PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 6. Indemnification of Officer Holders (Including Directors).

Under the Israeli Companies Law 1999, or the Companies Law, a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty. An Israeli company may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of duty of care, but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in the company’s articles of association. Our articles of association to be effective immediately prior to the closing of this offering include such a provision. The company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising out of a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders.

Under the Companies Law, a company may indemnify an office holder for the following liabilities, payments and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either pursuant to an undertaking given by the company in advance of the act or following the act, provided its articles of association authorize such indemnification:

• a monetary liability imposed on him or her in favor of another person pursuant to a judgment, including a settlement or arbitrator’s award approved by a court. However, if an undertaking to indemnify an office holder with respect to such liability is provided in advance, then such an undertaking must be limited to events which, in the opinion of the board of directors, can be foreseen based on the company’s activities when the undertaking to indemnify is given, and to an amount, or according to criteria, determined by the board of directors as reasonable under the circumstances. Such undertaking shall detail the foreseen events and amount or criteria mentioned above;

• reasonable litigation expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder (1) as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by an authority authorized to conduct such investigation or proceeding, provided that (i) no indictment was filed against such office holder as a result of such investigation or proceeding; and (ii) no financial liability was imposed upon him or her as a substitute for the criminal proceeding as a result of such investigation or proceeding or, if such financial liability was imposed, it was imposed with respect to an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent (mens rea); and (2) in connection with a monetary sanction; and

• reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder or imposed by a court in proceedings instituted against him or her by the company, on its behalf, or by a third party, or in connection with criminal proceedings in which the office holder was acquitted, or as a result of a conviction for an offense that does not require proof of criminal intent (mens rea).

In addition, under the Companies Law, a company may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, if and to the extent provided in the company’s articles of association:

• a breach of a duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company;

• a breach of duty of care to the company or to a third party, to the extent such a breach arises out of the negligent conduct of the office holder; and

• a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party.

II-1

Under the Companies Law, a company may not indemnify, exculpate or insure an office holder against any of the following:

• a breach of the duty of loyalty, except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not harm the company;

• a breach of the duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;

• an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or

• a fine or penalty levied against the office holder.

Under the Companies Law, for the approval of exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders who are executive officers, directors and controlling shareholders, see the section of the prospectus that forms a part of this Registration Statement entitled “Management—Approval of Related Party Transactions Under Israeli Law.”

Our amended and restated articles of association to be effective immediately prior the closing of this offering permit us to exculpate, indemnify and insure our office holders to the fullest extent permitted under the Companies Law (other than indemnification for litigation expenses in connection with a monetary sanction).

We have entered into indemnification and exculpation agreements with each of our current office holders exculpating them from a breach of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Law and undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Law.

We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation or proceeding involving any of our office holders as to which indemnification is being sought, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any office holder.

The proposed form of Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Registration Statement provides for indemnification of our office holders by the underwriters against certain liabilities.

Item 7. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

Since January 1, 2011, after giving effect to the 1-to-4.5 forward share split of our shares to be effected prior to the completion of this offering:

• We have granted options to purchase an aggregate of 531,166 ordinary shares to our directors, officers, employees and service providers, in each case having an exercise price of $3.32 per share.

• We have issued and sold 154,634 ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of options held by our directors, officers and employees, having a weighted average exercise price per share of $1.72.

• In January 2011, we issued 343,080 Series D preferred shares at $11.21 per share to 11 investors.

• On April 30, 2013, we issued a convertible loan in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $10.0 million to 10 investors.

• In May 2014, we issued an aggregate of 1,495,331 Series E preferred shares to 21 investors, consisting of 413,096 Series E preferred shares at a purchase price of $11.95 per share and 1,082,235 Series E preferred shares issued upon conversion of our convertible loan that we received on July 1, 2013.

II-2

The sales and issuances of the above securities were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon (i) Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, including Regulation S promulgated thereunder, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering or involving offers and sales of securities outside the United States (ii) Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as exchanges of our securities with our existing security holders and no commission or remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchanges, or (iii) Rule 701, as issuances under our equity incentive plans.

Item 8. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

• The Exhibit Index is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

• Financial Statement Schedules.

All schedules have been omitted because they are not required, are not applicable or the information is otherwise set forth in the Financial Statements and related notes thereto.

Item 9. Undertakings.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 6 hereof, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

• To provide the underwriters specified in the Underwriting Agreement, at the closing, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

• That for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4), or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

• That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
