Since June 26, 2003 until January 8, 2015, Mr. Cukierman served as Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors and was also a co-manager of the Catalyst Fund, a shareholder of the Company. For its services, Cukierman & Co. was paid a monthly sum of $ 10 plus VAT (except from February 9, 2009 until December 31, 2010, during which period Cukierman & Co. agreed to temporarily reduce such fee to $8.5), in addition to a success fee of 4%-6% for a consummated private placement. The Service Agreement, as supplemented, provided for success fees in connection with securing M&A transactions of 3.5% of the proceeds exchanged in such a transaction and also for a success fee of 6% of the revenues actually received by the Company in respect of a sale of the Company's products to a new customer which was introduced by Cukierman & Co. According to its terms, the Company may terminate the Service Agreement at any time, by giving a one-month prior written notice.

Pursuant to an amendment to the Service Agreement, as of July 1, 2012, the private placement portion of Cukierman & Co’s services was discontinued, and the monthly payment was reduced to approximately $ 6.4 plus VAT, reflecting payment for the business development and mergers and acquisitions services only.

In addition, the payment will be made once a year at the end of each calendar year by way of issuance of the Company's Ordinary shares and not in cash, using a price per share as stipulated in the revised Service Agreement.

On July 15, 2013, an additional amendment to the Service Agreement was signed by which all payments to Cukierman & Co. will be made on a quarterly basis.
