then the amount of declared Dividends or any assets of the Company available for distribution in connection with, or the consideration received in, such Liquidation Event (hereinafter referred to as “Distribution Assets”) shall be distributed pursuant to the following order of preference: |
(b) | The holders of the Series A1 Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of all other equity securities of the Company by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per each Series A1 Preferred Share equal to: (i) Two time (2X) of the applicable Original Issue Price for each such share, less (ii) the aggregate amount previously paid in respect of such share pursuant to this Article 8(b), if any (the “A1 Preference Amount”). In the event that the Distribution Assets are not sufficient for a full payment of the A1 Preference Amount to the holders of the Series A1 Preferred Shares pursuant to this subarticle (b), such Distribution Assets as are available for distribution, shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A1 Preferred Shares pro-rata in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive had the A1 Preference Amount been paid in full. |
- 5 -
(c) | Following the payment in full of the A1 Preference Amount, the holders of the Ordinary Preferred A Shares and the holders of the Ordinary Preferred B Shares shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of all other equity securities of the Company by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per each Ordinary Preferred A Share and per each Ordinary Preferred B Share equal to: (i) the applicable Original Issue Price of such share, less (ii) the aggregate amount previously paid in respect of such share pursuant to this Article 8(c), if any (the “Ordinary A/BPreference Amount”). In the event that the Distribution Assets are not sufficient for a full payment of the Ordinary A/B Preference Amount to the holders of the Ordinary Preferred A Shares and the holders of the Ordinary Preferred B Shares pursuant to this subarticle (c), such Distribution Assets as are available for distribution, shall be distributed among the holders of the Ordinary Preferred A Shares and the holders of the Ordinary Preferred B Shares pro-rata in proportion to the preferential amount each such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive in respect of such shares had the Ordinary A/B Preference Amount been paid in full. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, any change or amendment to the rights attached to the Ordinary Preferred B Shares under this subarticle 8(c) shall require the approval of holders of at least 75% (Seventy Five Percent) of the Ordinary Preferred B Shares, provided that the authorization or issuance of a new class of shares with preferential rights (including preferential rights of dividend and liquidation preferences) or issuance of additional shares of an existing class shall not be deemed a change or amendment in the rights of the Ordinary Preferred B Shares under this subarticle 8(c). |
(d) | Following the payment in full of the A1 Preference Amount and the Ordinary A/B Preference Amount, the holders of the Preferred Shares and the holders of the Ordinary Shares shall receive any remaining Distribution Assets available for distribution pro rata based on the number of Ordinary Shares (on an as converted basis) held by any such holder. |
(e) | In the event of a Merger or an Acquisition in which the shareholders (and not the Company) are the intended recipients of the proceeds resulting therefrom (such as with a sale of shares transaction), no transfer of securities in accordance thereto will be considered valid and the Company will not register or otherwise give effect to such transfer, unless the provisions of the distribution preferences under this Article 8 shall apply. |
(f) | Whenever the Distribution Assets are in securities or property other than cash, the value of such assets shall be the fair market value of such securities or other property as shall be determined by the Board, or by the liquidator in case of winding up. Such proceeds shall be made payable in US dollars unless any holder of fully paid share elects to receive such distributions in NIS. The NIS equivalent of the dollar value of any distribution shall be determined in accordance with the Representative Rate last published by the Bank of Israel prior to the date of the making of the distribution. |
- 6 -
9. | CONVERSION OF PREFERRED SHARES |
The holders of the Preferred Shares shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”): |
(a) | Right to Convert. |
(1) | Subject to Article 9(c), each fully paid Preferred Share shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such Preferred Share at the Office or any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares, into one fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Share nominal value NIS 1 and the Company shall, at such time, issue to the holders thereof, for no additional charge (a portion of the premium paid for such Preferred Shares being attributed as payment on account of the nominal value of such additional Ordinary Shares – in the event that the then applicable law requires that shares are issued for no less than their nominal value and to the extent no other source available pursuant to the provisions of the then applicable law may be used for such purpose), such number of fully-paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares as required so that the total number of Ordinary Shares so issued (i.e. including the Ordinary Share into which the Preferred Share was converted) will be equal to the number determined by dividing the Original Issue Price applicable to such Preferred Share by the Conversion Price (as defined below) at the time in effect for such share. In the event that the then applicable law requires that shares are issued for not less than their nominal value, and the aggregate nominal value of all such Ordinary Shares shall exceed the consideration paid to the Company with respect to such Preferred Share, the holder thereof shall pay the Company such excess nominal value to the extent no other source available pursuant to the provisions of the then applicable law (such as premiums paid for other shares of the Company) may be used for such purpose. The initial Conversion Price per each Preferred Share shall be its Original Issue Price, provided, however, that the Conversion Price for the Series A1 Preferred Shares shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in subarticles 9(c), 9(d) and 9(e) and the Conversion Price for the Ordinary Preferred A Shares and Ordinary Preferred B Shares shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in subarticles 9(d) and 9(e). |
(2) | All Preferred Shares shall automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such Preferred Shares upon the earlier of: (A) a Qualified IPO, or (B) the written consent of the Majority Preferred Shareholders. |
- 7 -
(b) | Mechanics of Conversion. |
(1) | Before any holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into Ordinary Shares such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor at the Office and shall give written notice to the Company of the election to convert the same (or any part thereof) and shall state therein the name or names of any nominee for such holder in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Ordinary Shares are to be issued. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter unless such notice states that conversion is to be effective on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled in which case conversion shall take effect on such other date or when such conditions have been fulfilled, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Shares, or subject to the transfer restrictions contained in these Articles to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Ordinary Shares to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Preferred Shares to be converted, or on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares as of such date. If the conversion is in connection with a QIPO, the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering Preferred Shares for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion of the Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Shares until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities. In the event that the certificate(s) representing the Preferred Shares to be converted as aforesaid are not delivered to the Company, then the Company shall not be obligated to issue any certificate(s) representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion, unless the holder of such Preferred Shares notifies the Company in writing that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. |
(2) | A conversion of Preferred Shares pursuant to one of the events described in Article 9(a)(2) shall be deemed to have taken place automatically regardless of whether the certificates representing such shares have been tendered to the Company but from and after such conversion any such certificates not tendered to the Company shall be deemed to evidence solely the Ordinary Shares received upon such conversion and the right to receive a certificate for such Ordinary Shares. |
- 8 -
(c) | Conversion Price Adjustments of Preferred Shares |
Until the QIPO, the applicable Conversion Price of the Series A1 Preferred Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows: |
(1) | Upon each issuance by the Company of any “Additional Securities” (as defined below), without consideration or for a price per share less than the applicable Conversion Price for any issued and outstanding Series A1 Preferred Shares, in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities, the applicable Conversion Price for any such issued and outstanding Series A1 Preferred Shares in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall be adjusted to a price (calculated to the nearest cent ($0.01)) determined by dividing (1) the sum of (A) the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities multiplied by the applicable Conversion Price of the Series A1 Preferred Shares in effect prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities, plus (B) the total amount of the consideration received by the Company for such Additional Securities by (2) the sum of the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities plus the number of such Additional Securities issued. For the purpose of the above calculation, the number of shares of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be calculated on an as converted and fully diluted basis, as if all outstanding warrants, options or other rights for the purchase of shares or convertible securities had been fully exercised (and the resulting securities fully converted into Ordinary Shares, if so convertible) as of such date, but excluding the warrants to purchase Series AA Preferred Shares outstanding prior to the execution of the 2007 Investment Agreement, unless cancelled). |
(2) | (A) | No adjustments of any applicable Conversion Price shall be made in an amount less than one US cent ($0.01). No adjustment of any applicable Conversion Price pursuant to subarticle 9(c)(1) shall be made if it has the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price above the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. |
(B) | In the case of the issuance of Additional Securities (as defined below) for cash, the consideration, for the purpose of subarticles 9(c)(1) shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received therefore before any payment of commissions, expenses and the like. |
(C) | In the case of the issuance of Additional Securities (defined below) for a consideration, in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall, for the purpose of subarticle 9(c)(1) be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined, in good faith, by the Board of Directors. |

(D) | In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares, or securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the aggregate maximum number of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercise, including without limitation, the passing of time, but without taking into account potential anti-dilution adjustments) of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares or upon conversion or an exchange of such convertible or exchangeable security shall be deemed to have been issued at the time of the issuance of such options, rights, or securities at a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subarticle 9(c)(2)(B) and 9(c)(2)(C)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options or rights or securities plus any additional consideration payable to the Company pursuant to the term of such options or rights or securities (without taking into account potential anti-dilution adjustments) for the Ordinary Shares covered thereby, and the applicable Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly. Upon the expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the applicable Conversion Price to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities (unless such options or rights were merely to be included in the numerator and denominator for purposes of determining the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for purposes of Article 9(c)(1)) shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number Ordinary Shares (and convertible or exchangeable securities that remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, or upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such securities. The number of Ordinary Shares deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or expiration of the type described in this Article 9(c)(2)(D). |
(E) | For purpose of subarticle 9(c)(1) hereof, the consideration for any Additional Securities shall be taken into account at the U.S. dollar equivalent thereof, on the day such Additional Securities are issued or deemed to be issued pursuant to subarticle 9(c)(2)(D). |
(3) | “Additional Securities” shall mean any Ordinary Shares, options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares, or securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, or any securities convertible into or exercisable for any securities of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Additional Securities” does not include: |
(A) | Securities issued pursuant to a transaction described in subarticles 9(d) or 9(e) hereof; |
(B) | The issuance, pursuant to the approval of the Board, of Ordinary Shares or Options to purchase Ordinary Shares to employees, directors and bona-fide consultants; |

(H) | Securities issued or issuable following written approval of Majority Preferred Shareholders in which they agree to waive their anti-dilution or pre-emptive rights (as the case may be) with respect to such specific issuance; and |

Subject to the liquidation preference of the Preferred Shares as set forth in Article 8 above, if the Company at any time shall make a distribution of its assets to the holders of its Ordinary Shares as a dividend in liquidation or partial liquidation or by way of return of capital or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally available for dividends, each holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive without payment of any additional consideration, a sum equal to the amount of such assets as would have been payable to such holder as owner of that number of Ordinary Shares receivable by exercise of the conversion rights had such holder been the holder of record of such Ordinary Shares on the record date for such distribution; and an appropriate provision therefor shall be made a part of any such distribution. |

(e) | Recapitalization |
If at any time or from time to time there shall be a Recapitalization Event (other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in this Article 9 or Article 8) provisions shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred Shares shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred Shares the number of Ordinary Shares or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise, to which a holder of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled immediately prior to such Recapitalization Event. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Article 9 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Shares after such Recapitalization Event to the end that the provisions of this Article (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares) shall be applicable after that event in a manner as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. |
If the Company shall subdivide or combine its Ordinary Shares, the applicable Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, in case of subdivision of shares, as at the effective date of such subdivision, or if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so subdividing, as at such record date, whichever is earlier, or shall be proportionately increased, in the case of combination of shares, as at the effective date of such combination, or, if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so combining, as at such record date, whichever is earlier. |
(f) | No Impairment |
The Company will not, by amendment of these Articles or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consideration, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of the Conversion Rights of the holders of Preferred Shares, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 9 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Preferred Shares against impairment. |
(g) | No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments |
(1) | No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share. Whether or not fractional shares are issuable upon such conversion shall be determined on the basis of the total number of Preferred Shares held by the holder and the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon such aggregate conversion. |
(2) | Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of any applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this Article 9, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of Preferred Shares a certificate setting forth each adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a like certificate setting forth (A) such adjustment and readjustment, (B) the applicable Conversion Price at the time in effect, and (C) the number of Ordinary Shares and the amount, if any, of other property which at the time would be received upon the conversion of a Preferred Share. |

(i) | Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion |
The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Ordinary Shares solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Preferred Shares such number of its Ordinary Shares as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Preferred Shares; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Preferred Shares, in addition to such other remedies as shall be available to the holder of such Preferred Shares, the Company will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes. |

Such a pledge shall exist whether the dates of payment or fulfillment or execution of the obligations, debts or commitments have become due or not, and shall apply to all dividends that shall be decided upon from time to time in connection with these shares.

19. | The Company may sell, in such manner and at such time as the Board thinks fit, any of the pledged shares, but no sale shall be made unless the date of payment of the monies or a part thereof has arrived, or the date of fulfillment and performance of the obligations and commitments in consideration of which the pledge exists has arrived, and after a written request has been furnished to the shareholder or person who has acquired a right in the shares, which sets out the amount or obligation or commitment due from him and which demands their payment, fulfillment or execution, and which informs the person of the Board’s desire to sell the shares in the event of non-fulfillment of the notice, and the person has not fulfilled his obligation pursuant to the notice within seven days after the notice has been sent to him. |
20. | The net proceeds of such sale after payment of the costs thereof, shall be applied in payment of such sum due to the Company or to the fulfillment of the obligation or commitment (including debts, liabilities and engagements which have not yet fallen due for payment or satisfaction), and the remainder (if there shall be any) shall be paid to the shareholder or to the person who has acquired a right in the share sold pursuant to the above. |

The sole remedy of any person aggrieved by the sale shall be in damages only and against the Company exclusively. |
TRANSFER OF SHARES AND THE MANAGEMENT THEREOF

Notwithstanding the above, any transfer of shares to any person or entity that is not at the time of transfer a shareholder of the Company and that competes with the Company, directly or indirectly, in the field of optical inspection or metrology for semiconductors or the transfer of shares which have not been fully paid up will require the consent and approval of the Board of Directors, except if such transfer is to a Permitted Transferee. |

(k) | In every one of the events referred to in Articles 29(e), 29(f), 29(g), 29(h), 29(j) and 29(i) the Company shall send within five (5) days after the last date for the submission of each of the Purchase Notices and the Excess Reply Notices to each of the Buyers (with a copy to the Transferor), a notice accompanied by the copies of all Purchase Notices received by the Company of either non-acceptance of the offer pursuant to the Sale Notice or the acceptance thereof (hereinafter the “Acquisition Notice”). |
(l) | After receipt of the Acquisition Notice notifying acceptance, each Buyer shall purchase from the Transferor, and the Transferor shall sell and transfer to such Buyer the number of shares referred to in such notice according to the terms of the Sale Notice (other than in circumstances set forth in Article 29(g) above, in which case the provisions of said Article 29(g) will apply). Upon the transfer to Buyer such shares must be free and clear of any liens or encumbrances unless otherwise specified in the Sale Notice. The Transferor and such Buyer shall each have all remedies for breach of contract available under applicable laws in connection with the transactions set forth in this Article 29. |
(m) | Any Transfer of shares by any Offeree pursuant to the exercise of its co-sale rights under Article 29A shall not give the other Offerees additional rights of first refusal and shall be deemed to have been part of the Offered Shares and included in the Sale Notice to the extent that the number of the shares being Transferred has not changed as a result of the exercise of co-sale rights. To the extent such number has changed, the provisions hereof shall apply to the transaction again, ab initio, and the Transferor shall give a new Sale Notice hereunder. |
29A | CO SALE |
(a) | Should any holder of Preferred Shares (other than Intel) (“Selling Shareholder”) wish to make a Transfer, other than to a Permitted Transferee, then each of the holders of Preferred Shares other than Intel (the “Entitled Shareholders”) shall have the right to participate in the Selling Shareholder’s Transfer of such Offered Shares, in accordance with this Article 29A, pursuant to the specified terms and conditions stated in the Sale Notice, provided that an Entitled Shareholder who is also an Offeree for purposes of Article 29 above shall be entitled to elect whether to exercise its rights under either Article 29 or Article 29A and shall not be entitled to contingently exercise its rights under both such articles. Each of the Entitled Shareholders shall be entitled, upon written notice to the Company and the Selling Shareholder within twenty-one (21) Business Days after receipt of the Sales Notice (“Participating Preferred Shareholders”), to sell to the Transferee up to that number of the Shares in the Company owned by such Participating Preferred Shareholder (the “Equity Shares”) determined by multiplying the total number of Offered Shares times a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Ordinary Shares owned by such Participating Preferred Shareholders (on an as-converted basis) and the denominator of which is the total number of Ordinary Shares owned by all Participating Preferred Shareholders (on an as-converted basis) and the Selling Shareholder. Such written notice shall indicate, subject to the terms of this Article 29A, the number of Shares that the Participating Preferred Shareholder intends to transfer to the Transferee. At the closing of the sale of the Offered Shares to the Transferee, the Selling Shareholder shall transfer his shares to the Transferee only if the Transferee concurrently therewith purchases, on the same terms and conditions specified in the Article 29A Notice, all of the Shares as to which participation notices have been delivered. |
- 21 -
(b) | Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 29A(a), no Transfer in one transaction or in a series of related transactions, of shares representing more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company (on an as converted basis) may be made, other than to a Permitted Transferee, unless the proposed Transferee of such shares offers to purchase the remaining issued and outstanding shares of the Company upon the same terms and conditions. In such event, the consideration payable by the Transferee shall be distributed among all selling shareholders participating in such Transfer in accordance with the terms of Article 8. |
29B | BRING ALONG |
(a) | At any time prior to a QIPO, in the event that: |
Shareholders holding 60% (sixty percent) or more (the “Threshold Percent”) of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares, on an as converted basis (the “Proposing Shareholders”) accept an offer to affect a Merger or Acquisition (the “Offer”); and |
Such Merger or Acquisition is conditioned upon the consent and/or sale of all of the remaining issued shares of the Company; then all remaining shareholders (the “Non Proposing Shareholders”) will be required, if so demanded by the Proposing Shareholders, to vote in favor of, execute the relevant documents, and otherwise take all necessary and reasonable actions relating to such Offer, including to sell their shares upon the same terms and conditions as in the Offer made to the Proposing Shareholders and the proceeds shall be allocated in accordance with the provisions of Article 8. In the event that the Threshold Percent is met, any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, mortgage, disposal or encumbrance of the Shares by the Non Proposing Shareholders other than in connection with the Offer, shall be absolutely prohibited. |
(a)(1) | Without derogating from the aforesaid and in addition to it, the majority required for a forced sale pursuant to Section 341 of the Companies Law shall be 60% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, on an as converted basis (with no need for a separate consent of each class). The distribution of the consideration in such transaction shall be in accordance with the provisions of Article 8. |
(b) | Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation of Intel to sell its shares (the “Transaction”) pursuant to this Article 29B shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: |
- 22 -
(i) | Form of Consideration. Intel shall not be required to accept any consideration for its shares other than cash or freely tradeable equity securities (subject to a lock-up period of no more than 90 days following the issuance of such securities to Intel) which have been admitted to or listed upon (i) the Official List of the UK Listing Authority or (ii) the New York or American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ National Market in the United States of America or (iii) the Geregelter Markt or (iv) Euronext Paris S.A. or (v) such other stock exchange as Intel may agree. |
(ii) | Equal Consideration. Subject to section (iii) below, upon the consummation of the Transaction, all of the holders of Preferred Shares will receive the same form and amount of consideration per Preferred Share, respectively, taking into account any liquidation preference to which the holders of Preferred Shares are entitled, and if any holders of Preferred Shares are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, all holders will be given the same option. |
(iii) | Costs/Expenses. Intel shall not be required to incur any costs or expenses (without limitation whether by way of out of pocket expenses or by way of set off) in connection with the Transaction except its pro rata share of any costs incurred for the benefit of all of the Company’s shareholders and for which Intel has agreed in writing to be responsible in advance of such costs being incurred. For the avoidance of doubt Intel shall be solely responsible for any costs that it decides to incur including the costs of its own counsel. |
(iv) | Representations, Warranties and Indemnities. The only representations, warranties or indemnities that Intel shall be required to make in connection with the Transaction are representations, warranties and indemnities concerning (i) legal ownership of the Company’s securities to be sold by Intel (the “Intel Securities”), and (ii) the corporate authority of Intel to convey title to the Intel Securities, and the ability to do so free and clear of liens, encumbrances or adverse claims (the “Intel Required Obligations”). The Intel Required Obligations shall be in the same form as those to be given by each of the other shareholders of the Company and shall be given by Intel on a several (but not joint) basis only. |
(v) | Liability. Intel shall not accept, assume or be deemed to have assumed any joint, or joint and several, liability with any other shareholder(s), the Company or any other party, with respect to any representation, warranty, indemnity, covenant or combination thereof made by such other shareholder(s), the Company or other party in connection with the Transaction. Intel’s liability shall in any event be limited to the amount of consideration actually received by Intel in cleared funds. |
(vi) | Escrow and Liability upon Escrow. In the event that consideration for any of the shares in the Company is to be placed in escrow (the “Escrow Amount”), such Escrow Amount will not exceed 15% of the total consideration payable to all shareholders of the Company and that the Escrow Amount, to the extent that no claim has been made against it and for such amount as might remain following such claim, will be released to the shareholders at the latest three (3) months following the end of the acquiring company’s first accounting period after the consummation of the transfer of Intel’s shares or eighteen (18) months after the consummation of such transfer (the later of the two). Intel’s liability shall be limited to its pro rata share of the Escrow Amount (Intel’s pro rata share to be calculated on the basis of the consideration due to Intel as a proportion of the aggregate consideration due to all shareholders in the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, the Escrow Amount may be used to satisfy claims arising out of breaches by the Company of representations and warranties given by the Company in connection with a Transaction, all subject to the foregoing terms and conditions. |
- 23 -
(vii) | US Securities. If the consideration proposed for Intel’s shares is in the form of securities of an issuer incorporated in the United States, Intel shall not be obligated to participate in the Transaction unless it is provided an opinion of counsel to the effect that the sale in connection with such Transaction is not in violation of the registration or qualification requirements of federal or applicable state securities laws in the United States, or, if Intel is not provided with such an opinion, the Company shall indemnify Intel for any violation. |
(vii) | Other Agreements. Intel shall not be required to amend, extend or terminate any contractual or other relationship with the Company, the acquirer or their respective affiliates. |
(viii) | Covenant Not to Compete. Intel shall not be required to agree to any covenants including without limitation any covenant not to compete or any covenant not to solicit any of the customers, employees or suppliers of any party to the Transaction. |
Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation of Orbotech to sell its shares (the “OrbotechTransaction”) pursuant to this Article 29B shall be subject to the condition that the only representations, warranties or indemnities that Orbotech shall be required to make in connection with the Orbotech Transaction are representations, warranties and indemnities concerning (i) legal ownership of the Company’s securities to be sold by Orbotech (the “Orbotech Securities”), and (ii) the corporate authority of Orbotech to convey title to the Orbotech Securities, and the ability to do so free and clear of liens, encumbrances or adverse claims (the “Orbotech Required Obligations”). The Orbotech Required Obligations shall be in the same form as those to be given by each of the other shareholders of the Company and shall be given by Orbotech on a several (but not joint) basis only. |
29C. | STAND STILL |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, any issuance of securities by the Company, and any sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance or other disposal of any of the securities of the Company (by the Company or any shareholder), or any other action (including repurchase of any shares of the Company by the Company or by any subsidiary thereof), other than any action in which the provisions of Article 29B (Bring Along) shall apply, which results in a Strategic Investor (as defined below) whether or not a shareholder of the Company, holding (together with affiliates, Permitted Transferees, or other parties acting in concert with it) more than 20% of the voting rights in the Company, is prohibited unless approved in writing in advance by the Majority Preferred Shareholders (excluding, for the purposes of such majority, any Strategic Investors and their affiliates and Permitted Transferees or other parties acting in concert with them) and on terms and conditions approved by them. Any of the transactions set forth in the forgoing sentence not so approved shall be null and void and shall not be registered in the Company’s Shareholders Register. For purpose hereof a “Strategic Investor” shall mean a corporation or other business entity whose business is related to the Company’s business and who is likely to have a business or technologic interest in the Company’s business, as distinguished from an interest for the sole purpose of a financial investment. |

CALLS
30. | A shareholder shall not be entitled to receive dividends nor to use any right a shareholder has, or receive any benefit or entitlement stated in these Articles (including without limitation, the rights set forth in Articles 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 29, 29A, 65 and 86 hereof), unless he has paid all the calls that shall be made from time to time prior to or on the date appointed for payment thereof, with respect of money unpaid on all of his shares, whether he is the sole holder or holds the shares together with another person, in addition to interest and expenses if there shall be any. |
31. | The Board may, subject to the provisions of these Articles or any agreement with the applicable shareholders, make calls upon the shareholders from time to time in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares, as they shall determine proper, upon the condition that there shall be given prior notice of fourteen (14) days on every call and each shareholder shall be obligated to pay the total amount requested from him, or the installment on account of the call (if there shall so be) at the times and places to be determined by the Board. |
32. | The calls for payment shall be deemed to have been requested from the date the Board shall have decided upon the calls for payment. |
33. | The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay the calls for payment in full and the installment on account, in connection with such calls. |
34. | If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid the holders of the share or the person to whom it has been issued shall be liable to pay interest and linkage differentials upon the amount of the call or the payments on account, as determined by the Board of Directors commencing from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of actual payment, but the Board shall be at liberty to waiver payment of that interest, wholly or in part. |
35. | Any amount that according to the condition of issuance of a share must be paid at the time of issuance or at a fixed date, whether on account of the sum of the share or premium, shall be deemed for the purposes of these Articles to be a call of payment that was made duly and the date of payment shall be the date appointed for payment. In the event of non-payment of this amount all of the Articles herein dealing with payment of interest, expenses, forfeiture, pledge and the like and all the other Articles connected therewith, shall apply, as if this sum had been duly requested and notice had been given, as aforesaid. |
- 25 -
36. | The Board may make arrangements at the time of issue of shares for a difference between the holders with respect to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment, and the rate of interest. |
37. | The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any shareholder willing to pay in advance all of the monies or a part thereof that shall be due on account of his shares, in addition to any amounts or a part thereof that shall be due on account of his shares, in addition to any amounts that the payment in fact has been requested and they shall be permitted to pay him interest at the rate the Board and shareholders shall agree upon, for the amounts paid in advance as aforesaid, or upon the part thereof which is in excess of the amounts whose payment was at the time requested on account of his shares in connection with which the payments have been made in advance, in addition to paying dividends that will be paid for that part of the share which has been paid in advance. The Board of Directors may at any time repay any amount so advanced without premium or penalty by giving such shareholder seven days’ prior notice in writing. Nothing in this Article 37 shall derogate from the right of the Board of Directors to make any call before or after receipt by the Company of any such advance. |
FORFEITURE OF SHARES
38. | If a shareholder fails to pay any call or installment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Board may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of such call or installment remains unpaid, serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or installment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses that were incurred as a result of such non-payment. |
39. | The notice shall name a further day, not earlier than the expiration of seven days from the date of the notice, on or before which the amount of the call or installment or a part thereof is to be made together with interest and any expenses incurred as a result of such non-payment. The notice shall also state the place the payment is to be made and that in the event of non-payment, at or before the time appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited. |
40. | If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to that effect. In such event, the provisions of Section 181 of the Companies Law shall apply, and the shares so forfeited shall be “dormant shares” as provided for therein. The forfeiture shall include those dividends that were declared but not yet distributed, with respect to the forfeited shares. |
41. | A share so forfeited shall be deemed to be the property of the Company and can be sold or otherwise disposed of, on such terms and in such manner as the Board thinks fit, subject to applicable law. Such shares shall not be deemed, for the purposes of these Articles, to comprise part of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, and shall be disregarded for the purposes of calculations based thereon. At any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be canceled on such terms as the Board thinks fit. |
42. | A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall notwithstanding remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which, at the date of forfeiture, were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company receives payment in full of all moneys that, at the date of forfeiture, were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares (including interest and expenses). |
- 26 -
43. | Without derogating from Article 30 above, the forfeiture of a share shall cause, at the time of forfeiture, the cancellation of all rights in the Company or any claim or demand against it with respect to that share and the other rights and obligations between the share owner and the Company accompanying the share, except for those rights and obligations not included in such a cancellation according to these Articles or that the Companies Law imposes upon former shareholders. |
44. | The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified. |
MODIFICATION OF CAPITAL
45. | Subject to the provisions of Article 12 above and to any applicable law, the Company may, from time to time, by resolution duly adopted according to these Articles: |
(a) | consolidate and divide all or any of its issued or unissued share capital into shares of larger nominal value than its existing shares; |
(b) | cancel any shares which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person; |
(c) | by subdivision of its existing shares, or any of them, divide the whole, or any part, of its share capital into shares of smaller amounts than is fixed by the Memorandum of Association in a manner that with respect to the shares created as a result of the division it will be possible within the resolution of division to grant to one or more shares a preferable right or advantage with respect to dividend, capital, voting or otherwise over the remaining share or other similar shares; |
(d) | reduce its share capital and any fund reserved for capital redemption in the manner that it shall deem to be correct. |
INCREASE OF SHARE CAPITAL
46. | Subject to the provisions of Article 12 above and to any applicable law, the Company shall be permitted from time to time, by resolution duly adopted according to these Articles, to increase its share capital – whether or not all its shares have been issued, or whether the shares issued have been paid in full – by creation of new shares. This new capital shall be in such an amount, divided into shares in such amounts and have such preferable or deferred or other special rights (subject always to the special rights conferred upon an existing class of share), subject to any condition and restrictions with respect to dividends, return of capital, voting or otherwise, all as shall be directed by the general meeting in its resolution sanctioning the increase of the share capital. |
- 27 -
47. | Subject to any decision to the contrary in the resolution sanctioning the increase in share capital, pursuant to these Articles, the new share capital shall be deemed to be part of the original share capital of the Company and shall be subject to the same provisions with reference to payment of calls, liens, title, forfeiture, transfer and otherwise as apply to the original share capital. |

The Board of Directors shall be permitted, in this regard, to grant cash or property to trustees in escrow for the benefit of persons entitled thereto, as the Board shall see beneficial. Wherever required, an agreement shall be submitted to the registrar of companies and the Board may appoint a person to execute such an agreement in the name of the persons entitled to a dividend, property, fully paid up shares or debentures as shares or debentures as aforesaid, and such an appointment shall be valid. |

96. | All premiums received from the issue of shares shall be capital funds and they shall be treated for every purpose as capital and not as profits distributable as dividends. The Board of Directors may organize a reserve capital liability account and transfer, from time to time, all such premiums to the reserve capital liability account or use such premiums and monies to cover depreciation or doubtful loss. All losses from sale of investments or other property of the Company shall be debited from other funds of the Company. The Board of Directors may use any monies credited to the capital reserve liability account in any manner that these Articles or the Companies Law permits. |

No more than two (2) requests shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.1. In no event shall the Company be required to effect more than one demand registration in each six (6) month period. |
2.2 If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2 and the Initiating Holders shall have the right to propose the managing underwriter in any underwritten offering (and such proposal shall include in general the proposed terms of the underwriting agreement and pricing of the transaction), subject to the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall not be withheld if it is the lead or co-lead from the IPO or other prior registered offering or one of the top twenty underwriters by volume of deals in the preceding twelve months. In the event that the Initiating Holders do not propose a managing underwriter or the Company reasonably withholds consent to the proposed managing underwriter, the Company shall have the right to designate the managing underwriter(s) in any underwritten offering, subject to the consent of the Initiating Holders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. |

2.3 If the underwriter of such offering determines that the number of shares requested by the Holders is greater than the number of shares that may be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in such registration shall be reduced accordingly, and there shall be excluded from such registration to the extent necessary to satisfy such limitation, first shares held by shareholders other than the Holders, then shares which the Company may wish to register for its own account, and thereafter, to the extent necessary, shares held by the Holders (pro rata to the respective number of Registrable Shares then outstanding held by such Holders) and any Registrable Securities excluded from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from the registration. A registration statement shall not be counted as a request for the purpose of this Section 2 if, as a result of an exercise of the underwriter’s cut-back provisions set forth herein, less than 30% of the total number of Registrable Securities that Holders have requested to be included in such registration statement are actually included. |
3. | Incidental Registration |
3.1 At any time after the IPO, if the Company proposes to register any of its stock or other securities under the Act in connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than registration statements pursuant to Section 2 above or relating to employee benefit plans or with respect to corporate reorganization or other transactions under Rule 145 of the Act), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give the Holders written notice of such registration. Upon the written request of a Holder given within twenty (20) days after receipt of such notice from the Company in accordance with the notice provision of this Agreement, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause to be registered under the Act all of the Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested to be registered. In the event the Company shall grant to any shareholder the right to register securities immediately upon the IPO of the Company, then the rights of the Holders pursuant to this Section 3 shall be adjusted accordingly, and the Holders shall be entitled to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 3 immediately upon IPO. |
3.2 In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under Section 3 to include any of a Holder’s securities in such underwriting unless the Holder (i) agrees to the sale of (including any restriction on the sale of) its securities on the basis provided in any customary underwriting arrangements, including customary lock-up periods as required by (x) the underwriters with respect to any shares, provided such period shall not exceed the period of 180 days in respect of the IPO and 90 days in respect of any other offering (provided that in such other offering at least 23% of the securities included in such registration are Registrable Securities requested to be included by the Holders), and provided that all senior employees, shareholders and management are subject to such lock-up period unless the Holders of the majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered therein agree in writing to waive such pre-condition or (y) applicable law, or (z) stock exchanges; and (ii) provides any relevant information reasonably requested and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, all reasonably requested, and other documents reasonably requested, that are required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements and then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine, in their sole discretion, will not materially and adversely effect the success of the offering by the Company. If such underwriters determine that the total amount of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by a Holder to be included in such offering could materially adversely affect the success of such offering, then the Company shall be required to include in such offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not materially adversely affect the success of the offering, provided the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each holder of Registrable Securities participating in such offering,; provided that in any event the Holders shall be entitled to register at least 23% of the securities to be included in any such registration. |
4
4. | Form F-3 Registration. |
In case the Company shall receive at any time commencing six (6) months (or any longer period as required by law or regulation) after the effective date of the IPO from a Holder or Holders of the Registrable Securities then outstanding a request or requests that the Company effect a registration on Form F-3 and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by the Holder, the Company shall promptly give written notice of such request to the other Holders and the Company shall: |
Use best efforts to effect, as soon as practicable, such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all of the Holder’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such request and all Registrable Securities held by such Holders who wish to participate in such demand registration and provide the Company with written requests for inclusion therein within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the Company’s notice; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification or compliance, pursuant to this section 4: |
(i) | if Form F-3 is not available for such offering by the Holder; or |
(ii) | in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance; or |
(iii) | the requested registration would have an aggregate offering price of all Registrable Shares sought to be registered, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, below $1,500,000. |
Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities as soon as practicable after receipt of the request of a Holder as aforesaid. |
5. | Obligations of the Company. |
Whenever required under this Agreement to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible: |
5
5.1 Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders, keep such registration statement effective for up to one hundred and twenty days or, if sooner, until the distribution contemplated in the Registration Statement has been completed. |
5.2 Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement. |
5.3 Furnish to the Holders and each duly authorized underwriter such number of authorized copies of a prospectus, including copies of a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable Securities owned by the Holders. |
5.4 Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions. |
5.5 In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, including indemnification and other customary provisions, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. If a Holder shall participate in such underwriting he shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. |
5.6 Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement: |
(i) | promptly after the Company shall receive notice thereof, of the time when such registration statement becomes effective or when any amendment or supplement or any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed; |
(ii) | promptly of any request by the SEC for the amending or supplementing of such registration statement or prospectus for additional information; |
(iii) | at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing. |
6
5.7 Advise a Holder if his Registrable Shares are included in such registration statement promptly after the Company shall receive notice or otherwise obtain knowledge of the issuance of any order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or amendment thereto or of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose; and promptly use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal promptly if a stop order should be issued; |
5.8 Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of a Holder in the event he is requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Agreement, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to a Holder in the event he is requesting registration of Registrable Securities and (ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to a Holder in the event he is requesting registration of Registrable Securities. |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration pursuant to this Agreement: (i) within a period of one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a previous registration of the Company’s securities and (ii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the registration statement for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of the request of a Holder under this Agreement; provided, however, that with respect to a registration requested pursuant to Sections 2 or 4 above: (A) the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve (12) month period; (B) the Company shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other stockholder during such one hundred twenty (120) day period other than S-8 registration or the like, and (C) if the Initiating Holders disapprove of the deferral of the registration, they may elect to withdraw their demand by written notice to the Company, in which case such registration, if effected, shall not be counted for the purpose of Section 2. |
7
6. | Expenses of Registration |
All expenses (other than underwriting discounts, fees and commissions) incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2, 3 and 4, including (without limitation) all registration, filing and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders (the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of Holders of the majority of the Registrable Securities to be so registered (in which case the Holder shall bear such expenses), unless such Holders agree to forfeit their right to the demand registration pursuant to Section 2; provided further, however that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of the request and have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change or in the event that the Holders have withdrawn their registration request in accordance with the second paragraph of Section 5.8, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to Section 2. All underwriting discounts, fees and commissions applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne by the holders of such Registrable Securities, pro rata on the basis of the number of shares sold in the respective offering. |
7. | Indemnification. In the event any Registrable Securities are included in a registration statement pursuant to this Agreement: |
7.1 To the extent permitted by law the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each of the Holders, any underwriter (as defined in the Act) for the Holders, each of their directors, shareholders, partners and officers, and legal counsel and independent accountants, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Act or the 1934 Act (collectively and individually referred to as the “Indemnified Party”) against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (joint or several) (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any of the following statements, omissions or violations: (i) untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto, offering circular or other document; or (ii) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (iii) any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of the Act or any other securities laws, and will reimburse such Indemnified Party for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, (i) that the Company will not be liable to an Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, damage, liability, cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or omission in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Indemnified Party, and stated to be specifically for use therein; and (ii) that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 7.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
8
7.2 To the extent permitted by law, each Holder , in the event that his Registrable Securities are included in such registration, will indemnify the Company, each of its directors and officers and its legal counsel and independent accountants, each underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such registration statement, each other Holder selling Registrable Securities in such registration and each person who controls the Company, such underwriter or such other Holder within the meaning of the Act, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse the Company, such directors, officers, persons, underwriters, Holders, or control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by an instrument duly executed by such Holderand stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds (net of underwriters discounts, fees and commissions) to such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities sold by such Holder pursuant to such registration and provided further that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 7.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. |
7.3 If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions, for any reason other than as specified therein, the parties entitled to indemnification by the terms thereof shall be entitled to contribution to liabilities and expenses as more fully set forth in an underwriting agreement to be executed in connection with such registration. In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, there shall be considered the parties’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable considerations appropriate under the circumstances. In no event shall the liability of a Holder exceed the proceeds (net of underwriters discounts, fees and commissions) from the offering received by such Holder. |
7.4 Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure results in a lack of timely actual knowledge by the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party suffers actual damage as a result thereof or actual prejudices to its ability to defend such action. |
9
7.4 The obligations of the Company and the Holders under this Section 7 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement under this Agreement, and otherwise. |

In the event the Company becomes subject to reporting under the 1934 Act, then with a view to making available to the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Act and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to a registration on Form F-3, the Company agrees to: |

8.3 file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Act and the 1934 Act; and |
8.4 furnish to each Holder, so long as such Holder owns any Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at any time after ninety (90) days after the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company), the Act and the 1934 Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form F-3 (at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in availing the Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form. |
9. | Assignment of Registration Rights and Grant of Additional Rights. |

From time to time, the parties may make available to each other, in written form or orally, information of a confidential and proprietary nature including, but not limited to, technology, technical, test and analysis data, specifications, prototypes, marketing, application, financial, bookkeeping, business, and customer information. The parties shall not disclose such information to others or use such information without the prior written consent of the disclosing party or as necessary to carry out the terms of this Agreement. Each party shall treat such information with the same care as it would exercise in the handling of its own confidential or proprietary information and shall obtain reasonable assurances that each person to whom such information is disclosed, will hold such information in confidence. Confidential information as referred to in this Section 11 shall not include information (i) which is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party; (ii) which is known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis at the time of disclosure by the disclosing party, as evidenced by the receiving party’s written records; (iii) which is disclosed to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis by a third party having no obligation of secrecy to the disclosing party; or (iv) which is subsequently independently developed by or for the receiving party without use of confidential information. Notwithstanding the aforesaid: (i) a party shall be entitled to disclose confidential information which it is required to disclose under any applicable law or stock exchange regulations, provided, however, that such disclosure is made to the minimum extent required and provided that a prior notice of disclosure is given to the disclosing party and sufficient opportunity to limit or contest such disclosure; (ii) a party shall be entitled to disclose confidential information to any person or entity to which such party transfers or considers transferring securities in the Company, subject to a standard undertaking not less strict than the undertaking set out herein, and (iii) in connection with periodic and financial reports to its shareholders, investors or partners, each party may make general statements regarding the nature and progress of the Company’s business, and may provide summary financial information of the Company. The provisions of this Section 11 shall not apply to Intel. Instead, the terms of Section 3 (“Confidentiality”) of the Intel Side Agreement by and between the Company, Intel and additional parties, dated July 2002, shall continue to apply with respect to Intel (and this Agreement shall be deemed a “Financing Agreement” for the purpose of said Section 3). |

12. | If for the validation of any of the undertakings in this Letter of Indemnification and Release any act, resolution, approval or other procedure is required the Company undertakes to cause them to be done or adopted in a manner which will enable the Company to fulfill all its undertakings as aforesaid. |
13. | For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby clarified that nothing contained in this Letter of Indemnification and Release or in the above resolutions derogate from the Company’s right to indemnify you post factum for any amounts which you may be obligated to pay as set forth in paragraph 1 above without the limitations set forth in paragraphs 5 and 6 above. |
14. | If any undertaking or release included in this Letter of Indemnification and Release is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any of the other undertakings or releases which will remain in full force and effect. Furthermore, if such invalid or unenforceable undertaking or release may be modified or amended so as to be valid and enforceable as a matter of law, such undertakings or releases will be deemed to have been modified or amended, and any competent court or arbitrator are hereby authorized to modify or amend such undertaking or release, so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. |
- 7 -
15. | This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to rules of conflicts of laws.

17. | This Letter of Indemnification and Release contains the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and yourself in respect of the subject matter hereof and terminates and replaces any previous agreement in such respect, provided however, that no previous exemption or release (as opposed to indemnity undertakings) given to you from and against any liability for monetary or other damages due to, or arising or resulting from a breach of your duty of care to the Company shall be affected. |
Sincerely,

9. | CONVERSION OF PREFERRED SHARES |
The holders of the Preferred Shares shall have conversion rights as follows (the “Conversion Rights”): |
- 7 -
(a) | Right to Convert. |
(1) | Subject to Article 9(c), each fully paid Preferred Share shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such Preferred Share at the Office or any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares, into one fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Share nominal value NIS 0.01 and the Company shall, at such time, issue to the holders thereof, for no additional charge (a portion of the premium paid for such Preferred Shares being attributed as payment on account of the nominal value of such additional Ordinary Shares – in the event that the then applicable law requires that shares are issued for no less than their nominal value and to the extent no other source available pursuant to the provisions of the then applicable law may be used for such purpose), such number of fully-paid and non-assessable Ordinary Shares as required so that the total number of Ordinary Shares so issued (i.e. including the Ordinary Share into which the Preferred Share was converted) will be equal to the number determined by dividing the Original Issue Price applicable to such Preferred Share by the Conversion Price (as defined below) at the time in effect for such share. In the event that the then applicable law requires that shares are issued for not less than their nominal value, and the aggregate nominal value of all such Ordinary Shares shall exceed the consideration paid to the Company with respect to such Preferred Share, the holder thereof shall pay the Company such excess nominal value to the extent no other source available pursuant to the provisions of the then applicable law (such as premiums paid for other shares of the Company) may be used for such purpose. The initial Conversion Price per each Preferred Share shall be its Original Issue Price, provided, however, that the Conversion Price for the Preferred Shares shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in subarticles 9(c), 9(d) and 9(e). |
(2) | Each Preferred Share shall automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Price at the time in effect for such Preferred Share upon the earlier of: (A) a Qualified IPO, or (B) the written consent of the Majority Preferred Shareholders, provided however that if such conversion is not part of, or conditioned upon the closing of, a Qualified Transaction (as defined in Article (12)(e) below), such conversion shall be subject to the Special BB Consent as set forth in Article 12(e) below. The Series AA Preferred Shares shall also automatically be converted into Ordinary Shares as aforesaid upon the consent of the holders of at least sixty six percent (66%) of the issued and then outstanding Series AA Preferred Shares. |
- 8 -
(b) | Mechanics of Conversion. |
(1) | Before any holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert the same into Ordinary Shares such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor at the Office and shall give written notice to the Company of the election to convert the same (or any part thereof) and shall state therein the name or names of any nominee for such holder in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Ordinary Shares are to be issued. The Company shall, as soon as practicable thereafter unless such notice states that conversion is to be effective on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled in which case conversion shall take effect on such other date or when such conditions have been fulfilled, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Preferred Shares, or subject to the transfer restrictions contained in these Articles to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Ordinary Shares to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Preferred Shares to be converted, or on any later date or when any conditions specified in the notice have been fulfilled and the person or persons entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Ordinary Shares as of such date. If the conversion is in connection with a QIPO, the conversion may, at the option of any holder tendering Preferred Shares for conversion, be conditioned upon the closing with the underwriter of the sale of securities pursuant to such offering, in which event the person(s) entitled to receive the Ordinary Shares issuable upon such conversion of the Preferred Shares shall not be deemed to have converted such Preferred Shares until immediately prior to the closing of such sale of securities. In the event that the certificate(s) representing the Preferred Shares to be converted as aforesaid are not delivered to the Company, then the Company shall not be obligated to issue any certificate(s) representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion, unless the holder of such Preferred Shares notifies the Company in writing that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. |
(2) | A conversion of Preferred Shares pursuant to one of the events described in Article 9(a)(2) shall be deemed to have taken place automatically regardless of whether the certificates representing such shares have been tendered to the Company but from and after such conversion any such certificates not tendered to the Company shall be deemed to evidence solely the Ordinary Shares received upon such conversion and the right to receive a certificate for such Ordinary Shares. |
(c) | Conversion Price Adjustments of Preferred Shares |
Until the QIPO, the applicable Conversion Price of the Preferred Shares shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows: |
(1) | During the period commencing on the closing of the Poalim Agreement, and ending on the earlier of (x) the QIPO or (y) 24 months following such date (the “Initial Period”), upon each issuance by the Company of any “Additional Securities” (as defined below) without consideration or for a price per share less than the applicable Conversion Price for any issued and outstanding Series BB Preferred Shares in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities, the applicable Conversion Price for any such issued and outstanding Series BB Preferred Share in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall be adjusted to the price per share paid at such issuance. |
- 9 -
(2) | With respect to the Series BB Preferred Shares during the period after the Initial Period and until the QIPO and with respect to the Series AA Preferred Shares during the Initial Period and thereafter until the QIPO, upon each issuance by the Company of any “Additional Securities” (as defined below), without consideration or for a price per share less than the applicable Conversion Price for any issued and outstanding applicable series of Preferred Shares in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities, the applicable Conversion Price for any such issued and outstanding series of Preferred Shares in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall be adjusted to a price (calculated to the nearest ten thousandth of a US Dollar ($0.0001)) determined by dividing (1) the sum of (A) the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities multiplied by the applicable Conversion Price of such series, as the case may be, in effect prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities, plus (B) the total amount of the consideration received by the Company for such Additional Securities by (2) the sum of the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Securities plus the number of such Additional Securities issued. For the purpose of the above calculation, the number of shares of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to such issue shall be calculated on an as converted and fully diluted basis, as if all outstanding warrants, options or other rights for the purchase of shares or convertible securities had been fully exercised (and the resulting securities fully converted into Ordinary Shares, if so convertible) as of such date. |
(3) | In the event that the full application of the anti dilution protection in subarticles 9(c)(1) and 9(c)(2) cannot be implemented mathematically, then the Series BB Preferred Shares shall have absolute priority over the Series AA Preferred Shares in implementation of the above, such that only the Series BB Preferred Shares shall be provided with the anti-dilution protection. |
(4) | (A) | No adjustments of any applicable Conversion Price shall be made in an amount less than ten thousandth of a US Dollar ($0.0001). No adjustment of any applicable Conversion Price pursuant to subarticles 9(c)(1) and (2) shall be made if it has the effect of increasing the applicable Conversion Price above the applicable Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. |
(B) | In the case of the issuance of Additional Securities (as defined below) for cash, the consideration, for the purpose of subarticles 9(c)(1) and (2), shall be deemed to be the amount of cash received therefore before any payment of commissions, expenses and the like. |
(C) | In the case of the issuance of Additional Securities (defined below) for a consideration, in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall, for the purpose of subarticles 9(c)(1) and (2), be deemed to be the fair value thereof as determined, in good faith, by the Board of Directors. |
- 10 -
(D) | In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares, or securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, the aggregate maximum number of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercise, including without limitation, the passing of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares or upon conversion or an exchange of such convertible or exchangeable security shall be deemed to have been issued at the time of the issuance of such options, rights, or securities at a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subarticle 9(c)(4)(B) and (c)(4)(C)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options or rights or securities plus any additional consideration payable to the Company pursuant to the term of such options or rights or securities (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for the Ordinary Shares covered thereby, and the applicable Conversion Price shall be adjusted accordingly. Upon the expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Conversion Price for such series of Preferred Shares to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities or options or rights related to such securities (unless such options or rights were merely to be included in the numerator and denominator for purposes of determining the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding for purposes of Article 9(c)(2)) shall be recomputed to reflect the issuance of only the number Ordinary Shares (and convertible or exchangeable securities that remain in effect) actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, or upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such securities. The number of Ordinary Shares deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or expiration of the type described in this Article 9(c)(4)(D). |
(E) | For purpose of subarticles 9(c)(1) and (2) hereof, the consideration for any Additional Securities shall be taken into account at the U.S. dollar equivalent thereof, on the day such Additional Securities are issued or deemed to be issued pursuant to subarticle 9(c)(4)(D). |
(5) | “Additional Securities” shall mean any Ordinary Shares, options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Ordinary Shares, or securities which by their terms are convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, or any securities convertible into or exercisable for any securities of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Additional Securities” does not include: |
- 11 -
(A) | Securities issued pursuant to a transaction described in subarticle 9(c)(6) hereof; |
(B) | The issuance, pursuant to the approval of the Board, of Ordinary Shares or Options to purchase Ordinary Shares to employees, directors and bona-fide consultants; |
(C) | Securities issued pursuant to options, warrants or other rights outstanding on the closing of the Poalim Agreement or on the closing of the Wellington Agreement or on the closing of the Amadeus Agreement, provided that such options, warrants or other rights are reflected in the respective Capitalization Table attached to any of such agreements; |
(D) | Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of Preferred Shares; |
(E) | Issuance of bonus shares, providing such bonus shares are issued to all the then existing shareholders, or shares issued pursuant to a rights offering in which all such shares are offered exclusively to existing shareholders; |
(F) | Shares issued in the acquisition of another company provided that the issuance of such shares is approved by the Board of Directors; |
(G) | Shares issued in connection with equipment leases, bank loans or secured debt financings approved by the Board of Directors provided the number of such shares issued shall not exceed 1% of the then issued and outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully diluted, as converted basis; |
(H) | Securities issued or issuable following written approval of Majority Preferred Shareholders in which they agree to waive their anti-dilution or pre-emptive rights (as the case may be) with respect to such specific issuance; and |
(I) | Securities issued as a charitable donation pursuant to Article 3A. |
(6) | If the Company shall subdivide or combine its Ordinary Shares, the applicable Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced, in case of subdivision of shares, as at the effective date of such subdivision, or if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so subdividing, as at such record date, whichever is earlier, or shall be proportionately increased, in the case of combination of shares, as at the effective date of such combination, or, if the Company shall fix a record date for the purpose of so combining, as at such record date, whichever is earlier. |
- 12 -
(7) | Subject to the liquidation preference of the Preferred Shares as set forth in Article 8 above, if the Company at any time shall make a distribution of its assets to the holders of its Ordinary Shares as a dividend in liquidation or partial liquidation or by way of return of capital or other than as a dividend payable out of earnings or surplus legally available for dividends, each holder of Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive without payment of any additional consideration, a sum equal to the amount of such assets as would have been payable to such holder as owner of that number of Ordinary Shares receivable by exercise of the conversion rights had such holder been the holder of record of such Ordinary Shares on the record date for such distribution; and an appropriate provision therefor shall be made a part of any such distribution. |
(d) | Other Distributions |
Subject to the liquidation preference of the Preferred Shares as set forth in Article 8 above, in the event the Company shall declare a distribution payable in securities of other persons, evidences of indebtedness issued by the Company or other persons, assets (excluding cash dividends) or options or rights not referred to in subarticle 9(c)(5) or if the Company at any time shall pay a dividend payable in additional Ordinary Shares or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional Ordinary Shares then, in each such case for the purpose of this subarticle 9(d), the holders of the Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive such distribution, in respect of their holdings on an as-converted basis as of the record date for such distribution. |
(e) | Recapitalizations |
If at any time or from time to time there shall be a Recapitalization Event (other than a subdivision, combination or merger or sale of assets transaction provided for elsewhere in this Article 9 or Article 8) provisions shall be made so that the holders of the Preferred Shares shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Preferred Shares the number of Ordinary Shares or other securities or property of the Company or otherwise, to which a holder of Ordinary Shares deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled immediately prior to such Recapitalization Event. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Article 9 with respect to the rights of the holders of the Preferred Shares after such Recapitalization Event to the end that the provisions of this Article (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares) shall be applicable after that event in a manner as nearly equivalent as may be practicable. |
(f) | No Impairment |
The Company will not, by amendment of these Articles or through any reorganization, recapitalization, transfer of assets, consideration, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of the Conversion Rights of the holders of Preferred Shares, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Article 9 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the Conversion Rights of the holders of the Preferred Shares against impairment. |
- 13 -
(g) | No Fractional Shares and Certificate as to Adjustments |
(1) | No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Shares, and the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

(2) | Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of any applicable Conversion Price pursuant to this Article 9, the Company, at its expense, shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and prepare and furnish to each holder of Preferred Shares a certificate setting forth each adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

Such a pledge shall exist whether the dates of payment or fulfillment or execution of the obligations, debts or commitments have become due or not, and shall apply to all dividends that shall be decided upon from time to time in connection with these shares.

19. | The Company may sell, in such manner and at such time as the Board thinks fit, any of the pledged shares, but no sale shall be made unless the date of payment of the monies or a part thereof has arrived, or the date of fulfillment and performance of the obligations and commitments in consideration of which the pledge exists has arrived, and after a written request has been furnished to the shareholder or person who has acquired a right in the shares, which sets out the amount or obligation or commitment due from him and which demands their payment, fulfillment or execution, and which informs the person of the Board’s desire to sell the shares in the event of non-fulfillment of the notice, and the person has not fulfilled his obligation pursuant to the notice within seven days after the notice has been sent to him. |
- 19 -

21. | After execution of a sale as aforesaid, the Board shall be permitted to sign or to appoint someone to sign a deed of transfer of the sold shares and to register the buyer’s name in the register of shareholders as the owner of the sold shares and it shall not be the obligation of the buyer to supervise the application of monies nor will his right in the shares be affected by a defect or illegality in the sale proceedings after his name has been registered in the register of shareholders with respect to those shares. The sole remedy of any person aggrieved by the sale shall be in damages only and against the Company exclusively. |

In the event that the Threshold Percent is met, any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, mortgage, disposal or encumbrance of the Shares by the Non Proposing Shareholders other than in connection with the Offer, shall be absolutely prohibited. |

(iii) | Costs/Expenses. Intel shall not be required to incur any costs or expenses (without limitation whether by way of out of pocket expenses or by way of set off) in connection with the Transaction except its pro rata share of any costs incurred for the benefit of all of the Company’s shareholders and for which Intel has agreed in writing to be responsible in advance of such costs being incurred. For the avoidance of doubt Intel shall be solely responsible for any costs that it decides to incur including the costs of its own counsel. |

In the event that consideration for any of the shares in the Company is to be placed in escrow (the “Escrow Amount”), such Escrow Amount will not exceed 15% of the total consideration payable to all shareholders of the Company and that the Escrow Amount, to the extent that no claim has been made against it and for such amount as might remain following such claim, will be released to the shareholders at the latest three (3) months following the end of the acquiring company’s first accounting period after the consummation of the transfer of Intel’s shares or eighteen (18) months after the consummation of such transfer (the later of the two). Intel’s liability shall be limited to its pro rata share of the Escrow Amount (Intel’s pro rata share to be calculated on the basis of the consideration due to Intel as a proportion of the aggregate consideration due to all shareholders in the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, the Escrow Amount may be used to satisfy claims arising out of breaches by the Company of representations and warranties given by the Company in connection with a Transaction, all subject to the foregoing terms and conditions. |
(vii) | US Securities. If the consideration proposed for Intel’s shares is in the form of securities of an issuer incorporated in the United States, Intel shall not be obligated to participate in the Transaction unless it is provided an opinion of counsel to the effect that the sale in connection with such Transaction is not in violation of the registration or qualification requirements of federal or applicable state securities laws in the United States, or, if Intel is not provided with such an opinion, the Company shall indemnify Intel for any violation. |
(vii) | Other Agreements. Intel shall not be required to amend, extend or terminate any contractual or other relationship with the Company, the acquirer or their respective affiliates. |
(viii) | Covenant Not to Compete. Intel shall not be required to agree to any covenants including without limitation any covenant not to compete or any covenant not to solicit any of the customers, employees or suppliers of any party to the Transaction. |
Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation of Orbotech to sell its shares (the “OrbotechTransaction”) pursuant to this Article 29B shall be subject to the condition that the only representations, warranties or indemnities that Orbotech shall be required to make in connection with the Orbotech Transaction are representations, warranties and indemnities concerning (i) legal ownership of the Company’s securities to be sold by Orbotech (the “Orbotech Securities”), and (ii) the corporate authority of Orbotech to convey title to the Orbotech Securities, and the ability to do so free and clear of liens, encumbrances or adverse claims (the “Orbotech Required Obligations”). The Orbotech Required Obligations shall be in the same form as those to be given by each of the other shareholders of the Company and shall be given by Orbotech on a several (but not joint) basis only. |

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Articles, any issuance of securities by the Company, and any sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance or other disposal of any of the securities of the Company (by the Company or any shareholder), or any other action (including repurchase of any shares of the Company by the Company or by any subsidiary thereof), other than any action in which the provisions of Article 29B (Bring Along) shall apply, which results in a Strategic Investor (as defined below) whether or not a shareholder of the Company, holding (together with affiliates, Permitted Transferees, or other parties acting in concert with it) more than 20% of the voting rights in the Company, is prohibited unless approved in writing in advance by the Majority Preferred Shareholders (excluding, for the purposes of such majority, any Strategic Investors and their affiliates and Permitted Transferees or other parties acting in concert with them) and on terms and conditions approved by them. Any of the transactions set forth in the forgoing sentence not so approved shall be null and void and shall not be registered in the Company’s Shareholders Register. For purpose hereof a “Strategic Investor” shall mean a corporation or other business entity whose business is related to the Company’s business and who is likely to have a business or technologic interest in the Company’s business, as distinguished from an interest for the sole purpose of a financial investment. |
CALLS
30. | A shareholder shall not be entitled to receive dividends nor to use any right a shareholder has, or receive any benefit or entitlement stated in these Articles (including without limitation, the rights set forth in Articles 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 29, 29A, 65 and 86 hereof), unless he has paid all the calls that shall be made from time to time prior to or on the date appointed for payment thereof, with respect of money unpaid on all of his shares, whether he is the sole holder or holds the shares together with another person, in addition to interest and expenses if there shall be any. |
31. | The Board may, subject to the provisions of these Articles, make calls upon the shareholders from time to time in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares, as they shall determine proper, upon the condition that there shall be given prior notice of fourteen (14) days on every call and each shareholder shall be obligated to pay the total amount requested from him, or the installment on account of the call (if there shall so be) at the times and places to be determined by the Board. |
32. | The calls for payment shall be deemed to have been requested from the date the Board shall have decided upon the calls for payment. |
33. | The joint holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay the calls for payment in full and the installment on account, in connection with such calls. |
34. | If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid the holders of the share or the person to whom it has been issued shall be liable to pay interest and linkage differentials upon the amount of the call or the payments on account, as determined by the Board of Directors commencing from the day appointed for the payment thereof to the time of actual payment, but the Board shall be at liberty to waiver payment of that interest, wholly or in part. |
35. | Any amount that according to the condition of issuance of a share must be paid at the time of issuance or at a fixed date, whether on account of the sum of the share or premium, shall be deemed for the purposes of these Articles to be a call of payment that was made duly and the date of payment shall be the date appointed for payment. In the event of non-payment of this amount all of the Articles herein dealing with payment of interest, expenses, forfeiture, pledge and the like and all the other Articles connected therewith, shall apply, as if this sum had been duly requested and notice had been given, as aforesaid. |
- 27 -
36. | The Board may make arrangements at the time of issue of shares for a difference between the holders with respect to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment, and the rate of interest. |
37. | The Board may, if it thinks fit, receive from any shareholder willing to pay in advance all of the monies or a part thereof that shall be due on account of his shares, in addition to any amounts or a part thereof that shall be due on account of his shares, in addition to any amounts that the payment in fact has been requested and they shall be permitted to pay him interest at the rate the Board and shareholders shall agree upon, for the amounts paid in advance as aforesaid, or upon the part thereof which is in excess of the amounts whose payment was at the time requested on account of his shares in connection with which the payments have been made in advance, in addition to paying dividends that will be paid for that part of the share which has been paid in advance. The Board of Directors may at any time repay any amount so advanced without premium or penalty by giving such shareholder seven days’ prior notice in writing. Nothing in this Article 37 shall derogate from the right of the Board of Directors to make any call before or after receipt by the Company of any such advance. |
FORFEITURE OF SHARES
38. | If a shareholder fails to pay any call or installment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Board may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of such call or installment remains unpaid, serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or installment as is unpaid, together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses that were incurred as a result of such non-payment. |
39. | The notice shall name a further day, not earlier than the expiration of seven days from the date of the notice, on or before which the amount of the call or installment or a part thereof is to be made together with interest and any expenses incurred as a result of such non-payment. The notice shall also state the place the payment is to be made and that in the event of non-payment, at or before the time appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited. |
40. | If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to that effect. In such event, the provisions of Section 181 of the Companies Law shall apply, and the shares so forfeited shall be “dormant shares” as provided for therein. The forfeiture shall include those dividends that were declared but not yet distributed, with respect to the forfeited shares. |
41. | A share so forfeited shall be deemed to be the property of the Company and can be sold or otherwise disposed of, on such terms and in such manner as the Board thinks fit, subject to applicable law. Such shares shall not be deemed, for the purposes of these Articles, to comprise part of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, and shall be disregarded for the purposes of calculations based thereon. At any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be canceled on such terms as the Board thinks fit. |
- 28 -
42. | A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a shareholder in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall notwithstanding remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which, at the date of forfeiture, were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company receives payment in full of all moneys that, at the date of forfeiture, were presently payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares (including interest and expenses). |
43. | Without derogating from Article 30 above, the forfeiture of a share shall cause, at the time of forfeiture, the cancellation of all rights in the Company or any claim or demand against it with respect to that share and the other rights and obligations between the share owner and the Company accompanying the share, except for those rights and obligations not included in such a cancellation according to these Articles or that the Companies Law imposes upon former shareholders. |
44. | The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value amount of the share, or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified. |
MODIFICATION OF CAPITAL
45. | Subject to the provisions of Article 12 above and to any applicable law, the Company may, from time to time, by resolution duly adopted according to these Articles: |
(a) | consolidate and divide all or any of its issued or unissued share capital into shares of larger nominal value than its existing shares; |

(c) | by subdivision of its existing shares, or any of them, divide the whole, or any part, of its share capital into shares of smaller amounts than is fixed by the Memorandum of Association in a manner that with respect to the shares created as a result of the division it will be possible within the resolution of division to grant to one or more shares a preferable right or advantage with respect to dividend, capital, voting or otherwise over the remaining share or other similar shares; |
(d) | reduce its share capital and any fund reserved for capital redemption in the manner that it shall deem to be correct. |
INCREASE OF SHARE CAPITAL
46. | Subject to the provisions of Article 12 above and to any applicable law, the Company shall be permitted from time to time, by resolution duly adopted according to these Articles, to increase its share capital – whether or not all its shares have been issued, or whether the shares issued have been paid in full – by creation of new shares. This new capital shall be in such an amount, divided into shares in such amounts and have such preferable or deferred or other special rights (subject always to the special rights conferred upon an existing class of share), subject to any condition and restrictions with respect to dividends, return of capital, voting or otherwise, all as shall be directed by the general meeting in its resolution sanctioning the increase of the share capital. |
- 29 -
47. | Subject to any decision to the contrary in the resolution sanctioning the increase in share capital, pursuant to these Articles, the new share capital shall be deemed to be part of the original share capital of the Company and shall be subject to the same provisions with reference to payment of calls, liens, title, forfeiture, transfer and otherwise as apply to the original share capital. |

83. | SEAL, STAMP AND SIGNATURES |

86. | DIVIDEND |
Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law and these Articles, including without limitation the provisions of Articles 7, 8 and 12 and subject to any rights or conditions of Preferred Shares and other rights and conditions attached at that time to any share in the capital of the Company granting preferential, special or deferred rights or not granting any rights with respect to dividends, the profits of the Company shall be distributable to the shareholders of the Company according to the proportion of the nominal value paid up or credited as paid up on account of the shares held by them at the date so appointed by the Company, without regard to the premium paid in excess of the nominal value. A distribution, setting aside or declaration of dividend requires a decision of the Board of Directors. |
The Board of Directors may issue any share upon the condition that a dividend shall be paid at a certain date or that a portion of the declared dividend for a certain period shall be paid, or that the period for which a dividend shall be paid shall commence at a certain date, or a similar condition, all as decided by the Board of Directors. In every such case – subject to the provision mentioned in the beginning of this article – the dividend shall be paid in respect of such a share in accordance with such a condition. |
- 40 -
87. | Subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, at the time of declaration of a dividend the Board of Directors may decide that such a dividend shall be paid in part or in whole, by way of distribution of certain properties, especially by way of distribution of fully paid up shares or debentures or debenture stock of the Company, or by way of distribution of fully paid up shares or debentures or debenture stock of any other Company or in one or more of the aforesaid ways. For purposes of any such distribution, the outstanding Preferred Shares shall be deemed to have been converted into Ordinary Shares as of the time appointed by the Board of Directors for the purpose of determining entitlement to participate in such distribution. |
88. | Any dividends payable on shares which are not fully paid up, will be first applied to any unpaid amount on such shares even if such payments are not yet due, pursuant to the terms of issuance or as provided in these Articles, and any excess will be distributed to the holder of such shares as set forth herein. |
89. | The Board of Directors may put a lien on any dividend on which the Company has a charge, and it may use it to pay any debts, obligations or commitments with respect to which the charge exists. |
90. | A transfer of shares shall not transfer the right to a dividend which has been declared after the transfer but before the registration of the transfer. The person registered in the register as a shareholder on the date appointed by the company for that purpose shall be the one entitled to receive a dividend. |
91. | Reserved. |
92. | A notice of the declaration of a dividend, whether an interim dividend or otherwise, shall be given to the shareholders registered in the register, in the manner provided for in these Articles. |
93. | If no other provision is given, the dividend may be paid by check or payment order to be mailed to the registered address of a shareholder or person entitled thereto in the register or, in the case of registered joint owners, to the addresses of one of the joint owners as registered in the register. Every such check shall be made out to the person it is sent to. The receipt of the person who, on the date of declaration of dividend, is registered as the holder of any share or, in the case of joint holders, of one of the joint holders, shall serve as a release with respect to payments made in connection with that share. |
94. | (a) | Subject to Article 12 above, if at any time the share capital shall be divided into different classes of shares, the distribution of fully paid up shares, from funds pursuant to Article 95 below, shall be made in one of the two following manners as to be decided upon by the Board: |
(i) | In such a manner so that all the holders of a share entitled to fully paid up shares shall receive one uniform class of shares; or |
- 41 -
(ii) | such In manner so that each holder of shares entitled to fully paid up shares as aforesaid shall receive shares of the class of shares held by him and entitling him to fully paid up shares, as aforesaid. |
(b) | In order to give effect to any resolution in connection with the distribution of dividends, or distribution of property, fully paid-up shares or debentures, the Board of Directors may resolve any difficulty that shall arise with distribution as it shall deem necessary, especially to issue certificates for fractional shares and to determine the value of certain property for purposes of distribution, and to decide that payment in cash shall be made to the shareholder on the basis of the value decided for that purpose, or that fractions the value of which is less than one New Israeli Shekel shall not be taken into account for the purpose of coordinating the rights of all the parties. The Board of Directors shall be permitted, in this regard, to grant cash or property to trustees in escrow for the benefit of persons entitled thereto, as the Board shall see beneficial. Wherever required, an agreement shall be submitted to the registrar of companies and the Board may appoint a person to execute such an agreement in the name of the persons entitled to a dividend, property, fully paid up shares or debentures as shares or debentures as aforesaid, and such an appointment shall be valid. |
(c) | The Company shall not be obligated to pay interest on a dividend. |
(d) | The Board of Directors may, with respect to all dividends not collected within one year after their declaration, invest or use them in another way for the benefit of the Company, until they shall be demanded. The Company shall not pay interest for dividends or interest not collected. |
95. | FUNDS |
The Board may set aside from the profits of the Company the sums it deems proper, as a reserve fund or reserve funds for extraordinary uses, or for preferred dividends or equalization of dividends or other funds or for the purpose of correcting, bettering or retaining any property of the Company and for those other purposes which shall, in the absolute discretion of the Board of Directors, be beneficial to the Company and it may invest the various sums so invested in such investments as it finds proper, and from time to time deal with such investments, change or transfer them, in part or in whole, for the benefit of the Company. The Board of Directors may, as well, divide any reserve liability fund to preferred funds as it shall deem proper, transfer moneys from fund to fund and use every fund or any part thereof in the business of the Company, without being required to keep such sums separate from the rest of the Company’s property. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, also transfer, to the next year, profits out of such sums which are, in its absolute discretion, beneficial to the Company. Generally the Board of Directors may create funds as it deems necessary, either those resulting from profits of the Company or from re-evaluation of property, or from premiums paid for shares or from any other source, and to use them in its discretion as it deems fit insofar as that in the creation of such funds, the changes or uses do not exceed the provisions of the Companies Law or accepted accounting principles. |
96. | All premiums received from the issue of shares shall be capital funds and they shall be treated for every purpose as capital and not as profits distributable as dividends. The Board of Directors may organize a reserve capital liability account and transfer, from time to time, all such premiums to the reserve capital liability account or use such premiums and monies to cover depreciation or doubtful loss. All losses from sale of investments or other property of the Company shall be debited from other funds of the Company. The Board of Directors may use any monies credited to the capital reserve liability account in any manner that these Articles or the Companies Law permits. |
- 42 -
97. | Any amounts transferred and credited to the account of income and expense fund or general reserve liability account or capital liability reserve account, may, until otherwise used in accordance with these Articles, be invested together with such other monies of the Company in the day to day business of the Company, without having to differentiate between these investments and the investment of the monies of the Company. |
98. | ACCOUNTS AND AUDIT |
The Board shall cause correct accounts to be kept: |
(a) | of the assets and liabilities; |
(b) | of any amount of money received or expended by the Company and the xxxxxx for which such sum of money is expended or received; and |
(c) | of all purchases and sales made by the Company. |
99. | The account books shall be kept in the Office or at such other place as the Board deems fit and they shall also be open for inspection by the directors. |
100. | The Board of Directors shall determine from time to time, in any specific case or type of case, or generally, whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company, or any of them, shall be open for inspection by the shareholders, and no shareholder, not being a director, shall have any right of inspecting any account book or document of the Company except as conferred by law or authorized by the Board of Directors or by the Company in a general meeting. |
101. | Not less than once a year, the Board shall submit before the Company at the Annual General Meeting a profit and loss account for the period after the previous account, and if it is the first account for the period after registration of the Company, it shall be prepared as of a date not more than nine months before the date of the meeting and in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Companies Law, and the Board shall submit a balance sheet that is correct as of the date of the profit and loss account. To the balance sheet shall be attached a report of the auditor and it shall be accompanied by a report from the Board with respect to the situation of the Company business and the amount they propose as a dividend and the amount (if any) that they propose be set aside for the fund accounts. |
102. | Auditors shall be appointed and their function shall be set out in accordance with the Companies Law. |
- 43 -

The Investors Listed on Schedule A of the Share Purchase Agreement (as defined herein) |
|
|
Ladies and Gentlemen, |
Re: Negevtech Ltd.
We have acted as counsel to Negevtech Ltd., a company limited by shares, formed and existing under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), in connection with the Series A1 Preferred Share Purchase Agreement dated July 20, 2007 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and yourselves and all the Schedules, Exhibits and ancillary documents related thereto to which the Company is a party (the “Transaction Documents”). Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meaning ascribed to them in the Transaction Documents.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined such documents and matters of law as we considered necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion, including, without limitations, the Transaction Documents and the current Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association of the Company. As to matters of fact material to the opinions expressed herein, we have relied (without independent investigation) upon the representations by the Company in the Transaction Documents and on representations or certificates of, or communications with directors, officers, employees or representatives of the Company and certain public officials. Except as expressly set forth in this opinion, we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts. Apart from an examination of the public records of the Israeli Registrar of Companies, we have not examined any records of any court, administrative tribunal or other similar entity in connection with our opinions expressed herein. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of any fact, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of any fact should be drawn from our representation of the Company or the rendering of the opinion set forth below.
In rendering this opinion, we have examined originals or copies of documents, corporate records and other writings that we consider relevant for the purposes of this opinion. In such examination, we have assumed that the signatures on documents and instruments examined by us are authentic, that each is what it purports to be, and that all documents and instruments submitted to us as copies or facsimiles conform with the originals, which facts we have not independently verified.
In making our examination of documents, we have further assumed that (i) each party to such documents (other than the Company in connection with the Transaction Documents) had the power, legal competence and capacity to enter into and perform all of such party’s obligations thereunder, (ii) each party to such documents (other than the Company in connection with the Transaction Documents) has duly authorized, executed and delivered such documents, (iii) each of such documents is enforceable against and binding upon the parties thereto (other than the Transaction Documents against the Company), and (iv) there is no fact or circumstance relating to you or your business that might prevent you from enforcing any of the rights provided for in the Transaction Documents. We have also assumed that there are no extrinsic agreements or understandings among the parties to the Share Purchase Agreement, or contractual obligations that would modify or interpret the terms of the Transaction Documents or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.
As used in this opinion, the expression “to our knowledge” or “known to us” with reference to matters of fact refers to the current actual knowledge of attorneys within the firm principally responsible for handling current matters for the Company. Except to the extent expressly set forth herein we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of any other facts, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of any such facts should be drawn from our representation of the Company or the rendering of the opinions set forth below.
Where statements in this opinion are qualified by the term “material” or “materially,” those statements involve judgments and opinions as to the materiality or lack of materiality of any matter to the Company’s business, assets, results of operations or financial condition that are entirely those of the Company and its officers, after having been advised by us as to the legal effect and consequences of such matters.
We express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of Israel. We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply, and no opinion to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 1 below, we have relied exclusively upon the Certificate of Incorporation and Registration as a Private Company issued by the Registrar of Companies dated 22.12.91 and upon documents filed and held on record with the Registrar of Companies.
In rendering the opinion in paragraph 3 and 4(ii) below, we have relied, inter alia, on your representations in Section 3 of the Share Purchase Agreement.
In rendering the opinion in paragraph 4 relating to violations of laws, rules or regulations of the State of Israel applicable to the Company, such opinion is limited to such laws, rules or regulations that in our experience are typically applicable to a transaction of the nature contemplated by the Agreement.
In connection with the general enforceability opinion set forth below, this opinion is qualified by, and we render no opinion with respect to, the following:
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting the relief of debtors or the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or other law regarding fraudulent conveyances, preferential transfers and equitable subordination; |
|
|
· |
Our opinions are qualified by the limitations imposed by general principles of equity upon the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of provisions of the Transaction Documents, and by the effect of judicial decisions which have held that certain provisions are unenforceable when their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, would be commercially unreasonable, may establish claims of depravation of the minority or where their breach is not material; without limitation of the foregoing, we express no opinion as to potential claims or rights which may be raised by shareholders of the Company concerning the validity of the Recapitalization and/or the issuance of the Recap Ordinary Shares, the conversion thereto into Ordinary Preferred A Shares or Ordinary Preferred B Shares or the issuance of the Issued Shares, due to the nature of the Recapitalization and such issuances and conversion and their impact on the rights of the shareholders of the Company, provided that the aforesaid shall not derogate in any way from our opinion that all necessary corporate actions by the board of directors and the shareholders of the Company have been taken in order to approve the Recapitalization and such issuances and conversion are in compliance with the current Articles of Association and Memorandum of Association of the Company and the existing Shareholders Rights Agreement between the parties and do not require any consent or agreement of any Israeli government entity that has not been obtained. |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the indemnification provisions in the Transaction Documents; |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the effect of foreign laws, judicial determinations or governmental actions affecting creditors’ rights or the Company’s performance of its obligations under the Transaction Documents. |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the effect of any Israeli law or equitable principle which provides that a court may refuse to enforce, or may limit the application of, a contract or any clause thereof which the court finds to have been unconscionable at the time it was made or contrary to public policy; |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of provisions of the Transaction Documents expressly or by implication waiving broadly or vaguely stated rights or unknown future rights, or waiving rights granted by law where such waivers are against public policy; |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents purporting to (a) waive rights to service of process or objections to the laying of venue or to forum in connection with any litigation arising out of or pertaining to the Transaction Documents, (b) exclude conflict of law principles under Israeli law, (c) establish particular courts as the forum for the adjudication of any controversy relating to the Transaction Documents, (d) establish the laws of any particular state or jurisdiction for the adjudication of any controversy relating to the Transaction Documents, (e) establish evidentiary standards or make determinations conclusive or (f) provide for arbitration of disputes; |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the effect of judicial decisions, that may permit the introduction of extrinsic evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of the Transaction Documents; |
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provisions of the Transaction Documents providing that (a) rights or remedies are not exclusive, (b) rights or remedies may be exercised without notice, (c) every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised in addition to or with any other right or remedy, (d) the election of a particular remedy or remedies does not preclude recourse to one or more other remedies, (e) liquidated damages are to be paid upon the breach of any of the Transaction Documents or (f) the failure to exercise, or any delay in exercising, rights or remedies available under the Transaction Documents will not operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy; |
|
|
· |
We note that a requirement that provisions of the Transaction Documents may only be waived in writing may not be binding or enforceable if an oral agreement has been created modifying any such provision or an implied agreement by trade practice or course of conduct has given rise to a waiver; |
In addition to the foregoing, the opinions expressed below are specifically subject to the following qualifications and assumptions:
|
|
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to compliance with any antitrust statutes, rules or regulations; |
|
|
|
|
· |
We have assumed and express no opinion with respect to (a) the accuracy and completeness of representations and warranties of the Investors set forth in the Transaction Documents, and (b) the validity of any wire transfers, drafts or checks tendered by the Investors; |
|
|
|
|
· |
We express no opinion as to whether the members of the Company’s Board of Directors have complied with their fiduciary duties or duties of care in connection with the authorization and performance of the Recapitalization, the Share Purchase Agreement or any other of the Transaction Documents. |
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and except as set forth in the Transaction Documents or the Schedule of Exceptions thereto, we are of the opinion that:
|
|
1. |
The Company is a company limited by shares, duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State of Israel. The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as, to our knowledge, it is presently conducted. |
|
|
2. |
The Company has all the requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Transaction Documents and to perform its obligations set forth therein. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to offer, issue and sell the Issued Shares to be sold to you pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement. |
|
|
3. |
Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate actions on the part of the Company, has been executed and delivered by duly authorized officers of the Company and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. No other corporate act or proceeding on the part of the Company is necessary for the execution of the Transaction Documents and/or the fulfillment of the Company’s obligations thereunder. |
|
|
4. |
(a) The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, the issue and sale of the Issued Shares and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents will not conflict with, constitute a violation of, result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default under any applicable statute, rule or regulation to which the Company is subject, including applicable Israeli securities laws. |
(b) The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents, the issue and sale of the Issued Shares, the Recapitalization and the conversion of the Recap Ordinary Shares into Ordinary A Shares and Ordinary B Shares (the “Ordinary A/B Shares”) and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents will not conflict with, constitute a violation of, result in a breach of any provision of, or constitute a default under, (i) the current Articles of Association of the Company; (ii) those Material Agreements (as defined in Section 2.10(c) of the Share Purchase Agreement) listed as numbers 37, 38 and 39 in the list of Material Agreements referenced to Section 2.10 of the Schedule of Exceptions to the Share Purchase Agreement, and the existing Shareholders Rights Agreement; or (iii) any judgment, decree or order known to us to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound, except in relation to subsections 4(a), 4(b)(ii) and 4(b)(iii) above for such conflicts, violations, breaches or defaults that are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents. Compliance by the Company with the terms of the Transaction Documents does not require the consent or agreement of any Israeli government entity (other than the Investment Center and the Office of the Chief Scientist, both of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Labor, the approval in principle of both have been obtained, as set forth in the Schedule of Exceptions), nor does it require a filing with any Israeli government entity (other than the Registrar of Companies, the Investment Center and the Office of the Chief Scientist).
|
|
5. |
The Issued Shares being purchased by you once issued and paid for in full in accordance with the provisions of the Share Purchase Agreement and the Amended Articles, and the Ordinary A/B Shares issued to you upon conversion of the Recap Ordinary Shares, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and, to the best of our knowledge, not issued in violation of any pre-emptive rights, and, to the best of our knowledge, you will hold such shares free and clear of any liens, security interests, pledges or charges in favor of the Company, except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. Upon conversion in accordance with the Amended Articles of the Issued Shares being purchased by you when fully paid, and/or of the Ordinary A/B Shares, the Ordinary Shares into which the Issued Shares and/or the Ordinary A/B Shares are convertible will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non assessable, and, to the best of our knowledge, will not be issued in violation of any preemptive rights existing as of the date hereof. |
|
|
6. |
As of Closing (and following the Recapitalization), the authorized share capital of the Company constitutes of NIS 56,000,000 divided into (i) 30,000,000 Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 1 each, (ii) 3,500,000 Ordinary Preferred A Shares, nominal value NIS 1 each, (iii) 10,000,000 Ordinary Preferred B Shares, par value NIS 1 each, and (iv) 12,500,000 Series A1 Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 1 each. |
Based on a review of the Company’s records and shareholder register, the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company immediately prior to the Closing and the Recapitalization is 624,949 Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each, 13,144,070 Series AA Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each, 8,152,256 Series BB-1 Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each, 3,597,106 Series BB-2 Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each, 5,859,274 Series BB-3 Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each and 4,338,096 Series BB-4 Preferred Shares, nominal value NIS 0.01 each. All such issued and outstanding shares have been duly authorized, validly issued, and to the best of our knowledge, are free of any liens or encumbrances in favor of the Company, except as set forth in the Transaction Documents.
To the best of our knowledge on the basis of our review of the documents provided to us by the Company (except with respect to options granted pursuant to the Company’s share option plans and shares issued upon exercise thereof, in respect of which we have relied solely on representations made by certain officers of the Company), and except as disclosed in the Transaction Documents, there are not as of the date hereof, any outstanding or authorized subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments (including conversion or pre-emptive rights), or any other agreements of any character directly obligating the Company to issue (a) any additional shares, except that we express no opinion as to the number of shares issuable in respect of the anti-dilution rights of any of the classes of shares of the Company in connection with the Share Purchase Agreement or as a result of the issuance of the Issued Shares, provided that the aforesaid shall not derogate in any way from our opinion that all necessary corporate actions by the board of directors and the shareholders of the Company have been taken in order to approve the waiver of anti-dilution rights under the Share Purchase Agreement, in compliance with the current Articles of Association; or (b) any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or evidencing the right to subscribe for, any shares. To the best of our knowledge, except as disclosed in the Transaction Documents, the Company has not adopted or authorized any plan for the benefit of its officers, employees, or directors which requires or permits the issuance, sale, purchase, or grant of any shares of the Company’s share capital or any securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, or evidencing the right to subscribe for any such shares.
|
|
7. |
All necessary corporate proceedings have been taken to adopt the Amended Articles as they appear in Exhibit A of the Share Purchase Agreement, and such Amended Articles were validly adopted. |
|
|
8. |
Except as set forth in the Transaction Documents, we do not know of any civil, criminal or arbitration proceedings pending before any court or administrative agency to which the Company is party, nor is there in any investigation pending or threatened against the Company being handled by us. |
This opinion is rendered as of the date first written above solely for your benefit in connection with the Transaction Documents and may not be relied on by, nor may copies be delivered to, any other person without our prior written consent. Our opinion is expressly limited to the matters set forth above and we render no opinion, whether by implication or otherwise, as to any other matters relating to the Company. We assume no obligation to inform you of any facts, circumstances, events or changes in the law that may hereafter be brought to our attention that may alter, affect or modify the opinions expressed herein.
