Description of Short-Term Incentive Plan for Officers

 Exhibit 10.31 
 2012 OFFICER SHORT-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
 On February 14, 2012,
the Compensation Committee of the PG&E Corporation Board of Directors (“Committee”) approved the specific performance targets for each component of the 2012 Short-Term Incentive Plan (“STIP”). The Committee previously
approved the STIP structure and the weighting of each component in December 2011. Officers of PG&E Corporation and Pacific Gas and Electric Company (“Utility”) (together, the “Companies”) are eligible to receive cash
incentives under the STIP based on the extent to which the adopted 2012 performance targets are met. Target cash awards under the STIP may range from 40 percent to 100 percent of base salary depending on officer level, with a maximum payout of 200
percent of the officer’s targeted award, as determined by the Committee. The Committee will retain complete discretion to determine and pay all STIP awards to officers and non-officer employees. This includes discretion to reduce the final
score on any and all measures downward to zero. 
 The Committee approved the 2012 performance targets for each of the three
measures set forth in the table below. 
 The corporate financial performance target, with a weighting of 30%, is based on
PG&E Corporation’s budgeted earnings from operations that were previously approved by the Board of Directors, consistent with the basis for reporting and guidance to the financial community. As with previous earnings performance scales,
unbudgeted items impacting comparability such as changes in accounting methods, workforce restructuring, and one-time occurrences will be excluded. 
 2012 STIP Performance Targets 
  

					
	Measure	  	Relative
Weight	 	2012
Target
	 Safety (includes both Public and Employee metrics) (1)
	  	40.0%	 	1.000
			
	 Customer (includes customer satisfaction and reliability) (2)
	  	30.0%	 	1.000
			
	 Financial (includes Earnings from Operations)
	  	30.0%	 	1.000

  

	1.	Safety is a new measure that includes four subcomponents: (1) Nuclear Operations Safety, (2) Electric Operations Safety, (3) Gas Operations Safety, and
(4) Employee Safety, all of which measure the Utility’s safety performance with respect to each of those areas. The Committee will retain complete discretion to reduce the final Safety rating downward to zero based on the Companies’
overall safety performance for 2012. The Companies’ overall safety performance will be measured both by the quantitative measures described above and by qualitative performance. With respect to qualitative performance, the Committee will
consider the collective impact that the Companies’ business operations have had on public and employee safety. 

  

	2.	Customer is a new measure that includes three subcomponents: (1) Customer Satisfaction Score, which measures overall satisfaction with the Utility’s
operational performance in delivering its services and is the result of a quarterly survey performed by an independent research firm, BlueOcean Market Intelligence, (2) Electric Reliability, and (3) Gas Reliability, both of which measure
the Utility’s reliable energy delivery with respect to electricity and gas.EX4.1

 CaesarStone Sdot Yam Ltd.  
 D.M. Menashe, Sdot Yam 38805  
 Dear Sirs, 

Deed of Approval for Program on a Grants Track 
  

	1.	The Board of the Investment Center considered and discussed your application dated August 5, 2002 for the approval of an investment program in accordance with the
Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959 (hereinafter: the Law) for the expansion of a plant at the Shluchot Tsvayim Park (Industrial Zone) (Development Area A), for the manufacture of polymeric stone slabs at an investment
in a sum of NIS 135,172,000 ($28,760,000). 

  

	2.	The Board decided (Decision No. 1573 — (b) — 4 of November 25, 2002) to approve an investment plan in fixed assets in accordance with the Law,
subject to what is stated in this Deed of Approval and in the appendix which is attached and constitutes an integral part hereof. 

 Subject of the approved program: expansion of plant for manufacture of polymeric stone slabs. 
 At Shluchot Tsvayim Park (Industrial Zone) (Development Area A). 
 The
extent of the investment in the approved program: NIS 135,172,000 ($28,760,000). 
  

	3.	In accordance with a decision of a Ministerial Committee on Economic Affairs EC/66V dated April 3, 1985, the items in the approved program will be linked as
follows: 

  

	 	–	Investments in buildings — to the Buildings Prices Index (basic index: the index of 9-2002 — 785.7713 points). 

 

	 	–	Investments in local equipment and local costs — to the Consumer Price Index (basic index: the index of 09-2002 — 9621.836 points). 

  
 1 

	 	–	Investments in imported equipment — to rate of the US dollar (basic rate: NIS 4.7 = $1). 

The linkage will not apply to investments that were made between the date on which the investments were made and the above mentioned basic
indices. 
  

	4.	Fulfillment of the following conditions and provisions of the law will constitute an essential precondition and a condition precedent to receiving the benefits which
this Deed of Approval confers: 

 At least 30% of the investments in fixed assets shall be funded by additional
paid-up share capital (ordinary shares). 
 The issue and payment up of the capital shall be made concurrent with the current
effecting of the investments in the framework of the approved plan. 
 You will immediately report to the Investment Center in
writing about any change in the state or condition of the corporation, in the implementation of the investment program or in the business results, which could materially affect the implementation of the approved program in accordance with this Deed
of Approval, or the continued operations of the corporation, including an intention to shut down the production line / plant and/or to dismiss or retrench employees, etc. 
 You must report to the Investment Center on a periodic report form, through the Inbal company, by way of a regular report at time intervals of once per calendar year on December 31, regarding
progress in the implementation of the approved program, about the conditions and items thereof and about the allotment and payment up of the required share capital. Failure to report as aforesaid will constitute a breach of the conditions of the
Deed of Approval. 
  

	5.	You must maintain a separate accounting for the program that is the subject of the Deed of Approval, by way of a double-entry accounting system in all aspects connected
with investment in the program. 

  

	6.	We have taken note of your undertaking dated July 23, 2002 to abide by the laws of intellectual property, as same apply from time to time in the State of Israel.
If you are convicted of an infringement of the laws of intellectual property, we will be entitled to cancel any concession or benefit you have received from the Investment Center, including a grant, loan, tax concession and/or any other financial
advantage, or portion of such benefit, and to demand the repayment thereof together with interest and linkage differentials as prescribed by law. 

  

	7.	The commercial relationship between the Company and corporations in which the Company or its owners are interested parties shall be on a basis of market prices and
market conditions, coupled with a proper attribution of expenses. 

  
 2 

	8.	The siting of the plant in the Shluchot Tsvayim Park (Industrial Zone) (Development Area A) constitutes an essential and fundamental condition to the approval of
the program and a breach thereof will constitute grounds for the revocation of the Deed of Approval. 

  

	9.	Implementation of the marketing plan set forth in your letter dated November 28, 2002 constitutes a fundamental condition of the Deed of Approval, and a breach
thereof will constitute grounds for revocation of the Deed of Approval. 

  

	10.	Your Company shall employ at least 150 duly-qualified skilled workers in a full-time job, commencing from the end of the first year for implementation of the program
onwards. 

 The number of duly-qualified skilled workers shall not decrease during the entire period of the
benefits. For these purposes: a full-time job — as is customary in the collective agreement that applies to the sector in regard to the duly-qualified skilled aspect, to which the employee and/or the branch in which the Company engages belongs.

  

	11.	Making of the investments in accordance with the approved program will entitle you to an investment grant at a rate of 20% and a capital grant at a rate of 4% of the
investments in fixed assets. 

  

	12.	Payment of the grants will be subject to what is stated in Section 40H of the Law. 

According to the Arrangements in the National Economy Law (Amendments to Statutes for Attainment of the Budget Targets and the Economic
Policy for the 2002 Financial Year), 5762-2002 — applications for investment grants that are submitted in 2002 will entitle you to only 30% of the grant in respect thereof. 

The balance of the grant will be paid within 60 days after approval of the State budget for the 2003 financial year (together with
linkage differentials and interest within the meaning thereof under the Award of Interest and Linkage Law, 5721-1961, from the date of payment of the first part of the investment grant and up to the date of payment), provided that payment of the
grant meets the remaining conditions under Section 40H of the Law. 
  

	13.	The tax benefits in respect of implementation of the approved program will be given pursuant to Section 47 of the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments.

  

	14.	Revenues deriving from the approved enterprise in development area A will be exempt from companies tax during the first two years of operation of the program and will
give entitlement to concessions in companies tax for an additional five years in accordance with the provisions of the Seventh Chapter of the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments. 

 

	15.	The percentage tax concessions to which the enterprise will be entitled in accordance with this approval will be determined in accordance with Section 74 of the
Law — 

  
 3 

 according to the ratio between the additional turnover (less indirect taxes) above the

APPENDIX TO DEED OF APPROVAL 
 1. This appendix constitutes an integral part of the Deed of Approval. 
 2. The provisions of the
appendix will apply in addition to the provisions of the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 5719-1959 (hereinafter: the Law). 

3. Compliance with the full conditions contained in the Deed of Approval, including the conditions contained in this appendix constitute a precondition
to receiving the benefits under the Law. 
 4. The approved program pursuant to a Deed of Approval relates to investments in building
construction, development, new equipment and machinery only, unless otherwise stated in the Deed of Approval. 
 5. Imported used equipment,
which has been approved by the Board of the Investment Center and is included in a Deed of Approval, must be examined by an appraiser on behalf of the Investment Center, prior to any grant being paid out of the State budget. 

6. The receipt of benefits under the Law is contingent upon the due maintaining of proper books of account by the double entry accounting system.

 7. According to the Public Bodies Transactions Law (Enforcement of Keeping of Accounts) (Amendment No. 2), 5750-1990, the holder of a
Deed of Approval must, at the beginning of each tax year, present confirmation to the bank through which the program is implemented from an authorized official (as defined in the Law) regarding the keeping of books of account and records in
accordance with the Public Bodies Transactions Law. 
 8. No grants will be paid if it transpires that the corporation has a debt to the
Ministry of Industry and Trade. Grants will be paid only after the corporation which holds a Deed of Approval furnishes a certificate from the accountant of the Ministry of Industry and Trade evidencing that the debt has been discharged and/or
settled. 
 9. A change in the composition of owners of the corporation which owns an approved enterprise, including a cumulative public
offering on a stock exchange in excess of 49%, and including a private placement at any percentage whatsoever, in the period of implementation of an approved program and up to the end of the period of benefits, requires the prior written approval of
the Investment Center. 
 10. A company which issues shares and/or debentures convertible into shares on a stock exchange, up to a percentage of
49% of the ownership of the company (including previous issues and including the exercise of debentures and/or options, up to a full dilution) will be exempt from obtaining prior approval from the Investment Center. This exemption will not apply to
the sale of shares held by controlling shareholders within the meaning of that term under Section 3(i)(1)C of the Income Tax Ordinance. 

  
 1 

 A company making a public offering under the abovementioned conditions must report to that effect to the
Investment Center not later than the end of sixty days from the date of the public offering. Details shall be given in the report of: 
 - The
stock exchange on which the public offering was made. 
 - Particulars about the structure of ownership prior to the public offering and
subsequent thereto, including an indication of foreign investors. 
 11. Any change in an approved program and in the conditions thereof in
relation to what is stated in the application for receiving an approved enterprise and in the Deed of Approval, such as: the addition or depletion of equipment, updating of price increases, change in the items of the investment, a change in the
product or a change in the place of the investment, necessitates the obtaining of prior written approval from the Investment Center. Every application for a change shall be made on a suitable form and in accordance with the instructions that are
published from time to time by the Investment Center. 
 12. An approved enterprise on an alternative track must lodge a periodic performance
report with the Investment Center in regard to progress in the implementation of the approved program, and in regard to the conditions and items thereof, and about the issue and payment up of the corporation’s capital, as required. The report
shall be lodged on a suitable form and shall be made at time intervals of once per year on December 31. Such report shall be submitted to Inbal Insurance Company Ltd. 
 An approved enterprise on a grants track shall report on performance through the bank at which the program is implemented. 
 13. After the investments have been made and confirmation has been received about implementation of the program, every “approved enterprise”, on any of the benefit tracks, must continue to
report on the business results during the entire period of entitlement to benefits. The report shall be submitted to Inbal Insurance Company Ltd. once every calendar year not later than January 31 following the end of each year. 

14. Three months after the end of implementation of an approved program, or from the final date for the implementation thereof, as shall be specified by
the Board of the Investment Center — whichever is the earlier — or on a demand from the auditing division at the Investment Center, a corporation which holds a Deed of Approval must deliver a final performance report in respect of the
approved program. The report shall be submitted on appropriate forms and shall be signed by the general manager of the corporation, duly authenticated by an accountant who signed the corporation’s audited annual financial statements.

 15. A corporation which holds a Deed of Approval must furnish the Investment Center, or someone on its behalf, at its request, with
information, documents and other evidence in connection with the implementation of an approved program, evidencing compliance with the approval and the conditions of the Law. In addition, it is obliged to assist the Investment Center and persons
acting on its behalf in carrying out examinations, including the obligation for enabling them to visit the enterprise and any other place at which the corporation carries on business, at any time. This applies both during the period of
implementation and also on completion of the entire period of benefits. 
 16. Where a corporation implements an approved program, or parts
thereof, through a related corporation, the following rules will apply to it: 

  
 2 

 a. The corporation shall report to the Investment Center that the approved program is being implemented by
the related corporation. 
 b. The Investment Center will be entitled, in its discretion, to carry out examinations in order to verify
compliance with the conditions of the Law, the conditions of the approved program and the conditions of the Deed of Approval in the books of account and the documents of the related corporation, and to receive from it all the documents that may be
required by it, as stated in Paragraph 13 above. 
 For these purposes — “related corporation” is a body corporate or a
person in respect of whom one of the following applies: 
 1. Anyone who directly or indirectly controls any entity to whom a Deed of Approval
was granted. 
 2. A corporation in which control, direct or indirect, is held by an entity to whom a Deed of Approval was granted. 

3. A corporation in which control, direct or indirect, is held by an entity in respect of whom the provisions of sub-paragraphs (1) or
(2) below apply: 
 1) The holding alone, through a family relative or together with a family relative, of at least 10% of a particular
class of means of control in the corporation. For these purposes — “means of control”: according to the meaning thereof in the Securities Law, 5728-1968. 
 2) The ability, alone, through a family relative or together with a family relative, to direct the operations of a corporation, except ability arising solely from fulfilling the function of director or
other officer in the corporation. 
 “Family relative” — a spouse, parent, parent’s parent, brother or sister, descendant,
descendant of a spouse and the spouses of any of the persons mentioned above, as well as any other person who is an agent, partner, employee or subordinate. 
 17. It is possible to start receiving tax benefits in respect of an approved program prior to the lodgment of a final performance report, and after receipt of a provisional approval from the auditing
division at the Investment Center regarding significant activation of the program. The validity of the provisional approval is for a period of up to 12 months. 
 18. “The approved enterprise” shall act in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deed of Approval during the entire period of benefits and not less than seven years (and in the case of
an accommodation providing project in the tourism industry, not less than twelve years) commencing from the date of lodgment of a final performance report with the auditing division at the Investment Center. Non-compliance with the conditions set
forth in this paragraph will constitute grounds for retroactive rescission of a Deed of Approval and for demanding repayment of grants and benefits, in accordance with a decision of the Investment Center. The tax benefits will only be given where
the corporation has acted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deed of Approval during the entire period of benefits. 
 19. A
corporation is entitled to appeal against the contents of a Deed of Approval, as stated in Section 25 of the Law, within sixty days from the date of receipt thereof. The appeal shall be in writing and shall be reasoned, and it shall be lodged
with the Investment Center.

	3.	Within the limits of the amount that was implemented and recognized, the approved enterprise, which was initially put into operation in the 2005 tax year (hereinafter:
Year of Initial Operation) is granted the benefits contained in the abovementioned law. 

  

	4.	The tax benefits or concessions will be given pursuant to Section 47 of the Law. 

 

	5.	The percentage of the tax concessions to which the enterprise will be entitled according to this confirmation will be determined in accordance with Section 74 of
the Law according to the ratio between the additional turnover (less indirect taxes) above the enterprise’s turnover in the base year, where same is increased by the percentage change in the wholesale prices index of industrial output, and the
total turnover in each year of the years of tax concessions. 

 For these purposes: the base year — the last
year of full production prior to initial operation of the expansion. Change in index — the change in the aforesaid index in the period between the last month in the base year and the last month in the tax year. 

 

	6.	Implementation of the marketing program described in your letter dated November 28, 2002 constitutes a precondition for receiving the benefits pursuant to this
confirmation. 

  

	7.	We have taken note of your undertaking dated July 23, 2002 to abide by the laws of intellectual property, as are customarily practiced from time to time in the
State of Israel. If your corporation is convicted of a breach of intellectual property laws, we will be entitled retroactively to cancel any tax benefit you may have received from the Investment Center, including a grant, tax concession and/or any
other financial advantage, or portion of such benefit, and to demand the repayment thereof together with interest and linkage differentials according to law. 

 

	8.	Your company will employ at least 100 duly qualified skilled workers on a full-time job. 

 

	9.	The number of duly qualified skilled workers will not decrease during the entire period of benefits. For these purposes: full-time job — as is customary under the
collective agreement which applies to the sector of trade to which the employee belongs and/or the branch in which the company engages. 

  

	10.	You will maintain separate accounting for the program that is the subject of the Deed of Approval, on a double-entry accounting system in connection with everything
relating to an investment in the program. 

  

	11.	The commercial relationship between the company and the corporations in which the company or its owners are interested parties will be on the basis of market prices and
market conditions, with proper attribution of expenses. 

  
 2 

	12.	Nothing contained in this confirmation constitutes written authority for the payment of grants, except according to the provisions of the law and the rules for the
payment of grants. 

  

	13.	A basic condition to the benefits pursuant to this confirmation is — the approved enterprise shall operate for a period that shall not be less than 7 years
from the abovementioned year of initial operation. 

 All the particulars of your corporation and the details of
the approved program, including the structure of incorporation, composition of shareholders, location of the enterprise, the product and the composition of investments, constitute terms and conditions of this confirmation and any change therein
necessitates the prior approval of the Investment Center until the end of the period of benefits pursuant to this confirmation and/or 7 years from the year of initial operation, whichever is the later. 

You are required to submit a periodic report to the Investment Center three months from the end of two years and from the end of six years
from the end of the year in which this confirmation was issued. 
 Details shall be given in the periodic report of turnovers,
local sales and export sales, and number of employees from the year of initial operation and up to the time of lodgment of the report, according to years.

 LICENSE AGREEMENT 

made and entered into at Kibbutz Sdot yam on the 31st day of March 2011 
  

			
	Between:	  	 CAESARSTONE SDOT YAM LTD.

Pvte. Co. 51-143950
 of Kibbutz Sdot
yam
 (hereinafter: “the Company”)

		
		  	of the one part;
		
	And:	  	 SDOT YAM COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY ENTERPRISES LTD.
 Pvte. Co. 57-004566-6
 of Kibbutz Sdot yam
 (hereinafter: “the Kibbutz”)

		
		  	of the other part;
		
	WHEREAS	  	According to an agreement signed between the Company and the Kibbutz to which this license agreement is an appendix (“the Main Agreement”), the Kibbutz acquired the
rights in the Land (as defined in the Main Agreement) from the Company; and
		
	WHEREAS	  	The Company operates a plant which is located on the Land (including storage and office areas); and
		
	WHEREAS	  	The Company wishes to receive permission from the Kibbutz to use the Land for the period and on the conditions as set forth in this Agreement, and the Kibbutz agrees to grant the
Company a license to use the Land as aforesaid, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement;

 Now therefore it is declared and agreed by the parties as follows:  

 

	1.	Preamble, appendices and definitions 

  

	 	1.1	The preamble to this Agreement and the appendices hereto constitute an integral part hereof. 

 

	 	1.2	Headings to clauses in this Agreement are solely for the ease of reading and no significance shall be accorded to them in the interpretation of this Agreement or any of
the provisions hereof. 

  

	 	1.3	In this Agreement the following terms will have the meaning opposite them, unless otherwise expressly stated. 

 

	 	1.3.1	“The Buildings” — the Buildings which stand on the Land and constitute the Company’s plant and the installations thereof (including storage
areas). 

  
 1 

	 	1.3.2	“The index” — the Consumer Price Index, including fruit and vegetables, which is published by the Central Bureau of Statistics and/or any other
index that may be specified by the Central Bureau of Statistics and may come in its stead and/or replace it. 

  

	 	1.3.3	“Purpose of the license” — the operation of the plant including everything connected and required for the purpose, at present and in the future,
in the Company’s discretion, for purposes of operating the plant, storage of raw materials and finished products and for offices. 

  

	 	1.3.4	“The plant” — the Company’s plant which at present engages in the development, manufacture, distribution and marketing of quartz surfaces;
semi-precious stones and additional associated products, whether produced at present or as will be produced by the Company in the future. 

  

	 	1.3.5	“The Land” or “the License Area” — as defined in the Main Agreement, including the Buildings and everything permanently affixed
thereto at the date of signing of this Agreement. 

  

	2.	Condition precedent  

  

	 	2.1	It is agreed between the parties that this Agreement is subject to the closing and completion of the public offering, as this term is defined below (“the
Condition Precedent”) and that it will come into force upon the substantive closing and completion of the sale transaction, as same is defined in the Main Agreement. 

 

	 	2.2	For the removal of doubt, it is clarified that until the time at which the Condition Precedent is fulfilled and the substantive completion and closing of the sale
transaction, as defined in the Main Agreement, this Agreement will be of no validity. If the Condition Precedent is not fulfilled on or before December 31, 2011, this Agreement will be deemed to be null and void in all respects as if it had
never been signed. 

  

	 	2.3	“Completion of the public offering” for purposes of this Agreement will be deemed to be the date on which the Seller receives the first moneys that
will be raised by it in an initial public offering of the Seller’s shares on a stock exchange in the USA (NASDAQ or NYSE). 

  

	3.	The license  

  

	 	3.1	Subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Kibbutz hereby permits the Company to make use of the License Areas, including the Buildings, with the
status of a licensee, during the license period and solely for the purpose of the license. 

  
 2 

	 	3.2	The Company undertakes not to use and not to allow the use of the License Areas (including the Buildings) or any part thereof, for any other purpose apart from the
purpose of the license, except with the prior written consent of the Kibbutz. 

  

	 	3.3	Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a lease relationship between the parties, whether protected tenancy or unprotected tenancy. The
Company’s rights pursuant to this Agreement in the License Areas (including the Buildings) are temporary rights of use only (during the license period as defined below), as described in this Agreement. 

 

	 	3.4	 Without prejudice to the foregoing, for the removal of doubt it is clarified by the Kibbutz that the Land is an area which was vacated after 26th Av 5728 (August 20, 1968) of any tenant entitled to occupy it,
and has not been leased under key money. 

  

	 	    	The licensee (including the Company) and/or a lessee have also not paid and will not pay the Kibbutz key money or any other payment likely to be construed as key money,
including, and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, in respect of works, alterations, improvements and/or enhancements which have been made or which may be made on the Land and in the Buildings prior to the license period and/or
during the course thereof. 

  

	 	    	The permission to use which is granted under this Agreement shall not be protected by the Tenants Protection Law (Consolidated Version), 5732-1973 or pursuant to the
remaining tenants protection laws and regulations and the aforesaid laws and regulations will not apply to the license, to the Company, to the Land and the Buildings and to this Agreement. 

 

	 	3.5	The Company hereby declares that it has, inter alia, examined the suitability of the License Areas (including the Buildings) to the purpose of the license
(including the physical, legal and zoning condition thereof) and its ability to obtain a license and/or licenses that are required for the purpose of the license, including for the operation of the plant in the License Areas, and that it has found
everything to be fully suitable for its objectives and its uses. 

  

	 	    	The Company hereby expressly waives in advance any allegation of defect and/or blemish and/or non-conformity in respect of the License Areas and/or the Buildings and/or
the Kibbutz’s rights in the License Areas and/or the use that it can and is entitled to make of the License Areas, save and except a latent defect and/or latent non-conformity. 

 

	4.	The license period and the scope and extent of the License Areas 

 

	 	4.1	 The license period pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement is for a period of 10 (ten) years, commencing on the date of commencement of the
license period (“the First License Period”). “Date of commencement of the license period” means — the first day of the month following the time of fulfillment of the substantive closing and completion of the sale
transaction as this term is defined in 

  
 3 

	 	
the Main Agreement. At the end of the First License Period, the validity of the license will automatically be extended for an additional period of ten years (“the Additional License
Period” and together with the First License Period: “the License Period” for purposes of this Agreement), unless the Company notifies the Kibbutz in writing, at least two years before the end of the First License Period,
that it does not wish to extend the License Period — and in such case the License Period will terminate at the end of the First License Period. For the removal of doubt it is clarified that in the Additional License Period all the provisions of
this Agreement will continue to apply (subject to the contents of the last part of Clause 5.4 below). 

  

	 	4.2	The License Areas will be fixed throughout the entire License Period and the Company will not be entitled to reduce same and/or to return any areas to the Kibbutz. The
Company will be obliged to pay the full user fees as stated in this Agreement, for the full License Areas, even in a situation in which — for any reason whatsoever — it does not make any use of the areas of the License Period.

  

	 	4.3	The Company undertakes not to assign and/or transfer its rights in the License Areas pursuant to this Agreement, or any portion thereof, in whole or in part, to another
or to others, in any manner whatsoever; and not to make over and/or transfer and/or allow any use of any sort in the License Areas or in any part thereof (including the Buildings), to another or to others, in any manner whatsoever, including as a
licensee, whether for consideration or otherwise — except in the manner stated in Clause 4.5 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will be entitled to assign all its rights and obligations under this Agreement as a consequence of a
merger of the Company with a third party (to that party into which it is merged) and/or a sale of most or all its assets (to that party to whom the assets are sold) — without the necessity for obtaining approval from the Kibbutz, subject to the
condition that any such assignment will be conditional upon the assignee undertaking in writing to assume all the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that the grant of permission
to use the License Areas or any part thereof (including the Buildings), to corporations under the control of the Company and/or which control the Company and/or which are controlled by the controlling shareholders in the Company (“Permitted
Transferee”) will not require the Kibbutz’s approval, on condition that the Permitted Transferee has delivered a deed of undertaking to the Kibbutz in which it undertakes to fulfill all the obligations imposed on the Company pursuant
to this Agreement, without this prejudicing the force and validity of the Company’s obligations to the Kibbutz (including payment of the user fees as stated in this Agreement) which shall remain in force, jointly and severally with the
obligations of the Permitted Transferee as aforesaid. 

  

	 	4.4	The Company hereby further undertakes not to encumber and/or pledge its rights, in whole or in part, and/or to grant any other right to any third party in the License
Areas, or in any part thereof, to another or to others, in any manner whatsoever, unless it has received the prior written consent thereto of the Kibbutz. Nothing contained in this clause shall derogate from the provisions of Clause 4.3 above.

	 	4.5	Without derogating from the contents of Clauses 4.1 to 4.3 above and notwithstanding the contents of Clause 4.2, the Company will be entitled to refer to the Kibbutz in
writing at any time with an application to return any areas forming part of the License Areas to the Kibbutz, coupled with mentioning the time at which the Company wishes to return such areas to the Kibbutz. The Kibbutz will be given a period of
three months from the date of the Company’s referral in which to consider the application — and to give notice whether or not it agrees thereto, all in its full and sole discretion and without there being any obligation upon it to give
reasons for its decision. 

  

	 	    	Should the Kibbutz decide within three months not to accede to such application by the Company for the return of areas forming part of the License Areas, or not to take
any decision in relation to such application by the Company within three months, the Company will be entitled to look for another entity for the aforesaid area it offered to return to the Kibbutz, where the identity of such other entity shall be
agreed by the Kibbutz and approved expressly and in writing, and to allow it the status of a sub-licensee in the aforesaid area — provided that the Company shall continue to be liable for all its obligations to the Kibbutz under this Agreement
in respect of the aforesaid area (including and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, full payment of the amounts it is obliged to pay the Kibbutz under this Agreement in connection with that area). Should the Kibbutz decide to
accede to the Company’s aforesaid application, the license in respect of that area in relation to which the Company requested to cancel the license will be cancelled at the time specified in the Company’s application, and the provisions of
Clause 11 below shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the area in relation to which the license was cancelled. 

  

	5.	User fees 

  

	 	5.1	The Company undertakes to pay the Kibbutz for the use of the License Areas during the License Period, user fees in a sum of NIS 345,500 [three hundred and forty-five
thousand five hundred] per month (that is NIS 4,146,000 [four million one hundred and forty-six thousand new shekels] per annum), which in the opinion of both the parties constitutes fair and reasonable user fees for the License Areas, all together
with V.A.T. as prescribed by law according to the rate thereof at the time each payment is made, and plus linkage differentials to the index as described below (“the User Fees”). 

 

	 	5.2	 The User Fees that will be payable by the Company will be updated upwards (only) once every six months (in other words commencing from the 30th day of the sixth month of the First License Period and every six
months thereafter), in the event of a rise in the Consumer Price Index as against the basic index. At every such date if it transpires that the new index (as defined below) is higher than the basic index (as defined below), the User Fees which the
Company will pay the Kibbutz commencing from that date onwards will increase by the percentage by which the new index has risen as compared with the basic index. For the removal of doubt it is clarified that a fall in the index below the basic index
will not entitle the Company to a deduction in the amount of the User Fees that are payable. 

  
 5 

	 	    	For purposes of the foregoing, “the basic index” means the index known on the date of commence of the License Period; “the new index”
means the index last published before the date of calculation. 

  

	 	5.3	The User Fees will be paid by the Company to the Kibbutz as follows: up to the start of each year (“the Forthcoming Year”), CaesarStone will transfer
12 checks payable to payee only to Sdot Yam each of which in an amount equivalent to 1/12 of the User Fees as specified above for the Forthcoming Year, and the due date for payment of each check shall be the first of each calendar month in the
Forthcoming Year. The abovementioned linkage differentials shall be paid not later than January 31 of each year in respect of the preceding year. Transfer of the checks as aforesaid to Sdot Yam will be deemed for all intents and purposes to be
payment by the Company to the Kibbutz, except in a case in which the checks are not met upon presentation for payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the User Fees for the first calendar year of the License Period will be transferred to the Kibbutz
by the Company in monthly payments as aforesaid immediately after the coming into force of this Agreement (and will be until the end of the first calendar year only). 

 

	 	5.4	Commencing from January 1, 2021, during every License Period (but not later than once every three years), the Kibbutz will be entitled to appoint a real estate
appraiser (whose identity shall be agreed by the Company, and if his identity is not agreed within 30 days from the date the Kibbutz applied to the Company in writing, the Kibbutz will appoint the real estate appraiser out of the recommended
list of real estate appraisers of Bank Leumi le-Israel B.M., as prevailing at that time) in order for him to assess the fair and reasonable User Fees for the License Areas. In the event that such real estate appraiser is appointed as aforesaid, the
User Fees will be updated in accordance with the real estate appraiser’s decision. 

  

	 	5.5	Without derogating from and/or without prejudice to any remedy or relief available to the Kibbutz pursuant to this Agreement and/or according to any law, each payment
of User Fees which is not paid on due date in accordance with Clause 5.3 shall bear penalty interest at the rate of interest prevailing for the time being at Bank Leumi le-Israel B.M. in respect of an exceeding of an approved credit framework in
current business accounts, commencing from the elapse of 10 days from the date intended for the payment of each such payment and up to the date of actual payment thereof. 

 

	6.	Taxes and payments 

  

	 	6.1	All the taxes, fees, levies, payments and rates, governmental, municipal, local and/or other, which are imposed on lessees and/or users in relation to the License Areas
and/or the Buildings and/or for the purpose of the license, as well as all the remaining payments which apply according to law to lessees and/or users, including and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, payments of rates, local
committee taxes, electricity, water, communications and so forth, which exist at the time of signing of this Agreement and/or which may be imposed in the future, shall be borne by the Company and shall be paid by it regularly and on due date.

  
 6 

	 	6.2	On a demand by the Kibbutz, the Company shall furnish the Kibbutz with certificates and receipts indicating the making of all of the payments which the Company is
liable to pay as aforesaid. 

  

	 	6.3	The Kibbutz will be entitled (but not obliged), to pay any amount the obligation for payment of which is imposed on the Company according to this Agreement and has not
been paid by it within 30 days from the date on which such amount was supposed to be paid, provided that the Kibbutz shall give the Company written notice of its intention to make such payment at least 14 days in advance.

  

	 	    	The Company shall refund to the Kibbutz any payment that may be paid by it as aforesaid, together with interest at the rate mentioned in Clause 5.5 above, reckoned from
the date such amount was paid by the Kibbutz and up to the date of reimbursement thereof to the Kibbutz by the Company. 

  

	 	6.4	The Kibbutz shall bear the payment of taxes in relation to the License Areas, which apply to a land owner and/or long leasehold lessee, including, but without
limitation, leasehold fees to the Lands Administration — whether existing at present or which may exist in the future, and it agrees that if a new tax and/or new fee and/or new levy and/or any other payment which by its nature applies to owners
and/or leasehold lessees of land (“the New Tax”) should be imposed by the government and/or any authority or other body, then the Kibbutz will pay the New Tax. 

 

	7.	Additional building construction on the Land  

  

	 	7.1	In a case in which the Company wishes to carry out additional building construction and/or any other improvements in the License Areas (including the Buildings)
(“the Additional Construction”), then the following will apply: 

  

	 	7.1.1	The Company will notify the Kibbutz in writing of its desire to carry out Additional Construction (in respect of industrial areas — construction to an envelope
level only at customary standards, and in respect of offices — full building construction at normal and customary standards), and the objects and the scope and extent thereof. 

 

	 	7.1.2	Within a reasonable time the Kibbutz will take steps to obtain the necessary licenses and/or permits for purposes of performing such building construction.

  

	 	7.1.3	In addition, subject to obtaining a building permit and any other approval and/or permit and/or license required according to law, the Kibbutz will, within a reasonable
time and by coordination with the Company, perform the additional building construction out of moneys of a loan with which the Company will provide it according to market conditions (in an amount to cover the full Additional Construction —
including the full planning costs that include the issue of the building permits and/or payment of levies and fees in respect thereof), the execution and the financial expenses during the period of construction) (“the Loan”).

  
 7 

	 	7.1.4	Commencing from the date on which the areas of the Additional Construction are delivered to the Company, the User Fees which the Company will pay the Kibbutz shall
increase by amounts that will be derived from the level of User Fees specified in this Agreement (and all the remaining contents of Clauses 5.1 to 5.4 above) in respect of the areas of the Additional Construction (“Additional User Fees for
the Additional Construction”). 

  

	 	7.1.5	The Loan will be repaid by the Kibbutz solely by way of a full set-off against the Additional User Fees for the Additional Construction, and only against that, until
the Loan has been repaid, including the full interest in respect thereof (or if at the date of termination of the License Period the full Loan has not yet been repaid, the balance of the Loan which has not yet been repaid will be fully discharged on
the date of termination of the License Period). For the avoidance of doubt it is clarified that the User Fees specified in Clauses 5.1 to 5.4 above will under no circumstances be reduced, and the Company will not be entitled to set off any amounts
against them, including on account of repayment of the amounts of the Loan it will provide to the Kibbutz as aforesaid for purposes of performing the Additional Construction. 

 

	 	7.2	In the event that the Company should wish to perform Additional Construction and/or any other improvements in the License Areas and/or in the Buildings, which are not
for purposes of offices and/or are in excess of building construction at the level of an envelope with respect to industrial areas (“the Works”), the Works will be performed by the Company and at its expense after receipt of a
building permit and any other approval and/or permit and/or license that is required according to law, subject to the condition that same are in accordance with the Purpose of the License and without this in any way altering the actual user fees
which the Company will pay to the Kibbutz as stated in this Agreement. 

  

	 	7.3	The Company undertakes not to carry out and not to perform any alterations and/or repairs and/or enhancements and/or improvements and/or any constructional additions
and/or demolition of buildings or part thereof and/or any other building construction work, of any sort whatsoever, in the License Areas, except in accordance with provisions of Clauses 7.1 and 7.2 above. 

 

	 	7.4	All the results of the Additional Construction and/or the Works (for the removal of doubt — all the repairs, enhancements, improvements, alterations and additions)
which are permanently affixed to the Land will have the status of being the sole property of the Kibbutz, and the Company will not be entitled to dismantle and/or remove same from the License Areas at any stage, including after the end of the
License Period, and it will not be entitled to any payment in respect thereof from the Kibbutz and/or to any reduction in the User Fees specified in this Agreement (apart from repayment of the loan, as mentioned in Clause 7.1.3 above, if and to the
extent that it is provided). 

  
 8 

	 	7.5	Where any works have been performed contrary to the provisions of Clauses 7.1 or 7.2 above (“Prohibited Work”), then without derogating from the
Kibbutz’s right to treat same as a material breach of this Agreement and without derogating from any other remedy available to the Kibbutz pursuant to this Agreement and/or according to any law, the Kibbutz will be entitled to demand from the
Company to demolish the Prohibited Work and to restore the situation to its former condition (as applied prior to performance of the Works), and in such event the Company will be obliged to demolish the Prohibited Work and to perform all the repairs
required in the License Areas that are necessary in order to return the License Areas to the Kibbutz in the condition they were prior to the Prohibited Works being performed. 

 

	8.	Use of the License Areas and maintenance thereof 

  

	 	8.1	The Company undertakes to allow the authorized entity on behalf of the Kibbutz, about whom the Kibbutz will notify the Company in writing and/or the legal
representatives of the Kibbutz, to enter upon the License Areas at any reasonable time, by prior arrangement with the Company, in order to inspect and examine the state of the License Areas and the conformance of the activities in the License Areas
to the purpose of the license. 

  

	 	8.2	The Company is responsible for the fulfillment and performance of the provisions of any law, regulation, order or bylaw, in connection with the License Areas.

  

	 	8.3	The Company undertakes to do its best in order to prevent any eyesore and/or nuisance and/or damage and/or inconvenience being created as a result of the use of the
License Areas (including the Buildings) for persons who are in close proximity to the License Areas and/or to any of their property (apart from inconvenience caused by virtue of the reasonable operations of the Company’s plant). Without
derogating from the foregoing and included in this, the Company undertakes, subject to the character of the activities in the plant, to meticulously maintain the cleanliness of the License Areas and their immediate surrounds and to act in order not
to cause a nuisance or unpleasantness to persons who are in close proximity to the License Areas. 

  

	 	8.4	The Company will be fully and exclusively responsible to all the governmental, municipal and local institutions and authorities and to any other competent authorities,
and also to the Kibbutz, for the payment of all the fines and/or the compensation resulting from non-compliance with the provisions of this Clause 8. 

  

	9.	Licensing and licenses 

  

	 	9.1	The Company declares that it is conversant with the conditions required for purposes of obtaining the licenses and permits that are necessary according to any law and
from all the governmental, municipal, and local institutions and authorities, and any other competent authority, for operating its business in the 

  
 9 

	 	    	License Areas — and it hereby undertakes to obtain any license required by it and to see to it that its business is conducted throughout the entire period of
permission in conformity with any license and permit required by any relevant authority. The Company shall at its expense bear all the payments required for obtaining the abovementioned licenses and permits. 

 

	 	9.2	If any competent authority should make the issue of a license and/or permit for operating the plant in the License Areas conditional upon the performing of works or any
building construction within the Buildings, the Company will be obliged to do so and in this regard the provisions of Clause 7 will apply, as the case may be. 

 

	 	9.3	It is hereby agreed that the Kibbutz is not responsible to the Company for obtaining any licenses or permits from the competent authorities that are necessary in
connection with the operation of the Company’s business in the License Areas, but the Kibbutz will do everything it can in order to assist the Company in obtaining such approvals or licenses. 

 

	10.	Liability and insurance  

  

	 	10.1	The Kibbutz, including any of its members and residents, any of the office-bearers in the Kibbutz and anyone acting on behalf of or for the Kibbutz (collectively:
“the Kibbutz Individuals”), will not be responsible in any way and vis-à-vis any party, for any bodily damage and/or damage to property and/or loss and/or expense of whatsoever nature, which may be incurred by the
Company and/or any of the officers therein and/or any of its employees and/or anyone engaged by it (including Kibbutz members whom the Kibbutz places at the disposal of the Company in accordance with the provisions of the manpower agreement between
the Kibbutz and the Company) and/or any of its agents and/or any of its customers and/or any of its visitors and/or any other person who may for any reason be in the License Areas (including the Buildings), in respect of anything connected with
and/or relating to and/or arising from the permission for use which is granted to the Company under this Agreement and/or due to any use that may actually be made by any entity in the License Areas (including the Buildings), except in respect of a
malicious act or omission on the part of the Kibbutz and/or any of the Kibbutz Individuals and/or in respect of a breach of this Agreement by the Kibbutz. 

  

	 	10.2	 The Company undertakes to compensate the Kibbutz and to hold it harmless, including any of the Kibbutz Individuals (“the Indemnified
Persons”) by way of full compensation and indemnity, for any amount any of the Indemnified Persons may be ordered to pay pursuant to a final judgment (including costs of the suit and also including reasonable attorney’s fees that any
of the Indemnified Persons may be required to incur) and in respect of any liability imposed on any of the Indemnified Persons due to any matter or thing that is under the Company’s responsibility according to any law and/or in respect of
liability that may be imposed on any of the Indemnified Persons by virtue of any bodily damage and/or damage to property and/or loss and/or expense that was sustained by any entity, including the Kibbutz and/or any of the Kibbutz Individuals and/or
the Company 

  
 10 

	 	
and/or any of the officers therein and/or any of its employees and/or any of those engaged by it (including Kibbutz members whom the Kibbutz places at the Company’s disposal in accordance
with the provisions of the manpower agreement between the Kibbutz and the Company) and/or any of its agents and/or any of its customers and/or any of its visitors and/or any other person who may for any reason be in the License Areas (including the
Buildings) during the License Period, except in respect of a malicious act or omission on the part of the Kibbutz and/or any of the Kibbutz Individuals and/or in respect of a breach of this Agreement by the Kibbutz. The indemnity under this clause
is subject to the Kibbutz delivering to the Company, shortly after the receipt thereof, the demand and/or the claim that may be filed, and that it enables the Company to conduct the defense against any such claim, including to attorneys on its
behalf (and at the Company’s expense), and that it shall fully cooperate with it and will not compromise and/or conduct negotiations towards a compromise without obtaining the Company’s prior written consent. 

 

	 	10.3	Without derogating in any way from anything in the foregoing, the Company undertakes to purchase from a recognized insurance company having a good reputation in Israel
and to maintain throughout the entire period of permission, insurance policies for itself and any third party, including insurance of the Buildings and the contents of the Buildings at their full replacement value, against the normal risks in
extended fire insurance, as well as liability insurance according to law for accidental physical damage (“the Insurance Policy”) to such extent of cover (per event and per period), and on such conditions that will not be materially
inferior to the terms and conditions of the Company’s existing insurance policies at the date of signing of this Agreement, and which are attached to this Agreement as Appendix A. The Company undertakes to pay the full
premiums in connection with the Insurance Policy on time and according to due date and to fully comply with all the remaining terms and conditions of the Insurance Policy. 

 

	 	10.4	The Kibbutz, including any of the Kibbutz Individuals, will be included as additional insureds in the Policy for the Building (subject to the condition that the
insurance compensation under the Policy for the Building, in a case that an insurance event has occurred, will be paid to the Company and will serve solely for reconstruction and rehabilitation of the Building), and in the Company’s third party
policy. An express condition shall also be included in the insurance policy pursuant to which the insurer is not entitled to cancel the policies and/or to reduce the extent of cover under them and/or not to renew same, unless the insurer has
notified the Kibbutz by registered mail of its intention to do so at least 60 days in advance. The insurance policy shall also include an express clause regarding a waiver by the insurer of its right of subrogation against the Kibbutz,
including any of its members and residents and any of the office-bearers in the Kibbutz. 

  

	 	10.5	The Company shall send a copy of all the insurance policies for inspection and perusal by the Kibbutz. 

  
 11 

	 	10.6	For the removal of doubt it is clarified that nothing in the foregoing in regard to the insurance policies has the effect of in any way eliminating and/or reducing the
Company’s responsibility and its liability as set forth in this Clause 10 and/or of imposing any obligation and/or responsibility on the Kibbutz in a case in which the insurance policies are insufficient to cover the damage that is supposed to
be covered by the insurance policy, or in the event that it should become apparent that certain damage is not covered under the insurance policy. 

  

	11.	Vacation 

  

	 	11.1	At the end of the License Period or in a case in which the license should terminate before the end of the License Period for any reason (“the Date of
Vacation”), the Company undertakes to return the License Areas to the Kibbutz (including the Buildings), where same are completely empty and vacant of any person and article which is not permanently affixed to the Land, and where the
envelope of the Buildings is in good condition, apart from wear and tear arising from reasonable use. For the removal of doubt it is clarified that notwithstanding the foregoing, means of production, assets and installations which are connected to
the Buildings and which are not permanently affixed to the Land, shall remain the Company’s property and shall be taken away by it. 

  

	 	11.2	Vacation of the License Areas and the Date of Vacation constitute fundamental terms and conditions of this Agreement. If any License Areas or any part thereof are not
in good order and condition at the Date of Vacation, excluding reasonable wear and tear, the Kibbutz may, after having given the Company written notice at least 10 days in advance in which the Company fails to repair the damage and/or the fault
and/or the breakdown, repair any damage and/or fault and/or breakdown at the Company’s expense, and the Company shall refund to the Kibbutz any reasonable amount it has incurred for this purpose. 

 

	 	11.3	If the Company has not vacated the License Areas or any part thereof on the Date of Vacation, then without prejudice to alternative and/or additional remedies available
to the Kibbutz according to the provisions of this Agreement and/or according to any law, the Company shall pay the Kibbutz agreed damages to an extent of twice the User Fees specified in this Agreement in respect of each day of default in vacation,
commencing from the Date of Vacation specified in this Agreement and up to the date of actual vacation — without the Kibbutz required to prove damage and/or loss of anticipated profits due to non-vacation of the License Areas on due date. The
aforesaid amount is assessed in advance by the parties, at the time of signing of this Agreement, as being fair and reasonable and fixed compensation in respect of a default in vacating the License Areas. For the removal of doubt it is clarified
that payment of the aforesaid compensation does not and will not constitute consent to an extension of the License Period and/or as permission to the Company being late in vacating the License Areas. 

  
 12 

	12.	Remedies for breaches 

  

	 	12.1	Without derogating from what is contained further on in this clause and from the specific remedies appearing in this Agreement and in addition to the foregoing, the
provisions of the Contracts Law (Remedies for Breach of Contract), 5731-1971 will apply to a breach of this Agreement. 

  

	 	12.2	The parties declare that any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement which is not rectified notwithstanding notice of 30 days calling for the
rectification thereof, will be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement. 

  

	13.	General 

  

	 	13.1	It is hereby expressly declared and agreed that the Company will not be deemed to have breached the Agreement or as being a party who has not fulfilled any of the
conditions hereof, if it is not possible to make use of the License Areas, for the Purpose of the License, as a consequence of “force majeure” over which the Company has no control. “Force majeure” for purposes of
the foregoing shall include, inter alia, natural disasters, weather damage and a state of emergency from the security aspect. 

  

	 	13.2	This Agreement shall be binding on the parties and on their successors-in-title. 

 

	 	13.3	This Agreement is not intended to confer rights on any third parties, except the Kibbutz Individuals, unless otherwise expressly stated. 

 

	 	13.4	This Agreement contains and expresses all the terms and conditions that have been agreed between the parties in connection with the grant to the Company of the license
pursuant to this Agreement. No promises, consents, agreements, undertakings or representations, verbal or in writing, in regard to the subject matter of this Agreement, which were given or made by either of the parties prior to this Agreement being
entered into, will be of no validity, and as from the date of signing of this Agreement will be deemed to be null and void in all respects. 

  

	 	13.5	No alteration, amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be of any validity unless drawn up in writing under the signature of all the parties.

  

	 	13.6	Failure to take action in a case or cases of a breach or breaches will not be deemed to be acquiescence to or a waiver of any of the rights of the parties to this
Agreement, and no like inference shall be drawn therefrom in regard to similar instances or in regard to other instances. 

  

	 	13.7	No waiver, extension of time, indulgence or failure to exercise a right under this Agreement will be of any force and validity, unless drawn up in an express and signed
document, and even in such case shall apply only to the instance specifically mentioned in such document and shall not derogate from other rights of any party pursuant to this Agreement. 

  
 13 

	 	13.8	This Agreement and the performance hereof by the parties shall be determined, interpreted and regulated according to the laws of the State of Israel. The competent
courts in Tel Aviv and they alone will have exclusive jurisdiction in regard to any disputes connected with this Agreement. 

  

	14.	Addresses and notices 

  

	 	    	The address of the parties are as set forth at the head of this Agreement (or any other address that may be given by one of the parties in writing to the other
parties). Any notice sent by any party to another according to the aforesaid addresses shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee: (a) if sent by registered mail — three (3) business days after the day of posting;
(b) if sent by facsimile or by e-mail, one business day after the transmission, provided that the sending party has confirmation of the notice having been transmitted to the addressee.

On June 6, 2007 a capitalized leasehold contract was signed between: 
 Israel Lands Administration (hereinafter: “the Lessor”) 
 And: 

CaesarStone Ltd. Corporation No. 511439507 (hereinafter: “the Lessee”) 
 The following particulars emerge from the Contract: 
  

			
	 Leasehold period:
	  	49 years from February 6, 2005 and until February 5, 2054 with an option to lease for an additional period of 49 years
		
	 Area:
	  	63,680 sq.m. of which 6,820 sq.m. are zoned for an open public area
		
	 Plot:
	  	2000 according to Plan HA/MK/2004/9
		
	 Main area:
	  	50,944 sq.m.
		
	 Service area:
	  	25,472 sq.m.
		
	 File No.:
	  	20908280 A

 The following remarks are recorded in the Contract: 

 

	-	“The leasehold lessee is aware that according to a recommendation of the Ministry of Industry and, Trade to grant an exemption from tender, a minimum
main area for building construction of 6,000 sq.m. built area was fixed for Plot 2000B”. 

  

	-	“The leasehold lessee is aware that the allocation is for purposes of industry only. Any use of the leasehold premises which does not conform with the objective
of the allocation and to what is stated in the Ministry of Industry and Trade recommendation will be deemed to be a material breach of this leasehold contract and will allow for cancellation of the contract and return of the land to the Lands
Administration without any compensation in respect of the investments in the area, unless 8 years have passed from the date of completion of construction of the built area on Plot 2000 B”. 

  
 4 

	-	“The allocation is based on Plan HA/MK/2004/9 which allows for maximum exploitation at a rate of 120% on 4 floors including service areas (80% main area
+ 10% [sic] service areas)”. 

  

	-	This contract cancels a contract dated January 11, 2006 and replaces it”. 

 Factors which affect the appraisal:  
 In coming to estimate the value of the
Property from a willing seller to a willing buyer, I have, inter alia, taken the following factors and considerations into account: 
  

	-	The location of the Property in the Bar-Lev Industrial Park. 

  

	-	The area of the land and the built area have been taken into account. 

  

	-	The standard and quality of the building construction was taken into account. 

 

	-	A factor that has been taken into account is that the Bar-Lev Industrial Park is defined as a national preference region A where the extent of the payment of
capitalized leasehold fees to the Israel Lands Administration is 31% of the value of the land without development. 

  

	-	Costs of development in the region were taken into account. 

  

	-	The value of land which is owned for an open private area was taken at a rate of 10% of the value that is zoned for industry. 

 

	-	The appraisal was made according to the cost approach and at the request of the Kibbutz without the element of the special building construction for the needs of the
Plant, but rather on a basis of standard building costs, and without the element of entrepreneurial profit. 

Calculation:  
  

							
	 Land zoned for industry:
	  	56,860 sq.m. * NIS 60? sq.m. =	  	 	NIS 3,411,600	  
			
	 Land zoned for open public area:
	  	6,820 sq.m. * NIS 6/sq.m. =	  	 	NIS 40,920	  
			
	 Development:
	  	63,680 sq.m. * NIS 180/sq.m. =	  	 	NIS 11,462,400	  
			
	 Buildings construction:
	  	19,387 sq.m. * NIS 1,500/sq.m. =	  	 	NIS 29,080,500	  
			
	 	  	 	  	 	 	 
	 Total
	  		  	 	NIS 43,995,420	  
			
	 And rounded
	  		  	 	NIS 44,000,000	  

  
 5 

 Appraisal:  
 In light of all the foregoing I assess the market value of the Property, from a willing seller to a willing buyer, as at the effective date — July 6, 2010 — on the assumption of standard
building costs and without the element of an entrepreneurial profit, where the Property is free and vacant of any person and object, and free and clear of any debt or encumbrance, and without V.A.T., in a sum of: 

 

	
	  

	
	 NIS 44,000,000
  

	
	 Forty-four million new shekels

 

 I have drawn up this opinion of mine according to the best of my professional knowledge and experience, and I have no
interest or part in the abovementioned Property. 
 In witness whereof I have hereunto signed,
