| C. | Ordinary transactions that are not exceptional
The Company’s Board of Directors, following the approval of the Audit Committee, decided that a transaction with related and interested parties will be considered a “negligible transaction” for public reporting purposes if all the following conditions have been met:
| (1) | It is not an “extraordinary transaction” within the meaning thereof in the Companies Law.
| (2) | The effect of each of the parameters listed below is less than one percent (hereinafter – the Negligibility Threshold).
For every transaction or arrangement that is tested for the Negligibility Threshold, the parameters will be examined, to the extent they are relevant, on the basis of the Company's condensed or audited consolidated financial statements, as applicable, prior to the transaction, as detailed below: Acquisition of assets Assets ratio – the value of the assets in the transaction divided by total assets. Sale of assets Assets ratio – the amount of the assets in the transaction divided by total assets in most recent consolidated balance sheet. Profit ratio – the profit or loss from the transaction (in absolute value) divided by the annual average of last twelve quarters profit/ loss (in absolute value). Financial liabilities Liabilities ratio – loan principle divided by the total liabilities in most recent consolidated balance sheet. Financing expenses ratio – the expected financing expenses for the specific loan divided by the gross financing expenses in most recent consolidated P&L statement. Acquisition and sale of products (except fixed assets), services, leases and production inputs Income ratio – estimated income from the transaction divided by the annual average of total income in last twelve quarterly consolidated P&L statements, or Production inputs ratio – the aggregate expenses in the transaction divided by the annual average of total expenses in last twelve quarterly consolidated P&L statements.
| (3) | The transaction is negligible also from a qualitative point of view. For the purpose of this criteria, it shall be examined whether there are special considerations justifying reporting of the transaction, even if it does not meet the quantitative criteria described above.
| (4) | In examining the negligibility of a transaction expected to occur in the future, among other things, the probability of the transaction occurring will be examined.
