Executive has not entered into, and agrees that he/she will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict herewith.

Executive hereby consents that if Executive leaves the employ of BioLine, BioLine may notify any new employer of Executive’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.




16.
Executive acknowledges that any violation or threatened violation of this Agreement may cause irreparable injury to BioLine, entitling BioLine to seek injunctive relief in addition to all other legal remedies.




17.

(a)   the employee’s consent to an arrangement pursuant to this approval, in an agreement  specifying the Employer’s Payments, the Pension Fund and the Insurance Fund, as the case may be; said agreement shall also incorporate the text of this approval;

 Exhibit E
  BioLineRx Ltd.
  STATEMENT OF COMPANY POLICY
  SECURITIES TRADES BY BIOLINERX LTD. PERSONNEL
  BioLineRx Ltd. (the “Company”) has adopted the following Policy regarding trading by Company personnel in the Company’s securities.  The Policy applies to all Company personnel, including directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries.
  The Need for a Policy
  This Policy has been developed:
  ·
to educate all Company personnel;
  ·
to set forth guidelines for courses of action;
  ·
to protect the Company and all of its personnel against legal liability; and
  ·
to preserve the reputation of the Company and its personnel for integrity and ethical conduct.
  Since the Company is a public company with its ordinary shares traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and its American Depositary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, transactions in the Company’s securities are subject to both Israeli and United States federal securities laws and regulations.  These laws and regulations make it illegal for an individual to buy or sell securities of the Company while aware of “inside information.”  The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Israel Securities Authority (ISA) take insider trading very seriously and devote significant resources to uncovering the activity and to prosecuting offenders.  Liability may extend not only to the individuals who trade on “inside information,” but also to their “tippers,” people who leak the inside information to the individuals who trade.  The Company and “controlling persons” of the Company may also be liable for violations by Company employees.
  In addition to responding to the statutes and regulations, we are adopting this Policy to avoid even the appearance of improper conduct on the part of anyone employed by or associated with the Company (not just “insiders”).
  The Consequences
  The consequences of insider trading violations can be severe. The following are examples under U.S. law applicable to the Company:
  For individuals who trade on inside information (or tip information to others):
  ·
a civil penalty of up to three times the profit gained or loss avoided;
  ·
a criminal fine (no matter how small the profit) of up to $5 million; and
  ·
a jail term of up to twenty years.
  21
   For a company (as well as possibly any supervisory person) that fails to take appropriate steps to prevent illegal trading:
  ·
a civil penalty of the greater of $1 million or three times the profit gained or loss avoided as a result of the employee’s violation; and
  ·
a criminal penalty of up to $25 million.
  Any of the above consequences – or even an SEC or ISA investigation that does not result in prosecution – can tarnish one’s reputation and irreparably damage a career. In addition, if an employee violates this Policy, Company-imposed sanctions, including dismissal for cause, could result from failing to comply with the Company’s policy or procedures.
  Our Policy
  It is the Company’s policy that no Company personnel nor any related persons may buy or sell securities of the Company while aware of material nonpublic information or engage in any other action to take advantage of, or pass on to others, that information.
  This Policy also applies with equal force to information relating to any other company, including our collaborators, partners, suppliers, customers and others, obtained by Company personnel during the course of his or her service to or employment by the Company.
  Transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) are no exception.  Even the appearance of an improper transaction must be avoided to preserve our reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct.
  Policy Administrator.  This Policy shall be administered by the “Policy Administrator,” who shall initially be the Chief Financial and Operating Officer.  The Policy Administrator may, however, change from time to time, and you are encouraged to consult the copy of this Policy that is included on the Company’s website to obtain current information concerning the Policy Administrator.
  Material Non-Public Information.  Material non-public information (i.e., “inside information”) is any information that:
  ·
is not generally known to the public, and
  ·
which, if publicly known, would likely affect either the market price of the Company’s securities or a person’s decision to buy, sell or hold the Company’s securities.
  Information “generally known to the public” is information released to the press or the industry and after public investors and the market have had a reasonable period of time to evaluate and react to the information. All other information is regarded as non-public.
  Examples of Material Information.  Common examples of information that will frequently be regarded as material are:
  ·
quarterly or annual earnings results;
  ·
projections of future results or sales;
  ·
earnings or losses;
  ·
news of a pending or proposed merger, acquisition or tender offer;
  ·
an important financing transaction;
  22
  ·
significant clinical or regulatory developments;
  ·
the entry into or termination of a significant collaboration, joint venture or strategic alliance;
  ·
changes in management;
  ·
significant new products or discoveries;
  ·
plans regarding strategy or significant capital investments;
  ·
impending bankruptcy or financial liquidity problems;
  ·
criminal charge or government investigations;
  ·
internal financial information which departs from what the market would expect; and
  ·
the gain or loss of any significant contract or agreement.
  Either positive or negative information may be material.  We emphasize that this list is merely illustrative.
  Twenty-Twenty Hindsight.  Remember, if your securities transactions become the subject of scrutiny, they will be viewed after-the-fact with the benefit of hindsight.  As a result, before engaging in any transaction, you should carefully consider how regulators and others might view your transaction in hindsight.
  Transactions by Family Members and Others in Your Household.  These restrictions also apply to your “immediate family members” – that is, a spouse, parent, child or sibling and any other family member who shares the same address as, or is financially dependent on you.  Employees are expected to be responsible for the compliance of all family members with this Policy.  Employees are also expected to be responsible for the compliance of other persons who live in their household, whether or not related, with this Policy.
  Tipping Information to Others.  Whether the information is proprietary information about the Company or information that could have an impact on our stock price, Company personnel must not pass the information on to others.  The above penalties apply, whether or not you derive any monetary benefit from another person’s actions.  Inside information is often inadvertently disclosed or overheard in casual, social conversations.  Care must be taken to avoid such disclosures.
  When Information is Public.  As you can appreciate, it is also improper for Company personnel to trade the Company’s securities immediately after the Company has made a public announcement of material information.  Since the Company’s shareholders and the investing public should be afforded time to receive information and to act upon it, as a general rule you should not engage in any transactions until the beginning of the second business day after the information has been released.  Thus, if an announcement is made on a Monday, Wednesday generally would be the first day on which you should trade.  If an announcement is made on a Friday, Tuesdaygenerally would be the first day on which you should trade.  However, if the information released is complex, such as a prospective major financing or other transaction, it may be necessary to allow additional time for the information to be absorbed by investors.  In such circumstances, you will be notified by the Policy Administrator regarding a suitable waiting period before trading.
  Prevention of Insider Trading by Others.  If you become aware of a potential insider trading violation, you must immediately advise the Policy Administrator.  You should also take steps, where appropriate, to prevent persons under your supervision or control from using inside information for trading purposes.
  23
 
 Confidentiality.  Serious problems could be caused for the Company by the unauthorized disclosure of internal information about the Company, whether or not for the purpose of facilitating improper trading in the securities of the Company.  Company employees should not discuss internal company matters or developments with anyone outside of the Company, except as required in the performance of regular corporate duties.
  This prohibition applies specifically (but not exclusively) to inquiries about the Company that may be made by the financial press, investment analysts or others in the financial community.  It is important that all such communications on behalf of the Company be through an appropriately designated officer under carefully controlled circumstances.  Unless you are expressly authorized to the contrary, if you receive any inquiries of this nature, you should decline comment and refer the inquirer to the Chief Financial and Operating Officer.
  Nothing in this Policy is meant to limit or change the obligations of confidentiality and non-use of non-public information that directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company by virtue of their positions or their agreements with the Company. Such obligations also apply in the context of any electronic chat room or electronic bulletin board, including participation under a pseudonym.
  Additional Prohibited Transactions
  Since we believe it is generally improper and inappropriate for Company personnel to engage in short-term or speculative transactions involving the Company’s securities, it is our policy that such personnel should not engage in any of the following activities with respect to the Company’s securities:
  ·
Trading in the Company’s securities on a short-term basis.  Any ordinary shares of the Company purchased in the open market should be held for a minimum of 60 days.
  ·
Short sales of the Company’s securities.
  ·
Use of the Company’s securities to secure a margin or other loan, except in limited cases with the prior approval of the Policy Administrator.
  ·
Transactions in straddles, collars, or other similar risk reduction devices, except in limited cases with the prior approval of the Policy Administrator.
  ·
Transactions in publicly-traded options relating to the Company’s securities (i.e., options that are not granted by the Company), except in limited cases with the prior approval of the Policy Administrator.
  Trading Blackouts Applicable to all Company Personnel
  While it is never permissible to trade based on material non-public information, we are implementing procedures to help prevent inadvertent violations and avoid even the appearance of an improper transaction (which could result, for example, where Company personnel engage in a trade while unaware of a pending major development).
  24
  Prohibited Periods for Trading. No person to whom this Policy is applicable may trade in the Company’s securities during the following periods:
  ·
the periods starting on the 15th day after the close of each fiscal quarter and ending at the beginning of the second business day after the release of the Company’s financial results for each quarter and, in the case of the fourth quarter, financial results for the year end; and
  ·
any other periods as determined by the Company. You will be notified by e-mail when you may not trade in the Company’s securities during such periods, and you will also be notified when trading restrictions are lifted.
  There are no restrictions on exercising options without a sale. Selling the shares held as a result of exercising options is subject to the restrictions set forth above.
  Pre-Clearance of Trades
  In order to ensure and maintain compliance with this Policy, all transactions in the Company’s securities (acquisitions, dispositions, transfers, etc.), including the execution of Trading Plans (as defined below), by directors, members of Executive Management, financial team members and designated employees must be pre-cleared in advance by the Policy Administrator.  If you are a member of one of the groups listed above and you contemplate a transaction in the Company’s securities, you must contact the Policy Administrator or other designated individual prior to executing the transaction.  The Policy Administrator will use his reasonable best efforts to provide approval or disapproval as soon as practicable.  You must wait until receiving pre-clearance to execute the transaction.  Neither the Company nor the Policy Administrator shall be liable for any delays that may occur due to the pre-clearance process.  If the transaction is pre-cleared by the Policy Administrator, it must be executed by the end of the second business day after receipt of pre-clearance.  Notwithstanding receipt of pre-clearance of a transaction, if you become aware of material nonpublic information after receiving the pre-clearance but prior to the execution of the transaction, you may not execute the transaction.
  Please note that such pre-clearance does not provide the insider with immunity from investigation or suit; it is the responsibility of the individual to comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations.
  Exception for Trading Plans
  Notwithstanding the restrictions and prohibitions on trading in the Company securities as set forth in this Policy, persons subject to this Policy are permitted to effect transactions in Company securities pursuant to approved trading plans established under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Trading Plans”), including transactions during the prohibited periods discussed above.  Rule 10b5-1 requires that these transactions be made pursuant to a plan that was established while the person was not in possession of material non-public information.  In order to comply with this Policy, the Company must pre-approve any such Trading Plan prior to its effectiveness.  Company personnel seeking to establish a Trading Plan should contact the Policy Administrator.
  Application of this Policy to Persons Who Cease to be Associated with the Company
  The laws against insider trading continue to apply to anyone who has material non-public information about the Company.  Therefore, even if an individual ceases to be employed by or associated with the Company, that person is prohibited by law from trading any securities of the Company for so long as he or she possesses material non-public information.
  25
 
 Company Assistance
  Any person who has any questions about specific transactions or this Policy in general may obtain additional guidance from the Policy Administrator.  Remember, however, the ultimate responsibility for adhering to the Policy and avoiding improper transactions rests with you.  In this regard, it is imperative that you use your best judgment.

  2.1
CEO’s message
  The status of BioLineRx as a public company confers on it both advantages and responsibility. The main market for trading the Company’s shares is the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. Therefore, we are subject to the Israeli Securities Law and the enforcement thereof by the Israel Securities Authority (“ISA”). When the ISA learns of breaches of the law, it has the power to sue companies and individuals in criminal proceedings and (after amendments to the law from 2011) to impose fines and other sanctions without the need to apply to the courts.
  The administrative enforcement plan is intended to help us comply with the law, to correctly address violations and to demonstrate to the ISA that we treat seriously anything that is related to the offering of our shares. Understanding the plan and enforcing it in day-to-day life provides a solid basis for the investors’ trust in particular and for the Company’s public reputation in general.
  Similarly to our code of business and ethics, this plan is intended for each and every Company employee, manager and Board member.
  I request and expect your personal commitment to the enforcement of the procedure and full cooperation in its application.
  This procedure is a living procedure which may change from time to time pursuant to relevant laws and regulations and according to the lessons learned during the assimilation of the plan.
  I trust each and every one of you to comply with both the written plan and its spirit.
  Dr. Kinneret Savitsky
 CEO

General information on an administrative enforcement plan
  3.1
Improvement of Internal Enforcement Proceedings in the ISA Law, 5770-2010
  The Law for the Improvement of Internal Enforcement Proceedings in the Israel Securities Authority, 5770-2010 (the “Law”), which was approved by the Knesset in January 2011, constitutes a significant change that requires reporting companies to immediately address the requirements of the new Law. The main parts of the Law regulate the establishment of an administrative committee that will deal with violations in the area of securities. If the committee reaches the conclusion that it was proven at the level of proof which is customary in civil law (a probability of more than 50%) that a violation was committed, it will be authorized to institute various means of enforcement against the violating party.
  The committee will deal with various violations that are related to the Securities Law, 5728-1968 (the “Securities Law”) and other relevant laws. The common feature of such violations is that the mens rea that is set forth therein is at most that of negligence.
  The means of enforcement that the committee will be authorized to impose will be significant fines, a demand to pay damages to the party injured by the violation, a payment to the State treasury which derives from profits that were generated as a result of the violation, a demand to institute acts to remedy the violation and prevent its recurrence, a prohibition on holding office in certain bodies, a suspension or revocation of a license and suspended punishment.
  As is known, the Law establishes, inter alia, the strict responsibility of the CEO, due to which enforcement measures can be imposed as set forth in the Law.
  (a)
“The CEO of the corporation and a partner other than a limited partner, are obligated to supervise and institute any and all reasonable means under the circumstances of the case to prevent the commission of a violation by the corporation or partnership, as the case may be, or by any of their employees.”(b)
If a violation is committed the presumption is that the CEO of the corporation or a partner other than a limited partner in the partnership, as the case may be, has breached his obligation pursuant to Subsection (a) and may be subject to one or more of the means of enforcement as specified below...unless he proves that he has fulfilled his obligation pursuant to Subsection (a):(c)
If the corporation has established adequate procedures to prevent a violationas provided in Subsection (b), appointed an officer on its behalf to supervise the compliance therewith, including with regard to providing guidance to the corporation’s employees for the compliance therewith, and instituted reasonable steps to remedy the violation and prevent the recurrence thereof, the presumption is that the CEO or the partner, as the case may be, has fulfilled his obligation as provided in Subsection (a).
  According to commentators, all the provisions of Subsection (c) lead to an internal enforcement plan. So, too, thought the Israel Securities Authority (the “ISA”), when in August 2011 it released a Document on criteria for recognition of an internal enforcement plan in the area of securities and investment management (the “ISA Document”) and set forth that:
  “The applicationin practice of an efficient enforcement plan by the corporation may be viewed favorably by the ISA with respect to the corporation or individuals therein in the context of its discretion in respect of the exercise of its powers of enforcement pursuant to the law.”
  The ISA’s Document sets forth the standards that will be examined by the ISA when deliberating and deciding whether an efficient enforcement plan exists at a corporation. Based on the requirements of the Law, the ISA’s Document and the understanding of the Company’s management, the relevant information and instructions have been incorporated into the enforcement plan document that is set forth below.
  3.2
What is an enforcement plan
  This internal enforcement plan document is a document that is unique to the Company which set forth the activities to be undertaken in order to prevent the violations listed in the schedule to the administrative enforcement law.
  30
 
 3.3
Objectives of an enforcement plan
  The creation, implementation and assimilation of a correct and suitable enforcement plan can constitute a dual safety mechanism for the Company and the individuals therein:
  ü
Minimization of the possibility of the occurrence of a violation
  Through the establishment of clear procedures, presentation of standards for conduct and implementation of controls for the application thereof in the day-to-day activity, ensuring that any and all individuals taking part in the Company’s relevant activity are aware of their obligation and the manner of their compliance therewith.
  ü
Immediate effect on the examining entity in the event that a violation occurs
  As stated in the Law and in the ISA’s Document, an enforcement plan is an indication that the Company (its managers and directors) has done everything within its power to try to prevent violations. Such a plan will provide a defense to their benefit whereby they have instituted any and all reasonable measures to prevent the offence for a body which is examining and/or dealing with an occurrence of a violation.
  The primary objective of the enforcement plan is to ensure the proper activity of the Company in accordance with any and all regulatory obligations and desired standard of conduct insofar as the same are relevant to the Securities Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
  The plan intends to establish existing proper conduct, to create a compilation of information and procedures that are relevant to the organization and to assimilate the conduct which is desired and required of each and every one of the Company’s employees and officers and to promote an organizational culture of compliance with and respect for the Law.
  All employees and/or officers should be able to consult the document if and when they encounter an issue pertaining to the content of the plan and to find answers with regard to the conduct that is appropriate and expected of them, whether it is a procedure which offers guidance on how to act or a referral to consultation with a relevant body.
  3.4
Applicability of the enforcement plan
  This plan applies to BioLineRx (the “Company”) by virtue of its being a public company whose shares are listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. The plan applies to all of the Company’s echelons, i.e. the Company’s employees, senior officers, managers and directors. It is important to emphasize that the plan also applies to the employees of any and all subsidiaries of the Company in view of their involvement with the operations of the parent company.
  3.5
Prohibition on insurance and indemnification
  The Law explicitly contains a prohibition on insurance and/or indemnification in respect of violations of the Law.
  The Law establishes that a proceeding to impose a pecuniary sanction, an administrative proceeding or an arrangement proceeding cannot be insured. A pecuniary sanction imposed on a corporation, its controlling shareholder or an employee in a proceeding as aforesaid cannot be indemnified or paid, either directly or indirectly.
  However, an employee can be indemnified or insured for payment to the party injured by the violation and additionally for expenses that he shall have incurred in relation to a proceeding that was conducted in the matter of the employee, irrespective of the results of the proceeding.
  In November 2011, the Company’s articles of association and letters of insurance and indemnification of the officers were updated accordingly, such that a provision was set forth that permits the insurance and/or indemnification pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Law.
  3.6
Documentation and provision of documents for inspection and storing of documents
  The Law and the schedules include a reference to the issue of providing documents for inspection. As part of the enforcement plan and its procedures, the Company is obligated to make available for inspection any and all relevant documents (for example, a prospectus that was authorized for publication, a registration document or any and all reports, opinions, approvals, reports or notices that were filed) at its head office.
  Relevant procedures shall specify the responsibility for the fulfillment of the right of inspection insofar as will be required.

  4.1.5
Internal auditor’s responsibility
  The Internal Audit Law, 5752-1992, provides that the internal auditor of the Company is, inter alia, the body responsible for the examination of issues such as:  the propriety of the actions of the Company and the officers, the fulfillment of the provisions that are binding on the Company and the carrying out of decision-making processes according to proper procedures and, consequently, contributes to the Company’s compliance and enforcement mechanisms.

  Examining the relevance and effectiveness of the enforcement plan, the effectiveness of the Officer’s actions, examining the compliance with the enforcement plan and its procedures once every four years, handling irregular cases that were identified, completing the acts required in the enforcement plan within the required timelines.
  34
   5.
Guiding principles/issues addressed
  BioLine is a dual-listed company that is listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and on NASDAQ in the U.S.
  The Company’s reporting obligations derive mainly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and the reports deriving from its compliance with SEC’s requirements are also published in the ISA’s reporting system.
  Pursuant to an examination of the violations in the Fifth and Seventh Schedules to the Law, and an examination of the relevance to the Company by the General Counsel and the Officer, the following issues were found to be relevant to the enforcement plan.
  5.1
Prospectus/annual report process
  Corporations publish a prospectus as part of the process of offering securities or bonds. In addition, under U.S. law, the Company is required to file an annual report with the SEC. The process of preparation of the annual report is similar to the one related to the preparation of a prospectus. The purpose of the prospectus and the annual report is to provide to the general public and to the reasonable investor in particular information that is essential to the decision to purchase the Company’s securities.
  In view of the Company’s dual listing, it is obligated to institute a process with regard to a prospectus or annual report (and which is relevant to the process at the main stock exchange) upon the completion of which, the Company shall be able to publish a full, reliable and up-to-date prospectus or report that is approved by any and all relevant bodies and meets all of the regulatory requirements.
  The process shall be regulated in the context of a procedure or a checklist, specifying the acts that are required and which shall be updated from time to time and as necessary.
  5.2
Reports to the SEC and ISA
  The purpose of the reports to the ISA is to update the investors and supervisory bodies on the Company’s condition and on developments or changes in its activity that may be relevant to the investing public. The Company’s reports are based on the reports to the SEC and which are required thereby.
  All of the reports must include full, reliable and current information and to fulfill any and all relevant regulatory requirements.
  A reporting obligation exists in various cases which affects the content and manner of reporting. This plan deals with three issues that arise from the obligations that apply as a result of the Fifth and Seventh Schedules
  5.2.1           Periodic reports –In addition to an extensive annual report, a public company is required to release financial statements on a quarterly basis. In the Company’s case, the structure and content of the reports are audited and supervised according to international accounting standards and the rules of the SEC.
  Establishing an internal procedure regarding periodic reporting will assist the Company in minimizing the risks related to the deadline for and appropriateness of the periodic reporting, and the fulfillment and enforcement thereof will assist in the prevention of failures on the part of employees and officers with regard to the subject, directly or indirectly.
  5.2.2           Immediate reports – BioLine, as a dual public company, is required to immediately report (according to SEC’s reporting rules) material events which may have an effect on the price of the Company’s securities. The identification of the need to report, the decision on the need to report, the weighing of conflicting interests, the timing and content of the report, requires the Company to have an orderly process, which includes the identification of information which may have to be reported, the consultation with regard to the need to report, and the actual reporting, all within the timeframes prescribed in by applicable regulations.
  The purpose of establishing a process and determining rules of activity and conduct is to provide current, accurate and full reporting to the SEC, the ISA and the public, on issues that are regulated in the securities laws and the regulations thereunder.
  Establishing an internal procedure regarding immediate reports will assist the Company in minimizing the risks related to the deadline for and appropriateness of the periodic reporting, and the fulfillment and enforcement thereof will assist in the prevention of failures on the part of employees and officers with regard to the subject, directly or indirectly.
  35
  5.3
Prohibition on the use of inside information
  Inside information is “information on developments in the company, changes in its condition, expected developments or changes, or other information about the company, which is unknown to the public and which, were it to become known to the public, would result in a material change in the price of the Company’s security or the price of another security of which the Company’s security is a basic asset.” It was determined in the legislation that the use of inside information for the purpose of a securities transaction or its transmission to another, are prohibited by law.
  Each corporation is required to adopt rules and guidelines in order to fulfill Chapter H1 of the Securities Law including all of its provisions, as well as the U.S. laws which relate to such issue, all in order to prevent the use of inside information by the Company’s employees and other bodies.
  It is necessary to put in place a process to cover the identification of the sensitive information, clarify the prohibition to use the same and assimilate it among any and all persons who come into contact with such information.
  Establishing an internal procedure regarding the use of inside information will assist the Company in minimizing the risks related to the deadline for and appropriateness of the periodic reporting, and the fulfillment and enforcement thereof will assist in the prevention of failures on the part of employees and officers with regard to the subject, directly or indirectly.
  5.4
Transactions with interested parties
  Interested party transactions are transactions entered into between one of the interested parties of the company (or between a company affiliated with that party or a person related to it) and the company. Such transactions contain a potential for a conflict of interests that is higher than in ordinary transactions. Therefore, applicable laws and regulations set forth conditions to the approval of such type of transactions, inter alia, the manner of approval thereof by various organs of the corporation (including, under circumstances set forth in the law, an approval by a general meeting of a majority of the shareholders of the company from among the those shareholders who do not have a personal interest in relation to the transaction), and the disclosure to the public of the terms and conditions of the transaction.
  In view of the regulatory requirements concerning the identification of such transactions, the manner of approval thereof and reporting thereon, a controlled process should be put in place concerning the subject, in order to reduce the related risks and assist in the prevention of failures in the matter.
  5.5
Procedure for period end closing
  In accordance with the Companies Law, 5759-1999, the Securities Law and U.S. securities laws, public companies must abide by all disclosure rules and prepare proper financial statements covering all accounting operations. Companies must therefore operate in accordance with orderly and well-defined work procedures, and generate reports conform to accepted accounting practices, according to the provisions of the law. The procedure for period end closing, which is in the advanced stage of drafting, intended to set in order the preparation of the Company’s financial statements.

External reporting
  There are situations in which a violation or a suspected violation of the securities laws requires reporting to the competent authorities (the ISA or the Israeli Police, as the case may require).
  Even in those cases in which there is no reporting obligation, voluntary disclosure should be considered, since the ISA Document states that the ISA’s enforcement considerations in exercising its powers in respect of corporations and individuals include the factors of voluntary disclosure by the corporation and the corporation’s cooperation with the ISA.
  Situations where there is a legal obligation to report to the ISA include among others situations in which an item was published which may mislead a reasonable investor or trading was done based on inside information.
  In all situations in which there is no reporting obligation, the Officer shall discuss the need to report with the Chief Financial & Operating Officer and outside legal advisors. Their conclusion and the considerations that led thereto shall be brought for deliberation by the Audit Committee which shall be convened for such purpose.
  General Counsel together with the Chief Financial & Operating Officer shall report to the competent authorities in accordance with the Company’s decision and soon after the date of the decision.

Sanctions in events of violation and failure to report

  8.1
Determination of sanctions in events of violation
  In view of the ISA determination that “the Company shall institute suitable measures against violating parties, including, in appropriate cases, disciplinary action in respect of anyone violating the provisions of the securities laws or the provisions of the enforcement plan”, the Company shall set forth in each procedure separately, insofar as necessary, the disciplinary action that is required.
