5.			Annual Bonus - The Executive will be entitled to an annual cash bonus within a sliding range of 50% and 150% of Executive’s Annual Salary based on the following principles: (i) at the low end of the range, 50% of Executive’s Annual Salary for achieving such minimum percentage threshold of the Company goals for a specific calendar year as so set forth by the Board that would entitle him to a minimum cash bonus in respect of Company performance under the Company’s compensation policy, increasing to (ii) 100% of Executive's Annual Salary for achieving 100% of the Company goals for a specific calendar year as so set forth by the Board, and with (iii) up to an additional 50% of Executive's Annual Salary (i.e., above the 100% thereof specified in the immediately preceding sub-clause (ii)), which additional amount would be for various degrees of overachievement of Company goals, in the Board’s discretion, and in accordance with any threshold set forth in the Company’s compensation policy. The annual bonus is based on Company targets and goals (financial, operational, and/or strategic goals) set forth in an annual bonus plan that shall be recommended by the compensation committee of the Board and approved by the Board per each calendar year. Both the targets and goals (that may include, profits, cash flow goals, gross margins, product introduction, year-over-year revenue growth, profitability improvement, etc.) and the degree of achievement of such targets and goals shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, and shall be conclusively binding on the parties. The provisions of this clause shall not be interpreted in any manner whatsoever as binding the Company to provide Executive such a bonus or right, unless Executive achieved the targets and goals set out in the plan as determined by the Board.

APPENDIX A - RSUs and Special Upside Grant


I.			Annual Equity Grants

Effective as of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Executive shall be entitled to annual grants of equity-based awards under the Company’s equity incentive plan, with an aggregate target value of US$2,400,000, allocated as follows:

A. Performance-Based Vesting Restricted Share Units (PSUs)

The Executive shall be entitled to an annual grant of PSUs (each of which may be settled for one underlying ordinary share, par value NIS 0.01, of the Company (“ordinary share”)) with a grant-date target value of US$1,200,000 (based on the then-current value of the ordinary shares, measured in accordance with the Company’s customary practices). The PSUs shall be granted to the Executive on the Second Amendment Effective Date, and on each anniversary of that date thereafter. The vesting and settlement of the PSUs shall be contingent upon the growth of the Company’s TSR (as defined below), relative to the TSR of the exchange-listed stock of the peer group of companies constituted by the S&P Small Cap 600 index of companies (the “S&P 600”), measured over a three-year performance period (each, a “Measurement Period”). For the initial grant of PSUs following the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Measurement Period shall begin on January 1, 2025.

For purposes of the PSUs, the “TSR” (of the ordinary shares, and the exchange-listed stock of the S&P 600 company, respectively) shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

TSR= (i) (A) Average closing price of the ordinary shares or exchange-listed stock of the relevant S&P 600 company for the last 20 trading days of the Measurement Period, minus (B) the average closing price of the ordinary shares/ stock of the relevant S&P 600 company for the initial 20 trading days of the Measurement Period, plus (ii) any reinvested dividends* with respect to the ordinary shares/ stock of the relevant S&P 600 company, as applicable, over the course of the Measurement Period, divided by (iii) the average closing price of the ordinary shares/ stock of the relevant S&P 600 company for the initial 20 trading days of the Measurement Period.

*Note: Any dividends declared on the ordinary shares/ stock of the relevant S&P 600 company during the Measurement Period shall be automatically deemed “reinvested” for purposes of the TSR calculation.

At the conclusion of the third/final fiscal year of each Measurement Period (the “Measurement Date”)), the PSUs will vest and settle for the Executive in proportion to the relative achievement of the TSR of the ordinary shares over the three-year Measurement Period compared to the TSR of the companies constituting the S&P 600 companies over that same Measurement Period, as follows:


Performance Level of TSR of Ordinary Shares*	Relative Percentile Rank of TSR of Ordinary Shares Compared to TSR of Exchange-Listed Stock of S&P 600 Companies Over Measurement Period	Payout Percentage (of Target Number of PSUs)
Maximum	75th percentile or above	200%
Target	55th percentile	100%
Threshold	30th percentile	50%
Below Threshold	Below 30th percentile	0%

Straight line interpolation shall apply to percentile ranks in between performance levels, with a proportionate payout percentage, beginning with the “Threshold” performance level or above.

Notwithstanding the US$1,200,000 target value for each annual grant of PSUs, the number of PSUs granted to the Executive for any particular year (assuming a “Target” performance level of the TSR of the ordinary shares, yielding a 100% payout percentage) shall not exceed 0.50% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares at the time of grant.

Executive’s right to receive the ordinary shares underlying the PSUs is conditioned on his continuous employment as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (unless his employment is terminated due to the occurrence of a Double Trigger, as defined immediately below) through the vesting of the PSUs. Upon the occurrence of a Double Trigger (as defined below), the vesting of all unvested PSUs theretofore granted to the Executive (and not previously cancelled) will accelerate at a “Target” performance level, yielding a 100% payout percentage.

“Double Trigger” means (i) the consummation by the Company of a merger, consolidation, share purchase or similar corporate transaction as a result of which at its closing shares of the Company are issued or exchanged, or converted into cash, securities or other property of another corporate entity, such that persons (in the case of a merger, consolidation or similar corporate transaction) or a person or a group of persons acting in concert (in the case of a share purchase) who held less than the majority of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares immediately prior to said transaction hold a majority of the issued and outstanding shares in the Company as a result of said transaction, (ii) the consummation by the Company of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another entity which is not controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Company (the “Successor Entity”), or (iii) individuals who then constitute the Company’s incumbent board of directors (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”); provided, however, that any individual becoming a director whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Incumbent Board (each of sub-clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Change of Control Trigger”), and, following such Change of Control Trigger, there is a second trigger event, being any of the following: (a) with respect to a Change of Control Trigger under clauses (i) or (iii), Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or Executive resigns from the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) within 12 months of closing of said transaction or such change in the composition of the Board, as applicable; or (b) with respect to a Change of Control Trigger under clause (ii), (A) prior to the closing of said sale, either (y) the Successor Entity does not offer Executive continued employment with the Successor Entity on terms no less favorable for Executive than those offered to Executive under this Agreement, or (z) Executive does not agree to continued employment with the Successor Entity, or (B) if the Successor Entity and Executive agree to Executive’s continued employment with the Successor Entity following the closing of such sale and, within 12 months of closing of said sale, either Executive’s employment is terminated by the Successor Entity without Cause or Executive resign from the Successor Entity for Good Reason.

“Good Reason” means the occurrence, without Executive’s consent, of: (i) a material reduction in Executive’s compensation terms, taken as a whole; (ii) a material reduction in the scope of Executive’s authorities and responsibilities under this Agreement; (iii) a change in Executive’s position from CEO (or equivalent title) to a lesser position; (iv) a requirement to relocate outside Israel, or (v) any circumstances which under applicable law would allow an employee to terminate employment with such termination being treated as termination by employer, after which, in any case, Executive has given notice of Executive’s voluntary termination of his employment with the Company for Good Reason no later than 90 days after the occurrence of such material reduction during which the Company shall be entitled to retract

the decision that caused such material reduction in compensation terms or scope of authorities and responsibilities. In this paragraph, reference to the Company shall mean a Successor Entity, as the case may be.

B. Time-Based Vesting Restricted Share Units (RSUs)

The Executive shall be entitled to an annual grant of RSUs (each of which may be settled for one underlying ordinary share) with a grant-date value of US$1,200,000 (based on the then-current value of the ordinary shares, measured in accordance with the Company’s customary practices). The RSUs shall be granted to the Executive on the Second Amendment Effective Date, and on each anniversary of that date thereafter. Each grant of RSUs shall vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the grant vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and an additional 6.25% of the grant vesting each quarter thereafter.

Notwithstanding the intended US$1,200,000 value for each annual grant of RSUs, the number of RSUs granted to the Executive for any particular year shall not exceed 0.50% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares at the time of grant.

Executive’s right to receive the ordinary shares underlying the RSUs is conditioned on his continuous employment as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (unless his employment is terminated due to the occurrence of a Double Trigger (as defined above in this Appendix A)) through the relevant vesting date for the RSUs. Upon the occurrence of a Double Trigger, the vesting of all unvested RSUs theretofore granted to the Executive (and not previously cancelled) will accelerate.
