Labor Agreements and Actions; Employee Compensation (a) Neither the Company nor the Subsidiary is bound by or subject to (and none of its assets or properties is bound by or subject to) any written or oral, express or implied, contract, commitment or arrangement with any labor union other than those provisions of general agreements between the Federation of Labor Unions (the “Histadrut”) and the Coordination Bureau of Economic Organizations which may be applicable to certain classes of employees by virtue of extension orders, and no labor union has requested or has sought to represent any of the employees, representatives or agents of the Company or the Subsidiary. There is no strike or other labor dispute involving the Company or the Subsidiary pending, or to the best knowledge of the Company, that is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor is the Company aware of any labor organization activity involving the Company or the Subsidiary. The Company is not aware that any officer or key employee, or that any group of key employees, intends to terminate their employment with the Company or the Subsidiary, nor does the Company or the Subsidiary have a present intention to terminate the employment of any of the foregoing. Schedule 2.24 sets forth the names of each of the Company’s and the Subsidiary’s employees and consultants. The Company and the Subsidiary are or at the Closing will be a party to an employment agreement with each employee of the Company and the Subsidiary, as applicable. The employment of each officer and employee of the Company or the Subsidiary is terminable at the will of the Company or the Subsidiary, subject to the payment of severance and other payments as provided by law and/or pursuant to any applicable employment agreements. The Company and the Subsidiary have complied in all material respects with all applicable laws related to employment. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.24(a) below, the Company and the Subsidiary are not parties to or bound by any currently effective employment deferred compensation agreement, bonus plan, incentive plan, profit sharing plan, retirement agreement, or other employee compensation agreement. Schedule 2.24(a) contains a list of all written and material oral promises, agreements, arrangements and understandings, with officers, directors, employees and consultants (other than attorneys and accountants) of the Company and the Subsidiary, which are presently in effect, detailing the name, title or position, annual salary/compensation (including bonuses, commissions, and deferred compensation), pensions (including those required by all applicable laws), retirement benefits, company cars, profit sharing, and any interests in any incentive compensation plan. A copy of the written (and a summary description of any material oral) agreements described in this Section 2.24 was delivered to Wellington prior to the date hereof. The severance pay to the employees of the Company and the Subsidiary is fully funded or provided for in the Financial Statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principals. All liabilities of the Company in connection with its employees (excluding illness pay and advance notice of termination) were adequately accrued in the Financial Statements and the Company is not aware of any circumstance whereby any employee might demand any claim for compensation on termination of employment beyond the amount of statutory or contractual severance pay to which such employee may be entitled. All obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary with respect to statutorily required severance payments have been fully satisfied or have been funded by contributions to appropriate insurance funds.
