 of Deloitte, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection but is not required to change its selection. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may change the appointment at any time during the year if it determines that a change would be in the best interests of the Company.

#### Vote Required
The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present is required to approve the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm.

For purposes of the vote on this Proposal 3, abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for the

purpose of determining the presence of a quorum. However, if you do not instruct your broker how to vote on this proposal and

your broker does not vote those shares, your shares will be treated as broker non-votes. Abstentions, broker non-votes and other

shares not voted will have no effect on this Proposal 3. Stockholders may vote “FOR,” “AGAINST,” or “ABSTAIN” with

respect to this Proposal 3.

We expect this Proposal 3 will be considered a routine matter under applicable stock exchange rules. Accordingly,

without specific instructions from you, your bank, broker or other nominee will have discretionary authority to vote your shares

on this Proposal 3. However, we understand that certain brokerage firms have elected not to vote even on “routine” matters

without your voting instructions. If your bank, broker or other nominee has made this decision, and you do not provide voting

instructions, your vote will not be cast. Accordingly, we urge you to direct your bank, broker or other nominee how to vote by

returning your voting materials as instructed or by obtaining a proxy from your broker or other nominee in order to vote your

shares in person at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes will have no effect on this Proposal 3.

If on the record date your shares were held in “street name” through a TASE member, your TASE member will not

vote your shares and you must vote through the electronic voting system of the ISA. If you do not vote your shares through this

system, we will treat your shares as not present and not entitled to vote for the purpose of determining the presence of a

quorum, but will have no effect on this Proposal 3.

The Board recommends a vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as our independent registered public
