AMENDED AND RESTATED 2012 SHARE
As used herein capitalized terms shall have the meanings set
forth in Annex A hereto, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary.
The purpose and intent of the
Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by affording to selected employees, officers, directors, consultants and other services
providers of the Company or Affiliated Companies an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company or to increase their
proprietary interest therein, as applicable, by the grant in their favor, of Options, thus providing such Grantee an additional incentive
to become, and to remain, employed or engaged by the Company or Affiliated Company, as the case may be, and encouraging such Grantee's
sense of proprietorship and stimulating his or her active interest in the success of the Company and the Affiliated Company by which such
Grantee is employed or engaged.
The Plan shall become effective
as of the day it was adopted by the Board, and shall continue in effect until the earlier of (a) its termination by the
Board; or (b) the date on which all of the Options available for issuance under the Plan have been granted and exercised;
or (c) the lapse of ten (10) years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board.
The persons eligible for participation
in the Plan as Grantees include employees, officers, directors, consultants, and other service providers of the Company or any Affiliated
Company (including persons who are responsible for or contribute to the management, growth or profitability of, or who provide substantial
services to, the Company or any Affiliated Company). The Board, in its sole discretion shall select from time to time the individuals,
from among the persons eligible to participate in the Plan, who shall receive Options. In determining the persons in favor of whom Options
are to be granted, the number of Options to be granted thereto and the terms of such grants, the Board may take into account the nature
of the services rendered by such person, his/her present and future potential contribution to the Company or to the Affiliated Company
by which he/she is employed or engaged, and such other factors as the Board in its discretion shall deem relevant.
of Options to be granted pursuant to this Plan shall be Four Million Six Hundred Seventy-Two Thousand
and Ninety-Four (4,672,094) and the Company has reserved Four Million Six Hundred Seventy-Two Thousand and Ninety-Four (4,672,094)
authorized but unissued Shares for the purpose of the Plan, subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 12 below, and as shall be amended
by the Board from time to time.
The Company shall at all times
until the expiration or termination of this Plan keep reserved a sufficient number of Shares to meet the requirements of this Plan. Any
of such Shares, which, as of the expiration or termination of this Plan, remain unissued and not subject to outstanding Options, shall
at such time cease to be reserved for the purposes of this Plan. Should any Option for any reason expire or be canceled prior to
its exercise or relinquishment in full, such Option may be returned to said pool of Options and may again be granted under this Plan.
Option agreements between the
Company and a Grantee will be in such form approved by the Board, which may be a general form or a specific form with respect to a certain
Unless otherwise determined by
the Board (which determination shall not require shareholder approval, unless so required in order to comply with the provisions of applicable
Mandatory Law) and provided accordingly in the applicable Option Agreement, such Option Agreement shall set forth, by appropriate language,
the number of Options granted thereunder and the substance of all of the following provisions:
Period of Grantee's Continuous Service from the Start Date: Portion of Total Number of Options that becomes Vested and Exercisable
Upon the completion of a full twelve (12) months of continuous Service 33%
Upon the lapse of each full additional three month(s) of the Grantee's continuous Service thereafter, until all the Options are vested (i.e. 100% of the grant will be vested after 4 years) 8.375%
For the purposes hereof, the "Start
Date" shall mean the Date of Grant, unless otherwise determined by the Board (which determination shall not require shareholder
approval unless so required in order to comply with the provisions of the Companies Law), and provided accordingly in the applicable Option
For the purposes hereof, the
term "Service" means a Grantee's employment or engagement by the Company or an Affiliated Company. Service shall
be deemed terminated upon the effective date of the termination of the employment/engagement relationship. A Grantee's Service shall
not be deemed terminated or interrupted solely as a result of a change in the capacity in which the Grantee renders Service to the Company or an Affiliated
Company (i.e., as an employee, officer, director, consultant, etc.); nor shall it be deemed terminated or interrupted due solely to a
change in the identity of the specific entity (out of the Company and its Affiliated Companies) to which the Grantee renders such Service,
provided that there is no actual interruption or termination of the continuous provision by the Grantee of such Service to any of the
Company and its Affiliated Companies. Furthermore, a Grantee's Service with the Company or Affiliated Company shall not be deemed
terminated or interrupted as a result of any military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence taken by the Grantee and
approved by the Company or such Affiliated Company by which the Grantee is employed or engaged, as applicable; provided, however, that
if any such leave exceeds ninety (90) days, then on the ninety-first (91st) day of such leave the Grantee's Service shall
be deemed to have terminated unless the Grantee's right to return to Service with the Company or such Affiliated Company is secured
by statute or contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise designated by the Company or Affiliated Company, as the case may
be, or required by law, time spent in a leave of absence shall not be treated as time spent providing Service for the purposes of calculating
accrued vesting rights under the vesting schedule of the Options. Without derogating from the aforesaid, the Service of a Grantee to an
Affiliated Company shall also be deemed terminated in the event that such Affiliated Company for which the Grantee performs Service ceases
to fall within the definition of an "Affiliated Company" under this Plan, effective as of the date said Affiliated Company
ceases to be such. In all other cases in which any doubt may arise regarding the termination of a Grantee's Service or the effective
date of such termination, or the implications of absence from Service on vesting, the Corporation, in its discretion, shall determine
whether the Grantee's Service has terminated and the effective date of such termination and the implications, if any, on vesting.
The Board shall be entitled, but
not obliged, at its sole discretion, to accelerate, in whole or in part, the vesting schedule of any Option, including, without limitation,
in connection with a Merger Transaction and/or an IPO.
Vested Options may be exercised
at one time or from time to time during the Exercise Period, by giving a written notice of exercise (the "Exercise Notice")
to the Company, at their principal offices, in accordance with the following terms, or such other procedures as shall be determined from
time to time by the Board and notified in writing to the Grantees:
No Options shall be deemed exercised
nor shall any Share be issued thereunder, until the Company has been provided with confirmation by the applicable tax authorities or is
otherwise under a tax arrangement, which either: (a)waives or defers the tax withholding obligation with respect to such
exercise and issuance; or (b) confirms receipt of the payment of all the tax due with respect to such exercise; or (c)
confirms the conclusion of another arrangement with the Grantee regarding the tax amounts, if any, that are to be withheld by the Company
or any Affiliated Company under Law with respect to such exercise, and which arrangement is satisfactory to the Company. If such confirmations/exemptions/arrangements
are not available under the tax subjections of the Grantee, the Company shall be entitled to require as a condition of issuance that the
Grantee remit an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state and other governmental withholding tax requirements related thereto.
A determination of the Company's counsel that a withholding tax is required in connection with the exercise of Options shall be
conclusive for the purposes of this requirement condition.
Furthermore, notwithstanding any
other provision of this Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver Shares under the Plan unless the exercise of the
Option and the issuance and delivery of the underlying Shares comply with, and do not result in a breach of, all applicable Laws, to the
satisfaction of the Company in its sole discretion, and have received, if deemed desirable by the Company, the approval of legal counsel
for the Company with respect to such compliance. The Company may further require the
Grantee to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with applicable Laws.
As a condition to the exercise
of an Option, the Company may require, among other things, that: (a) the Grantee represent and warrant at the time of any
exercise that the underlying Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such
Shares, and make such other representations, warranties and covenants as may be reasonably required to comply with applicable laws; (b)
a legend be stamped on the certificates representing such underlying Shares indicating that they may not be pledged, sold or otherwise
transferred unless an opinion of legal counsel (acceptable by the Company's counsel) stating that such transfer is not in violation
of any applicable Law, is provided; and (c) the Grantee execute and deliver to the Company such an agreement as may be in
use by the Company setting forth certain terms and conditions applicable to the Shares.
The Grantee may transfer or sell
only Exercised Shares, or any part thereof, to any third party, provided that all of the following conditions have been met prior to such
transfer: (a) the transfer is made in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Company's Articles (including,
without limitation, any rights of first refusal provided therein, if any); and (b) the transferee confirmed in writing its
acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Plan, any applicable Sub-Plan and the applicable Option Agreement with respect to the Exercised
Shares being transferred, instead of the Grantee, to the satisfaction of the Board (including the execution of the proxy referred to in
Section 10.2 below); and (c) actual payment of all taxes required to be paid upon such sale and transfer of the Exercised
Shares has been made to the tax assessor, and the trustee (if applicable) received confirmation from the tax assessor that all taxes required
