Notwithstanding the foregoing, all of the then unvested Awarded Shares shall vest effective immediately prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, provided that the Grantee has continuously provided services to the Group as an employee, independent contractor or member of the Board through the date of the consummation of the Change in Control.

For purposes hereof, “Change in Control” shall mean either of the following:

(ii) after which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this clause (ii) as beneficially owning 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Company prior to the consummation of the transaction.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary” means any entity, whether domestic or foreign, in an unbroken chain of entities beginning with the Company if each of the entities other than the last entity in the unbroken chain beneficially owns, at the time of the determination, securities or interests representing at least 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of securities or interests in one of the other entities in such chain.

For purposes hereof, “Cause” shall mean, unless otherwise defined in an employment agreement with respect to the termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company (in which case such cause definition and process shall apply in lieu of this paragraph), the occurrence of one or more of the following events, as determined by the Committee in its good faith: (i) misconduct or material failure or refusal to perform (other than by reason of disability or an approved leave of absence), or substantial negligence in the performance of, his or her duties and responsibilities to the Company or any member of the Group; (ii) the Grantee’s material breach of any restrictive covenant agreement between the Grantee and any member of the Group; (iii) the Grantee’s commission of an act or acts constituting a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude or that has or reasonably could be expected to have an adverse effect on any member of the Group, including economically or reputationally; (iv) the Grantee’s commission of fraud, embezzlement, theft or other act involving dishonesty; (v) other conduct by the Grantee that is or could be reasonably expected to be materially harmful to the business interests or reputation of any member of the Group; (vi) the Grantee’s breach of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company or a member of the Group, including acting in conflict with the business interests of any member of the Group; or (vii) the Grantee’s material breach of this Agreement or an employment policy or code of conduct of member of the Group. In the event of Grantee’s termination of service as an employee, independent contractor or member of the Board by the Group for Cause, all of the vested Awarded Shares shall be forfeited on the date of such termination. If, within six months following the Grantee’s termination of service with the Group as an employee, independent contractor or member of the Board for any reason other than for Cause, it is discovered that the Grantee’s employment or service could have been terminated for Cause, Grantee’s employment or service shall, at the discretion of the Committee, be deemed to have been terminated for Cause for all purposes under the Plan, and the Grantee shall be required to repay to the Company all amounts received by the Grantee and his or her permitted transferees in connection with Awarded Shares following such termination that would have been forfeited under the Plan had such termination been for Cause.

4. Restrictions on Awarded Shares. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the terms of this Agreement, from the Date of Grant until the date the Awarded Shares are vested in accordance with Section 2 and are no longer subject to forfeiture in accordance with Section 3 (the “Restriction Period”), the Grantee shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, or assign any of the Awarded Shares. Except for these limitations, the Committee may in its sole discretion, remove any or all of the restrictions on such Awarded Shares whenever it may determine that, by reason of changes in Applicable Laws or other changes in circumstances arising after the date of this Agreement, such action is appropriate.

5. Legend. Awarded Shares electronically registered in a Grantee’s name shall note that such shares are Restricted Stock. If certificates for Awarded Shares are issued, the following legend shall be placed on all such certificates:

On the face of the certificate:

“Transfer of this stock is restricted in accordance with conditions printed on the reverse of this certificate.”

“The shares of stock evidenced by this certificate are subject to and transferable only in accordance with that certain Inducement Restricted Stock Award dated as of ____________, 20__, by and between the Company and ______________, a copy of which is on file at the principal office of the Company in Tel-Aviv, Israel. No transfer or pledge of the shares evidenced hereby may be made except in accordance with and subject to the provisions of said Plan and Award Agreement. By acceptance of this certificate, any holder, transferee or pledgee hereof agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of said Plan and Award Agreement.”

The following legend shall be inserted on a certificate, if issued, evidencing Common Stock issued under this Agreement if the shares were not issued in a transaction registered under the applicable federal and state securities laws:

“Shares of stock represented by this certificate have been acquired by the holder for investment and not for resale, transfer or distribution, have been issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of applicable state and federal securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold or transferred other than pursuant to effective registration under such laws, or in transactions otherwise in compliance with such laws, and upon evidence satisfactory to the Company of compliance with such laws, as to which the Company may rely upon an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company.”

All Awarded Shares owned by the Grantee shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall be represented by a certificate or certificates bearing the foregoing legend.

6. Delivery of Certificates. If requested by the Grantee, the Company shall deliver certificates for the Awarded Shares free of restriction under this Agreement promptly after, and only after, the Restriction Period has expired without forfeiture pursuant to Section 4. In connection with the issuance of a certificate for Restricted Stock, the Grantee shall endorse such certificate in blank or execute a stock power in a form satisfactory to the Company in blank and deliver such certificate and executed stock power to the Company.

7. Clawback. Notwithstanding Section 2, if the Grantee is an executive officer (as defined under U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules) of the Company at any time after the Date of Grant and the Company is required to restate its financial statements, then the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time within two years following such restatement, require the Grantee to, and the Grantee shall immediately upon notice of such Committee determination, return to the Company any Awarded Shares and pay to the Company in cash the amount of any proceeds received by the Grantee from the disposition or transfer of, and any dividends or other distributions of cash or property received by the Grantee with respect to, any Awarded Shares, in each case during the period commencing two years before the beginning of the restated financial period and ending on the date of such Committee determination. In addition, any portion of the Awarded Shares that is not vested or has not been exercised by the Grantee on the date that the Committee makes such determination shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited. The Committee shall have the authority and discretion to make any determination regarding the specific implementation of this Section 7 with respect to the Grantee. In addition to this Section 7, this Agreement, the Awarded Shares shall be fully subject to the terms and conditions of any “clawback” or compensation recovery policy that is in effect or may later be adopted by the Company in its discretion or imposed under Applicable Laws, each as may be amended and in effect from time to time.

8. Rights of a Stockholder. Except as provided in Section 4 and Section 5 above, the Grantee shall have, with respect to his Awarded Shares, all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares, and the right to receive any dividends thereon.
