PROXY STATEMENT
 

 
INTRODUCTION
 
This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy are made available by Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), to the holders of record of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, (the "Common Stock"), commencing on or about September 9, 2015. The accompanying proxy is being solicited by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), for use at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the "Meeting"), to be held on the 26th day of October 2015 at 5:00 p.m. local time, at our offices, 27 Hametzuda St., Azur, Israel 58001 and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. The Company may engage a broker or similar person to assist in the solicitation of proxies and provide related advice and informational support for a service fee, plus customary disbursements. Directors, officers and employees of the Company may also assist in the solicitation of proxies by mail, telephone, telefax, in person or otherwise, without additional compensation. Brokers, custodians and fiduciaries will be requested to forward proxy soliciting materials to the owners of stock held in their names and the Company will reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of such proxy materials.
 
The Board has fixed September 9, 2015 as the record date for the Meeting (the "Record Date"). Only stockholders of record on the Record Date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. On September 9, 2015, there were issued and outstanding 5,865,221 shares of Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share.
 
The Company’s Bylaws, as amended, provide that a quorum shall consist of the holders of at least a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting. If such quorum shall not be present or represented, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall have the power to adjourn the Meeting, without notice other than announcement at the Meeting, until a quorum shall be present or represented. Abstentions may be specified on all proposals other than with respect to the election of directors. Abstentions will be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum and will be counted as not voting on the proposal in question. Submitted proxies which are left blank will also be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum, but are not counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved in matters where the proxy does not confer the authority to vote on such proposal, and thus have no effect on its outcome.
 
The Company's Bylaws, as amended, provide that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. This means that the five candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or
shares present by proxy where the stockholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee will not be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality.

In all matters, other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented by proxy shall be sufficient for the approval of the proposals in this proxy statement and any other business which may properly be brought before the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof.
 
 
 

 
 
All shares of Common Stock represented in person or by valid proxies received by the Company prior to the date of, or at, the Meeting, and not revoked, will be voted as specified in the proxies or voting instructions.  Votes that are left blank will be voted as recommended by the Board. With regard to other matters that may properly come before the Meeting, votes will be cast at the discretion of the proxies.
 
Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed “non-routine.” Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker or nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. In the event that a broker, bank, or other agent indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a non-routine proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes.  We believe that all proposals in this proxy statement are non-routine proposals, except Proposal No. 3 with respect to the ratification of the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm, which is a routine matter; therefore, your broker, bank or other agent will not be entitled to vote on any of these proposals at the Meeting without your instructions. Broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. Other than for the purpose of establishing a quorum, as discussed above, broker non-votes will not be counted as entitled to be voted and will therefore not affect the outcome of the matters to be voted thereon.
 
Any stockholder who has submitted a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is voted, by written notice addressed to and received by our Secretary, by submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by electing to vote in person at the Meeting. The mere presence at the Meeting of the person appointing a proxy does not, however, revoke the appointment.
 
IMPORTANT:  If your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, nominee or other institution, you should provide instructions to your broker, bank, nominee or other institution on how to vote your shares.  Please contact the person responsible for your account and give instructions for a proxy to be completed for your shares.
 
Our website address is included several times in this proxy statement as a textual reference only and the information in our website is not incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.
 
PROPOSAL NO. 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
 
At the Meeting, five directors are to be elected, which number shall constitute our entire Board, to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors shall have been duly elected and qualified. Pursuant to our Bylaws, as amended, directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. This means that the five candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named or for persons other than the named nominees.
 
Unless otherwise specified in the proxy, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy to vote the stock represented thereby for the election as directors, each of the nominees whose names and biographies appear below. All of the nominees whose names and biographies appear below are presently our directors. In the event any of the nominees should become unavailable or unable to serve as a director, it is intended that votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Board.  The Board has no reason to believe that the nominees named will be unable to serve if elected.  Each nominee has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected.

Since May 2010, Mr. Lucatz has been serving as the President of Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd, our wholly-owned subsidiary ("Enertec"). Since 2006, he has been the Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of DL Capital Ltd ("DLC"), a boutique investment holding company based in Israel specializing in investment banking, deal structuring, business development and public/private fund raising with a strong focus in the defense and homeland security markets.

Optronics Ltd., a publicly-traded company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange engaged in the development, production and marketing of advanced electronic systems and solutions for the defense and security industries.

Previously, Mr. Lucatz was an executive vice president of Securitas, a public finance investments group. Mr. Lucatz holds a B.Sc. in Agriculture Economics and Management from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and a M.Sc. in Industrial and Systems Engineering from Ohio State University.
 
 
We believe that Mr. Lucatz’s experience over the last 25 years in management, operations, finance and business development in corporate turnaround, roll-up and M&A situations, as well as his experience in the electronics defense and homeland security sectors, make him suitable to serve as a director of the Company.

Mr. Bialos has over 30 years of experience in a broad range of domestic and international legal, governmental and public policy positions. He served as Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Industrial Affairs from January 1999 through December 2001 and in senior positions at the State and Commerce Department during the Clinton Administration and served on Defense Science Board task forces from June 1996 through June 1997. He also was appointed to the Secure Virginia Panel, Virginia’s homeland security board, by two Virginia Governors.  Mr. Bialos also  spent considerable time in private legal practice in Washington, D.C. with two large national law firms (currently, Sutherland, Asbill & Brennan LLP where he has been a partner since 2002 and, previously, Weil, Gotshal & Manges from January 1990 through June 1996).

We believe that Mr. Berman's significant experience in the finance and banking industry, as well as his dual U.S. and Israeli citizenship, make him suitable to serve as a director of the Company.

Required Vote
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, does not authorize cumulative voting. Our Bylaws, as amended, provide that directors are to be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. This means that the five candidates receiving the highest number of affirmative votes at the Meeting will be elected as directors. Only shares that are voted in favor of a particular nominee will be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Shares present at the Meeting that are not voted for a particular nominee or shares present by proxy where the stockholder properly withheld authority to vote for such nominee will not be counted toward that nominee’s achievement of a plurality. Broker non-votes will not impact the outcome of the vote on this proposal but will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.
 
The Board recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the director nominees named above.
 
PROPOSAL NO. 2 – APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY’S 2012 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
 
Our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2012 Incentive Plan") was initially adopted by the Board on November 26, 2012,  amended in 2013 and 2014 and approved by our stockholders on September 30, 2014. Under the 2012 Incentive Plan up to 750,000 shares of our Common Stock (subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or other similar events) are currently authorized to be issued pursuant to options awards granted thereunder, 746,000 shares of which have been issued or have been allocated to be issued as of September 10, 2015 and 4,000 shares remain available for future issuance as of September 10, 2015.

Our ability to grant equity awards is a necessary and powerful tool for recruitment and retention of valuable directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors. We have strived to use our equity plan resources effectively and maintain an appropriate balance between stockholder interests and the ability to attract, retain and reward directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors who are vital to our long-term success. However, we believe there are insufficient shares remaining under our 2012 Incentive Plan to meet our current and projected needs, absent the expiration or cancellation of currently outstanding equity awards. Accordingly, on May 13, 2015, our Board unanimously approved an amendment to the 2012 Incentive Plan, subject to stockholder approval, under which the maximum number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued under the 2012 Incentive Plan is increased by 250,000 shares, from 750,000 shares to 1,000,000 shares. We are requesting stockholder approval of the amendment to the 2012 Incentive Plan with an increased aggregate share limit so that we can continue to utilize the 2012 Incentive Plan as an effective tool to attract, retain and motivate high-quality directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors, especially in light of the increased growth of our business activities. If this proposal is approved, we intend to continue to consider and provide equity incentives to existing directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors as well as to certain newly-hired officers, directors, employees, consultants and advisors. If this proposal is approved, we expect to have sufficient shares available under the 2012 Incentive Plan for the next 24 months. Our Board believes the ability to grant stock options and other equity awards provides us with a powerful and necessary mechanism to attract and retain directors, officers, employees and other valuable consultants and advisors, especially in light of our limited cash resources.

The full text of the 2012 Incentive Plan, as proposed to be amended, is set forth in Exhibit A to this proxy statement.
 
Summary of the 2012 Incentive Plan
 
The material features of the 2012 Incentive Plan are described below. This summary does not purport to be a complete description of all of the provisions of the 2012 Incentive Plan, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2012 Incentive Plan.

Purpose of the Plan

The 2012 Incentive Plan is intended as an incentive to retain directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors to the Company, persons of training, experience and ability, to attract new employees, directors, consultants and advisors whose services are considered valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company, by granting to such persons options to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

Options granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan to Israeli residents shall be granted pursuant to the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 1961, as amended, including the Law Amending the Income Tax Ordinance (Number 132), 2002 (the “Ordinance”)  and any regulations, rules or orders or procedures promulgated thereunder.

Administration of the Plan
 
The Board may appoint and maintain as administrator of the 2012 Incentive Plan a Committee (the “Committee”) consisting of two or more directors who are, to the extent required under applicable law, “Non-Employee Directors” and “Outside Directors”, which shall serve at the pleasure of the Board.  If the Committee is appointed, the Committee, shall have full power and authority to designate recipients of options, to determine the terms and conditions of respective option agreements (which need not be identical), including the vesting schedule of the options, which may be performance based, to interpret the provisions and supervise the administration of the 2012 Incentive Plan, to accelerate the right to exercise, in whole or in part, any previously granted option, to grant new options in exchange for existing options, to determine whether an award has been earned (if performance requirements must be satisfied) and to make technical amendments to the 2012 Incentive Plan.  The Committee may also amend the terms of any option theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of any optionee without the optionee’s consent.
 
Subject to the provisions of the 2012 Incentive Plan, the Committee shall interpret the plan and all options granted thereunder, shall make such rules as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the 2012 Incentive Plan, shall make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2012 Incentive Plan and shall correct any defects or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the 2012 Incentive Plan or in any options granted thereunder in the manner and to the extent that the Committee deems desirable to carry into effect the 2012 Incentive Plan or any options.
 
Subject to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, as amended, the act or determination of a majority of the members of the Committee shall be the act or determination of the Committee and any decision reduced to writing and signed by all of the members of the Committee shall be fully effective as if such decision had been made by the Committee at a meeting duly called and held.  Subject to the provisions of the 2012 Incentive Plan, any action taken or determination made by the Committee shall be conclusive on all parties.
 
 
6

 
 
Scope of the Plan
 
               The total number of shares of stock reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to the 2012 Stock Incentive will be 1,000,000, all of which can be incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("Incentive Options")In addition, if shares of stock are subject to an award that terminates without such shares of stock being issued, then such shares of stock will again be available for grant and issuance under this plan.  Should any option expire or be canceled prior to its exercise in full or should the number of shares of stock to be delivered upon the exercise in full of an option be reduced for any reason, the shares of stock theretofore subject to such option may be subject to future options under the 2012 Incentive Plan, except where such reissuance is inconsistent with the provisions of Section 162(m) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code").
 
                In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock  dividend, or other change in corporate structure affecting the stock, the Committee shall make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the 2012 Incentive Plan and in the number and option price of shares subject to outstanding options granted thereunder, to the end that after such event each optionee’s proportionate interest shall be maintained as immediately before the occurrence of such event. The adjustments described above will be made only to the extent consistent with continued qualification of the option under Section 422 of the Code (in the case of an Incentive Option) and Section 409A of the Code (in the case of grantees potentially subject to Section 409A of the Code).
 
Eligibility
 
The persons eligible for participation in the 2012 Incentive Plan as recipients of options shall include employees, officers and directors of, and, subject to their meeting the eligibility requirements to participate in an  “employee benefit plan” as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, consultants and advisors to, the Company.
 
In selecting optionees, and in determining the number of shares to be covered by each option granted to optionees, the Committee may consider any factors it deems relevant, including without limitation, the office or position held by the optionee or the optionee’s relationship to the Company, the optionee’s degree of responsibility for and contribution to the growth and success of the Company, the optionee’s length of service, promotions and potential.  An optionee who has been granted an option hereunder may be granted an additional Option or Options, if the Committee shall so determine.
 
Terms and Conditions of Options
 
Option Price
 
The exercise price of each share of stock purchasable under the options shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, subject to the conditions set forth in the immediately following sentence.  The exercise price of each share of stock purchasable under an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of such share of stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the Incentive Option is granted; provided, however, that with respect to an optionee who, at the time such Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the exercise price per share of stock shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant. The exercise price of each share of stock purchasable under any option other than an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such share of stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the option is granted; provided, however, and notwithstanding any future amendment to the minimum exercise price of a Nonqualified Option, that if an option granted to the Company’s principal executive officer or to any of the Company’s other three most highly compensated officers (other than the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer) is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, the exercise price of such option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair  Market  Value of such share of stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the option is granted. The exercise price for each option shall be subject to adjustment as provided in the 2012 Incentive Plan.  In no event shall the exercise price of a share of stock be less than the minimum price permitted under the applicable rules and policies of any national securities exchange on which the shares of stock are listed.

“Fair Market Value” means the closing  price of publicly  traded  shares of stock on the principal securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Stock Market, on which shares of stock are listed (if the shares of stock are so listed), or, if not so listed, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices of publicly traded shares of stock in the over-the-counter market, or, if such bid and asked prices shall not be available, as reported by any nationally recognized quotation service selected by the Company, or as determined by the Committee in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Code.
 
Option Term  
 
The term of each option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such option is granted and in the case of an Incentive Option granted to an optionee who, at the time such Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, no such Incentive Option shall be exercisable more than five years after the date such Incentive Option is granted.
 
Exercisability
 
Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant and subject to all applicable laws and regulations.
 
Non-Transferability of Options
 
Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, awards granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan generally are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution, and all rights with respect to an award granted to a participant generally will be available during a participant’s lifetime only to the participant.

Change In Control

Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the 2012 Incentive Plan), the Committee may accelerate the vesting and exercisability of outstanding options, in whole or in part, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  In its sole discretion, the Committee may also determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each outstanding option shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the optionee thereunder, and each such optionee shall receive, with respect to each share of Company stock subject to such option, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such shares upon to such Change in Control over the exercise price per share of such option;  such amount shall be payable in cash, in one or more kinds of property (including the property, if any, payable in the transaction) or a combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion.

Amendment, Suspensions and Termination of the Plan

The Board may amend or terminate the 2012 Incentive Plan at any time, subject to any requirement of stockholder approval required by applicable law, rule or regulation, including, without limitation, NASDAQ Listing Rules. No amendment or termination of the 2012 Incentive Plan will impair the rights of any participant without the participant’s consent, unless required by applicable law, legislation, regulation or rule. Under Section 422(b)(2) of the Code, no incentive stock option may be granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan more than ten years from the date the 2012 Incentive Plan was amended and restated or the date such amendment and restatement was approved by our stockholders, whichever is earlier.

Federal Tax Aspects
 
The following summarizes the U.S. federal income tax consequences that generally will arise with respect to awards granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan. This summary is based on the tax laws in effect as of the date of this proxy statement. This summary assumes that all awards granted under the 2012 Incentive Plan are exempt from, or comply with, the rules under Section 409A of the Code related to nonqualified deferred compensation. Changes to these laws could alter the tax consequences described below. This discussion is not intended to be a complete discussion of all of the federal income tax consequences of the 2012 Incentive Plan or of all of the requirements that must be met in order to qualify for the tax treatment described herein. In addition, because tax consequences may vary, and certain exceptions to the general rules discussed herein may be applicable, depending upon the personal circumstances of individual holders of securities, each participant should consider his personal situation and consult with his own tax advisor with respect to the specific tax consequences applicable to him. No information is provided as to state tax laws.

Incentive Stock Options. A participant will not have income upon the grant of an incentive stock option. Also, except as described below, a participant will not have income upon exercise of an incentive stock option if the participant has been employed by the Company at all times beginning with the option grant date and ending three months before the date the participant exercises the option. If the participant has not been so employed during that time, then the participant will be taxed as described below under "Nonstatutory Stock Options." The exercise of an incentive stock option may subject the participant to the alternative minimum tax.

A participant will have income upon the sale of the stock acquired under an incentive stock option at a profit (if sales proceeds exceed the exercise price). The type of income will depend on when the participant sells the stock. If a participant sells the stock more than two years after the option was granted and more than one year after the option was exercised, then, if sold at a profit, all of the profit will be long-term capital gain or, if sold at a loss, all of the loss will be long-term capital loss. If a participant sells the stock prior to satisfying these waiting periods, then the participant will have engaged in a disqualifying disposition and the participant will have ordinary income equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the underlying stock at the time the option was exercised. Depending on the circumstances of the disqualifying disposition, the participant may then be able to report any difference between the fair market value of the underlying stock at the time of exercise and the disposition price as gain or loss, as the case may be.

Nonstatutory Stock Options. A participant will not have income upon the grant of a nonstatutory stock option. A participant will have compensation income upon the exercise of a nonstatutory stock option equal to the value of the stock on the day the participant exercised the option less the exercise price. Upon sale of the stock, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the value of the stock on the day the option was exercised. This capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant has held the stock for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

Tax Consequences to the Company. There will be no tax consequences to the Company except that the Company will be entitled to a deduction when a participant has compensation income. Any such deduction will be subject to the limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code.

PROPOSAL NO. 3 – RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF ZIV HAFT, A BDO MEMBER FIRM, AS INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM OF THE COMPANY FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2015.
 
Our audit committee of our Board, or the Audit Committee, has selected Ziv Haft, a BDO Member Firm, as our independent registered public accounting firm, or the Independent Auditors, for the current fiscal year, subject to ratification by our stockholders at the Meeting. We do not expect to have a representative of the Independent Auditors attending the Meeting.

Neither our by-laws, our other governing documents, nor other law requires stockholder ratification of the selection of the Independent Auditors as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Audit Committee is submitting the selection of the Independent Auditors to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain the Independent Auditors. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may decide to appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
 
Committees and Meetings of Our Board of Directors
 
The Board held four  meetings during Fiscal 2014. Throughout this period, each member of our Board who was a director in Fiscal 2014 attended or participated in at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of our Board held during the period for which such person has served as a director, and the total number of meetings held by all committees of our Board on which each the director served during the periods such director served. Our Board has three standing committees: the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Corporate Governance/ Nominating Committee.
 
Compensation Committee. The members of our Compensation Committee are Professor Chezy Ofir, Jacob Berman and Miki Balin. Mr. Jacob Berman is the Chairman of the Compensation Committee and our Board has determined that all of the members of the Compensation Committee are "independent" as defined by the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ rules and regulations. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter that is posted on our website at http://micronet-enertec.com.
 
 The primary responsibilities of our Compensation Committee include:
 
 
·
Reviewing and recommending to our Board of the annual base compensation, the annual incentive bonus, equity compensation, employment agreements and any other benefits of our executive officers;
 
 
·
Administering our equity based plans and exercising all rights authority and functions of the Board under all of the Company’s equity compensation plans, including without limitation, the authority to interpret the terms thereof, to grant options thereunder and to make stock awards thereunder; and
 
 
·
Annually reviewing and making recommendations to our Board with respect to the compensation policy for such other officers as directed by our Board.
 
The Compensation Committee meets, as often as it deems necessary, without the presence of any executive officer whose compensation it is then approving. The majority of the members of the Compensation Committee constitutes a quorum and is empowered to act on behalf of the Compensation Committee.  The Compensation Committee may delegate any authority granted to it with respect to officer compensation to the Chair or any other member of the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. Neither the Compensation Committee nor the Company engaged or received advice from any compensation consultant during 2014.
 
Our Compensation Committee held one meeting during 2014.
 
 
11

 
 
Audit Committee.  The members of our Audit Committee are Professor Chezy Ofir, Jacob Berman and Miki Balin. Jacob Berman is the Chairman of the Audit Committee, and our Board has determined that Jacob Berman is an "Audit Committee financial expert" and that all members of the Audit Committee are "independent" as defined by the rules of the SEC and the NASDAQ rules and regulations. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter that is posted on our website at http://micronet-enertec.com
 
The primary responsibilities of our Audit Committee include:
 
 
·
Appointing, compensating and retaining our registered independent public accounting firm;
 
 
·
Overseeing the work performed by any outside accounting firm;
 
 
·
Assisting the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities by reviewing: (i) the financial reports provided by us to the SEC, our stockholders or to the general public, and (ii) our internal financial and accounting controls; and
 
 
·
Recommending, establishing and monitoring procedures designed to improve the quality and reliability of the disclosure of our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our Audit Committee held four meetings during 2014.
 
Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee.  The members of our Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee are Mr. Jeffrey P. Bialos and Mr. Jacob Berman. Mr. Jacob Berman is the Chairman of the Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee and our Board has determined that all of the members of the Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee are "independent" as defined by the rules of the SEC and NASDAQ rules and regulations. The Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee operates under a written charter that is posted on our website at http://micronet-enertec.com
 
The primary responsibilities of our Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee include:
 
 
·
Assisting the Board in, among other things, effecting Board organization, membership and function including identifying qualified Board nominees; effecting the organization, membership and function of Board committees including composition and recommendation of qualified candidates; establishment of and subsequent periodic evaluation of successor planning for the chief executive officer and other executive officers; development and evaluation of criteria for Board membership such as overall qualifications, term limits, age limits and independence; and oversight of compliance with applicable corporate governance guidelines; and
 
 
·
Identifying and evaluating the qualifications of all candidates for nomination for election as directors.
 
Potential nominees will be identified by the Board based on the criteria, skills and qualifications that will be recognized by the Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee. In considering whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the Board’s slate of recommended director nominees, our Corporate Governance/Nominating Committee will apply criteria including the candidate’s integrity, business acumen, knowledge of our business and industry, age, experience, diligence, conflicts of interest and the ability to act in the interests of all stockholders. No particular criteria will be a prerequisite or will be assigned a specific weight, nor do we have a diversity policy.  We believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of our directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will result in a well-rounded board of directors and allow the Board to fulfill its responsibilities.

The Company has never received communications from stockholders recommending individuals to any of our independent directors. Therefore, we do not yet have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by stockholders. In 2014, we did not pay a fee to any third party to identify or evaluate, or assist in identifying or evaluating, potential nominees for our Board. We have not received any recommendations from stockholders for Board nominees. All of the nominees for election at the Meeting are current members of our Board.

Board Leadership Structure.  Our leadership structure includes the combined positions of Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company believes this structure is appropriate for a company of our size and complexity because the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer (a) is most familiar with the Company’s business and industry, (b) possesses detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities and challenges facing the Company, and is thus best positioned to develop agendas to ensure the Board’s time and attention are focused on matters which are critical to the Company, and (c) conveys a clear, cohesive message to our stockholders, employees and industry partners.
 
Mr. David Lucatz serves as our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer. In his position as Chairman of the Board, Mr. Lucatz is responsible for setting the agenda and priorities of the Board. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lucatz leads our day-to-day business operations and is accountable directly to the full Board. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lucatz has day-to-day responsibility, together with Mr. Eyal Leibovitz, our Chief Financial Officer, for our management operations and for general oversight of our business and the various management teams that are responsible for our day-to-day operations. We believe that this structure provides an efficient and effective leadership model for the Company.
 
Because the Chairman of the Board is also the President and Chief Executive Officer, the Board has designated an independent director to serve as the lead independent director to enhance the Board’s ability to fulfill its responsibilities independently. The Board appointed Jacob Berman as lead independent director. The lead independent director serves as the liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors.
 
We believe that the combined role of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, together with an empowered lead independent director, is the optimal Board structure to provide independent oversight and hold management accountable while ensuring that our Company’s strategic plans are pursued to optimize long-term shareholder value.
 
Risk Oversight.  The Board, including the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, periodically reviews and assesses the significant risks to the Company. Our management is responsible for the Company's risk management process and the day-to-day supervision and mitigation of risks. These risks include strategic, operational, competitive, financial, legal and regulatory risks. Our Board leadership structure, together with the frequent interaction between our directors and management, assists in this effort. Communication between our Board and management regarding long-term strategic planning and short-term operational practices include matters of material risk inherent in our business.
 
The Board plays an active role, as a whole and at the committee level in overseeing management of the Company’s risks. Each of our Board committees is focused on specific risks within their areas of responsibility, but the Board believes that the overall enterprise risk management process is more properly overseen by all of the members of the Board. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of financial and accounting risks. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to executive compensation plans and arrangements. While each committee is responsible for the evaluation and management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed through committee reports. The Board incorporates the insight provided by these reports into its overall risk management analysis.
 
The Board administers its risk oversight responsibilities through the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, who, together with management representatives of the relevant functional areas review and assess the operations of the Company as well as operating management’s identification, assessment and mitigation of the material risks affecting our operations.
 
Code of Ethics. We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our directors, executive and financial officers and all of our employees. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is publicly available on our website at http://micronet-enertec.com  and we will provide, at no charge, persons with a written copy upon written request made to us.

COMMUNICATING WITH OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS
 
Our Board will give appropriate attention to written communications that are submitted by stockholders, and will respond if and as appropriate.  Mr. Jacob Berman, one of our independent directors and the Chairman of our Audit Committee, with the assistance of our outside counsel, is primarily responsible for monitoring communications from our stockholders and for providing copies or summaries to the other directors as he considers appropriate. Communications are forwarded to all directors if they relate to substantive matters and include suggestions or comments that Mr. Berman considers to be important for the directors to know.  In general, communications relating to corporate governance and long-term corporate strategy are more likely to be forwarded than communications relating to ordinary business affairs, personal grievances and matters as to which we tend to receive repetitive or duplicative communications.
 
Stockholders who wish to send communications on any topic to our Board should address such communications to: Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc., c/o Eyal Leibovitz , Chief Financial Officer, at the address on the first page of this proxy statement.
 
ATTENDANCE AT SPECIAL AND ANNUAL STOCKHOLDER MEETINGS
 
We encourage our directors to attend our special and annual stockholders meetings. Mr. David Lucatz, our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer attended our last annual stockholder meeting.

In November 2012, entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz reached agreements with each of Micronet and the Company, for the provision of management and consulting services to Micronet and the Company, respectively. On November 7, 2012, the board of directors and the Audit Committee of the board of directors of Micronet approved the entry into a management and consulting services agreement with DLC, pursuant to which, effective November 1, 2012 Mr. Lucatz agreed to devote 60% of his time to Micronet matters for the three year term of the agreement and Micronet agreed to pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz management fees of NIS 65,000 (approximately $18,172) on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses. Such agreement was further subject to the approval of Micronet’s stockholders, which was obtained at a special meeting held on January 30, 2013 for that purpose and went into effect following its execution on February 8, 2013. On November 26, 2012, DLC entered into a 36-month management and consulting services agreement with the Company, effective November 1, 2012, which provides that we (via any of our directly or indirectly fully owned subsidiaries) will pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz: (1) management fees of $13,333 on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses, (2) an annual bonus of 3% of the amount by which the annual earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for such year exceeds the average annual EBITDA for 2011 and 2010, and (3) a one-time bonus of 0.5% of the purchase price of any acquisition or capital raising transaction, excluding only a specified 2013 public equity offering, completed by us during the term of the agreement.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
 
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our Common Stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the SEC and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during 2014, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.
 
REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
 
In the course of our oversight of the Company’s financial reporting process, we have: (1) reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements for Fiscal 2014; (2) discussed with the Independent Auditors the matters required to be discussed by Public Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees; (3) received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent accountant the independent accountant’s independence; (4) discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence; and (5) considered whether the provision of nonaudit services by the independent registered public accounting firm is compatible with maintaining its independence and concluded that it is compatible at this time.
 
Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, for filing with the SEC.

INFORMATION CONCERNING OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Our Audit Committee has retained Ziv Haft, a BDO Member Firm, as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2014. The Independent Auditors have performed the audit of our financial statements since inception. We do not expect to have a representative of the Independent Auditors attending the Meeting. The following table summarizes the fees the Independent Auditors billed for the last two fiscal years:

Audit Fees

Audit fees are for audit services for each of the years shown in this table, review of our quarterly financial results submitted on Form 10-Q, and performance of local statutory audits.

Audit-Related Fees

Audit-related fees relate to assurance and associated services that traditionally are performed by the independent auditor, including government approval, due diligence services and other services in connection with the acquisition of Beijer Electronics Inc.'s U.S.-based vehicle business operation, such as appraisal and valuation analysis.

Tax Fees

Tax fees are for professional services rendered by our auditors for tax advice on actual or contemplated transactions and in connection with government grants and incentives by the Office of the Chief Scientist of Israel's Ministry of Economy.
 
Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
 
SEC rules require that before the Independent Auditors are engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
 
1.           pre-approved by our Audit Committee; or
 
2.          entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Audit Committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the Audit Committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities to management.
 
Currently, the Audit Committee acts with respect to audit policy, choice of auditors, and approval of out of the ordinary financial transactions. The Audit Committee pre-approves all services provided by our Independent Auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee before the services were rendered.
 
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
 
Our policy is to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that are on the whole no less favorable to us than those that would be available from unaffiliated parties at arm’s length.  Based on our experience in the business sectors in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met this policy standard at the time they occurred.

On July 12, 2011, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with UTA Capital LLC (“UTA”), a Delaware limited liability company and the beneficial owner of 12.39% of our Common Stock (the “Purchase Agreement”, and as amended by that certain letter agreement dated as of August 16, 2011, and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of August 31, 2011 and that certain Third Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of November 24, 2011 (the “Original Agreement”), pursuant to which UTA, agreed to provide financing to Micronet Enertec on a secured basis.
 
On March 8, 2013, UTA fully exercised certain warrants (the “UTA Warrants”), and the Company issued an aggregate of 726,746 shares of Common Stock to UTA upon such exercise, which represented approximately 18.3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of March 14, 2013. Of the UTA Warrants, warrants to purchase 476,113 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2011, were exercised for the full amount of such shares at an aggregate exercise price of $476,000 based on an exercise price of $1.00 per share, which exercise price was paid by reducing the $480,000 liability the Company owed UTA for the amendments and releases described above. The remaining UTA Warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2012, were partially exercised for 250,633 shares through a cashless exercise method.

Exhibit A
 
MICRONET ENERTEC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
2012 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
 
A PLAN UNDER SECTION 102 OF THE ISRAELI INCOME TAX ORDINANCE AND
 
THE UNITED STATES INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986
 
1.              NAME AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN
 
1.1           This plan, as amended from time to time, shall be known as the Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan” or the “Plan”).
 
1.2           The Plan is intended as an incentive to retain in the employ of, and as directors, consultants and advisors to Lapis Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and its subsidiaries (including any “employing company” under Section 102(a) of the Ordinance (as hereinafter defined) and any “subsidiary” within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), collectively, the “Subsidiaries”), persons of training, experience and ability, to attract new employees, directors, consultants and advisors whose services are considered valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its Subsidiaries, by granting to such persons options (the “Options”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Stock”, and the grant of Options to purchase shares of Stock, the “Award”).
 
1.3           Options granted under this Plan to Israeli residents shall be granted pursuant to the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 1961, as amended, including the Law Amending the Income Tax Ordinance (Number 132), 2002 (the “Ordinance”)  and any regulations, rules or orders or procedures promulgated thereunder (the “Rules”).
 
1.4           The Company intends that the Plan meet the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (“Rule 16b-3”) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and that transactions of the type specified in subparagraphs (c) to (f) inclusive of Rule 16b-3 by officers and directors of the Company pursuant to the Plan will be exempt from the operation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act.  Further, the Plan is intended to satisfy the performance-based compensation exception to the limitation on the Company’s tax deductions imposed by Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to those Options for which qualification for such exception is intended and to comply with Code Sections 409A and 422.  In all cases, the terms, provisions, conditions and limitations of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted consistent with the Company’s intent as stated in this Section 1.
 
2.              ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN.
 
2.1           The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) may appoint and maintain as administrator of the Plan a Committee (the “Committee”) consisting of two or more directors who are, to the extent required under applicable law, “Non-Employee Directors” (as such term is defined in Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) and “Outside Directors” (as such term is defined in Section 162(m) of the Code), which shall serve at the pleasure of the Board.  If the Committee is appointed, the Committee, subject to Sections 4 and 8 hereof, shall have full power and authority to designate recipients of Options, to determine the terms and conditions of respective Option agreements (which need not be identical) (the “Option Agreements”), including the vesting schedule of the Options, which may be performance based (the “Vesting Schedule”) to interpret the provisions and supervise the administration of the Plan, to accelerate the right to exercise, in whole or in part, any previously granted Option, to grant new options in exchange for existing Options (subject to Section 15 and to the extent that such exchange does not cause the Options to be subject to Code Section 409A) to determine whether an Award has been earned (if performance requirements must be satisfied) and to make technical amendments to the Plan including amendments required under the Code.  The Committee may also amend the terms of any Option theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of any Optionee without the Optionee’s consent.
 
 
 

 
 
2.2           Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall interpret the Plan and all Options granted under the Plan, shall make such rules as it deems necessary for the proper administration of the Plan, shall make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan and shall correct any defects or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Options granted under the Plan in the manner and to the extent that the Committee deems desirable to carry into effect the Plan or any Options.
 
2.3           Subject to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, as amended, the act or determination of a majority of the members of the Committee shall be the act or determination of the Committee and any decision reduced to writing and signed by all of the members of the Committee shall be fully effective as if such decision had been made by the Committee at a meeting duly called and held.  Subject to the provisions of the Plan, any action taken or determination made by the Committee pursuant to this and the other Sections of the Plan shall be conclusive on all parties.
 
2.4           The Committee may delegate to one or more executive officers of the Company the authority to grant an Award under the Plan to persons eligible to receive such Awards other than an officer or director of the Company or any other person whose transactions in the Company’s Stock are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (an “Insider”).
 
2.5           In the event that for any reason the Committee is unable to act or if the Committee at the time of any grant, award or other acquisition under the Plan of Options or Stock as hereinafter defined does not consist of two or more Non-Employee Directors, or if there shall be no such Committee, then the Plan shall be  administered by the Board, and references herein to the Committee (except in the proviso to this sentence) shall be deemed to be references to the Board, and any such grant, award or other acquisition may be approved or ratified in any other manner contemplated by subparagraph (d) of Rule 16b-3; provided, however, that options granted to the Company’s principal executive officer or to any of the Company’s other three most highly compensated officers (other than the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer) that are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code may only be granted by the Committee.
 
3.              SCOPE OF THE PLAN.
 
3.1           Subject to the terms of Section 3.3 hereof, the total number of shares of Stock reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan will be 1,000,000, all of which can be Incentive Options.  In addition, if shares of Stock are subject to an Award that terminates without such shares of Stock being issued, then such shares of Stock will again be available for grant and issuance under this Plan.  Should any Option expire or be canceled prior to its exercise in full or should the number of shares of Stock to be delivered upon the exercise in full of an Option be reduced for any reason, the shares of Stock theretofore subject to such Option may be subject to future Options under the Plan, except where such reissuance is inconsistent with the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code.
 
3.2           The Company will, at all times, reserve and keep available the number of shares of Stock necessary to satisfy the requirements of all Awards then outstanding under this Plan.  The shares of Stock subject to the Plan shall consist of unissued shares, treasury shares or previously issued shares held by any Subsidiary of the Company, and such amount of shares of Stock shall be and is hereby reserved for such purpose.  Any of such shares of Stock that may remain unsold and that are not subject to outstanding Options at the termination of the Plan shall cease to be reserved for the purposes of the Plan, but until termination of the Plan the Company shall at all times reserve a sufficient number of shares of Stock to meet the requirements of the Plan.
 
 
A - 2

 
 
3.3           In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock  dividend, or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, the Committee shall make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan and in the number and option price of shares subject to outstanding Options granted under the Plan, to the end that after such event each Optionee’s proportionate interest shall be maintained as immediately before the occurrence of such event. The adjustments described above will be made only to the extent consistent with continued qualification of the Option under Section 422 of the Code (in the case of an Incentive Option) and Section 409A of the Code (in the case of grantees potentially subject to Section 409A of the Code).
 
4.              ELIGIBILITY.
 
4.1           The persons eligible for participation in the Plan as recipients of Options (the “Optionees”) shall include employees, officers and directors of, and, subject to their meeting the eligibility requirements to participate in an “employee benefit plan” as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act (as defined below), consultants and advisors to, the Company or any Subsidiary.
 
4.2           In selecting Optionees, and in determining the number of shares to be covered by each Option granted to Optionees, the Committee may consider any factors it deems relevant, including without limitation, the office or position held by the Optionee or the Optionee’s relationship to the Company, the Optionee’s degree of responsibility for and contribution to the growth and success of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Optionee’s length of service, promotions and potential.  An Optionee who has been granted an Option hereunder may be granted an additional Option or Options, if the Committee shall so determine.
 
5.              OPTIONS GRANTED UNDER THE ORDINANCE.
 
5.1           Options granted under Section 102 of the Ordinance (“102 Options”) may be granted only to Israeli employees and Office Holders excluding any “Controlling Holders” as such term is defined in the Ordinance.  Options granted under Section 3(i) of the Ordinance (“3(i) Options”) may be granted only to consultants and to any Israeli employees or Office Holders who are Controlling Holders.
 
5.2           102 Options shall be either (a) capital gains track options under Section 102(b)(2), in which income resulting from the sale of Stock underlying the Options is taxed as capital gain (“Capital Gains Options”), (b) ordinary income track options under Section 102(b)(1), in which income resulting from the sale of Stock underlying the Options is taxed as ordinary income (“Ordinary Income Options” and, together with the Capital Gains Options, the “Approved 102 Options”) or (c) options granted pursuant to Section 102(c) (“Unapproved  102 Options”).
 
5.3           The Company’s election of the type of Approved 102 Options as Capital Gains Options or Ordinary Income Options granted to Optionees (the “Election”), shall be appropriately filed with the Israeli Tax Authorities (the “ITA”) before the date of  grant of an Approved 102 Option.  Such Election shall become effective beginning the first grant of an Approved 102 Option under this Plan and shall remain in effect until the end of the year following the year during which the Company first granted Approved 102 Options.  The Election shall obligate the Company to grant only the type of Approved 102 Option it has elected, and shall apply to all Optionees who were granted Approved 102 Options during the period indicated herein, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102(g) of the Ordinance.  For the avoidance of doubt, such Election shall not prevent the Company from granting Unapproved 102 Options during such period.
 
5.4           Without derogating from anything to the contrary contained herein, solely for the purpose of determining the tax liability pursuant to Section 102(b)(3) of the Ordinance, if at the date of grant of Approved 102 Options the Company’s shares are listed on any established stock exchange or a national market system or if the Company’s shares will be registered for trading within ninety (90) days following such date of grant, the value of a share of Stock at such date of grant shall be determined in accordance with the average value of the Company’s shares of Stock on the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of grant or on the thirty (30) trading days immediately following the date of registration for trading, as the case may be.
 
 
A - 3

 
 
5.5           With respect to Unapproved 102 Option, if the Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, the Optionee shall extend to the Company and/or its Subsidiary a security or guarantee for the payment of tax due at the time of sale of shares of Stock, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the Rules.
 
5.6           Trustee.  All Approved 102 Options must be held by a person appointed by the Company to serve as a trustee and approved by the ITA in accordance with the provisions of Section 102(a) of the Ordinance (the “Trustee”) in accordance with the following:
 
5.6.1        Approved 102 Options which shall be granted under the Plan and/or any shares of Stock allocated or issued upon exercise of such Approved 102 Options and/or other shares of Stock received subsequently following any realization of rights, including without limitation, bonus shares, shall be allocated or issued to the Trustee and held for the benefit of the Optionees for such period of time as required by Section 102 or the Rules (the “Holding Period”).  In the case the requirements for Approved 102 Options are not met, the Approved 102 Options may be treated as Unapproved 102 Options, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102 and the Rules.
 
5.6.2         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Trustee shall not release any shares of Stock allocated or issued upon exercise of Approved 102 Options prior to the full payment of the Optionee’s tax liabilities arising from Approved 102 Options which were granted to him and/or any shares of Stock allocated or issued upon exercise of such Options.
 
5.6.3         With respect to any Approved 102 Option, subject to the provisions of Section 102 and the Rules, an Optionee shall not sell or release from trust any shares of Stock received upon the exercise of an Approved 102 Option and/or any shares of Stock received subsequently following any realization of rights, including without limitation, bonus shares, until the lapse of the Holding Period required under Section 102 of the Ordinance.  Notwithstanding the above, if any such sale or release occurs during the Holding Period, the sanctions under Section 102 of the Ordinance and under the Rules shall apply to, and shall be borne by, such Optionee.
 
5.6.4         Upon receipt of an Approved 102 Option, the Optionee will sign an undertaking to release the Trustee from any liability in respect of any action or decision duly taken and executed in good faith in relation with the Plan or any Approved 102 Option or shares of Stock granted to him thereunder.
 
5.7           The grant of Approved 102 Options shall be conditioned upon the approval of this Plan by the Israeli Tax Authorities.  In addition, the provisions of the Plan and/or the Option Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the Ordinance and the Tax Assessing Officer’s permit, and the said provisions and permit shall be deemed an integral part of the Plan and of the Option Agreement.  Any provision of the Ordinance and/or the said permit which is necessary in order to receive and/or to keep any tax benefit pursuant to the Ordinance, which is not expressly specified in the Plan or the Option Agreement, shall be considered binding upon the Company and the Optionees.
 
5.8           The Committee shall have the authority, without limitation, to determine which method, the capital gain method or the work income method or any other method available under Section 102 of the Ordinance, shall be adopted for the purposes of the Plan and to appoint a Trustee, if the Committee deems it advisable or necessary.

6.              OPTIONS GRANTED UNDER THE CODE.
 
6.1           Options granted to employees of the Company or of one of its Subsidiaries (under Code Section 424(f)), who are not residents of the State of Israel, shall either constitute incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (“Incentive Options”), while certain other Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be nonqualified stock options (“Nonqualified Options”).
 
6.2           Subject to meeting all applicable requirements, the Committee shall have the authority, without limitation, to designate which Options granted under the Plan shall be Incentive Options and which shall be Nonqualified Options.
 
6.3           The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be subject to Incentive Options or Nonqualified Options granted under the Plan to any individual in any calendar year shall not exceed 100,000 shares (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof), and the method of counting such shares shall conform to any requirements applicable to performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code; provided, however, that new employees of the Company or of any Subsidiary (including new employees who are also officers and directors of the Company or any Subsidiary), will be eligible to receive Options to purchase up to a maximum of 200,000 of the Company’s Stock in the calendar year in which they commence their employment.
 
6.4           The aggregate Fair Market Value (as hereinafter defined), determined as of the date the Incentive Option is granted, of Stock for which Incentive Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionee during any calendar year under the Plan (and/or any other stock  option plans of the Company or any Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000.
 
6.5           Optionees shall be required as a condition of the exercise to furnish to the Company any income or payroll (employment) tax required to be withheld.  In the case of an Incentive Option, if the Optionee makes a disposition, within the meaning of Section 424(c) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, of any share or shares of Stock issued to him upon exercise of an Incentive Option granted under the Plan within the two-year period commencing on the day after the date of the grant of such Incentive Option or within a one-year period commencing on the day after the date of transfer of the share or shares to him pursuant to the exercise  of  such Incentive Option, he shall, within 10 days after such disposition, notify the Company thereof.
 
7.             OTHER AWARDS.  All other types of Awards not referenced in Sections 5 and 6 may be granted to any employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary; provided that with respect to any consultant, however, that such consultant is a natural person and the Award is in full or partial compensation for bona fide services unconnected with any offer and sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction.
 
8.             TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.  Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable:
 
8.1           OPTION PRICE.  The exercise price of each share of Stock purchasable under the Options shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant, subject to the conditions set forth in the immediately following sentence.  The exercise price of each share of Stock purchasable under an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (as hereinafter defined) of such share of Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the Incentive Option is granted; provided, however, that with respect to an Optionee who, at the time such Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, the exercise price per share of Stock shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of grant. The exercise price of each share of Stock purchasable under any Option other than an Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such share of Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the Option is granted; provided, however, and notwithstanding any future amendment to the minimum exercise price of a Nonqualified Option, that if an option granted to the Company’s principal executive officer or to any of the Company’s other three most highly compensated officers (other than the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer) is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, the exercise price of such Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair  Market  Value of such share of Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date the Option is granted. The exercise price for each Option shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.3 herein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the exercise price of a share of Stock be less than the minimum price permitted under the rules and policies of any national securities exchange on which the shares of Stock are listed.
 
 
A - 5

 
 
“Fair Market Value” means the closing  price of publicly  traded  shares of Stock on the principal securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Stock Market, on which shares of Stock are listed (if the shares of Stock are so listed), or, if not so listed, the mean between the closing bid and asked prices of publicly traded shares of Stock in the over-the-counter market, or, if such bid and asked prices shall not be available, as reported by any nationally recognized quotation service selected by the Company, or as determined by the Committee in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Code.
 
8.2           OPTION TERM.  The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Option shall be exercisable more than ten years after the date such Option is granted and in the case of an Incentive Option granted to an Optionee who, at the time such Incentive Option is granted, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary, no such Incentive Option shall be exercisable more than five years after the date such Incentive Option is granted.
 
8.3           EXERCISABILITY.  Subject to Section 6.4 hereof, Options shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant.
 
8.4           METHOD OF EXERCISE.  Options to the extent then exercisable may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the option period, by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of shares of Stock to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price, in cash, or by check or such other instrument as may be acceptable to the Committee.  As determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, at or after grant, payment in full or in part may be made at the election of the Optionee (i) in the form of Stock owned by the Optionee (based on the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the trading day before the Option is exercised) which is not the subject of any pledge or security interest, (ii) in the form of shares of Stock withheld by the Company from the shares of Stock otherwise to be received with such withheld shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price of the Option, or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing, provided that the combined value of all cash and cash equivalents and the Fair Market Value of any shares surrendered to the Company is at least equal to such exercise price and except with respect to (ii) above, such method of payment will not cause a disqualifying disposition of all or a portion of the Stock received upon exercise of an Incentive Option. An Optionee shall have the right to dividends and other rights of a stockholder with respect to shares of Stock purchased upon exercise of an Option at such time as the Optionee has (i) given written notice of exercise and has paid in full for such shares and (ii) has satisfied such conditions that may be imposed by the Company with respect to the withholding of taxes.
 
8.5            NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS AND SHARES OF STOCK UNDERLYING OPTIONS.
 
8.5.1        Except as provided in Section 8.5.3 hereof, during the lifetime of an Optionee, only the Optionee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetence, the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise an Option.  Except as provided in Section 8.5.3 hereof, no Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Optionee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution except pursuant to a domestic relations order.
 
 
A - 6

 
 
8.5.2        With respect to Approved 102 Options, as long as Options and/or shares of Stock are held by the Trustee on behalf of the Optionee, all rights of the Optionee over the Options and the shares of Stock are personal, and cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution.
 
8.5.3        An Optionee may transfer by gift all or part of an Option that is not an  Incentive Option to any “family member” (as that term is defined under Rule 701(c)(3) of the Securities Act, as amended or any successor provision of law); provided, that (x) there shall be no consideration for any such transfer and (y) subsequent transfers of transferred Options shall be prohibited except those made in accordance with this Section 8.5.3 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order and otherwise in compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state and foreign securities laws. Following any permitted transfer hereunder, any transferred Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to such transfer, provided that for purposes of this Section 8.5.3 the term “Optionee” shall be deemed to refer to the transferee and the transferee shall agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Options and this Plan.  The events of termination of the employment or other relationship of Section 8.9 hereof shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Optionee, following which the Option shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent and for the periods specified in Section 8.6, 8.7, 8.8, or 8.9 hereof.
 
8.6           TERMINATION BY REASON OF DEATH.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, if any Optionee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of death, the Options granted to such Employee may thereafter be exercised, to the extent then exercisable (or on such accelerated basis as the Committee shall determine at or after grant), by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Optionee under the will of the Optionee, for a period of one year after the date of such death or until the expiration of the stated term of such Option as provided under the Plan, whichever period is shorter.
 
8.7           TERMINATION BY REASON OF DISABILITY.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, if any Optionee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of permanent and total disability within the meaning of Code Section 22(e)(3) (“Disability”), any Option held by such Optionee may thereafter be exercised, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of termination due to Disability (or on such accelerated basis as the Committee shall determine at or after grant), but may not be exercised after 30 days after the date of such termination of employment or service or the expiration of the stated term of such Option, whichever period is shorter;  provided, however, that, if the Optionee dies within such 30-day period, any unexercised Option held by such Optionee shall thereafter be exercisable to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death for a period of one year after the date of such  death or for the stated  term of such Option, whichever period is shorter.
 
8.8           TERMINATION BY REASON OF RETIREMENT.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, if any Optionee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates by reason of Normal or Early Retirement (as such terms are defined below), any Option held by such Optionee may thereafter be exercised to the extent it was exercisable at the time of such Retirement (or on such accelerated basis as the Committee shall determine at or after grant), but may not be exercised after 90 days after the date of such termination of employment or service or the expiration of the stated term of such Option, whichever period is shorter; provided, however, that, if the Optionee dies within such 90-day period, any unexercised Option held by such Optionee shall thereafter be exercisable, to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year  after  the date of such death or for the stated term of such Option, whichever period is shorter.
 
For purposes of this paragraph, “Normal Retirement” shall mean retirement from active employment with the Company or any Subsidiary on or after the normal retirement date specified in the applicable Company or Subsidiary pension plan or if no such pension plan exists, age 65, and “Early Retirement” shall mean retirement from active employment with the Company or any Subsidiary pursuant to the early retirement provisions of the applicable Company or Subsidiary pension plan or if no such pension plan exists, age 55.
 
 
A - 7

 
 
8.9           OTHER TERMINATION.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at grant, if any Optionee’s employment with or service to the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or Normal or Early Retirement, the Option shall thereupon terminate, except that the portion of any Option that was exercisable on the date of such termination of employment or service may be exercised for the lesser of 90 days after the date of termination or the balance of such Option’s term if the Optionee’s employment or service with the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated by the Company or such Subsidiary without cause (the determination as to whether termination was for cause to be made by the Committee). The transfer of an Optionee from the employ of or service to the Company to the employ of or service to a Subsidiary, or vice versa, or from one Subsidiary to another, shall not be deemed to constitute a termination of employment or service for purposes of the Plan.  The sale or other disposition of a Subsidiary will be considered a termination of employment even if the Optionee continues to be employed by the Subsidiary.
 
8.10         OPTION AGREEMENT.  Each Option granted pursuant to the Plan, shall be evidenced by a written Option Agreement between the Company and the Optionee, in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve.  Each Option Agreement shall state, among other matters, the number of shares of Stock to which the Option relates, the type of Option granted thereunder (whether a Capital Gains Option, Ordinary Income Option, Unapproved 102 Option, 3(i) Option, Incentive Option or Nonqualified Option), the Vesting Dates, the exercise price per share, the expiration date and such other terms and conditions as the Committee in its discretion may prescribe, provided that they are consistent with this Plan.
 
9.              CHANGE IN CONTROL.
 
9.1           Upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control” (as hereinafter defined), the Committee may accelerate the vesting and exercisability of outstanding Options, in whole or in part, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  In its sole discretion, the Committee may also determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, each Outstanding Option shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the Optionee thereunder, and each such Optionee shall receive, with respect to each share of Company Stock subject to such Option, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such shares upon to such Change in Control over the exercise price per share of such Option;  such amount shall be payable in cash, in one or more kinds of property (including the property, if any, payable in the transaction) or a combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion.
 
9.2           For purposes of the Plan, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if:
 
9.2.1        a tender offer (or series of related offers) shall be made and consummated for the ownership of 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, unless as a result of such tender offer more than 50% of the  outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the shareholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to the commencement of such offer), any employee  benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates;
 
9.2.2        the Company shall be merged or consolidated with another corporation, unless as a result of such merger or consolidation more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the shareholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to such transaction), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates;
 
9.2.3        the Company shall sell substantially all of its assets to another corporation that is not wholly owned by the Company, unless as a result of such sale more than 50% of such assets shall be owned in the aggregate by the shareholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to such transaction), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries and their affiliates; or
 
 
A - 8

 
 
9.2.4        a Person (as defined below) shall acquire 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (whether directly, indirectly, beneficially or of record), unless as a result of such acquisition more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall be owned in the aggregate by the shareholders of the Company (as of the time immediately prior to the first acquisition of such securities by such Person), any employee benefit plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates.
 
9.3           For purposes of this Section 9, ownership of voting securities shall take into account and shall  include  ownership as  determined  by applying the provisions  of Rule 13d-3(d)(I)(i) (as in effect on the date hereof) under the Exchange Act.  In addition, for such  purposes, “Person” shall have the meaning given in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof; however, a Person shall not include (A) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (B) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (C) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities; or (D) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of stock of the Company.
 
9.4           The Committee may determine, at its sole discretion, that the terms of Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall provide for additional benefits to be granted to the Optionee in the event of a Change in Control.  Any such additional benefits will not be subject to any tax benefits granted to Optionees in connection with the Award and will be taxed pursuant to the provisions of the Ordinance and the Code, as applicable.
 
10.            EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN; TERM OF PLAN.  The Plan shall be effective on November 26, 2012; provided, however, that the Plan shall subsequently be approved by majority vote of the Company’s stockholders generally entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders not later than November 25, 2013.  No Option shall be granted pursuant to the Plan on or after November 26, 2022, but Options theretofore granted may extend beyond that date.
 
11.            PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT.  Unless the Options and shares covered by the Plan have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Company has determined that such registration is unnecessary, each person exercising an Option under the Plan may be required by the Company to give a representation in writing that he is acquiring the shares for his own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any part thereof.
 
12.            TAXES.
 
12.1         Any tax consequences arising from the grant or exercise of any Option, from the payment for Stock covered thereby or from any other event or act (of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, the Trustee or the Optionee), hereunder, shall be borne solely by the Optionee.  The Company and/or its Subsidiaries and/or the Trustee shall withhold taxes according to the requirements under the applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including withholding taxes at source.  Furthermore, the Optionee shall agree to indemnify the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and/or the Trustee and hold them harmless against and from any and all liability for any such tax or interest or penalty thereon, including without limitation, liabilities relating to the necessity to withhold, or to have withheld, any such tax from any payment made to the Optionee.
 
12.2         The Company and/or, when applicable, the Trustee shall not be required to release any Stock certificate to an Optionee until all required payments have been fully made.
 
12.3         To the extent provided by the terms of an Option Agreement, the Optionee may satisfy any tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of tocks under an Option by any of the following  means (in addition to the Company’s right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Optionee by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) subject to the Committee’s approval on the payment date, authorizing the Company to withhold Shares from the Shares otherwise issuable to the Optionee as a result of the exercise or acquisition of Shares under the Option in an amount not to exceed the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) subject to Committee approval on the payment date, delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered Shares; provided that Shares acquired on exercise of Options have been held for at least 6 months from the date of exercise.
 
 
A - 9

 
 
12.4         The Company may make such provisions as it may deem appropriate, consistent with applicable law, in connection with any Options granted under the Plan with respect to the withholding of any taxes (including capital gains, income or employment taxes) or any other tax matters.
 
13.           PUBLIC OFFERING.  As a condition of Participation in this Plan, each Optionee shall be obligated to cooperate with the Company and the underwriters in connection with any public offering of the Company’s securities and any transactions relating to a public offering, and shall execute and deliver any agreements and documents, including without limitation, a lock-up agreement, that may be requested by the Company or the underwriters.  The Optionees’ obligations under this Section 13 shall apply to any Stock issued under the Plan as well as to any and all other securities of the Company or its successor for which Stock may be exchanged or into which Stock may be converted.
 
14.            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.
 
14.1         The Board may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan, except that no amendment shall be made that would impair the rights of any Optionee under any Option theretofore granted without the Optionee’s consent, and except that no amendment shall be made which, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company would:
