  • D. Mr. Maman has extensive relevant experience for the company's business, accumulated during his tenure in senior roles in companies in the USA, and considering the employment alternatives available to him, the proposed terms of oce are reasonable and proper.
  • E. The compensation terms are intended to serve the best interest of the company and, among other things, to maximize its prots.
  • F. According to a comparative survey presented to the members of the Compensation Committee and the company's Board of Directors, and in comparison to compensation granted to CEOs in comparative public companies with a similar nature and scope of operations as the company, it was found that the proposed compensation is reasonable and customary under the circumstances, considering the company's characteristics, its size, and eld of activity, and taking into account Mr. Maman's role and areas of responsibility.

  • L. The combination of regular terms of oce, an annual bonus derived from the company's ongoing performance, and stock-based compensation, and the respective share of each of these components in the compensation package, creates a compensation mix intended to provide appropriate incentives to encourage maximizing the company's prots and promoting its long-term business results, while avoiding taking undesired risks.
