As collateral security for the full and punctual payment or performance when due (whether at stated maturity, acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Liabilities by the Company, the Company hereby, absolutely and unconditionally charges and pledges in favour of the Lender(s) and their successors, by way of first ranking (subject only to the Company Permitted Security Interests) floating charge and pledge all of the Company’s property, assets and rights, now or at any time belonging to or acquired by the Company, and the profits and benefits derived therefrom, including without derogating from the generality of the aforementioned, the property, assets and rights set forth below (hereinafter jointly and severally, the “Pledged Assets”):

For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledged Assets shall include the Intellectual Property as defined in Appendix A of this Debenture. However, since a certain portion of the Intellectual Property was funded by the Israeli Innovation Authority (the “IIA” and the “Funded IP”, respectively), the charges and pledges of such Funded IP in favour of the Lender(s) hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the IIA, and this Debenture shall be deemed to apply to such Funded IP only following the IIA’s approval.

For the purposes hereof, “Security Interest” shall mean (i) any mortgage, charge, pledge, lien, hypothecation, assignment by way of security, security interest, title retention or other encumbrance of any kind securing, or any right securing, any obligation of any person, or any other agreement or arrangement having a similar effect; (ii) any arrangement under which moneys or claims to, or the benefit of, a bank or other account, may be set-off or made subject to a combination of accounts so as to affect payments of sums owed or payable to any person; and/or (iii) any other type of preferential arrangement having similar effect.

The Company declares and agrees that the Security Interests created by this Debenture and the powers conferred hereto, shall not be prejudiced or affected by any other agreement between the Company and the Lender(s).

The rights and remedies of the Lender(s) and any Receiver provided by the pledges created under this Debenture are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by any applicable law. The exercise by the Lender(s) of any of the rights or remedies under this Debenture shall not release the Company from any of its liabilities or obligations under any agreement between the Lender(s) and the Company; in particular, the application of the Pledged Assets to satisfy part of the Secured Liabilities shall not release the Company from its obligation to pay and perform the unsatisfied part of the Secured Liabilities.

13.2The Company hereby ratifies and confirms and agrees to ratify and confirm whatever any such attorney as is mentioned in Section 13.1 above shall do in the exercise, in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.1, of all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions referred to in.
