Note 15 - Transactions and Balances with Related Parties

On December 30, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the terms of a management services agreement entered into among the Company, Kanir Joint Investments (2005) Limited Partnership (“Kanir”), the one of the Company’s controlling shareholders, and Meisaf Blue & White Holdings Ltd. (“Meisaf”), a company controlled by the Company’s chairman of the board and controlling shareholder, effective as of March 31, 2008 (the “Previous Management Agreement”). The aggregate annual management fee under the Previous Management Agreement, as updated, was $400 thousand.

At the annual shareholders meeting held on August 12, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved, following the approval by the Audit and Compensation Committee and Board of Directors, an Amended and Restated Management Services Agreement, effective July 1, 2021 (the “Management Agreement”), which provides, among other things, for the payment of NIS 1,386 thousand, (approximately €345 thousand) per year to Meisaf in consideration for the services provided by Meisaf, including the service of Mr. Nehama as the Company Chairman of the Board in no less than a 77% position, and the payment of NIS 1,800 million (approximately €449 thousand) per year to Kanir and Keystone R.P. Holdings and Investments Ltd., a private company wholly-owned by Mr. Ran Fridrich (“Keystone”) (in an initial allocation of NIS 0.66 million to Kanir and NIS 1.14 million to Keystone) in consideration for service provided by these entities, including the service of Mr. Fridrich as the Company Chief Executive Officer in a full-time position and as a Board member.

Pursuant to the Management Agreement, Meisaf, Kanir and Keystone, through their employees, officers and directors, will assist the Company in all aspects of the management of the Company and advise as required from time to time by the Company, including provision of Chairman, CEO and Board services as detailed above. The Management Agreement is valid until June 30, 2024 or until its earlier termination in accordance with its terms.

The Company sub-leases a small part of its office space to a company controlled by Mr. Shlomo Nehama, the Company’s chairman of the Board and a controlling shareholder, at a price per square meter based on the price that it pays under its lease agreements. This sub-lease agreement was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The Company employs the son of Mr. Shlomo Nehama as a project manager in connection with the development activities of photovoltaic plants in Texas, USA. The annual cost of employment of Mr. Nehama’s son, for the year ended December 31, 2023, as approved by the Company’s shareholders, is approximately NIS 239 thousand (approximately €60 thousand).
