stock issue, identical to the shareholders in the Company on the eve of
the stock issue) and whose shares will be registered for trading “over the
counter” on the NASDAQ exchange in the United States where the source of
the vast majority of the issue funds shall be from institutional entities
in the USA which will invest sums of money in the Offered Company of at

And
the parties are interested in setting forth in writing their agreement in

|
Therefore the parties have agreed and stipulated
as follows:
|
1.
|
The
preamble to this agreement shall constitute an integral part
thereof.
|

|
Total Investment by Microdel in the
Company
|
The
Parties hereby agree that the total monies (in money and monetary
equivalent) that Microdel shall invest in the Company, as of the date upon
which this Agreement is signed, shall be the sum of USD 314,000
(hereinafter, “Microdel’s
Investment Sum”). Microdel’s Investment Sum includes USD
100,000 for moulds whose production was funded by Microdel and which are
located overseas. Microdel undertakes to see to it that the
Company is provided with undamaged and usable moulds within 90 days of the
signing of this contract, pursuant to which the investment sum of USD
100,000 shall be credited to Microdel. In the event the moulds
referred to in the Primary Agreement shall arrive from overseas damaged,
or fail to arrive by the date noted above, then the sum of USD 100,000
shall be deducted from Microdel’s Investment Sum and the number of
unconditional shares, as described below, to which Microdel would be
entitled to receive in the Company and in the Offered Company (in the
event the Offering is successful) shall be reduced
accordingly. In any event the number of unconditional shares
according to this paragraph shall be updated prior to the actual
Offering.
|

|
Microdel’s Shares in the
Company
|
3.1.
|
In
exchange for Microdel’s Investment Sum in the Company, Microdel shall be
entitled to a number of shares of stock such that, according to the
Primary Agreement, it shall be entitled to 1,878 ordinary shares in the
Company, following the formulation of the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation and once all the Company’s shares have become ordinary
shares with equal rights according to the resolution to equalize the share
rights, as described below in section 6.1.1. Since Microdel has
undertaken to assume all of the Offering expenses (except for the
Company’s conditional participation sum, as understood below), 1,503
ordinary shares shall be deducted in advance from this number of shares,
which reflects an investment in the Company of USD 150,000 based on a
company value of USD 4.5 million, shares that are to be allocated to the
private investors as this is understood below; such that Microdel shall
receive an allocation from the Company, subject to the provisions of
section 2 above, of 75 ordinary shares (hereinafter, “the Unconditional
Shares”).
|

3.2.
|
If
the Offering is successful the Company hereby agrees to allocate to
Microdel 9,166 additional shares in the Company (hereinafter, “the Conditional
Shares”), the quantity of which shall be calculated according to
the principles of the Primary Agreement. The Conditional Shares
shall be allocated in fact following a process to equalize the rights of
the Company’s shares, as described below, and shall be held in trust by
Adv. Yaniv Shekel
(hereinafter, “the
Trustee”). The number of Conditional Shares shall also
include an investment in the amount of USD 10,000 per month (for the
period between April 2009 and the end of November 2009, that is, the sum
of USD 80,000), which Microdel has undertaken to invest in the Company for
its current activity as stated below in section 8. The Parties
hereby give irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to act as follows with
regard to the Conditional Shares:
|
3.2.1.
|
Should
the Offering succeed – The Trustee shall transfer the Conditional Shares
to Microdel.
|
3.2.2.
|
Should
the Offering fail – The Trustee shall transfer the Conditional Shares to
the Company’s current shareholders (at the time this contract is signed,
except for Microdel) in exchange for NIS 0.01 per share, in accordance
with the relative share of the current shareholders in the Company’s
shares, such that this share shall be calculated among the present
shareholders (except for Microdel), among
themselves.
|
3.2.3.
|
For
the purpose of above the “Success of the
Offering” means – Fulfillment of all conditions below as of the

trading over the counter on the NASDAQ exchange in the USA, where the
source of the vast majority of the issue funds shall be from institutional
entities in the USA which will invest sums of money in the Offered
Company
|

“Failure of the
Offering” means – Non-fulfillment of all of the components of the
“Success of the Offering” by the final date. It is hereby
clarified that fulfillment of some of the conditions for the Success of

Microdel
shall not be entitled to request any relief against the Trustee, including
neither an order to act nor an order to desist from acting, and Microdel
undertakes not to petition the courts with a motion and/or an appeal
seeking to prevent the transfer of the Conditional Shares from the Trustee
to the Current Shareholders in the event of the Failure of the
Offering. Furthermore, and without derogating from the
generality of the above, Microdel shall not be entitled to prevent the
transfer of the Conditional Shares from the Trustee to the Current
Shareholders for any reason whatsoever, including a claim against the
Current Shareholders and/or against the Company and/or its officers, and
in any event of a Failure of the Offering, whatever the reason and whoever
may be at fault, the Conditional Shares shall be transferred to the
Current Shareholders as stated above without Microdel having any dispute
and/or claim in this regard towards the Company, its shareholders, its
managers and officers.
|
3.2.5.
|
Voting rights of holders of the
Conditional Shares – Notwithstanding the provisions contained in
the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, it is hereby agreed that during
the interim period (that is, the period until the final date, as
understood below), in any case where a vote is needed by virtue of the
Conditional Shares at a general meeting of shareholders, the Trustee shall
vote by virtue thereof provided the Conditional Shares are held by him, in
accordance with a document signed by holders of most of the shares held by
the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel), (hereinafter, “Voting Order”), and the
parties hereby irrevocably instruct the Trustee to vote by virtue of the
Conditional Shares in accordance with the Voting Order that shall be given
as stated. During the interim period, and provided the
Conditional Shares as held by the Trustee shall not endow him the right to
appoint a director to the Company’s board of directors. Only
after the Conditional Shares have been transferred to Microdel (following
the Success of the Offering) or to the Current Shareholders (following the
Failure of the Offering) as relevant, shall the holders of the Conditional
Shares enjoy all of the rights endowed to those shareholders according to
the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation.
|

3.2.6.
|
Should
the Offered Company be established, the Trustee shall hold in trust that
quantity of Conditional Shares in the Offered Company, and all of the
provisions above and below shall also apply, mutatis mutandis, to
the Conditional Shares in the Offered
Company.
|
3.2.7.
|
In
any event, should the Trustee fail to act in accordance with the above the
Company shall be entitled, without derogating from any other relief that
may be available to the Current Shareholders, to forfeit the Conditional
Shares and turn them into deferred shares without rights; and Microdel
hereby gives its irrevocable consent to this procedure should the
Company’s board of directors and Current Shareholders decide, by a
majority, to take such measures. It is hereby agreed that
Microdel and its board of directors, as relevant, shall be prohibited from
voting at the general meeting and at the Company’s board of directors
regarding any decision that relates to the forfeiture of the Conditional
Shares or their being turned into deferred
shares.
|
3.2.8.
|
A
table of Company shares that includes the Unconditional Shares and the
Conditional Shares is attached to this Agreement as “Appendix 3.2.8” and is
an integral part thereof.
|
3.3.
|
It
is hereby agreed by the Parties that in the event of the Success of the
Offering such that the Company’s issued shares are released to Microdel,
and in the event that Microdel’s actions according to this Agreement shall
be subject to VAT (paying attention to the nature of Microdel’s activities
and the residence of the Offered Company), the Company shall indemnify
Microdel pursuant to the said VAT from the Offering monies, provided that
the Company shall be entitled to a reimbursement for Input Tax from the
VAT Authorities in a manner that does not cause a monetary loss and in
such a manner that the Company shall not have to pay this amount using any
interim funding whatsoever.

|
Time
Table
|
The
Company, through Microdel, shall act to the best of its ability to ensure
that the Offering comes about by no later than November 31, 2009
(hereinafter, “the Final
Date”). If the Offering is not completed by the Final
Date and the Company’s shares are not registered for trade by the Final
Date, but the American attorney whose services are being used for the
purpose of the Offering shall affirm in writing, prior to the Final Date,
that there is significant progress being made to promote the Offering and
that he needs a bit more time, not to exceed two months, in order to
complete the process while noting in his letter that it is almost certain
that the Offering shall be completed within that period of time, then the
Company shall agree to extend the Final Date for additional period of up
to two months, provided that Microdel shall continue to fund the Company’s
current activity as stated in section 7 below. In the event of
an extension as stated, the Final Date shall occur at the end of the
extended period which shall be, in any event, not later than January 30,
2010. The board of directors shall be permitted, but not
required, to extend the Final Date beyond January 30, 2010, provided that
the decision pursuant to extending the Final Date beyond January 30, 2010
is passed with a majority of 85% of the votes cast by the Company’s board
of directors, wherein the directors appointed by Microdel shall be
excluded from voting on this matter. Failure to extend the
Final Date shall not be considered, in any case, as an unreasonable
decision and/or for unreasonable cause, and the failure to pass this
decision shall not entitle Microdel and/or any other entity (including the
private investors, the consultant, the employees and service providers who
were hired ahead of the Offering) to any compensation
whatsoever. Should the Company not decide to extend the Final
Date beyond November 30, 2009, then the Company undertakes not to use the
services of the present offering consultant for a period of 9 months from
the Final Date, unless it has received authorization for this from
Microdel.
|

|
Offering
Expenses
|
5.1.
|
Microdel
undertakes to assume all of the Offering expenses, without
exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, following the Success of
the Offering the Company shall assume the expenses that are conditioned
upon the Success of the Offering, as understood
below.
|
6
5.2.
|
Since,
when calculating the number of Unconditional Shares, all of the Offering
expenses were taken into account, including expenses for consultants,
attorneys, accountants, underwriters and other entities involved in the
Offering process (and including expenses not in cash but through the
offering of additional shares to entities involved in the Offering process
and including costs for personnel the Company shall hire or did hire for
its current activity until the date of Offering in the amount of USD
150,000), then these expenses shall be paid by the Company provided that
Microdel made sure that these monies were deposited, before assuming any
undertaking towards these service providers, in a special account to be
opened by the Company for this purpose and which shall be entirely
dedicated to making these payments and for the purpose of continuing to
finance the Company’s activities as specified in section 8 below
(hereinafter, “the
Special Account”). It is hereby clarified that the
Company shall not assume the Offering expenses in amounts that exceed
those deposited for this purpose in the Special Account; and in any case
where the Company shall assume any undertaking towards a third party at
Microdel’s request, then Microdel shall indemnify the Company pursuant to
any sum the Company shall be required to pay by virtue of this undertaking
beyond the sums held in the Special
Account.
|
5.3.
|
It
is hereby agreed by the Parties that payment of the Offering expenses as
described in section 5.1 above shall be executed only from different
monies received from private investors and/or from Microdel prior to the
Offering (provided that the sums received from private investors [as
defined below] and from Microdel prior to the Offering shall be deposited
into the Special Account). If the monies from the private
investors are insufficient to pay the said expenses, Microdel shall assume
the expenses without the Company being required to reimburse these
amounts, whether the Offering takes place or not for any reason
whatsoever, and without these expenses being considered as Microdel’s
investment in the Company and without Microdel being entitled to receive
pursuant thereto holdings in the Company and/or rights and/or benefits of
any kind. Regardless of the above – if, following payment of
the Offering expenses and any other payment that Microdel has undertaken
to pay according to this contact, there remain any monies in the Special
Account after the Offering and following payment of all the payments
involved in the Offering procedure and provided that the Offering was
successful – these monies shall revert to
Microdel.
|
7
5.4.
|
Since
certain expenses pursuant to the Offering must be paid from the Company’s
account and against the Company’s undertaking to pay them (for example,
the American attorney Microdel selected to lead the offering process,
payment of fees related to the Offering, and so on), and therefore the
number of Unconditional Shares was reduced accordingly as if Microdel had
assumed these expenses (up to the sum of USD 150,000) – it is hereby
agreed that the Company shall undertake to make these payments only on
condition that the undertaking monies are deposited beforehand by Microdel
or by the private investors, as defined below, in the Special
Account. Up until the Final Date, Microdel’s representative
shall have the right to sign on the Special Account together with the
Company’s authorized signatories (as a second
signature). Following the determining date this signatory right
shall become void and in the event of the Failure of the Offering the
Company shall be entitled to use the monies in the Special Account for its
own purposes, as it shall see fit, unless the provisions as stated in
section 13.1 and/or 13.2 shall apply. Should the Offering be
successful and all debts to third parties pursuant to the Offering process
are paid, the balance of the monies in the Special Account shall revert to
Microdel, as stated in section 5.3
above.
|
5.5.
|
Since
it might become necessary to open an account in the USA on behalf of the
Offered Company for the purpose of the Offering and to receive the
Offering monies, should the opening of such an account be required the
account shall be opened such that the signature rights therein shall be
the same as those of the Special Account, as specified in section 5.4
above. Should the Offering be successful the signature rights
to the said account shall be changed such that they shall be similar to
the signature rights as determined by the Offered
Company.
|
5.6.
|
In
the event the Company undertakes, at Microdel’s request, contractual
obligations for payments connected with the Offering (and shall do so only
provided the undertaking monies are deposited beforehand by Microdel in
the Special Account), and should these undertakings exceed the sums that
were planned between the parties and which served as a basis for
calculating the number of Unconditional Shares (or if the monies in the
Special Account shall be insufficient to pay these undertakings), then
Microdel undertakes to pay the Company any amount the Company will be
required to pay as stated, immediately upon the Company’s request, unless
the Offering is successful, and up to a sum that shall not exceed USD
80,000 to be paid, out of monies received as a result of the Offering, to
various service providers the payment of which is contingent upon the
Success of the Offering and which shall be paid by the Company out of the
Offering monies and not from the monies in the Special Account; in the
event of the Success of the Offering (hereinafter, “Participation Sum Contingent
Upon the Success of the Offering”). For this purpose,
the “Success of the Offering” shall have the meaning ascribed in section
3.2.3 above. It is clarified that the Participation Sum
Contingent Upon the Success of the Offering shall be paid by the Company
only if the Offering is successful, and not under any other
circumstances.

|
Allocation of Company Shares and Changing the
Articles of Incorporation
|
6.1.
|
As
a precondition for the Offering process, the minimum number of
shareholders in the Company prior to the Offering must be 40 shareholders,
and the Company’s shares must be uniform and with equal
rights. As part of the Offering process, in order to “vet” the
Company ahead of the Offering and so as to enable the Company to pay some
of the payments pursuant to the Offering that must be paid from the
Company account, Microdel “enlisted” and is expected to enlist, several
private investors, each one providing several thousand dollars, who have
agreed to invest sums of money in the Company (hereinafter, “the Private Investors”)
for a total sum of about USD 150,000 (hereinafter, “the Investment Sum of the
Private Investors”). For this purpose the Parties have
agreed as follows:
|
6.1.1.
|
Immediately
upon the signing of this agreement the Company shall adopt a special
resolution to change its Articles of Incorporation and to turn all of the
Company’s shares into ordinary shares with equal rights (hereinafter,
“the Resolution to
Equalize the Share Rights”) and the Special Resolution shall
include a provision to change Article 32(a) of the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation dealing with the shareholders’ right to refuse to purchase
the shares of another member, such that this right shall obligate every
shareholder to first offer his shares to those holding at least 5% of the
Company’s allocated capital such that the “offerees” according to this
provision shall only be those holding at least 5% of the Company’s
allocated capital. Microdel knows that the said resolution is a
special decision whose adoption requires a qualified majority at a general
meeting of the Company’s shareholders. Immediately upon signing
this contract the Company’s board of directors shall convene a general
meeting of shareholders, whose agenda shall include the adoption of the
said Special Resolution.
|
6.1.2.
|
Immediately
following the adoption of the said Resolution to Equalize the Share
Rights, if adopted, Microdel shall instruct the Company, in writing, to
allocate to each one of the Private Investors a quantity of Company shares
in exchange for the investment sum that shall be indicated in Microdel’s
written instruction, provided that the sum of all the shares allocated to
the Private Investors against the investment of USD 150,000 shall not
exceed the number of shares deducted from Microdel in order to calculate
the number of Unconditional Shares. It is hereby clarified and
agreed that shares allocated to the Private Investors against the
Investment Sum of the Private Investors shall be deducted in advance from
the number of Unconditional Shares such that the number of Unconditional
Shares shall be calculated according to the shares that were expected to
be allocated to the Private Investors. It is agreed that since
the monies from the Private Investors were designated, among other things,
to help finance the various Offering costs, then: (1) All of
the investment monies from the Private Investors shall be placed into the
Special Account; (2) An investment agreement shall be signed
with every Private Investor, the uniform wording of which shall be
acceptable to the Company; (3) At least 66% of the number of
Private Investors, as part of the investment agreement with them, shall
sign an irrevocable power of attorney authorizing the other shareholders
as their proxy to vote at the Company shareholders’ meeting (such that all
of the Private Investors together shall be represented by no more than 10
representatives, including the investors themselves); and instructions to
the Company to invite to the shareholders meetings the proxy, and that the
proxy’s address shall be considered as the investor’s
address. The power of attorney shall be valid until the
Offering, and even afterwards in the event of the Failure of the Offering,
so long as the Private Investors and/or their transferees are shareholders
in the Company. If the Offering is successful the private
investors shall be entitled to rescind the power of
attorney.
|
9
6.1.3.
|
Before
adopting the Resolution to Equalize the Share Rights, an agreement shall
be signed between all of the Current Shareholders in the Company,
including Microdel, arranging the manner in which future dividend payments
shall be divided among the Current Shareholders and which will coordinate,
insofar as this is possible, their rights in Company class A and class B
shares. The agreement shall include, inter alia,
instructions according to which the entire Company and/or its shareholders
shall not be permitted to force upon a Current Shareholder (as defined in
section 3.2.3 above) an order, according to which he would be subject to a
contractual lock-up period on his shares beyond the lock-up period
required by American law and by virtue of provisions of the Israeli income
tax ordinance; and that all of the shares of every Current Shareholder in
the Offered Company shall enjoy the same “registration rights” as those
enjoyed by the shares allocated to the institutional investors and the
shareholders to whom Company shares were allocated as part of the
Offering.
|
6.1.4.
|
Furthermore,
the agreement between the shareholders noted above shall include an order
according to which the Current Shareholders, with the exception of
Microdel, shall be obligated towards GPI Project Development, Ltd.
(hereinafter, “the
Incubator”) as follows:
|
(1)
|
Insofar
as a restriction applies on registering the Incubator’s shares for trading
and/or their sale (similar to the lock-up period under American law)
following the Offering (should this occur), then the Incubator’s shares
shall be registered for trade at the first opportunity in which the
Company shares of the other shareholders are registered following the
termination of the said
restriction.
|
(2)
|
Notwithstanding
the provisions of section (1) above, the Current Shareholders (except for
Microdel) shall undertake towards the Incubator that so long as there is a
restriction on the number of shares that can be registered for trade as
part of the Offering so that not all of the Current Shareholders can be
registered for trade, then the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel)
shall waive their right to register their relative portion of their shares
for trading and will allow the Incubator to register all of its shares for
trading before they register their own shares for trading. The
waiver by the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel) among themselves
shall be relative to the percentage of the holdings of the Current
Shareholders (except for Microdel and the
Incubator).
|
10
(3)
|
Should
a restriction apply in accordance with Israeli tax laws regarding the sale
of the shares of the Current Shareholders (that is, a lock-up period that
prevents them from selling their shares) and it isn’t possible to be
released from this restriction in exchange for payment of the tax the
Incubator shall be obligated to pay; or in the event the Israeli tax
authority demands that each of the Current Shareholders shall be subject
to restrictions it may impose as part of the “early approval” process,
without exception and without enabling the Incubator to be “released” from
this demand (even at the “cost” of its paying the tax, a demand to which
the Incubator agrees); then, despite the fact that the Incubator is part
of the aforementioned arrangement with the income tax authority, the
provisions of sub-paragraph (1) and (2) above shall also apply in the
event a restriction is imposed under Israeli tax
laws.
|
(4)
|
The
agreement outlined in this section above shall also apply in the event the
Offering is carried out in a different format, using the services of the
aforementioned Offering consultant as stated in section 10 below; however
it shall not apply in the case of an offering or capital-raising that is
not carried out through the said offering consultant and/or someone on his
behalf, nor shall it apply to any other offering that might take place
should the Offering referred to in this agreement not come to fruition and
the Company shall decide to undertake a different offering
procedure.
|
(5)
|
To
remove all doubt, the rights of the Incubator according to this section
shall apply even in a case in which, prior to the Offering, the Incubator
transfers, subject to the provisions of the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation, its shares in the Company to a third party and in the said
case the third party transferee shall be entitled to rights under this
section following the Offering (should it occur). However, the
said rights shall become void in the case where the shares are sold to a
third party after the Offering.
|
6.1.5.
|
The
Company is aware of the shareholders’ agreement and undertakes to act to
implement its provisions with regard to the relations between the Current
Shareholders regarding the registration rights of the Company shares for
trade and sale, as described above and in the agreement between the
shareholders.
|
11
6.2.
|
It
is hereby clarified that as part of the tax arrangement regarding the
transfer of the shares of the Company shareholders to the Offered Company
prior to the Offering process, there may be provisions that restrict the
shareholders, including a two-year restriction on the sale of shares in
the Offered Company, and a provision regarding the ownership of shares of
shareholders in the Offered Company by the Trustee they appoint and who
shall be responsible for the payment of tax in the event the shares are
sold. The Company shall act such that as part of the
shareholders agreement described in section 6.1.3 above, the Current
Shareholders shall agree to the provisions of the tax arrangement and
these shall not be used as grounds for their disapproval of the Offering,
and all subject to the provisions of section 6.1.4(3) regarding the
Incubator. This agreement is contingent upon the signing of the
agreement between the shareholders as described above in section 6.1.3 and
subject to the provisions of section 13.7
below
|

is hereby clarified and agreed that the Company responded to Microdel’s
request to engage these employees and to pay them their wages only on
condition and provided that the provisions of section 8 below have been
fulfilled, and in a manner such that the funding for the hiring of these
employees until the Offering and/or until the Final Date (as extended, if
extended) in the event the Offering fails to be executed, shall be
financed by Microdel, whether from the investment monies that the Private
Investors deposited into the Special Account in amounts that exceeded the
Offering expenses that were not contingent upon the success of the
Offering, which the Company imposed upon itself at Microdel’s request, as
stated above; or whether from monies received for this purpose by the
Company from Microdel (and which do not endow Microdel with the right to
receive additional shares in the Company, whether the Offering shall be a
success or a failure).
|
12
7.3.
|
The
Company shall appoint service providers, at Microdel’s expense, as stated
and under the conditions set forth in section 8.11 below, who will

hereby undertakes, absolutely and unconditionally, to finance the
Company’s ongoing activity for the period until the Final Date (and
extensions as described above, if extended) at the fixed monthly rate of
USD 10,000 per month (hereinafter, “the Fixed Monthly
Amount”). Microdel shall deposit, at the signing of this
contract, post-dated checks in the amount cited above, each check dated
for the first of the month for the period between April 1, 2009 and until
November 30, 2009. (It is hereby clarified that should the
Offering process be terminated for any reason prior to November 30, 2009,
checks that have not been cashed that related to the ongoing financing
pursuant to the period up until November 30, 2009 shall be returned, at
Microdel’s request, to Microdel, and provided there are no financial
obligations relating to these sums). Furthermore, Microdel
shall finance the cost of employing the personnel hired to work for the
Company, as stated in section 7 above (hereinafter, “Amount of Funding for the
Interim Period”). The Amount of the Funding for the
Interim Period may be covered by using the monies deposited in the Special
Account from the funds invested by the Private Investors, provided that at
any given time the balance in the Special Account shall be sufficient to
cover all of the Company’s undertakings to third parties that are not
contingent upon the outcome of the Offering. It is clarified
that sums that are paid by Microdel for the purpose of financing the
employment of personnel hired in accordance with section 7 above pursuant
to the period until the completion of the Offering shall not endow
Microdel with the right to receive shares in the Company and the Company
shall not be obligated to return it, and this amount shall be in addition
to the minimum monthly sum of USD 10,000 as described above and in
additional to ongoing financing as described below. The sum of
the Amount of Funding for the Interim Period (but not including funding
for personnel and service providers hired as described in section 7
above), provided it has been redeemed and paid, shall be considered as an
investment by Microdel in the Company and shall entitle Microdel to
Company shares in accordance with the principles of the Primary
Agreement. The Amount of USD 80,000 for Interim Funding for the
period of April-November 2009 shall be taken into account as part of the
Conditional Shares and shall not entitle Microdel to any additional
shares.
|
13
It
is hereby clarified that financing for the Company’s ongoing activity
during the period until the Offering date may exceed the monthly sum of
USD 10,000. Funding shall be carried out by Microdel and/or
other shareholders. In the event additional shareholders other
than Microdel cannot be found to finance the Company’s activities,
Microdel undertakes to finance the Company’s activities to the extent
necessary in order to continue its operations on the one hand, and to
ensure the success of the Offering on the other hand, provided that any
expense funded by Microdel shall be part of the work plan until the
Offering date. This work plan shall be prepared by Microdel,
the Company’s director-general and Golan
Gilead.

successfully the total fee for its work on the Offering process shall be
USD 35,000. CPA Xxxxx Xxxx shall continue to serve as the
Company’s accountant during the interim period until the Final
Date. It is hereby clarified that the agreement for payment of

assisting him in with the Offering shall be signed between the Company and
the aforementioned CPAs, provided that the fee pursuant to the Offering
process and which is not contingent upon the outcome of the Offering are
first deposited into the Special Account by Microdel. Microdel
undertakes that until the sums of money needed to pay the CPA’s fees are
deposited into the Special Account, it shall assume the payment of the
fees (that are not contingent upon the outcome of the Offering) to the
said CPAs, provided that the sum of the Company’s participation in the
Offering expenses in the event of the success of the Offering shall not

9.3.
|
To
the extent that this is within the Company’s power, the Company shall act
such that the composition of the board of directors ahead of the Offering
shall be changed and shall be as outlined in Appendix 9.3; and the
Company, with the assistance of Microdel, shall act, as may be necessary,
to change the composition of the board of directors and to appoint outside
advisors to the board of directors. The number of directors and
outside advisors and their identity shall be agreed upon
separately.
|
It
is hereby agreed that in any event the appointment shall be made in
exchange for a letter of agreement to serve as a director, which shall be
signed by every said director and advisor. Until the completion
of the Offering the directors and the advisors shall not be entitled to
receive any wages whatsoever. The voting power of each director
shall be as appears in the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation.
|
9.4.
|
The
Company shall act so that its shareholders, in accordance with the powers
granted by the Articles of Incorporation, shall appoint Xx. Xxxxx Xx Xxxxx
as chairman of the board of directors. The Company’s board of
directors shall be permitted, by an ordinary majority, to replace the
chairman of the board. The directors appointed by Microdel
shall not participate in this vote. Subject to the above
provisions regarding the right of the board of directors to replace the
chairman, it is hereby agreed that if the Offering does not go into effect
the position of the chairman of the board shall become void and the board
of directors shall appoint another chairman to replace Xx. Xx
Xxxxx.
|
9.5.
|
Furthermore,
so long as the Offering process remains unchanged, two directors shall be
appointed to the Company’s board of directors as per Microdel’s request –
Xx. Xxxxx Xx Xxxxx and Xx. Xxxx Tzifroni, and this despite the fact that
according to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation Microdel is not
permitted to appoint two directors, but rather only one
director. It is clarified that the weight attributed to the
votes of the two directors together shall be the same as the relative
weight of the number of Unconditional Shares relative to the total number
of Company shares allocated. Should the Offering process fail
Microdel’s right in this regard shall become void immediately, its
directors shall cease to serve as such and Microdel shall be entitled to
appoint directors in accordance with the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation, and this shall be the case in the event the Offering is
successful. In the event the Offering is successful this
section shall become void and the appointment of the directors shall be
according to the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation.

Approving

Officers
|
12.1.
|
The
Company undertakes to examine the business plan prepared by Microdel, to
make any comments it may have and to approve it following its correction,
as such correction may be required; to submit it to American funds and
institutions once it has been determined that the information contained
therein faithfully reflects the facts and the Company’s status and that
its remarks and criticisms have been amended. The Company shall
be entitled to perform the said examination through the Consulting
Attorney. The parties have chosen the Consulting Attorney for
this matter, and the scope of his employment shall be defined by the
Company. The Company’s representatives, including members of
its board of directors, shall be permitted to contact the Consulting
Attorney directly and to ask him for clarifications and answers to their
questions. The cost of the Consulting Attorney’s fee shall be
paid by Microdel as stated in section 11 above out of the monies in the
Special Account, provided that the Special Account shall actually have
sufficient funds to cover all of the Company’s undertakings related to the
Offering. In the event that the Special Account does not have
sufficient funds as stated, Microdel shall pay the fee for the Consulting
Attorney, and any other expense related to the Offering process, from its
own sources. The Company shall make every effort to
approve the business plan not later than June 18, 2009, provided this is

Attorney.

The
parties undertake to take out liability insurance for the officers, which
will insure the liability of the Company’s officers including their
involvement in the Offering process, in the amounts that are standard in
these types of proceedings and in accordance with the opinion of the
Consulting Attorney. The policy will be issued upon approval of
the Offering by the American Securities and Exchange Commission, and shall
be a prerequisite for executing the offering. The officers’
liability insurance shall be issued by the Offering date in the amounts
and with coverage as required by the Offering process as advised by the
Consulting Attorney, and Microdel shall assume the costs of the said
officers’ insurance until the Offering date from the monies deposited in
the Special Account, provided that this account shall have sufficient
funds to pay the expenses that are not contingent on the outcome of the
Offering which the Company has undertaken to
pay.

General
|
13.1.
|
The
parties shall cooperate with each other for the purpose of executing the
Offering; however, it is hereby agreed that the Company’s consent to
cooperate with Microdel to execute the Offering does not constitute its
consent to any demand that may be raised in the future by professionals
hired and chosen by Microdel to direct the Offering and/or its consent to
any demand that may be raised by the institutional
investors. Should the Company refuse to respond to a demand
that may be raised in the future, even if such refusal should impede the
execution of the Offering, Microdel shall not be entitled to any relief
whatsoever against the Company, its officers and/or its shareholders; and
these entities are aware that the risk regarding non-execution of the
Offering is solely Microdel’s. Nevertheless, it is hereby
agreed that the Company shall not refuse to respond to future demands on
unreasonable grounds. It is hereby clarified that even if the
arbitrator shall determine that the board of directors refused Microdel’s
demand on unreasonable grounds, the only relief that Microdel shall be
entitled to receive, as final and exhaustive relief, shall be against the
Company only, according to which the sums actually paid by Microdel to
third parties (less a sum of USD 55,000 by which the Company shall
indemnify Microdel pursuant to its participation in the cost of the
Offering Consultant as stated in section 13.3, to the extent the said
amount is paid as indemnification in accordance with the terms of the said
section), but not more than USD 80,000 for the purpose of executing the
Offering, shall be calculated as the sum of its investment in the Company;
and in exchange for this sum, Microdel shall be entitled to shares in the
Company in accordance with the key set forth in the Primary
Agreement. It is clarified that the aforementioned shall not
constitute accepted compensation but rather a limitation on the Company’s
liability in the event it is decided that the response by the Company’s
board of directors to Microdel’s demands regarding the Offering process
were not reasonable or logical. Moreover, in addition to the
said offering of shares, Microdel shall be entitled to withdraw in such a
case the funds remaining in the Special Account beyond those unconditional
amounts the Company undertook to pay to third parties (monies in the
Special Account earmarked to cover the Company’s undertakings to third
parties shall not be returned to Microdel). The abovementioned
in this section is the final relief available to Microdel subject to the
provisions of section 13.3 below. In any case and in no case
shall Microdel have any claims or disputes against members of the board of
directors or the Company’s
shareholders.
|
13.2.
|
In
the event the Offering process does not result in an offering by the Final
Date, for any reason whatsoever, Microdel shall pay all of the Offering
expenses, without exception, beyond the sums deposited in the Special
Account; and shall indemnify the Company for any claim brought against it
in connection with undertakings assumed by the Company, at Microdel’s
request, to pay sums related to the Offering process (beyond the sums
found in the Special Account). In such a case Microdel shall
have no claims and/or demands against the Company and/or against any of
its offers, except as stated above in this sub-section; and Microdel shall
not have any right to invest monies in the Company in exchange for shares
of Company stock. The Primary Agreement will be terminated, the
Conditional Shares will be transferred by the Trustee to the Current
Shareholders (except for Microdel) as stated above in section 3.2 and
Microdel shall be entitled to continue to own only the Unconditional
Shares. And all of these stipulations are subject to the
provisions of section 13.1 above and section 13.3 below – reliefs Microdel
may receive from the Company only in the cases described in the said
sections. Beyond the reliefs described in these sections,
Microdel shall have no right to any relief vis-à-vis the Company; with
regard to its officers and its shareholders, Microdel shall not have the
right to any relief whatsoever, in any
case.
|
18
13.3.
|
Notwithstanding
the stipulations of section 13.2 above, in this section it is agreed that,
subject to the fulfillment of Microdel’s undertakings in this agreement,
including payment of the Funding for the Interim Period, in the event the
Offering process is terminated because the Company’s board of directors
initiates a decision to halt the process prior to the Final Date due to
the Company’s desire to convert the Offering process into an alternative
process to raise capital funding (hereinafter, “Initiated Termination due to
Alternative Capital Raising”); or in the case where the Company
deliberately obstructs the Offering process with a clear intention to
thwart the Offering (hereinafter, “Deliberate
Termination”), then the provisions of section 13.1 above shall
apply (that is, additional shares will be issued to Microdel pursuant to
the sums it actually paid to finance the Offering less the sum of USD
55,000, up to a ceiling as specified in this sub-section, and the balance
of the monies in the Special Account will be returned to Microdel
regarding sums the Company did not undertake to pay to third parties);
additionally, the company shall indemnify Microdel in the amount of USD
55,000 in order to pay compensation to the Consultant.; and this
compensation amount shall be paid, in the event of an Initiated
Termination due to Alternative Capital Raising, only from the monies
received through the said alternative capital raising. The
burden of proof in the event of a Deliberate Termination shall be a
greater burden of proof and shall apply to Microdel, while hereby
clarifying that only the objection of the Company and/or its officers
and/or any of its shareholders to the demands that have been expressly
agreed to in this contract, or new, inconsequential demands that are
raised about the Offering that imply minor restrictions but which do not
jeopardize at all, or jeopardize only slightly, the rights of the
shareholders and/or the Company and which causes the termination of the
Offering process – shall be considered a Deliberate
Termination. The amount of the compensation contained in this
section shall be the final and exhaustive compensation, and except for
this Microdel shall have no right to claim and/or right to relief of any
kind vis-à-vis the Company and its officers. This relief is a
relief that Microdel is entitled to receive from the Company only, and not
from its officers. The provisions of this section replace any
decision and/or undertaking and/or document, if any, relating to an
undertaking for compensation to Microdel in the event the Offering process
is terminated.
|
13.4.
|
Microdel
states that the institutional bodies that are slated to invest funds in
the Offered Company have not raised any demands regarding the lock-up
period that will apply to the shares of all the Current Shareholders in
the Company, such that the lock-up period shall not extend beyond the
period required by American law and the provisions of the Israeli Income
Tax Ordinance, without any additional period of time. Microdel
further states that it has been made clear by the Consultant that the
registration rights for the shares of the Current Shareholders in the
Offered Company shall be identical to the registration rights of the
institutional shareholders.
|
19
13.5.
|
In
the event of a dispute regarding the interpretation, implementation or
fulfillment of this agreement and any other matter related thereto, the
parties are authorized to appoint an acceptable arbitrator to serve as
sole judge. In the event the parties cannot agree between
themselves regarding the identity of the arbitrator within 14 days after
either party requests to appoint an arbitrator, then the arbitrator shall
be appointed by the chairperson of the Tel Aviv district of the Israel Bar
Association after being contacted by either of the parties. The
arbitrator shall not be bound by the laws of evidence or the rules of
procedure, and shall not be required to justify his ruling. It
is hereby clarified that the only relief to which Microdel is entitled
vis-à-vis the Company shall be the reliefs cited in sections 13.1 and/or
13.2 above, and that aside from realizing these reliefs Microdel shall not
be entitled to any relief.
|
13.6.
|
Microdel
shall be entitled to decide at any time to terminate the Offering process,
without the Company and/or any of its shareholders having any grounds for
suit against Microdel or anyone it its behalf; provided that Microdel
assumes all of the expenses, without exception, that were caused and may
be caused to the company as a result of the Offering
process.
|
13.7.
|
Section
6 of the Primary Agreement shall be voided, and upon signing this
agreement, Microdel shall not have the right to invest any monies in the
Company according to the Primary
Agreement.
|
13.8.
|
Microdel
knows that his agreement is contingent upon the signing of an agreement
between the shareholders who agree, unanimously, to execute the Offering
in the manner described in this agreement, and to the restrictions and
impediments contained therein (hereinafter, “the Suspending
Condition”). Non-fulfillment of the Suspending Condition
shall not constitute a breach of this contract by the Company and shall
not entitle Microdel to any relief whatsoever; however, if the Suspending
Condition is not fulfilled by June 30, 2009, this Agreement shall be
considered null and void and the parties shall have not claims or demands
one against the other in connection with the Offering
process.
