JFROG LTD.

Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors

(As Adopted by the Shareholders on                 , 2020)


1.

Introduction

This document sets forth the Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors (this “Compensation Policy or “Policy”) of JFrog Ltd. (“JFrog or the “Company”), in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”).

Compensation is a key component of JFrog’s overall human capital strategy to attract, retain, reward, and motivate highly skilled individuals that will enhance JFrog’s value and otherwise assist JFrog to reach its business and financial long-term goals. Accordingly, the structure of this Policy is established to tie the compensation of officers and directors to JFrog’s goals and performance.

For purposes of this Policy, “Executive Officers” shall mean “Office Holders” as such term is defined in Section 1 of the Companies Law, excluding, unless otherwise expressly indicated herein, JFrog’s directors.

This policy is subject to applicable law and is not intended and should not be interpreted as limiting or derogating from provisions of applicable law to the extent not permitted by such law.

This Policy shall apply to compensation agreements and arrangements which will be approved after the date on which this Policy is adopted and shall serve as JFrog’s Compensation Policy for five (5) years, commencing as of its adoption, unless amended earlier.

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors of JFrog (the “Compensation Committee” and the “Board”, respectively) shall review and reassess this Policy from time to time, as required by the Companies Law.

 

2.

Objectives

JFrog’s objectives and goals in setting this Policy are to attract, motivate and retain highly experienced leaders who will contribute to JFrog’s success and enhance shareholder value, while demonstrating professionalism in a highly achievement-oriented culture that is based on merit and rewards excellent performance in the long term, and embedding JFrog’s core values as part of a motivated behavior. To that end, this Policy is designed, among others:

 

  2.1.

To closely align the interests of the Executive Officers with those of JFrog’s shareholders in order to enhance shareholder value;

 

  2.2.

To align a significant portion of the Executive Officers’ compensation with JFrog’s short and long-term goals and performance;

 

  2.3.

To provide the Executive Officers with a structured compensation package, including competitive salaries, performance-motivating cash and equity incentive programs and benefits, and to be able to present to each Executive Officer an opportunity to advance in a growing organization;

 

  2.4.

To strengthen the retention and the motivation of Executive Officers in the long term;

 

  2.5.

To provide appropriate awards in order to incentivize superior individual excellency and corporate performance; and

 

  2.6.

To maintain consistency among Executive Officers in the way Executive Officers are compensated.

Compensation Instruments

Compensation instruments under this Policy may include the following:

 

  3.1.

Base salary;

 

  3.2.

Benefits;

 

  3.3.

Cash bonuses;

 

  3.4.

Equity-based compensation;

 

  3.5.

Change of control terms; and

 

  3.6.

4.

Overall Compensation - Ratio Between Fixed and Variable Compensation

 

  4.1.

This Policy aims to balance the mix of “Fixed Compensation” (comprised primarily of base salary and benefits) and “Variable Compensation” (comprised primarily of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation) in order to, among other things, appropriately incentivize Executive Officers to meet JFrog’s short and long-term goals while taking into consideration the Company’s need to manage a variety of business risks.

 

  4.2.

The value of the total annual bonus and equity based compensation opportunity of each Executive Officer shall not exceed 95% of the value of the total compensation package of such Executive Officer on an annual basis, as determined based on the accounting principles used by the JFrog for its financial statements or such other method as determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board.

 

5.

Inter-Company Compensation Ratio

 

  5.1.

In the process of drafting and updating this Policy, JFrog’s Board and Compensation Committee have examined the ratio between employer cost associated with the engagement of the Executive Officers and directors, and the average and median employer cost associated with the engagement of JFrog’s other employees (including contractor employees as defined in the Companies Law) (the “Ratio”).

 

  5.2.

The possible ramifications of the Ratio on the daily working environment in JFrog were examined and will continue to be examined by JFrog from time to time in order to ensure that levels of executive compensation, as compared to the overall workforce will not have a negative impact on work relations in JFrog.

B. Base Salary and Benefits

 

6.

Base Salary

 

  6.1.

A base salary provides stable compensation to Executive Officers and allows JFrog to attract and retain competent executive talent and maintain a stable management team. The base salary varies among Executive Officers, and is individually determined according to the educational background, prior vocational experience, qualifications, role at the company, business responsibilities and the past performance of each Executive Officer.

 

  6.2.

Since a competitive base salary is essential to JFrog’s ability to attract and retain highly skilled professionals, JFrog will seek to establish a base salary that is competitive with base salaries paid to Executive Officers in a peer group of other companies operating in technology sectors which are similar in their characteristics to JFrog’s, as much as possible, while considering, among others, such companies’ size and characteristics including (but not


  limited to) their revenues, profitability rates, growth rates, market capitalization, number of employees and operating arena (in Israel or globally), the list of which shall be reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee at least every two years. To that end, JFrog shall utilize as a reference, comparative market data and practices, which will include a compensation survey that compares and analyses the level of the overall compensation package offered to an Executive Officer of the Company with compensation packages in similar positions to that of the relevant officer in such companies. Such compensation survey may be conducted internally or through an external independent consultant.

 

  6.3.

The Compensation Committee and the Board may periodically consider and approve base salary adjustments for Executive Officers. The main considerations for salary adjustment are similar to those used in initially determining the base salary, but may also include change of role or responsibilities, recognition for professional achievements, regulatory or contractual requirements, budgetary constraints or market trends, or such other factors as determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board. The Compensation Committee and the Board will also consider the previous and existing compensation arrangements of the Executive Officer whose base salary is being considered for adjustment.

 

7.

Benefits

 

  7.1.

The following benefits may be granted to the Executive Officers in order, among other things, to comply with legal requirements:

 

  7.1.1.

Vacation days in accordance with market practice;

 

  7.1.2.

Sick days in accordance with market practice;

 

  7.1.3.

Convalescence pay according to applicable law;

 

  7.1.4.

Monthly remuneration for a study fund, as allowed by applicable law and with reference to JFrog’s practice and the practice in peer group companies (including contributions on bonus payments);

 

  7.1.5.

JFrog may contribute on behalf of the Executive Officer to an insurance policy, a pension fund or retirement fund, as allowed or required by applicable law and with reference to JFrog’s policies and procedures and the practice in similar companies (including contributions on bonus payments); and

 

  7.1.6.

JFrog shall contribute on behalf of the Executive Officer towards work disability insurance and life insurance, as allowed or required by applicable law and with reference to JFrog’s policies and procedures and the practice in similar companies (including contributions on bonus payments).

 

  7.2.

Non-Israeli Executive Officers may receive other similar, comparable or customary benefits as applicable in the relevant jurisdiction in which they are employed. Such customary benefits shall be determined based on the methods described in Section 6.2 of this Policy (with the necessary changes and adjustments).

 

  7.3.

In events of relocation or repatriation of an Executive Officer to another geography, such Executive Officer may receive other similar, comparable or customary benefits as applicable in the relevant jurisdiction in which he or she is employed or additional payments to reflect adjustments in cost of living. Such benefits may include reimbursements, stipends or other payments for out-of-pocket one-time payments and other ongoing expenses, such as housing allowance, car allowance, home leave visit, tax equalization payments, and other similar costs.

 

  7.4.

JFrog may offer additional benefits to its Executive Officers to the extent such benefits are reasonable and necessary or comparable to customary market practices, such as, but not


  limited to: cellular and land line phone benefits, company car and travel benefits, reimbursement of business travel (including a daily stipend when traveling) and other business related expenses, insurances, other benefits (such as newspaper subscriptions, academic and professional studies), etc., provided, however, that such additional benefits shall be determined in accordance with JFrog’s policies and procedures.

C. Cash Bonuses

 

8.

Cash Bonuses - The Objective

 

  8.1.

Compensation in the form of an annual or other periodic cash bonus is an important element in aligning the Executive Officers’ compensation with JFrog’s objectives and business goals. Therefore, JFrog’s compensation philosophy reflects a pay-for-performance element, in which bonus payout eligibility and levels are generally determined based on actual financial or operational results, as well as individual performance.

 

  8.2.

A cash bonus may be awarded to an Executive Officer upon the attainment of pre-set periodic objectives and individual targets determined by the Compensation Committee (and, if required by law, by the Board) at the beginning of each calendar or fiscal year or bonus period, or upon engagement, in case of newly-hired Executive Officers, or upon establishment of a new bonus program, taking into account JFrog’s short and long-term goals, as well as its compliance and risk management policies. The Compensation Committee and the Board shall also determine applicable minimum thresholds that must be met for entitlement to a cash bonus (all or any portion thereof) and the formula for calculating any such cash bonus payout. In special circumstances, as determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board (e.g., regulatory changes, significant changes in JFrog’s business environment, a significant organizational change, a significant merger and acquisition events, or other similar events etc.), the Compensation Committee and the Board may modify the objectives and/or their relative weights and the amount of bonus payouts (including decreasing such amounts to zero) during the applicable bonus period.

 

  8.3.

In the event the employment of an Executive Officer is terminated prior to the end of a bonus period, the Company may (but shall not be obligated to) pay such Executive Officer a full cash bonus for the applicable period (based on achievement of bonus targets during such period) or a prorated one, or no bonus.

 

  8.4.

The actual cash bonus with respect to a bonus period to be awarded to Executive Officers shall be recommended by the CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board.

 

9.

Annual Cash Bonuses - The Formula

Executive Officers other than the CEO

 

  9.1.

The annual cash bonus opportunity of JFrog’s Executive Officers, other than the chief executive officer (the “CEO”), will generally be based on performance objectives and a discretionary evaluation of the Executive Officer’s overall performance by the CEO and subject to minimum thresholds. The performance objectives will be determined by JFrog’s CEO and approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board at the commencement of each calendar year (or upon engagement, in case of newly hired Executive Officers or in special circumstances as determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board) on the basis of, but not limited to, company, division and individual objectives. The performance objectives and the weight to be assigned to each achievement in the overall evaluation, will be based on overall company performance measures, which may be based on actual financial and operational results, such as (but not limited to) revenues, operating income and cash flow and may further include, divisional or personal objectives which may include operational objectives, such as (but not limited to) market share, initiation of new markets and operational efficiency, customer focused objectives, project milestones objectives and investment in human capital objectives, such as employee satisfaction, employee retention and employee training and leadership programs.


  9.2.

The maximum annual cash bonus that an Executive Officer, other than the CEO, will be entitled to receive for any given calendar year, will not exceed 200% of such Executive Officer’s annual base salary.

CEO

 

  9.3.

The annual cash bonus opportunity of JFrog’s CEO will be mainly based on performance measurable objectives and subject to minimum thresholds as provided in Section 8.2 above. Such performance measurable objectives will be determined annually by the Compensation Committee and the Board at the commencement of each calendar year (or upon engagement, in case of newly hired CEO or in special circumstances as determined by Compensation Committee the Board). The performance measurable objectives (which include the objectives and the weight to be assigned to each achievement in the overall evaluation, will be based on overall company performance measures, which may be based on, company and personal objectives. Company objectives may include actual financial and operational results, such as (but not limited to) revenues, sales, operating income, cash flow or Company’s annual operating plan and long-term plan.

 

  9.4.

In addition, a less significant portion of the annual cash bonus opportunity granted to JFrog’s CEO, and in any event not more than 30% of the annual cash bonus, may be based on a discretionary evaluation of the CEO’s overall performance by the Compensation Committee and the Board based on quantitative and qualitative criteria or such other criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board.

 

  9.5.

The maximum annual cash bonus that the CEO will be entitled to receive for any given calendar year, will not exceed 250% of his or her annual base salary.

  10.4.

Periodic Bonus. The Board may grant Executive Officers, other than the CEO, periodic cash bonus opportunities (other than the annual cash bonus opportunity described in Section 9) in accordance with the terms of Section 8, but subject to the ratio limitation described in Section 9.2.


11.

Compensation Recovery (Clawback)

 

  11.1.

In the event of an accounting restatement, JFrog shall be entitled to recover from its Executive Officers the bonus compensation or performance-based equity compensation in the amount in which such compensation exceeded what would have been paid under the financial statements, as restated, provided that a claim is made by JFrog prior to the second anniversary of fiscal year end of the restated financial statements.

 

  11.2.

Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the compensation recovery will not be triggered in the following events:

 

  11.2.1.

  11.3.

Nothing in this Section 11 derogates from any other “Clawback” or similar provisions regarding disgorging of profits imposed on Executive Officers by virtue of applicable laws.

D. Equity Based Compensation

 

12.

The Objective

 

  12.1.

The equity-based compensation for JFrog’s Executive Officers is designed in a manner consistent with the underlying objectives in determining the base salary and the annual cash bonus, with its main objectives being to enhance the alignment between the Executive Officers’ interests with the long-term interests of JFrog and its shareholders, and to strengthen the retention and the motivation of Executive Officers in the long term. In addition, since equity-based awards are structured to vest over several years, their incentive value to recipients is aligned with longer-term strategic plans.

 

  12.2.

The equity-based compensation offered by JFrog is intended to be in a form of share options and/or other equity-based awards, such as restricted stock unit awards, in accordance with the Company’s equity incentive plan in place as may be updated from time to time.

 

  12.3.

All equity-based incentives granted to Executive Officers shall be subject to vesting periods in order to promote long-term retention of the awarded Executive Officers. Unless determined otherwise in a specific award agreement approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board, grants to Executive Officers other than non-employee directors shall vest gradually over a period of between one (1) to five (5) years or based on performance. The exercise price of options shall be determined in accordance with JFrog’s policies, the main terms of which shall be disclosed in the annual report of JFrog.

 

  12.4.

All other terms of the equity awards shall be in accordance with JFrog’s equity incentive plans and other related practices and policies. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee or Board may, extend the period of time for which an award is to remain exercisable and make provisions with respect to the acceleration of the vesting period of any Executive Officer’s awards, including, without limitation, in connection with a corporate transaction involving a change of control, and may otherwise modify or amend outstanding awards in accordance with JFrog’s equity incentive plans and other related practices and policies, subject to any additional approval as may be required by the Companies Law.

 

13.

General Guidelines for the Grant of Awards

 

  13.1.

The equity-based compensation shall be granted from time to time and be individually determined and awarded according to the performance, educational background, prior business experience, qualifications, role and the personal responsibilities of the Executive Officer, and such other criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board.


  13.2.

In determining the equity-based compensation granted to each Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee and Board shall consider the factors specified in Section 13.1 above, and in any event the total fair market value of any annual equity-based compensation at the time of grant shall not exceed: (i) with respect to the CEO - the higher of (w) 500% of his or her annual base salary or (x) 0.5% of the Company’s fair market value; and (ii) with respect to each of the other Executive Officers - the higher of (y) 300% of his or her annual base salary or (z) 0.35% of the Company’s fair market value.
