him
hereunder to be registered pursuant to this Section 6) for an offering to be
made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415. Such Registration Statement
shall be on Form F-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register
for
resale the Registrable Securities on Form F-3, in which case such
registration shall be on another appropriate form in accordance herewith) and
shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the Purchasers and agreed by
the
Company) the “Plan
of Distribution”
attached hereto as ANNEX
B.
The
Company shall take all reasonable steps required to cause such Registration
Statement to become effective and remain effective as provided herein. The
Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration
Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as
possible after the filing thereof, and shall use, subject to applicable law,
its
commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously
effective under the Securities Act until the date which is two (2) years after
the date that such Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC
or
such earlier date when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement have been sold or all such Registrable Securities may be sold without
volume or other restrictions pursuant to Rule 144, as determined by the counsel
to the Company pursuant to a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed
and acceptable to the Company’s transfer agent and the affected Purchasers (the
“Effectiveness
Period”).

In

shall:
(a) Not
less
than four Trading Days prior to the filing of the Registration Statement or
any
related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, (i) furnish to the
Purchasers copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (including
documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference, unless such
documents are already publicly available) which documents will be subject to
the
reasonable review of such Purchasers, and (ii) cause its officers and directors,
counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such
inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel
to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities
Act.
The Company shall not file the Registration Statement or any such Prospectus
or
any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Purchasers of a majority
of
the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith in writing
within such four Trading Day period.
(b)
(i)
Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective
amendments, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement continuously
effective as to the Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period; (ii)
cause the related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required
Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented or amended to be filed pursuant
to
Rule 424; (iii) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments
received from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement or any
amendment thereto and, as promptly as reasonably possible, upon request, provide
the Purchasers true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the
SEC relating to the Registration Statement; and (iv) comply in all material
respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in
order
to facilitate the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by the
Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the Purchasers thereof set forth in the
Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so
supplemented.
11
(c) Notify
the Purchasers of Registrable Securities to be sold as promptly as reasonably
possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than four Trading Days
prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice
in writing no later than one Trading Day following the day (i)(A) when a
Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement is proposed to be filed; (B) when the SEC notifies the
Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and
whenever the SEC comments in writing on such Registration Statement (the Company
shall provide true and complete copies thereof and all written responses thereto
to each of the Purchasers); and (C) with respect to the Registration Statement
or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of
any
request by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority for
amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or for
additional information; (iii) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement covering any or
all
of the Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that
purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect
to
the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any
of
the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation
or
threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the occurrence of
any
event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in the
Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made
in
the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that
requires any revisions to the Registration Statement, Prospectus or other
documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus,
as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material
fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they
were
made, not misleading.
(d) Use
its
commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain
the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from
qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment.
(e) Furnish
to each Purchaser, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each
Registration Statement and each amendment thereto, including financial
statements and schedules, all documents incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated therein by reference unless such documents are already publicly
available, and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Person (including
those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the
filing of such documents with the SEC.
(f) Promptly
deliver to each Purchaser, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus
or
Prospectuses (including each form of prospectus) and each amendment or
supplement thereto as such Persons may reasonably request.
(g) Prior
to
any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable
efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Purchasers in
connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such
registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and
sale
under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United
States and for listing on the TASE as any Purchaser requests in writing, to
keep
each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective
during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things
necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement; provided,
that
the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in
any
jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, (ii) subject the Company to
any
material tax or similar liability in any such jurisdiction where it is not
then
so subject or (iii) execute a general consent to service of process in any
jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
12
(h) Cooperate
with the Purchasers to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
certificates representing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee
pursuant to a Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to
the
extent permitted by the securities laws, of all restrictive legends, and to
enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered
in
such names as any such Purchasers may request.
(i) Upon
the
occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 6.2(c)(v), as promptly as
reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a
post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to
the
related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated
therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as
thereafter delivered, neither the Registration Statement nor such Prospectus
will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading.
(j) Comply
with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the ISA.
(k) The
Company may require each selling Purchaser to furnish to the Company a certified
statement as to the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such
Purchaser and, if requested by the SEC, the controlling person
thereof.
It
shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any
action pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities
of
any selling Purchaser that such Purchaser shall furnish to the Company such
information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the
intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities as shall be
required pursuant to the terms of the Selling Purchaser Questionnaire attached
hereto as ANNEX
C.
Each
Purchaser who desires that all or a portion of its Registrable Securities be

13
6.4 Indemnification
With Respect to the Registration Rights
(a) Indemnification
by the Company.
The
Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify
and
hold harmless each Purchaser, the officers, directors, agents and employees
of
each Purchaser from and against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable costs of
preparation and reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively,
“Losses”),
as
incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Prospectus
or
any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising
out
of or relating to any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus
or
form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made) not misleading, except to the extent, that (1) such untrue
statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Purchaser
furnished in writing to the Company by such Purchaser expressly for use therein,
or to the extent that such information relates to such Purchaser or such
Purchaser’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Purchaser expressly for
use
in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or
in
any amendment or supplement thereto (it being understood that the Purchaser
has
approved Annex B hereto for this purpose) or (2) in the case of an occurrence
of
an event of the type specified in Section 6.2(c)(ii)-(v),
the use
by such Purchaser of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company
has
notified such Purchaser in writing that the Prospectus is outdated. The Company
shall notify the Purchasers promptly of the institution, overt threat or
assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with
the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification
by Purchasers.
Each
Purchaser shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls
the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section
20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of
such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law,
from and against all Losses, as incurred, arising out of or based upon: (x)
such
Purchaser’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery or any other
requirements of the Securities Act or (y) any untrue statement of a material
fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of
prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or
based upon any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading to the extent that
such
untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in
writing by such Purchaser to the Company specifically for inclusion in such
Registration Statement or such Prospectus or to the extent that (1) such untrue
statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Purchaser
furnished in writing to the Company by such Purchaser expressly for use therein,
or to the extent that such information relates to such Purchaser or such
Purchaser’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was
reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Purchaser expressly for
use
in the Registration Statement (it being understood that the Purchaser has
approved Annex B hereto for this purpose), such Prospectus or such form of
Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or (2) in the case of
an
occurrence of an event of the type specified in Section 6.2(c)(ii)-(v), the
use
by such Purchaser of an outdated or defective Prospectus after the Company
has
notified such Purchaser in writing that the Prospectus is outdated or defective;
in each case up to the amount of net proceeds received by such Purchaser for
the
sale of Registrable Securities
14
(c) Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings.
If any
Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity
hereunder (an “Indemnified
Party”),
such
Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought
(the “Indemnifying
Party”)
in
writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including
the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party
(to
the extent permitted by law, one counsel shall be employed for all indemnified
parties) and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with
defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give
such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or
liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that such failure
shall have proximately prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
An
Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses
of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties
unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses; (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the
defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such
Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such
Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified
Party
and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised
by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel
were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which
case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing
that
it elects to employ one separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense
thereof and the reasonable expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense
of
the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any
settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without
the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of
any
pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless
such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party
from
all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
Proceeding.
All
fees
and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses
to
the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend
such
Proceeding in a manner consistent with this Section, but only to the extent
covered within the definition of “Losses” above) shall be paid to the
Indemnified Party, as incurred, within twenty Trading Days of written notice
thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately
determined that an Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder; provided,
that
the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Party to undertake to
reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially
determined that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification
hereunder).
(d) Contribution.
If a
claim for indemnification under Section 6.4(a) or 6.4(b) is unavailable to
an
Indemnified Party (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each
Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the
actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying
Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material
fact,
has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such
Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result
of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 6.4(c), any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or
expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent
such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the
indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in
accordance with its terms. The maximum contribution by a Purchaser shall be
an
amount equal to the net proceeds received by such Purchaser for the sale of
Registrable Securities.
15
The
parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 6.4(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.

ANNEX
B
Plan
of Distribution
The
selling shareholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and
successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their ordinary
shares on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares
are
traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated
prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following
methods when selling shares:
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits
purchasers;
block
trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent
but
may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the
transaction;
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its
account;
an
exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable
exchange;
privately
negotiated transactions;
short
sales
broker-dealers
may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such
shares at a stipulated price per share;
a
combination of any such methods of sale; and
any
other
method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The
selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities
Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers
engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to
participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from
the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the
purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The
selling shareholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed
what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The
selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest
in some or all of the ordinary shares owned by them and, if they default in
the
performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may
offer and sell the ordinary shares from time to time under this prospectus,
or
under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable
provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling
shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest
as selling shareholders under this prospectus.
23
The
selling shareholders also may transfer the ordinary shares in other
circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors
in
interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this
prospectus.
The
selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in
selling the ordinary shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event,
any
commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the ordinary shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The selling shareholders
have
informed us that they do not have any agreement or understanding, directly
or
indirectly, with any person to distribute the ordinary shares.
24
