|
(B) |
And Microdel is in the midst of actions the purpose of which is to raise funds for the Company, primarily by establishing a new company in the USA (hereinafter, “the Offered Company”), which will own all of the Company’s share capital (the shareholders of the Offered Company were, on the eve of the stock issue, identical to the shareholders
in the Company on the eve of the stock issue) and whose shares will be registered for trading “over the counter” on the NASDAQ exchange in the United States where the source of the vast majority of the issue funds shall be from institutional entities in the USA which will invest sums of money in the Offered Company of at least USD 3 million according to a company value, prior to the money, of USD 12 million (hereinafter, “the Offering”),

|
(C) |
And the parties are interested in setting forth in writing their agreement in principle regarding the Offering process, its financing, and the significance derived therefrom following its success or in the event, God forbid, of its failure. |
|
|
Therefore the parties have agreed and stipulated as follows: |
|
1. |
The preamble to this agreement shall constitute an integral part thereof. |
|

Total Investment by Microdel in the Company |
|
|
The Parties hereby agree that the total monies (in money and monetary equivalent) that Microdel shall invest in the Company, as of the date upon which this Agreement is signed, shall be the sum of USD 314,000 (hereinafter, “Microdel’s Investment Sum”). Microdel’s Investment Sum includes USD 100,000 for moulds whose production
was funded by Microdel and which are located overseas. Microdel undertakes to see to it that the Company is provided with undamaged and usable moulds within 90 days of the signing of this contract, pursuant to which the investment sum of USD 100,000 shall be credited to Microdel. In the event the moulds referred to in the Primary Agreement shall arrive from overseas damaged, or fail to arrive by the date noted above, then the sum of USD 100,000 shall be deducted from Microdel’s Investment
Sum and the number of unconditional shares, as described below, to which Microdel would be entitled to receive in the Company and in the Offered Company (in the event the Offering is successful) shall be reduced accordingly. In any event the number of unconditional shares according to this paragraph shall be updated prior to the actual Offering. |
|
3. |

|
3.1. |
In exchange for Microdel’s Investment Sum in the Company, Microdel shall be entitled to a number of shares of stock such that, according to the Primary Agreement, it shall be entitled to 1,878 ordinary shares in the Company, following the formulation of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and once all the Company’s shares have become
ordinary shares with equal rights according to the resolution to equalize the share rights, as described below in section 6.1.1. Since Microdel has undertaken to assume all of the Offering expenses (except for the Company’s conditional participation sum, as understood below), 1,503 ordinary shares shall be deducted in advance from this number of shares, which reflects an investment in the Company of USD 150,000 based on a company value of USD 4.5 million, shares that are to be allocated to the
private investors as this is understood below; such that Microdel shall receive an allocation from the Company, subject to the provisions of section 2 above, of 75 ordinary shares (hereinafter, “the Unconditional Shares”). |

The number of Conditional Shares shall also include an investment in the amount of USD 10,000 per month (for the period between April 2009 and the end of November 2009, that is, the
sum of USD 80,000), which Microdel has undertaken to invest in the Company for its current activity as stated below in section 8. The Parties hereby give irrevocable instructions to the Trustee to act as follows with regard to the Conditional Shares: |

Should the Offering fail – The Trustee shall transfer the Conditional Shares to the Company’s current shareholders (at the time this contract is signed, except for Microdel) in exchange for NIS 0.01 per share, in accordance with the relative share of the current shareholders in the Company’s shares, such that this share shall be calculated
among the present shareholders (except for Microdel), among themselves. |

|
3.2.4. |
Microdel shall not be entitled to request any relief against the Trustee, including neither an order to act nor an order to desist from acting, and Microdel undertakes not to petition the courts with a motion and/or an appeal seeking to prevent the transfer of the Conditional Shares from the Trustee to the Current Shareholders in the event of the Failure
of the Offering. Furthermore, and without derogating from the generality of the above, Microdel shall not be entitled to prevent the transfer of the Conditional Shares from the Trustee to the Current Shareholders for any reason whatsoever, including a claim against the Current Shareholders and/or against the Company and/or its officers, and in any event of a Failure of the Offering, whatever the reason and whoever may be at fault, the Conditional Shares shall be transferred to the Current Shareholders
as stated above without Microdel having any dispute and/or claim in this regard towards the Company, its shareholders, its managers and officers. |
|
3.2.5. |
Voting rights of holders of the Conditional Shares – Notwithstanding the provisions contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, it is hereby agreed that during the interim period (that is, the period until the final date, as understood below), in any case where a vote is needed
by virtue of the Conditional Shares at a general meeting of shareholders, the Trustee shall vote by virtue thereof provided the Conditional Shares are held by him, in accordance with a document signed by holders of most of the shares held by the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel), (hereinafter, “Voting Order”), and the parties hereby irrevocably instruct the Trustee to vote by virtue of the Conditional Shares in accordance with the Voting
Order that shall be given as stated. During the interim period, and provided the Conditional Shares as held by the Trustee shall not endow him the right to appoint a director to the Company’s board of directors. Only after the Conditional Shares have been transferred to Microdel (following the Success of the Offering) or to the Current Shareholders (following the Failure of the Offering) as relevant, shall the holders of the Conditional Shares enjoy all of the rights endowed to those
shareholders according to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. |

|
3.2.6. |
Should the Offered Company be established, the Trustee shall hold in trust that quantity of Conditional Shares in the Offered Company, and all of the provisions above and below shall also apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Conditional Shares in the Offered Company. |

In any event, should the Trustee fail to act in accordance with the above the Company shall be entitled, without derogating from any other relief that may be available to the Current Shareholders, to forfeit the Conditional Shares and turn them into deferred shares without rights; and Microdel hereby gives its irrevocable consent to this procedure should
the Company’s board of directors and Current Shareholders decide, by a majority, to take such measures. It is hereby agreed that Microdel and its board of directors, as relevant, shall be prohibited from voting at the general meeting and at the Company’s board of directors regarding any decision that relates to the forfeiture of the Conditional Shares or their being turned into deferred shares. |
|
3.2.8. |
A table of Company shares that includes the Unconditional Shares and the Conditional Shares is attached to this Agreement as “Appendix 3.2.8” and is an integral part thereof. |
|

the Company shall indemnify Microdel pursuant to the said VAT from the Offering monies, provided that the Company shall be entitled to a reimbursement for Input Tax from the VAT Authorities in a manner that does not cause a monetary loss and in such a manner that the Company shall not have to pay this amount using any interim funding whatsoever. |

4. |
Time Table |
|
|
The Company, through Microdel, shall act to the best of its ability to ensure that the Offering comes about by no later than November 31, 2009 (hereinafter, “the Final Date”). If the Offering is not completed by the Final Date and the Company’s shares are not registered for trade by the Final Date, but the American attorney whose
services are being used for the purpose of the Offering shall affirm in writing, prior to the Final Date, that there is significant progress being made to promote the Offering and that he needs a bit more time, not to exceed two months, in order to complete the process while noting in his letter that it is almost certain that the Offering shall be completed within that period of time, then the Company shall agree to extend the Final Date for additional period of up to two months, provided that Microdel shall
continue to fund the Company’s current activity as stated in section 7 below. In the event of an extension as stated, the Final Date shall occur at the end of the extended period which shall be, in any event, not later than January 30, 2010. The board of directors shall be permitted, but not required, to extend the Final Date beyond January 30, 2010, provided that the decision pursuant to extending the Final Date beyond January 30, 2010 is passed with a majority of 85% of the votes
cast by the Company’s board of directors, wherein the directors appointed by Microdel shall be excluded from voting on this matter. Failure to extend the Final Date shall not be considered, in any case, as an unreasonable decision and/or for unreasonable cause, and the failure to pass this decision shall not entitle Microdel and/or any other entity (including the private investors, the consultant, the employees and service providers who were hired ahead of the Offering) to any compensation whatsoever. Should
the Company not decide to extend the Final Date beyond November 30, 2009, then the Company undertakes not to use the services of the present offering consultant for a period of 9 months from the Final Date, unless it has received authorization for this from Microdel. |
|
5. |
Offering Expenses |
|
5.1. |
Microdel undertakes to assume all of the Offering expenses, without exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, following the Success of the Offering the Company shall assume the expenses that are conditioned upon the Success of the Offering, as understood below. |
6
|
5.2. |
Since, when calculating the number of Unconditional Shares, all of the Offering expenses were taken into account, including expenses for consultants, attorneys, accountants, underwriters and other entities involved in the Offering process (and including expenses not in cash but through the offering of additional shares to entities involved in the Offering
process and including costs for personnel the Company shall hire or did hire for its current activity until the date of Offering in the amount of USD 150,000), then these expenses shall be paid by the Company provided that Microdel made sure that these monies were deposited, before assuming any undertaking towards these service providers, in a special account to be opened by the Company for this purpose and which shall be entirely dedicated to making these payments and for the purpose of continuing to finance
the Company’s activities as specified in section 8 below (hereinafter, “the Special Account”). It is hereby clarified that the Company shall not assume the Offering expenses in amounts that exceed those deposited for this purpose in the Special Account; and in any case where the Company shall assume any undertaking towards a third party at Microdel’s request, then Microdel shall indemnify the Company pursuant to any sum
the Company shall be required to pay by virtue of this undertaking beyond the sums held in the Special Account. |
|
5.3. |
It is hereby agreed by the Parties that payment of the Offering expenses as described in section 5.1 above shall be executed only from different monies received from private investors and/or from Microdel prior to the Offering (provided that the sums received from private investors [as defined below] and from Microdel prior to the Offering shall be deposited
into the Special Account). If the monies from the private investors are insufficient to pay the said expenses, Microdel shall assume the expenses without the Company being required to reimburse these amounts, whether the Offering takes place or not for any reason whatsoever, and without these expenses being considered as Microdel’s investment in the Company and without Microdel being entitled to receive pursuant thereto holdings in the Company and/or rights and/or benefits of any kind. Regardless
of the above – if, following payment of the Offering expenses and any other payment that Microdel has undertaken to pay according to this contact, there remain any monies in the Special Account after the Offering and following payment of all the payments involved in the Offering procedure and provided that the Offering was successful – these monies shall revert to Microdel. |
7
|
5.4. |
Since certain expenses pursuant to the Offering must be paid from the Company’s account and against the Company’s undertaking to pay them (for example, the American attorney Microdel selected to lead the offering process, payment of fees related to the Offering, and so on), and therefore the number of Unconditional Shares was reduced accordingly
as if Microdel had assumed these expenses (up to the sum of USD 150,000) – it is hereby agreed that the Company shall undertake to make these payments only on condition that the undertaking monies are deposited beforehand by Microdel or by the private investors, as defined below, in the Special Account. Up until the Final Date, Microdel’s representative shall have the right to sign on the Special Account together with the Company’s authorized signatories (as a second signature). Following
the determining date this signatory right shall become void and in the event of the Failure of the Offering the Company shall be entitled to use the monies in the Special Account for its own purposes, as it shall see fit, unless the provisions as stated in section 13.1 and/or 13.2 shall apply. Should the Offering be successful and all debts to third parties pursuant to the Offering process are paid, the balance of the monies in the Special Account shall revert to Microdel, as stated in section 5.3
above. |
|
5.5. |
Since it might become necessary to open an account in the USA on behalf of the Offered Company for the purpose of the Offering and to receive the Offering monies, should the opening of such an account be required the account shall be opened such that the signature rights therein shall be the same as those of the Special Account, as specified in section
5.4 above. Should the Offering be successful the signature rights to the said account shall be changed such that they shall be similar to the signature rights as determined by the Offered Company. |
|
5.6. |
In the event the Company undertakes, at Microdel’s request, contractual obligations for payments connected with the Offering (and shall do so only provided the undertaking monies are deposited beforehand by Microdel in the Special Account), and should these undertakings exceed the sums that were planned between the parties and which served as a basis
for calculating the number of Unconditional Shares (or if the monies in the Special Account shall be insufficient to pay these undertakings), then Microdel undertakes to pay the Company any amount the Company will be required to pay as stated, immediately upon the Company’s request, unless the Offering is successful, and up to a sum that shall not exceed USD 80,000 to be paid, out of monies received as a result of the Offering, to various service providers the payment of which is contingent upon the Success
of the Offering and which shall be paid by the Company out of the Offering monies and not from the monies in the Special Account; in the event of the Success of the Offering (hereinafter, “Participation Sum Contingent Upon the Success of the Offering”). For this purpose, the “Success of the Offering” shall have the meaning ascribed in section 3.2.3 above. It is clarified that the Participation Sum Contingent
Upon the Success of the Offering shall be paid by the Company only if the Offering is successful, and not under any other circumstances. |

|
6. |
Allocation of Company Shares and Changing the Articles of Incorporation |
|
6.1. |
As a precondition for the Offering process, the minimum number of shareholders in the Company prior to the Offering must be 40 shareholders, and the Company’s shares must be uniform and with equal rights. As part of the Offering process, in order to “vet” the Company ahead of the Offering and so as to enable the Company to
pay some of the payments pursuant to the Offering that must be paid from the Company account, Microdel “enlisted” and is expected to enlist, several private investors, each one providing several thousand dollars, who have agreed to invest sums of money in the Company (hereinafter, “the Private Investors”) for a total sum of about USD 150,000 (hereinafter, “the Investment Sum of
the Private Investors”). For this purpose the Parties have agreed as follows: |
|
6.1.1. |
Immediately upon the signing of this agreement the Company shall adopt a special resolution to change its Articles of Incorporation and to turn all of the Company’s shares into ordinary shares with equal rights (hereinafter, “the Resolution to Equalize the Share Rights”) and the
Special Resolution shall include a provision to change Article 32(a) of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation dealing with the shareholders’ right to refuse to purchase the shares of another member, such that this right shall obligate every shareholder to first offer his shares to those holding at least 5% of the Company’s allocated capital such that the “offerees” according to this provision shall only be those holding at least 5% of the Company’s allocated capital. Microdel
knows that the said resolution is a special decision whose adoption requires a qualified majority at a general meeting of the Company’s shareholders. Immediately upon signing this contract the Company’s board of directors shall convene a general meeting of shareholders, whose agenda shall include the adoption of the said Special Resolution. |
9
|
6.1.2. |
Immediately following the adoption of the said Resolution to Equalize the Share Rights, if adopted, Microdel shall instruct the Company, in writing, to allocate to each one of the Private Investors a quantity of Company shares in exchange for the investment sum that shall be indicated in Microdel’s written instruction, provided that the sum of all
the shares allocated to the Private Investors against the investment of USD 150,000 shall not exceed the number of shares deducted from Microdel in order to calculate the number of Unconditional Shares. It is hereby clarified and agreed that shares allocated to the Private Investors against the Investment Sum of the Private Investors shall be deducted in advance from the number of Unconditional Shares such that the number of Unconditional Shares shall be calculated according to the shares that were
expected to be allocated to the Private Investors. It is agreed that since the monies from the Private Investors were designated, among other things, to help finance the various Offering costs, then: (1) All of the investment monies from the Private Investors shall be placed into the Special Account; (2) An investment agreement shall be signed with every Private Investor, the uniform wording of which shall be acceptable to the Company; (3) At least 66% of the number
of Private Investors, as part of the investment agreement with them, shall sign an irrevocable power of attorney authorizing the other shareholders as their proxy to vote at the Company shareholders’ meeting (such that all of the Private Investors together shall be represented by no more than 10 representatives, including the investors themselves); and instructions to the Company to invite to the shareholders meetings the proxy, and that the proxy’s address shall be considered as the investor’s
address. The power of attorney shall be valid until the Offering, and even afterwards in the event of the Failure of the Offering, so long as the Private Investors and/or their transferees are shareholders in the Company. If the Offering is successful the private investors shall be entitled to rescind the power of attorney. |
10
|
6.1.3. |
Before adopting the Resolution to Equalize the Share Rights, an agreement shall be signed between all of the Current Shareholders in the Company, including Microdel, arranging the manner in which future dividend payments shall be divided among the Current Shareholders and which will coordinate, insofar as this is possible, their rights in Company class
A and class B shares. The agreement shall include, inter alia, instructions according to which the entire Company and/or its shareholders shall not be permitted to force upon a Current Shareholder (as defined in section 3.2.3 above) an order, according to which he would be subject to a contractual lock-up period on his shares beyond the lock-up period required by American law and by virtue of provisions of the Israeli income tax ordinance; and
that all of the shares of every Current Shareholder in the Offered Company shall enjoy the same “registration rights” as those enjoyed by the shares allocated to the institutional investors and the shareholders to whom Company shares were allocated as part of the Offering. |
|
6.1.4. |
Furthermore, the agreement between the shareholders noted above shall include an order according to which the Current Shareholders, with the exception of Microdel, shall be obligated towards GPI Project Development, Ltd. (hereinafter, “the Incubator”) as follows: |
|
|
(1) |
Insofar as a restriction applies on registering the Incubator’s shares for trading and/or their sale (similar to the lock-up period under American law) following the Offering (should this occur), then the Incubator’s shares shall be registered for trade at the first opportunity in which the Company shares of the other shareholders are registered following the termination of the said restriction. |
|
|
(2) |
Notwithstanding the provisions of section (1) above, the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel) shall undertake towards the Incubator that so long as there is a restriction on the number of shares that can be registered for trade as part of the Offering so that not all of the Current Shareholders can be registered for trade, then the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel) shall waive their right to register
their relative portion of their shares for trading and will allow the Incubator to register all of its shares for trading before they register their own shares for trading. The waiver by the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel) among themselves shall be relative to the percentage of the holdings of the Current Shareholders (except for Microdel and the Incubator). |
11
|
|
(3) |
Should a restriction apply in accordance with Israeli tax laws regarding the sale of the shares of the Current Shareholders (that is, a lock-up period that prevents them from selling their shares) and it isn’t possible to be released from this restriction in exchange for payment of the tax the Incubator shall be obligated to pay; or in the event the Israeli tax authority demands that each of the Current Shareholders
shall be subject to restrictions it may impose as part of the “early approval” process, without exception and without enabling the Incubator to be “released” from this demand (even at the “cost” of its paying the tax, a demand to which the Incubator agrees); then, despite the fact that the Incubator is part of the aforementioned arrangement with the income tax authority, the provisions of sub-paragraph (1) and (2) above shall also apply in the event a restriction is imposed
under Israeli tax laws. |
|
|
(4) |
The agreement outlined in this section above shall also apply in the event the Offering is carried out in a different format, using the services of the aforementioned Offering consultant as stated in section 10 below; however it shall not apply in the case of an offering or capital-raising that is not carried out through the said offering consultant and/or someone on his behalf, nor shall it apply to any other offering
that might take place should the Offering referred to in this agreement not come to fruition and the Company shall decide to undertake a different offering procedure. |
|
|
(5) |
To remove all doubt, the rights of the Incubator according to this section shall apply even in a case in which, prior to the Offering, the Incubator transfers, subject to the provisions of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, its shares in the Company to a third party and in the said case the third party transferee shall be entitled to rights under this section following the Offering (should it occur). However,
the said rights shall become void in the case where the shares are sold to a third party after the Offering. |
|
6.1.5. |
The Company is aware of the shareholders’ agreement and undertakes to act to implement its provisions with regard to the relations between the Current Shareholders regarding the registration rights of the Company shares for trade and sale, as described above and in the agreement between the shareholders. |
12
|
6.2. |
It is hereby clarified that as part of the tax arrangement regarding the transfer of the shares of the Company shareholders to the Offered Company prior to the Offering process, there may be provisions that restrict the shareholders, including a two-year restriction on the sale of shares in the Offered Company, and a provision regarding the ownership of
shares of shareholders in the Offered Company by the Trustee they appoint and who shall be responsible for the payment of tax in the event the shares are sold. The Company shall act such that as part of the shareholders agreement described in section 6.1.3 above, the Current Shareholders shall agree to the provisions of the tax arrangement and these shall not be used as grounds for their disapproval of the Offering, and all subject to the provisions of section 6.1.4(3) regarding the Incubator. This
agreement is contingent upon the signing of the agreement between the shareholders as described above in section 6.1.3 and subject to the provisions of section 13.7 below |
|
7. |
Hiring Personnel and Service Providers During the Interim Period (until the Offering) |
|
|
Subject to an undertaking by Microdel as described in section 8 below, and subject to the signing of an employment agreement that meets with the Company’s satisfaction, the Company agrees to act in order to fill the following positions and under the following conditions: |
|
7.1. |
The Company shall act to locate a director-general for the Company, whose identity and terms of employment (including the wording of the contract signed with him) shall be approved by the Company’s board of directors and who will work until the execution of the Offering, the scope of which shall be a part-time position. |
|
7.2. |
The Company shall act to locate a Vice-president of Finances and a Vice-president of Technology, whose identity and terms of employment (including the wording of the contract signed with him) shall be approved by the Company’s board of directors and who will work until the execution of the Offering, the scope of which shall be part-time positions. |
|
|
The aforementioned officers, as a condition of their employment, shall sign employment agreements that are worded and with conditions, including employment terms, that shall be approved by the Company’s board of directors after consulting with the Company’s legal advisor. |
|
|
It is hereby clarified and agreed that the Company responded to Microdel’s request to engage these employees and to pay them their wages only on condition and provided that the provisions of section 8 below have been fulfilled, and in a manner such that the funding for the hiring of these employees until the Offering and/or until the Final Date (as extended, if extended) in the event the Offering fails to be
executed, shall be financed by Microdel, whether from the investment monies that the Private Investors deposited into the Special Account in amounts that exceeded the Offering expenses that were not contingent upon the success of the Offering, which the Company imposed upon itself at Microdel’s request, as stated above; or whether from monies received for this purpose by the Company from Microdel (and which do not endow Microdel with the right to receive additional shares in the Company, whether the Offering
shall be a success or a failure). |
13
|
7.3. |
The Company shall appoint service providers, at Microdel’s expense, as stated and under the conditions set forth in section 8.11 below, who will supervise the Offering process; and the contractual agreements shall include a provision that if the Offering process shall fail or cease for whatever reason whatsoever, the contractual agreements shall
be terminated immediately. The wording of the said contractual agreements with the services providers shall be authorized by Microdel and shall be approved by Microdel and by the Company. |
|
8. |
Continued Financing of the Company’s Ongoing Activities |
|
|
Microdel hereby undertakes, absolutely and unconditionally, to finance the Company’s ongoing activity for the period until the Final Date (and extensions as described above, if extended) at the fixed monthly rate of USD 10,000 per month (hereinafter, “the Fixed Monthly Amount”). Microdel shall deposit, at the signing of this contract,
post-dated checks in the amount cited above, each check dated for the first of the month for the period between April 1, 2009 and until November 30, 2009. (It is hereby clarified that should the Offering process be terminated for any reason prior to November 30, 2009, checks that have not been cashed that related to the ongoing financing pursuant to the period up until November 30, 2009 shall be returned, at Microdel’s request, to Microdel, and provided there are no financial obligations
relating to these sums). Furthermore, Microdel shall finance the cost of employing the personnel hired to work for the Company, as stated in section 7 above (hereinafter, “Amount of Funding for the Interim Period”). The Amount of the Funding for the Interim Period may be covered by using the monies deposited in the Special Account from the funds invested by the Private Investors, provided that at any given time the balance
in the Special Account shall be sufficient to cover all of the Company’s undertakings to third parties that are not contingent upon the outcome of the Offering. It is clarified that sums that are paid by Microdel for the purpose of financing the employment of personnel hired in accordance with section 7 above pursuant to the period until the completion of the Offering shall not endow Microdel with the right to receive shares in the Company and the Company shall not be obligated to return it,
and this amount shall be in addition to the minimum monthly sum of USD 10,000 as described above and in additional to ongoing financing as described below. The sum of the Amount of Funding for the Interim Period (but not including funding for personnel and service providers hired as described in section 7 above), provided it has been redeemed and paid, shall be considered as an investment by Microdel in the Company and shall entitle Microdel to Company shares in accordance with the principles of the
Primary Agreement. The Amount of USD 80,000 for Interim Funding for the period of April-November 2009 shall be taken into account as part of the Conditional Shares and shall not entitle Microdel to any additional shares. |
14
|
|
It is hereby clarified that financing for the Company’s ongoing activity during the period until the Offering date may exceed the monthly sum of USD 10,000. Funding shall be carried out by Microdel and/or other shareholders. In the event additional shareholders other than Microdel cannot be found to finance the Company’s activities, Microdel undertakes to finance the Company’s
activities to the extent necessary in order to continue its operations on the one hand, and to ensure the success of the Offering on the other hand, provided that any expense funded by Microdel shall be part of the work plan until the Offering date. This work plan shall be prepared by Microdel, the Company’s director-general and Golan Gilead. |

General |
|
13.1. |
The parties shall cooperate with each other for the purpose of executing the Offering; however, it is hereby agreed that the Company’s consent to cooperate with Microdel to execute the Offering does not constitute its consent to any demand that may be raised in the future by professionals hired and chosen by Microdel to direct the Offering and/or
its consent to any demand that may be raised by the institutional investors. Should the Company refuse to respond to a demand that may be raised in the future, even if such refusal should impede the execution of the Offering, Microdel shall not be entitled to any relief whatsoever against the Company, its officers and/or its shareholders; and these entities are aware that the risk regarding non-execution of the Offering is solely Microdel’s. Nevertheless, it is hereby agreed that the
Company shall not refuse to respond to future demands on unreasonable grounds. It is hereby clarified that even if the arbitrator shall determine that the board of directors refused Microdel’s demand on unreasonable grounds, the only relief that Microdel shall be entitled to receive, as final and exhaustive relief, shall be against the Company only, according to which the sums actually paid by Microdel to third parties (less a sum of USD 55,000 by which the Company shall indemnify Microdel pursuant
to its participation in the cost of the Offering Consultant as stated in section 13.3, to the extent the said amount is paid as indemnification in accordance with the terms of the said section), but not more than USD 80,000 for the purpose of executing the Offering, shall be calculated as the sum of its investment in the Company; and in exchange for this sum, Microdel shall be entitled to shares in the Company in accordance with the key set forth in the Primary Agreement. It is clarified that the aforementioned
shall not constitute accepted compensation but rather a limitation on the Company’s liability in the event it is decided that the response by the Company’s board of directors to Microdel’s demands regarding the Offering process were not reasonable or logical. Moreover, in addition to the said offering of shares, Microdel shall be entitled to withdraw in such a case the funds remaining in the Special Account beyond those unconditional amounts the Company undertook to pay to third parties
(monies in the Special Account earmarked to cover the Company’s undertakings to third parties shall not be returned to Microdel). The abovementioned in this section is the final relief available to Microdel subject to the provisions of section 13.3 below. In any case and in no case shall Microdel have any claims or disputes against members of the board of directors or the Company’s shareholders. |
|
13.2. |
In the event the Offering process does not result in an offering by the Final Date, for any reason whatsoever, Microdel shall pay all of the Offering expenses, without exception, beyond the sums deposited in the Special Account; and shall indemnify the Company for any claim brought against it in connection with undertakings assumed by the Company, at Microdel’s
request, to pay sums related to the Offering process (beyond the sums found in the Special Account). In such a case Microdel shall have no claims and/or demands against the Company and/or against any of its offers, except as stated above in this sub-section; and Microdel shall not have any right to invest monies in the Company in exchange for shares of Company stock. The Primary Agreement will be terminated, the Conditional Shares will be transferred by the Trustee to the Current Shareholders
(except for Microdel) as stated above in section 3.2 and Microdel shall be entitled to continue to own only the Unconditional Shares. And all of these stipulations are subject to the provisions of section 13.1 above and section 13.3 below – reliefs Microdel may receive from the Company only in the cases described in the said sections. Beyond the reliefs described in these sections, Microdel shall have no right to any relief vis-à-vis the Company; with regard to its officers and
its shareholders, Microdel shall not have the right to any relief whatsoever, in any case. |

|
13.3. |
Notwithstanding the stipulations of section 13.2 above, in this section it is agreed that, subject to the fulfillment of Microdel’s undertakings in this agreement, including payment of the Funding for the Interim Period, in the event the Offering process is terminated because the Company’s board of directors initiates a decision to halt the
process prior to the Final Date due to the Company’s desire to convert the Offering process into an alternative process to raise capital funding (hereinafter, “Initiated Termination due to Alternative Capital Raising”); or in the case where the Company deliberately obstructs the Offering process with a clear intention to thwart the Offering (hereinafter, “Deliberate Termination”),
then the provisions of section 13.1 above shall apply (that is, additional shares will be issued to Microdel pursuant to the sums it actually paid to finance the Offering less the sum of USD 55,000, up to a ceiling as specified in this sub-section, and the balance of the monies in the Special Account will be returned to Microdel regarding sums the Company did not undertake to pay to third parties); additionally, the company shall indemnify Microdel in the amount of USD 55,000 in order to pay compensation to the
Consultant.; and this compensation amount shall be paid, in the event of an Initiated Termination due to Alternative Capital Raising, only from the monies received through the said alternative capital raising. The burden of proof in the event of a Deliberate Termination shall be a greater burden of proof and shall apply to Microdel, while hereby clarifying that only the objection of the Company and/or its officers and/or any of its shareholders to the demands that have been expressly agreed to in this
contract, or new, inconsequential demands that are raised about the Offering that imply minor restrictions but which do not jeopardize at all, or jeopardize only slightly, the rights of the shareholders and/or the Company and which causes the termination of the Offering process – shall be considered a Deliberate Termination. The amount of the compensation contained in this section shall be the final and exhaustive compensation, and except for this Microdel shall have no right to claim and/or
right to relief of any kind vis-à-vis the Company and its officers. This relief is a relief that Microdel is entitled to receive from the Company only, and not from its officers. The provisions of this section replace any decision and/or undertaking and/or document, if any, relating to an undertaking for compensation to Microdel in the event the Offering process is terminated. |
|
13.4. |
Microdel states that the institutional bodies that are slated to invest funds in the Offered Company have not raised any demands regarding the lock-up period that will apply to the shares of all the Current Shareholders in the Company, such that the lock-up period shall not extend beyond the period required by American law and the provisions of the Israeli
Income Tax Ordinance, without any additional period of time. Microdel further states that it has been made clear by the Consultant that the registration rights for the shares of the Current Shareholders in the Offered Company shall be identical to the registration rights of the institutional shareholders. |

13.5. |
In the event of a dispute regarding the interpretation, implementation or fulfillment of this agreement and any other matter related thereto, the parties are authorized to appoint an acceptable arbitrator to serve as sole judge. In the event the parties cannot agree between themselves regarding the identity of the arbitrator within 14 days after
either party requests to appoint an arbitrator, then the arbitrator shall be appointed by the chairperson of the Tel Aviv district of the Israel Bar Association after being contacted by either of the parties. The arbitrator shall not be bound by the laws of evidence or the rules of procedure, and shall not be required to justify his ruling. It is hereby clarified that the only relief to which Microdel is entitled vis-à-vis the Company shall be the reliefs cited in sections 13.1 and/or
13.2 above, and that aside from realizing these reliefs Microdel shall not be entitled to any relief. |
|
13.6. |
Microdel shall be entitled to decide at any time to terminate the Offering process, without the Company and/or any of its shareholders having any grounds for suit against Microdel or anyone it its behalf; provided that Microdel assumes all of the expenses, without exception, that were caused and may be caused to the company as a result of the Offering
process. |
|
13.7. |
Section 6 of the Primary Agreement shall be voided, and upon signing this agreement, Microdel shall not have the right to invest any monies in the Company according to the Primary Agreement. |
|
13.8. |
Microdel knows that his agreement is contingent upon the signing of an agreement between the shareholders who agree, unanimously, to execute the Offering in the manner described in this agreement, and to the restrictions and impediments contained therein (hereinafter, “the Suspending Condition”). Non-fulfillment
of the Suspending Condition shall not constitute a breach of this contract by the Company and shall not entitle Microdel to any relief whatsoever; however, if the Suspending Condition is not fulfilled by June 30, 2009, this Agreement shall be considered null and void and the parties shall have not claims or demands one against the other in connection with the Offering process. |
