1. Q2 Dividend Distribution

Item 1

Q2 Dividend Distribution

The Company hereby reports that its Board of Directors, at its meeting held on August 2, 2017, resolved to declare a cash dividend out of the Company’s earnings from the second quarter of 2017, in the amount of about US$ 32 million or about US$ 0.02450 per share.

Some shareholders will receive the dividend payment in New Israeli Shekels (NIS) and need to take into account the following: the amount of the dividend per share is not final and is subject to changes due to the need to convert the amount from US dollars to NIS, according to Bank of Israel's representative exchange rate on August 28, 2017. 

The dividend will be paid only to registered shareholders entitled to receive US$2 or more.

The record date is August 29, 2017 and the payment date is September 13, 2017. From the current dividend payment, Israeli tax will be withheld at the following rates: (1) with respect to approximately 37% of the dividend, an Israeli‑resident company is exempt from payment of tax; an Israeli‑resident individual of Israel will be charged for tax at the rate of 25%; and foreign residents (individuals and companies) will be charged for tax at the rate of 25% or in accordance with the applicable international tax treaties – whichever is lower; (2)regarding to approximately 63% of the dividend, an Israeli‑resident company will be charged for tax at the rate of15%, an Israeli‑resident individual will be charged for tax at the rate of15%, and foreign residents (individuals and companies) will be charged for tax at the rate of 4%, or in accordance with the applicable international tax treaties – whichever is lower.
