To the Registered Holders of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited:

 

Dear ADR Holder:

 

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited has informed us that it intends to make shareholder communications, including annual reports, interim reports and notices of shareholder meetings, available on its website at: www.tevapharm.com. Instead of receiving printed materials in the mail, you will now be able to access them electronically, at your convenience and download or print them, if you wish, directly from Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited’s website. In order to use this electronic delivery service you must have a personal computer with appropriate browser software and access to the internet. Should you wish to print materials that have been delivered electronically, you will also require a printer.

 

The benefits of electronic delivery include the convenience of viewing your material online, receiving your material in a more timely manner as you will no longer have to wait for it to arrive in the mail, and it will also help us reduce printing costs and mailing costs for the benefit of all Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited’s shareholders. Please note that “pdf” files containing company annual reports are extremely large and viewing or downloading these files may be slow. Also, if you choose to print Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited’s reports from the internet, you will incur the cost of on-line time, paper and printing supplies.

 

Participation is completely your choice. If you choose to rely on access via the internet only to receive your future annual reports, notices of meetings, interim reports and other shareholder communications electronically as they become available, we need your consent. Simply mark the box below this card and return it to The Bank of New York in the enclosed postage paid envelope.

 

If in the future you would like to receive a printed set of particular shareholder materials or wish to resume mail delivery for all your shareholder materials, all you need to do is call The Bank of New York at 1-888-269-2377 in the U.S. or for international callers 1-610-382-7836 and inform us of your decision.

 

In addition, you may write to us at:

 

The Bank of New York

Investor Relations

P.O. Box 11258

Church Street Station

New York, NY 10286-1258

 

If you do not consent and wish to continue to receive shareholder materials via the mail as in the past, you do not need to take any action at this time.

 

The Bank of New York,

as Depositary
