be a breach of a principal condition of this agreement.

payment of any sum that it owes the lessor under this agreement, the
lessee shall pay to the lessor that amount, linked to the index, as

day when the lessee was supposed to have paid the amount), plus arrears
interest at a rate that is twice the interest rate (including fees and
expenses) charged by Bank Hapoalim, Ltd., (main Tel Aviv branch) on
authorized overdraft (hahad) accounts for nonpreferred customers, with

which the lessor is entitled, it is agreed that the lessee shall be
liable to pay to the lessor daily usage fees for every day of
delinquency in restoring the leased premises to the lessor in
accordance with the provisions of section 15 above, in an amount

to the usage fees and the lessee's obligation to pay them shall not
in any way constitute a grant of any entitlement whatsoever to the
lessee.
It is agreed that the lessor shall be entitled to compensation
agreed upon in advance in the event of the breach of any principal
condition by the lessee, in an amount equal to the rent due to the
lessor for six months of tenancy. The amount of this compensation

19. GUARANTEES
19.1 As additional security for the fulfillment of its obligations the
lessee hereby delivers to the lessor an independent bank guarantee
in the amount of NIS 122,000 (one hundred twenty-two thousand New

designated Appendix F. The amount of the bank guarantee as of the
date of the signing of the agreement is equal to the monthly rent
for five months, plus Value Added Tax.
The base index for the bank guarantee shall be 106.8 points.
The bank guarantee shall be payable to the benefit of the lessor and
shall be valid for one year and three months from the date of the
signing of this agreement. The lessee undertakes to extend its
validity as long as the lease remains in force, for an additional
year; such that the lessor shall always be the beneficiary of a bank
guarantee as stated and such that the bank guarantee will be in

two weeks before its expiration. Should the lessee fail to extend
its validity the lessor shall be entitled to cash it in.
19.2 It is agreed that the lessor shall be entitled to cash in the bank
guarantee in the event that the lessee fails to take possession of
the leased premises on the date specified in this agreement, or if
by that date the lessee shall not have met every financial liability
or has not covered all obligations and debts owed by the lessee
(both to the lessor and to the management company), or has not
covered any damage caused it by the lessee, as well as in any case
of a violation of a principal condition of the agreement by the
lessee (and this in addition to any remedy to which the lessor is
entitled under any legal provision and under the agreement), on the
sole condition that the lessee has received written warning of the
intention to do so at least 14 days in advance.
The cashing in of the bank guarantee shall not of itself be
tantamount to cancellation of the agreement and the lessee shall be
obligated, immediately after the cashing of the guarantee, to
deliver to the lessor a new bank guarantee phrased in accordance
with Appendix F to the agreement, in the amount stated above, and
which will be in force, all in accordance with the provisions of
section 19.2 above.
19.3 The lessor shall return to the lessee the bank guarantee (or any
balance remaining after it has been cashed) no later than three
months after the end of the term of the lease, on the sole condition
that the lessee does not owe any debt or amount whatsoever to the
lessor as of that date.
19.4 In order to collect and recover any debt owed by the lessee and to
guarantee the fulfillment of every obligation incumbent upon the
lessee (including any debt or obligation of the lessee vis-a-vis the
management company), the lessor shall be
entitled to cash in any security and any guarantee, individually or
all of them or any portion thereof, and the lessee and any guarantor
shall have no right to prevent the lessor from so doing. The bank
guarantees under this agreement are autonomous and not dependent on
this agreement and in general neither the lessee nor any party that
led to the taking out of the bank guarantee shall have any right to
hinder the cashing of the bank guarantee for any cause whatsoever.
19.5 Any delay in the delivery of the securities under section 19 shall
entitle the lessor to delay the transfer of possession of the leased
premises to the lessee, but the term of the lease shall be computed
from the starting date of the lease as stipulated by the lessor and
the lessee shall owe rent (and payment to the management company)
and any liability imposed under it under this agreement as of the
starting day of the lease or the date stipulated in the agreement,
even if it has not received possession of the leased premises as
stated.
19.6 Each provision of the present section 19 is a principal condition of
this agreement, the violation of which constitutes a fundamental
breach of the agreement to which are applicable also the provisions
of section 18 above.

loss, or expense incurred by the lessor.
20.5 It is agreed that only the actual payment of any amount that the
lessee may owe the lessor or the actual redemption of a promissory
note, including rent payments, shall be considered to be an
appropriate payment. The mere delivery of promissory notes
to the lessor, under the provisions of this agreement, or their
endorsement shall not constitute any form of payment whatsoever.
20.6 The lessee affirms that it has examined with the planning and
construction authorities the plans for the project and the leased
premises and its ability to use the leased premises for the purpose
of the tenancy; and it has and will make no claims of any kind
whatsoever with regard to its ability or inability to receive a
business permit under the law.
A failure to receive a permit under the law or the voiding of the
permit shall not entitle the lessee to cancel the lease. It is

bears no responsibility vis-a-vis the lessee in anything associated
with the permit required by the lessee and related to the ability of
the lessee to make use of the leased premises.

information, document, agreement, or notification that may have been
given to the lessee by the lessor or on its behalf, if given, before
the signing of this agreement.
There shall be no validity to any obligation, condition, waiver, or
amendment to the agreement unless made in advance and in writing.
The failure to have recourse to any remedy whatsoever or any
guarantee whatsoever shall not be considered to be a waiver.

the present agreement to some other party or parties, on exclusive
condition that the rights of the lessee under this agreement not be
impaired. The lessor shall notify the lessee of this.
20.9 It is agreed that any payment that the lessee may be required to
make to the lessor shall be paid by the lessee in the offices of the
lessor, unless otherwise stipulated in this agreement.

the lessee shall coordinate the
matter with the management company and the operation of the systems

the systems and provision of services by the management company at

according to conditions to be set by the management company.

festivals, and legal holidays. The lessee takes note of the fact the
project will be closed at such times and emergency entry to it will
be possible only through an entry to be determined by the management
company.

that the lessor shall be entitled to cancel this agreement in the
