All necessary proceedings under the Purchaser’s governing documents and Applicable Law have been duly taken by the Purchaser to authorize the execution, delivery, and performance of the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party and no other proceedings on the part of the Purchaser shall be necessary to authorize this Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party, have been or will be duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and by the application of general principles of equity. |
5.3. | No Conflict.

FIMI Management has the full and exclusive power to take any and all actions on behalf of the Purchaser and exercise all rights of such entities with respect to their interests and the purchase of the Closing Shares. |
5.5. | Purchase for Own Account. The Purchaser understands that the Closing Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a claimed exemption under the provisions of the Securities Act that depends, in part, upon the Purchaser’s investment intention. In this connection, the Purchaser hereby represents that it intends to acquire the Closing Shares for its own account for investment and not with a view to distribution or resale thereof. |
12
5.6. | Reliance on Exemptions. The Purchaser understands that the Closing Shares are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and the prospectus requirements of the laws of the State of Israel and that the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of such Purchaser to acquire the Closing Shares. |
5.7. | Purchaser Status. At the time the Purchaser was offered the Closing Shares, it was, and as of the date hereof it is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act. |
5.8. | Experience of Purchaser. The Purchaser, either alone or together with its representatives, has such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in the Closing Shares, and has so evaluated the merits and risks of such investment. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Closing Shares and, at the present time, is able to afford a complete loss of such investment. The Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company may possess material non-public information (collectively, the “MNPI”) and that any such MNPI may be known to the Purchaser through its representatives on the Company’s Board. The Purchaser waives any claim it may have against the Company, it officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents or representatives, under Applicable Law or otherwise, as a result of such MNPI (if any) not yet being disclosed by the Company to the public. |
5.9. | General Solicitation. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Closing Shares as a result of any advertisement, article, notice or other communication regarding the Closing Shares published in any newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television, radio or the Internet or presented at any seminar or meeting any other general advertisement. |
5.10. | Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Closing Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the U.S. federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and that under such laws and applicable regulations such Closing Shares may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. Purchaser acknowledges that the Closing Shares must be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which permit limited resale of securities purchased in a private placement. |
5.11. | Legends. The Purchaser consents to the placement of a legend on any certificate or other document evidencing the Closing Shares that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities or “blue sky” laws and setting forth or referring to the restrictions on transferability and sale thereof contained in this Agreement. The Purchaser is aware that the Company will make a notation in its appropriate records with respect to the restrictions on the transferability of the Closing Shares. The legend to be placed on each certificate shall be in form substantially similar to the following: |
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE TRANSFEROR TO SUCH EFFECT, THE SUBSTANCE OF WHICH SHALL BE REASONABLY ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY.
13
5.12. | Israeli Resale Restrictions. The Purchaser is aware that the resale of the Closing Shares may be subject to certain restrictions under the Israeli Securities Law, 1968 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and therefore, the resale of the Closing Shares on the TASE may be subject to such restrictions. Purchaser undertakes to comply with such restrictions with respect to the resale of the Closing Shares on the TASE. |
5.13. | Independent Advice. Purchaser understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Closing Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. |

5.15. | No Derogation. Nothing set forth in this Section 5 shall be deemed to derogate from or otherwise prejudice the Purchaser’s reliance on the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in Section 4 above. |
