(a) during the Voting Period, at each meeting of the Company Shareholders (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting) or any class or series thereof, and in each written consent or resolutions of any of the Company Shareholders in which Holder is entitled to vote or consent, Holder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to, and agrees to cause any other holder of record of any of the Holder’s Shares to, be present for such meeting and vote (in person or by proxy), or consent to any action by written consent or resolution with respect to, as applicable, the Shares in favor of (i) the adoption and approval of the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions (including to the extent required, the issuance of Company Securities pursuant to this Business Combination Agreement) in accordance with the Company Organizational Documents and the Israeli Companies Law and, to the extent applicable, regulations of the SEC, ISA, TASE and Nasdaq; (ii) any other Ancillary Documents requiring shareholder approval the form of which is attached as an exhibit to the Business Combination Agreement on the date of execution thereof or otherwise approved by the Company; (iii) the approval of the Surviving Company Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Recapitalization; (iv) the appointment of the members of the Post-Closing Company Board of Directors in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement; (v) the issuance of Company Ordinary Shares and Company Warrants pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, including (A) the Company Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to the Recapitalization, (B) the Company Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Company Warrants and (C) the Company Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the outstanding Company Options; (vi) such other matters as the Company and SPAC shall hereafter mutually determine to be necessary or appropriate in order to effect the Transactions; (vii) the adjournment of such meeting of the Company Shareholders or any class or series thereof, if necessary or desirable in the reasonable determination of the Company; and (viii) to vote the Shares in opposition to: (A) any Acquisition Proposal and any and all other proposals (x) for the acquisition of the Company, (y) that could reasonably be expected to materially delay or impair the ability of the Company to consummate the Merger, the Business Combination Agreement or any of the Transactions, or (z) which are in competition with or materially inconsistent with the Business Combination Agreement; (B) any change in the present capitalization or corporate structure of the Company which is inconsistent with the Business Combination Agreement; or (C) any other action or proposal involving the Company that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect in any material respect the Transactions or would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions to the Closing under the Business Combination Agreement not being fulfilled;

 

(b) except for transfers as permitted by, and in accordance with, Section 3(b) below, not to deposit, and to cause its Affiliates not to deposit, except as provided in this Agreement, any Shares owned by Holder or Holder’s Affiliates in a voting trust or subject any Shares to any arrangement or agreement with respect to the voting of such Shares, unless specifically requested in writing to do so by SPAC and the Company in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and any of the Transactions;

 

 

(c) during the Voting Period, except as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, make, or in any manner participate in, directly or indirectly, a “solicitation” of “proxies” or consents (as such terms are used in the rules of the SEC), voting cards or voting in any other means, or powers of attorney or similar rights to vote, or file with the Company any “position statement” or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any shares of the Company in connection with any vote or other action with respect to the Transactions, other than to recommend that shareholders of the Company vote in favor of adoption of the Business Combination Agreement and the Transactions and any other proposal, the approval of which by the Company shareholders is a condition to the obligations of the Company or SPAC under the Business Combination Agreement (and any actions required in furtherance thereof and otherwise as expressly provided by Section 1 of this Agreement);

 

(d) during the Voting Period, except as contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, not to request that the Company add to the agenda of any general meeting of the Company’s shareholders relating to the approval of the Merger, the Business Combination Agreement or any of the Transactions, any proposal which contradicts or is otherwise inconsistent with the Merger, the Business Combination Agreement or any of the Transactions or which is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect in any material respect the Transactions or would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions to the Closing under the Business Combination Agreement not being fulfilled; and

 

(e) without limiting Section 1(a) above, to approve and consent to the Recapitalization and the Surviving Company Memorandum and Articles of Association (as provided in Section 1(a)(iii)) in accordance with the terms of the Company Organizational Documents.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 1 shall limit or affect any actions or omissions taken by Holder in its capacity as a director or officer of the Company, or in the exercise of its fiduciary duties in his capacity as a director or officer of the Company, and no such actions or omissions shall be deemed a breach of this Section 1, and, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Holder shall not be limited or restricted in any way from voting in its sole discretion on any matter other than the matters referred to in this Section 1.

 

2. Grant of Proxy.  During the Voting Period, Holder, with respect to all of the Shares, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, grants to, and appoints, the Company and any designee of the Company (determined in the Company’s sole discretion) as Holder’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for and in Holder’s name, to vote, or cause to be voted, or express consent or dissent and otherwise act (including by proxy or written consent, if applicable) with respect to any Shares owned (whether beneficially or of record) by Holder, solely on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 1 above. The proxy and attorney-in-fact granted by Holder pursuant to this Section 2 are irrevocable and are granted in consideration of the Company entering into this Agreement and the Company and SPAC entering into the Business Combination Agreement and incurring certain related fees and expenses. Holder hereby affirms that such irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest by reason of the Business Combination Agreement and, except upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5(a), is intended to be irrevocable. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement. Holder and the Company each agrees that the Company shall exercise (and shall not fail to exercise) its rights as attorney-in-fact and proxy in accordance with the provisions of Section 1 of this Agreement. The proxy and power of attorney shall not be terminated by any act of the Holder or by operation of law, by lack of appropriate power or authority, or by the occurrence of any other event or events and shall be binding upon all successors, assigns, heirs, beneficiaries and legal representatives of the Holder. The Holder hereby revokes all other proxies and powers of attorney on the matters specified in this Section ‎2 with respect to the Shares that the Holder may have previously appointed or granted, and no subsequent proxy or power of attorney shall be given or written consent executed (and if given or executed, shall not be effective) by the Holder with respect to any Shares. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the death, bankruptcy or incapacity of the Holder and any obligation of the Holder under this Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, and successors of the Holder.

Holder agrees, during the Voting Period, to notify the Company and SPAC promptly in writing of the number and type of any changes to Holder’s ownership of or voting control with respect to Shares, upon Holder’s acquisition or commitment to acquire any additional Shares or upon any other changes involving Holder relating to the Company’s share capital or securities convertible or exercisable for share capital of the Company.

Each party hereto hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto and (ii) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Court. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself, or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party at the applicable address set forth or referred to in Section 5(g).

(h) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only, in the case of an amendment, with the written consent of the Company, SPAC and the Holder, or, in the case of a waiver, with the written consent of the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of any other provisions hereof by such party, nor shall any such waiver be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.

 

 

(i) Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(j) Specific Performance. Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Holder, money damages will be inadequate and that the Company will not have adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Holder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

 

(k) Expenses. Each party shall be responsible for its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of investment bankers, accountants and counsel, if applicable) in connection with the entering into of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that in the event of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the non-prevailing party in any such Action will pay its own expenses and the reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, reasonably incurred by the prevailing party.

 

(l) No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create a contractual relationship among Holder, SPAC and the Company, and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like relationship among the parties hereto or among any other the Company shareholders entering into voting agreements with SPAC or the Company. Holder is not affiliated with any other holder of securities of the Company entering into a voting agreement with SPAC or the Company in connection with the Business Combination Agreement and has acted independently regarding its decision to enter into this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in SPAC or the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares.

 

(m) Further Assurances. From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration, each party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without derogating from the foregoing, the Holder further agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class action with respect to, any action or claim, derivative or otherwise, against SPAC, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions (including the Recapitalization).

 

 

(n) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Business Combination Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to the extent referred to herein) constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement or any Ancillary Document.
