NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

ARTICLE I.

THE MERGER

Section 1.1 The Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the ICL, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub (as the target company (Chevrat Ha’Ya’ad) in the Merger) will be merged with and into the Company (as the absorbing company (HaChevra Ha’Koletet) in the Merger), whereupon the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease, with the Company surviving the Merger (the Company, as the surviving entity in the Merger, sometimes being referred to herein as the “Surviving Company”), such that following the Merger, the Surviving Company will (a) be a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, (b) continue to be governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and (c) succeed to and assume all of the rights, properties and obligations of Merger Sub and the Company in accordance with the ICL.

Section 1.2 Closing. Unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the Company and Parent, the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) will take place at 9:00 a.m., local time, at the offices of Xxxxxx, Xxx & Xxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, 0 Xxxxxxx Xx., Xxx Xxxx 0000000, Israel, on the third (3^rd) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last of the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied or (to the extent permitted) waived (other than any such

conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted) waiver of such conditions at the Closing), unless another date or place is agreed to in writing by the Company and Parent. The date on which the Closing actually takes place is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Section 1.3 Effective Time. As soon as practicable after the determination of the date on which the Closing is to take place, each of the Company and Merger Sub shall (and Parent shall cause Merger Sub to), in coordination with each other, deliver to the Companies Registrar of the Israeli Corporations Authority (the “Companies Registrar”) a notice (the “Merger Notice”) of the contemplated Merger and the proposed date on which the Companies Registrar is requested to issue a certificate evidencing the Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (the “Certificate of Merger”) after notice that the Closing has occurred is served to the Companies Registrar, which the Parties shall deliver promptly following the Closing. The Merger will become effective upon the issuance by the Companies Registrar of the Certificate of Merger in accordance with Section 323(5) of the ICL (the time at which the Merger becomes effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

Section 1.4 Effect of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in the ICL and this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, by virtue of, and simultaneously with, the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or any Company Shareholder, (a) Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the Surviving Company, (b) all the properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Company, (c) all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company, and (d) all the rights, privileges, immunities, powers and franchises of the Company (as the Surviving Company) shall continue unaffected by the Merger in accordance with the ICL.

Section 1.5 Articles of Association. Subject to Section 6.4, at the Effective Time, the articles of association of Merger Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the articles of association of the Surviving Company, until such articles of association are thereafter duly changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

Section 1.6 Officers and Directors of the Surviving Company. The Parties shall take all actions necessary so that from and after the Effective Time, the individuals designated by Parent no later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing Date shall become the officers and directors of the Surviving Company, until their respective successors have been duly elected, designated or qualified, or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the articles of association of the Surviving Company.

ARTICLE II.

TREATMENT OF SECURITIES

Section 2.1 Treatment of Securities.

(a) Treatment of Company Shares. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Parties or holders of any securities of the Company or of Merger Sub, subject to Section 2.1(d) and except as provided in Section 2.1(b), each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Company Shares to remain outstanding in accordance with Section 2.1(b)) shall be deemed to have been transferred to Parent in exchange for the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $125.00 (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), in each case, payable as provided in Section 2.2. From and after the Effective Time, (a) except as provided in Section 2.1(b), the holders of all Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including all uncertificated Company Shares represented by book-entry form (“Book-Entry Shares”) and each certificate that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, represented any such Company Shares (each, a “Certificate”)) shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration applicable to such Company Shares, and (b) the share transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all Company Shares outstanding and no further transfer of any such Company Shares shall be made on such share transfer books after the Effective Time.

(b) Company Shares held by Company, Company Subsidiary, Parent or Merger Sub. At the Effective Time, all Company Shares owned by the Company, any Company Subsidiary, Parent, Merger Sub or by any of their respective Subsidiaries or held in the Company’s treasury shall remain outstanding and no Per Share Merger Consideration or any other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Treatment of Merger Sub Share Capital. At the Effective Time, each ordinary share, par value one (1) Israeli Agora (NIS 0.01) per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically and without further action converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable ordinary share, par value NIS 0.0175 per share, of the Surviving Company and all such ordinary shares shall constitute the only outstanding share capital of the Surviving Company. Each certificate evidencing ownership of such shares of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such shares of Surviving Company.

(d) Adjustment. If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for Company Shares shall occur as a result of any merger, business combination, reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including a reverse stock split) or subdivision or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any share dividend or share distribution with a record date during such period, the Per Share Merger Consideration, the Exchange Ratio and any other similarly dependent items shall be equitably adjusted, without duplication, to reflect such change; provided that nothing in this Section 2.1(d) shall be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.2 Payment for Company Shares; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Payments with respect to Company Shares (other than Section 102 Shares). On or prior to the Effective Time, Parent or Merger Sub shall (i) designate a bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as the exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”) and (ii) to the extent necessary in light of the provisions of the Withholding Tax Ruling, an information agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (the “Information Agent”) to assist in obtaining any requisite residency certificate and/or other declaration for Israeli Tax withholding purposes and/or a Valid Tax Certificate, as applicable, and, in connection therewith, shall enter into agreements with the Exchange Agent and the Information Agent in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company. The Exchange Agent shall also act as the agent for the holders of Company Shares for the purpose of receiving and holding their Certificates and Book-Entry Shares and shall obtain no rights or interests in the shares represented thereby. At the Closing, Parent or Merger Sub shall initiate, or shall cause to be initiated, a wire transfer to deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, cash in immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of Per Share Merger Consideration (other than consideration to be paid with respect to Section 102 Shares, which payment shall be substantially concurrently transferred directly to the 102 Trustee) (the “Exchange Fund”), in each case, for the sole benefit of the holders of Company Shares (other than the holders of Section 102 Shares), which funds shall be deposited with the Exchange Agent in any event within two (2) Business Days after the Effective Time. In the event that the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to pay the aggregate amount of all Per Share Merger Consideration due to the Company Shareholders (other than the holders of Section 102 Shares), Parent shall, or shall cause Merger Sub to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Exchange Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to make, and the Exchange Agent shall make, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, delivery of the Per Share Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose that is not expressly provided for in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as reasonably directed by Parent; provided, however, that no such investment or loss thereon shall relieve Parent or the Exchange Agent from making the payments required by this Agreement, including the obligation to deposit additional funds with the Exchange Agent to cover any deficiency in the Exchange Fund, nor shall it affect the amounts payable to holders of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share pursuant to this Article II. Upon release of the Exchange Fund to Parent, or Parent’s earlier request, any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Parent or the Surviving Company (at the election of Parent) which shall bear, in either case, any taxes applicable in connection with any such interest or other income.

(b) Payments with respect to Section 102 Shares. At the Closing, Parent or Merger Sub shall initiate, or shall cause to be initiated, a wire transfer to deposit the aggregate Per Share Merger Consideration payable with respect to the Section 102 Shares to the 102 Trustee, on behalf of holders of Section 102 Shares, in accordance with Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling, if obtained (the “Section 102 Share Consideration”), which funds shall be deposited with the 102 trustee in any event within two (2) Business Days after the Effective Time. The Section 102 Share Consideration shall be held in trust by the 102 Trustee pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling, if obtained, and shall be released by the 102 Trustee, together with any interest earned thereon by virtue of the investment of such amounts by the 102 Trustee, in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 102 and the Options Tax Ruling, if obtained.

(c) Procedures for Surrender. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company to, cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share as of the Effective Time and whose Company Shares were exchanged pursuant to Section 2.1 into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration (i) a letter of transmittal, which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificate shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, to the Exchange Agent and shall be in such customary form as Parent may reasonably specify and (ii) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share in exchange for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1, and (iii) a declaration and/or Valid Tax Certificate (or such other forms as are required under any applicable Tax Law) in which the beneficial owner of a Company Share provides certain information necessary for Parent or the Exchange Agent or the Information Agent, as applicable, to determine whether any amounts need to be withheld from the consideration payable to such beneficial owner hereunder pursuant to the terms of the Ordinance (in each case, subject to the terms of the Withholding Tax Ruling, if obtained, the Code, or any provision of applicable Law). Subject to the Withholding Tax Ruling, upon surrender of a Certificate (or an affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal and declaration for Tax withholding purposes and/or a Valid Tax Certificate (or such other forms as are required under any applicable Tax Law), in each case, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the respective instructions thereto, Parent shall pay or cause the Exchange Agent to pay to the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share in exchange therefor the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Article II for each Company Share formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, promptly (subject to the delay of up to three hundred sixty-five days contemplated by Section 2.4) following the later to occur of (x) the Effective Time or (y) the Exchange Agent’s receipt of such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share and Valid Tax Certificate, and the Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall be forthwith cancelled. The Exchange Agent shall accept such Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.2(e)) or Book-Entry Share upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Agent may impose to effect an orderly exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. If payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition precedent of payment that (A) the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and (B) the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Company that such Tax either has been paid or is not required to be paid. Payment of the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration with respect to a Book-Entry Share shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Share is registered. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2, each Certificate and Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Article II, without interest thereon.

(d) Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Shares. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books or ledger of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares on the records of the Company. From and after the Effective Time, the holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to the Company Shares represented thereby except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, a Certificate or Book-Entry Share is presented to the Surviving Company for any reason, it shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Agreement.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund; No Liability. Unless otherwise determined in the Withholding Tax Ruling, at any time following twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, Parent shall be entitled to require the Exchange Agent to deliver to it any funds (including any interest received with respect thereto) remaining in the Exchange Fund that have not been disbursed, or for which disbursement is pending subject only to the Exchange Agent’s routine administrative procedures, to holders of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share, and thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look only to the Surviving Company and Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws) as general creditors thereof with respect to the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration, payable upon due surrender of their Certificate or Book-Entry Share and compliance with the procedures in Section 2.2(b) (with Parent acting as the Exchange Agent), without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Company, Parent, Merger Sub, or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any holder of a Certificate or Book-Entry Share for any Per Share Merger Consideration, dividends, or other amounts properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar applicable Law.

(f) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Parent shall issue or cause the Exchange Agent to issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof (such affidavit to be in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent and the Exchange Agent), the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof; provided, however, that Parent or the Exchange Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate to deliver a bond in such reasonable and customary amount as Parent or the Exchange Agent may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent, Merger Sub or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

Section 2.3 Treatment of Company Equity Awards and Company ESPP.

(a) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each option to purchase Company Shares granted by the Company (a “Company Option”) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the holder of such Company Option or any other Person, will be cancelled and converted at the Effective Time into the right to receive from the Surviving Company an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of Company Shares subject to

such Company Option, and (y) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the applicable per share exercise price under such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of the Effective Time with a per share exercise price that is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration, if any, will, as of the Effective Time, be canceled without the payment of any consideration therefor.

(b) Cashed-Out Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and either (i) has fully vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in accordance with its terms as in effect on the date of this Agreement, but has not been settled in Company Shares prior to the Effective Time or (ii) is held by a member of the Company Board of Directors that is not an employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary (whether vested or unvested) (each, a “Cashed-Out Company RSU”), shall without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, the holder of such Company RSU or any other Person, be canceled and converted at the Effective Time into the right of the holder to receive from the Surviving Company immediately following the Effective Time an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company RSU, and (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration.

(c) Assumed Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and is not a Cashed-Out Company RSU will be assumed by Guarantor and converted automatically at the Effective Time into a restricted stock unit covering common shares of Guarantor having, except to the extent required to be modified under applicable Laws, substantially the same terms and conditions as the Company RSU, including the applicable vesting schedule and payment timing as in effect on the date of this Agreement (each, an “Assumed RSU”), except that (i) each such Assumed RSU will entitle the holder, upon settlement, to that number of whole common shares of Guarantor equal to the product of (A) the number of Company Shares that were issuable with regard to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) a fraction (such ratio, the “Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is the Per Share Merger Consideration and the denominator of which is the volume weighted average price for a common share of Guarantor on NASDAQ, calculated to four decimal places and determined without regard to after-hours trading or any other trading outside of the regular trading session trading hours, for the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the third complete trading day prior to (and excluding) the Closing Date, as reported by Bloomberg, L.P., and rounding such product down to the nearest whole number of common shares of Guarantor, and (ii) all references to the “Company” in the applicable Company Equity Plans and the Company RSU award agreements will be references to Guarantor.

(d) Assumed Company PSUs. At the Effective Time, the level at which the performance goals are satisfied with respect to each Company PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company Board of Directors and approved by the Company Board of Directors in accordance with its terms, which number shall equal the greater of (i) the target number of Company PSUs set forth in the applicable Company PSU grant notice and (ii) such number determined based on the Company’s actual achievement of the applicable performance goals as of the Closing Date (determined in accordance with the applicable Company PSU award agreement) and as reasonably agreed to by Parent (such final amount, the “Performance Satisfied PSUs”). The resulting Performance

Satisfied PSUs shall be assumed by Guarantor and converted automatically at the Effective Time into a restricted stock unit covering common shares of Guarantor having, except to the extent required to be modified under applicable Laws, substantially the same terms and conditions as the Company PSU, other than the performance goals, including the applicable time-based vesting schedule as in effect on the date of this Agreement (each, an “Assumed PSU”), except that (A) each such Assumed PSU shall entitle the holder, upon settlement, to that number of whole common shares of Guarantor equal to the product of (x) the number of Company Shares that were issuable with regard to the Performance Satisfied PSUs, multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and (B) all references to the “Company” in the applicable Company Equity Plans and the Company PSU award agreements shall be references to Guarantor.

(e) Company ESPP. With respect to the Company ESPP, the Company will take all actions reasonably necessary to provide that:

(i) on a date determined by the Company Board of Directors that is no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the outstanding “Offering Period” (as defined in the Company ESPP) that is in progress on such date shall terminate and be the final Offering Period under the Company ESPP;

(ii) the accumulated payroll deductions of each participant under the Company ESPP will be used to purchase Company Shares on the earlier of (x) the scheduled purchase date for the final Offering Period and (y) the date that is not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Time (with any participant payroll contributions not applied to the purchase of shares returned to the participant) (the “Final Purchase Date”); and

(iii) the Company ESPP shall terminate as of immediately prior to the Effective Time. Any Company Shares acquired under the Company ESPP prior to or on the Final Purchase Date will be treated as outstanding Company Shares for purposes of Section 2.1.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Company Option or Cashed-Out Company RSU is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the payment of the amount of cash with respect thereto shall be delayed and paid in accordance with the timing requirements of the definitive grant agreement related to such award, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(g) Parties’ Obligations. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company, Merger Sub, Guarantor and Parent will take all actions and adopt such resolutions as may be required to provide for the treatment of the Company Equity Awards and outstanding purchase rights under the Company ESPP in the manner contemplated by this Section 2.3.

(h) Parent’s Obligations.

Subject to the receipt of the Options Tax Ruling, Guarantor shall use all reasonable commercial efforts in order to maintain the tax beneficial treatment of the Assumed RSUs and Assumed PSUs which are Section 102 Awards pursuant to Section 102(b)(3) of the Ordinance. Guarantor shall use reasonable best efforts to keep such Form S-8 effective for as long as the Assumed RSUs and Assumed PSUs remain outstanding.

(j) After the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Equity Award or purchase right under the Company ESPP will have any right to acquire any Company Shares.

Section 2.4 Withholding. Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Company, the 102 Trustee, the Exchange Agent and any other third-party paying agent (each a “Payor”) shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from any consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, any amounts that Parent or (if the Withholding Tax Ruling

imposes responsibility for withholding solely on the Exchange Agent) the Exchange Agent reasonably determine are required to be withheld or deducted with respect to such consideration under the Withholding Tax Ruling and the Options Tax Ruling, if obtained, the Code, the Ordinance or any applicable provisions of Israeli Tax Law or any applicable provision of non-Israeli Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement relating to the timing of payment of consideration, and subject to any other provision to the contrary in the Withholding Tax Ruling, with respect to the payment of consideration that would be subject to withholding of Israeli Taxes, the consideration otherwise payable to each Company Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement (other than holders of Section 102 Shares) shall, unless Parent or Exchange Agent is otherwise instructed explicitly by the ITA, be retained by the Exchange Agent for the benefit of each such Company Shareholder for a period of up to three hundred and sixty five (365) days from Closing (the “Withholding Drop Date”), and until the Withholding Drop Date no Payor shall make any such payments to any Company Shareholder and withhold any amounts for Israeli Taxes from the payment deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, except as provided below and during which time each Company Shareholder may seek to obtain a Valid Tax Certificate. If a Company Shareholder delivers, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a declaration for Israeli Tax withholding purposes or a Valid Tax Certificate to a Payor (or such other forms as are required under any applicable Tax Law) all in accordance with Section 2.2(c)(iii), then the Per Share Merger Consideration due to such Company Shareholder shall be paid to such Company Shareholder, subject to any non-Israeli withholding which is applicable to the payment, and the deduction and withholding of any Israeli Taxes shall be made only in accordance with the declaration for Israeli Tax withholding purposes or the Valid Tax Certificate. Subject to the Withholding Tax Ruling, if any Company Shareholder (i) does not provide Payor with a declaration for Israeli Tax withholding purposes or a Valid Tax Certificate (or such other forms as are required under any applicable Tax Law), by no later than three (3) Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request with Payor to release such Person’s applicable consideration prior to the Withholding Drop Date but fails to submit a declaration for Israeli Tax withholding purposes or a Valid Tax Certificate (or such other forms as are required under any applicable Tax Law) at or before such time, then the amount to be withheld from such consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as reasonably determined by the Parent or (if the Withholding Tax Ruling imposes responsibility for withholding solely on the Exchange Agent) by the Exchange Agent. If so provided in the Withholding Tax Ruling, any withholding made in New Israeli Shekels with respect to payments made hereunder in Dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate on the date the payment is actually made to any recipient and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable payment recipient and deducted from payments to be made to such payment recipient.

Section 2.5 Further Assurances. At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Company will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company, Merger Sub or otherwise, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the Company or Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Company any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Company as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

(a) From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, and except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, the Company shall not and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and its and their directors and officers not to, and the Company shall instruct its and their Representatives to not to on behalf of the Company: (i) solicit or initiate or knowingly facilitate or encourage any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or would be reasonably expected to lead to a Competing Proposal or engage in any discussions or negotiations with respect thereto (other than, solely in response to an inquiry not solicited in breach of this Section 5.2, solely informing the Person making such inquiry of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 5.2; provided, however, that the Company and its Representatives may communicate in writing with a Person making a Competing Proposal (and its Representatives) solely to clarify (and not negotiate) the material terms of such Competing Proposal for the purpose of the Company Board of Directors informing itself about the terms of such Competing Proposal); (ii) provide any information regarding, cooperate with, or provide access to the properties, personnel, books and records of, the Company or any Company Subsidiary to any Person or “group” (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) in connection with or under circumstances that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, except as permitted by Section 5.2(c) below; (iii) approve endorse, or publicly recommend, or propose publicly to approve, endorse or recommend, any Competing Proposal; (iv) withdraw or change or qualify in a manner adverse to Parent, the Company Board Recommendation or fail to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement when disseminated to the Company Shareholders; (v) fail to publicly reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation within five (5) Business Days after receipt of a written request by Parent following a Competing Proposal (or modification to the financial terms thereof or modification of any other material term thereof) becoming publicly known, provided that the Company and its Representatives shall have no obligation to reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation more than once with respect to any Competing Proposal (with modification to the financial terms thereof or any other material term thereof constituting a new Competing Proposal); (vi) if a tender offer or exchange offer that constitutes a Competing Proposal is commenced, fail to publicly recommend against acceptance of such tender offer or exchange offer by the Company Shareholders within ten (10) Business Days after the commencement thereof (or any modification to the financial terms thereof or any other material terms thereof); (vii) enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, merger agreement, acquisition agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, alliance agreement, partnership agreement or other similar Contract or understanding relating to any Competing Proposal (whether binding or nonbinding); or (viii) resolve or agree to do any of the foregoing (any act described in clauses (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi), this clause (viii) (to the extent related to clauses (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi)), above, a “Company Change of Recommendation”). Any violation of the restrictions contained in this Section 5.2(a) or in Section 5.2(b) by any of the Company’s Representatives shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 5.2(a) or in Section 5.2(b), respectively, by the Company. The Company agrees that neither it, nor its affiliates, will enter into any agreement with any Third Party subsequent to the date of this Agreement which would prohibit the Company or any of its affiliates from providing any information to Parent in accordance with, or otherwise complying with, this Section 5.2.

(b) The Company shall immediately cease and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries and instruct its and their Representatives to promptly cease, any and all existing discussions, activities or negotiations with any Person conducted heretofore with respect to any Competing Proposal (including, if applicable, the termination within 24 hours of access to any data room established in connection therewith). Promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Company

will request that each Person (other than Parent and its Representatives) that has, prior to the date of this Agreement, executed a confidentiality agreement in connection with its consideration of a Competing Proposal which has not terminated or expired pursuant to its terms to promptly return or destroy (and certify such destruction in writing) all non-public information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries prior to the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 5.2(a), if, after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Company Shareholder Approval being obtained, the Company receives an unsolicited bona fide written Competing Proposal and the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or would reasonably be likely to lead to a Superior Proposal, then in either event the Company and its Representatives may: (i) furnish information (including nonpublic information) to the Person making such Competing Proposal, its Representatives and its potential sources of financing, if, and only if, prior to so furnishing such information, the Company receives (or has previously received) from such Person an executed Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement covering such Persons; and (ii) engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person, its Representatives and its potential sources of financing with respect to such Competing Proposal and any changes thereto, including by making counterproposals thereto. The Company will promptly provide to Parent any material nonpublic information concerning the Company or the Company Subsidiaries provided to any other Person in connection with any Competing Proposal that was not previously provided to Parent.

(d) The Company shall notify Parent promptly (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days) after, to the knowledge of the Company, the receipt of any Competing Proposal or any inquiry, indication, request or offer that would be reasonably expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, together with the identity of the Person making any such Competing Proposal inquiry, indication, request or offer, and provide Parent with a copy of the Competing Proposal, inquiry, indication, request or offer (or if the Competing Proposal, inquiry, indication, request or offer is not in writing, a written description of the material terms thereof), together with any material documents and proposed material terms relating to the financing thereof, if any. The Company shall (i) keep Parent reasonably informed on a prompt basis of the status of discussions relating to any Competing Proposal inquiry, indication, request or offer, and (ii) promptly provide to Parent written notice containing copies of correspondence, documents and other written materials sent by or provided to the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of their Representatives that describes any financial or other material terms or conditions of such Competing Proposal, inquiry, indication, request or offer (together with written summaries of any additional or modified material terms or conditions conveyed orally to or by the Company).

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 to the contrary, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company Board of Directors may make a Company Change of Recommendation in response to a Company Intervening Event if, and only if, (i) the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor that the failure to make a Company Change of Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the members of the Company Board of Directors to the Company Shareholders under Israeli Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to

such fiduciary duties, the Company Board of Directors may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Law); provided, further, that the actions of the Company Board of Directors solely in making such determination and such determination shall not constitute a Company Change of Recommendation or a violation of this Section 5.2, (ii) the Company has provided Parent with a written notice (a “Company Intervening Event Notice”) of such determination, stating that such notice constitutes a Company Intervening Event Notice, providing a description of the material facts and circumstances giving rise to the Company Intervening Event, and that the Company Board of Directors intends to effect a Company Change of Recommendation (provided, however, that the sole action of giving such Company Intervening Event Notice and of the Company Board of Directors in authorizing and disclosing (to the extent legally required) such Company Intervening Event Notice shall not constitute a Company Change of Recommendation or a violation of this Section 5.2) and (iii) during the period commencing on the date of Parent’s receipt of the Company Intervening Event Notice and ending at 5:00 p.m. California time on date that is the fourth (4th) Business Day thereafter, has made its Representatives reasonably available for the purpose of engaging in discussions and negotiations with Parent and its Representatives (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) regarding a possible amendment to this Agreement and has considered in good faith any proposals made by Parent, and after taking account of Parent’s proposals, if any, the Company Board of Directors again makes the determination set forth in Section 5.2(e)(i).

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 to the contrary, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, the Company Board of Directors may in response to its receipt after the date of this Agreement of a bona fide written Competing Proposal, make a Company Change of Recommendation or terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive written agreement providing for such Competing Proposal pursuant to Section 8.1(h) if, and only if, (i) the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor that (x) such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal, after giving effect to all of the adjustments to the terms of this Agreement which may have been offered by Parent prior to the determination by the Company Board of Directors, and (y) the failure to make such Company Change of Recommendation or to terminate this Agreement would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the members of the Company Board of Directors to the Company Shareholders under Israeli Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary duties, the Company Board of Directors may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Law); provided, further, that the actions of the Company Board of Directors solely in making such determination and such determination shall not constitute a Company Change of Recommendation, a violation of this Section 5.2 or a termination of this Agreement, (ii) the Company has provided Parent with a written notice (a “Company Notice”) of such determination, stating that such notice constitutes a Company Notice, stating whether the Company Board of Directors intends to effect a Company Change of Recommendation or the Company intends to terminate this Agreement, and describing in reasonable detail the reasons for such Company Change of Recommendation or termination (provided, however, that the sole action of giving such Company Notice and of the Company Board of Directors in authorizing and disclosing (to the extent legally required) such Company Notice shall not constitute a Company Change of Recommendation, a violation of this Section 5.2 or a termination of this Agreement), (iii) the Company has provided Parent with the material agreements and documents relating to such

Competing Proposal (including the financing thereof), and (iv) during the period commencing on the date of Parent’s receipt of the Company Notice and ending at 5:00 p.m. California time on date that is the fourth (4^th) Business Day thereafter, the Company has made its Representatives reasonably available for the purpose of engaging in discussions and negotiations with Parent and its Representatives (to the extent Parent desired to negotiate) regarding a possible amendment to this Agreement and has considered in good faith any written proposals made by Parent that if accepted by the Company would be binding upon Parent, and after taking account of Parent’s proposals, if any, the Company Board of Directors again makes the determination set forth in Section 5.2(f)(i). Following receipt by Parent of a Company Notice, if the financial or other material terms of such Competing Proposal are amended prior to the Company Board of Directors making a Company Change of Recommendation or terminating this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the Company will deliver to Parent a new Company Notice prior to the Company Board of Directors making a Company Change of Recommendation or terminating this Agreement in accordance with the foregoing sentence, provided that the period of negotiation provided in Section 5.2(f)(iv) shall instead end at 5:00 p.m. local time in California on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately following Parent’s receipt of such Company Notice, but no such new Company Notice shall shorten the original five (5) Business Day notice period.

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall prohibit the Company or the Company Board of Directors from (i) disclosing to the Company Shareholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 or 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any communication required under Israeli Law with substantially similar content) or a position contemplated by Section 329 of the ICL, or (ii) making any disclosure to the Company Shareholders if the Company Board of Directors has reasonably determined in good faith after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties of the members of the Company Board of Directors to the Company Shareholders under Israeli Law (provided, however, that in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary duties, the Company Board of Directors may also consider and act on the basis of the fiduciary duties owed by a board of directors to the shareholders of a company under Delaware Law); provided, further, that any such disclosure referred to in clauses (i) or (ii) that relates to a Competing Proposal shall be deemed to be a Company Change of Recommendation unless (x) the Company Board of Directors expressly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation in such disclosure or (y) such disclosure is a “stop, look and listen” communication to the Company Shareholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, or any communication under Israeli Law with substantially similar content; provided, further, that this Section 5.2(g) shall not permit the Company Board of Directors to make a Company Change of Recommendation except to the extent permitted by Section 5.2(e) or Section 5.2(f).

Section 5.3 Preparation of the Proxy Statement; Company Special Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (and in any event within thirty (30) Business Days after the date of this Agreement), the Company shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Proxy Statement in preliminary form. Each of the Company and Parent shall furnish all information concerning itself, its affiliates and the holders of its shares to the other and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by such other Party in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement. The

Company shall promptly notify Parent upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement, and shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof, provide Parent with copies of all correspondence between it and its Representatives, on one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Proxy Statement received from the SEC and advise Parent of any oral comments with respect to the Proxy Statement received from the SEC. The Company shall respond as promptly as practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to mailing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, the Company shall provide Parent a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response in advance and include any such reasonable comments in the Proxy Statement, except to the extent such disclosures relate to a Competing Proposal.

(b) If, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective affiliates, is discovered by the Company or Parent that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company or Parent, should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, so that the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Parties, and the Company and Parent shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment of, or supplement to, the Proxy Statement and, to the extent required by Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the Company Shareholders. Nothing in this Section 5.3(b) shall limit the obligations of any Party under Section 5.3(a).

(c) The Company shall, in accordance with applicable Law and the Company Governing Documents, establish a record date for, duly call, publish the notice of and schedule the Company Special Meeting (the “Notice Date”) as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, the Company shall as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Proxy Statement is approved, or deemed to have been approved by the SEC for dissemination to the Company Shareholders in accordance with Rule 14a-6(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act, mail the Proxy Statement to the Company Shareholders and, unless the Company Board of Directors shall have made a Company Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.2, use its reasonable best efforts to solicit and obtain the Company Shareholder Approval. The Company shall comply with the notice requirements applicable to the Company in respect of the Company Special Meeting pursuant to the ICL and the regulations promulgated thereunder and the Articles of Association. The Company shall consult with Parent regarding the date of the Company Special Meeting, which, subject to the terms of the next sentence relating to postponement and adjournment thereof, shall be held no earlier than thirty-five (35) days, and not later than forty-five (45) days, following the Notice Date. The Company shall not include any proposals in the Proxy Statement other than those permitted by this Agreement to be considered at the Company Special Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3(c), the Company shall not adjourn, postpone or delay the Company Special Meeting without the prior consent of Parent, except that it may do so if and to the extent that: (i) there are holders of an insufficient number of Company Shares present or represented by

a proxy at the Company Special Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Company Special Meeting; (ii) the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of Company Shares to obtain the Company Shareholder Approval; (iii) such adjournment, postponement, delay or cancellation is required by applicable Law or a request from the SEC or its staff; or (iv) in the good faith judgment of the Company Board of Directors (after consultation with its outside legal advisors), the failure to adjourn, postpone or delay the Company Special Meeting would be reasonably likely to not allow sufficient time under applicable Laws for the distribution of any required or appropriate supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of Parent, (1) no single such adjournment or postponement shall be for more than five (5) Business Days and (2) in no event may the Company Special Meeting be postponed to later than the date that is fifteen (15) Business Days after the date for which the Company Special Meeting was originally scheduled. In the event that Parent or any Person listed in Section 320(c) of the ICL casts any votes in respect of the Merger, Parent shall disclose to the Company its interest in the Company Shares so voted. At the Company Special Meeting, Parent and Merger Sub shall disclose to the Company its interest in the Company Shares so voted. At the Company Special Meeting, Parent and Merger Sub shall cause any Company Shares owned by them and their affiliates (if any) to be voted in favor of the approval of the Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, the Company shall submit this Agreement for approval by at the Company Shareholders at the Company Special Meeting whether or not a Company Change of Recommendation shall have occurred or a Competing Proposal shall have been publicly announced; provided that the Proxy Statement shall include, if applicable, the disclosure of the Company Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.2.

(a) Subject to the ICL, as promptly as practicable following the date hereof, the Company and Merger Sub, as applicable, shall take the following actions within the timeframes set forth herein; provided, however, that any such actions or the timeframe for taking such action shall be subject to any amendment in the applicable provisions of the ICL (and in case of an amendment thereto, such amendment shall automatically apply so as to amend this Section 5.4(a) accordingly): (i) the Company and Merger Sub shall cause a merger proposal (in the Hebrew language) (the “Merger Proposal”) to be prepared and executed in accordance with Section 316 of the ICL; (ii) the Company and Merger Sub shall deliver the executed Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar within three (3) days from the calling of the Company Special Meeting; (iii) the Company and Merger Sub, as applicable, shall cause a copy of the Merger Proposal to be delivered to its secured creditors, if any, no later than three (3) days after the date on which the Merger Proposal is delivered to the Companies Registrar; (iv) promptly after the Company and Merger Sub, as applicable, shall have complied with the preceding sentence and with clauses (A) and (B) of this Section 5.4(a), but in any event no more than three (3) days following the date on which such notice was sent to the creditors, the Company and Merger Sub, as applicable, shall inform the Companies Registrar, in accordance with Section 317(b) of the ICL, that notice was given to their respective creditors, if any, under Section 318 of the ICL; (v) each of the Company and, if applicable, Merger Sub, shall: (A) publish a notice, with respect to subsection (x) to its creditors, stating that a Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar and that the creditors may review the Merger Proposal at the office of the Companies Registrar, the Company’s registered office or Merger Sub’s registered offices, as applicable, and at such other locations as

the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, may determine, in (x) two (2) daily Hebrew newspapers, on the day that the Merger Proposal is submitted to the Companies Registrar, and (y) in a popular newspaper in New York as may be required by applicable Law, within three (3) Business Days from the date of submitting the Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar; (B) if applicable, within four (4) Business Days from the date of submitting the Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar, send a notice by registered mail to all of the “Substantial Creditors” (as such term is defined in the Israeli Companies Regulations (Merger) 5760-2000 promulgated under the ICL) that the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, is aware of, in which it shall state that a Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar and that the creditors may review the Merger Proposal at such additional locations, if such locations were determined in the notice referred to in the immediately preceding clause (A); and (C) send to the Company’s “employees committee” (Va’ad Ovdim) or display in a prominent place at the Company’s premises a copy of the notice published in a daily Hebrew newspaper (as referred to in clause (A)(x) of this Section 5.4(a)), no later than three (3) Business Days following the day on which the Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar; (vi) not later than three (3) days after the date on which the Company Shareholder Approval is received, the Company shall (in accordance with Section 317(b) of ICL and the regulations thereunder) inform the Companies Registrar of such approval; and (vii) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the last of the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied or (to the extent permitted) waived (other than any such conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permitted) waiver of such conditions at the Closing), in accordance with the customary practice of the Companies Registrar, the Company and Merger Sub shall request that the Companies Registrar declare the Merger effective and issue the Certificate of Merger upon such date as the Company and Merger Sub shall advise the Companies Registrar.

For purposes of this Section 5.4(a), “Business Day” shall have the meaning set forth in the Israeli Companies Regulations (Merger) 5760-2000 promulgated under the ICL.

Parent will reasonably minimize any disruption to the businesses of the Company that may result from the requests for access, data and information hereunder.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 6.1 or as set forth in Section 6.2, the Company may, as it deems necessary based on the advice of its outside counsel, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided under this Section 6.1 or under Section 6.2 as either “Antitrust Counsel Only Material” or “Antitrust Restricted Material.” Antitrust Counsel Only Material and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the Company or its legal counsel. Antitrust Restricted Material and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside antitrust counsel and other outside Representatives of the recipient and employees, officers or directors of the recipient approved by the Company based on the advice of its outside counsel, and will not be disclosed by such Persons to other employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the Company or its legal counsel.

to result in the failure to be satisfied of any of the conditions to the other Party’s obligation to effect the Merger or that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impede the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.1(d) shall not cure any breach of any representation or warranty requiring disclosure of such matter prior to the date of this Agreement or otherwise limit or affect the remedies available hereunder to any Party.

(b) In connection with, and without limiting, the efforts or the obligations of the Parties under Section 6.2(a), each of Parent and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and not prohibited by the applicable Governmental Authority and subject to all applicable privileges (including the attorney client privilege), (i) cooperate and coordinate with the other in the making of Regulatory Filings (including, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and subject to the provisions of Section 6.1(b), providing copies, or portions thereof, of all such documents to the non-filing Parties prior to filing and considering all reasonable additions, deletions or changes

suggested in connection therewith) and in connection with resolving any investigation, request or other inquiry of any Governmental Authority under any applicable Law with respect to any such filing, (ii) supply the other with any information and reasonable assistance that may be required or reasonably requested in connection with the making of such Regulatory Filings, and (iii) supply, within the time allowed, any additional or supplemental information that may be required or reasonably requested by the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), the DOJ, the Israeli Competition Authority (the “ICA”), the Anti-Monopoly Bureau of the State Administration for Market Regulation in the People’s Republic of China (“SAMR”) and any Specified Antitrust Authority.

(c) As soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, and no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, the Company shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and/or accountants to prepare and file with the Investment Center an application to obtain the Investment Center Approval. Without limiting the generality of Section 6.2(a) and Section 6.2(b), each of the Company and Parent shall cause their respective Israeli counsel, advisors and accountants to coordinate all activities, and to cooperate with each other, with respect to the preparation and filing of such application and in the preparation of any written or oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Investment Center Approval. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company, Parent and Merger Sub shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all reasonable action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to obtain the Investment Center Approval, as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(d) Each of Parent and Merger Sub (and their respective affiliates, if applicable), on the one hand, and the Company (and the Company Subsidiaries, if applicable), on the other hand, shall, to the extent practicable and unless prohibited by applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Authority and subject to all applicable privileges (including the attorney client privilege), promptly inform the other of any material communication from any Governmental Authority regarding any of the Transactions in connection with any Regulatory Filings or investigations with, by or before any Governmental Authority relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, including any Actions initiated by a private party. If any Party or Subsidiary or other affiliate thereof shall receive a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Authority with respect to a Regulatory Filing, then such Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably practicable, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. In connection with and without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2(d), to the extent reasonably practicable and unless prohibited by applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Authority, the Parties will (i) give each other reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any Governmental Authority relating to the Merger or any other Transactions, (ii) give each other an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings, (iii) keep the other Party reasonably apprised with respect to any material communications with any Governmental Authority regarding the Merger or any other Transactions, (iv) cooperate in the filing of any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions or other written communications explaining or defending the Merger or any other Transactions, articulating any regulatory or competitive argument or responding to requests or objections made by any Governmental Authority, (v) provide each other with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon, and consider in good faith the views of the other with respect to, all material written communications (including applications, analyses,

presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments and opinions) with a Governmental Authority regarding the Merger or any other Transactions and (vi) provide each other (or counsel of each Party, as appropriate) with copies of all material written communications to or from any Governmental Authority relating to the Merger or any other Transactions. Any such disclosures, rights to participate or provisions of information by one Party to the other may be made on a counsel-only basis to the extent required under applicable Law and the provisions of Section 6.1(b).

(f) If any Action is instituted challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as in violation of the HSR Act or any similar Law, the Parties shall cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such Action, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to support one another in contesting and resisting any such Action, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other governmental Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, limits or restricts consummation of the Transactions, unless the Company and Parent, after good faith consultation, jointly decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests.

(g) In furtherance to and not in limitation of the foregoing, Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall use their reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all lawful actions necessary to obtain the Antitrust Approvals of the Merger or the Transactions or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods (and any extension thereof) in connection therewith in order for the Parties to consummate the Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date (as the same may be extended), including (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to, and/or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, transfer, license, disposition, or hold separate (through the establishment of a trust or otherwise) of the assets, properties, or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement as are required to be divested in order to avoid the entry of any lawful decree, judgment, injunction (permanent or preliminary), or any other lawful Order that would make the Transactions unlawful or would otherwise materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) terminating, modifying, or assigning existing relationships, Contracts, or obligations relating to any assets, properties, or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement, or (iii) changing or modifying any course of conduct regarding future operations of the assets, properties, or businesses to be acquired pursuant to this Agreement (all such actions referenced in clauses (i) through (iii), “Antitrust Remedies”); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries shall not, except as provided on Schedule 6.2(g), be obligated to, and the Company and the Company Subsidiaries shall not, without Parent’s prior written approval, propose,

negotiate, commit to, effect or undertake any Antitrust Remedies (x) that would reasonably be anticipated to have a material adverse impact on the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries taken as a whole following the Merger, (y) with respect to the Company’s Core Technology, or (z) with respect to the assets, properties or business of Parent or Parent’s Subsidiaries (other than, after the Effective Time, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries).

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.3, (i) Parent and the Company may make press releases and other public announcements concerning this Agreement or the Transactions that consist solely of information previously disclosed in all material respects in previous press releases and other public announcements made by Parent and/or the Company in compliance with this Section 6.3, (ii) Parent and the Company may make public statements in response to specific questions by the press, analysts, investors or those attending industry conferences or financial analyst conference calls, so long as any such statements consist solely of information previously disclosed in all material respects in previous press releases, public disclosures or public statements made by the Company or Parent in compliance with this Section 6.3 and do not reveal material, non-public information regarding the other Parties, this Agreement or the Transactions, (iii) the Company shall not be required to provide any review or comment to Parent regarding any statement, release or disclosure made by the Company or its Representatives that does not reveal material, non-public information regarding the Parties, this Agreement or the Transactions in response to or in connection with the receipt and existence of a Competing Proposal, the consideration of making a

Section 6.4 Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance and Indemnification.

(a) From and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) indemnify and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company or any Company Subsidiary and each Person who served as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any Company Subsidiary (collectively, together with such Persons’ heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, the “Covered Persons”) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, against any costs and expenses (including advancing attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Covered Person to the fullest extent permitted by Law), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened Action or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including acts or omissions in connection with such Persons serving as an officer, director or other fiduciary in any entity at the request or for the benefit of the Company). Without limiting the foregoing, from and after the Effective Time, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Covered Persons to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for acts or omissions occurring in connection with the process resulting in and the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions. From and after the Effective Time, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Company shall advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Action or investigation with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.4(a) in accordance with the procedures (if any) set forth in the Articles of Association, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, or other organizational or governance documents, of any Company Subsidiary, and indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement. In the event of any such Action or investigation, Parent, the Company and the Surviving Company shall cooperate with the Covered Person in the defense of any such Action or investigation.

(b) For not less than seven (7) years from and after the Effective Time, the articles of association of the Surviving Company and the Charter Documents of each Company Subsidiary shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, indemnification of and advancement of expenses to Covered Persons for periods at or prior to the Effective Time than are currently set forth in the Articles of Association and the Charter Documents of each Company Subsidiary. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Action or investigation (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) is made against any Covered Person with respect to matters subject to indemnification hereunder on or prior to the seventh anniversary of the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 6.4(b) shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such Action or investigation. Following the Effective Time, the indemnification agreements, if any, in existence on the date of this Agreement with any of the directors, officers or employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be assumed by the Surviving Company, without any further action, and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms.

(c) For not less than seven (7) years from and after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to, maintain for the benefit of the Covered Persons, an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring prior to the Effective Time (the “D&O Insurance”) that is substantially equivalent to and in any event not less favorable in the aggregate than the existing policies of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries relating to errors and omissions of directors and officers or, if substantially equivalent insurance coverage is unavailable, the best available coverage; provided, however, that the Surviving Company shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement, but in such case shall purchase as much coverage as is available for such amount. The provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied if prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time (which the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase prior to the Effective Time), which policies provide such directors and officers with coverage for an aggregate period of at least seven (7) years from and after the Effective Time with respect to claims arising from facts or events that occurred on or before the Effective Time, including in respect of the Transactions. If such prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to, maintain such policies in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) In the event that Parent or the Surviving Company (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provision shall be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

(e) The rights of each Covered Person pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Covered Person may have (including any indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses rights) under the Articles of Association (or similar documents of any Company Subsidiary), any Contract (including any indemnification agreements between the Company or a Company Subsidiary, on the one hand, and the officers and directors of the Company or any Company Subsidiary), or under applicable Law. The provisions of this Section 6.4 shall survive the Effective Time and shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to the Covered Persons (and their respective successors and assigns), it being expressly agreed that the Covered Persons (including their respective successors and assigns) shall be third party beneficiaries of, and entitled to enforce, this Section 6.4. In the event of any breach by the Surviving Company or Parent of this Section 6.4, the Surviving Company shall pay all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by Covered Persons in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 6.4 as such fees are incurred upon the written request of such Covered Person.

Section 6.5 Takeover Statutes. The Parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts (a) to take all action necessary so that no Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to the Merger or any of the other Transactions and (b) if any such Takeover Statute is or becomes applicable to any of the foregoing, to take all action necessary so that the Merger and the other Transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to eliminate or minimize the effect of such Takeover Statute on the Merger and the other Transactions.

Section 6.6 Obligations of Merger Sub. Parent shall take all action necessary to cause Merger Sub and the Surviving Company to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, including the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(c) Effective as of the Effective Time and thereafter, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or shall cause the Surviving Company to, with respect to Continuing Employees who reside in the United States, (i) ensure that no eligibility waiting periods, actively-at-work requirements or pre-existing condition limitations or exclusions shall apply with respect to such Continuing Employees under the applicable health, welfare and defined contribution retirement benefits plan of Parent or any affiliate of Parent (except to the extent applicable under Company Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time), (ii) waive any and all evidence of insurability requirements with respect to such Continuing Employees to the extent such evidence of insurability requirements were not applicable to the Continuing Employees under the Company Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time, (iii) credit each such Continuing Employee with all deductible payments, out-of-pocket or other co-payments paid by such employee under the Company Plans prior to the Closing Date during the plan year in which the Closing occurs for the purpose of determining the extent to which any such employee has satisfied his or her deductible and whether he or she has reached the out-of-pocket maximum under any health benefit plan of Parent or an affiliate of Parent for such plan year and (iv) as applicable, credit each such Continuing Employee with his or her contribution balances, if any, under the health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts and dependent care spending accounts administered under Company Plans which contributions are made during the Company Plan year in which the Closing occurs.

The Company shall include in the request for the Options Tax Ruling a request to exempt Parent, the Surviving Company, the Exchange Agent and their respective agents from any withholding obligation. If the Options Tax Ruling is not granted prior to the Closing or in accordance with the instructions of the ITA, the Company shall seek to obtain prior to the Closing an interim tax ruling confirming, among other things, that Parent and any Person acting on its behalf (including the Exchange Agent) shall be exempt from Israeli withholding Tax in relation to any payments made with respect to any Company Options, Section 102 Shares, Company RSUs or Company PSUs (whether or not subject to Section 102 of the Ordinance) to the, Exchange Agent, the 102 Trustee or the Company in connection with the Merger (the “Interim Options Tax Ruling”). To the extent that prior to the Closing an Interim Options Tax Ruling shall have been obtained, then all references in this Agreement to the Options Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such Interim Options Tax Ruling, until such time that a final definitive Options Tax Ruling is obtained.

(b) As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement but in no event later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, the Company shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and accountants to prepare and file with the ITA an application for a ruling (which shall be approved by Parent prior to its submission and which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) that: (i) with respect to holders of Company Shares that are non-Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA), (A) exempting Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, including the Per Share Merger Consideration, or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (B) clearly instructing Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be implemented, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Company Shares from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied and how to identify any such non-Israeli residents; (ii) with respect to holders of Company Shares that are Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA) (other than the Company Shares subject to Section 102 of the Ordinance) (x) exempting Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, including the Per Share Merger Consideration, or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (y) clearly instructing Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be executed, and in particular, with respect to the classes or categories of holders of the Company Shares from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied; and (iii) and with respect to holders of Company Options, Company RSUs and Company PSUs which are not Section 102 Awards, that are non-Israeli residents (as defined in the Ordinance or as will be determined by the ITA), (A) exempting Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax at the source from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, including the Per Share Merger Consideration, or clarifying that no such obligation exists, or (B) instructing Parent, the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents on how such withholding at the source is to be executed, the rate or rates of withholding to be applied and how to identify any such non-Israeli residents (the “Withholding Tax Ruling”).

(c) The text of the applications for, submissions relating to and the final text of the Interim Option Tax Ruling, the Option Tax Ruling and the Withholding Tax Ruling shall be subject to the prior written confirmation of Parent or its counsel, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company and its counsel and advisors shall not make any application to, or conduct any material negotiation with, the ITA with respect to material matters relating to the subject matter of the Options Tax Ruling and the Withholding Tax Ruling without prior coordination with Parent or its Representatives, and will enable Parent’s Representatives to participate in all discussions and meetings relating thereto. To the extent that the Parent’s representatives elect not to participate in any meeting or discussion, upon request, the Company’s Representatives shall provide a full report of the discussions held.

ARTICLE VIII.

Section 8.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger and the other Transactions may be abandoned (except as otherwise provided below, whether before or after receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval) as follows:

(a) by mutual written consent of Parent and the Company;

(b) by either the Company or Parent, at any time prior to the Effective Time, if a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a final and nonappealable Adverse Law or Order that remains in effect and that permanently restrains, permanently enjoins or otherwise permanently prohibits the consummation of the Merger; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) will not be available to any Party where failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the principal cause of, or resulted in, such Adverse Law or Order;

(c) by Parent, at any time prior to the Effective Time, if (i) there has been a breach by the Company of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, such that any condition contained in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 is not reasonably capable of being satisfied while such breach is continuing, (ii) Parent has delivered to the Company written notice of such breach and (iii) either such breach is not capable of cure in a manner sufficient to allow satisfaction

of the conditions contained in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 prior to the Outside Date or at least forty-five (45) days have elapsed since the date of delivery of such written notice to the Company and such breach has not been cured in all material respects; provided, however, that Parent will not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) if there has been any material breach by Parent or Merger Sub of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, and such breach has not been cured in all material respects;

(d) by the Company, at any time prior to the Effective Time, if (i) there has been a breach by Parent or Merger Sub of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, such that any condition contained in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 is not reasonably capable of being satisfied while such breach is continuing, (ii) the Company has delivered to Parent written notice of such breach and (iii) either such breach is not capable of cure in a manner sufficient to allow satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 prior to the Outside Date or at least forty-five (45) days have elapsed since the date of delivery of such written notice to Parent and such breach has not been cured in all material respects; provided, however, that the Company will not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(d) if there has been any material breach by the Company of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, and such breach has not been cured in all material respects;

(e) by either Parent or the Company, if the Effective Time shall not have occurred by 11:59 p.m., local time in Israel, on December 10, 2019 (as it may be extended pursuant to this Section 8.1(e), the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) will not be available to any Party whose breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement has caused, or resulted in, the Effective Time not occurring prior to the Outside Date; and provided, further, that (i) if on the Outside Date all of the conditions to Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c), shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, which conditions shall be capable of being satisfied at such time), the Outside Date will automatically be extended one (1) time for an additional three (3) months, and (ii) if on the Outside Date as so extended pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 8.1(e), all of the conditions to Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(c), shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, which conditions shall be capable of being satisfied at such time), the Outside Date will automatically be extended one (1) additional time by an additional three (3) months;

(f) by Parent, if, prior to receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval, (i) the Company materially and willfully breaches its obligations under Section 5.2, or (ii) the Company Board of Directors shall have effected a Company Change of Recommendation;

Section 8.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) To terminate this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1 (other than in the case of termination pursuant to Section 8.1(a)), the terminating Party shall give written notice to the other Party specifying the subsection of Section 8.1 pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement will become null and void and there will be no liability on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, except that the Confidentiality Agreement, Section 6.3, this Section 8.2 and Section 9.3 through Section 9.13 will survive such termination; provided, however, that each Party will retain liability for its fraud or a willful and material breach of its representations, warranties covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement prior to such termination and any aggrieved Party will be entitled to all rights and remedies available under applicable Law or in equity.

(b) Company Termination Fee.

(i) If the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h), then the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent prior to or substantially concurrently with, and as a condition to such termination, an amount in cash equal to $225,000,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”).

(ii) If Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f), (provided that if either Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(g) at a time when Parent would have been entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f), this Agreement shall be deemed to have been terminated pursuant to Section 8.1(f) for purposes of this Section 8.2), then the Company shall pay the Company Termination Fee or cause the Company Termination Fee to be paid to Parent within five (5) Business Days after such termination.

(iii) If (A) Parent or the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(e) (in each case, solely in the event that the Company Shareholder Approval has not been obtained and provided that the Company is not entitled to the Parent Termination Fee (as defined below)), or Section 8.1(g), (B) a bona fide Competing Proposal made by a Third Party that has been publicly disclosed after the date of this Agreement and prior to the date of such termination and has not been publicly withdrawn prior to the Outside Date (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1(e)) or the date of the Company Special Meeting (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 8.1(g)), and (C) within twelve (12) months after such termination, the Company either consummates a Competing Proposal or enters into a definitive agreement with respect to any Competing Proposal and such Competing Proposal (or any “superior proposal” permitted by the terms of such Competing Proposal) is subsequently consummated, whether or not within such twelve (12) month period, then within two (2) Business Days after the date of such consummation, the Company will pay or cause to be paid to Parent the Company Termination Fee. For purposes of this Section 8.2(b)(iii), the term “Competing Proposal” will have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 9.5, except that the references to “20%” and to “80%” will be deemed to be references to “50%”.

(iv) In the event any amount is payable by the Company pursuant to the preceding clauses (i)-(iii), such amount shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent. In no event shall the Company be obligated to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one (1) occasion.

(v) The Company acknowledges that (A) the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the Transactions and that without this Section 8.2 Parent and Merger Sub would not have entered into this Agreement and (B) the Company Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and Merger Sub in the circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions. If the Company fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.2(b), the Company shall pay to Parent all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of enforcement (including reasonable attorney’s fees as well as reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any action initiated by Parent), together with interest on the amount of the Company Termination Fee at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, in effect on the date such payment is required to be made. Subject to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s rights set forth in Section 9.13(b), Parent’s right to receive payment from the Company of the Company Termination Fee (under the circumstances in which it is payable) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parent Related Parties against the Company, the Company Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, shareholders, managers, members or affiliates (collectively, “Company Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions, including the Merger, to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment of such amount (if entitled under this Section 8.2(b)), none of the Company Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, including the Merger (except that the Company shall remain obligated for, and Parent and its affiliates may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the sections of this Agreement surviving such termination pursuant to Section 8.2(a)). For the avoidance of doubt, while Parent and Merger Sub may pursue both a grant of specific performance of the Company’s obligation to consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 9.13(b) and the payment of the Company Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(b), under no circumstances shall Parent and Merger Sub be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of such specific performance requiring the Company to consummate the Merger and to pay the Company Termination Fee (if entitled under this Section 8.2(b)). In any circumstance where performance by the Company of its obligations under this Agreement would relieve the Company of its obligation to pay the Company Termination Fee, Parent and Merger Sub may, in their sole discretion (i) seek specific performance pursuant to Section 9.13(b), (ii) withdraw any claim for specific performance and require payment of the Company Termination Fee if entitled to payment of the Company Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(b) or (iii) if Parent and Merger Sub are unable for any reason to obtain specific performance, require payment of the Company Termination Fee if entitled to payment of the Company Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(b). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Company Termination Fee on more than one (1) occasion.

(vi) In the event that the Company reasonably determines it is required to withhold amounts on account of Israeli Taxes from or in connection with the Company Termination Fee, the Company shall notify Parent of such determination, if requested by Parent in writing, as promptly as reasonably practicable after making such determination and provide it with reasonable time (but in any event no less than twenty (20) days) to obtain a Valid Tax Certificate allowing the Company to make the payment of the Company Termination Fee with no withholding, or a reduced rate of withholding, on account of Israeli Taxes. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Parent. In the event that Parent requests such time extension as set forth above, then all references in this Agreement to payment of the Company Termination Fee shall be deemed to provide for a deferral of the time upon which payment of the Company Termination Fee is due without such deferral limiting any rights of the Company to terminate this Agreement or in connection with such termination.

(i) If (A) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing) other than the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b) with respect to a Specified Antitrust Law or the condition set forth in Section 7.1(c), and (B) this Agreement is terminated by either the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(e), then Parent shall pay or cause to be paid to the Company (x) if such termination was by Parent, prior to or substantially concurrently with, and as a condition to, such termination, or (y) if such termination was by the Company, within five (5) Business Days of such termination, an amount in cash equal to $350,000,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”).

(ii) In the event any amount is payable pursuant to the preceding clause (i) such amount shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Company. In no event shall Parent be obligated to pay the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(iii) Parent and Merger Sub each acknowledge that (A) the agreements contained in this Section 8.2 are an integral part of the Transactions and that without this Section 8.2 the Company would not have entered into this Agreement and (B) the Parent Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company in the circumstances in which the Parent Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions. If Parent fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.2(c), Parent shall pay to the Company all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of enforcement (including reasonable attorneys’ fees as well as reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any action initiated by the Company), together with

interest on the amount of the Parent Termination Fee at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, in effect on the date such payment is required to be made. Subject to the Company’s rights set forth in Section 9.13(b), the Company’s right to receive payment from Parent of the Parent Termination Fee (under the circumstances in which it is payable) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company Related Parties against Parent, the Parent Subsidiaries or any of their respective former, current or future officers, directors, partners, stockholders, managers, members or affiliates (collectively, “Parent Related Parties”) for any loss suffered as a result of the failure of the Transactions, including the Merger, to be consummated or for a breach or failure to perform hereunder or otherwise, and upon payment of such amount (if entitled under this Section 8.2(c)), none of the Parent Related Parties shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions, including the Merger (except that Parent and Merger Sub shall remain obligated for, and the Company and its affiliates may be entitled to remedies with respect to, the sections of this Agreement surviving such termination pursuant to Section 8.2(a)). For the avoidance of doubt, while the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance of the obligation of Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 9.13(b) and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(c), under no circumstances shall the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of such specific performance requiring Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger and to pay the Parent Termination Fee (if entitled under this Section 8.2(c)). In any circumstance where performance by Parent of its obligations under this Agreement would relieve Parent of its obligation to pay the Parent Termination Fee, the Company may, in its sole discretion (i) seek specific performance pursuant to Section 9.13(b), (ii) withdraw any claim for specific performance and require payment of the Parent Termination Fee if entitled to payment of the Parent Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(c) or (iii) if the Company is unable for any reason to obtain specific performance, require payment of the Parent Termination Fee if entitled to payment of the Parent Termination Fee under this Section 8.2(c). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Parent Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

Section 9.11 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles (whether of the State of Israel or otherwise) that would result in the application of the Law of any other state.

(b) Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any court of competent jurisdiction located in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the agreements delivered in connection herewith or the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such Action except in any court of competent jurisdiction located in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such Action may be heard and determined in any court of competent jurisdiction located in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action in such courts and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in such courts. Each of the Parties hereto (A) agrees that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions (including the United States) by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law and (B) waives any objection to the recognition and enforcement by a court in other jurisdictions (including the United States) of any such final judgment. Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 9.11(b) in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.4 and Guarantor, Parent and Merger Sub agree that service provided to Xxxxx Xxxxx & Co. in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.4 that is substantially concurrently provided to Guarantor, Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, shall constitute valid service on Guarantor, Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, in Israel.

Section 9.12 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties; provided that Parent shall be permitted to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any wholly owned Subsidiary of Guarantor, and Merger Sub shall be permitted to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any wholly owned Subsidiary of Guarantor that is an Israeli entity, but no such assignment shall relieve Guarantor, Parent or Merger Sub of any of its obligations hereunder and provided, further, that (i) under no circumstances shall such assignment in any way prevent, impair or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions and (ii) to the extent any such assignment results in withholding taxes that exceed the amount of withholding taxes that would have been applicable but for such assignment, the Party that made such

assignment shall pay additional amounts as necessary to ensure that the recipient of any payment under this Agreement receives the same amount that it would otherwise have received if no such assignment had been made, including with respect to payments pursuant to Article II and Article VIII. Subject to the preceding sentence, but without relieving any Party of any obligation hereunder, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.13 Enforcement; Remedies; Specific Performance.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by Law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

In the event any Party seeks any remedy referred to in this Section 9.13, such Party shall not be required to obtain, furnish, post or provide any bond or other security in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any such remedy.

Section 9.14 Guaranty.

(a) To induce the Company to enter into this Agreement, Guarantor, intending to be legally bound, hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to the Company the full and punctual payment and performance of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s (or their respective successors or assigns) obligations under this Agreement, including any liabilities arising out of a breach thereof or non-compliance therewith (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees with the Company that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal as a result of the lack of legal capacity of Parent or Merger Sub or lack of authority of the party signing on behalf of Parent or Merger Sub, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Company on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of Parent and/or Merger Sub not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under this Agreement on the date when it would have been due.

(b) The guaranty set forth in Section 9.14(a) (the “Guaranty”) is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guarantee of the payment and performance by Parent and Merger Sub of the Guaranteed Obligations and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by Parent and Merger Sub under this Agreement. Should Parent or Merger Sub default in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall become immediately due and payable and the Guarantor shall discharge them promptly on demand. Claims hereunder may be made on one or more occasions. If any payment in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, including in insolvency, liquidation or administration, then Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Guaranteed Obligation as if such payment had not been made.

(c) Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by: (i) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) the addition, substitution or release of any Person interested in the Transactions; (iii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent or Merger Sub or any assignment of any rights or obligations of Parent or Merger Sub; (iv) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Parent or Merger Sub or their assets; (v) the adequacy of any means the Company may have of obtaining payment related to the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realize the full value of any security; or (vii) without prejudice to any defense that would be available to Guarantor if it had been the principal under this Agreement, or to any defense available to Parent or Merger Sub, any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person under this Agreement or any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally waives: (1) promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of the Guaranty and of the Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of the Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses that may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent or Merger Sub or any other Person interested in the Transactions, and all suretyship defenses generally, defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations that are available to Parent or Merger Sub under this Agreement and defenses available to Guarantor under the Guaranty; (2) any right it may have of first requiring the Company to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from Parent, Merger Sub or any other Person before claiming from Guarantor under this Section 9.14; (3) all rights and defenses under sections 4(b), 5, 6, 7(b), 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 of the Guarantee Law, 1967 (the “Guaranty Law”) and confirms that the provisions of the Guarantee Law affording such rights or defenses to a guarantor shall not apply to the guarantee granted under this Agreement; and (4) any right of set-off or counter-claims against the Company. Guarantor acknowledges that these waivers apply irrespective of any Law to the contrary and that it has received and will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the Transactions and that the waivers set forth in this Section 9.14 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

(d) This Guaranty may only be amended by a writing signed and delivered by Guarantor and the Company. Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its respective affiliates not to institute, any Action asserting that the Guaranty is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with its terms.

(e) Guarantor represents and warrants to the Company that it is not a “single guarantor” or a “protected guarantor” within the meaning of such terms under the Guarantee Law and therefore the rights and protections under Chapter B of the Guarantee Law do not apply to it.

(f) Guarantor represents and warrants to the Company as set forth in Section 4.3 (Authority Relative to this Agreement), Section 4.4 (No Conflict; Required Filings and Consents), Section 4.5 (Absence of Litigation), Section 4.7 (Ownership of Company Share Capital), Section 4.8 (Sufficient Funds) and Section 4.9 (Brokers and Expenses), in each case, mutatis mutandis, as applicable to Guarantor if any references to Parent are replaced with references to Guarantor.

(g) For purposes of Section 6.2, all references to Parent or to a party shall include Guarantor and all references to Subsidiaries of Parent shall include references to Subsidiaries of Guarantor.

(h) Nothing in this Section 9.14 shall waive any defenses, counterclaims or rights of setoff that Parent or Merger Sub may have under this Agreement or applicable Law.
