Each ordinary share, no par value, of the Company (the “Company Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares to be canceled in accordance with Section 3.01(a)(iii)) shall be converted into the right to receive from Parent, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, a number of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to (A) 3,519,105, divided by (B) the aggregate number of issued and outstanding Company Shares as of the Closing (the “Merger Consideration”), in each case without interest. Each Company Share to be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 3.01(a) shall no longer be outstanding and shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist, and the book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares”) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Company Share, shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Share other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 3.02, the Merger Consideration.

(ii)           Treatment of Company Options. As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and terminated for no consideration or payment. Within two (2) Business Days following the date hereof, the Company shall give each Person who holds vested Company Options notice that if such Person does not exercise their vested Company Options on or prior to the Closing Date, then their vested Company Options shall be canceled and terminated for no consideration or payment.

(iv)          Conversion of Merger Sub Share Capital.

Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing a fractional share of Parent Common Stock will be issued to any of the Company Shareholders or Company Warrantholder in connection with payment of the Merger Consideration, and to the extent a fractional share of Parent Common Stock is issuable as part of the Merger Consideration after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such Company Shareholder or Company Warrantholder, such fraction shall be rounded down to one whole share of Parent Common Stock.

(c)            Company Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board or a committee thereof shall adopt applicable resolutions to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.01.

Parent will endeavor to provide the TASE CH with at least four (4) Business Day’s prior notice of the Effective Time. Within approximately two Business Days following the receipt of such shares of Parent Common Stock, the TASE CH will credit the respective accounts of its members that hold Company Shares as of the Effective Time with whole shares of Parent Stock in a number equal to the Merger Consideration. Such members will, in turn, credit the respective accounts of their clients that beneficially own Company Shares as of the Effective Time with shares of Parent Stock in a number equal to the Merger Consideration and cancel the Book-Entry Shares in such accounts.

(b)            Transfers; No Further Ownership Rights. From and after the Effective Time, all issued and outstanding Company Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall be cancelled, retired and cease to exist, and each holder of a Book-Entry Share theretofore representing any Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable therefor, without interest, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02(a). The Merger Consideration issued to the TASE CH in accordance with the terms of this Article IIIArticle III shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares.

(a)            Each of Parent, the Company and the Surviving Company (or anyone on their behalf, including an exchange agent) (each, a “Payor”), shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person (each, a “Payee”) such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Ordinance, the Code or any provision of applicable Tax Law. Any amounts so withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made; provided that, with respect to the withholding of Israeli Tax, in the event any holder of record of Company Shares or Company Warrants provides the Payor with a Valid Tax Certificate issued by the Israeli Tax Authority (the “ITA”) regarding the withholding (or exemption from withholding) of Israeli Tax from the consideration payable in respect thereof in accordance with this Article III, 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 payable to such holder of record of Company Shares or Company Warrants, as applicable, shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Tax Certificate. To the extent amounts are so withheld, they shall be paid to the appropriate Governmental Authority prior to the last day on which such payment is required, and then such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. To the extent any Payor withholds any amounts, such Payor shall provide the affected Person, as soon as practicable (but no later than within thirty (30) Business Days), with sufficient evidence regarding such withholding.

(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Israeli Taxes, and in accordance with the undertaking provided by an exchange agent to Parent as required under Section 6.2.4.3 of the Income Tax Circular 19/2018 (Transaction for Sale of Rights in a Corporation that includes Consideration that will be transferred to the Seller at Future Dates), the consideration payable to each Payee of the Company shall be retained by the exchange agent for the benefit of each such Payee for a period of up to one hundred and eighty (180) days from Closing (the “Withholding Drop Date”) (during which time no Payor shall make any payments to any Payee of the Company or withhold any amounts for Israeli Taxes from the payments deliverable pursuant to this Agreement). If no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a Valid Tax Certificate is delivered to Payor, then, with respect to the affected Payee, the deduction and withholding of any Israeli Taxes shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Tax Certificate and the balance of the payment that is not withheld shall be paid to such shareholders concurrently therewith subject to any non-Israeli withholding which is applicable to the payment (if any). If any Payee of the Company (i) does not provide Payor with or is not the subject of a Valid Tax Certificate, by no later than five (5) Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request with Payor to release its portion of the consideration prior to the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Valid Tax Certificate at or before such time, then the amount to be withheld from such shareholder’s portion of the consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as reasonably determined by Parent in accordance with applicable Law.

(c)            For the avoidance of doubt, each Payor, as applicable, shall not be required to transfer any portion of the consideration payable under this Agreement to any payee, unless (i) a Valid Certificate providing for a full or partial exemption is delivered by such person and (ii) such person’s Company Share and/or Company Warrants to the extent necessary to satisfy the full amount due with regards to Israeli Taxes were sold and the Israeli Taxes were remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority.

(d)           With respect to holders of Company Options that are not Israeli residents for Israeli Tax purposes who were granted such Company Options in consideration solely for work or services performed outside of Israel and who were engaged by a non-Israeli Affiliate of the Company, a validly executed declaration regarding their non-Israeli residence and confirmation that they were granted such options in consideration solely for work or services performed outside of Israel for a non-Israeli Affiliate, in the form approved by the Parent, shall have been provided to the Parent. In case such valid declaration has been provided, such payments will not be subject to any withholding or deduction of Israeli Tax and will be made through the applicable company’s payroll system.

(e)            In the event that the parties hereto have decided to pursue a 104 Interim Ruling or 104 Tax Ruling, Parent shall engage an Israeli exchange agent to hold the applicable shares of Parent Common Stock. If the 104 Interim Ruling or the 104 Tax Ruling is received and delivered to the agent prior to the applicable withholding date (in any event no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, then the provisions of such ruling will apply and all applicable withholding procedures with respect to the rollover contribution will be made in accordance with the provisions of such ruling and Section 104(8) of the Ordinance.

(f)            In the event that the parties hereto have decided to pursue a 103 Tax Ruling and the 103 Tax Ruling is received in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, the Israeli withholding tax procedures shall be made according to the provisions set under such ruling.

3.04         Equitable Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of Parent shall occur as a result of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock with a record date during such period, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as the Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to provide Parent, Merger Sub and the holders of Company Shares the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such action.

3.05         Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If at any time after the Effective Time any further action is reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Company with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company or Merger Sub, the officers and board of directors of the Surviving Company will be fully authorized in the name of the Company or Merger Sub, as the case may be, to take and shall take any and all such lawful and necessary action.

No Company Benefit Plan subject to ERISA holds stock issued by the Company or any of its current Company ERISA Affiliates as a plan asset.

(m)            No Company Benefit Plan or Company Employee Agreement provides (except at no cost to the Company Entities), or reflects or represents any liability of any of the Company Entities to provide, post-termination or retiree life insurance, post-termination or retiree health benefits or other post-termination or retiree employee welfare benefits to any Person for any reason, except as may be required by COBRA or other applicable laws at the recipient’s sole premium expense. No Company Benefit Plan provides or reflects or represents any liability of any of the Company Entities to provide, life insurance, health benefits or other welfare benefits to any member of the Company Board for any reason, unless such director is also an employee of a Company Entity.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.05(a), at any time prior to obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval (and in no event after receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval), if the Company receives a bona fide Company Acquisition Proposal from a third party made after the date of this Agreement that did not result from a breach of Section 6.05(a), then the Company may (i) contact the Person or any of its Representatives who has made such Company Acquisition Proposal solely to clarify the terms of such Company Acquisition Proposal so that the Company Board (or any committee thereof) may inform itself about such Company Acquisition Proposal, (ii) afford access to or furnish information concerning itself and its business, properties or assets or provide access to a data room (virtual or actual) to such Person or any of its Representatives pursuant to a confidentiality agreement (which the Company and its Representatives shall be permitted to negotiate) with terms that are not less favorable to the Company than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and (iii) negotiate and participate in discussions with such Person or any of its Representatives concerning such Company Acquisition Proposal, in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Company Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to constitute or result in a Company Superior Proposal. The Company shall (A) promptly (and in any case within twenty-four (24) hours) provide Parent notice (1) of the receipt by the Company (or any of its Representatives) of any Company Acquisition Proposal, which notice shall include a complete, unredacted copy of all written proposals, draft agreements relating to, and/or other written materials that describe any such Company Acquisition Proposal, and (2) of any inquiries, proposals or offers by third parties received by, any requests by third parties for nonpublic information from, or any discussions or negotiations initiated or continued (or sought to be initiated or continued) by third parties with, the Company or any of its Representatives concerning a Company Acquisition Proposal, and disclose the material terms of such offer, proposal or request, (B) make available to Parent, substantially concurrently with the time it is provided or made available to such party, all information, including copies of all material written materials, made available by the Company to such party but not previously made available to Parent (and written summaries of any such information provided orally) and (C) keep Parent informed on a reasonably prompt basis (and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours) of the status and material events (including any amendments and proposed amendments to any terms) regarding any such Company Acquisition Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request, providing to Parent unredacted copies of any additional or revised written proposals or draft agreements relating to such Company Acquisition Proposal or other inquiry, offer, proposal or request. The Company agrees that it and its Subsidiaries will not enter into any agreement with any Person that prohibits the Company from providing any information to Parent in accordance with this Section 6.05.

(c) Except as permitted by this Section 6.05, the Company Board shall not (i) withdraw, qualify or modify, or publicly propose to withdraw, qualify or modify, the Company Board Recommendation, in each case in a manner adverse to Parent or Merger Sub, (ii) fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Shareholder Meeting Notice, (iii) publicly recommend or declare advisable any Company Acquisition Proposal, or (iv) adopt, authorize or approve any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other similar agreement providing for any Company Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement permitted by Section 6.05(b)) (any action described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) of this sentence being referred to as a “Company Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval (and in no event after receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval), the Company Board receives a Company Acquisition Proposal that did not result from a breach of Section 6.05(a) and that the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, constitutes a Company Superior Proposal, the Company Board may (i) effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or (ii) cause the Company to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(ii) in order to enter into a definitive agreement providing for such Company Superior Proposal if, in each case, (A) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Israeli Law, (B) the Company has notified Parent in writing at least four (4) Business Days before taking such action that it intends to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change pursuant to this Section 6.05(d) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(ii), (C) the Company’s notice delivered pursuant to the foregoing clause (B) attaches the proposed definitive agreement or the most current version of any proposed agreement between the Company and the Person making such Company Superior Proposal, if any, or a reasonably detailed summary of all material terms of such Company Superior Proposal and the identity of the offeror, if no such agreement exists, (D) for a period of four (4) Business Days following the notice delivered pursuant to clause (B) of this Section 6.05(d), the Company and the Company’s relevant Representatives shall have discussed and negotiated in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) with Parent and Xxxxxx’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement in response to such Company Superior Proposal, and (E) no earlier than the end of such four-(4)-Business Day period, the Company Board shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, and after taking into account any proposal by Parent to amend or modify the terms of this Agreement irrevocably offered by Parent in writing, that the Company Acquisition Proposal that is the subject of the notice described in clause (B) above still constitutes a Company Superior Proposal (it being understood and agreed that in the event of any amendment to the financial terms or other material terms of any such Company Superior Proposal, a new written notification from the Company consistent with that described clause (B) of this Section 6.05(d) shall be required and a new notice period under clause (B) of this Section 6.05(d) shall commence, during which notice period the Company shall be required to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.05(d) anew, except that such new notice period shall be for two (2) Business Days (as opposed to four (4) Business Days)).

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board from (i) disclosing to its shareholders a position or opinion contemplated by Section 329 of the ICL or issuing a “stop, look and listen” or similar statement to its shareholders or (ii) making any disclosure to its shareholders if the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure of the Company Board to make such disclosure would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under Israeli Law or would reasonably likely conflict with or violate any applicable Law or the rules or requirements of the TASE; provided, however, that (A) in no event shall this Section 6.05(e) affect or modify the definition of Company Adverse Recommendation Change and (B) any such disclosure (other than issuance by the Company of a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or by the ICL) that addresses or relates to the approval, recommendation or declaration of advisability by the Company Board with respect to this Agreement or a Company Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change unless the Company Board in connection with such communication publicly states that its recommendation with respect to this Agreement has not changed.

(f) References in this Section 6.05 to the Company Board shall include any committee thereof.

6.06 Stock Exchange Listing. Promptly following the date of this Agreement, Parent shall take those actions reasonably necessary in order to list the shares of Parent Common Stock on the TASE immediately prior to the Effective Time, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, prior to the Closing Date, the agreement of the TASE to list such shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger on the TASE.

6.07 No Parent Common Stock Transactions. From and after the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, no Company Entity shall engage in any transactions involving the securities of Parent without the prior written consent of Parent. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to require each Company Shareholder and Interested Party of the Company to comply with the foregoing sentence.

6.08 Public Announcements. Except as otherwise provided herein, the timing and content of all public announcements regarding any aspect of this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions, whether to the financial community, Governmental Authorities, the general public or otherwise shall be mutually agreed upon in advance by the Company and Parent; provided, however, that each party hereto may make any such announcement which, based on advice of counsel, is required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to consult with the other parties hereto prior to any such public announcement, and provide each other the reasonable opportunity (and, to the extent reasonably practicable, at least twenty-four (24) hours) to review and comment upon, any such public announcement primarily relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, and shall in any event promptly provide the other parties hereto with copies of any such public announcement. This Section 6.08 shall not apply to communications by any party hereto to its directors, officers, employees, counsel, accountants or other advisors or, if the substance of such communication would not reasonably be expected to require Parent to file a Form 8-K and/or make a disclosure under Regulation FD promulgated under the Exchange Act, to employees.

6.09 Registration Statement.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, but, to the extent any financial statements of the Company are required to be included therein, no earlier than the date that the Company has provided such requisite financial statements in a form necessary to be included therein, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC, with the cooperation of the Company and its representatives, a registration statement on Form S-4 (as such filing is amended or supplemented, the “Registration Statement”), for the purposes of registering under the Securities Act the Merger Consideration (the “Registration Shares”). Each of Parent and the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC, to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing and to keep the Registration Statement effective and updated as long as is necessary to consummate the Transactions. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall prepare and file any other filings required under the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or any other Laws relating to the Transactions (collectively, the “Other Filings”). Parent shall notify the Company promptly upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff or any other Governmental Authority for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement. As promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, unless otherwise prohibited by law, Parent shall provide the Company and its counsel with copies of all written correspondence between Parent or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC, or its staff or other government officials, on the other hand, with respect to the Registration Statement or any Other Filing. Parent shall permit the Company and its counsel to review the Registration Statement, and any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto, as well as any Other Filings, and shall consult with the Company and its advisors concerning any comments from the SEC with respect thereto; provided, further that Parent shall reasonably consider and take into account the reasonable suggestions, comments or opinions of the Company and its advisors, and shall not file the Registration Statement, or any exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto or any response letters to any comments from the SEC without the prior written consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that Parent shall be permitted to make such filing or response in the absence of such consent if the basis of the Company’s failure to consent is the Company’s unwillingness to permit the inclusion in such filing or response of information that, based on the advice of outside counsel to Parent, is required by the SEC and United States securities Laws to be included therein. Whenever any event occurs which would reasonably be expected to result in the Registration Statement containing any untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, Parent or the Company, as the case may be, shall promptly inform the other party hereto of such occurrence and cooperate in filing with the SEC or its staff or any other government officials an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent or prohibit Parent from making any filings with or submissions to the SEC which the Parent reasonably believes to be required by applicable law, rule or regulation.

(b) The Company shall provide Parent, as promptly as reasonably practicable, all of the information concerning the Company and its business reasonably requested by Parent or otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to be included in the Registration Statement and the Other Filings or necessary for the information concerning the Company in the Registration Statement and the Other Filings to comply with all applicable provisions of and rules under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Delaware General Corporation Law, including without limitation, to the extent required to be included therein, any audited or unaudited financial statements of any Company Entity required to be included in the Registration Statement by the rules and regulations of the SEC in the form contemplated by the rules and regulations of the SEC. To the extent pro forma financial statements are required to be included in the Registration Statement and Other Filings, the Company shall cooperate with Parent in connection with the preparation of such pro forma financial statements. To the extent the Company’s audited financial statements are required to be included in the Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (including delivery of any required representation letters) to cause the auditor of such financial statements to provide all “consents” required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to be included in the Registration Statement and any Other Filings. The Company agrees to furnish to Parent all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, and its and their respective officers, directors, managers, shareholders, and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Registration Statement, the Other Filings or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of the Company to any regulatory authority (including Nasdaq) in connection with the Transactions, including the Transaction Form 8-K to be filed by Parent after the Closing. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Company’s audited financial statements are required to be included in the Registration Statement or any Other Filings, the Company shall provide such audited financial statements as promptly as practicable, together with the auditor’s report thereon, which shall have been audited by the Company’s auditors in accordance with applicable accounting guidelines and shall comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act, Exchange Act and Regulation S-X and shall be in an appropriate form for inclusion in the Registration Statement, (ii) to the extent the Company’s unaudited financial statements are required to be included in the Registration Statement or any Other Filings, the Company shall provide such unaudited financial statements as promptly as practicable, which shall have been reviewed by the Company’s auditors in accordance with applicable accounting guidelines and shall comply in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act, Exchange Act and Regulation S-X and shall be in an appropriate form for inclusion in the Registration Statement and (iii) to the extent the Company’s audited or unaudited financial statements which are required to be included in the Registration Statement go “stale” in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Company shall provide updated audited or unaudited financial statements, as applicable, in accordance with the requirements of (i) and (ii) above. The information relating to the Company furnished by or on behalf of the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement will not, as of the time it is furnished to Parent, and as of the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, contain any statement which, at such time and in light of the circumstances under which it is made, is false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not false or misleading. Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Registration Statement does not, as of the date of effectiveness of the Registration Statement, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that Parent shall not be responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any information relating to the Company or any other information furnished in writing by the Company for inclusion in the Registration Statement).

(c) The Company shall cooperate with Parent and provide all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, and its and their respective officers, directors, managers, shareholders, and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested by Parent or otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the SEC (including financial information and financial statements) in connection with any registration statement filed by the Company with the SEC following the date of this Agreement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (including delivery of any required representation letters) to cause the auditor of the Company Financial Statements to provide all “consents” required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to be included in such registration statement.

(d) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company (with Parent’s reasonable cooperation) shall prepare the Shareholder Meeting Notice. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Shareholder Meeting Notice to comply with applicable Law. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Shareholder Meeting Notice will be made by the Company without providing the Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (which comments shall be considered in good faith). The Company shall notify the Parent promptly of the receipt of any comments from the ISA or TASE or the staff of the ISA or TASE and of any request by the ISA or TASE or the staff of the ISA or TASE for amendments or supplements to the Shareholder Meeting Notice or for additional information and shall supply the Parent with copies of all correspondence between the Company and any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the ISA or TASE or their respective staff, as applicable, on the other hand, (or detailed summaries of oral communications, as the case may be) with respect to the Shareholder Meeting Notice or the Merger or the Company Shareholder Meeting.

(e) Subject to the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.01, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event within two (2) Business Days, following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, publish the Shareholder Meeting Notice and set a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company Shareholders (together with any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Company Shareholder Meeting”) for the purpose of seeking the Company Shareholder Approval, and shall submit such proposal to such holders at the Company Shareholder Meeting and shall not submit any other proposal to such holders in connection with the Company Shareholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent, other than a customary proposal regarding adjournment of the Company Shareholder Meeting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not adjourn or postpone the Company Shareholder Meeting without Parent’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, without Parent’s prior written consent, the Company may adjourn or postpone the Company Shareholder Meeting (A) after consultation with Parent, to the extent necessary to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Shareholder Meeting Notice is published within a reasonable amount of time in advance of the Company Shareholder Meeting or (B) to a date that is in the aggregate not more than thirty (30) days following the originally scheduled date (or the date rescheduled pursuant to clause (A) hereof) if there are not sufficient affirmative votes in person or by proxy at such meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Shareholder Meeting or to obtain the Company Shareholder Approval, to allow reasonable additional time for solicitation of votes or proxies for purposes of obtaining a quorum or the Company Shareholder Approval. If the Company Board has not made a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in accordance with Section 6.05, the Company shall, through the Company Board, make the Company Board Recommendation, include such Company Board Recommendation in the Shareholder Meeting Notice, and use its reasonable best efforts to (1) solicit from its shareholders votes or proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement and the Merger in accordance with Israeli Law and (2) otherwise seek to obtain the Company Shareholder Approval at the Company Shareholder Meeting. Notwithstanding any Company Adverse Recommendation Change, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.01, the obligations of the parties hereunder shall continue in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.01, neither the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Company Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Company Superior Proposal) nor the making of any Company Adverse Recommendation Change shall obviate or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company to set a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders in accordance with this Section 6.09(e).

6.10 Form 8-K Filings. Parent and Company shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the preparation of, and as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, Parent shall file with the SEC, a Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act to report the execution of this Agreement; provided that Parent shall accept reasonable comments of the Company to such Form 8-K prior to filing. Parent and Company shall cooperate in good faith with respect to the preparation of, and prior to the Closing, Parent shall prepare and use reasonable best efforts to provide to the Company for review at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing, a draft Form 8-K announcing the Closing, together with, or incorporating by reference, to the extent required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, the required pro forma financial statements and the historical financial statements prepared by the Company and its accountant (“Transaction Form 8-K”). Prior to Closing, Parent and Company shall prepare the press release announcing the consummation of the Transactions (“Press Release”). Promptly following the Closing, Parent shall file the Transaction Form 8-K with the SEC and distribute the Press Release; provided that Parent shall accept reasonable comments of Company to the Transaction Form 8-K prior to filing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent or prohibit Parent from making any filings with or submissions to the SEC which the Parent reasonably believes to be required by applicable Law, rule or regulation.

6.11 Director and Officer Indemnification.

(a) For a period of seven (7) years following the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall not take any action to waive, eliminate or amend in an adverse manner to Company Indemnified Persons any rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses, and limitation of liability in favor of any individual who, at or prior to the Effective Time, was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company (collectively, with such individual’s heirs, executors or administrators, the “Company Indemnified Persons”) as provided in the Company Organizational Documents or any indemnification Contract between such Person and the Company (in each case, as in effect on, and, in the case of any indemnification Contracts, to the extent made available to Parent prior to, the date of this Agreement).

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, in consultation with Parent, obtain a “tail” officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy with a claims period of seven (7) years from the Effective Time with at least the same coverage and amount and containing terms and conditions that are, in the aggregate, not less advantageous to the directors and officers of the Company as the Company’s existing policies with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in connection with the Transactions) (the “Company D&O Tail Policy”). In no event shall Parent or the Surviving Company be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 310% of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Company for such insurance in effect at the Closing.

If the Company is required to terminate any Company 401(k) Plan, then the Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Closing Date written evidence of the adoption by the Company Board of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which shall be subject to the prior review and comment of Parent, which comments shall be considered in good faith), effective no later than the day prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall also consider in good faith taking such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company 401(k) Plan as Parent may reasonably request.

Prior to the Effective Time, none of the Company Entities shall communicate with any employees of any Company Entity or Parent or any of their respective Affiliates regarding post-Closing employment matters, including post-Closing employee benefits and compensation or other compensation or benefits matters related to or impacted by the Merger (whether alone or in combination with additional events), without the prior written approval of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Prior to the Effective Time, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall communicate with any employees of any Company Entity or Parent or any of their respective Affiliates regarding post-Closing employment matters, including post-Closing employee benefits and compensation or other compensation or benefits matters related to or impacted by the Merger (whether alone or in combination with additional events), without the prior written approval of the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

6.16 Tax Matters.

(a) 103 Tax Ruling. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall instruct its legal counsels, advisors and accountants to prepare and file with the ITA, in full coordination with Parent and Parent’s Israeli counsel and tax advisors, an application for a tax ruling confirming the Merger under this Agreement, for Israeli tax purposes, as a tax free merger pursuant to Section 103(20) of the Ordinance, subject to statutory or customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling to be included within the ruling (the “103 Tax Ruling”).

Israel Standard Time on September 30, 2023 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(b)(i)shall not be available to any party whose material breach of this Agreement has been the proximate cause of the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Outside Date;

8.02 Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given by the terminating party to the other parties, specifying the provisions hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void, and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto; provided that no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any liability or damages resulting from any Willful Breach of its obligations under this Agreement prior to such termination or fraud, in which case the aggrieved party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at law or in equity; and provided, further, that the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 6.08, this Section 8.02, Section 8.03, Section 8.04 and Article IX shall survive any termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Willful Breach” shall mean with respect to any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, an intentional action or omission by a party hereto that both (a) causes such party to be in material breach of such covenant or agreement and (b) such party knows as the time of such intentional action or omission that such action or omission is, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a material breach of such covenant or agreement.

(a) Any provision in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if:

(i) the Company shall have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.01(d)(ii);

(ii) Parent shall have terminated this Agreement pursuant to Sections 8.01(c)(ii) or 8.01(c)(iii); or

(iii) (A) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(iii), a Company Acquisition Proposal is publicly proposed or publicly disclosed after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Company Shareholder Meeting, or in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i), a Company Acquisition Proposal has become known to, disclosed or communicated to the Company Board or the Company’s senior management prior to the Outside Date, or in the case of a termination pursuant to or Section 8.01(c)(i), a Company Acquisition Proposal has become known to, disclosed or communicated to the Company Board or the Company’s senior management prior to the date of the breach giving rise to the termination event pursuant to Section 8.01(c)(i), (B) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.01(b)(i), Section 8.01(b)(iii) or Section 8.01(c)(i) and (C) concurrently with, or within twelve (12) months after, such termination, the Company shall have entered into a definitive agreement for a transaction that constitutes a Company Acquisition Proposal or completed a transaction that constitutes a Company Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that the transaction for a Company Acquisition Proposal under clause (C) need not be with the same counterparty that made the Company Acquisition Proposal under clause (A);

then the Company shall pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent, the Termination Fee, such payment to be made concurrently with, and as a condition to the effectiveness of, termination in the case of clause (i) above, within three (3) Business Days after such termination in the case of clause (ii) above, or within three (3) Business Days after the last to occur of the events set forth in clause (iii) above; it being understood that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, except in the case of fraud or Willful Breach of any covenant or agreement of this Agreement, if Parent receives payment from the Company of the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.03, such payment (together with amounts owed, if any, pursuant to Section 8.03(c)) shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of Parent and Merger Sub against the Company Related Parties for all losses and damages suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(c) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 8.03 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) the Termination Fee does not constitute a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Sub for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Accordingly, if the Company fails to timely pay the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 8.03 and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the payment of the Termination Fee set forth in this Section 8.03, the Company shall pay Parent its costs and expenses in connection with such suit (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), together with interest on such amount at an annual rate equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable Law.

8.04 Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing Date, the parties hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.
