In addition, pursuant to Rule 416(c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate number of the Registrant's ordinary shares, par value NIS 1.00 per share (the "Ordinary Shares") that may be offered or issued pursuant to the Registrant's 2011 Israeli Share Award Plan, as amended (formerly known as the 2011 Israeli Share Option Plan) by reason of stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

Issuable under awards that may be granted in the future under the Registrant's 2011 Israeli Share Award Plan (formerly known as the 2011 Israeli Share Option Plan).

(4)
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(h) and (c) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, based on the average of the high and low sale prices (US$6.70 and US$6.50) of the Registrant's Ordinary Shares as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on February 3, 2017.

(5)
Issuable under options previously granted under the Registrant's 2011 Israeli Share Award Plan (formerly known as the 2011 Israeli Share Option Plan).

(6)
Pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in the case of Ordinary Shares purchasable upon exercise of outstanding options, the proposed maximum offering price is the exercise price provided for in the respective option grant.  The exercise prices of options granted under the Registrant's 2011 Israeli Share Award Plan (formerly known as the 2011 Israeli Share Option Plan) are denominated in New Israeli Shekels and for purposes of calculation of the proposed maximum offering price have been converted into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate reported by the Bank of Israel on February 3, 2017, which was NIS 3.76 per US$1.00.
