Introduction
|
1.1 |
The objective of this document is to define and describe the Compensation Policy for the Company's officers, including members of the Board of Directors (the "Board"), as required pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law,
5759-1999 (the "Companies Law").
|
1.2 |
It is emphasized that this Compensation Policy does not grant rights to the Company's officers, and the adoption of this Compensation Policy in itself does not grant the right to any officer of the Company to receive any of the
compensation components described in the Compensation Policy, and does not amend existing agreements. The compensation components that each officer will be entitled to receive will be only those that are specifically approved for the
officer by the Company's authorized organs, subject to the provisions of any applicable law.
|
1.3 |
If an officer should receive compensation that is less than the compensation provided in this Compensation Policy, it will not be considered as a deviation or exception from this Compensation Policy, and such officer's terms of
compensation will not require the approval of the Company's shareholders.
|
1.4 |
The Company may elect to appoint an additional Chairman in addition to the position of the current Chairman. In such event, unless specified otherwise in this Compensation Policy, the maximum monthly Base Salary and the maximum
Bonus for each of the co-Chairmen, will not exceed the maximum amounts indicated in this Compensation Policy, for the position of Chairman of the Board. In case of a co-Chairman with a less than 100% full time position, the applicable
maximum monthly Base Salary and the maximum Bonus, will be calculated on a proportionate basis.
|
1.5 |
In the event the controlling shareholder will be appointed to the position of co-Chairman, CEO or an officer of the Company, his or her compensation will be subject to specific approval by the Company's shareholders in accordance
with Israeli law.
|
1.6 |
The convenience translation of New Israeli Shekels (NIS) into U.S. Dollars was made based on the exchange rate of February 6, 2023, at which USD 1.00 equaled NIS 3.474. The USD denominated data is provided solely for convenience
purposes, whereby only the NIS denominated figures are binding.
|
2. |
The Objectives of the Compensation Policy
|
2.1 |
Creating a reasonable and appropriate set of incentives for the Company's officers while taking into consideration, inter alia, the Company's characteristics, business activity, risk management policy and work relations.
|
2.2 |
Providing the tools necessary for recruiting, motivating and retaining talented and skilled officers in the Company, who, in turn, will be able to contribute to the Company and maximize its profits in the long term.
|
2.3 |
Emphasizing performance based on compensation, and tying the officers to the Company and its performance, by matching the officers' compensation to their contribution to achieving the Company's goals and maximizing its profits,
from a long-term point of view and according to their position.
|
2.4 |
Creating a proper balance between the various compensation components (such as fixed versus variable components and short-term versus long-term).
|
2.5 |
Creating a more suitable balance between the different positions in the Company's current management mechanism.
|
2.6 |
The combination of the various compensation components described in this document is intended to create a balance and appropriate ratio, according to Israeli standards, between the fixed compensation and the variable compensation,
so as to create a performance based compensation system that promotes the Company's goals, and corresponds with its risk management policy.
