Update on Employee Retention Plan

On July 22, 2012, the Board of Directors approved, following approvals of the Compensation and Audit Committees, the previously announced grants of options to the Company's employees to purchase 2,995,150 ordinary shares of the Company, representing, as of July 20, 2012, approximately 9.4% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of the Company on a post-issuance basis.

The stock options were granted under the Company's equity incentive plan, and have an exercise price equal to the closing price preceding the date of grant by the Board of Directors, i.e., an exercise price of $0.23 per share.

The stock options granted are exercisable for seven years following the date of grant and are subject to a two-year vesting period, with 12.5% of vesting each quarter. The grants of stock options to vice presidents of the Company would be subject to acceleration of 50% of his or her unvested options at that time if (i) the Company undergoes a change of control and (ii) he or she is terminated within six (6) months thereafter.

Mr. Tamir, the President and a director of the Company, and Mr. Paneth, the CEO and a director of the Company, were not granted with any stock options.
