Corporate Update and Operation Highlights
"We continue to work closely with Pfizer, the Gaucher
community and payors to increase ELELYSO market share across all territories. While this growth has been slower than anticipated,
the number of patients on drug continues to increase steadily year over year," said Moshe Manor, Protalix's President
and Chief Executive Officer. "On the clinical development front, we are very excited about the potential of PRX-102 to treat
Fabry disease. This sentiment was echoed by the physician community at the WORLD annual meeting last month, where the positive
interim results from the first dosing cohort were presented. In 2015, we look forward to announcing additional interim and full
results from the PRX-102 phase I/II clinical trial and commencing proof of concept studies for oral antiTNF and AIR DNase."

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2012, by Israel's Ministry of Health in September
2012, by the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) in March 2013, by the Mexican Federal
Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risk (COFEPRIS) in April 2013, by the Australian Therapeutic Goods
Administration (TGA) in May 2014 and by the regulatory authorities of other countries. Marketing applications
for taliglucerase alfa have been filed in additional territories as well. Protalix has partnered with Pfizer Inc.
for the worldwide development and commercialization of taliglucerase alfa, excluding Israel and Brazil, where
Protalix retains full rights. Protalix's development pipeline includes the following product candidates: PRX-102,
a modified version of the recombinant human alpha-GAL-A protein for the treatment of Fabry disease; PRX-112, an
orally-delivered glucocerebrosidase enzyme that is produced and encapsulated within carrot cells, also for the treatment of
Gaucher disease; PRX-106, an orally-delivered anti-inflammatory treatment;

trials; slower than expected rates of patient recruitment; inability to monitor patients adequately during or after treatment;
inability or unwillingness of medical investigators and institutional review boards to follow our clinical protocols; and lack
of sufficient funding to finance clinical trials; the risk that the results of the clinical trials of our product candidates will
not support our claims of safety or efficacy, that our product candidates will not have the desired effects or will be associated
with undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics; our dependence on performance by third party providers of services
and supplies, including without limitation, clinical trial services; delays in our preparation and filing of applications for regulatory
approval; delays in the approval or potential rejection of any applications we file with the FDA or other health regulatory
authorities, and other risks relating to the review process; the inherent risks and uncertainties in developing drug platforms
and products of the type we are developing; the impact of development of competing therapies and/or technologies by other companies
and institutions; potential product liability risks, and risks of securing adequate levels of product liability and other necessary
insurance coverage; and other factors described in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The
