c. an action taken with the intention to unlawfully gain personal profit; or
   
d. any fine, civil fine, financial sanction or penalty imposed on you.

 

 
 

 

 

4. Amount of indemnification.

 

a.

The maximum aggregate amount of indemnification to be paid by the Company to all Office Holders who are entitled to indemnification, whether in advance or retroactively, according to all the indemnification undertakings that the Company will grant to the Office Holders (including indemnification undertakings granted to Office Holders of its direct and indirect subsidiaries), if and to the extent it will grant the same, shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (i) 25% of shareholders’ equity (ii) USD 5 million (the “Maximum Indemnification Amount”).

For that purpose, the “effective shareholders’ equity of the Company” means the amount of the Company’s shareholders’ equity in accordance with the last consolidated audited or reviewed financial statements of the Company (as applicable) at the time of actual payment of the indemnification. It is hereby clarified that the indemnification shall be paid in excess of any amount paid under the D&O Insurance, which the Company has purchased or will purchase from time to time.

   
b. If the total of the amounts for which all Office Holders are entitled to indemnification exceeds the Maximum Indemnification Amount, each relevant Office Holder, including you, will receive indemnification based on the ratio between the amount for which such Office Holder is liable and the aggregate amount for which all Office Holders are liable with respect to such matter.
   
c.

In the event that you receive indemnification from an insurer in accordance with a directors and officers liability insurance policy with respect to a matter that is the subject of indemnification, the indemnification shall be granted in the amount of the difference between the indemnification due to the Office Holder according to this Undertaking for such indemnification, and the amount received from the insurer in respect of such matter, provided that the indemnification amount to which the Company has committed does not exceed the Maximum Indemnification Amount. In the event that you receive indemnification from the insurer as stated, the Company’s liability shall not be reduced according to this Undertaking and the amounts of the total indemnification may be beyond the amounts received from the insurance company up to the Maximum Indemnification Amount.

   
d.

Advances given, if given, to cover legal expenses in criminal proceedings will be repaid by you to the Company you are found guilty of a crime, which requires proof of mens rea. Other advances will be repaid by you to the Company if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Indemnitee is not lawfully entitled to such indemnification.

 

5. Conditions for granting indemnification.

 

a. You shall notify the Company of any judicial or administrative proceeding (“Legal Proceeding”) that may be initiated against you, and of any suspicion or threat that any such Legal Proceeding may be initiated against you, promptly after you first become aware of it, and you shall forward to the Company or to whomever is designated by the Company, without delay, any document you receive in connection with such proceeding. The failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation which it may have to the you under this Undertaking, or otherwise, unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially prejudices the Company.
   
b. the Company shall be entitled to assume your legal defense of such Legal Proceeding or to turn over such defense to any counsel selected by the Company for this purpose.

 

 
 

 

 

c. the Company or such counsel shall be exclusively entitled to conduct your legal defense and to conclude such proceeding as they deem fit. At the request of the Company, you shall sign any document authorizing the Company or such counsel to handle your defense in such proceeding and to represent you in all matters related thereto, in accordance with the above. the Company shall not be liable to indemnify you under this Undertaking for any amounts or expenses paid in connection with a settlement of any action, claim or otherwise, effected by you without the Company’s prior written consent.
   
d. If the Company acts in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c) above and you enable it to do so, the Company will cover all the other expenses and payments that are involved so that you will not be required to pay or finance them yourself, without this detracting from the indemnification to which you are entitled pursuant to this Undertaking.
   
e. You shall fully cooperate with the Company or any such counsel as may be required of you by any of them as part of their dealing with such Legal Proceeding, provided that the Company will cover all expenses involved so that you will not be required to pay or finance them yourself.

 

6. Legal Proceeding Involving the Company. the Company may, from time to time, ask you to participate in or otherwise assist in a Legal Proceeding brought by, against or otherwise involving the Company. In such case, the Company will advance or promptly reimburse your reasonable expenses incurred in connection with your participation or assistance in such Legal Proceeding, subject to such guidelines and procedures as may be established by the Company from time to time. The Company’s obligations under this Section 6 shall not be subject to the provisions or limitations of Sections 1 through 5 above.

 


II. Insurance

 

7. The Company undertakes that, subject to the mandatory limitations under applicable law, as long as it may be obligated to provide indemnification and advance expenses under this Undertaking, The Company will purchase and maintain in effect directors and officers liability insurance, which will include coverage for your benefit to the maximum extent of the coverage available for individual insured persons under such policy or policies, providing coverage in amounts as reasonably determined by the Board; provided that The Company shall have no obligation to obtain or maintain directors and officers liability insurance if The Company determines in good faith that such insurance is not reasonably available, the premium for such insurance is disproportionate to the amount of coverage provided, or the coverage provided by such insurance is so limited by exclusions that it provides an insufficient benefit. The Company hereby undertakes to notify you at least 30 days prior to the expiration or termination of any such directors and officers liability insurance.

 

8. The Company undertakes to give prompt written notice of the commencement of any claim hereunder to its insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in each of the potentially applicable policies. The Company shall thereafter diligently take all actions reasonably necessary under the circumstances to cause such insurers to pay, on your behalf, all amounts payable as a result of such action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation in accordance with the terms of such policies. The above shall not derogate from The Company’s authority to freely negotiate or reach any compromise with the insurers that, in The Company’s sole discretion, is reasonable, provided that The Company shall act in good faith and in a diligent manner.

 

 
 

 

 

9. The Company shall not be liable under this Undertaking to make any payment in connection with any indemnifiable event to the extent you have otherwise actually received payment under any insurance policy or otherwise (without any obligation on your part to repay any such amount) of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder. Any amounts paid to you under such insurance policy or otherwise after the Company has indemnified you for such liability or expense shall be repaid to the Company promptly upon receipt by you. The Company hereby acknowledges that from time to time you may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by shareholders of The Company, and certain of its affiliates and third parties (collectively, the “Secondary Indemnitors”). Subject to the terms and conditions of this Undertaking, the Company hereby agrees that (i) the Company is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e. its obligations to you are primary and any obligation of the Secondary Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by you is secondary); (ii) the Company shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by you and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Undertaking (or any other agreement between The Company and you), without regard to any rights you may have against the Secondary Indemnitors; and (iii) the Company irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Secondary Indemnitors from any and all claims The Company may have against the Secondary Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. Without altering or expanding any of The Company’s indemnification obligations hereunder, The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Secondary Indemnitors on behalf of you with respect to any claim for which you have sought indemnification from The Company shall affect the foregoing and the Secondary Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of you against The Company. The Company agrees that the Secondary Indemnitors are express third party beneficiaries of the terms of this section.

 

III. Exculpation

 

10. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, The Company hereby exculpates and releases you in advance and retrospectively from your responsibility, in whole or in part, to The Company with respect to damages related to any breach of the duty of care to The Company, except in those instances where The Company cannot exculpate you in advance from your responsibility to The Company, including with respect to the breach of the duty of care in connection with a “distribution” as such term is defined in the Companies Law.

 

IV. Validity of the Undertaking

 

11. This Undertaking relates to your performance as an Office Holder of The Company, or a director or officer, employee, observer, agent or fiduciary in the entities specified in the first paragraph of Section 1, and will be valid both with respect to proceedings taken against you during your term as an Office Holder, or director or officer, employee, observer, agent or fiduciary as above, and with respect to proceedings against you following the end of your term, provided that they relate to actions that were performed by you from the date on which your term of office commenced, either directly or indirectly, during or as a result of your being an Office Holder of The Company, or a director or officer, employee, observer, agent or fiduciary in the entities specified in the first paragraph of Section 1, and as a result thereof. This Undertaking shall also inure to the benefit of your heirs and other legal substitutes.

 

12. This Undertaking supersedes any prior undertaking for indemnification, if given to you in the past; however, this Undertaking does not derogate from or waive any other indemnification or exculpation to which you are entitled from any other source by applicable law or by any other undertaking.

 

13. This Undertaking shall not restrict The Company or prevent it from granting additional or special indemnification or exculpation, provided that this does not prejudice the indemnification and exculpation that are the subject of this Undertaking.

 

14. Your rights hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights that you may have under The Company’s Articles of Association, applicable law or otherwise, and to the extent that during the indemnification period the indemnification rights of the then-serving Office Holders are more favorable to such Office Holders than the indemnification rights provided hereunder to you, you shall be entitled to the full benefits of such more favorable indemnification rights to the extent permitted by law. To the extent that a change in the law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under The Company’s Articles of Association of The Company and this Undertaking, then you shall enjoy by this undertaking the greater benefits so afforded by such change.
