powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Company; (c) all debts, liabilities and duties of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the Surviving Company; and (d) all

duly elected and qualified, as the case may be.

(i) Company Shares. Each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically
be acquired by the Parent in consideration of the issuance by Parent of the Merger Consideration, without interest and less applicable Taxes required to be withheld, in each case in the manner provided in Section 2.8 and Section 2.15 (or in

Effective Time to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in this Section 2.7 shall be automatically registered in the name of the Parent, and the holders of certificate or certificates (the “Certificates”)
or book-entry shares (“Book-Entry Shares” or “Uncertificated Shares”), which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such Company Shares, shall cease to
have any rights with respect to such Company Shares other than the right to receive, upon surrender of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares in accordance with Section 2.8, the Merger Consideration. No
certificate or scrip representing fractional Parent Common Shares shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or with respect to Book-Entry Shares, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to
vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Parent.

and the Company Plan itself (other than the Section 102 of the Ordinance related provision), shall be assumed by the Parent in accordance with Section 5.7.
(iii) Share Capital of Merger Sub. By virtue of the Merger, the one ordinary share, nominal value NIS 1.00 per share, of
Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and shall have no further effect.
(iv) Parent Common Share. Each Parent Company Share held by any direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company,

respect thereto.
(b) Adjustment to Merger Consideration.
(i) Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the Company

reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or exchange or other like change, then (without limiting any other rights of Parent or Merger Sub hereunder), the Merger Consideration shall be ratably adjusted to reflect fully the effect of
any such change.
(ii) Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the Merger Consideration shall automatically be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any
stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities of a Subsidiary of Parent or of securities convertible into Parent Common Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification,
combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to the Parent Common Shares.

Parent shall cause the Exchange Fund Agent to make, and the Exchange Fund Agent shall make, payments of the Merger Consideration and any amounts payable in respect of dividends or distributions on Parent Common
Shares in accordance with Section 2.13 out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger. In the event the Exchange Fund shall at any time be insufficient to make the payments contemplated
by Article II, Parent shall promptly deposit, or cause to be deposited, additional Parent Common Shares with the Exchange Fund Agent in an amount which is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payments. The
Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.
(c) Payment Procedures With Respect to Company Shares.
(i) Promptly following the Effective Time, Parent and the Surviving Company shall cause the Exchange Fund Agent to mail to each holder of record, as of immediately
prior to the Effective Time, of (x) a Certificate or Certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Shares and (y) Uncertificated Shares, in each case whose shares were acquired by Parent and represent
the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(i), (A) a letter of transmittal in such form as the Company and Parent may reasonably agree (a “Letter of Transmittal”),
which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to such Company Shares shall pass, only upon (1) delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.12) to the
Exchange Fund Agent, or (2) an acknowledgment of the conversion of such holder’s Uncertificated Shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration to the Exchange Fund Agent, (B) a declaration in which the beneficial owner of Company
Shares provides certain information necessary for Parent to determine whether any amounts need to be withheld from the Merger Consideration payable to such beneficial owner pursuant to the terms of the Ordinance (in each case, subject to the
provisions of this Section 2.8, Section 2.15 and Section 5.9), the Code, or any applicable provision of state, local, Israeli, U.S. or other Tax Law; and (C) instructions for use in effecting the
surrender of the Certificates and/or Book-Entry Shares or acknowledging the conversion of the Uncertificated Shares into the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article II
including, in the case of the Uncertificated Shares, instructions for identifying the deposit account through which such Uncertificated Shares are held. Upon delivery to the Exchange Fund Agent of the Letter of Transmittal and the declaration
for Tax withholding purposes or a Valid Tax Certificate (and such other documents, if any, as the Exchange Fund Agent may reasonably request consistent with customary practice), duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the
instructions thereto (and if applicable, deliver to Exchange Fund Agent the Withholding Amount), and, if applicable, surrender of Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 2.12) for cancellation
to the Exchange Fund Agent, the holders of such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor that number of whole Parent Common Shares representing the Merger Consideration to which the
holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(i), and any dividends or other distributions to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.13. Parent shall cause the Exchange Fund Agent to
accept such Certificates or acknowledgments of the conversion of the Uncertificated Shares upon compliance with the foregoing exchange procedures.
(ii) Until surrendered, in the case of a Certificate, or paid, in the case of a Book-Entry Share, in each case, as contemplated by this Section 2.8(c),
each Certificate or Book-Entry Share shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.8(c). The Exchange Fund Agent shall
accept such Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) and make such deliveries with respect to Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with such reasonable terms and conditions as the Exchange Fund Agent may impose to effect an orderly
exchange thereof in accordance with normal exchange practices. No interest shall be paid or accrued for the benefit of holders of the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares on the Merger Consideration payable hereunder. Parent shall cause the
Exchange Fund Agent to accept such Certificates and transferred Book-Entry Shares upon compliance with the foregoing exchange procedures.
(d) Transfers of Ownership. In the event that a transfer of ownership of Company Shares is not registered in the share
transfer books or ledger of the Company, or if the Merger Consideration is to be paid in a name other than that in which the Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor or applicable Uncertificated Shares are registered in the share transfer
books or ledger of the Company, the Merger Consideration may be paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificates so surrendered or applicable Uncertificated Shares are registered in the share transfer books or ledger of the
Company only if such Certificate is properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for surrender and transfer or if the appropriate acknowledgment for the conversion of such Uncertificated Shares into the right to receive the Merger
Consideration has been delivered and the Person requesting such payment has paid any Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Uncertificated Shares,
or established to the reasonable satisfaction of Parent that such Taxes have been paid or are otherwise not payable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.8(d), each Company Share shall be deemed at any time after
the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Section 2.8.

delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any Merger Consideration remaining unclaimed by holders of any such shares immediately prior to the time at which such amounts would
otherwise escheat to, or become property of, any Governmental Entity shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Company, free and clear of any claims or interest of any such holders or their
successors, assigns or personal representatives previously entitled thereto.
2.10 Distribution of Exchange Fund to Parent. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the
former holders of the Company Shares on the date that is six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any former holders of Company Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger who
have not theretofore exchanged their Certificates representing such Company Shares or delivered to the Exchange Fund Agent the acknowledgment of the conversion of their Uncertificated Shares for exchange for the Merger Consideration pursuant to
the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall thereafter look only to Parent, as general creditors thereof, for any payment of and claim with respect thereto. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered or Uncertificated Share not
paid, in each case, in accordance with Section 2.8(c)(i), immediately prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property
of any Governmental Entity, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of Parent free and clear of all claims or interest of any
Person previously entitled thereto.
2.11 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Shares. From and after the Effective Time, all issued and outstanding
Company Shares shall automatically be acquired by the Parent and registered in the name of the Parent, and each holder of a Certificate or Uncertificated Share theretofore representing any Company Shares shall cease to have any rights with
respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable therefor upon the surrender or acknowledgment of the conversion thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8. The Merger Consideration
paid in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Shares. If, after the Effective Time, for any reason (a) Certificates are presented to
the Surviving Company, or (b) acknowledgments are delivered to the Exchange Fund Agent of the conversion of any Uncertificated Shares, such Certificates or Uncertificated Shares, as the case may be, shall be deemed acquired by the Parent and
the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration, in each case as provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II.
2.12 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon
the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Exchange Fund Agent or Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as the
Exchange Fund Agent or Parent may require, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Parent with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Fund Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the
Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Article II.
2.13 Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Parent Common Shares. No dividends or other distributions with
respect to Parent Common Shares with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Uncertificated Shares for which the applicable acknowledgment has not been delivered to the Exchange
Fund Agent with respect to the Parent Common Shares that the holder thereof is entitled to receive upon the surrender or acknowledgment of the conversion thereof, as applicable, in each case until the holder of such Certificate shall have
surrendered such Certificate or the holder of such Uncertificated Shares shall have delivered such acknowledgment of the conversion of such Uncertificated Shares, in each case in accordance with this Article II. Following the surrender
of any Certificate or acknowledgment of the conversion of any Uncertificated Shares, there shall be paid to the holder of the Parent Common Shares issued in exchange therefor, without interest, in accordance with the procedures set forth in
this Article II (a) at the time of such surrender or acknowledgment, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such Parent Common Shares, and (b) at the
appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender or acknowledgment and a payment date subsequent to such surrender or acknowledgment payable with
respect to such Parent Common Shares. For purposes of dividends or other distributions in respect of Parent Common Shares, all Parent Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be entitled to dividends pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence as if issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.
2.14 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is

(a) Without derogating from the provisions of Section 2.8(c)(i) and in addition thereto, the Merger Consideration issuable to each Company Shareholder shall be
delivered to each such Company Shareholder only following: (i) the issuance by the ITA of the 104H Tax Ruling (and if such ruling requires the affirmative consent of such Company Shareholder, such holder consented in writing to join such
ruling); or (ii) delivery by such Company Shareholder to Parent and Exchange Fund Agent of a Valid Tax Certificate, and if such Valid Tax Certificate does not provide for full exemption from withholding of Israeli Tax or clarifies that no such
obligation exists, delivery by such Company Shareholder of immediately available funds in an amount sufficient in order to fulfil any such withholding Tax liability and any other Tax withholding liability that may apply under any provision of
applicable Tax Law (the “Withholding Amount”).
(b) With respect to withholding of Israeli Tax, in the event any Company Shareholder provides the Parent or Exchange Fund Agent with a Valid Tax Certificate at
least five (5) Business Days prior to delivery of the Merger Consideration, then the withholding of any amounts under the Ordinance or any other provision of Israeli Law or requirement, if any, from the Merger Consideration deliverable to such
Company Shareholder shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Valid Tax Certificate (subject, if applicable to delivery by such Company Shareholder of the Withholding Amount(. The Withholding Amount so collected shall be
paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity prior to the last day on which such payment is required to be paid to such Governmental Entity.
(c) With respect to Israeli Taxes, in the event that the 104H Tax Ruling shall not be obtained for any reason whatsoever, the Merger Consideration deliverable to
each Company Shareholder shall be retained by the Exchange Fund Agent for the benefit of each such Company Shareholder for a period of up to 180 days from Closing (the “Withholding Drop Date”) (during
which time the Merger Consideration shall not be delivered and no withholding for Israeli Taxes therefrom shall be made, except as provided below and during which time each Company Shareholder may obtain a Valid Tax Certificate). If a Company
Shareholder delivers, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a Valid Tax Certificate to the Exchange Fund Agent, then the Exchange Fund Agent shall act in accordance with such Valid Tax Certificate, subject to
delivery by such Company Shareholder concurrently with such certificate of the Withholding Amount, if and to the extent required under such Valid Tax Certificate (such Withholding Amount to be increased by interest plus linkage differences, as
defined in Section 159A(a) of the Ordinance, for the period between the 15th day of the calendar month following the month during which the Closing occurs and the time that the Merger Consideration is delivered, as determined by Parent and the
Exchange Fund Agent. If any Company Shareholder does not provide the Exchange Fund Agent with a Valid Tax Certificate by no later than five Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date or provides by such date with a Valid Tax Certificate
that is not providing for full exemption from withholding of Israeli Tax or clarifying that no such obligation exists, and fails to deliver the applicable Withholding Amount by such date, then the provisions of Section 2.10 shall apply, mutatis mutandis.

Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity so as to enable the consummation of the Merger as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Termination Date.
5.7 Company Options
(a) Exchange of Company Options. At the Effective Time, each Company Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective
Time (each, an “Exchanged Option”), whether or not vested, shall by virtue of the Merger be assumed by the Parent and exchanged into an option to purchase, and will be solely exercisable (or will become
exercisable in accordance with its terms) for, one Parent Common Share. Each Company Option so assumed by the Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such options immediately prior
to the Effective Time, including the same exercise price, vesting provisions, termination date, any repurchase rights and provisions regarding the acceleration of vesting on certain transactions.
(b) The Parent shall take all corporate actions necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of Parent Common Shares for delivery upon exercise of all
Company Options pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 5.7.
(c) Treatment of Company Plan. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company and Parent shall
adopt any resolutions and take any actions that are necessary for Parent to assume the Company Plan itself (other than the Section 102 of the Ordinance related provisions), as of the Effective Time.
(d) Necessary Actions; Form S-8. The Company shall take all actions reasonably necessary to effect the transactions
contemplated by this Section 5.7 under all Company Plans, including delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary consents, and making any determinations and/or resolutions of the Company Board or a committee
thereof. Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or other appropriate form) relating to the Parent Common Shares issuable with respect to, or underlying, the Exchanged
Options under this Section 5.7 that are not already subject to a registration statement on Form S-8 (or other appropriate form).
5.8 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance
(a) For a period beginning at the Effective Time and ending no earlier than seven years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Company and Parent shall indemnify
and hold harmless all past and present directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) to the same extent such Persons are indemnified as of the date of
this Agreement by the Company pursuant to Applicable Law, the Charter Documents of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and the indemnification agreements, and, solely in the case of the Surviving Company (and not Parent), any other indemnification
agreements, if any, in existence on the Effective Time (collectively, the “Indemnification Agreements”) arising out of acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby), in each case, to the extent permitted by
Applicable Law. The Surviving Company and Parent shall advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred in the defense of any Legal Proceeding with respect to the matters subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section
5.8 in accordance with the procedures (if any) set forth in the Charter Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any Indemnification Agreements and any other requirements under Applicable Law, in each case, to the extent
permitted by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Legal Proceeding (whether arising before, at or after the Effective Time) is made against such persons with respect to matters subject to indemnification
hereunder on or prior to the seventh anniversary of the Effective Time, the provisions of this Section 5.8(a) shall continue in effect until the final disposition or final resolution of such Legal Proceeding. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section 5.8(a) or otherwise, Parent and the Surviving Company (i) shall not be liable for any settlement effected without their prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed), and (ii) shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Covered Person if it is ultimately decided in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such indemnification is prohibited by
Applicable Law, in which case the Covered Person shall promptly refund to Parent or the Surviving Company the amount of all such expenses theretofore advanced pursuant hereto.
(b) For a period of seven (7) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to, maintain in effect in its
Charter Documents provisions relating to exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses in favor of Covered Persons that are no less favorable than the provisions of the Charter Documents of the Company and any Subsidiary in effect
immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time, in each case, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law.
(c) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company may, or, if the Company is unable to, Parent shall cause the Surviving Company as of or after the Effective Time to,
purchase a seven (7)-year prepaid “tail” policy or enter into similar arrangement, that provides coverage with respect to matters arising on or before the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions or
actions contemplated by this Agreement) (the “D&O Insurance”), with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the coverage provided under
the Company’s existing policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary liability insurance. If prepaid policies have been obtained prior to the Effective Time providing the level of insurance coverage as described in the
preceding sentence, the Surviving Company shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Company to maintain such policy in full force and effect, and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored, in each case, to the extent required by this
Agreement.
(d) The obligations under this Section 5.8 shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to the Covered Persons (and their
respective successors and assigns), it being expressly agreed that the Covered Persons (including successors and assigns) shall be third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, this Section 5.8.
5.9 Tax Ruling. As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with
the ITA an application for a ruling (or an interim ruling) for permitting Company Shareholders who are part of the “Interested Public” under such ruling (i.e., a Company Shareholder who purchased all of his/her/its Company Shares in the
ordinary course trading on NASDAQ and satisfies all the conditions stated in such ruling) (the “Interested Public”) to defer any applicable Israeli tax with respect to the Merger Consideration that such
Interested Public will receive pursuant to this Agreement (i.e., the exchange of the Company Shares for Parent Common Shares) until the sale, transfer or other conveyance for cash of such Common Shares comprising the Merger Consideration by
such Interested Public or such other date set forth in Section 104H of the Israeli Tax Ordinance, and exempting Parent, the Exchange Fund Agent, the Surviving Company and their respective agents from any obligation to withhold Israeli Tax from
the Merger Consideration, or clarifying that no such obligation exists(the “104H Tax Ruling”).
5.10 Stock Exchange Delisting(a). Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall use
reasonable best efforts to facilitate, in accordance with Applicable Laws and rules and policies of the Nasdaq, the delisting by the Surviving Company of the Company Shares from the Nasdaq, and the deregistration of the Company Shares under the
Exchange Act, in each case, as of the Effective Time or as promptly as practicable thereafter.
