Israel time, at the offices of Naschitz, Brandes, Amir & Co., Advocates, located at 5 Tuval Street, Tel-Aviv, Israel.

In light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Company reserves the option to convert the Meeting from a physical meeting to a non-physical meeting at a later date. In such event, the Company will issue a press release and furnish a Form 6-K or other document with the SEC prior to the date of the Meeting outlining the manner in which shareholders may attend the virtual meeting.

The agenda of the Meeting shall be as follows:
 
1.
Approval of the re-appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., as our independent certified public accountants, effective as of the approval by the Meeting until our next Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and delegation to the Company's Board of Directors (or, the Audit Committee, if authorized by the Board of Directors) the authority to determine the accountants' remuneration in accordance with the volume and nature of their services;

4.
Renewing the Company's Compensation Policy for an additional three (3) years.

In addition, the shareholders will be invited to discuss at the Meeting the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The approval of each of Items 1, 2 and 3 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on the matter in person or by proxy.
 
The approval of each of Item 4 requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the shares present, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter, provided that (i) such a majority includes at least a majority of the total votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders of the Company or who do not have personal interest excluding a personal interest that is not related to a relationship with the controlling shareholders in the approval of the proposal set forth in Item 4; or (ii) the total number of shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against such proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.
 
In the proxy card attached to the proxy statement, you will be asked to indicate whether or not you are a controlling shareholder of the Company or whether or not you have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal set forth in Item 4. If any shareholder casting a vote does not notify us whether or not they are a controlling shareholder of the Company or whether or not they have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal set forth in Item 4, their vote, with respect to this Item, will be disqualified.
 

 
Under the Companies Law, in general, a person will be deemed to be a controlling shareholder if the person has the power to direct the activities of the company, otherwise than by reason of being a director or other office holder of the company. A shareholder will be deemed to have a personal interest if any member of such shareholder's immediate family or their spouse has a personal interest in the adoption of the relevant proposal.  In addition, a shareholder will be deemed to have a personal interest if a company, other than TAT Technologies, that is affiliated to such shareholder has a personal interest in the adoption of the relevant proposal.  Such company is a company in which the shareholder or a member of such shareholder's immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, a shareholder will not be deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if the shareholder's interest in such proposal arises solely from ownership of TAT Technologies' shares, or to a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.
 
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on October 11, 2022, (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at the Meeting. All shareholders are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person.

ITEM 1: APPROVAL OF THE RE-APPOINTMENT OF KESSELMAN & KESSELMAN PWC ISRAEL, A MEMBER OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS INTERNATIONAL LTD., AS OUR INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE APPROVAL BY THE MEETING UNTIL OUR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, AND DELEGATION TO THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS (OR, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE, IF AUTHORIZED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS) THE AUTHORITY TO DETERMINE THE ACCOUNTANTS' REMUNERATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE VOLUME AND NATURE OF THEIR SERVICES.

Under the Companies Law and the Company’s articles of association, the shareholders of the Company are authorized to appoint the Company’s independent certified public accountants. In addition, the approval by the Company’s Audit Committee of the re-appointment and remuneration of the independent certified public accountants is required under the corporate governance rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market.
 
We first appointed Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., as our independent certified public accountants in 2009. Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel has no relationship with us or any of our affiliates except as auditors.
 
At the Meeting, and in accordance with the recommendation of our Audit Committee and Board of Directors, the shareholders will be asked to approve the re-appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel as our independent registered public accountants effective as of the approval by the Meeting and until the Company's next Annual Meeting of Shareholders. As a result of Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel’s familiarity with our operations and its reputation in the auditing field, our Audit Committee and Board of Directors believe that Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel has the necessary personnel, professional qualifications and independence to act as our independent certified public accountants.
 
At the Meeting, the shareholders will also be asked to delegate to our Board of Directors (or, the Audit Committee, if authorized by the Board of Directors) the authority to determine the remuneration of our independent certified public accountants according to the volume and nature of their services. With respect to fiscal year 2021, we approved payment to Kesselman & Kesselman PwC Israel of approximately 192,834 US$ for audit services (including special approvals) and 17,685 US$ for tax-related services.
 
It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt the following resolution:
 
RESOLVED, THAT THE RE-APPOINTMENT OF KESSELMAN & KESSELMAN PWC ISRAEL, A MEMBER OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS INTERNATIONAL LTD., AS THE INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF THE COMPANY EFFECTIVE AS OF THE APPROVAL BY THE MEETING AND UNTIL THE COMPANY'S NEXT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS, BE AND HEREBY IS APPROVED, AND IT IS FURTHER RESOLVED, THAT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (OR, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE, IF AUTHORIZED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS) BE, AND HEREBY ARE, AUTHORIZED TO DETERMINE THE REMUNERATION OF SUCH AUDITORS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE VOLUME AND NATURE OF THEIR SERVICES.”

ITEM 2: APPROVAL OF THE RE-ELECTION OF EACH OF MR. AMOS MALKA AND MS. RONNIE MENINGER (INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR), AND THE ELECTION OF GILLON BECK TO SERVE AS DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY EACH TO HOLD OFFICE UNTIL OUR NEXT ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS.
 
The Company's Articles of Association provide for a Board of Directors consisting of no less than two and no more than eleven members. Our Board of Directors is currently composed of 5 directors (prior to this Meeting), including two external director appointed in accordance with the Companies Law. Our directors, other than our external directors, are elected at each annual meeting of shareholders. All the members of our Board of Directors (except the external directors who may be re-elected pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions stipulated in the Companies Law) may be re-elected upon completion of their term of office.
 
At the Meeting, our shareholders are being asked to re-elect Mr. Amos Malka and Ms. Ronnie Meninger (Independent Director) to serve as directors of the Company, to hold office until our next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and to elect Mr. Gillon Beck to serve as director of the Company, to hold office until our next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.
 
Under the Companies Law, the Board of Directors of a public company is required to determine the minimum number of directors with “accounting and financial expertise” who will serve on the board. Our Board of Directors determined that at least two directors must have “accounting and financial expertise” as such term is defined by regulations promulgated under the Companies Law. The audit committee determined on July 18th 2022 that Ms. Ronnie Meninger qualifies as an “independent” director within the meaning of this term under the Companies Law.
 
We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. As such, we are exempt from the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules requirement that a majority of a company’s Board of Directors must qualify as independent directors within the meaning of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. We are also exempt from the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules requirement regarding the process for the nomination of directors; instead, we follow Israeli law and practice in accordance with which directors are proposed by the Board of Directors and elected by the shareholders, unless otherwise provided in a company’s articles of association. Our articles of association provide that the directors (except the external directors) may also be appointed by a vote of a majority of directors then in office. Our practice has been that our director nominees are presented in our proxy statement for election at our annual meetings of shareholders.

Board Diversity
 
We are dedicated to ensuring equality and diversity in our Company. Our Board of Directors has no specific policy on director diversity. However, the Board reviews diversity of viewpoints, background, experience, accomplishments, education and skills when evaluating nominees. In addition, Nasdaq’s recently adopted Board Diversity Rule is a disclosure standard designed to encourage a minimum board diversity objective for companies and provide stakeholders with consistent, comparable disclosures concerning a listed company’s current board composition. Once the Board Diversity Rule becomes effective in August 2022, a company that is a “foreign private issuer” (as defined in SEC rules) like TAT will be required to initially have, or explain why it does not have, at least one director who self-identifies as female, an underrepresented minority or LGBTQ+. Our current board composition is in compliance with these requirements. Each term used above and, in the matrix, below has the meaning given to it in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(f). The matrix below provides certain highlights of the composition of our Board members based on self-identification as of October 3, 2022.

The Company's compensation committee, followed by the Board of Directors, approved the amended and restated the company's 2012 Stock Option Plan and the company's 2022 Stock Option Plan (the "2012 Stock Option Plan" and "2022 Stock Option Plan", respectively). The proposed Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Option Plan are marked to show the proposed changes from the existing option plan, and are attached hereto as Appendix B.
 
Our 2012 Stock Option Plan applies to an option pool equal to an aggregate amount of 980,000 Ordinary Shares. The main amendment in the Amended and Restated Company's 2012 Stock Option Plan is excluding the Israeli Options awards by the 2012 Stock Options, from the 10 years limitation that should relate only to the ISOs Options.

The Company's compensation committee, followed by the Board of Directors, approved the Company's 2022 Stock Option Plan. The proposed 2022 Stock Option Plan applies to an additional option pool of up to 550,000 Ordinary Shares under the 2022 Stock Option Plan and will have the same terms and conditions as the 2012 Stock Option Plan with the required changes. The Company's 2022 Stock Option Plan is attached hereto as Appendix C.
 
THE VOTE FOR EACH OF 2012 STOCK OPTION PLAN AND 2022 STOCK OPTION PLAN SHALL BE SEPARATELY.
It is therefore proposed that the Meeting of the shareholders adopts the following resolution:
 
"RESOLVED, TO APPROVE THE AMENDED AND RESTATED COMPANY'S 2012 STOCK OPTION PLAN IN THE FORM ATTACHED HERETO AS APPENDIX B".

FURTHER RESOLVED, TO APPROVE THE 2022 STOCK OPTION PLAN IN THE FORM ATTACHED HERETO AS APPENDIX C".

ITEM 4: APPROVAL OF THE AMENDED COMPENSATION POLICY OF THE COMPANY FOR AN ADDITIONAL THREE (3) YEARS.

According to the Israeli Companies Law ("ICL"), all public Israeli companies, including companies whose shares are publicly-traded outside of Israel, such as TAT Technologies, are required to adopt a written compensation policy for their executive officers and directors, which addresses certain items prescribed by the ICL.
 
In accordance with the ICL, the Compensation Policy must be approved by the Company's Board, following the recommendation of the Company's Compensation Committee and the Shareholders of the Company (except in limited circumstances set forth in the ICL).
 
In accordance with the ICL requirement, in 2020 our Compensation Committee and subsequently our Board of Directors and shareholders reviewed, updated and approved the compensation policy (effective until July 2, 2023).
 
In order to enable the Company to attract and retain highly skilled executives, our Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s compensation policy and recommended to updated the following changes to the written compensation policy: (a) Increase of the base salary caps by 10% for Executive Officers (excluding CEO, Directors and Chairman); and (b) Splitting the current base salary caps for Executives Officers located in Israel and outside of Israel. A copy of the proposed updated compensation policy for Office Holders is attached as Appendix D hereto which is marked to show changes from the compensation policy approved by the shareholders in 2020 (the “Updated Compensation Policy”). Our Board of Directors subsequently approved the policy and recommended that it be adopted by the shareholders. 
 
Our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR" this resolution.
 
  It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt the following resolution:
 
RESOLVED, TO REAPPROVE THE UPDATED COMPENSATION POLICY AS SET FORTH IN APPENDIX D ATTACHED HERETO FOR AN ADDITIONAL THREE (3) YEARS."

CONSIDERATION OF THE ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In addition to voting on Items 1 through 4 as described above, the shareholders will be invited to discuss at the Meeting the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

OTHER BUSINESS
 
The Management knows of no other business to be acted upon at the Meeting. However, if any other business properly comes before the Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote upon such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

(b)          Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(g), in the event of any such change in the capital structure or business of the Company by reason of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin‑off, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, issuance of rights or warrants to purchase any Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares, any sale or transfer of all or part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing and effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, then the Committee shall, subject to applicable law and stock exchange regulations, make such adjustments consistent with such change in such manner as the Committee deems equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under this Plan, to the aggregate number and kind of shares that thereafter may be issued under this Plan, and the number and kind of shares or other property (including cash) to be issued upon exercise of an outstanding Award and the purchase price thereof and the numerical Share limits in Section 4.1 of the Plan. Any such adjustment determined by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and all Participants and employees and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.  Except as provided in this Section 4.2 or in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no rights by reason of any issuance by the Company of any class or securities convertible into stock of any class, any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any stock dividend, any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class, any sale or transfer of all or part of the Company’s assets or business or any other change affecting the Company’s capital structure or business.
 
B - 10

(c)          Fractional Ordinary Shares resulting from any adjustment in Awards pursuant to Section 4.2(a) or (b) shall be aggregated until, and eliminated at, the time of exercise by rounding-down for fractions less than one-half and rounding-up for fractions equal to or greater than one-half, unless and to the extent another rounding method is required by applicable law or stock exchange regulations.  No cash settlements shall be made with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding.  Notice of any adjustment shall be given by the Committee to each Participant whose Award has been adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not such notice is given) shall be effective and binding for all purposes of this Plan.
 
(d)          Should the Company declare a cash dividend to its shareholders, and the distribution date of such dividend will precede the exercise date of an Option, including for the avoidance of doubt, Options that have yet to become vested and Options which have been granted prior to the adoption of the amendment to this Plan dated August 30, 2018, unless the Committee otherwise determines, subject to applicable law and stock exchange regulations, the Exercise Price shall be reduced in the amount equal to the cash dividend per Share distributed by the Company.
 
(e)          To the extent required by applicable stock exchange regulations, no Award shall be exercised on the record date, or the ex-date if earlier in time to such record date, of stock dividend, other distribution of dividends, rights offering, stock split, reverse stock split or reduction of authorized share capital.
 
(f)          In the event of issuance of rights made by the Company to the shareholders during the existence of the right to exercise the Award, the number of shares resulting from exercising the Award shall be adjusted to the beneficial component of the rights, as expressed in the ratio between the Stock Market closing exchange rate on the last trading day before the "X day" and, the base rate of the "X rights.
 
(g)          In the event of an Acquisition Event, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate all outstanding and unexercised Awards effective as of the date of the Acquisition Event, by delivering notice of termination to each Participant at least 20 days prior to the date of consummation of the Acquisition Event, in which case during the period from the date on which such notice of termination is delivered to the consummation of the Acquisition Event, each such Participant shall have the right to exercise in full all of his or her Awards that are then outstanding (subject to any limitations on exercisability otherwise contained in the Award agreements), but any such exercise shall be contingent on the occurrence of the Acquisition Event, and, provided that, if the Acquisition Event does not take place within a specified period after giving such notice for any reason whatsoever, the notice and exercise pursuant thereto shall be null and void.
 
If an Acquisition Event occurs but the Committee does not terminate the outstanding Awards pursuant to this Section 4.2(g), then the provisions of Section 4.2(b) and Article VII shall apply.
 
(h)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 4.2(d) and 4.2(f) shall not apply to any grants of ISOs to Optionees under the Plan.
 
B - 11

4.3          Minimum Purchase Price.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if authorized but previously unissued Ordinary Shares are issued under this Plan, such shares shall not be issued for a consideration that is less than as permitted under applicable law.
 
ARTICLE V

ELIGIBILITY
 
5.1          General Eligibility. All Eligible Employees, prospective employees and Consultants of the Company and its Affiliates, and Non-Employee Directors of the Company, are eligible to be granted Awards.  Eligibility for the grant of Awards and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Award under which a Participant may receive Ordinary Shares may be granted under this Plan to an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director of any Affiliate if such Ordinary Shares do not constitute “service recipient stock” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, when applicable, with respect to such Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director.
 
5.2          102 Stock Options. Subject to Applicable Law, 102 Stock Options may not be granted to “controlling shareholders” as defined under the Ordinance and may only be granted to Employees, including Office Holders (as such term is defined in the Companies Law), of the Company or any Affiliate thereof, who are Israeli residents for tax purposes (“Eligible 102 Participants”). 102 Stock Options may either be grants to a Trustee or grants under Section 102 without a trustee. Unless otherwise permitted by the Ordinance and the Rules, no 102 Stock Options to a Trustee may be granted until the expiration of thirty (30) days after the requisite filings under the Ordinance and the Rules have been appropriately made with the ITA.
 
5.3          Incentive Stock Options.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and subject to the provisions of Section 5.1 above, only Eligible Employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Parent (if any) are eligible to be granted Incentive Stock Options under this Plan.  Eligibility for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
 
5.4          General Requirement.  The vesting and exercise of Awards granted to a prospective employee or consultant are conditioned upon such individual actually becoming an Eligible Employee or Consultant.
 
ARTICLE VI

STOCK OPTIONS;
 
6.1          Options.  Each Stock Option granted under this Plan shall be of one of three types: (a) an Incentive Stock Option (b) a 102 Stock Option or (b) a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
 
6.2          Grants.  The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have the authority to grant to any Eligible Employee (subject to Sections 5.2, 5.3 above and Section 6.3 below) Incentive Stock Options, 102 Stock Options and/or Non-Qualified Stock Options, according to the applying tax regime and the provisions of this Plan. The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have the authority to grant Non-Qualified Stock Options to any Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion thereof which does not qualify shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option.
 
B - 12

6.3          Terms of Options.  Options granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant which Award Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall deem desirable from time to time. The Award Agreement shall contain the following information:
 
(a)          Number of Shares. Each Award Agreement shall state the number of Shares covered by the Option.
 
(b)          Type of Option. Each Award Agreement shall specifically state the type of Option granted thereunder and whether it constitutes an Incentive Stock Option, Non-Qualified Stock Option, 102 Stock Option and the relevant track, or otherwise.
 
(c)          Exercise Price. Each Award Agreement shall state the Exercise Price, which, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date of grant or such other amount as may be required pursuant to the Code. In the case of any other Option, the per share Exercise Price shall be equal to the amount determined by the Committee. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to any Ten-Percent Shareholder, the Exercise Price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date of grant. In no event shall the Exercise Price of an Option be less than the par value of the shares for which such Option is exercisable. Subject to Article III and to the foregoing, the Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of any outstanding Option. The Exercise Price shall also be subject to adjustment as provided in Article VII hereof.
 
(d)          Exercise Period.  Each Option Agreement shall state the Exercise Period, as fixed by the Committee, subject to the vesting provisions set by the Committee as mentioned below, the early termination provisions set forth in Sub-Sections (h) through (k) hereof and provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than (a) five years after the date the Stock Option is granted, in case of Incentive Stock Options granted to Ten-Percent Shareholders; and (b) seven (7) years after the date the Option is granted, in any other case. At the expiration of the Exercise Period, all unexercised Options shall become null and void.
 
(e)          Exercisability and Vesting Terms.  Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at grant and each Option Agreement shall provide the vesting schedule for the Stock Options as determined by the Committee.  If the Committee provides, in its discretion, that any Stock Option is exercisable subject to certain limitations and/or vesting schedule (including, without limitation, that such Stock Option is exercisable only in installments and/or within certain time periods and/or subject to performance goals and/or measurements,), the Committee may waive such limitations on the exercisability at any time at or after grant in whole or in part (including, without limitation, waiver of the installment exercise provisions or acceleration of the time at which such Stock Option may be exercised), based on such factors, if any, as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion and the provisions with respect to any Stock Option need not be the same as the provisions with respect to any other Stock Option. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, the Stock Option agreement shall provide that (i) in the event the Participant engages in Detrimental Activity prior to any exercise of the Stock Option, all Stock Options held by the Participant shall thereupon terminate and expire, (ii) as a condition of the exercise of a Stock Option, the Participant shall be required to certify (or shall be deemed to have certified) at the time of exercise in a manner acceptable to the Company that the Participant is in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Plan and that the Participant has not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, any Detrimental Activity, and (iii) in the event the Participant engages in Detrimental Activity during the one year period commencing on the later of the date the Stock Option is exercised or becomes vested, the Company shall be entitled to recover from the Participant at any time within one year after such exercise or vesting, and the Participant shall pay over to the Company, an amount equal to any gain realized as a result of the exercise (whether at the time of exercise or thereafter).
 
B - 13

(f)          Method of Exercise.  Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions apply under subsection (e) above, to the extent vested, Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Stock Option term, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Ordinary Shares to be purchased.  Such notice shall be in a form acceptable to the Company and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price as follows: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Ordinary Shares are traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on a national quotation system sponsored by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the Committee authorizes, through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the Exercise Price; or (iii) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee (including, without limitation, the relinquishment of Stock Options or by payment in full or in part in the form of Ordinary Shares (for which the Participant has good title free and clear of any liens and encumbrances) based on the Fair Market Value of the Ordinary Shares on the payment date as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion).  No Ordinary Shares shall be issued until payment therefor, as provided herein, has been made or provided for.
 
(g)          Non-Transferability of Options.  No Stock Option shall be Transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or thereafter that a Non-Qualified Stock Option that is otherwise not Transferable pursuant to this Section is Transferable to a Family Member in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.  A Non-Qualified Stock Option that is Transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence (i) may not be subsequently Transferred otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement.  Any Ordinary Shares acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option by a permissible transferee of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or a permissible transferee pursuant to a Transfer after the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement.
 
(h)          Termination by Death, Disability or Retirement.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if Participant’s Termination is by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant (or, in the case of death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate) at any time within a period of one year from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options; provided, however, that in the case of Retirement, if the Participant dies within such Exercise Period, all unexercised Stock Options held by such Participant shall thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which they were exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year from the date of such death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options.
 
B - 14

(i)          Involuntary Termination Without Cause.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Termination is by involuntary termination without Cause or Participant’s Termination is voluntary (other than a voluntary termination described in subsection (k)(y) below), all Stock Options that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options.
 
(j)          Omitted.
 
(k)          Termination for Cause.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Termination (x) is for Cause or (y) is a voluntary Termination (as provided in sub‑section (j) above) after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a Termination for Cause, all Stock Options, whether vested or not vested, that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) shall thereupon terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.
 
(l)          Unvested Stock Options.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Award Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, Stock Options that are not vested as of the date of a Participant’s Termination for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.
 
(m)        Incentive Stock Option Limitations.  To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Ordinary Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any calendar year under this Plan and/or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Non‑Qualified Stock Options. If the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation from that set forth in this Section, such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of the date and with respect to such Options as required or permitted by such amendment to the Code.  If an Option is treated as an ISO in part and as a NQSO in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this Section, the Participant may designate which portion of such Option the Participant is exercising.  In the absence of such designation, the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised the ISO portion of the Option first.  Separate certificates representing each such portion may be issued upon the exercise of the Option. Should any provision of this Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions be required, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend this Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the Company.
 
B - 15

The Committee, at the written request of any Participant, may in its discretion after verifying the implications of applicable tax law including the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder as now in effect or as hereafter amended, take such actions as may be necessary to convert such Participant’s ISOs (or any portions thereof) that have not been exercised on the date of conversion into NQSOs at any time prior to the expiration of such ISOs, 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. At the time of such conversion, the Committee (with the consent of the Participant) may impose such conditions on the exercise of the resulting NQSOs as the Committee in its discretion may determine, provided that such conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Participant the right to have such Participant’s ISOs converted into NQSOs, and no such conversion shall occur unless and until the Committee takes appropriate action. The Committee, with the consent of the Participant, may also terminate any portion of any ISO that has not been exercised at the time of such conversion.
 
Each Employee who receives an Incentive Stock Option must agree to notify the Company in writing immediately after the Employee makes a Disqualifying Disposition of any Shares acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. A “Disqualifying Disposition” is any disposition (including any sale) of such Shares before the later of  (a) two (2) years after the date the Employee was granted the Incentive Stock Option, and (b) one (1) year after the date the Employee acquired Shares by exercising the Incentive Stock Option. If the Employee has died before such Share is sold, these holding period requirements do not apply and no Disqualifying Disposition can occur thereafter.
 
(n)          Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options.  Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of this Plan, Stock Options shall be evidenced by such an Award Agreement, and the Committee may, in its sole discretion (i) subject to Section 8.1(d) and the applicable law, modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options granted under this Plan (provided that the rights of a Participant are not materially and adversely affected without his or her consent), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (up to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor (to the extent not theretofore exercised); provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent required by applicable law or stock exchange regulation, an outstanding Option may not be modified to reduce the exercise price thereof or to extend the Stock Option beyond its stated term nor may a new Option at a lower price be substituted for a surrendered Option (other than adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 4.2), unless such action is approved by the stockholders of the Company.
 
(o)          Other Terms and Conditions.  Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate.
 
6.4          102 Stock Options.
 
(a)          Stock Options granted pursuant to this Section 6.4 are intended to be granted under Section 102 of the Ordinance pursuant to either (i) Section 102(b)(2) thereof as capital gains track options (“102 Capital Gains Track Options”), or (ii) Section 102(b)(1) thereof as ordinary income track options (“102 Ordinary Income Track Options”; together with 102 Capital Gains Track Options, “102 Trustee Options”). 102 Trustee Options shall be granted subject to the following special terms and conditions contained in this Section 6.4, the general terms and conditions specified in Section 6.3 hereof and other provisions of the Plan, except for any provisions of the Plan applying to Stock Options under different tax laws or regulations.
 
B - 16

(b)          The Company may grant only one type of 102 Trustee Option at any given time to all Participants who are to be granted 102 Trustee Options pursuant to this Plan, and shall file an election with the ITA regarding the type of 102 Trustee Option it elects to grant before the date of grant of any 102 Trustee Options (the “Election”). Such Election shall also apply to any bonus shares received by any Participant as a result of holding the 102 Trustee Options. The Company may change the type of 102 Trustee Option that it elects to grant only after the passage of at least 12 months from the end of the year in which the first grant was made in accordance with the previous Election, or as otherwise provided by applicable law. Any Election shall not prevent the Company from granting Options, pursuant to Section 102(c) of the Ordinance without a Trustee (“102 Non-Trustee Options”).
 
(c)          Each 102 Trustee Option will be deemed granted on the date stated in a written notice to be provided by the Company, provided that on or before such date (i) the Company has provided such notice to the Trustee and (ii) the Participant has signed all documents required pursuant to applicable law and under the Plan.
 
(d)          Each 102 Trustee Option, each Share issued pursuant to the exercise of any 102 Trustee Option, and any rights granted thereunder, including, without limitation, bonus shares, shall be allotted and issued to and registered in the name of the Trustee and shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Participant for a period of not less than the requisite period prescribed by the Ordinance and the Rules or such longer period as set by the Committee (the “Required Holding Period”). In the event that the requirements under Section 102 to qualify an Stock Option as a 102 Trustee Option are not met, then the Stock Option may be treated as a 102 Non-Trustee Option, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the Rules. After termination of the Required Holding Period, the Trustee may release such 102 Trustee Option and any such Shares, provided that (i) the Trustee has received an acknowledgment from the ITA that the Grantee has paid any applicable taxes due pursuant to the Ordinance or (ii) the Trustee and/or the Company and/or its Affiliate withholds any applicable taxes due pursuant to the Ordinance arising from the 102 Trustee Options and/or any Shares allotted or issued upon exercise of such 102 Trustee Options. The Trustee shall not release any 102 Trustee Options or Shares issued upon exercise thereof prior to the payment in full of the Participant’s tax liabilities arising from such 102 Trustee Options and/or Shares or the withholding referred to in (ii) above.
 
(e)          Each 102 Trustee Option shall be subject to the relevant terms of the Ordinance and the Rules, which shall be deemed an integral part of the 102 Trustee Option and shall prevail over any term contained in the Plan or Option Agreement which is not consistent therewith. Any provision of the Ordinance, the Rules and any approvals by the Income Tax Commissioner not expressly specified in this Plan or Option Agreement which, as determined by the Committee, are necessary to receive or maintain any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102 shall be binding on the Participant. The Participant granted a 102 Trustee Option shall comply with the Ordinance and the terms and conditions of the Trust Agreement entered into between the Company and the Trustee. The Participant agrees to execute any and all documents, which the Company and/or its Affiliates and/or the Trustee may reasonably determine to be necessary in order to comply with the Ordinance and the Rules.
 
(f)          During the Required Holding Period, the Participants shall not release from trust or sell, assign, transfer or give as collateral, the Shares issuable upon the exercise of a 102 Trustee Option and/or any securities issued or distributed with respect thereto, until the expiration of the Required Holding Period. Notwithstanding the above, if any such sale or release occurs during the Required Holding Period it will result in adverse tax consequences to the Participant under Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Rules, which shall apply to and shall be borne solely by such Participant. Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee may, pursuant to a written request from the Participant, release and transfer such Shares to a designated third party, provided that both of the following conditions have been fulfilled prior to such release or transfer: (i) payment has been made to the ITA of all taxes required to be paid upon the release and transfer of the Shares, and confirmation of such payment has been received by the Trustee and (ii) the Trustee has received written confirmation from the Company that all requirements for such release and transfer have been fulfilled according to the terms of the Company’s corporate documents, the Plan, the Option Agreement and any applicable law.
 
B - 17

(g)          If a 102 Trustee Option is exercised during the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon such exercise shall be issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Participant. If such 102 Trustee Option is exercised after the expiration of the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon such exercise shall, at the election of the Participant, either (i) be issued in the name of the Trustee, or (ii) be issued to the Participant, provided that the Participant first complies with all applicable provisions of the Plan and all taxes with respect thereto shall have been fully paid to the ITA.
 
(h)          The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.4 relating to 102 Trustee Options shall not apply with respect to 102 Non-Trustee Options, which shall, however, be subject to the relevant provisions of Section 102 and the Rules.
 
(i)          Upon receipt of a 102 Trustee Option, the Participant will sign an undertaking to release the Trustee from any liability with respect to any action or decision duly taken and executed in good faith by the Trustee in relation to the Plan, or any 102 Trustee Option or Share granted to such Participant thereunder.
 
ARTICLE VII

CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS
 
7.1          Benefits.  In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, and except as otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement, a Participant’s unvested Award shall not vest and a Participant’s Award shall be treated in accordance with one of the following methods as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion:
 
(a)          Awards, whether or not then vested, shall be continued, assumed, have new rights substituted therefor or be treated in accordance with Section 4.2(d) hereof, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of Incentive Stock Options, any assumed or substituted Stock Option shall comply with the requirements of Treasury Regulation §  1.424-1 (and any amendments thereto).
 
(b)          The Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide for the purchase of any Awards by the Company or an Affiliate for an amount of cash equal to the excess of the Change in Control Price (as defined below) of the Ordinary Shares covered by such Awards, over the aggregate exercise price of such Awards.  For purposes of this Section 7.1, Change in Control Price shall mean the highest price paid per Ordinary Shares in any transaction related to a Change in Control of the Company; provided, however, that such price shall not exceed the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time of purchase as determined in accordance Section 409A of the Code.

7.2          Change in Control.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Award agreement or other written agreement approved by the Committee, a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur following any transaction if: (i) any “person” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act (other than the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of the Company, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Ordinary Shares of the Company), becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company (or its successor corporation); provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected solely to implement a recapitalization of the Company or for the primary purpose of change of domicile shall not constitute a Change in Control of the Company; (ii) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company; provided, that this subsection (ii) shall not constitute a Change in Control with respect to the amount of any payment pursuant to an Award under this Plan, or any portion thereof, that is triggered upon a Change in Control and that is intended to constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” pursuant to Section 409A of the Code; or (iii) the consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets other than (x) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to a person or persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at least 50% or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company at the time of the sale or (y) pursuant to a spinoff type transaction, directly or indirectly, of such assets to the stockholders of the Company.

ARTICLE IV

SHARE LIMITATION
 
4.1          Shares
 
(a)          The initial aggregate number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under this Plan shall not exceed 550,000 shares (subject to any increase or decrease pursuant to Section 4.2), which may be either authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares or Ordinary Shares held in or acquired for the treasury of the Company, or both. If any Stock Option granted under this Plan expires, terminates or is canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of Ordinary Shares underlying any such unexercised and expired or terminated Award shall again be available for the purpose of Awards under this Plan.  The number of Ordinary Shares available for the purpose of Awards under this Plan shall be reduced by (i) the total number of Awards exercised, regardless of whether any of the Ordinary Shares underlying such Awards are not actually issued to the Participant as the result of a net settlement, and (ii) any Ordinary Shares used to pay any exercise price or tax withholding obligation with respect to any Award.  In addition, the Company may not use the cash proceeds it receives from Stock Option exercises to repurchase Ordinary Shares on the open market for reuse under this Plan.
 
4.2          Changes.
 
(a)          The existence of this Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (iii) any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Ordinary Shares, (iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (v) any sale or transfer of all or part of the assets or business of the Company or any Affiliate or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding.
 
(b)          Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2(g), in the event of any such change in the capital structure or business of the Company by reason of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin‑off, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, issuance of rights or warrants to purchase any Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares, any sale or transfer of all or part of the Company’s assets or business, or any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing and effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, then the Committee shall, subject to applicable law and stock exchange regulations, make such adjustments consistent with such change in such manner as the Committee deems equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under this Plan, to the aggregate number and kind of shares that thereafter may be issued under this Plan, and the number and kind of shares or other property (including cash) to be issued upon exercise of an outstanding Award and the purchase price thereof and the numerical Share limits in Section 4.1 of the Plan. Any such adjustment determined by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company and all Participants and employees and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.  Except as provided in this Section 4.2 or in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no rights by reason of any issuance by the Company of any class or securities convertible into stock of any class, any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any stock dividend, any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class, any sale or transfer of all or part of the Company’s assets or business or any other change affecting the Company’s capital structure or business.
 
C - 10

(c)          Fractional Ordinary Shares resulting from any adjustment in Awards pursuant to Section 4.2(a) or (b) shall be aggregated until, and eliminated at, the time of exercise by rounding-down for fractions less than one-half and rounding-up for fractions equal to or greater than one-half, unless and to the extent another rounding method is required by applicable law or stock exchange regulations.  No cash settlements shall be made with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding.  Notice of any adjustment shall be given by the Committee to each Participant whose Award has been adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not such notice is given) shall be effective and binding for all purposes of this Plan.
 
(d)          Should the Company declare a cash dividend to its shareholders, and the distribution date of such dividend will precede the exercise date of an Option, including for the avoidance of doubt, Options that have yet to become vested and Options which have been granted prior to the adoption of the amendment to this Plan, unless the Committee otherwise determines, subject to applicable law and stock exchange regulations, the Exercise Price shall be reduced in the amount equal to the cash dividend per Share distributed by the Company.
 
(e)          To the extent required by applicable stock exchange regulations, no Award shall be exercised on the record date, or the ex-date if earlier in time to such record date, of stock dividend, other distribution of dividends, rights offering, stock split, reverse stock split or reduction of authorized share capital.
 
(f)          In the event of issuance of rights made by the Company to the shareholders during the existence of the right to exercise the Award, the number of shares resulting from exercising the Award shall be adjusted to the beneficial component of the rights, as expressed in the ratio between the Stock Market closing exchange rate on the last trading day before the "X day" and, the base rate of the "X rights.
 
(g)          In the event of an Acquisition Event, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate all outstanding and unexercised Awards effective as of the date of the Acquisition Event, by delivering notice of termination to each Participant at least 20 days prior to the date of consummation of the Acquisition Event, in which case during the period from the date on which such notice of termination is delivered to the consummation of the Acquisition Event, each such Participant shall have the right to exercise in full all of his or her Awards that are then outstanding (subject to any limitations on exercisability otherwise contained in the Award agreements), but any such exercise shall be contingent on the occurrence of the Acquisition Event, and, provided that, if the Acquisition Event does not take place within a specified period after giving such notice for any reason whatsoever, the notice and exercise pursuant thereto shall be null and void.
 
If an Acquisition Event occurs but the Committee does not terminate the outstanding Awards pursuant to this Section 4.2(g), then the provisions of Section 4.2(b) and Article VII shall apply.
 
 (h)          Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 4.2(d) and 4.2(f) shall not apply to any grants of ISOs to Optionees under the Plan.

5.1          General Eligibility. All Eligible Employees, prospective employees and Consultants of the Company and its Affiliates, and Non-Employee Directors of the Company, are eligible to be granted Awards.  Eligibility for the grant of Awards and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Award under which a Participant may receive Ordinary Shares may be granted under this Plan to an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director of any Affiliate if such Ordinary Shares do not constitute “service recipient stock” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, when applicable, with respect to such Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director.
 
5.2          102 Stock Options. Subject to Applicable Law, 102 Stock Options may not be granted to “controlling shareholders” as defined under the Ordinance and may only be granted to Employees, including Office Holders (as such term is defined in the Companies Law), of the Company or any Affiliate thereof, who are Israeli residents for tax purposes (“Eligible 102 Participants”). 102 Stock Options may either be grants to a Trustee or grants under Section 102 without a trustee. Unless otherwise permitted by the Ordinance and the Rules, no 102 Stock Options to a Trustee may be granted until the expiration of thirty (30) days after the requisite filings under the Ordinance and the Rules have been appropriately made with the ITA.
 
5.3          Incentive Stock Options.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and subject to the provisions of Section 5.1 above, only Eligible Employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Parent (if any) are eligible to be granted Incentive Stock Options under this Plan.  Eligibility for the grant of an Incentive Stock Option and actual participation in this Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
 
5.4          General Requirement.  The vesting and exercise of Awards granted to a prospective employee or consultant are conditioned upon such individual actually becoming an Eligible Employee or Consultant.
 
ARTICLE VI

STOCK OPTIONS;
 
6.1          Options.  Each Stock Option granted under this Plan shall be of one of three types: (a) an Incentive Stock Option (b) a 102 Stock Option or (b) a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
 
6.2          Grants.  The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have the authority to grant to any Eligible Employee (subject to Sections 5.2, 5.3 above and Section 6.3 below) Incentive Stock Options, 102 Stock Options and/or Non-Qualified Stock Options, according to the applying tax regime and the provisions of this Plan. The Committee shall, in its sole discretion, have the authority to grant Non-Qualified Stock Options to any Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion thereof which does not qualify shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option.
 
C - 12

6.3          Terms of Options.  Options granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant which Award Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall deem desirable from time to time. The Award Agreement shall contain the following information:
 
(a)          Number of Shares. Each Award Agreement shall state the number of Shares covered by the Option.
 
(b)          Type of Option. Each Award Agreement shall specifically state the type of Option granted thereunder and whether it constitutes an Incentive Stock Option, Non-Qualified Stock Option, 102 Stock Option and the relevant track, or otherwise.
 
(c)          Exercise Price. Each Award Agreement shall state the Exercise Price, which, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date of grant or such other amount as may be required pursuant to the Code. In the case of any other Option, the per share Exercise Price shall be equal to the amount determined by the Committee. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to any Ten-Percent Shareholder, the Exercise Price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by the Option on the date of grant. In no event shall the Exercise Price of an Option be less than the par value of the shares for which such Option is exercisable. Subject to Article III and to the foregoing, the Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of any outstanding Option. The Exercise Price shall also be subject to adjustment as provided in Article VII hereof.
 
(d)          Exercise Period.  Each Option Agreement shall state the Exercise Period, as fixed by the Committee, subject to the vesting provisions set by the Committee as mentioned below, the early termination provisions set forth in Sub-Sections (h) through (k) hereof and provided that no Stock Option shall be exercisable more than (a) five years after the date the Stock Option is granted, in case of Incentive Stock Options granted to Ten-Percent Shareholders; and (b) seven (7) years after the date the Option is granted, in any other case. At the expiration of the Exercise Period, all unexercised Options shall become null and void.
 
(e)          Exercisability and Vesting Terms.  Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at grant and each Option Agreement shall provide the vesting schedule for the Stock Options as determined by the Committee.  If the Committee provides, in its discretion, that any Stock Option is exercisable subject to certain limitations and/or vesting schedule (including, without limitation, that such Stock Option is exercisable only in installments and/or within certain time periods and/or subject to performance goals and/or measurements,), the Committee may waive such limitations on the exercisability at any time at or after grant in whole or in part (including, without limitation, waiver of the installment exercise provisions or acceleration of the time at which such Stock Option may be exercised), based on such factors, if any, as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion and the provisions with respect to any Stock Option need not be the same as the provisions with respect to any other Stock Option. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, the Stock Option agreement shall provide that (i) in the event the Participant engages in Detrimental Activity prior to any exercise of the Stock Option, all Stock Options held by the Participant shall thereupon terminate and expire, (ii) as a condition of the exercise of a Stock Option, the Participant shall be required to certify (or shall be deemed to have certified) at the time of exercise in a manner acceptable to the Company that the Participant is in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Plan and that the Participant has not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, any Detrimental Activity, and (iii) in the event the Participant engages in Detrimental Activity during the one year period commencing on the later of the date the Stock Option is exercised or becomes vested, the Company shall be entitled to recover from the Participant at any time within one year after such exercise or vesting, and the Participant shall pay over to the Company, an amount equal to any gain realized as a result of the exercise (whether at the time of exercise or thereafter).
 
C - 13

(f)          Method of Exercise.  Subject to whatever installment exercise and waiting period provisions apply under subsection (e) above, to the extent vested, Stock Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Stock Option term, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Ordinary Shares to be purchased.  Such notice shall be in a form acceptable to the Company and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price as follows: (i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Ordinary Shares are traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on a national quotation system sponsored by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, and the Committee authorizes, through a procedure whereby the Participant delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the Exercise Price; or (iii) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee (including, without limitation, the relinquishment of Stock Options or by payment in full or in part in the form of Ordinary Shares (for which the Participant has good title free and clear of any liens and encumbrances) based on the Fair Market Value of the Ordinary Shares on the payment date as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion).  No Ordinary Shares shall be issued until payment therefor, as provided herein, has been made or provided for.
 
(g)          Non-Transferability of Options.  No Stock Option shall be Transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or thereafter that a Non-Qualified Stock Option that is otherwise not Transferable pursuant to this Section is Transferable to a Family Member in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.  A Non-Qualified Stock Option that is Transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence (i) may not be subsequently Transferred otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement.  Any Ordinary Shares acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option by a permissible transferee of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or a permissible transferee pursuant to a Transfer after the exercise of the Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and the applicable Award agreement.
 
(h)          Termination by Death, Disability or Retirement.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if Participant’s Termination is by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant (or, in the case of death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate) at any time within a period of one year from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options; provided, however, that in the case of Retirement, if the Participant dies within such Exercise Period, all unexercised Stock Options held by such Participant shall thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which they were exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year from the date of such death, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options.
 
C - 14

(i)          Involuntary Termination Without Cause.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Termination is by involuntary termination without Cause or Participant’s Termination is voluntary (other than a voluntary termination described in subsection (k)(y) below), all Stock Options that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) that are vested and exercisable at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the Exercise Period of such Stock Options.
 
(j)          Omitted.
 
(k)          Termination for Cause.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Option Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, if a Participant’s Termination (x) is for Cause or (y) is a voluntary Termination (as provided in sub‑section (j) above) after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a Termination for Cause, all Stock Options, whether vested or not vested, that are held by such Participant (or, if relevant, by a Trustee under Section 102 of the Ordinance) shall thereupon terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.
 
(l)          Unvested Stock Options.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant and specifically stated in the Award Agreement, or if no rights of the Participant are reduced, thereafter, Stock Options that are not vested as of the date of a Participant’s Termination for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.
 
(m)          Incentive Stock Option Limitations.  To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Ordinary Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any calendar year under this Plan and/or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Non‑Qualified Stock Options. If the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation from that set forth in this Section, such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of the date and with respect to such Options as required or permitted by such amendment to the Code.  If an Option is treated as an ISO in part and as a NQSO in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this Section, the Participant may designate which portion of such Option the Participant is exercising.  In the absence of such designation, the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised the ISO portion of the Option first.  Separate certificates representing each such portion may be issued upon the exercise of the Option. Should any provision of this Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions be required, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend this Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the Company.
 
C - 15

The Committee, at the written request of any Participant, may in its discretion after verifying the implications of applicable tax law including the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder as now in effect or as hereafter amended, take such actions as may be necessary to convert such Participant’s ISOs (or any portions thereof) that have not been exercised on the date of conversion into NQSOs at any time prior to the expiration of such ISOs, 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. At the time of such conversion, the Committee (with the consent of the Participant) may impose such conditions on the exercise of the resulting NQSOs as the Committee in its discretion may determine, provided that such conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall be deemed to give any Participant the right to have such Participant’s ISOs converted into NQSOs, and no such conversion shall occur unless and until the Committee takes appropriate action. The Committee, with the consent of the Participant, may also terminate any portion of any ISO that has not been exercised at the time of such conversion.
 
Each Employee who receives an Incentive Stock Option must agree to notify the Company in writing immediately after the Employee makes a Disqualifying Disposition of any Shares acquired upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. A “Disqualifying Disposition” is any disposition (including any sale) of such Shares before the later of  (a) two (2) years after the date the Employee was granted the Incentive Stock Option, and (b) one (1) year after the date the Employee acquired Shares by exercising the Incentive Stock Option. If the Employee has died before such Share is sold, these holding period requirements do not apply and no Disqualifying Disposition can occur thereafter.
 
(n)          Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options.  Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of this Plan, Stock Options shall be evidenced by such an Award Agreement, and the Committee may, in its sole discretion (i) subject to Section 8.1(d) and the applicable law, modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options granted under this Plan (provided that the rights of a Participant are not materially and adversely affected without his or her consent), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (up to the extent not theretofore exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor (to the extent not theretofore exercised); provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent required by applicable law or stock exchange regulation, an outstanding Option may not be modified to reduce the exercise price thereof or to extend the Stock Option beyond its stated term nor may a new Option at a lower price be substituted for a surrendered Option (other than adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 4.2), unless such action is approved by the stockholders of the Company.
 
(o)          Other Terms and Conditions.  Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate.

(a)          Stock Options granted pursuant to this Section 6.4 are intended to be granted under Section 102 of the Ordinance pursuant to either (i) Section 102(b)(2) thereof as capital gains track options (“102 Capital Gains Track Options”), or (ii) Section 102(b)(1) thereof as ordinary income track options (“102 Ordinary Income Track Options”; together with 102 Capital Gains Track Options, “102 Trustee Options”). 102 Trustee Options shall be granted subject to the following special terms and conditions contained in this Section 6.4, the general terms and conditions specified in Section 6.3 hereof and other provisions of the Plan, except for any provisions of the Plan applying to Stock Options under different tax laws or regulations.
 
C - 16

(b)          The Company may grant only one type of 102 Trustee Option at any given time to all Participants who are to be granted 102 Trustee Options pursuant to this Plan, and shall file an election with the ITA regarding the type of 102 Trustee Option it elects to grant before the date of grant of any 102 Trustee Options (the “Election”). Such Election shall also apply to any bonus shares received by any Participant as a result of holding the 102 Trustee Options. The Company may change the type of 102 Trustee Option that it elects to grant only after the passage of at least 12 months from the end of the year in which the first grant was made in accordance with the previous Election, or as otherwise provided by applicable law. Any Election shall not prevent the Company from granting Options, pursuant to Section 102(c) of the Ordinance without a Trustee (“102 Non-Trustee Options”).
 
(c)          Each 102 Trustee Option will be deemed granted on the date stated in a written notice to be provided by the Company, provided that on or before such date (i) the Company has provided such notice to the Trustee and (ii) the Participant has signed all documents required pursuant to applicable law and under the Plan.
 
(d)          Each 102 Trustee Option, each Share issued pursuant to the exercise of any 102 Trustee Option, and any rights granted thereunder, including, without limitation, bonus shares, shall be allotted and issued to and registered in the name of the Trustee and shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Participant for a period of not less than the requisite period prescribed by the Ordinance and the Rules or such longer period as set by the Committee (the “Required Holding Period”). In the event that the requirements under Section 102 to qualify an Stock Option as a 102 Trustee Option are not met, then the Stock Option may be treated as a 102 Non-Trustee Option, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the Rules. After termination of the Required Holding Period, the Trustee may release such 102 Trustee Option and any such Shares, provided that (i) the Trustee has received an acknowledgment from the ITA that the Grantee has paid any applicable taxes due pursuant to the Ordinance or (ii) the Trustee and/or the Company and/or its Affiliate withholds any applicable taxes due pursuant to the Ordinance arising from the 102 Trustee Options and/or any Shares allotted or issued upon exercise of such 102 Trustee Options. The Trustee shall not release any 102 Trustee Options or Shares issued upon exercise thereof prior to the payment in full of the Participant’s tax liabilities arising from such 102 Trustee Options and/or Shares or the withholding referred to in (ii) above.
 
(e)          Each 102 Trustee Option shall be subject to the relevant terms of the Ordinance and the Rules, which shall be deemed an integral part of the 102 Trustee Option and shall prevail over any term contained in the Plan or Option Agreement which is not consistent therewith. Any provision of the Ordinance, the Rules and any approvals by the Income Tax Commissioner not expressly specified in this Plan or Option Agreement which, as determined by the Committee, are necessary to receive or maintain any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102 shall be binding on the Participant. The Participant granted a 102 Trustee Option shall comply with the Ordinance and the terms and conditions of the Trust Agreement entered into between the Company and the Trustee. The Participant agrees to execute any and all documents, which the Company and/or its Affiliates and/or the Trustee may reasonably determine to be necessary in order to comply with the Ordinance and the Rules.
 
(f)          During the Required Holding Period, the Participants shall not release from trust or sell, assign, transfer or give as collateral, the Shares issuable upon the exercise of a 102 Trustee Option and/or any securities issued or distributed with respect thereto, until the expiration of the Required Holding Period. Notwithstanding the above, if any such sale or release occurs during the Required Holding Period it will result in adverse tax consequences to the Participant under Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Rules, which shall apply to and shall be borne solely by such Participant. Subject to the foregoing, the Trustee may, pursuant to a written request from the Participant, release and transfer such Shares to a designated third party, provided that both of the following conditions have been fulfilled prior to such release or transfer: (i) payment has been made to the ITA of all taxes required to be paid upon the release and transfer of the Shares, and confirmation of such payment has been received by the Trustee and (ii) the Trustee has received written confirmation from the Company that all requirements for such release and transfer have been fulfilled according to the terms of the Company’s corporate documents, the Plan, the Option Agreement and any applicable law.
 
C - 17

(g)          If a 102 Trustee Option is exercised during the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon such exercise shall be issued in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Participant. If such 102 Trustee Option is exercised after the expiration of the Required Holding Period, the Shares issued upon such exercise shall, at the election of the Participant, either (i) be issued in the name of the Trustee, or (ii) be issued to the Participant, provided that the Participant first complies with all applicable provisions of the Plan and all taxes with respect thereto shall have been fully paid to the ITA.
 
(h)          The foregoing provisions of this Section 6.4 relating to 102 Trustee Options shall not apply with respect to 102 Non-Trustee Options, which shall, however, be subject to the relevant provisions of Section 102 and the Rules.
 
(i)          Upon receipt of a 102 Trustee Option, the Participant will sign an undertaking to release the Trustee from any liability with respect to any action or decision duly taken and executed in good faith by the Trustee in relation to the Plan, or any 102 Trustee Option or Share granted to such Participant thereunder.

General
 

2.1.
This compensation policy ("the Policy"), was formulated during an internal process conducted at the Company in compliance with the provision of Amendment 20, and is based on the Company's will to properly balance between its will to reward Office Holders for their achievements and the need to ensure that the Total Compensation is in line with the Company's benefit and overall strategy over time.
 

2.2.
The purpose of the Policy is to set guidelines for the compensation manner of the Company's Officer Holders. The Company's management and its Board of Directors deem all of the Office Holders of the Company as partners in the Company's success and consequently, derived a comprehensive view with respect to the Company's Office Holders' Compensation. This document presents the indices that derived from the principles of the formulated Policy, as specified hereunder.
 

2.3.
It is hereby clarified that no statement in this document is intended to vest any right to the Office Holders to whom the principles of the Policy apply, or to any other third party, and not necessarily will use be made of all of the components and ranges presented in this Policy.
 

2.4.
The indices presented in the Policy are intended to prescribe an adequately broad framework that shall enable the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors of the Company to formulate a personal Compensation Plan for each office Holder or a particular compensation component according to individual circumstances (including unique circumstances) and according to the Company's needs, in a manner that is congruent with the Company's benefit and the Company's overall strategy over time.
 

2.5.
The Policy is intended to align between the importance of incentivizing Executives to reach personal targets and the need to assure that the overall compensation meets our Company's long term strategic performance and financial objectives. The policy provides our Compensation Committee and our Board of Directors with adequate measures and flexibility, to tailor each of our Executive's compensation package based, among others, on geography, tasks, role, seniority, and capability.
 

2.6.
The Policy shall provide the Board of Directors with guidelines for exercising discretion under the Company’s equity plans.
 

2.7.
For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that in case of any amendment made to provisions of the Law and any other relevant rules and regulations in a manner that will facilitate the Company regarding its actions related to Officer compensation, the Company may be entitled to follow these provisions even if they contradict the principles of this Compensation Policy.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the compensation terms of such mangers exceed the limitations on compensation set forth in this Policy, and the Company cannot amend such compensation after making reasonable efforts to do so, then the compensation of such managers of the acquired entity may not be amended in accordance with the terms of the Policy.

However, to the extent permitted by law, if the shareholders shall oppose approving the Policy, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors shall be able to approve the Policy, after having held another discussion of the Policy and after having determined, on the basis of detailed reasoning, that, notwithstanding the opposition of the shareholders, the adoption of the Policy is for the benefit of the Company.
