In connection with the Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) between the Company and the Bank dated March 29, 2017, the Company agrees to grant the Bank a Warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to 798,088 ordinary shares with a nominal value NIS 0.01 each of the Company (“Ordinary Shares”).

 

In consideration of the foregoing and for the purpose of defining the terms and provisions of the Warrant and the respective rights and obligations thereunder, the Company and the Bank hereby agree as follows:

 

1.Issue of Warrant

 

1.1.General. The Company hereby grants to the Bank an assignable (only to Permitted Transferees (as defined below) Warrant to purchase 798,088 Ordinary Shares (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrant may only be assigned to a Permitted Transferee in the event that the Bank makes a corporate decision to sell a portfolio of its holdings in startup companies (comprising of at least two companies), or in the event that the Bank is required by law (including instructions by the Israeli Banking Supervision authorities) to sell and/or transfer this Warrant and/or the Warrant Shares.

 

“Permitted Transferee” shall mean any entity in which the Bank has an equity interest of at least 5% or to any other reputable financial institution, bank or venture capital fund.

 

1.2.Registration. The Warrant shall be registered on the books of the Company when issued. Upon issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall provide the Bank with a confirmation from the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd.

1.3.Limited Rights of Warrant-Holder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Warrant shall, prior to an exercise thereof, be construed as conferring upon the Bank or any Permitted Transferee of the Bank (collectively, the “Warrant-Holder”) any rights as a shareholder of the Company, including (without limitation) the right to vote, receive dividends, consent or receive notices as a shareholder.

 

2.Exercise; Exercise Price

 

2.1.The exercise price per each Warrant Share shall be NISI.36 (One New Israeli Shekel, and Thirty-Six Agorot) per Warrant Share (the “Exercise Price”). The Exercise Price shall be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the terms set forth below.

 

 

 

2.2.Exercise on a Net-Issuance Basis. In lieu of payment to the Company of the Exercise Price per Warrant Share, as set forth in Subsection 2.1 above, a Warrant-Holder may exercise the Warrant (or any portion thereof), into the number of Ordinary Shares calculated pursuant to the following formula, by delivering the Warrant to the Company, accompanied by a written notice of exercise, specifying the number of shares for which the Warrant-Holder desires to exercise the Warrant:

 

X = Y(A - B)

    A

Where:

X = the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Warrant-Holder;

Y = the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which the Warrant Holder desires to exercise the Warrant;

A = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one Warrant Share; and

B = the Exercise Price of a Warrant Share, as adjusted.

“Fair Market Value” of a Warrant Share shall mean:

(i)       the closing price of an Ordinary Share, as reported on the principal stock exchange on which the Company's shares are traded at such time one (1) trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the Purchase Form / exercise notice; or

(ii)       If the Fair Market Value for the Warrant Shares cannot be determined in the manner set forth in sub section (i) above, then such Fair Market Value shall be as determined in good faith by the Company and the Warrant-Holder or, if the Company and the Warrant-Holder fail to reach an agreement, by any third party mutually agreed to by the Company and the Warrant-Holder who shall bear the cost of such third party in equal parts.

 

3.Exercise Period

 

  3.1. The Warrant-Holder may exercise part or all of the Warrant at any time, and from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, during the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the fourth anniversary thereof (i.e. at 23:59 Israel time on May 14, 2021) (the “Exercise Period”).

 

3.2.Upon the earlier of: (i) the expiry of the Exercise Period; or (ii) the exercise of this Warrant in full; the Warrant shall become null and void and shall no longer remain outstanding or exercisable.

 

3.3.Automatic Exercise. If at the time of expiry of the Warrant Period for any portion of the Warrant, a portion of the Warrant has not been exercised, such portion of the Warrant will be deemed to have been exercised in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 at the date of expiry of the Warrant Period.

 

4.Warrant Shares

 

4.1.Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company represents that it has reserved and shall at all times keep reserved, for so long as any Warrant remains outstanding, out of its authorized share capital, such number of Ordinary Shares as may be subject to purchase under the outstanding Warrant.

 

4.2.Exercise of Warrants; Issue of Warrant Shares.

 

4.2.1.The Warrant Holder shall exercise the Warrant (or any portion thereof) by delivering to the Company a duly executed Purchase Form, a form of which is attached to this Agreement, provided, however, that in each single exercise of a portion of the Warrant (except for the last portion), the Warrant Holder will exercise such portion in an exercise amount of at least NIS 200,000.

 

 -2- 

 

4.2.2.Within three (3) business days following surrender of this Warrant and (unless the Warrant Holder elects to exercise the Warrant on a net-issuance basis) payment of the Exercise Price as set forth herein, the Company shall issue and cause to be delivered to the Nominee Company of Mizrachi Tefahot Bank Ltd. (the “Nominee Company”) a certificate or certificates (the “Warrant Share Certificate”) representing the number of Warrant Shares so purchased upon the exercise of the Warrant in the name of the Nominee Company. The Warrant Share Certificate shall be credited to the bank account/TASE member account of the Warrant-Holder, details of which shall be provided by the Warrant-Holder to the Company within the Purchase Form.

 

4.2.3.Subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations (including stock exchange rules), such Warrant Share Certificate or Certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of such Warrant Shares as of the date of surrender of the Warrant being exercised and payment of the Exercise Price, to the extent applicable, notwithstanding that the Warrant Share Certificate or Certificates representing such shares shall not actually have been delivered or that the shareholders register of the Company has yet to be updated.

 

4.2.4.Each Warrant shall be exercisable, at the election of the Warrant-Holder, either in full or from time to time in part and, in the event of a partial exercise of the Warrant at any time prior to the expiry of the Exercise Period, a new certificate evidencing the remaining amount applicable to the Warrant will be issued to the Warrant Holder by the Company.

 

4.2.5.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any or all of the Warrants may not be exercised on the record date with respect to the distribution of bonus shares, offer by way of rights issue, distribution of dividends, consolidation of share capital, consolidation of shares, reduction or split in share capital (each hereinafter referred to as a “Corporate Event”). In addition, if the ex-date with respect to a Corporate Event occurs before the record date relating to such Corporate Event, then the exercise of Warrants shall not occur on such ex-date.

 

5.Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares

 

Subject to applicable laws, rules and regulations (including stock exchange rules), the Exercise Price and/or the number and type of securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant, as applicable, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time (at any time during the Exercise Period and prior to the exercise of the Warrant in full) upon the happening of certain events, as follows:

 

5.1.Bonus Shares. In the event the Company distributes bonus shares, the Warrant-Holder upon exercising the Warrant shall be issued by the Company (for the exercise price payable upon such exercise, if any), the Ordinary Shares as to which he is exercising the Warrant and, in addition thereto (at no additional cost), such number of shares of the class or classes in which such bonus shares were distributed, on the same terms and conditions as offered to the other shareholders, which he would have received if he had been the holder of the Ordinary Shares as to which he is exercising the Warrant at all times between the date of issuance of the Warrant and the date of its exercise.

 

 -3- 

 

In the event that the Warrant Holder will exercise the Warrant on a Net-issuance Basis (in accordance with Section 2.2 above) immediately following a distributions of bonus shares, then the Exercise Price per Warrant Share will be reduced by the ratio of the bonus shares distribution (i.e., the number of bonus shares distributed divided by the total number of Ordinary Shares immediately following the said distribution of bonus shares), and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to Warrant Holder on a Net-Issuance Basis shall be calculated based on the following formula:

 

Y= R*X *(MP- (EP/R))/MP
Y The number of shares issued upon the exercise of the Warrant following the issuance of bonus shares.
X Number of Ordinary Shares exercised by the Warrant Holder.
R The result of: (i) the total number of Ordinary Shares immediately following the distribution of bonus shares; divided by (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the distribution of bonus shares.
MP The price of an Ordinary Share on the stock exchange immediately following the distribution of bonus shares.
EP Exercise Price

 

For illustration purposes only, in the event the Company granted the Bank a Warrant to 100 Ordinary Shares at an Exercise Price of NIS55 per Warrant Share, and following that the Company distributed bonus shares at a 1:1 ratio while the price of an Ordinary Share on the TASE prior to the distribution of the bonus shares was N1S 80 and immediately following such distribution of bonus shares was NIS 40, then upon the cashless exercise of such Warrant immediately following the distribution of bonus shares, the number of Warrant Shares issued to the Participant would be 62 Ordinary Shares pursuant to the following calculation:

 

[200 x (40-27.5)/40] = 62.5

 

The number of Warrant Shares resulting as of the said distribution shall be 62 Ordinary Shares only as no fractional shares will be issued.

 

5.2.Rights Offering. In the event of a rights offering conducted by the Company, the number of Warrant Shares issued as a result of the exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted to the benefit component (“markiv hahatava” in Hebrew) in the rights offering as reflected in the ratio between the closing price of an Ordinary Share on the stock exchange on the last trading prior to the ex-day and the basis price of an Ordinary Share on the stock exchange ex-rights. Notwithstanding the above, the Exercise Price shall not be reduced in any event to less than the higher of: (i) nominal value of an Ordinary Shares; (ii) minimum exercise price according to the stock exchange by laws (if and to the extent that the stock exchange by laws indeed imposes such a limitation on such an issuance of Warrant Shares).

 

5.3.Dividend. In the event the Company distributes cash dividends, then the Exercise Price for each Ordinary Share underlying such Warrant, not exercised prior to such record date, shall be reduced, as of the record date determining the right to receive such dividend, by the gross dividend amount so distributed per Warrant Share.

 

 -4- 

 

However, in any event, the Exercise Price shall not be reduced to less than the higher of: (i) the par value of an Ordinary Share; (ii) minimum exercise price according to the stock exchange by laws (if and to the extent that the stock exchange by laws indeed imposes such a limitation on such an issuance of Warrant Shares).

 

5.4.Adjustment Upon a Consolidation or Merger. In the event that the Company shall consolidate or merge with or into another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation or other entity, then, in each such case, the Warrant Holder shall, upon any exercise of the Warrant, at any time after the consummation of such consolidation, merger, or conveyance, be entitled to receive, in lieu of the Warrant Shares or other securities and property receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant prior to such consummation, the shares or other securities or property to which the Warrant-Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such consolidation, merger or conveyance if the Warrant Holder had exercised the Warrant immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section; and in each such case, the terms of the Warrant (including exercisability, transfer and adjustment provisions of the Warrant) shall be applicable to the shares or other securities or property receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant after the consummation of such consolidation, merger or conveyance.

 

5.5.Adjustment Upon Reorganization. If the Company shall subdivide or combine its Ordinary Shares, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares (and the number of Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately increased), as at the effective date of such subdivision, or if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so subdividing, as at such record date, whichever is earlier, or shall be proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares (and the number of Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant shall be proportionately reduced), as at the effective date of such combination, or, if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so combining, as at such record date, whichever is earlier.

 

5.6.Adjustment Upon spin-off. In the event that the Company shall issue securities of a subsidiary to its shareholders (as a result of a split-off, spin-off or the like) then the Exercise Price for each Ordinary Share underlying the Warrant (not exercised prior to such record date) shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in the ratio between: (1) the basis price of an Ordinary Share on the stock exchange ex- split-off, spin-off or the like; and (2) the closing price of an Ordinary Share on the stock exchange on the last trading prior to the ex-day for such a split-off, spin-off or the like.

 

Notwithstanding the above, the Exercise Price shall not be reduced in any event to less than the higher of: (i) nominal value of an Ordinary Shares; (ii) minimum exercise price according to the stock exchange by laws (if and to the extent that the stock exchange by laws indeed imposes such a limitation on such an issuance of Warrant Shares).

 

5.7.No Impairment. The Company will not, through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, amendment of its memorandum or articles of association or any other organizational document, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of the Warrant and in the taking of all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrant-Holder against impairment.

 

 -5- 

 

5.8.Notice of Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to the provisions contained herein, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to the Warrant-Holder a certificate setting forth each adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

 

5.9.Notice of Record Date. In the event of any taking by the Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive any dividend (including a cash dividend) or other distribution, any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of any class or any other securities or property, or to receive any other right, the Company shall provide to the Warrant-Holder a notice (including through public filings), which shall be sent simultaneously with the notice sent to other shareholders of the Company, specifying the date on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right.

 

5.10.No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares shall be issued upon exercise of all or any portion of the Warrant, and the number of Warrant Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share (with cash being paid by the Company for any unissued fractional shares).

 

6.Notice of Events

 

In the event that the Company files an immediate report regarding: (i) issuance of bonus shares (according to Section 5(i) above); or (ii) issuance of rights (according to Section 5(ii) above); or (iii) distribution of dividend (according to Section 5(iii) above); or (iv) a merger transaction (according to Section 5(iv) above); or (v) a reorganization (according to Section 5(v) above); or (vi) a spin off (according to Section 5(vi) above); or (vii) issuance of any securities of the Company other than: (i) issuance of securities under any of the Company's Employee Stock Options Plan; (ii) securities issued following an exercise of any of the securities mentioned in sub section (i); or (viii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company assets to another person; or (ix) a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company ("Special Event") the Company shall, on the same day it files such an immediate report, provide a copy of such immediate report to the Warrant-Holder (the “Company Notice”).

4.2.5.Adjustments

 

The Bank’s Options shall be subject to the following adjustments:

Below is the formula regarding the manner by which the quantity of shares that the Bank shall receive following an allocation of bonus shares shall be calculated, taking into account that the allocation shall be made on a cashless basis (meaning, according to the bonus value, as specified in Section 4.3, below).5

 

  Y = R * X * (MP – EP/R)/MP
Y The number of shares that will be allocated to the Bank with respect to the exercise of the Bank’s Options after distribution of the bonus shares.
X The number of the Bank’s Options that are exercised.
R The result obtained by dividing: (1) The number of Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately after the distribution of the bonus shares, by (2) the number of Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately prior to the distribution of the bonus shares.
MP The price of an Ordinary Share of the Company on the stock exchange immediately after distribution of the bonus shares.
EP The original exercise price (prior to adjustment).

 

Similarly, in the event the Bank exercises the Options on a cashless basis (as specified in Section 4.3, below) immediately after the Company executes an allocation of bonus shares, then an exercise price adjustment will be made for the Bank’s Options, and it will be reduced according to the ratio between the total number of bonus shares allocated and the total number of Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately after distribution of the bonus shares.

 

 

 

5It is noted that the Bank may, but is not required to, at its discretion, exercise the Bank’s Options, in whole or in part, on a cashless basis.

 

 6 

 

 

4.2.5.1.Allocation of Rights - In the event of an allocation of rights by the Company to its shareholders, the number of shares stemming from the exercise of the Bank’s Options shall be adjusted to the bonus component in the allocation of rights, as expressed in the ratio between the closing share price on the stock market on the last trading day prior to the “X” day and the base price of the “X-rights” share.

 

4.2.5.2.Dividend - In the event the Company distributes a cash dividend, the exercise price of the Bank’s Options shall be decreased by the gross amount of the dividend received with respect to one Ordinary Share of the Company but, in any event, the exercise price of the Bank’s Options shall not be decreased to an amount less than: (1) The par value of one Ordinary Share of the Company; (2) the minimum exercise price according to the stock exchange’s bylaws (to the extent such a price is indeed stipulated in the stock exchange’s bylaws and to the extent it is relevant under such circumstances), whichever is higher.

 

4.2.5.3.Merger - In the event the Company shall be a party to a merger or shall transfer most of its assets to another corporation (hereinafter in this Section: “Merger”), then at the time the Bank’s Options are exercised (after the merger is executed), the Bank shall be entitled to receive shares or securities or other property that it would have been entitled to receive in the framework of the merger had it exercised the Bank’s Options prior to execution of the Merger.

 

 7 

 

 

4.2.5.4.Changes in the Company’s Equity - In the event of the execution of a split or consolidation of the Company’s share capital, the exercise price shall be reduced accordingly in the event of an equity split (and the number of shares stemming from the exercise of the Bank’s Options will increase accordingly) as of the date of execution of said change in equity or as of the effective date of the change in equity (to the extent such effective date is stipulated), whichever is earlier or, alternatively, the exercise price will increase accordingly in the event of an equity consolidation (and the number of shares stemming from the exercise of the Bank’s Options shall decrease accordingly) as of the date of execution of said change in equity or as of the effective date of the change in equity (to the extent such effective date is stipulated), whichever is earlier.

 

4.2.5.5.Spin-off - In the event the Company executes the distribution of shares of a subsidiary to shareholders of the Company or performs any similar action, the exercise price of the Bank’s Options shall be adjusted such that it shall be multiplied by the ratio stemming from the distribution of: (A) The base price of the share “X” such distribution; by (B) the closing price of the share on the stock exchange on the last training day prior to the “X” day of such distribution. Notwithstanding the above, in any event the exercise price shall not be decreased to an amount less than: (1) The par value of one Ordinary Share of the Company; [or] (2) the minimum exercise price according to the stock exchange’s bylaws (to the extent such a price is indeed stipulated in the stock exchange’s bylaws and to the extent it is relevant under such circumstances), whichever is higher.

 

4.3.Cashless Exercise Mechanism

 

The exercise of the Options which have vested may be done, at the Bank’s discretion, by means of a cashless type exercise mechanism such that the Bank shall be entitled to receive Ordinary Shares of the Company, subject to the above described adjustments, according to the following formula:

 

 8 

 

 

  X = A*(B-C)/B
A The number of Options which the Bank wishes to exercise according to the exercise notice.
B Fair market value equal to the closing price of a share of the Company on the stock exchange on the last trading day prior to the date of delivery of the exercise notice.6
C The exercise price.
X The number of shares that shall be allocated to an Offeree after exercise of the Options by means of the cashless mechanism.

4.4.1.The Options shall not be registered for trade on the stock exchange.

The Company shall contact the stock exchange immediately after publication of this immediate report with an application to register the Exercise Shares for trade.

 

4.4.3.The Exercise Shares shall be registered in the name of the registration company.

 

4.5.Restrictions Relating to Exercise Dates

5.1.There are no Options of the same type registered for trade on the stock exchange. The closing price of an Ordinary Share of the Company on the stock exchange on March 29, 2017 (the trading day prior to the date of publication of this immediate report) stood at the sum of NIS 1.312 (hereinafter: the “Closing Price”).

 

5.2.The exercise price of the Consultant’s Options and the Bank’s Options is NIS 1.36 and is higher than the Closing Price by approximately 3.7%.

 9 

 

 

6.Economic Value of the Options

 

The economic value of the Options that will be allocated under this immediate report is as specified in the table, below.

 

The fair market valuation of the Options was done using the Black–Scholes model which is the accepted model for pricing options, taking into account the closing price of a share of the Company on the stock exchange on March 29, 2017, which was NIS 1.312 per share, and in accordance with the assumptions specified, below.

 

Option Type  Consultant Option   Bank Option 
Standard Deviation (1)   57.6%   57.6%
Average Life Span (2)   3.2 Years    4 Years 
Annual Capitalization Rate (3)   0.6%   0.4%
Exercise Price (in NIS)   1.36    1.36 
Number of Securities   100,000    798,088 
Fair Value of One Security (in NIS)   0.51    0.57 
Fair Value of All Securities (thousands of NIS)   51    457 

 

Assumptions:

 

(1)The standard deviation was calculated according to the historical daily share price.
(2)Regarding the Consultant's Option, the average of the end of the vesting period and the last day of the security’s exercise period (the “Theoretical Exercise Date”) and, with regard to the Bank's Option, as of the allocation date and until the last day of the exercise period.
(3)The annual capitalization rate for a security is determined according to the yield of a government bond at an average life span equal to the mean life span of the security.
(4)Assuming the exercise of all the Options and the allocation of all of the Exercise Shares.
(5)Calculation of the economic value does not take into account the restriction of the securities by law.

 

 The amount of the expense that will be recorded in the Company's books with respect to the allocation of the Options to the Offerees will be in the amount of said economic value (updating the calculation according to changes in the price of a share of the Company, no risk interest rates, and the level of the share's volatility, as of the date of the actual allocation of the securities, after receiving approval of the stock exchange), such that the economic value will be spread over the entire exercise period.

 

 10
