Nothing in this Agreement shall derogate from the Employee’s rights to severance payment in accordance with the Severance Law or agreement or applicable ministerial order including the General Approval of the Minister of Labor and Welfare, as set forth in this Section 6, in the event contributions to the Insurance Scheme in accordance with Section 11 below have not been made in full.

Upon the execution of this Agreement, the Employee will execute the Company's Proprietary Information, Assignment of Inventions and Non-Competition Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B. Exhibit B hereto shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Agreement.
Special Agreement; Salary and Special Compensation; Insurance
10. (a) Special Agreement. It is agreed between the parties hereto that this Agreement is a personal agreement, and that the position the Employee is to hold within the Company is a senior position which requires a special measure of personal trust, as such terms are defined in the Working Hours and Rest Law 5711 - 1951, as amended (the "Law"). The provisions of any collective bargaining agreement which exist or shall exist do not, and will not, apply to the employment of the Employee, whether such agreement was signed among the government, the General Federation of Labor and Employers organizations, or any of such parties, or whether signed by others, in relation to the field or fields of the business of the Company or in relation to the position held by or the profession of the Employee. In light of this relationship of trust, the provisions of the Law, or any other law which may apply, will not apply to the performance by the Employee of his duties hereunder. Thus, the Employee may be required, from time to time and according to the work load demanded of his, to work beyond the regular working hours and the Employee shall not be entitled to any further compensation other than as specified in this Agreement and the Appendixes hereto.
(b) Salary. The Company shall pay to the Employee as compensation for the employment services an aggregate base salary in the amount set forth in Exhibit A (the "Salary"). In addition, until the Company will provide the Employee with the Car as set forth in Section 16 below - the Company shall pay the Employee for any and all daily travel costs to which he may be entitled under any applicable law. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Salary includes any and all payments to which the Employee is entitled from the Company hereunder and under any applicable law, regulation or agreement. The Employee's Salary and other terms of employment may be reviewed and updated by the Company's management, from time to time, at the Company's discretion. The Salary is to be paid to the Employee no later than the 9th day of each calendar month after the month for which the Salary is paid, after deduction of applicable taxes and like payments.
(c) Special Compensation for Non-Competition Obligations. The Employee acknowledges that 20% of the Salary is paid as special supplementary monthly compensation in consideration for the Employee's non-competition undertakings and obligations set forth in Exhibit B hereto (the "Special Non-Competition Monthly Compensation"). The Employee warrants and represents that the Special Non-Competition Monthly Compensation constitutes a real, appropriate and full consideration to any prejudice he may suffer due to his non-competition undertakings and obligations set forth in Exhibit B hereto, including but not limited to restriction of his freedom of employment.
11. Insurance and Social Benefits. The Company will insure the Employee under a "Manager's Insurance Scheme" and/or a pension plan, as per the Employee’s request (the "Insurance Scheme") as follows: (i) the Company will pay an amount equal to 5% (five percent) of the Salary towards a fund for life insurance and pension; (ii) the Company will pay an amount of up to 2.5% (two percent and one half of a percent) of the Salary for a fund for the event of loss of working ability ("Ovdan Kosher Avoda"); and (iii) the Company will pay an amount equal to 8 1/3% (eight percent and one third of a percent) of the Salary towards a fund for severance compensation (the "Company’s Severance Contribution"). Similarly, at the beginning of each month the Company shall deduct from the Salary an amount equal to 5% of the Salary for the preceding month, and shall pay such amount as premium payable in respect of the provident compensation component of the Insurance Scheme. Additionally, the Company together with the Employee will maintain an advanced study fund ("Keren Hishtalmut") and the Employee and the Company shall contribute to such fund an amount equal to 2.5% (two percent and one half of a percent) of the Salary and 7.5% (seven percent and one half of a percent) of the Salary, respectively. All of the Employee's aforementioned contributions shall be transferred to the above referred to plans and funds by the Company by deducting such amounts from each monthly Salary payment.

The Company shall bear all the fixed and variable costs of the Car, including licenses, insurance, gasoline, regular maintenance and repairs.

| 15. | Insofar as the protective covenants set forth in this Exhibit are concerned, Employee specifically acknowledges, stipulates and agrees as follows: (i) the protective covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill, property and Proprietary Information of the Company, and the operations and business of the Company; and (ii) the time duration of the protective covenants is reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill and the operations and business of Company, and does not impose a greater restrain than is necessary to protect the goodwill or other business interests of the Company. Nevertheless, if any of the restrictions set forth in this Exhibit is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable or overly-broad as to geographic area, scope or time or to be otherwise unenforceable, the parties hereto intend for the restrictions set forth in this Exhibit to be reformed, modified and redefined by such court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified by such court, to be fully enforced. |
Remedies for Breach
| 16. | Employee acknowledges that the legal remedies for breach of the provisions of this Exhibit may be found inadequate and therefore agrees that, in addition to all of the remedies available to Company in the event of a breach or a threatened breach of any of such provisions, the Company may also, in addition to any other remedies which may be available under applicable law, obtain temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctions against any and all such actions. |
Intent of Parties
| 17. | Employee recognizes and agrees: (i) that this Exhibit is necessary and essential to protect the business of Company and to realize and derive all the benefits, rights and expectations of conducting Company’s business; (ii) that the area and duration of the protective covenants contained herein are in all things reasonable; and (iii) that good and valuable consideration exists under the Agreement, for Employee's agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Exhibit. |

Dear Dror,
| Re: | Salary Increase |
As previously discussed with you, we hereby wish to confirm that, in appreciation of your contribution to the Company, effective as of the salary for the month of April 2016 (which is paid on May 1, 2016), your total monthly compensation (including car benefit in the monthly value of NIS 4,000) has been increased to the total gross amount of NIS 52,000 ("Total Compensation"). Out of the Total Compensation, an amount of NIS 39,000 will be paid to you as Salary. Accordingly, your Base Salary is NIS 31,200 and your Additional Compensation is NIS 7,800.
The shortfall between the Total Compensation and the Salary ("Shortfall") shall be replaced with alternative compensation in accordance with the resolutions of the Board of Directors of Labstyle Innovations Corp. dated April 3, 2015 (including the Shares for Salary Program) and April 17, 2016. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Shortfall shall not constitute a salary component for all intents and purposes.
Except as set out herein, there are no further changes to your employment agreement, which shall continue to apply and remain in full force and effect.
Any capitalized terms not defined in this letter shall have the meaning ascribed to it in your employment agreement.
We thank you for your continuous contribution to the Company.
Yours sincerely,
| /s/Erez Raphael | |
