For the avoidance of doubt, no Shareholder, or any officer, director, shareholder or employee of such Shareholder, makes any representation or warranty as to the fitness or competence of the designee to the Board by virtue of its execution of this Agreement or by voting in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Each Shareholder (and the directors designated by it) shall be solely responsible for the compliance of its designee(s) with the requirements of applicable law relating to director's competency (including, without limitations, the provisions of Sections 226, 227 and 228 of the Companies Law).

It is hereby clarified that any permitted sale of Company's Shares according to this section 5.2 shall not be subject to the other Party's rights of First Offer and/or Tag Along under section 7 below.
6. Discussions Prior to Meetings.
Subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Shareholders shall meet regularly and in any event prior to each meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company and General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company and will review, discuss and attempt to reach a unified position with respect to principal issues on the agenda of each such meeting such as approval of TAT's annual budget, any merger or acquisition, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, granting of stock options, creation of any debt (other than in the ordinary course of business), distribution of dividends, etc.
7. Right of First Offer; Tag-Along
(a) Following the termination of the Lock-Up Period under Section 5.2 above, if a Party (the "Selling Party") wishes to sell or otherwise transfer Ordinary Shares of the Company (the "Offered Shares"), it shall be required to first make an offer to the other Party (the "Offeree"), as set forth below.
(b) The Selling Party shall send the Offeree a written offer (the "Offer") in which the Selling Party shall specify the following information: (i) the number of Offered Shares that the Selling Party proposes to sell
or transfer; (ii) a representation and warranty that the Offered Shares shall be, at the time of their transfer, free and clear of Encumbrances; (iii) the minimum price in United States dollars (the "Minimum Price") that the Selling Party is prepared to receive for the Offered Shares in an immediate cash payment transaction; and (iv) whether the Selling Party intends to sell the Offered Shares by means of a "market trade". The Offer shall constitute an irrevocable offer made by the Selling Party to sell to the Offeree the Offered Shares all upon the terms specified in the Offer (including the Minimum Price and the Payment Term Threshold) or, in the case TATOP is the Offeree, to have such Offeree participate in such sale, all upon the terms applicable to the Selling Party pursuant to the provisions of sub-section (e) below.
(c) The Offeree may notify the Selling Party in writing (the "Response") within 14 days of receipt of the Offer that it wishes to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Offered Shares upon the terms specified in the Offer. If the Offeree does not deliver the Response the Offeree shall be deemed to have notified the Selling Party that it does not wish to buy the Offered Shares.
(d) If the Offeree delivers a Response in accordance with the above provisions, the Offered Shares shall become the property of the Offeree and shall be delivered to the Offeree against payment of the consideration as specified in the Offer. . The closing of such sale shall take place by no later than 10 business days following the delivery of the Response. If the Offeree does not deliver such Response, then the Selling Party may sell the Offered Shares to any third party, provided that such sale is consummated (i) within a 45 day period, (ii) at a price that is not lower than that the Minimum Price, and (iii) if the Offer provides that the sale shall have to be effected by means of "market trade", the Offered Shares will be sold only via market trade.
(e) If TATOP is the Offeree, and it does not deliver a Response, but wishes to sell its Ordinary Shares together with the Offered Shares intended to be sold by T.A.T. Industries, TATOP shall, during such 14 day period, have the right to notify T.A.T. Industries that it is exercising its Tag Along Right pursuant to this sub-section (e) (the "Tag Along Notice"). Following the Tag Along Notice, TATOP shall add to the Ordinary Shares to be sold by T.A.T. Industries to a purchaser (the "Proposed Purchaser") that number of Ordinary Shares which bears the same ratio to the total number of Ordinary Shares held by TATOP, as the ratio that the number of Offered Shares bears to T.A.T. Industries' total number of Ordinary Shares on the date that the Offer Notice is delivered, and upon the same terms and conditions under which T.A.T. Industries' Ordinary Shares shall be sold. In the event that TATOP exercises its rights hereunder, T.A.T. Industries must either (i) add such Ordinary Shares to the Offered Shares being sold by it or (ii) at its sole discretion, reduce the number of Ordinary Shares that it proposes to sell, in which case, T.A.T. Industries and TATOP will contribute the identical portion of Ordinary Shares relative to their total shareholdings in the Company on the date the Offer Notice was delivered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, without derogating from TAT Industries' Right of First Offer, during the first five years following the Closing, TATOP shall give TAT Industries the Tag-Along right described above in the event that TATOP sells the Offered Shares, at a price per share that is greater than US$23.00 (which price shall be subject to adjustment for share splits, issuance of bonus shares or combinations of shares).
(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 7 shall not apply (i) to any transfer of Ordinary Shares by a Shareholder to its Permitted Transferees (as defined below), provided that any such Permitted Transferee shall acknowledge in writing that it agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, as if it were an original party to this part of the Agreement and, provided, further, that FIMI 2001 Ltd. shall remain the exclusive representative with respect to any Permitted Transferee of TATOP or (ii) to the transfer of Ordinary Shares by a banking institution or holders of debentures that have been issued by a Shareholder to the public or to "institutional bodies" following the realization of a pledge, if any, over Ordinary Shares held by the Shareholder.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Permitted Transferee" shall mean:
(a) with respect to TATOP, (i) its partners, (ii) the shareholders or partners (as applicable) of such partners, (iii) any entity controlled by, controlling, or under common control with TATOP or FIMI 2001 Ltd., or (iv)
a banking institution for the benefit of which a pledge was created over the Ordinary Shares of the Company held by TATOP; provided, that in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii) above, such transferees are solely and irrevocably represented by FIMI 2001 Ltd. pursuant to an irrevocable power of attorney for all purposes of this Agreement; and
(b) with respect to TAT Industries, (i) to any of Ostersetzer or Zeelim, their holding companies or their immediate family members (i.e. spouses, children and the children's spouses), or (ii) an entity controlled by, or under common control with or controlling TAT Industries; or (iii) to TAT Industries' shareholders, if TAT Industries resolves to distribute its entire holdings in the Company to its shareholders, provided that the controlling holders of TAT Industries' shares shall acknowledge in writing that they agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement; or (iv) a banking institution or TAT Industries' security holders (including as a result of a public offering) for the benefit of which a pledge was created over the Ordinary Shares of the Company held by TAT Industries.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, except in connection with a transfer to a Permitted Transferee, a transaction or a series of transactions involving the sale of interests in TATOP and/or shares in TA-TEK following which the Fund beneficially holds less than 50% of the aggregate interests in both TATOP and TA-TEK, will be deemed as an offer of all the Ordinary Shares held by TATOP at a Minimum Price equal to the average closing price in NASDAQ during the last 30 trading days prior to the above change of holding.
(d) Except with respect to the transfer of Ordinary Shares to Permitted Transferees, and without derogating from the provisions and rights contained herein, the Shareholders' rights under this Agreement may not be assigned to transferees without the consent of the other Shareholder.
8. Drag Along.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event that a Shareholder (the "Selling Shareholder") secures a bona fide offer (the "Acquisition Offer") from any third party (the "Drag-Along Acquirer ") to purchase all of the Ordinary Shares held by such Selling Shareholder (and it is hereby clarified that for purposes of this Section 8 it shall also include the holdings of its Permitted Transferees) for immediately available funds, at a price per Ordinary Share of at least US$ 23.00 (the "Drag Along PPS"), and the Drag-Along Acquirer conditions the Acquisition Offer on the acquisition of all the Ordinary Shares held at such time by the other Shareholder (the "Drag-Along Party" which, for purposes of this Section 8 shall include also the holdings of its Permitted Transferees), the Selling Shareholder shall provide the Drag Along Party with written notice together with a copy of the Acquisition Offer (the "Drag Along Notice") and the Drag Along Party will be required to either (i) sell all of the Ordinary Shares then held by it to the Drag-Along Acquirer, at the same price and upon the same terms and conditions as those to which the sale by the Selling Shareholder is subject under the Acquisition Offer, provided that the sale of all the Ordinary Shares of the Selling Shareholder and the Drag Along Party shall be consummated by no later than 90 days following the receipt of the Drag Along Notice and, provided, further, that the Drag Along Party shall not be required to make any representations or warranties, except for customary representations regarding authorization and good and marketable title to the shares being sold; or (ii) provide the Selling Shareholder with written notice (the "Notice Extension") informing the Selling Shareholder that it wishes to receive an Extension (the "Extension"). In the event that an Extension Notice is delivered to the Selling Shareholder, the Drag Along Shareholder shall be required, by no later than three months following the receipt of the Drag Along Notice, to arrange for the sale of all of the Ordinary Shares held by the Selling Shareholder at a price per share that is not lower than the Drag Along PPS, and under terms and conditions that are no less favorable to the Selling Shareholder than those set forth in the Acquisition Offer or (b) acquire, upon the termination of such three month period, the Ordinary Shares then held by the Selling Shareholder, at a price per share equal to the Drag Along PPS and upon terms and conditions no less favorable than those set forth in the Acquisition Offer.
The Drag-Along PPS shall be adjusted for share splits, issuance of bonus shares, or combinations of shares. No other adjustments (for dividend distributions, market conditions or for any other reason) shall be made to the Drag Along PPS.
9. Purchase of Additional Company Shares by TATOP
TATOP hereby undertakes that without obtaining TAT Industries' prior written consent, it and the Affiliated Entities (as defined below) shall not, at any time during the term of this Agreement, purchase additional shares of the Company (including by exercise of the Warrant under the Warrant Agreement) such that its total holdings by TATOP and the Affiliated Entities would exceed 35% of TAT's issued and outstanding share capital. This undertaking refers to holdings by the following entities (the "Affiliated Entities"): TA-TEK, the Fund (including, for the purpose of clarity, the Delaware Fund and the Israeli Fund), FIMI 2001 Ltd., the Managing General Partner of the Fund and any non public entity controlled by each of them. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms "holding" and "control" shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Section 1 of the Companies Law (which refers to the definition set forth in the Israeli Securities Law - 1968).
10. Dividend Distribution.
Subject to applicable law, during the term of this Agreement, the Shareholders agree to direct the Directors designated by them (to the extent permitted by applicable law) to cause the Company to distribute annual dividends in an aggregate amount of at least 40% of the Company's profits (as determined under Section 302(b) of the Companies Law) for each relevant year. The Shareholders' internal agreement under this Section 10 shall not be deemed to constitute a dividend policy of the Company. Furthermore, the Shareholders may, by mutual consent, modify the foregoing agreement between the Parties regarding dividend distributions without being obligated to substantiate or explain any such modification to any third party.
11. The Investment Agreements.
TAT Industries hereby agrees to vote all of the Ordinary Shares owned or controlled by it, whether beneficially or otherwise held by it, in order to cause the Company to adopt the Investment Agreements (excluding this Agreement, which requires the approval of the General Meeting of TAT Industries' Shareholders under the Israeli law).
