Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, assuming that prior to the issuance and sale of any of Offered Shares under the Sales Agreement, the price, number of Offered Shares and certain other terms of issuance with respect to any specific placement notice delivered under the Sales Agreement will be authorized and approved by the Board or a pricing committee of the Board in accordance with Israeli law, all corporate proceedings necessary for the authorization, issuance and delivery of the Offered Shares shall have been taken upon issuance pursuant to the terms of the Sales Agreement against payment of the consideration set forth in the Sales Agreement and in accordance with resolutions of the Board related to the Offering, the Offered Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, are not subject to any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights of any securityholder of the Company pursuant to the Company’s currently effective Articles, Israeli law or the documents governed by the laws of the State of Israel.
With respect to our opinion as to the Offered Shares, we have assumed that, at the time of issuance and sale and to the extent any such issuance would exceed the maximum share capital of the Company currently authorized, the number of Ordinary Shares that the Company is authorized to issue shall have been increased in accordance with the Articles such that a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares are authorized and available for issuance under the Articles.
Members of our firm are admitted to the Bar in the State of Israel, and we do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction. This opinion is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated.
