ratio of their rights at the determining date, and he shall also
record the options that shall be added to the beneficiaries from

of the Company and of the beneficiary or beneficiaries affected
by such change, as the case may be.

specified times, all pursuant to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Trustee shall transfer to the beneficiaries the

Ordinance and the Regulations.
4. THE TRUSTEE'S DUTIES AND POWERS
The Company and the beneficiaries hereby instruct the Trustee to act
with the options which
4
it holds and with the rights deriving therefrom in the following manner:
4.1 The Trustee shall apply to the authorities in a request for
approval of the trust as obligated by the provisions.
4.2 If the Company shall distribute bonus shares during the term of
the trust, the bonus shares that shall be distributed to the
Trustee in respect of the options pursuant to this Agreement
shall belong to the beneficiaries and they shall be credited to
them pro rata to their entitlement to the options according to

their behalf which are not fully paid up, whether they are
options under this Agreement or additional rights as specified
in section 4 above, and in the event that a demand for payment
is received for the conversion of the options into shares or
other rights that are conditioned on payment, the Beneficiaries
shall pay the required sums immediately upon receipt of a
request from the Trustee in connection with it. Failure to
satisfy this requirement may bring to such results as if the
Beneficiaries ceased to be employed in the Company.
7.2 Every liability and every amount that a holder of the options is
under a duty to pay and all the obligations applicable pursuant
to the Companies Ordinance and the Company's documents of
incorporation to a holder of options or shares or a member of
the Company, shall be passed on from the Trustee to the
beneficiaries pursuant to the proportion of the options or the
shares held by the Trustee for the benefit of the beneficiaries.
7.3 The beneficiaries hereby confirm that they acknowledge that if
payment demands of them are not complied with, the Company may
forfeit the options held on their behalf by the Trustee pursuant
to the Company's Articles of Association and the results of the
forfeiture shall apply to each beneficiary in accordance with
the option for shares held on trust on his behalf by the
Trustee.
7.4 If the Trustee receives demands, requests, notices and claims,
including payment calls, demands for payments at the time of the
Company's winding up, notices in respect of forfeiting the
shares or any other demand, the Trustee shall, immediately upon
the receipt thereof, send them to each of the beneficiaries in
respect of whose shares held on his behalf by the Trustee the
said demands were received, to the beneficiary's address as
appearing in his participation notice or to another address
which the beneficiary sent the Trustee, provided that they shall
be sent in writing and the liability deriving from the said
demands shall apply to the beneficiary alone.
8
7.5 The beneficiaries' liability pursuant to this clause shall apply
in accordance with the shares held on their behalf. If any
charge or payment demand whatsoever shall relate to shares held
for a number of beneficiaries, each beneficiary shall be liable
for the charge or the payment demand pro rata to the options
held on his behalf.
8. TERMINATION OF THE TRUST
8.1 If the Trustee holds options or shares for any beneficiary,
during the Vesting Period that shall not be less than two years,
the shares or options shall be transferred to the beneficiary's
possession either on its own initiative or on the beneficiary's
initiative, on the following terms and conditions:
8.1.1 The Company notified the Trustee that the employee is
continuously employed by the Company for the whole
vesting period, and continues to be employed by the
Company and he has requested to exercise an option and
has paid the Company the exercise price.

at any time whatsoever and for any reason whatsoever, the trust
for him shall expire at the time of the termination of
employee-employer relations. Expiration of the Trust upon
termination of the employee-employer relationship will be

time.
8.3 If a Participating Employee exercises a right as a beneficiary
by way of exercising the conversion of an option into a share
that shall be actually allotted, subject to all the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the trust shall expire in respect
of the part of the option converted and actually allotted at
such time.

9.1 If the Company notifies the Trustee that for the purposes of an
issue of shares to the public an undertaking by the beneficiary
option holders is required, pursuant whereto they undertake a
restriction on the transfer of the shares of which they are
beneficiaries or to which they are entitled pursuant to the
options or the trading of such shares, the Trustee shall be
entitled to assume the undertaking as aforesaid, provided that
such an undertaking shall not prevent it transferring options to
the
9
beneficiaries, subject to the beneficiaries assuming the said
undertaking.
9.2 If as a condition for the issue of shares to the public the
option holders shall be required to undertake not to sell them
during a specific period (hereinafter referred to as "the
restriction period"), the Company is entitled to make demand of
the Trustee to join in giving an undertaking as aforesaid, and
in the event of a demand as aforesaid the Trustee shall accede

in clause 6 above, has not yet terminated, and in such case the
trust period shall be extended by the restriction period and the
beneficiaries shall have no complaint in consequence thereof.

issue to the public with the intention of listing the Company's
shares for trading on a stock exchange either in Israel or
abroad. The beneficiaries empower the Trustee to sign any
document which, in the opinion of the Company's board of
directors, is required to enable an issue as aforesaid,
including changes to the Company's documents of incorporation
and including changes in its capital structure, provided that
the changes shall not result in the shares the subject of the
options held in trust by the Trustee having inferior rights
(save for voting rights) compared with the rights which other
shares of the Company confer.
In the event that the shares are registered for trading, as
aforesaid, the employee shall be permitted to apply to the
Commissioner in a request that his shares will be seen as sold
pursuant to the average stock exchange price-list in the first
three days of trading.
10. NON-TRANSFERABILITY
The rights to the options pursuant to this Agreement and the shares that
shall be allotted to the Participating Employee pursuant thereto and

manner whatsoever, including by way of pledge, charge, attachment,
assignment and the like.

transferred by way of implementing a will of an employee or his
inheritance if the employee dies on a date when he was an actual
employee of the Company.

perform its duties, the Company is entitled to appoint another trustee
and in such event the Trustee shall transfer the options it is holding
to the other trustee and the replacement trustee shall replace the
Trustee for all intents and purposes.

other holders of options or shares of the Company to which the
trust arrangement does not apply.
12.2 The parties are aware that additional employees of the Company
own rights in shares or to receive shares in other arrangements,
and it is hereby expressly agreed that this Agreement does not
apply to and does not affect or howsoever impair rights of other
shareholders of the Company or persons entitled to shares of the
Company, including employees entitled as aforesaid.

Trustee, directly or indirectly, shall not render the Trustee
liable for any payment whatsoever. In any event in which the
Trustee is directly or indirectly ordered to make any payment in
connection with its actions as trustee, the Company undertakes
to directly effect and make the payment which shall be required,
for so long as it is a payment relating to the trust, or to
indemnify the Trustee for a payment as aforesaid upon demand
received from it.
13.2 Save in regard to the subjects detailed in clause 7 above, if

the payment in its stead and shall effect the payment on the
required date, and the Trustee shall not be liable to indemnify
the Company for such payment.

liability for a negligent act or omission, and the Company shall

act or omission.

omissions which were done with malice or lack of good faith.

Trustee shall be registered in the Company's register of
shareholders as the owner of the options for shares held by it
on trust.
14.2 The Company shall pay the Trustee's remuneration.

beneficiaries' right shall also be diluted in accordance
therewith, and the beneficiaries shall not have any complaint or

for beneficiaries participating in the trust, in its discretion.

to pay the tax upon demand pursuant to this Agreement or to
deduct the imposed tax from the amounts due or that shall be due
to the beneficiary, and such being in addition to any other

is imposed upon the Company, the Trustee shall be under a duty,
upon the Company's demand, to deduct the said tax and to remit
the amount collected to the Company, as the case may be.
