The Company's BOD believes, after examining the effect of the distribution on: The financial condition of the Company; Its expected cash flow; Its capital structure; The state of the Company's liquidity and compliance with existing financial criteria, that there is nothing in the making of the distribution to adversely affect the Company.
It should be noted that the BOD's resolution is based, inter alia, on the distribution of dividends from the subsidiaries to the Company
In accordance with the aforesaid, the BOD has determined that the distribution is in accordance with the distribution tests set forth in the Companies Law, and in the opinion of the Company's BOD, the distribution of the dividend does not have a negative effect on the Company's financial position.
