NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)<br />

Some of the options under the Subsidiary Plan are subject to the terms stipulated by Section 102 of the Israeli<br />

Income Tax Ordinance. Among other things, the Ordinance provides that the subsidiary will be allowed to claim<br />

as an expense for tax purposes the amounts credited to the employees as a benefit, when the related tax is payable<br />

by the employee.<br />

During 2001, the subsidiary granted the said 270,000 options partly at an exercise price per share of NIS 0.01,<br />

and to two employees at an exercise price of $5.55. Through December 31, 2005, 112,101 of these options were<br />

forfeited and 76,023 were regranted.<br />

The compensation (income) expenses attributable to the Subsidiary’s Plan - in accordance with the provisions of<br />

APB 25 - that have been charged against income in the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were $0,<br />

$81,000 and $(63,000), respectively.<br />

On November 23, 2004, the above subsidiary’s board of directors approved an additional employee stock option<br />

plan (“the Subsidiary 2004 Plan”). Pursuant to the Subsidiary 2004 Plan, options to purchase 36,000 ordinary<br />

shares, of NIS 0.01 par value each, were granted on December 31 2004, to certain employees of the subsidiary all<br />

subject to the taxation route for grants under Section 102 of the Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 1961. All<br />

options granted under the Subsidiary 2004 Plan bear an exercise price of $5.55 and vest as follows: 33.33% after<br />

the first year, another 33.33% after the second year and another 33.33% after the third year (in cases where the<br />

optionee is an employee of the Company or its subsidiary - provided that the employee is still employed by the<br />

subsidiary or the Company at the date of vesting). In addition, the options are not exercisable prior to: (1) the<br />

consummation of an IPO of the subsidiary’s securities, (2) a merger of the subsidiary or (3) seven years from the<br />

date of grant.<br />

The fair value of each option grant from the above grants was between $2 and $4 estimated on the date of grant<br />

under the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield<br />

of 0%; expected volatility of 50%; risk free interest rate of 2.25%-3%; and weighted expected life of 3 years.<br />

b. On December 1, 2004, the board of directors of another Subsidiary approved an employee stock option plan (“the<br />

Additional Subsidiary Plan”). Pursuant to the Additional Subsidiary Plan, up to 1,500,000 options to purchase up<br />

to 1,500,000 shares of the Additional Subsidiary, can be granted to its employees, officers and other service<br />

provider providing services to the Company or any affiliate. In addition, the Additional Subsidiary Plan stipulates<br />

that options granted pursuant to it, are not to be exercised prior to: (1) the conversion of the corporate entity of<br />

the Additional Subsidiary from a Limited Liability Company, to a C corporation or (2) the consummation of an<br />

IPO of the Additional Subsidiary’s securities, (3) a merger or a significant change of control in the Additional<br />

Subsidiary or (4) five years from the date of grant.<br />
