In addition, if the Company fails to comply with any of its material obligations under this Indemnification Undertaking or in the event that the Company or any other person takes any action to declare this Indemnification Undertaking void or unenforceable, or institutes any action, suit or proceeding to deny or to recover from you the benefits intended to be provided to you hereunder, except with respect to such actions, suits or proceedings brought by the Company  4

Such counsel, among other things, shall render its written opinion to the Company and you as to whether and to what extent you would be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law and the Company agrees to abide by such opinion. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Legal Counsel referred to above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys fees), claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Indemnification Undertaking or its engagement pursuant hereto.  For purposes of this Indemnification Undertaking, Independent Legal Counsel shall mean an attorney or firm of attorneys who shall not have otherwise performed services for the Company or you within the last three years (other than with respect to matters concerning your rights under this Indemnification Undertaking, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnification undertakings).  14.If for the validation of any of the undertakings in this Indemnification Undertaking any act, resolution, approval or other procedure is required, the Company undertakes to cause them to be done or adopted in a manner which will enable the Company to fulfill all its undertakings as aforesaid.  6


15.For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby clarified that nothing contained in this Indemnification Undertaking derogates from the Companys right to indemnify you post factum for any amounts which you may be obligated to pay as set forth in Section 1 above without the limitations set forth in Sections 5 and 6 above.  16.If any undertaking included in this Indemnification Undertaking is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any of the other undertakings which will remain in full force and effect. Furthermore, if such invalid or unenforceable undertaking may be modified or amended so as to be valid and enforceable as a matter of law, such undertaking will be deemed to have been modified or amended, and any competent court or arbitrator are hereby authorized to modify or amend such undertaking, so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  17.This Indemnification Undertaking and the agreements herein shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel.  18. This Indemnification Undertaking cancels any preceding letter of indemnification or arrangement for indemnification that may have been issued to you by the Company.  19.Neither the settlement or termination of any proceeding nor the failure of the Company to award indemnification or to determine that indemnification is payable shall create an adverse presumption that you are not entitled to indemnification hereunder.  In addition, the termination of any proceeding by judgment or order (unless such judgment or order provides so specifically) or settlement, shall not create a presumption that you did not act in good faith and in a manner which you reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that your action was unlawful.  20.This Indemnification Undertaking shall be (a) binding upon all successors and assigns of the Company (including any transferee of all or a substantial portion of the business, stock and/or assets of the Company and any direct or indirect successor by merger or consolidation or otherwise by operation of law), and (b) binding on and shall inure to the benefit of your heirs, personal representatives, executors and administrators.  This Indemnification Undertaking shall continue for your benefit and your heirs, personal representatives, executors and administrators benefit after you cease to be a director or office holder of the Company.  21.Except with respect to changes in the governing law which expand your right to be indemnified by the Company, no supplement, modification or amendment of this Indemnification Undertaking shall be binding unless executed in writing by each of the parties hereto.  No waiver of any of the provisions of this Indemnification Undertaking shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions of this Indemnification Undertaking (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.  This Indemnification Undertaking is being issued to you pursuant to the resolutions adopted by the Audit Committee of the Company on March 4, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company on March 4, 2010 and by the shareholders of the Company on May 17, 2010. The Board of Directors has determined, based on the current activity of the Company, that the total amount of indemnification stated in Section 6 is reasonable and that the events listed in Schedule A are reasonably anticipated.  7
