WHERAS                                  the Company desires to employ IL as President of the Company, in addition to and irrespective of his continued service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein and IL desires to enter into such employment; and

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.                            EMPLOYMENT

 

1.1.                           IL’s employment in the position of the Company’s President shall commence on June 1, 2011, (the “Commencement Date”). . IL undertakes to perform such duties and responsibilities as may be assigned to him by the Company’s Board of Directors from time to time and shall be subordinated to the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

1.2.                           This Agreement may be terminated by either party at any time by giving the other party hereto three (3) months’ prior written notice of such termination (the “Notice Period”).

 











 

1.3.                           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 1.3 above, the Company may immediately cease IL’s employment and may shorten all or part of the Notice Period, regardless of whether notice of termination was given by the Company or by IL; provided, however, that in such event IL shall be entitled to receive such Salary, as such term is defined in Section 1 of Appendix A attached hereto, during the Notice Period as if IL were to continue to be employed by the Company for the duration of such Notice Period.

 

1.4.                           In the event of resignation by IL, in which IL did not give the Company prior written notice, the Company may deduct from any amount owed to IL, an amount equal to IL’s Salary for the time he did not work during the required Notice Period, as a pre-accepted and undisputed compensation therefor. Without derogating from the preceding sentence, the Company reserves its right to sue IL for any damages suffered by the Company as a result of IL’s failure to give the Company prior written notice in accordance with Section 1.3 above.

 

1.5.                           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company may terminate IL’s employment for Cause without advance notice and without derogating from any remedy to which the Company may be entitled. A termination for “Cause” is a termination due to (i) IL’s embezzlement of funds of the Company; or (ii) IL’s material breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; or (iii) IL being involved in an act which constitutes a breach of trust between himself and the Company or constitutes a breach of discipline; or (iv) IL’s conduct has caused grave injury to the Company, monetarily or otherwise.

IL shall return to the Company all of the Company’s Equipment in its possession no later than the day of termination of employee-employer relationship and prior to any vacation of more than 30 days (including vacation due to pregnancy or prior notice) or within 7 days after the Company’s demand.

 

2.                            SPECIAL AGREEMENT

 

It is agreed between the parties that this Agreement is a personal agreement, and that the position IL is to hold within the Company is an executive position which requires a special measure of personal trust, as such terms are defined in the Working Hours and Rest Law 5711 - 1951, as amended (the “Law”). The provisions of any collective bargaining agreement which exist or shall exist do not, and will not, apply to the employment of IL, whether such agreement was signed among the government, the General Federation of Labor and Employers organizations, or any of such parties, or whether signed by others, in relation to the field or fields of the business of the Company or in relation to the position held by or the profession of IL. Thus, IL may be required, from time to time and according to the work load demanded of him, to work beyond the regular working hours and IL shall not be entitled to any further compensation other than as specified in this Agreement and the Appendixes hereto.

For the avoidance of any doubt, in the event that IL shall accrue an aggregate total amount in the Fund exceeding the maximum total amount prescribed by the Income Tax Ordinance, such extra amount shall be deemed as revenue income and such amount shall be contributed to the Fund or to the Salary as an “Additional Contribution of Keren Hishtalmut,” at IL’s discretion.

IL shall not be entitled, with respect to all of the above, to any monetary consideration or any other consideration except as explicitly set forth in the employment agreement between IL and the Company. Without limitation of the foregoing, IL irrevocably confirms that the consideration explicitly set forth in the employment agreement is in lieu of any rights for compensation that may arise in connection with the Inventions under applicable law and waives any right to claim royalties or other consideration with respect to any Invention, including under Section 134 of the Israeli Patent Law — 1967. With respect to all of the above any, oral understanding, communication or agreement not memorialized in writing and duly signed by the Company shall be void.

 

4.                            General.

 

4.1.                           IL represents that the performance of all the terms of this Undertaking and IL’s duties as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any invention assignment, proprietary information, non-compete, confidentiality or similar agreements with, or rules, regulations or policies of, any former employer or other party (including, without limitation, any academic institution or any entity related thereto).  IL acknowledges that the Company is relying upon the truthfulness and accuracy of such representations in employing IL.

 

4.2.                           IL acknowledges that the provisions of this Undertaking serve as an integral part of the terms of IL’s employment and reflect the reasonable requirements of the Company in order to protect its legitimate interests with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

4.3.                           IL recognizes and acknowledges that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Undertaking by IL, the Company may suffer irreparable harm or damage and will, therefore, be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Undertaking (without limitation to any other remedy at law or in equity).

 

4.4.                           This Undertaking is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel, without giving effect to its laws pertaining to conflict of laws.  IL agrees that any and all disputes in connection with this Undertaking shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts located in the city of Tel-Aviv-Jaffa, Israel.

4.5.                           If any provision of this Undertaking is determined by any court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent possible given the intent of the parties hereto.  If such clause or provision cannot be so enforced, such provision shall be stricken from this Undertaking only with respect to such jurisdiction in which such clause or provision cannot be enforced, and the remainder of this Undertaking shall be enforced as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable clause or provision had (to the extent not enforceable) never been contained in this Undertaking. In addition, if any particular provision contained in this Undertaking shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, it shall be construed by limiting and reducing the scope of such provision so that the provision is enforceable to the fullest extent compatible with applicable law.

 

4.6.                           The provisions of this Undertaking shall continue and remain in full force and effect following the termination or expiration of the employment relationship between the Company and IL, for whatever reason. This Undertaking shall not serve in any manner so as to derogate from any of IL’s obligations and liabilities under any applicable law.

 

4.7.                           This Undertaking constitutes the entire agreement between IL and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof.  No amendment of or waiver of, or modification of any obligation under this Undertaking will be enforceable unless set forth in a writing signed by the Company.  No delay or failure to require performance of any provision of this Undertaking shall constitute a waiver of that provision as to that or any other instance.  No waiver granted under this Undertaking as to any one provision herein shall constitute a subsequent waiver of such provision or of any other provision herein, nor shall it constitute the waiver of any performance other than the actual performance specifically waived

 

4.8.                           This Undertaking, the rights of the Company hereunder, and the obligations of IL hereunder, will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives.  The Company may assign any of its rights under this Undertaking.  IL may not assign, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, any of its obligations under this Undertaking, except with the prior written consent of the Company.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, has executed this Undertaking as of the date first mentioned above.
