biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of recombinant
therapeutic proteins expressed through its proprietary plant cell based expression system, today
announced that the Company&#146;s common stock has been approved for listing on the Tel Aviv Stock
Exchange in addition to its current listing on the NYSE Amex. Trading of the Company&#146;s common
stock on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange will commence on September&nbsp;6, 2010. The Company also announced
today that, based upon the Company&#146;s current market capitalization, it expects its common stock to

2010.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;We decided to have our common stock listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, in addition to the
current listing on the NYSE Amex, after experiencing significant interest regarding our company
from Israeli investors. We believe that the dual listing will result in a larger, more diverse
group of investors in our shares,&#148; said <B>David Aviezer</B>, Ph.D., Protalix&#146;s President and Chief
Executive Officer. &#147;We expect that the listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange will result in
increased investor interest in our shares without affecting the rules and regulations of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission and the NYSE Amex to which we are currently subject.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;We are very pleased to welcome Protalix to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange,&#148; said <B>Ester Levanon</B>, CEO
of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. &#147;The TASE is home to Israel&#146;s most innovative companies among them
over 50 biotechnology companies and 51 dual-listed companies. The listing of Protalix, a leading
company in the biotechnology sector, reflects the international leading position of the Tel Aviv
Stock Exchange in the Hi-Tech and biotech industries&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company will continue to be subject to the rules and regulations of the NYSE Amex and the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission. Dual listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange is allowed under
Israeli law without any additional regulatory requirements for companies whose shares are listed on
certain exchanges outside of Israel, including the NYSE Amex.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange occurs Sunday through Thursday from 9:45 am to 4:30 pm
Israel time, except on trading holidays recognized by the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. The TASE
Clearing House is electronically linked to the Depository Trust Company, a subsidiary of the
Depository Trust &#038; Clearing Corporation, to automate the cross-border settlement of shares listed
on both the TASE and a U.S. stock exchange.
