AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and premises contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Article 1
THE MERGER

1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the ICL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company, as the Surviving Company in the Merger (the “Surviving Company”), shall by virtue of the Merger (i) become a private wholly owned direct subsidiary of Parent, (ii) continue its corporate existence under the Laws of the State of Israel, (iii) maintain a registered office in the State of Israel, and (iv) succeed to and assume all of the rights, properties and obligations of Merger Sub and the Company in accordance with the ICL.

1.2 Effective Time. As soon as practicable after the determination of the date on which the Closing is to take place, each of the Company and Merger Sub shall (and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to), in coordination with each other, deliver to the Companies Registrar a notice of the contemplated Merger and the proposed date of the Closing on which the Companies Registrar is requested to issue a certificate evidencing the Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (the “Certificate of Merger”) after notice that the Closing has occurred is served to the Companies Registrar, which the parties shall deliver on the Closing Date. The Merger shall become effective upon the issuance by the Companies Registrar of the Certificate of Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (such time as the Merger becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time”). For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the Merger shall be declared effective and that the issuance by the Companies Registrar of the Certificate of Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL shall both occur on or immediately following the Closing Date.

1.3 The Closing. Unless this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with Section 6.1, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Xxxxx Xxxxx & Co. located at 1 Azrieli Center, Tel Aviv, Israel, on or prior to the third (3rd) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article 5 (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) or such other date as Parent and the Company shall mutually designate. The date on which the Closing takes place is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

1.4 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and in the applicable provisions of the ICL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Company, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Surviving Company.

1.5 Closing Purchase Price. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the aggregate consideration to be paid by Parent shall be an amount in cash equal to $10,000,000, plus Restricted Cash and up to $1,100,000 of Cash, if any, held by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries at the close of business on the Closing Date, less, without duplication, at the close of business on the Closing Date, (a) any amounts outstanding pursuant to Third-Party Indebtedness (other than pursuant to Convertible Debentures which are subject to a duly executed and delivered Debenture Termination Agreement, which is in full force and effect and has not been revoked, suspended, canceled, rescinded or terminated), (b) any amounts outstanding under the Loan Agreement including, without limitation, principal, premium, if any, interest and penalties with respect thereto, (c) any Excess Payables, (d) any Company Professional Fees, (e) the Executive Severance Amount, (f) any unfunded severance liability of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries with respect to Israeli Employees, (g) any severance liability of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries with respect to Company Employees (other than Israeli Employees) that is not disclosed in Part 1.5 of the Disclosure Schedule, (h) the Warrant Termination Amount and (i) the Debenture Termination Amount (the “Closing Purchase Price”). No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a statement certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer setting forth, to Parent’s satisfaction, (x) the amounts of Restricted Cash and Cash, if any, held by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries at the close of business on the Closing Date, (y) the Company’s calculation of each of the amounts set forth in clauses (a) through (i) of this Section 1.5, and (z) using the amounts referred to in the preceding clauses (x) and (y), the resulting Closing Purchase Price, together with copies of such documents and information used by the Company in its calculation of such amounts as are necessary for Parent to review and verify such amounts.

-3-

1.6 Conversion of Company Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any holder of any ordinary shares, par value NIS 7.2 each, of the Company (the “Company Shares”, and each a “Company Share”):

(i) subject to Section 1.6(b), each Company Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be deemed transferred to Parent in exchange for the right to receive an amount, in cash (rounded to the nearest cent), without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax, equal to the quotient of (A) the Closing Purchase Price divided by (B) the number of Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (such amount, the “Merger Consideration”); and

(ii) each ordinary share, par value NIS 0.01 per share, of Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) If, during the period commencing on the Agreement Date and ending at the Effective Time, the Company Shares are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, then the Merger Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted and such adjustment to the Merger Consideration shall provide to the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action.

1.7 Company Equity Awards.

(a) Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any Company Options in connection with the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the Effective Time, each Company Option, whether or not then exercisable or vested, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any optionholder, shall be canceled and substituted into the right to receive from Parent or the Surviving Company, promptly following the Effective Time, an amount in cash equal to the Option Consideration, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax. “Option Consideration” means, with respect to each Company Option, the product (rounded to the nearest cent) of: (i) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price of such Company Option; and (ii) the aggregate number of Company Shares subject to such Company Option; provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of any such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Company Option shall be canceled and terminated without any payment being made in respect thereof.

-4-

(b) Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any Company RSU in connection with the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU (which shall be deemed to be fully vested), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of such Company RSU, shall be canceled and substituted into the right to receive from Parent or the Surviving Company, promptly following the Effective Time, an amount in cash, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding Tax, equal to the product of: (i) the Merger Consideration; and (ii) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company RSU (the “RSU Consideration”).

(c) As of the Effective Time, the Incentive Plans shall terminate and all rights under any provision of any other plan, program or arrangement providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the share capital of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be canceled.

(d) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to approve and effectuate the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.7, including making any determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee thereof or any administrator of the Incentive Plans as may be necessary, so as to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time, holders of Company Options and Company RSUs have no rights with respect thereto other than those specifically provided in this Section 1.7.

1.8 Termination of Company Warrants. Immediately after the Effective Time, all Company Warrants outstanding at Closing will automatically terminate in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Warrant Termination Agreements.

1.9 Termination of Convertible Debentures. Immediately after the Effective Time, all Convertible Debentures outstanding at Closing will automatically terminate in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Debenture Termination Agreement.

1.10 Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time, the shareholder register of the Company shall be closed with respect to registrations of transfers of any and all Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such Company Shares shall be made on the shareholder register after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid certificate representing Company Shares, which shares were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 1.6, (a “Company Share Certificate”) (or, in the case of Company Shares represented by book-entry (“Book Entry Shares”)) is presented to the Payment Agent or to the Surviving Company or Parent, such Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Shares shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.11 below.

-5-

1.11 Surrender of Certificates.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as payment agent in the Merger (the “Payment Agent”). At the Effective Time, Parent shall have deposited with the Payment Agent cash in an amount equal to the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 1.6. The cash amount so deposited with the Payment Agent is referred to as the “Payment Fund”. The Payment Agent will invest the funds included in the Payment Fund in the manner directed by Parent; provided, however, that (i) no such investment or losses thereon shall affect the Merger Consideration payable to the holders of the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) following any such losses that result in the amount of funds in the Payment Fund being insufficient to promptly pay the portion of the aggregate Merger Consideration that remains unpaid, Parent shall immediately provide additional funds to the Payment Agent to the extent of such insufficiency and (iii) such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, or in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively. Any interest or other income resulting from the investment of such funds shall be the property of Parent. Except for Parent’s obligation to provide additional funds to the Payment Agent in the event that losses incurred as a result of investment decisions directed by Parent result in the amount of funds in the Payment Fund being insufficient, the receipt of the Payment Fund by the Payment Agent shall be sufficient to discharge the Parent’s obligation to pay the amount of cash in question, and the Parent shall have no responsibility or liability, under any circumstances, for the allocation thereof among the Company’s shareholders.

(b) Within five (5) Business Days after the Effective Time, the Payment Agent will mail to the Persons who were record holders of Company Share Certificates or Book Entry Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form; and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Company Share Certificates or Book Entry Shares in exchange for Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share to the Payment Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Payment Agent or Parent: (A) the holder of such Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration; and (B) each Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.11(b), each Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive Merger Consideration as contemplated by Section 1.6. If any Company Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent or the Payment Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the payment of any Merger Consideration with respect to the Company Shares previously represented by such Company Share Certificate, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Share Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond in such reasonable amount as Parent or the Payment Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Payment Agent, Parent or the Surviving Company with respect to such Company Share Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.11, any Merger Consideration payable in respect of Company Shares (“Company 102 Shares”) issued upon exercise of Company Options subject to Section 102 of the Ordinance that are held by the 102 Trustee (“Company 102 Options”) or issued upon vesting of Company RSUs subject to Section 102 of the Ordinance (“Company 102 RSUs”) shall be transferred by the Payment Agent, in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.11 (including the requirement to surrender the Company Share Certificates and letters of transmittal by the 102 Trustee with respect to such Company 102 Shares), to the 102 Trustee, for the benefit of the beneficial owners thereof, and be released by the 102 Trustee to the beneficial holders of such Company 102 Shares, in accordance with the requirements of Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Option Tax Ruling, if obtained.

-6-

(c) Any portion of the Payment Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Share Certificates or Book Entry Shares as of the date that is one (1) year after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Share Certificates or Book Entry Shares who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Share Certificates or Book Entry Shares in accordance with this Section 1.11 shall thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for the Merger Consideration.

(d) At or as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Company shall transfer the aggregate Option Consideration and RSU Consideration with respect to Company 102 Options and Company 000 XXXx to the 102 Trustee, on behalf of holders of Company 102 Options and Company 102 RSUs, in accordance with Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Option Tax Ruling, if obtained (the “102 Amounts”). The 102 Amounts shall be held in trust by the 102 Trustee pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Option Tax Ruling, if obtained, and shall be released by the 102 Trustee, together with any interest earned thereon by virtue of the investment of such amounts by the 102 Trustee, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 102 of the Ordinance and the Option Tax Ruling, if obtained.

(e) At or as soon as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Company shall promptly deposit the aggregate amount of funds payable in respect of Company Options and/or Company RSUs (other than Company 102 Options and Company 102 RSUs) with the Surviving Company or the applicable Company Subsidiary, at one or more accounts designated by the Company prior to Closing for the benefit of the holders of such Company Options or Company RSUs.

(f) Each of the Payment Agent, Parent, the Surviving Company and the 102 Trustee (each, a “Payor”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable to any holder of any Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share (in his or her capacity as a holder of Company Shares), any Company Options and/or any Company RSUs, such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld from such consideration under the Code, the Ordinance, the Withholding Tax Ruling and the Option Tax Ruling, if obtained, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law or under any other applicable Law; provided, however, that with respect to withholding of Israeli Tax, in the event any holder of record of Company Shares, Company Options or Company RSUs provides the Payor with a valid withholding certificate issued by the ITA regarding the withholding (or exemption from withholding) of Israeli Tax from the consideration payable in respect thereof in accordance with this Article 1 to Parent’s satisfaction, then the deduction and withholding of any amounts under the Ordinance or any other provision of Israeli Law or requirement, if any, from the Merger Consideration or the Option Consideration payable to such holder of record of Company Shares, Company Options or Company RSUs shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such withholding certificate. For such purpose, the Withholding Tax Ruling and the Option Tax Ruling will be considered a valid withholding certificate provided that if the applicable ruling requires the affirmative consent of the relevant holder, such holder consented to join any such applicable ruling. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. Any withholding made in New Israeli Shekels with respect to payments made hereunder in U.S. dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate not lower than the applicable rate on the Closing Date and in such manner as the Parent determines in its absolute and sole discretion to be in compliance with legal requirements, and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the recipient and deducted from payments to be made to such payment recipient.

-7-

(g) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Company shall be liable to any holder of any Company Share Certificate or Book Entry Share or to any other Person with respect to any Merger Consideration or Option Consideration delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property Law, escheat Law or similar Law.

In compliance with the requirements of the ICL and the Company’s Charter Documents, the Company Board, by resolutions duly adopted by unanimous vote of the Company Board at a meeting duly called and held, which resolutions have not as of the Agreement Date been subsequently rescinded, modified or withdrawn in any way, has: (i) determined that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, are fair to and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders; (ii) determined that no reasonable concern exists that the Surviving Company will be unable to fulfill the obligations of the Company to its creditors; (iii) approved this Agreement and the Merger on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; (iv) resolved to recommend that the shareholders of the Company adopt this Agreement (such recommendation, the “Company Board Recommendation”) and (v) directed that this Agreement be submitted to the shareholders of the Company for their adoption at the Company Shareholders Meeting.
