Immediate report Class Action [the original report]

On July 6, 2014, the Company received a class action together with a certification motion that had been filed with the Haifa District Court against the Company. According to the plaintiff, who is a customer of the Company's internet services, the Company does not allow existing customers to connect to its Internet infrastructure at the same rates it offers to new customers for the same service. The plaintiff estimated the entire claim amount at up to NIS 144 million (based on personal damages of up to NIS 10 per month, calculated according to the difference between the price per existing customer and the price per new customer multiplied by the Company's 1.2 million existing customers over the course of one year). The Company is studying the claim and is unable, at the present stage, to evaluate the claim's likelihood of success.
