The record date for determining which holders of the Registrant’s ordinary shares, and which holders of options to purchase ordinary shares, will have their holdings adjusted as a result of the 1-for-10 reverse share split (as described in the Registrant’s Proxy Statement filed with its its Current Report on Form 6-K dated April 28, 2015, or the Proxy Statement) will be the close of business on June 5, 2015. The first date when the Registrant’s ordinary shares will begin trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange after implementation of the reverse share split will be June 7, 2015. The first date when the Registrant’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) will begin trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market after implementation of the reverse share split will be June 8, 2015.
 
The reverse share split will reduce the Registrant’s registered share capital to 75 million shares and the number of outstanding ordinary shares to approximately 53.49 million shares. Fractional shares resulting from the reverse share split will be rounded as described in the Proxy Statement. Proportional adjustments will be made to all of the Registrant’s outstanding convertible securities.
 
Shareholders who hold their ordinary shares in brokerage accounts or street name or holders of options to purchase ordinary shares will not be required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares. Holders of share certificates will be required to send their share certificates to the Company’s registered office for issuance of new post-split share certificates. No action with regard to the reverse share split is required on the part of holders of ADSs or of warrants to purchase ADSs.
