Agreement, Tecnomatix Technologies Ltd., an Israeli corporation (the "Company"),
Buyer and Treasure Acquisition Sub Ltd., an Israeli corporation and a wholly
owned subsidiary of Buyer ("Merger Sub"), are entering into an Agreement of
Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged
with and into the Company, and the Company will become a wholly owned subsidiary
of Buyer, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Shareholder is (i) the record and
beneficial owner of, and has the sole right to vote and dispose of, 131,287
Ordinary Shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share, of the Company (the "Shares"),

and
WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger

the Shareholder is willing to agree, to the matters set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the agreements
set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Proxy.
1.1 Voting. Shareholder, on the date hereof, has validly executed and
delivered a proxy, in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT A (the "Proxy").
1.2 Fiduciary Responsibilities. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall limit
the rights and obligations of the Shareholder in his capacity as a director or
officer of the Company from taking any action in his capacity as a director or
officer of the Company, and no action taken by the Shareholder in any such
capacity shall be deemed to constitute a breach of any provision of this
Agreement.
2. Representations and Warranties of the Shareholder. The Shareholder
represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:
2.1 Binding Agreement. The Shareholder has the capacity to execute and
deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
The Shareholder has duly and validly executed and delivered this Agreement and
this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
2.2 No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor the performance of the
Shareholder's obligations hereunder will, (a) result in a violation or breach
of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, or
acceleration) under any contract, agreement, instrument, commitment, arrangement
or understanding with respect to the Shareholder's Shares or Options, (b)
require any material consent, authorization or approval of any person other than
a governmental entity, or (c) violate or conflict with any writ, injunction or
decree applicable to the Shareholder or the Shareholder's Shares or Options.
2.3 Ownership of Shares. The Shareholder is the record and "beneficial

amended, which meaning will apply for all purposes of this Agreement) of the
number of outstanding Shares set forth in the recitals hereto and is the owner
of the number of Options set forth in the recitals hereto. The Shareholder holds
power to vote the number of Shares set forth in the recitals hereto. As of the
date of this Agreement, the number of Shares and Options set forth in the
recitals hereto together with other Shares with respect to which the Shareholder
may be deemed to be a beneficial owner and are included in Schedules 13D filed
by the Shareholder and with respect to which the Shareholder disclaims

owned by the Shareholder.
3. Representations and Warranties of Buyer. Buyer represents and warrants
to the Shareholder as follows:
3.1 Binding Agreement. Buyer is a corporation duly incorporated, validly

consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the Merger Agreement by Buyer and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly and validly
authorized by the Board of Directors of Buyer, and no other corporate
proceedings on the part of Buyer are necessary to authorize the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Merger Agreement by Buyer and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Buyer has
duly and validly executed this Agreement and this Agreement constitutes a legal,
valid and binding obligation of Buyer, enforceable against Buyer in accordance
with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of
whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
3.2 No Conflict. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated hereby, nor the
compliance by Buyer with any of the provisions hereof will (a) conflict with or
result in a breach of any provision of its certificate of incorporation or
by-laws, (b) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without
due notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give rise to any right of
termination, cancellation, or acceleration) under any contract, agreement,
instrument, commitment, arrangement or understanding, (c) require any material
consent, authorization or approval of any person other than a governmental
entity, or (d) violate or conflict with any writ, injunction or decree
applicable to Buyer.

effect:
4.1 Certain Prohibited Transfers. The Shareholder agrees not to, except as
provided for in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement:
(a) sell, sell short, transfer (including gift), pledge, encumber,
assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other
arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge,
encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any Shares or Options or any
interest contained therein, except pursuant to existing obligations under
Options granted to third parties, which have previously been disclosed to Buyer;
(b) grant any proxies or power of attorney or enter into a voting
agreement or other arrangement with respect to any Shares or Options; or
(c) deposit any Shares or Options into a voting trust;
provided, however, that Shareholder may transfer Shares for estate planning
purposes or to a nationally (in Israel or the United States) or state recognized
charitable organization if, in each case, any such proposed transferee first
agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement with respect to
such Shares to be transferred to it, including by executing any documentation
requested by Buyer in connection therewith.
4.2 Additional Shares. Without limiting the provisions of the Merger
Agreement, in the event (i) of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization, reclassification, combination or exchange of shares of the
Company affecting the Shareholder's Shares or (ii) the Shareholder shall become
the beneficial owner or record owner of any additional shares of the Company,
including pursuant to the exercise of options, or other securities entitling the
holder thereof to vote or give consent with respect to the matters set forth in
Section 1 hereof, in each case, then the terms of this Agreement shall apply to
the shares or other securities of the Company held by the Shareholder
immediately following the effectiveness of the events described in clause (i),
or the Shareholder becoming the beneficial or record owner thereof, as described
in clause (ii), as though they were Shares of the Shareholder hereunder.

remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with
and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon
such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the
exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage
would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement were not performed
in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is
accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or
injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically

are entitled at law or in equity.

termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (ii) the
agreement of Buyer and the Shareholder to terminate this Agreement, and (iii)
