(i)             Pension Plan; Manager’s Insurance.  The Employer will pay to (unless agreed otherwise by the parties) an insurance company or a pension fund, subject to the Employee’s decision, for the Employee, an amount equal to 8.33% of the Salary, which shall be allocated to a fund for severance pay, and an additional amount equal to 6.25% of the Salary (and 6.5% as of January 1, 2017), which shall be allocated to a provident fund or pension plan.

In case the Employee chooses to allocate his pension payments to an insurance policy (and not a pension fund), and if an allocation of 1.25% (from the above 6.25% allocated by the Employer to the pension savings component) shall not be sufficient for disability insurance to insure Employee for up to 75% of the Salary, the Employer will also contribute up to 1.25% of the Salary for disability insurance, provided that such insurance cost will not exceed 2.5% of the Salary, so that Company’s provident contributions shall be no less than 5%, and together- no more than 7.5%. The Employee agrees that the percentages set forth are subject to adjustment in order to comply with applicable law as amended from time to time. The Employee may choose to get the Employer payments into a mixture of insurance company and pension fund(s) in the amounts indicated above, provided that the payment for disability insurance will cover either 75% of the salary or up to the maximum payment allowed for the pension saving component and additional 2.5% for the disability insurance.




 


(ii)             Upon any increase of the Employee's monthly salary, the Company shall deposit in the insurance company or the pension fund any amounts necessary to adjust the allocation for severance (8.33%) to reflect severance pay computation on a 'last salary basis'.


 


The Employee hereby agrees and acknowledges that all of the payments that the Employer shall make to the abovementioned manager’s insurance policy shall be instead of any severance pay to which the Employee or Employee’s successors shall be entitled to receive from the Employer with respect to the salary from which these payments were made and the period during which they were made (the “Termination Salary”), in accordance with Section 14 of the Severance Pay Law 5723-1963 (the “Law”).

The Employee shall execute the Employer's “Employee Car Agreement” prior to receiving the motor vehicle.

The benefits replaces travel expenses payments, to which the Employee shall not be entitled. It is further agreed and acknowledged by the Employee that any benefit arising to the Employee pursuant hereto shall in no way be deemed to form part of the Salary and the Employee shall have no claim against the Employer for any severance pay or any social or other employment benefits arising from or based upon such benefits.


 


(v)             Sick Leave.  The Employee will be entitled to sick leave as provided by law. It is hereby clarified, that to the extent the Employee is entitled to payments under the Employee’s managers insurance policy and/or disability insurance, such payments will be in lieu of the payment of sick leave payments the Employer will be entitled to pay under applicable law.

EMPLOYEE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INVENTIONS AGREEMENT


 


 


I acknowledge that as a result of my employment, I may develop, receive, or otherwise have access to confidential or proprietary information, which is of value to Microbot Medical Ltd.

1.

	
Nondisclosure.







 


1.1.              Recognition of Employer's Rights; Nondisclosure.  At all times during my employment and thereafter, I will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of the Employer's Proprietary Information (as defined below), except as such disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with my work for the Employer. I will obtain the Employer's written approval before publishing or submitting for publication any material (written, verbal, or otherwise) that relates to my work at the Employer and/or incorporates any Employer's Proprietary Information.  I hereby irrevocably assign to the Employer, without any further royalty or payment, any rights I may have or may acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all Proprietary Information shall be the sole property of the Employer and its assigns.


 


1.2.              Proprietary Information.  The term “Proprietary Information” shall mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of the Employer.  By way of illustration but not limitation, “Proprietary Information” includes (a) trade secrets, inventions, mask works, ideas, processes, formulas, source and object codes, data, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs and techniques including such developed by me during my employment or in the course of my engagement with the Employer (prior to the commencement of my employment) in the Employer’s field of business, research or development (excluding inventions not assignable under Section 2.4), (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Inventions”); and (b) information regarding plans for research, development, new products, marketing and selling, business plans, budgets and unpublished financial statements, licenses, prices and costs, suppliers and customers; and (c) information regarding the skills and compensation of other employees of the Employer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that, at all such times, I am free to use information that is generally known in the trade or industry, and that is not gained as result of a breach of the Agreement, to whatever extent and in whichever way I wish.


 


1.3.              Third Party Information.  I understand, in addition, that the Employer has received and in the future will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (the “Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Employer's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes.  During the term of my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than Employer personnel or representatives who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Employer) or use, except in connection with my work for the Employer, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Employer in writing.


 


1.4.              No Improper Use of Information of Prior Employers and Others.  During my employment by the Employer, I will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality, and I will not bring onto the premises of the Employer any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom I have an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that former employer or person.

2.2.           Disclosure of Inventions.  I will promptly disclose in writing to the Employer all Inventions, made or discovered or conceived or reduced to practice or developed by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the term of my employment. I will also disclose to the Employer all Inventions made, discovered, conceived, reduced to practice, or developed by me within three (3) months after the termination of my employment with the Employer which resulted, in whole or in part, from my prior employment by the Employer. Such disclosures shall be received by the Employer in confidence, to the extent such Inventions are not assigned to the Employer pursuant to the Agreement.


 


2.3.           Assignment of Inventions.  Subject to Sections 2.4,  I hereby assign and agree to assign in the future (when any such Inventions or Proprietary Rights are first reduced to practice or first fixed in a tangible medium, as applicable) to the Employer all my right, title and interest in and to any and all Inventions whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or other statutes, made or conceived or reduced to practice or learned by me, either alone or jointly with others, during the period of my employment with the Employer or otherwise relating to the business, products, services, or research and development of the Employer. Inventions assigned to the Employer, or to a third party as directed by the Employer pursuant to the Section 2, are hereinafter referred to as “Employer Inventions”.


 


2.4.           Non-assignable Inventions. Notwithstanding, the Agreement will not be deemed to require assignment of any invention that was developed entirely on my own time without using the Employer's equipment, supplies, facilities, or Proprietary Information and which is not related to the Employer's actual business, research or development. In addition, the Agreement will not apply with respect to inventions, if any, that were reduced to practice, made or conceived by the undersigned not in connection with the undersigned relationship with the Employer and have been fully disclosed to the Employer prior to my engagement with the Employer (“Excluded Inventions”).  All Excluded Inventions existing as of the date hereof are listed in Exhibit 1 hereto.

2.7.           Assignment or Waiver of Moral Rights.  Any assignment of copyright hereunder (and any ownership of a copyright as a work made for hire) includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights” (collectively “Moral Rights”).  To the extent such Moral Rights cannot be assigned under applicable law and to the extent the following is allowed by the laws in the various countries where Moral Rights exist, I hereby waive such Moral Rights and consent to any action of the Employer that would violate such Moral Rights in the absence of such consent.

2.8.           Enforcement of Proprietary Rights.  I will assist the Employer in every proper way to obtain, and from time to time enforce, any Proprietary Rights relating to Employer Inventions in any and all countries.  To that end, I will execute, verify and deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Employer may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof.  In addition, I will execute, verify and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to the Employer or its designee.  My obligation to assist the Employer with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Employer Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the Employer shall compensate me at a reasonable rate after my termination for the time actually spent by me at the Employer's request on such assistance.




 


2.9.           Service Inventions.


 


(a)     For the removal of any doubt, Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.5 above will apply to any “Service Inventions” as defined in the Israeli Patent Law, 1967 (the “Patent Law”), it being clarified that under no circumstances will I be deemed to have any proprietary right in any such Service Invention, notwithstanding the provision or non-provision of any notice of an invention and/or Employer response to any such notice, under Section 132(b) of the Patent Law.  The agreement is expressly intended to be an agreement with regard to the terms and conditions of consideration for Service Inventions in accordance with Section 134 of the Patent Law.


 


(b)                I acknowledge and agree that I will not be entitled to additional royalties, consideration or other payments with regard to any Prior Inventions, Employer Inventions, Service Inventions or any of the intellectual property rights set forth above, including any commercialization of such Prior Inventions, Employer Inventions, Service Inventions or other intellectual property rights, and do hereby explicitly, irrevocably and unconditionally waive the right to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments.  I agree that my role with the Employer expressly entails and may in the future entail generation of “Service Inventions”. Without derogating from the aforesaid, it is hereby clarified that the level of my compensation and consideration has been established based upon the aforementioned waiver of rights to receive any such additional royalties, consideration or other payments, and that my compensation as an employee of the Employer includes full and final compensation and consideration to which I may be entitled under law with respect to any Prior Inventions, Employer Inventions, Service Inventions or any of the intellectual property rights set forth above.


 


2.10.           Records.  I agree to keep and maintain adequate and current records (in the form of notes, sketches, drawings and in any other form that may be required by the Employer) of all of the Employer's Proprietary Information developed by me and all of the Employer's Inventions made by me during the period of my employment at the Employer, which records shall be available to and remain the sole property of the Employer at all times.

General Order and Confirmation Regarding Payments of Employers to Pension Funds and Insurance Funds instead of Severance Pay


 


 


Pursuant to the power granted to me under section 14 of the Severance Pay Law 5723-1963 (“Law”) I hereby confirm that payments paid by an employer, commencing the date hereof, to an employee’s comprehensive pension fund into a provident fund which is not an insurance fund, as defined in the Income Tax Regulations (Registration and Management Rules of a Provident Fund) 5724-1964 (“Pension Fund”), or to a Manager’s Insurance Fund that includes the possibility of an allowance or a combination of payments to an Allowance Plan and to a plan which is not an Allowance Plan in an Insurance Fund (“Insurance Fund”), including payments which the employer paid by combination of payments to a Pension Fund and to an Insurance Fund whether there exists a possibility in the Insurance Fund to an allowance plan (“Employer Payments”), will replace the severance pay that the employee is entitled to for the salary and period of which the payments were paid (“Exempt Wages”) if the following conditions are satisfied:


 


 


 (1)           Employer Payments –


 


 


(A)                      for Pension Funds are not less than 14.33 % of the Exempt Wages or 12% of the Exempt Wages, if the employer pays for his employee an additional payment on behalf of the severance pay completion for a providence fund or Insurance Fund at the rate of 2.33% of the Exempt Wages. If an employer does not pay the additional 2.33% on top of the 12%, then the payment will constitute only 72% of the Severance Pay.


 


 


(B)           to the Insurance Fund are not less that one of the following:


 


 


(1)                13.33% of the Exempt Wages if the employer pays the employee additional payments to insure his monthly income in case of work disability, in a plan approved by the Supervisor of the Capital Market, Insurance and Savings in the Finance Ministry, at the lower of, a rate required to insure 75% of the Exempt Wages or 2.5% of the Exempt Wages (“Disability Payment”).


 


(2)                11% of the Exempt Wages if the employer pays an additional Disability Payment and in the case the Employer Payments will constitute only 72% of the employee’s severance pay; if, in addition to the abovementioned sum, the employer pays 2.33% of the Exempt Wages for the purpose of Severance Pay completion to providence fund or Insurance Funds, the Employer Payments will constitute 100% of the severance pay.


 


 


(2)           A written agreement must be made between the employer and employee no later than 3 months after the commencement of the Employer Payments that includes –


 


 


(A)           the agreement of the employee to the arrangement pursuant to the confirmation which details the Employer Payments and the name of the Pension Fund or Insurance Fund; the agreement must include a copy of the confirmation;


 


 


(B)           an advanced waiver of the employer for any right that he could have to have his payments refunded unless the employee’s right to severance pay is denied by judgment according to sections 16 or 17 of the Law, and in case the employee withdrew monies from the Pension Fund or Insurance Fund not for an Approved Event; for the matter, Approved Event or purpose means death, disablement or retirement at the age of 60 or over.


 


(3)           the confirmation does not derogate from the employee’s entitlement to severance pay according to the Law, Collective Agreement, Extension Order or personal employment agreement, for any salary above the Exempt Wages.
