Agenda Items

The agenda of the special meeting will be to amend the terms of our Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants by extending the expiration date of the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants to October 31, 2017.

We currently are unaware of any other matters that may be raised at the special meeting. Should any other matters be properly raised at the special meeting, the persons designated as proxies shall vote according to their own judgment on those matters.

Board Recommendation

Our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the proposal.

Who Can Vote

Only shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders at the close of business on November 11, 2016, shall be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the special meeting.

How You Can Vote

You can vote your ordinary shares and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants by attending the special meeting. If you do not plan to attend the special meeting, the method of voting will differ for shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants held as a record holder, shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants held in “street name” (through a Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, or TASE, member) and shares underlying ADSs that you hold. Record holders of shares and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants will receive proxy cards. Holders of shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants in “street name” through a TASE member will also vote via a proxy card, but through a different procedure (as described below). Holders of ADSs (whether registered in their name or in “street name”) will receive voting instruction cards in order to instruct their banks, brokers or other nominees on how to vote.

Shareholders/Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant Holders of Record

If you are a shareholder or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holder of record, you can submit your vote by completing, signing and submitting an applicable proxy card, which has been published at www.magna.isa.gov.il and www.maya.tase.co.il and which will be accessible at the “Investor Information” portion of our website, as described below under “Shareholder Meetings”.

Please follow the instructions on the applicable proxy card.

Shareholders/Series 10, 11 and 12 Holders Holding in “Street Name,” Through the TASE

If you hold ordinary shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants in “street name,” that is, through a bank, broker or other nominee that is admitted as a member of the TASE, your shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants will only be voted if you provide instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee as to how to vote, or if you attend the special meeting in person.

If voting by mail, you must sign and date an applicable proxy card in the form filed by us on MAGNA on or around November 2, 2016 and attach to it a certificate signed by the TASE Clearing House member through which the shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants are held, which complies with the Israel Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership for Voting in General Meetings)-2000 as proof of ownership of the shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants, as applicable, on the record date, and return the applicable proxy card, along with the proof of ownership certificate, to us, as described in the instructions available on MAGNA.

If you choose to attend the special meeting (where ballots will be provided), you must bring the proof of ownership certificate from the TASE’s Clearing House member through which the shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants are held, indicating that you were the beneficial owner of the shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants, as applicable, on the record date.

Holders of ADSs

Under the terms of the Deposit Agreement between the Company, The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary, or BNY Mellon, and the holders of our ADSs, BNY Mellon shall endeavor (insofar as is practicable) to vote or cause to be voted the number of shares represented by ADSs in accordance with the instructions provided by the holders of ADSs to BNY Mellon. For ADSs that are held in “street name”, through a bank, broker or other nominee, the voting process will be based on the underlying beneficial holder of the ADSs directing the bank, broker or other nominee to arrange for BNY Mellon to vote the ordinary shares represented by the ADSs in accordance with the beneficial holder’s voting instructions. If no instructions are received by BNY Mellon from any holder of ADSs (whether held directly by a beneficial holder or in “street name”) with respect to any of the shares represented by the ADSs on or before the date established by BNY Mellon for such purpose, BNY Mellon shall not vote or attempt to vote the shares represented by such ADSs.

Multiple Record Holders or Accounts

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this document and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, shareholders who hold ADSs in more than one brokerage account will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which ADSs are held. Shareholders or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders of record whose shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants are registered in more than one name will receive more than one proxy card. You should complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card you receive.

Our board of directors urges you to vote your shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants so that they will be counted at the special meeting or at any postponements or adjournments of the special meeting.

Solicitation of Proxies

By appointing “proxies”, shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders may vote at the special meeting whether or not they attend.  If a properly executed proxy in the attached form is received by us at least 48 hours prior to the special meeting (and received by BNY Mellon no later than the date indicated on the voting instruction card, in the case of ADS holders), all of the shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants represented by the proxy shall be voted as indicated on the form or, if no preference is noted, shall be voted in favor of the matter described above, and in such manner as the holder of the proxy may determine with respect to any other business as may come before the special meeting or any adjournment thereof.  Shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders may revoke their proxies at any time before the deadline for receipt of proxies by filing with us (in the case of holders of ordinary shares or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants) or with BNY Mellon (in the case of holders of ADSs), a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date.

Proxies are being distributed to shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders on or about November 3, 2016. Certain officers, directors, employees, and agents of ours, none of whom will receive additional compensation therefor, may solicit proxies by telephone, emails, or other personal contact. We will bear the cost for the solicitation of the proxies, including postage, printing, and handling, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding material to beneficial owners of shares, ADSs and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants.

To the extent you would like to submit a position statement with respect to the proposal described in this proxy statement pursuant to the Israeli Companies law, 1999, or the Israeli Companies Law, you may do so by delivery of appropriate notice to the our offices (Attention: Chief Financial Officer) located at 10 Bareket Street, Kiryat Matalon, PO Box 7537, Petach Tikva 4951778, Israel, not later than ten days before the special meeting (i.e., November 28, 2016). Response of the Board to the position statement may be submitted not later than five days after the deadline for sending the position statement (i.e., December 2, 2016).

Quorum

At the close of business on November 1, 2016, we had outstanding 27,709,901 ordinary shares. The foregoing number of outstanding ordinary shares excludes 446,827 ordinary shares that are held in treasury and have no voting rights. Each ordinary share (including ordinary shares represented by ADSs) outstanding as of the close of business on the record date are entitled to one vote upon each of the matters to be voted on at the special meeting.

Under our articles of association, the special meeting with respect to the shareholders meeting will be properly convened if at least two shareholders attend the meeting in person or sign and return proxies, provided that they hold shares representing at least 25% of our shareholder voting power. The special meeting with respect to the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders meeting will be properly convened if at least two holders of the respective class attend the meeting in person or sign and return proxies, provided that they hold warrants representing at least 25% of voting power of the respective class. If such quorum is not present within half an hour from the time scheduled for the meeting, the meeting will be adjourned for one week (to the same day, time and place), or to later date if so specified in the notice of the meeting. At the reconvened meeting, if there is no quorum within half an hour from the time scheduled for the meeting, any number of our shareholders or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders, as applicable, present in person or by proxy shall constitute a lawful quorum.

Vote Required for the Proposal

The affirmative vote of the our shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders of at least 75% of the voting power represented at the applicable special meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon (which excludes abstentions) is necessary for the approval of the proposal. Shareholders, ADS holders and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holders will be required to declare concurrent holdings of both shares or ADSs on the one hand and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants, as applicable, on the other. If necessary, results will be calculated on the basis of unmingling of the shares and Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant votes.

If you provide specific instructions (mark boxes) with regard to certain proposals, your shares will be voted as you instruct.

If you are a shareholder or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant holder of record and do not return your proxy card, your shares will not be voted. If you hold shares (or ADSs representing shares) or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants beneficially in street name, your shares will also not be voted at the meeting if you do not return your proxy card or voting instruction card to instruct your broker or the Depositary how to vote. A broker (and BNY Mellon) may only vote in accordance with instructions from a beneficial owner of shares, ADSs or Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our outstanding ordinary shares as of November 1, 2016 by the members of our senior management, and board of directors, individually and as a group, and each person who we know beneficially owns 5% or more of our outstanding ordinary shares. The beneficial ownership of ordinary shares is based on the 27,709,901 ordinary shares outstanding as of November 1, 2016 (which excludes 446,827 ordinary shares held in treasury) and is determined in accordance with the rules of the Commission and generally includes any ordinary shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power.  For purposes of the table below, we deem shares subject to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of November 1, 2016, to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the options or warrants for the purposes of computing the percentage ownership of that person but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE TERMS OF THE SERIES 10, 11 and 12 WARRANTS

Background

As of November 1, 2016, there are outstanding (i) 39,042,000 Series 10 Warrants to purchase 1,561,680 ordinary shares, NIS 0.25 per share exercisable at NIS 9.85 per ordinary share, (ii) 37,372,500 Series 11 Warrants to purchase 1,494,900 ordinary shares, NIS 0.25 per share exercisable at NIS 0.392 per ordinary share, and (iii) 1,470,000 Series 12 Warrants to purchase 1,470,900 ordinary shares, NIS 0.25 per share exercisable at NIS 15.29 per ordinary share.

On October 10, 2016 we filed an application with the Lod District Court in Israel to approve the convening of a Special General Meeting of our Shareholders and a Special General Meeting of our Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrant Holders to approve an extension of the term of the Company’s Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants until October 31, 2017. The Series 10 and 11 Warrants were set to expire on October 31, 2016 and the Series 12 Warrants were set to expire on October 22, 2016. As part of the application, we also requested the Court to extend the term of the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants until December 31, 2016 as temporary relief. On October 13, 2016, the Court approved the extension of the term of the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants until November 8, 2016 and on November 1, 2016 further approved the extension of the term of the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants until December 31, 2016. The application was made in accordance with the provisions of Section 350 of the Israeli Companies Law – 1999.

The amendment to the terms of the Series 10, 11 and 12 Warrants is being made primarily to allow more time for the holders to exercise their warrants with a view to providing us with additional funds if and when such warrants are exercised.

Board Recommendation

Our board of directors recommends a vote FOR the foregoing proposal.

OTHER BUSINESS

Other than as set forth above, as of the mailing of this Proxy Statement, management knows of no business to be transacted at the special meeting, but, if any other matters are properly presented at the special meeting, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote upon such matters in accordance with their best judgment.
