2.3.
|
Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time, during the term of this Warrant:
|
2.3.1.
|
distributes bonus shares, the effective date for the distribution of which takes place after the Issue Date, but before the Expiration Date, the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled upon the exercise of this Warrant shall increase by the number of the Shares that the Holder would have been entitled to as bonus shares, had he exercised the Warrant prior to the effective date for the distribution of the bonus shares. The exercise price of each Warrant Share shall not vary as a result of the increase in the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled in the wake of the distribution of bonus shares, provided, however that such adjustment will take place only if and when the Warrant is exercised and only in respect of the amount of Warrant Shares that will be exercised.
|
2.3.2
|
grants rights to acquire any securities whatsoever offered to the Company’s shareholders by way of rights, the Company shall act with a view that the number of Warrant Shares that the Holder is entitled to upon the exercise of the Warrant will be increased by multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Warrant by the Benefit Ratio (as defined below),provided, however that (i) such adjustment will take place only if and when this Warrant is exercised, (ii) only in respect of the amount of Warrant Shares that will be exercised and (iii) in no event will the number of Warrant Shares be decreased. For the purposes of this Warrant, “Benefit Ratio” means the price of the Company's share in the TASE on the record date for the right to participate in the said issuance of rights divided by the base price of the Company's share in the TASE “ex-rights”.
|
|
2.3.3
|
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a record date as mentioned in this Section 2.3 is fixed and bonus shares are not fully granted or if rights are not fully distributed on the date fixed thereof, the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the number of shares of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.3 as of the time of actual issuance of bonus shares or distributions of rights..
|
2.4.
|
Anti-Dilution Adjustment. If, while this Warrant, or any portion hereof, remains outstanding and unexpired, the Company issues or sells any securities or any instrument convertible into securities of the Company for a price per share below $3.0 per share, as adjusted for dividends or bonus shares on its Ordinary Shares in kind, or subdivides, splits or reverse splits the outstanding Ordinary Shares into a different number of Ordinary Shares, then the number of Warrant Shares underlying this Warrant shall be adjusted on the basis of a standard anti-dilution formula, such that following such adjustment the number of Warrant Shares underlying this Warrant upon their exercise, shall confer the Holder with the same amount of voting power as the Warrant Shares underlying this Warrant have on the date immediately prior to such issuance, provided, however that such adjustment is subject to the following: (i) filing of an immediate report regarding such allocation of additional warrants; and (ii) receipt of all approvals required by law for such allocation of additional warrants, including the approval of the TASE. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions, and to do all things necessary, proper or advisable (subject to any applicable laws) to obtain such approvals. In case that such approvals can not be obtained, the parties will negotiate alternative solutions to the anti dilution adjustment.
