(ii)                                  Upon surrender of a Company Share Certificate (or affidavit of loss and bond as indemnity, in accordance with Section 2.6(b), in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share for cancellation to the Paying Agent, together with a letter of transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Company Share Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be entitled to receive, in exchange for each Company Share, the Per Share Merger Consideration, subject to any applicable withholding Tax as contemplated by Section 2.9, in exchange therefor pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iii) of this Agreement, to be mailed within three Business Days following the later to occur of (x) the Paying Agent’s receipt of the Exchange Fund or (y) the Paying Agent’s receipt of such Company Share Certificate (or affidavit of loss and bond as indemnity, in accordance with Section 2.6(b), in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Share, and the Company Share Certificate or Book-Entry Share so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled within three Business Days.

(iii)                               No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of the holders of the Company Share Certificate or Book-Entry Shares on the consideration payable to such holders pursuant to this Agreement.

(v)                                 Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Share Certificates or Book-Entry Shares as of the one year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Share Certificates or Book-Entry Shares who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Share Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with this Section 2.6 shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.4(a)(iii) of this Agreement.

If any Company Share Certificate or Book-Entry Share has not been surrendered prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Time (or immediately before such earlier date on which Per Share Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Body), any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Company share Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall, to the extent permitted by Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. In the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason and any cash has been transmitted to the Paying Agent, such cash shall promptly be returned to Parent.

(vii)                           The Paying Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund, as directed by Parent, on a daily basis; provided that (i) no such investment shall relieve Parent or the Paying Agent from making the payments required by this Agreement, including the obligation to deposit additional funds with the Paying Agent to cover any deficiency in the Exchange Fund, as provided in Section 2 and (ii) such investments shall be: (x) marketable obligations of, or obligations fully and directly guaranteed by, the United States, which obligations have a maturity of not more than 90 days; (y) repurchase obligations with a term of not more than ten days for underlying securities of the types described in the preceding clause (x) entered into with any bank organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, the commercial paper of which bank is rated A-2 or better by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group or Prime-2 or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.; or (z) money market funds (including tax-free funds) registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time, which have the highest rating available from a nationally recognized rating agency (e.g., AAA from Standard & Poor’s).

To the extent that such amounts are so withheld by a Payor, (i) such withheld amounts shall be remitted by the Payor to the applicable Governmental Body prior to the last day on which such transfer is required to be made, and (ii) such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom or to which such amounts would otherwise have been paid. To the extent Parent, the Surviving Company, the Paying Agent and Merger Sub withholds any amounts with respect to Israeli taxes, it will issue to the affected Person, as soon as practicable, a certificate of withholding in customary form.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (a) above, with respect to Israeli Taxes, the consideration payable to each Company Shareholder shall be retained by the Paying Agent for the benefit of each such Company Shareholder for a period of up to one-hundred eighty (180) days from Closing, unless Parent or Paying Agent is otherwise instructed explicitly by the ITA (the “Withholding Drop Date”) (during which time no Payor shall make any payments to any Company Shareholder and withhold any amounts for Israeli Taxes from the payments deliverable pursuant to this Agreement, except as provided below and during which time each Company Shareholder may obtain a Valid Tax Certificate). If a Company Shareholder delivers, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a Valid Tax Certificate to Payor, then the deduction and withholding of any Israeli Taxes shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Tax Certificate and the balance of the payment that is not withheld shall be paid to such Company Shareholder concurrently therewith subject to any non-Israeli withholding which is applicable to the payment (if any). If any Company Shareholder (i) does not provide Payor with a Valid Tax Certificate, by no later than three (3) Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request with Payor to release his portion of the consideration prior to the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Valid Tax Certificate at or before such time, then the amount to be withheld from such Company Shareholder’s portion of the consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as reasonably determined by Parent which amount shall be increased by the interest plus linkage differences as defined in Section 159A of the Israeli Tax Ordinance for the time period between the fifteenth (15th) calendar day of the month following the month during which the Closing occurs and the time the relevant payment is made.

21

(c)                                  Any withholding made in New Israeli Shekels with respect to payments made hereunder in dollars shall be calculated based on a conversion rate in such manner as the Payor reasonably determines to be in compliance with applicable Law and any currency conversion commissions will be borne by the applicable payment recipient and deducted from payments to be made to such payment recipient.

The Company shall promptly (but in no event later than two (2) Business Days after the date of this Agreement) revoke, terminate or withdraw access of any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub and their Representatives) to any data room (virtual or actual) containing any non-public information with respect to the Company or the Acquired Companies in connection with an Acquisition Proposal.

(b)           Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 5.4, the Company agrees that none of the Acquired Companies shall, and it shall not authorize or permit the Acquired Companies’ Representatives to, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate, seek, entertain, encourage, facilitate, support or induce any inquiry with respect to, or the making, submission or announcement of, any Acquisition Proposal or any offer, proposal, inquiry or indication of interest that could reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Transaction, (ii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding or relating to, or furnish to any Person any nonpublic information that would reasonably be expected to be used for the purposes of formulating or with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) engage in discussions or negotiations with any Person relating to an Acquisition Proposal, except to notify such Person as to the existence of these provisions, (iv) approve, adopt, endorse or recommend to its shareholders or any other Person any Acquisition Proposal, (v) enter into any letter of intent or similar document or any agreement, commitment or understanding providing for or contemplating any Acquisition Proposal or a transaction contemplated thereby, or (vi) furnish to any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub or any designees of Parent or Merger Sub) any non-public information relating to the Company or any of the Acquired Companies, or afford to any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub or any designees of Parent or Merger Sub) access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company or any of the Acquired Companies, in each such case that has made, submitted or announced, or would reasonably be expected to make, submit or announce, or with the intent to induce the making, submission or announcement of, or the intent to encourage, facilitate or assist the making, submission or announcement of, an Acquisition Proposal. The Company agrees that any violation of the restrictions set forth in Section 5.4 by the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Representatives shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement by the Company.

(c)           Promptly, but in any event within twenty-four (24) hours, after receipt by the Company or any of the Acquired Companies of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or inquiry which the Company reasonably believes would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall provide Parent with written notice of the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry. After receipt of the Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, the Company shall promptly (and with respect to any changes to any such Acquisition Proposal in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours after the occurrence of such changes) keep Parent informed in all material respects of the status and details (including any amendments or proposed amendments (including any withdrawal thereof)) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry.

(d)           If, in the absence of any violation of Sections 5.4(a) - (c), after the date hereof and prior to the Company General Meeting, (y) the Company receives an unsolicited, bona fide written Acquisition Proposal (for purposes of the procedures set forth in this Section 5.4(d), any Acquisition Proposal received prior to the date hereof and which is still outstanding as of the

68

date hereof shall be deemed to have been received immediately after execution and delivery hereof and any amendment to the terms of an Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal) which constitutes or may constitute a Superior Proposal, and (z) the Company Board has concluded in good faith, based on the advice of its outside legal counsel, and after taking into account the legal, financial, fiduciary and other aspects of such unsolicited bona fide written Acquisition Proposal, that the failure to take some or all of the actions set forth in clause (i) or clause (ii) below with respect to such Acquisition Proposal would reasonably be expected to constitute a breach of its fiduciary obligations to the Company’s shareholders under the Israeli Companies Law and, in addition, in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary obligations, the Company’s board of directors may also consider and act on the basis of Delaware Legal Requirements, the Company shall promptly, but in any event in less than twenty-four hours following the time of such conclusion (but in any event at least twenty-four hours prior to taking the actions set forth in (i) and (ii) below), provide to Parent written notice that shall state expressly (A) that it has received an Acquisition Proposal which constitutes or may constitute a Superior Proposal, (B) that the Company Board has made the conclusions set forth in clause (z) above and (C) the identity of the party making such Acquisition Proposal and the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal (unless such Acquisition Proposal is in written form, in which case the Company shall give Parent a copy thereof including any modifications thereto) (such notice, the “Superior Proposal Notice”) and may then take the following actions:

(i)            make available nonpublic information to the third party making such Acquisition Proposal, provided, that (x) prior to so making available, the Company receives from the third party an executed confidentiality agreement containing terms no more favorable to the third party than the terms under that certain agreement dated June 1, 2015 between the Company and Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), and, (y) subject to applicable antitrust laws and regulations relating to the exchange of information, contemporaneously with making available any such nonpublic information to such third party, the Company makes available a copy of such nonpublic information to Parent hereunder (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously so made available); and

(ii)           engage in discussions and/or negotiations with the third party with respect to the Acquisition Proposal.

(e)           In response to the receipt of a Superior Proposal that has not been withdrawn and continues to constitute a Superior Proposal after compliance by the Company with this Section 5.4(e), the Company Board may (y) withhold or withdraw the Company Board Recommendation or (z) approve, adopt, endorse or recommend to its shareholders a Superior Proposal (any of the foregoing actions, whether by the Company Board or a committee thereof, a “Change of Recommendation”), only if all of the following conditions are met:

(i)            the Company General Meeting has not occurred;

(ii)           the Company Board has concluded in good faith, after effecting all required actions under subsection (iii) below and based on advice of its outside legal counsel, that, in light of such Superior Proposal, the failure of the board of directors to effect a Change of Recommendation would constitute a breach of its fiduciary obligations to its shareholders under the Israeli Companies Law and, in addition, in order to determine the appropriate standards that would apply to such fiduciary obligations, the Company’s board of directors may also consider and act on the basis of Delaware Legal Requirements; and

69

(iii)          the Company Board has (x) provided to Parent three Business Days’ prior written notice of its intent to effect a Change of Recommendation (which notice shall include reasonable details of the applicable Superior Proposal and the manner in which it intends to effect the Change of Recommendation), provided that such three Business Day period shall be extended for an additional three Business Days following each modification of the financial or other material terms of such Superior Proposal so long as the Company Board determines that such modified proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, (y) subject to applicable antitrust laws and regulations relating to the exchange of information, made available to Parent all materials and information made available to the Person making the Superior Proposal in connection with such Superior Proposal, and (z) for such three (3) Business Day period (plus each applicable extension) following the delivery to Parent of such notice and the provision of the materials and information referred to in (y) above, if requested by Parent, the Company shall make its Representatives available to discuss with Parent’s Representatives any proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that the Acquisition Proposal that constituted a Superior Proposal would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal.

(f)            Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict the Company from making such disclosures as are necessary or required, based on the advice of the Company’s outside legal counsel, by Israeli or U.S. federal securities laws; provided that any such disclosure that constitutes a Change of Recommendation will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 9.

(g)           The Company shall not, and shall cause the Acquired Companies and its and their respective Representatives not to, enter into any Contract with any Person that would restrict the Company’s ability to provide to Parent the information described in Section 5.4(c), and neither the Company nor any of the Acquired Companies is currently party to or bound by any Contract that prohibits the Company from providing the information described in Section 5.4(c) to Parent.  The Company shall not, and shall cause the Acquired Companies not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify, or grant permission under, or fail to enforce, any standstill, non-compete, non-solicitation or confidentiality provision in any Contract to which it or any of the Acquired Companies are or become a party relating to an Acquisition Proposal (other than any such Contract with Parent or Merger Sub).

5.5          Employee Matters.

(a)           Parent hereby acknowledges that the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be a “change of control” (or similar phrase) for purposes of all Company Share Plans, Benefit Plans and employment agreements, as applicable.

(b)           For a period of one year following the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) provide each employee who was employed by the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time and continues to be employed by the Company throughout the Effective Time and thereafter by the Surviving

70

Company (“Continuing Employee”) with  employee benefits (excluding equity based benefits, but including allocations to provident funds and education funds) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the other employee benefits provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time. Nothing in the foregoing shall prevent the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries from terminating the employment or amending the employment terms (including any existing policy) of any Continuing Employee at any time following the Effective Time.

(c)           To the extent that a Company Plan or Parent Plan is made available to any Continuing Employee on or following the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) cause to be granted to such Continuing Employee credit for all service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and entitlement to benefits where length of service is relevant (including for purposes of vacation and sick leave accrual and severance pay entitlement); provided, however, that such service need not be credited to the extent that it would result in duplication of coverage or employee benefits.  In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) each Continuing Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all Parent Plans to the extent coverage under any such Parent Plan replaces coverage under a comparable Company Plan in which such Continuing Employee participates immediately before the Effective Time; and (ii) for purposes of each Parent Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision and/or disability benefits to any continuing employee, the Surviving Company shall make its best effort to cause all waiting periods, pre-existing condition exclusions, evidence of insurability requirements and actively-at-work or similar requirements of such Parent Plan to be waived for such continuing employee and his or her covered dependents, and the Surviving Company shall make its best effort to cause any eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Company Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding Parent Plan begins to be given full credit under such Parent Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Parent Plan, and (iii) credit the accounts of such Continuing Employees under any Parent Plan which is a flexible spending plan with any unused balance in the account of such Continuing Employee under the applicable Company Plan.  Any vacation, sick leave or paid time off accrued but unused by a continuing employee as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be credited to such continuing employee following the Effective Time, and, subject to the last sentence of subsection (b) above, shall be subject to accrual limits or other forfeiture as were in the applicable Company Plan as of immediately prior to the Effective date.

(d)           No provision of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any employee, any beneficiary or dependents thereof, or any collective bargaining representative thereof, with respect to the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided to any employee by the Company, Parent, or its Affiliates or the Surviving Company or under any benefit plan which the Company, Parent or its Affiliates or the Surviving Company may maintain.

71

6.1          Merger Proposal. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, (a) the Company and Merger Sub shall cause a merger proposal (in the Hebrew language) in the form of Exhibit A (the “Merger Proposal”) to be executed in accordance with Section 316 of the Israeli Companies Law and filed with the Companies Registrar, and (b) the Company shall call the Company General Meeting. Each of the Company and Merger Sub shall cause a copy of the Merger Proposal to be delivered to each of their secured creditors no later than three days after the date on which the Merger Proposal is delivered to the Companies Registrar, and shall promptly inform its non-secured creditors of the Merger Proposal and its contents in accordance with Section 318 of the Israeli Companies Law. Promptly after the Company and Merger Sub shall have complied with the preceding sentence, the Company and Merger Sub shall inform the Companies Registrar, in accordance with Section 317(b) of the Israeli Companies Law, that notice was given to their respective creditors under Section 318 of the Israeli Companies Law. In addition to the above, each of the Company and, if applicable, Merger Sub, shall (i) publish a notice 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 offices or Merger Sub’s registered offices, as applicable, and at such other locations as the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, may determine, in (A) two daily Hebrew newspapers circulated in Israel, on the day that the Merger Proposal is submitted to the Companies Registrar, (B) a newspaper circulated in New York City, no later than three Business Days following the day on which the Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar, and (C) in such other manner as may be required by applicable law and regulations; (ii) within four 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 regulations promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law) of which the Company or Merger Sub, as applicable, is aware, 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 subsection (i) above; (iii) send to the “workers committee” 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 subsection (i)(A) above), no later than three Business Days following the day on which the Merger Proposal was submitted to the Companies Registrar; (iv) not later than two days after the date on which the approval of the Merger by the Company’s shareholders at the Company General Meeting is received, the Company shall (in accordance with Section 317(b) of Israeli Companies Law and the regulations thereunder) inform the Companies Registrar

72

of such approval, and (v) in accordance with the customary practice of the Companies Registrar, the Company and Merger Sub shall request, following coordination with Merger Sub, that the Companies Registrar declares the Merger effective and issue the Certificate of Merger upon such date as the Company and Merger Sub shall advise the Companies Registrar. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, it is the intention of the Parties that the Merger shall be declared effective and the Certificate of Merger shall be issued on the Closing Date, as a condition to the Closing taking place. For purposes of this Section 6.1, “business day” shall have the meaning set forth in the Merger Regulations 5760-2000 promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law.

6.2          Proxy Statement.

(a)           As promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than the earlier of fourteenth (14th) Business Day after the date hereof or prior to the filing or furnishing of any proxy statement in connection with any other Acquisition Transaction, the Company shall prepare the Proxy Statement and cause all required filings to be filed with the ISA and furnished to the SEC. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts (i) to cause the Proxy Statement to comply with all applicable Legal Requirements and (ii) to respond promptly to any comments of the SEC or its staff and any comments of the ISA or its staff. Prior to filing the Proxy Statement (or any amendment or modification thereto) with the ISA or the SEC, the Company (x) shall provide Parent with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any drafts of the Proxy Statement and related correspondence and filings, (y) shall consider in good faith to include in such drafts, correspondence and filings all comments reasonably proposed by Parent, and (z) to the extent reasonably practicable and not prohibited under applicable Law, the Company and its outside legal counsel shall permit Parent and its outside counsel to participate in all communications, if any, with the ISA, the SEC or NASDAQ, or their respective staff, as applicable (including all meetings and telephone conferences) relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. If any event relating to any of the Acquired Companies occurs, or if the Company becomes aware of any information, that should be disclosed in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, then the Company shall promptly inform Parent thereof and the Company shall, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 6.2 prepare such amendment or supplement as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable and to the extent required by applicable Law, cause such amendment or supplement to be promptly distributed to the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall not include in the Proxy Statement any information with respect to Parent or its Affiliates, unless the form and content thereof shall have been consented to in writing by Parent prior to such inclusion and Parent agrees to provide any such information required to be so included under applicable Law.

(b)           Except in the case of a Change of Recommendation, the Company shall include in the Proxy Statement the Company Board Recommendation and a copy (in its entirety) of any fairness opinion obtained by the Company Board in connection with the approval by the Company Board of the Merger.

(a)           Immediately after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, but in no event later than the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date hereof, the Company shall take all action necessary or required under all applicable Legal Requirements to publish the notice of the Company’s shareholders meeting for voting upon the proposal to approve the Merger (the “Company General Meeting”). Subject to the notice requirements of the Israeli Companies Law and the Articles of Association of the Company, the Company General Meeting shall be held (on a date selected by the Company in consultation with Parent) as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event no later than 35 days after the date of the notice to the Company General Meeting.

Once the Company has established a record date for the Company General Meeting, the Company shall not, except in the case of a Change of Recommendation,  change such record date or establish a different record date for the Company General Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent unless required to do so by applicable Law (including, in the event that the Company General Meeting is adjourned or postponed in accordance with this Section 6.3(a), by implementing such adjournment or postponement in such a way that the Company does not establish a new record date for the Company General Meeting, as so adjourned or postponed, to the extent permissible under applicable Law).

(b)           Subject to Section 5.4, the Proxy Statement shall include a statement to the effect that the Company Board recommends that the Company’s shareholders vote to approve this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions at the Company General Meeting (the recommendation of the Company Board that the Company’s shareholders vote to approve this Agreement, the Merger and the other Transactions being referred to as the “Company Board Recommendation”). Subject to Section 5.4, the Company Board Recommendation shall not be withdrawn, qualified or modified in a manner adverse to Parent, and no resolution by the Company Board or any committee thereof to withdraw, qualify or modify the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent shall be adopted.

74

(d)           The Company shall, through the Company Board, use reasonable commercial efforts to solicit from the Company shareholders proxies in favor of the approval of this Agreement and to obtain the Required Company Shareholder Vote. The Company shall, upon the reasonable request of Parent, advise Parent on a daily basis on each of the last ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the Company General Meeting (unless otherwise agreed to by Parent) as to the aggregate tally of proxies received by the Company with respect to the Required Company Shareholder Vote. In the event that Parent, or any Person referred to in Section 320(c) of the Israeli Companies Law shall cast any votes in respect of the Merger, Parent shall, and with respect to any Person, if Parent is aware of such vote it shall, prior to such vote, disclose to the Company the respective interests of Parent or such Person in such shares so voted.

6.4          Regulatory Approvals.

(a)           Each party to this Agreement shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to deliver and file, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, each notice, report or other document required to be delivered by such party to or filed by such party with any Governmental Body with respect to the Merger, and to submit promptly any additional information requested by such Governmental Body. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to Section 6.8(b):

The parties to this Agreement will consult and reasonably cooperate with one another, and will consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any analysis, appearance, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any investigation or Legal Proceeding relating to the Merger (including any Transaction Litigation); provided that, to the extent permissible under applicable law, Parent shall also have the right to participate in the defense of any such Transaction Litigation and the Company shall not settle any such litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Body or by any investigation or Legal Requirement, in connection with any such investigation or Legal Proceeding under or relating to any antitrust or fair trade or merger control law, each party hereto will permit authorized Representatives of the other party to be present at each meeting or conference relating to any such investigation or Legal Proceeding and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any Governmental Body in connection with any such investigation or Legal Proceeding.

The parties shall provide CFIUS with any additional or supplemental information requested by CFIUS or its member agencies during the Exon-Florio review process that is reasonably available to the parties as promptly as practicable, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide that information within the amount of time allowed by CFIUS.  The parties, in cooperation with each other, shall take all commercially reasonable steps advisable, necessary or desirable to finally and successfully complete the Exon-Florio review process as promptly as practicable.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall, as a condition to receiving written confirmation by CFIUS that it has completed its review (or, if applicable, investigation) and determined that there are no unresolved national security concerns with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, be required to agree to sell, divest, dispose of or hold separate any material assets or businesses, or otherwise take or commit to take any action that could reasonably be expected to cause it to incur any material cost or expense.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent requested by CFIUS, Parent shall, and shall cause any Affiliate of Parent designated by CFIUS to, become a party to the National Security Agreement, dated October 27, 2014, among the Company, Tilera Corporation (now known as EZchip Semiconductor, Inc.) and the U.S. Government, represented by the Department of Defense and the Office of Science and Technology Policy as lead agencies on behalf of CFIUS, or enter into a substantially similar agreement.

6.5          Company Compensatory Awards.

(a)           At the Effective Time by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each Company Option and Company RSU (each such award, a “Company Compensatory Award”) which is not vested and, as applicable, exercisable and that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding Company Compensatory Awards which vest and become exercisable as a result of the Merger) (each, a “Unvested Company Compensatory Award”), shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically at the Effective Time into an option or, restricted share unit award, as the case may be, denominated in Parent Ordinary Shares and which has other terms and conditions substantially identical to those of the related Company Compensatory Award except that (i) the number of Parent Ordinary Shares subject to each such award shall be determined by multiplying the number of Company Shares subject to such Unvested Company Compensatory Award immediately prior to the Effective Time by a fraction (the “Award Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is the Per Share Merger Consideration and the denominator of which is the average closing price of a Parent Ordinary Share on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date on which the Effective Time occurs (rounded up to the

76

nearest whole share) (the “Assumed Consideration”) and (ii) if applicable, the exercise or purchase price per Parent Ordinary Share (rounded downwards to the nearest whole cent) shall equal (x) the per share exercise or purchase price per Company Share otherwise purchasable pursuant to such Unvested Company Compensatory Award immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (y) the Award Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that in no case shall the exchange of a Company Option be performed in a manner that is not in compliance with the applicable adjustment requirements of Section 424 and Section 409A of the Code. From and after the Effective Time, all Unvested Company Compensatory Awards shall no longer be outstanding and shall cease to exist, and each holder of an Unvested Company Compensatory Award shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto or arising therefrom, except the right to receive the Assumed Consideration payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.5 shall restrict any holder of a Company Compensatory Award from exercising any vested portion of the Company Compensatory Award into Company Shares, at any time prior to the Effective Time.

(b)           At the Effective Time by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each Company Compensatory Award, which is vested and, as applicable, exercisable and that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including Company Compensatory Awards of non-employee members of the Company Board and other holders of Company Compensatory Awards, which vest and become exercisable as a result of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each a “Vested Company Compensatory Award”), shall, be canceled at the Effective Time and shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, an amount in cash, without interest thereon, determined by multiplying (1) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the applicable exercise price (if any) of such Vested Company Compensatory Award, by (2) the number of Company Shares subject to such Vested Company Compensatory Award (the “Vested Award Consideration”). Payment of such Vested Award Consideration shall be subject to all applicable deductions and withholdings required by Law to be withheld in respect of such payment. From and after the Effective Time, all Vested Company Compensatory Awards shall no longer be outstanding and shall cease to exist, and each holder of a Vested Company Compensatory Award shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto or arising therefrom, except the right to receive the Vested Award Consideration payable hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise price per Company Share for any Vested Company Compensatory Award is equal to or greater than the Per Share Merger Consideration, such Vested Company Compensatory Award shall be canceled immediately prior to the Effective Time without payment of consideration. The amount of cash each holder of Vested Company Compensatory Award is entitled to receive for the Vested Company Compensatory Award held by such holder shall be rounded up to the nearest cent and computed after aggregating cash amounts for all Vested Company Compensatory Awards held by such holder.

(c)           The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to provide that following the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Compensatory Award or any participant in any Company Share Plan, or other Benefit Plan or employee benefit arrangement of the Company or under any employment agreement shall have any right hereunder to acquire any Company Shares, any interest in Company Shares (including any “phantom” stock or stock appreciation rights) or any other interest in the equity of the Acquired Companies, any of their Subsidiaries or the Surviving Company.

77

(d)           As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Share Plans) shall adopt such resolutions to effect the provisions of Section 6.5.

(e)           As soon as reasonably practicable after the execution of this Agreement, and no later than five (5) Business Days after the date hereof, the Company shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and accountants, in coordination with Parent and its advisors, to prepare and file with the Israel Tax Authority an application for a ruling in relation to the assumption by Parent of Company Compensatory Awards granted to Israeli employees, service providers and officers of the Company which will provide, among other things that: (i) the assumption of the Unvested Company Compensatory Awards will not result in a taxable event with respect to such Company Compensatory Awards pursuant to Section 3(i) of the Israeli Tax Ordinance or Section 102, and with respect to such Unvested Company Compensatory Awards subject to Section 102 that tax continuity shall apply including with regard to the requisite holding period which will be deemed to have begun at the time of the grant of Company Compensatory Awards and with regard to the classification of the gain; (ii) the payments made in respect to Shares issued upon exercise or vesting of Vested Company Compensatory Awards granted under the capital gains route of Section 102 and held by the Section 102 Trustee, shall not constitute a violation of Section 102 if deposited with the Section 102 Trustee and released only after the lapse of the minimum trust period required by Section 102 (the “102 Trust Period”); and (iii) Parent and anyone acting on its behalf shall be exempt from withholding tax in relation to any payments made to the Section 102 Trustee or the Paying Agent; (which ruling may be subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling) (the “Israeli Award Tax Ruling”). Each of 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 Israeli Award Tax Ruling. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Company shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable law to obtain the Israeli Award Tax Ruling, as promptly as practicable. To avoid doubt, the final text of the Award Tax Ruling or the Interim Award Ruling shall be subject to the prior written confirmation of Parent or its counsel, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the Israeli Award Tax Ruling is not granted prior to Closing, the Company shall seek to receive prior to the Closing an interim tax ruling confirming that Parent and anyone acting on its behalf shall be exempt from Israeli withholding tax in relation to any payments made to the Section 102 Trustee (the “Interim Award Ruling”). In the event that the Israeli Award Tax Ruling has not been received by the Closing, Parent shall delay the assumption of the Company Compensatory Awards held by Israeli residents until receipt of either the Israeli Award Tax Ruling or a separate confirmation from the Israel Tax Authority that the assumption will not constitute a tax event in Israel. In the event that the Israeli Award Tax Ruling has not been received within 180 days of the Closing, and unless otherwise instructed by the Israel Tax Authority, Parent will assume the Company Compensatory Awards as provided above and shall withhold any amount that may be required under law.

78

Parent shall take such actions as are necessary for the assumption of Unvested Company Compensatory Award at the Effective Time, including the reservation, issuance and listing of Purchaser Ordinary Shares, as is necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by Section 6.5(a). Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (to the extent available) with respect to the Purchaser Ordinary Shares subject to such assumed Unvested Company Compensatory Award and shall have such registration statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date (but not later than 10 Business Days following the Effective Date). Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement for so long as the Company Compensatory Awards remain outstanding. In addition, Parent shall seek to obtain an exemption from the ISA in connection with the assumption of the Unvested Company Compensatory Award.

6.6          Tax Ruling. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, the Company shall instruct its Israeli counsel, advisors and accountants to prepare and file with the Israel Tax Authority an application in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent for a ruling, in coordination with Parent and its advisors, that (i) with respect to non-Israeli residents (as defined in the Israeli Tax Ordinance or as will be determined by the Israel Tax Authority), (A) exempting Parent, the Paying 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 Paying 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 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; and (ii) with respect to Israeli residents (as defined in the Israeli Tax Ordinance or as will be determined by the Israel Tax Authority) (other than Section 102 Shares) (x) exempting Parent, the Paying 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 Paying 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 from which Tax is to be withheld (if any), the rate or rates of withholding to be applied (the “Withholding Tax Ruling”). Each of the Company and Parent shall cause its respective Israeli counsel 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 submission that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Withholding Tax Ruling. To the extent that prior to the Closing an interim Withholding Tax Ruling shall have been obtained, then all references herein to the Withholding Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such interim ruling, until such time that a final definitive Withholding Tax Ruling is obtained.

6.7          Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a)           From and after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to fulfill and honor the obligations of the Company pursuant to any indemnification agreements listed in Part 6.7(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule between the Company, on the one hand, and the officers and directors of the Company and the other Acquired Companies (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”), on the other hand (the “Indemnification Agreements”), which agreements shall survive the Merger and continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms as in effect on the date of this Agreement, and any indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses provisions under the Articles of Association of the Company as in effect immediately prior to the date hereof; provided that such obligations shall be subject to any limitation imposed from time to time by Legal Requirements.

79

(b)           During the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Articles of Association of the Surviving Company to contain provisions with respect to indemnification and exemption that are at least as favorable to the Indemnified Persons as those contained in the Company’s Articles of Association as in effect on the date hereof, which provisions will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of seven years from the Effective Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of the Indemnified Persons thereunder, unless such modification is required by Legal Requirements.

(c)           At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall have the right to purchase a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering the persons who were directors and officers of the Company and the other Acquired Companies immediately prior to the Effective Time, with respect to their acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time, and that by its terms shall provide coverage until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Effective Time, such purchase shall be in consultation with Parent and, if requested by Parent, the Company shall work with Parent’s insurance brokers in connection with the purchase of such “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. In the event the Company purchases such “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy prior to the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall (and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to) maintain such “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy in full force and effect and continue to honor their respective obligations thereunder for so long as such “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy shall be maintained in full force and effect.

(d)           If Parent or the Surviving Company or any of their successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other person and shall not be the continuing or Surviving Company or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Surviving Company shall assume all of the obligations of Parent and/or the Surviving Company set forth in this Section 6.7.

(e)           The rights of each Indemnified Person under this Section 6.7 shall survive consummation of the Merger and are intended to benefit, and shall be enforceable by, each Indemnified Person. Parent shall pay all expenses, including attorney fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified Person in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations under this Section 6.7, to the extent such Indemnified Person shall be the prevailing party in the enforcement action.

This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

89

10.2        Waiver.

(a)           No failure on the part of any party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of any party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy.

(b)           No party shall be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of such party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

10.4        Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, that the Confidentiality Agreement shall not be superseded and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.5        Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be solely governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to any other choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Israel or otherwise) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Israel. Any dispute arising under or in relation to this Agreement shall be resolved in, and the sole and exclusive jurisdiction shall be with, the competent court located in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, and each of the parties hereby submits irrevocably to the jurisdiction of such courts. The parties hereby (i) consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such parties and, to the extent permitted by law, over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 10.9 of this Agreement or in such other manner as may be permitted by law shall be valid and sufficient service thereof, (ii) agree that they will not attempt to deny or defeat such jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (iii) agree that they will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the Merger in any court other than the court located in Tel Aviv-Jaffa.

Except as otherwise 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.

10.7        Attorneys’ Fees. In any action at law or suit in equity to enforce this Agreement or the rights of any of the parties hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit shall be entitled to receive a reasonable sum for its attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in such action or suit.

10.8        Assignability. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable by and inure solely to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the Company’s rights hereunder may be assigned by the Company without the prior written consent of Parent, and any attempted assignment of this Agreement or any of such rights by the Company without such consent shall be void and of no effect. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto) any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except for the rights of the holders of the Company Shares and the Company Compensatory Awards to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration and the rights of the Indemnified Persons pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.7 .
