such dividend. Subject as aforesaid the Shares so to be issued shall be identical and rank pari passu in all respects with the fully paid Shares then in issue.

7.6
If and for so long as the Shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange or any other Securities Market, the Company shall apply for any Shares allotted under this Scheme to be admitted to the Official List or any similar list (including AIM) as the case may be.

7.7
The exercise of any Option (in whole or in part) shall not be permitted unless the Directors are satisfied at the relevant time that all conditions relating to such exercise pursuant to the Agreement and/or these Rules have been met and (if then applicable) that such exercise would not be in breach of the Model Code on directors' dealings in securities published by the UK Listing Authority, any other applicable laws, codes or regulations relating to the acquisition of securities, or the internal code of the Company.

8.
Roll‑Over
8.1
If any Acquiring Company:
8.1.1
obtains Control of the Company as a result of making:
8.1.1.1
a general offer to acquire the whole of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company which is made on a condition such that if it is satisfied the person making the offer will have Control of the Company; or

20


8.1.1.2
a general offer to acquire all issued shares in the Company which are of the same class as the Option Shares;

8.1.2
obtains Control of the Company in pursuance of a compromise or arrangement sanctioned by the court under sections 895 to 899 of the Companies Act 2006;
8.1.3
becomes bound or entitled to acquire Shares under sections 974 to 985 (inclusive) of the Companies Act 2006; or
8.1.4
obtains all the Shares of the Company as a result of a Qualifying Exchange of Shares;
any Option Holder may at any time within the Replacement Period, by agreement with the Acquiring Company, release his Option in consideration of the grant to him of rights comprised in a new option ("New Option") which is equivalent to his Option but relates to shares in the Acquiring Company itself. If such agreement is reached, every Option Holder shall be entitled to release his Option in consideration of the grant to him of a New Option which shall be an EMI Option, provided that:
8.1.5
the New Option is granted to the holder of the Option by reason of his employment;
8.1.5.1
with the Acquiring Company or;
8.1.5.2
if that company is a parent Company, with that company or another member of the Group;
8.1.6
at the time of the release of rights under the Option, the requirements of:
8.1.6.1
paragraph 4 of Schedule 5 (purpose of granting option); and
8.1.6.2
paragraph 7 of Schedule 5 (maximum value of options in respect of the relevant company's shares)

21


are met in relation to the New Option;

8.1.7
at that time, the independence requirement (as set out in paragraph 9 of Schedule 5) and the trading activities requirement (as set out in paragraph 13‑23 of Schedule 5) are met in relation to the Acquiring Company;

8.1.8
at that time, the individual to whom the New Option is granted is an Eligible Employee in relation to the Acquiring Company;

8.1.9
at that time, the requirements of Part 5 of Schedule 5 are met in relation to the New Option;

8.1.10
the total Market Value, immediately before the release, of the Shares which were subject to the Option is equal to the total Market Value, immediately after the grant of the New Option, of the shares in respect of which the New Option is granted; and

8.1.11
the total amount payable by the employee for the acquisition of shares in pursuance of the New Option is equal to the total amount that would have been payable for the acquisition of shares in pursuance of the Option.

8.2
References to Shares shall, in relation to the New Option, be taken as references to the shares of the company whose shares are scheme shares. References to the "Company" shall, where appropriate, be taken to be references to the company whose shares are the subject of the New Option.

8.3
In the event of a Qualifying Exchange of Shares, if the Option Holder is offered a New Option and does not accept the offer within the period set out in the offer, the Option shall lapse immediately on the expiry of that period and case to be capable of exercise under any of the provisions of these Rules.

22



9.
Variation of Share Capital
9.1
Upon the occurrence of any Variation the number or nominal value of Shares comprised in each Option and the Option Price thereunder may (but is not obliged to) be adjusted in such manner (including retrospective adjustment where a Variation occurs after the date of exercise) as the Directors may deem appropriate, provided always that no material increase shall be made to the aggregate Option Price in respect of any Option. Notice of any such adjustments to the terms of Options shall be given in writing to the Option Holders by the Directors. No adjustment shall cause Shares to be issued at less than their nominal value (save as permitted by Rule 9.2).
9.2
Any adjustment made to the Option Price of an Option granted over unissued Shares which would have the effect of reducing the Option Price to less than the nominal value of a Share, shall only be made if and to the extent that the Directors are authorised to capitalise from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the amount by which the aggregate nominal value of the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercisable exceeds the adjusted aggregate Option Price. The Directors may apply such sum in paying up such shortfall on such Shares so that, on the exercise of any Option in respect of which such a reduction shall have been made, the Directors shall capitalise such sum (if any) and apply the same in paying up such amount as aforesaid.
9.3
Where an Option subsists over both issued and unissued Shares, an adjustment may only be made under Rule 9.2 if the reduction of the Option Price in relation to Options over both issued and unissued Shares can be made to the same extent.
10.
Data Protection
The Company and the Employer Company (if different) from time to time (and/or the Trustee where appropriate) will collect, hold and process Option Holders' personal information for the purposes of the administration of this Scheme. The Company will not use such personal information for any purpose other than the

23


administration of the Scheme, unless the Option Holder's consent to that use is obtained.
11.
Administration

11.1
The decision of the Directors in relation to any dispute or question affecting any Option Holder or as to any rights or obligations of any person hereunder or in relation to the construction or effect hereof shall be final and conclusive.

11.2
The Company may, but shall not be obliged to, provide Eligible Employees or Option Holders with copies of any notices circulars or other documents sent to shareholders of the Company.

11.3
Within 92 days of granting an EMI Option under this Scheme notice shall be given to HMRC by the Employer Company and shall contain:

11.3.1
information required by HMRC pursuant to paragraph 44 of Schedule 5;

11.3.2
a declaration from a director or the company secretary of the Employer Company that, in his opinion, the requirements of Schedule 5 have been met in relation to an Option under this Scheme and that to the best of his knowledge, the information provided is correct and complete; and

11.3.3
a declaration from the Option Holder to whom the Option is granted that he meets the Committed Working Time requirement (and in the event that any proposed Option Holder fails to provide and execute such declaration, his Option shall, at the Directors discretion, be deemed to have lapsed and be of no further effect upon the expiry of the afore-mentioned 92 days period).

12.
Amendments

24


12.1
At any time when the Shares are admitted to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority, except with the prior sanction of the Company in general meeting, no alteration shall be made to this Scheme having the effect of:
12.1.1
amending the definition of "Eligible Employee";
12.1.2
altering, to the advantage of Option Holders (present or future), any of the provisions of this Scheme as to:
12.1.2.1
the definition of "Variation";
12.1.2.2
the limitations on the grant of Options;
12.1.2.3
the adjustment of Options pursuant to Rule 9;
12.1.2.4
subject to Rule 3.2, the restrictions on the exercise of Options;
12.1.2.5
the rights to be attached upon their acquisition, to Shares acquired upon the exercise of Options; or
12.1.2.6
the rights of Option Holders on the winding‑up of the Company or as to the transferability of Options

other than minor amendments to benefit the administration of the Scheme, to take account of a change in legislation or to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Eligible Employees, the Company or any other member of the Group.
12.2
Subject to Rule 12.1, the Directors may amend the Rules by a resolution of the Directors provided that where any alteration would abrogate or adversely affect the subsisting rights of an Option Holder it will not be effective unless such alteration is made with the consent in writing of the Option Holder.
12.3
Notwithstanding Rule 12.2 but subject to Rule 12.1, the Directors may amend the provisions of this Scheme and/or any Agreement and the terms of any Options as they consider necessary or desirable in order to:
12.3.1
make them more effective or easier for the administration of this Scheme;

25


12.3.2
comply with or take account of the provisions of any proposed or existing legislation;
12.3.3
take account of any of the events mentioned in Rule 8 (Roll‑Over); or
12.3.4
obtain or maintain favourable tax or regulatory treatment for the Company or any member of the Group or any Option Holder,

without the need for the consent of Option Holders provided that such amendments or additions do not affect the basic principles of this Scheme and/or any Agreement.
12.4
Notwithstanding Rule 12.2 but subject to rule 12.1, if HMRC raise a notice of enquiry pursuant to paragraph 46 of Schedule 5 and conclude that the requirements of Schedule 5 have not been met in relation to this Scheme and/or any Agreement (as the case may be) the Directors may alter the Rules as may be necessary to ensure that the requirements of Schedule 5 have been met.

12.5
No amendment shall have effect if it would cause the Scheme, so far as it relates to EMI Options, to cease to satisfy the provisions of Schedule 5.

12.6
Written notice of any amendment to this Scheme shall be given to all Option Holders affected thereby.

13.
General

13.1
This Scheme shall commence upon the date the Scheme is adopted.

13.2
The Company will at all times ensure that there are sufficient Shares available for issue or to be transferred in satisfaction of the exercise of all outstanding Options.

13.3
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Scheme, the grant of an Option will not form part of the Option Holder's entitlement to remuneration or benefits pursuant to

26


his contract of employment nor does the existence of a contract of employment between any person and any member of the Group give such person any right or entitlement to have an Option granted to him in respect of any number of Shares or any expectation that an Option will or might be granted to him whether subject to any conditions or at all. The rights and obligations of an Option Holder under the terms of his contract of employment with any member of the Group shall not be affected by the grant of an Option. The rights granted to an Option Holder upon the grant of an Option shall not afford the Option Holder any rights or additional rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the loss or termination of his office or employment with any member of the Group for any reason whatsoever. An Option Holder shall not be entitled to any compensation or damages for any loss or potential loss which he may suffer by reason of being or becoming unable to exercise an Option in consequence of the loss or termination of his office or employment with any member of the Group for any reason (including any breach of contract by his employer) or in any other circumstances whatsoever.

13.4
Any notice to be given to the Company shall be delivered or sent by either post or fax to the Company at its registered office and shall be effective upon receipt. Any notice or other document which the Company is required or may desire to give to any Option Holder pursuant to this Scheme shall be sufficiently given if delivered to him (if he is still an Eligible Employee) at his place of work or sent through the post in a prepaid cover addressed to the Option Holder at his address last known to the Company and if so sent shall be deemed to have been duly given on the date of posting. Any document so sent to an Option Holder shall be deemed to have been duly delivered notwithstanding that he be then deceased (and whether or not the Company has notice of his death) except where his legal personal representatives have established their title to the satisfaction of the Company and supplied to the Company an address to which documents are to be sent.

14.
Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999
Except as expressly provided by the Company, a person who is not an Option Holder or a company who is not a member of the Group has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to rely upon or enforce any provisions

27




of this Scheme, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from that Act. No Option Holder may declare himself a trustee of his rights under this Scheme for the benefit of any third parties.
15.
Governing Law

This Scheme and all Options granted under it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.
