4. A new Section 2.18 will be added to the Plan as follows:

award, granted to a Participant under the Plan."
5. Section 4.1 of the Plan shall be deleted and replaced in its entirety with

"4.1 Subject to adjustments, as set forth in Section 9 below, the initial
number of Shares reserved for the Option Grant under the Plan shall be
28,000,000 Ordinary A Shares, of US $0.01 par value each (the
"RESERVED SHARES").."
6. A new Section 25 will be added to the Plan as follows:
"25. RESTRICTED SHARES.
The Committee may award Restricted Shares to any eligible Participant,
including under Section 102 of the Income Tax Ordinance (as defined in
Appendix A to the Plan). Each Award of Restricted Shares under the Plan
shall be evidenced by a written agreement between the Company and the
Participant (the "RESTRICTED SHARE AGREEMENT"), in such form as the
Committee shall from time to time approve. The Restricted Share Agreement
shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions,
unless otherwise specifically provided in such Agreement:
25.1 NUMBER AND CLASS OF SHARES. Each Restricted Share Agreement shall
state the number of Shares covered by an Award. It is hereby clarified
that the Restricted Shares shall be the Ordinary A Shares of the
Company.
25.2 PURCHASE PRICE. Each Restricted Share Agreement may state an amount of
purchase price to be paid by the Participant in consideration for the
issuance of the Restricted Shares and the terms of payment thereof,
which may include, payment by issuance of promissory notes or other
evidence of indebtedness on such terms and conditions as determined by
the Committee.
25.3 VESTING. Each Restricted Share Agreement shall provide the vesting
schedule for the Restricted Shares as determined by the Committee,
provided that (to the extent permitted under applicable Law) the
Committee shall have the authority to determine the vesting schedule
and accelerate the vesting of any outstanding Restricted Share at such
time and under such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate. Unless otherwise resolved by the Committee and stated in
the Restricted Share Agreement, Restricted Shares shall vest in the
same vesting schedule as set forth in Section 6 hereof.
25.4 RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, except by
will or the laws of descent and distribution, for such period as the
Committee shall determine from the date on which the Award is granted
(the "RESTRICTED PERIOD"). The Committee may also impose such
additional or alternative restrictions and conditions on the
Restricted Shares, as it deems appropriate, including the satisfaction
of performance criteria. Such performance criteria may include, but
are not limited to, sales, earnings before interest and taxes, return
on investment, earnings per share, any combination of the foregoing or
rate of growth of any of the foregoing, as determined by the
Committee. Certificates for shares issued pursuant to Restricted Share
Awards shall bear an appropriate legend referring to such
restrictions, and any attempt to dispose of any such shares in
contravention of such restrictions shall be null and void and without
effect. Such certificates may, if so determined by the Committee, be
held in escrow by an escrow agent appointed by the Committee, or, if a
Restricted Share Award is made pursuant to Section 102, by the Trustee
(as defined in Appendix A to the Plan). In determining the Restricted
Period of an Award the Committee may provide that the foregoing
restrictions shall lapse with respect to specified percentages of the
awarded Restricted Shares on successive anniversaries of the date of
such Award. To the extent required by the Income Tax Ordinance or the
Income Tax Authorities (as defined in Appendix A to the Plan), the
Restricted Shares issued pursuant to Section 102 shall be issued to
the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax
Ordinance and the Restricted Shares shall be held for the benefit of
the Participant for such period as may be required by the Income Tax
Ordinance.
25.5 ADJUSTMENT OF PERFORMANCE GOALS. The Committee may adjust performance
goals to take into account changes in law and accounting and tax rules
and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or
appropriate to reflect the inclusion or the exclusion of the impact of
extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances. The Committee
also may adjust the performance goals by reducing the amount to be
received by any Participant pursuant to an Award if and to the extent
that the Committee deems it appropriate.
25.6 FORFEITURE. Subject to such exceptions as may be determined by the
Committee, if the Participant's continuous employment with the Group
shall terminate for any reason prior to the expiration of the vesting
date or Restricted Period of an Award or prior to the payment in full
of the purchase price of any Restricted Shares with respect to which
the vesting date or the Restricted Period has expired, any shares
remaining subject to vesting or restrictions or with respect to which
the purchase price has not been paid in full, shall thereupon be
forfeited and shall be deemed transferred to, and reacquired by, or
cancelled by, as the case may be, the Group at no cost to the Group,
subject to all applicable laws. Upon forfeiture of Restricted Shares,
the Participant shall have no further rights with respect to such
Restricted Shares.
25.7 OWNERSHIP. During the Restricted Period the Participant shall possess
all incidents of ownership of such Restricted Shares, subject to
Section 12 and Section 25.4, including the right to receive dividends
with respect to such shares. All distributions, if any, received by a
Participant with respect to Restricted Shares as a result of any stock
split, stock dividend, combination of shares, or other similar
transaction shall be subject to the restrictions applicable to the
original Award.
25.8 Sections 7 and 8 of the Plan shall apply MUTATIS MUTANDIS to the
Restricted Shares"
7. A new Section 26 will be added to the Plan as follows:
"26. RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS.
26.1 A Restricted Share Unit (an "RSU") is an Award covering a number
of Shares that is settled by issuance of those Shares. An RSU may
be awarded to any eligible Participant, including under Section
102. Each grant of RSUs under the Plan shall be evidenced by a
written agreement between the Company and the Participant (the
"RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT"), in such form as the Committee
shall from time to time approve. Such RSUs shall be subject to
all applicable terms of the Plan and may be subject to any other
terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. The provisions of
the various Restricted Share Unit Agreements entered into under
the Plan need not be identical. RSUs may be granted in
consideration of a reduction in the recipient's other
compensation.
26.2 Other than the par value of the Ordinary A Shares of the Company,
no payment of cash shall be required as consideration for RSUs.
RSUs may or may not be subject to vesting. Vesting shall occur,
in full or in installments, upon satisfaction of the conditions
specified in the Restricted Share Unit Agreement.
26.3 Without limitation of Section 12, no voting or dividend rights as
a shareholder shall exist prior to the actual issuance of Shares
in the name of the Participant. Notwithstanding anything else in
this Plan (as may be amended from time to time) to the contrary,
unless otherwise specified by the Committee, each RSU shall be
for a term of seven (7) years. Each Restricted Share Unit
Agreement shall specify its term and any conditions on the time
or times for settlement, and provide for expiration prior to the
end of its term in the event of termination of employment or
service providing to the Company, and may provide for earlier
settlement in the event of the Participant's death, Disability or
other events.
26.4 Settlement of vested RSUs shall be made in the form of Shares.
Distribution to a Participant of an amount (or amounts) from
settlement of vested RSUs can be deferred to a date after
settlement as determined by the Committee. The amount of a
deferred distribution may be increased by an interest factor or
by dividend equivalents. Until the grant of RSUs is settled, the
number of such RSUs shall be subject to adjustment pursuant
hereto.
26.5 Sections 7 and 8 of the Plan shall apply MUTATIS MUTANDIS to
RSUs."

changed or exchanged by declaration of a share split, reverse

Ordinary A Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the
Company from the shareholders, then the number, class and kind of
Shares subject to this Plan or subject to any Options therefore
granted, and the Exercise Prices of the Options, shall be
appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to maintain the
proportionate number of Shares without changing the aggregate
Exercise Prices of the Options (except in case the Exercise Price
is equal to the par value of the shares, in which case the
Exercise Price will be increased respectively). However no
adjustment shall be made by reason of the distribution of
subscription rights on outstanding shares, or conversion of
securities into shares of the Company.

subject to the relevant Participant's agreement to sign any
document he/she is required to sign pursuant to the

of the Company, or upon a reorganization separation or the

Shares would be deliverable upon exercise, such fraction shall be
rounded up or down, to the nearest whole number. Half of a Share
will be rounded up.
11.7 Each Option granted under this Plan shall be exercisable during
the Exercise Period. Subject to adjustments, as set forth in
Section 9 above, the exercise of one Option shall entitle the
Participant to hold one Share.
11.8 Without derogating from any restrictions mentioned hereinabove,
the exercise of the Options (including the Shares themselves) is
subject to the following terms, restrictions and conditions as may
be in effect at the time the exercise of the Options is requested:

set by any stock exchange in which the Company's securities may be
traded (e.g., blackout periods, and lock up after an IPO); and

shares of the Company, including limitations set forth by

Termination Date of a certain Participant and during the period
that the vested Options are exercisable, the Company shall be
entitled (subject to the provisions of applicable law) to purchase
the vested Options held by such Participant by sending the
Participant a purchase notice (the "PURCHASE NOTICE"). The
purchase price of each Option shall be the Market Value of an
Ordinary A Share less the Exercise Price of the Option. The Market
Value of an Ordinary A Share shall be determined as follows: (i)
in case the Company's shares are listed on a stock exchange, the
Market Value shall be the average price of the Shares during 5
days prior to the Purchase Notice; or (ii) in case the Company's
shares are not traded, the Market Value shall be the value
determined in good faith unanimously by the Board and in the event
the Board members are unable to reach an agreement with respect to
the Market Value within 10 days of the Purchase Notice to the
Participant, the Board will refer to an external expert. The
Committee or the Board shall be entitled to establish further
processes for the purchase of the Options as set forth above,
provided, however, that if the Company receives the Participant's
Exercise Notice prior to the receipt of the Purchase Notice from
the Company, then the Company's right to purchase the said Options
shall become null and void and the Participant may exercise the
vested Options pursuant to their terms.

60 days following the Employment Termination Date, at a price per
Option Share equal to the Exercise Price paid for each Option
Share by the Participant. During the sixty (60) days period, the
Participant shall not sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose
of any Option Shares.
