10 10 CHAPTER THREE: CALCULATION OF PRICES 1. The base prce for tradng any securty shall be the prce determned on the precedng tradng day as the closng prce, subject to the followng provsons: A. If a securty - other than the securty of a foregn company, as defned n the Stock Exchange Regulatons (Part Two) - was lsted for tradng for the frst tme, otherwse than as the result of swtchng securtes or as a result of a merger or splt of a lsted company, then no base prce shall be set on the frst tradng day; however, the contnuous tradng system shall - for operatonal purposes of tradng only - use an openng parameter, as specfed below: 1) For securtes other than dervatves - 1; 2) For dervatves - no openng parameter shall be determned and t shall be stated that the prce "has not yet been establshed". 3) For the securtes of a company lsted on a foregn Stock Exchange the last prce set for that securty on the foregn Stock Exchange, multpled by the known representatve exchange rate (n agorot) of the currency n whch tradng n conducted on the foregn Stock Exchange. B. The base prce of a securty of a company, of whch ts two knd of securtes that are lsted for tradng were combned nto one securty, shall be calculated as the weghted average of the closng prces of the securtes that were combned, accordng to the rato of each of the combned securtes to the company's captal, n accordance wth the number of shares of each of the combned securtes on the tradng day that precedes the day on whch they were combned. C. 1) The base prce on the frst tradng day of a securty s frst regstered for tradng as part of a merger process or of a spn-off process of a regstered company, shall be calculated n accordance wth the provsons of the Appendx to the Regulatons on Base Prces. 2) (a) The base prce of securty on the Ex-day shall be calculated n accordance wth the provsons of the Appendx to the Regulatons on Base Prces.

If the Stock Exchange has been notfed that the payment sn't accordng to the orgnal terms of the bond or the convertble bond, the base prce shall be calculated n accordance wth subsecton 2) (a) above. D. 1) The base prce of a securty, n whch tradng was renewed after t had been halted for not longer than three months shall be the last closng prce set for that securty.

11 11 2) In respect of a securty n whch tradng was renewed after t had been halted for longer than three months, no base prce shall be set; however, for the operatonal requrements of tradng alone, the TACT system shall use an openng parameter, as specfed for a securty when t s frst regstered for tradng otherwse than as the result of a merger process or of a spn-off process. E. In respect of the securty of a foregn company, as defned n the Stock Exchange Regulatons (Part Two), whch s lsted for tradng for the frst tme, the base prce for tradng shall be the last prce set for that securty on an Exchange abroad, multpled by the known representatve exchange rate (n agorot) of the tradng currency of the Exchange abroad. F. The base prce of a securty that was lsted for tradng for the frst tme, and replace, not as part of a merger proceedng lsted securtes ("Replaced securty") shall be equal to the closng prce of the replaced securty exchanged on the tradng day precedng the frst day of tradng of the securty for replacement. Purposes of ths secton "securty for replacement" means - a securty that all ts characterstcs are dentcal to those of the replaced securty. 2. Notwthstandng the provsons of secton 1 above, the base prce of a securty, other than a dervatve, shall not be less than one Agora per tradng unt. 3. The base prce of a securty shall be rounded off to the nearest level for the submsson of an order. 3A. A. 1) When the closng phase s concluded for a securty, the Stock Exchange shall calculate and publsh the closng prce for each securty separately, as specfed n subsecton B. below. 2) Closng prces shall be calculated one after the other for all the securtes; the order of the securtes, for calculaton of the closng prces, shall be random and t shall change every day. B. The closng prce shall be calculated as follows: 1) If the amount of transactons n the closng tradng phase reached an amount that the Board of Drectors wll prescrbe, then the closng tradng prce shall be the closng prce. The Board of Drectors may set dfferent amounts for dfferent categores or dfferent groups of securtes. 2) If the amount of transactons n the closng tradng phase dd not reach the amount determned under subsecton 3A.B.1) above, then the closng prce The Board of Drectors decded that the amount of transactons n the closng tradng phase, by categores of securtes, shall be as follows: a) for shares ncluded n the Tel Avv 25 ndex NIS 400,000; b) for shares ncluded n the Tel Avv 75 ndex NIS 200,000; c) for other shares and securtes convertble nto shares NIS 100,000; d) for bonds, bond optons, M.K.M. and commercal paper NIS 400,000

12 12 shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of the prces of the transactons carred out n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out wth the securty durng the last ten mnutes of the contnuous tradng phase. If the last transacton that was ncluded n the calculaton of the aforesad closng prce was a transacton that was carred out n the prce montorng aucton, wthn the meanng thereof n Chapter Fve of the Regulatons to the Thrd Part of the Rules (hereafter: "Prce Montorng aucton"), then for purposes of the calculaton only a proportonal part of the transacton shall be taken nto account, so that the cumulatve amount of transactons wll be equal to the amount prescrbed under the subsecton 3A.B.1 above). 3) If the amount of transactons n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out wth the securty durng the last ten mnutes of the contnuous tradng phase, dd not reach the amount set under subsecton 3A.B.1) above, then the closng prce shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of the prces of the transactons carred out n the closng tradng phase, together wth the last transactons carred out wth the securty durng the contnuous tradng phase, untl ther cumulatve amount reaches the amount set under subsecton 3A.B.1) above. For ths purpose, f, after the last transacton ncluded n the calculaton of the closng prce the amount of the sad transactons s greater than the amount specfed above, then the last transacton shall be ncluded n the calculaton of the closng prce. If the last transacton that was ncluded n the aforesad calculaton was a transacton that was carred out n prce montorng aucton, then for purposes of the calculaton only a proportonal part of the last transacton shall be taken nto account, so that the cumulatve amount of transactons wll be equal to the amount prescrbed under the subsecton 3A.B.1 above). 4) However, f the amount of transactons n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out wth the securty durng the last thrty mnutes of the contnuous tradng phase, dd not reach the amount set under subsecton 3A.B.1) above, then the closng prce shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of the prces of the transactons carred out n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out wth the securty durng the last thrty mnutes of the contnuous tradng phase and together wth the last transactons carred out wth the securty before the sad thrty mnutes, n a quantty equal to the mnmum for calculaton of the closng prce. The mnmum quantty for calculaton of the closng prce s as follows: a) 1 In respect of shares, convertble bonds and opton bonds a quantty of securtes wth a monetary value to be set by the Board of Drectors, whch shall be between NIS 20,000 and NIS 50,000; 1 The Board of Drectors decded that the value of shares, convertble bonds and opton bonds, for the purpose of mnmum quantty for calculaton of the closng prce shall be 30,000 NIS.

The provsons of ths subsecton shall not apply to hybrd bonds, as defned n subsecton 1.I of chapter 2 above. f) (1) The mnmum quantty for calculaton of a closng prce shall be calculated every month, on the last tradng day of the month, and t shall reman n effect durng the entre month, subject to the provsons of secton 3A.B.1)(2) below; (2) On the ex-day for rghts for adjustment the quantty of securtes shall be adjusted by the rghts dstrbuted accordng to the basc prce of the securty on that day; For ths purpose, f the last transacton ncluded n the calculaton of the closng prce was carred out durng the contnuous tradng phase, and f after the transacton was added the number of securtes n sad transactons exceeds the mnmum quantty for

14 14 calculatng the closng prce of the securty, then the last transacton n ts entrety shall be ncluded n the calculaton; If the last transacton ncluded n the calculaton of the closng prce was carred out durng the openng tradng phase or n the prce montorng aucton, then only the proportonal part of the sad last transacton shall be taken nto account for the calculaton, so that the quantty of securtes n the transactons wll equal the mnmum quantty for calculatng the closng prce of the securty; If the quantty of securtes n the transactons carred out before the sad thrty mnutes does not reach the mnmum quantty for calculatng the closng prce of the securty, then the closng prce shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of the prces of all the transactons carred out on that day; 5) If no transactons were carred out durng the closng tradng phase and durng the contnuous tradng phase, then the closng prce shall be set at the openng prce of the securty on that tradng day; 6) If contnuous tradng was resumed after tradng n the securty was halted, then the sad closng prce shall be set as follows: a) If more than thrty mnutes are left untl the end of the contnuous tradng phase for the securty, then the closng prce shall be set as specfed n subsecton 3A.B.1) to 3A.B.4) above, as the case may be, but n no case shall transactons carred out before the addtonal openng phase be ncluded n the calculaton. b) If thrty mnutes or less are left untl the end of the contnuous tradng phase for the securty, then the closng prce shall be set as specfed n subsecton 3A.B.1) to 3A.B.3) above, as the case may be; for ths purpose, transactons carred out after the addtonal openng phase shall be ncluded n the calculaton. If the sad amount of the transactons does not reach the amount prescrbed under subsecton 3A.B.1) above, then the closng prce shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of prces n the transactons carred out wth the securty n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out wth the securty n the contnuous tradng phase after the addtonal openng phase, and together wth the transactons carred out durng the addtonal openng phase, or part of the transactons carred out durng the addtonal openng phase, untl ts cumulatve amount equals the amount prescrbed under subsecton 3A.B.1); c) If no transactons were carred out n the closng tradng phase and n the contnuous tradng phase after the addtonal openng phase, then the closng prce shall be set at the addtonal openng prce of the securty on that tradng day; d) If tradng n the securty was resumed durng the pre-closng phase, then the closng prce shall be set at the closng tradng prce.

15 15 7) If tradng n a securty was opened belatedly, because tradng n the securty was halted, then the closng prce of the securty shall be set as specfed n subsecton 3A.B.6) above, but wherever n subsecton 3A.B.6) t says "addtonal openng prce", read "openng prce", and wherever there t says "addtonal openng tradng phase", read "openng tradng phase". 8) In respect of a securty ncluded n the llqud lst, and a securty ncluded n the mantenance lst, the closng prce shall be calculated as prescrbed n subsecton 3A.B.1) above; f the amount of transactons n the closng phase dd not reach the amount prescrbed under subsecton 3A.B.1) above, then the closng prce shall be calculated accordng to the weghted average of the prces of transactons carred out wth the securty n the closng tradng phase, together wth the transactons carred out durng the openng tradng phase, or wth part of the transactons carred out durng the openng tradng phase, untl ts cumulatve amount equals the amount prescrbed under subsecton 3A.B.1). 9) Canceled. 10) a) Notwthstandng the provsons of subsectons 3A.B.1) to 3A.B.8) above, f the quantty of securtes, accordng to whch closng prces were calculated, s smaller than the quanttes specfed below, as the case may be, then the closng prce shall be calculated n the manner specfed n subsecton 3A.B.10) below: (1) In respect of shares ncluded n the Tel Avv 25 ndex a quantty of securtes equal to 0.5 of the mnmum sze of an order for those shares; (2) In respect of shares not ncluded n the Tel Avv 25 ndex, of securtes convertble nto shares and of rghts - a quantty of securtes equal to the mnmum sze of an order for those securtes; (3) In respect of bonds and bond optons a quantty of securtes equal to 0.1 of the mnmum sze of an order for those securtes; (4) In respect of M.K.M. - a quantty of securtes equal to 0.1 of the mnmum sze of an order for those M.K.M.; (5) In respect of commercal paper - a quantty of securtes equal to 0.1 of the mnmum sze of an order for those commercal papers; (6) In respect of securtes on the small captalzaton lst and on the llqud lst - a quantty of securtes equal to the mnmum sze of an order for those securtes n the contnuous tradng phase, f those securtes were to be traded n the contnuous tradng phase.

20 CHAPTER FIVE: TRADING IN SECURITIES EXCLUSIVE OF DERIVATIVES Phases of Tradng In these Regulatons: " The Reference Prce " - The prce of the last transacton n the securty; however, untl the frst transacton n the securty s carred out on a certan tradng day, the reference prce shall be equal to that securty's bass prce on that day; "Prce Montorng" a) In the openng phase, n respect to a securty that s not ncluded n the TA-25 ndex the postponement of openng tradng wth that securty n accordance to the Regulatons heren and subject to the exceptons specfed below. b) In the contnuous phase shft to a prce montorng aucton n the securty, n accordance to the Regulatons heren and subject to the exceptons specfed below. c) In the pre-closng phase - the postponement of closng tradng n the securty, n accordance to the Regulatons heren and subject to the exceptons specfed below. "Prce Montorng Aucton" "Mult-lateral Tradng" - Iceberg Order (ICE) "Fll Or Kll Order" (FOK) "Immedate Or Cancel Order" (IOC) Tradng carred out n the format of openng tradng, followng the use of prce montorng n the course of the contnuous tradng phase. Openng tradng, addtonal openng tradng, separate openng tradng, prce montorng aucton and closng tradng. A lmt order submtted wth three portons: total volume, ntal peak sze and addtonal peak sze that s ntended to be shown. Intal Peak sze of an Iceberg order" the porton of an ceberg order to be dsplayed n the order book upon submsson of the order. Addtonal Peak sze of an Iceberg order the porton of an ceberg order desgnated to be dsplayed n the order book followng the full executon of the ntal peak sze. Vsble porton of an ceberg order- the porton of an ceberg order desgnated for dsplay n the order book. Hdden Porton of an ceberg order" the total volume of the order less the porton of the order whch has been executed and less the vsble porton of the order at that tme; A lmt order to be carred out completely and mmedately; A lmt order to be carred out mmedately and completely;

21 21 "Stop-Lmt Order (STL) "Market Order (MKT)" "Lmt Order" (LMT) "Lmt Order for the Openng Trade (LMO)" Trggerng "Dynamc Threshold" - A lmt order, whch n addton to the prce to whch t s lmted, set that t wll become executable n the order book only when the prce of the last transacton equals or s hgher than a specfed prce, or alternatvely, when the prce of the last transacton equals or s lower than a specfed prce (hereafter: trggerng prce ). Upon trggerng, the order wll be regstered n the order book for executon accordng to the prce lmt desgnated on t; A buy order or a sell order, not lmted by prce, to be carred out at the market prce; A buy order or a sell order lmted by any prce; A lmt order to be carred out only durng the openng tradng phase; Submsson n the order book of a stop-lmt order for the purpose of executng transactons accordng to the prce lmt stpulated on the order. The expected rate of change n the prce of a securty compared to the reference prce of that securty, as the Board of Drectors shall determne, on condton that the transacton n whch the reference prce was set was carred out durng or after the last multlateral tradng n the securty. The Board of Drectors may set dfferent values of the Dynamc threshold for dfferent categores of securtes or for dfferent groups of securtes. "Statc Threshold" a) In the Pre-Openng phase The rate of change of the last theoretcal openng prce of the securty compared to ts bass prce, as the Board of Drectors wll prescrbe. b) In other tradng phases The expected rate of change n the prce of the securty compared to the prce determned n the last mult-lateral tradng that was held n the securty, as the Board of Drectors wll prescrbe. The Board of Drectors may set dfferent values of the statc threshold for dfferent categores of securtes or for dfferent groups of securtes. Tradng wll take place n fve tradng phases, as specfed below. A. The Pre-openng Phase No transactons wll be carred out durng ths phase of tradng. 1) A member may only submt buy and sell orders to the Exchange, as specfed below:

22 22 a) Lmt orders (LMT), where the prce s lmted between the basc prce and the lmt of the permtted daly fluctuaton durng the openng phase; b) Lmt orders for the openng trade (LMO), where the prce s lmted between the basc prce and the lmt of the permtted daly fluctuaton at the openng phase. c) Stop-Lmt Order (STL). Orders of ths type shall be submtted n the order book as trgger pendng orders and wll not partcpate n the Openng tradng phase. d) Iceberg Order (ICE), for whch the lmt starts at the base prce up untl the daly prce fluctuaton permtted n the Openng tradng phase. Orders that dffer from those specfed above shall be rejected and notce thereof shall be sent to the member who submtted them. 2) Orders submtted shall be regstered n the Order Book. 3) The precedence of the orders shall be determned as follows: a) Buy sde Orders stpulatng hgher prce lmts shall have prorty over orders wth lower prce lmts. b) Sale sde Orders stpulatng lower prce lmts shall have prorty over orders wth hgher prce lmts. c) For orders stpulatng the same prce lmt, buy and sell orders separately, prorty shall be set as follows: 1) Lmt orders, lmt orders for openng phase and the ntal peak of ceberg orders, accordng to the order receved by TASE; 2) Hdden portons of ceberg orders, accordng to the order receved by TASE. 4) a) The Exchange shall, for each securty separately, calculate and publsh the prce and the tradng volume that would have been determned, f the openng tradng sad below had been carred out for that securty at the tme the calculaton was made, and that n accordance wth the buy and sell orders for that securty receved untl the tme of the calculaton. (The sad prce shall hereafter be called the "theoretcal prce" and the sad tradng volume shall hereafter be called the "theoretcal openng volume"). The theoretcal openng prce of a securty s the prce at whch a full or a partal balance was reached between buy and sell orders, excludng trgger pendng orders, subject to the precedence set n paragraph 3) above and at whch the tradng volume s the hghest.

23 23 If the hghest tradng volume of a certan securty s reached at more than one prce, then the prce nearest the basc prce shall be the theoretcal prce. If no full or partal balance between buy and sell orders s reached or f no orders at all were submtted for that securty, then ts basc prce shall be the theoretcal openng prce of that securty. b) Publcaton of the theoretcal openng prces and of the theoretcal openng volumes for each of the securtes shall begn 10 mnutes after the begnnng of ts pre-openng. When, begnnng wth that moment, an addtonal order s submtted for any securty, and then up-dated theoretcal prces and theoretcal tradng volumes shall be calculated and publshed for that securty. 5) The move to the openng tradng phase a) Immedately before the begnnng of the openng tradng phase (hereafter: "The Orgnal Openng Tme") the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex and the last theoretcal openng prce for each securty shall be calculated. b) If the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex fluctuated by less than 2.5% compared to the bass ndex on that day, or f the rates of change n the last theoretcal prces of all the shares ncluded n the TA-25 ndex are equal to or lower than the statc thresholds determned for those shares - Openng tradng shall take place at the orgnal openng tme. If the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex fluctuated by 2.5% or more compared to the bass ndex on that day, and f the rate of change n the last theoretcal prce of a share ncluded n the TA-25 ndex s hgher than the statc threshold determned for that share, openng tradng on that day shall be postponed for a tme that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes (hereafter: "The Frst Extenson").. c) At the end of the frst extenson, mmedately before the openng tradng, the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex and the theoretcal openng prce of every securty shall be recalculated. d) If the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex fluctuated by less than 2.5% compared to the bass ndex on that day, and f the rates of change of the last theoretcal prces of all the shares ncluded n the TA-25 ndex are equal to or lower than the statc thresholds prescrbed for those shares - Openng tradng shall take place at the end of the frst extenson.

24 24 If the last theoretcal TA-25 ndex fluctuated by 2.5% or more compared to the bass ndex on that day, or f the rate of change n the last theoretcal openng prce of a share ncluded n the TA-25 ndex s hgher than the statc thresholds determned for that share, openng tradng on that day shall be postponed for a second tme that s to be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes (hereafter: "The Second Extenson"). e) At the end of the second extenson, mmedately before the tme for begnnng the openng tradng phase, the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex shall agan be calculated. f) If the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by less than 5% from the basc ndex on that day, openng tradng on that day shall take place at the end of the second extenson. If the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by 5% or more from the basc ndex on that day, openng tradng on that day shall agan be postponed by an arbtrary amount of tme of between 44 and 45 mnutes (hereafter: "the frst crcut breaker"). g) When the frst crcut breaker s actvated, the followng shall take place: 1) Tradng n dervatves of shares and n dervatves of share ndexes shall be stopped. The sad tradng n dervatves wll be renewed when the openng phase of tradng n shares takes place, 2) A notce that the frst crcut breaker was actvated shall be publshed mmedately over the Stock Exchange nformaton dstrbuton system; 3) If the of the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex, as calculated under subsecton e) above, changed by 12% or more from the basc ndex on that day, then the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may postpone the openng tradng phase on that day by more than 45 mnutes or untl the end of the tradng day, and that n consultaton wth the Charman of the Board of Drectors. h) At the end of the frst crcut breaker, mmedately before the tme for begnnng the openng tradng phase, the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex shall agan be calculated. ) If the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by less than 12% from the basc ndex on that day, openng tradng on that day shall take place at the end of the frst crcut breaker; If the of the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex, as calculated under subsecton e) above, changed by 12% or more from the basc ndex on that day, then openng tradng n shares, n securtes convertble nto shares and n ETN's of whch the underlyng asset s a share basket ndex shall be postponed and tradng n dervatves of shares and n dervatves of share ndexes shall be stopped (hereafter: "second crcut breaker").

25 25 j) When the second crcut breaker s actvated, the followng shall take place: 1) A notce that the second crcut breaker was actvated shall be publshed mmedately over the Stock Exchange nformaton dstrbuton system; 2) The General Manager of the Stock Exchange may, n consultaton wth the Charman of the Board of Drectors, postpone the openng tradng phase on that day by an addtonal 45 mnutes, or he may stop tradng untl the end of the tradng day. k) 1) If the openng tradng phase was postponed twce on the same day because crcut breakers were actvated and f the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex, whch was calculated at the end of the second crcut breaker, changed by 12% or more from the basc ndex on that day, then the General Manager of the Stock Exchange or a person authorzed by hm shall stop tradng n shares, n securtes convertble nto shares, n ETN's for whch the underlyng asset s a share basket ndex, n dervatves of shares and n dervatves of share ndexes, and that untl the end of the tradng day. 2) Notwthstandng the aforesad, the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may, n consultaton wth the Charman of the Board of Drectors, resume tradng on the same tradng day, f t s hs opnon that under the crcumstances there s justfcaton for dong so. When the decson to resume tradng has been made, the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may decde to change the tradng schedule and notce thereof shall mmedately be made publc on the nformaton dstrbuton systems of the Stock Exchange. A sad resumpton of tradng may be after less than 45 mnutes elapsed snce the notce of the tradng halt had been made. l) The provsons of the above subsectons f) to k) shall not apply on the tradng day after the day on whch the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by 12% or more from the basc ndex of that day. m) In addton and subject to the aforesad, for a securty that s not ncluded n the TA-25 ndex the move to the openng tradng phase shall be as specfed below: 1) If the rate of change n the last theoretcal prce of the securty compared to ts basc prce s hgher than the statc threshold determned for that securty, prce montorng shall be actvated for that securty durng an nterval that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes.

26 26 2) At the end of the prce montorng aforementoned n subsecton 1) the last theoretcal openng prce of the securty shall agan be calculated accordng to the orders for the securty that were submtted up to the tme of the calculaton. 3) If the rate of change n the last theoretcal prce of the securty compared to ts basc prce s equal to or lower than the statc threshold determned for that securty, openng tradng n that securty shall take place. 4) If the rate of change n the last theoretcal prce of the securty compared to ts basc prce s hgher than the statc threshold determned for that securty, prce montorng shall agan be actvated for that securty durng an nterval that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes, followed by openng tradng n that securty. B. The Openng Tradng Phase 1) Durng ths tradng phase, sell orders submtted for each securty durng the preopenng phase, excludng trgger pendng orders, shall confront such buy orders, and an openng prce and tradng volume shall be establshed for each securty. 2) The orders regstered n the Order Book shall be carred out n the order of precedence set n subsecton A.3) above, at the openng prce determned as sad below. 3) a) The Exchange shall calculate the openng prce of each securty separately, n accordance wth the orders submtted durng the preopenng phase, excludng trgger pendng orders. If a transacton ncluded n the aforesad calculaton of the openng prce was canceled, then the General Manager of the Exchange may order the openng prce of that securty to be calculated anew, as specfed n paragraphs 4) and 5) below, and Exchange ndexes to be calculated anew n accordance therewth. b) The calculaton of the openng prce shall be made, for each of the securtes, one after the other; the order of the securtes for calculatng the prce shall be random and t shall change every day. 4) The openng prce of a securty s the prce at whch buy and sell orders are n full or partal balance, excludng trgger pendng orders, subject to the order of precedence prescrbed n subsecton A.3) above, and at whch the tradng volume s the hghest. If the hghest tradng volume of a certan securty s reached at more than one prce, then the prce nearest the basc prce shall be the openng prce. 5) If no full or partal balance between buy and sell orders s reached or f no orders at all were submtted for a securty, then the openng prce of that securty shall be ts basc prce and the tradng volume shall be zero.

27 27 8) a) Orders that were not carred out durng the openng phase of tradng, excludng trgger pendng orders, as well as the part that was not carred out of the orders that were carred out n part durng the openng phase of tradng shall be transferred automatcally to the contnuous tradng phase specfed below. b) The aforesad LMT orders shall be transferred to the contnuous tradng phase wth ther orgnal lmts. c) Stop-lmt orders submtted durng Pre-openng phase shall be transferred to the Contnuous tradng phase. d) The precedence of the sad orders durng the contnuous tradng phase shall be n accordance wth the tme when they were orgnally receved by the Exchange. The provsons of ths subsecton shall not apply to ceberg orders whch were transferred from the Openng to the Contnuous tradng phase and the executed porton durng the openng phase exceedng or equal to the vsble porton. In such case, at the begnnng of Contnuous phase, the addtonal peak sze of the ceberg order shall become the vsble porton and the prorty of executon of ths porton shall be as specfed n subsecton 6.c) below. e) LMO orders, whch were not carred out durng the openng phase of tradng, as well as the part not carred out of the sad orders that were carred out n part durng the openng phase of tradng shall be cancelled. C. The Contnuous Tradng Phase 1) Durng ths phase of tradng, transactons are carred out on a blateral bass. In each transacton the prce of the transacton and the volume traded shall be determned. 1a) a) For each securty, upon the begnnng of Contnuous phase n t, the stop-lmt orders meetng the trggerng crteron wth respect to the openng prce shall be actvated. The order of prorty of trggerng wll be as follows: (1) Accordng to the absolute value of the dfference between the trgger prce and the openng prce, from the orders wth the hghest dfference to those wth the lowest dfference. (2) Orders for whch the absolute value of the dfference between the trgger prce and the openng prce s equal, accordng to the order receved by TASE. b) The prevson of subsecton a) above shall not apply to securtes for whch an openng prce was set but tradng volume was zero. In such case, stop-lmt orders shall be trggered mmedately followng the executon of the frst Contnuous trade transacton n

28 28 the securty on that same day. The order of prorty for trggerng shall be set wth respect to the prce set n ths transacton. 2) A member may submt buy and sell orders to the Exchange only as specfed below: a) Lmt Orders (LMT). b) Market Orders (MKT). c) Fll or kll Orders (FOK). d) Immedate or Cancel Orders (IOC). e) Stop-Lmt Order (STL) f) Iceberg Order (ICE) g) A pre-arranged order can only be submtted as a lmt order (LMT) or as Fll or kll order (FOK) or Immedate or Cancel order (IOC). Orders that dffer from the above wll be rejected. 3) Orders submtted at ths phase of tradng are examned, n the order of ther arrval at the Exchange, whether they can be carred out aganst counter orders that are regstered n the Order Book. Stop-lmt orders shall be examned as aforementoned only followng ther trggerng. 4) An LMT order, ceberg order, trggered stop-lmt order, Fll or kll Order and Immedate or Cancel Order, that s a buy order wll be carred out aganst LMT orders, trggered stop-lmt orders and ceberg orders that are sell orders wth lmts lower than or equal to the lmt n the buy order, begnnng wth the sell order on whch the prce lmt s the lowest and movng up to the sell order on whch the prce lmt equals the prce lmt of the buy order or untl the entre buy order s carred out, as the case may be, subject to subsectons 4b) to 4d) below. An LMT order, ceberg order, trggered stop-lmt order, Fll or kll Order and Immedate or Cancel Order, that s a sell order wll be carred out aganst LMT orders, trggered stop-lmt orders and ceberg orders that are buy orders wth lmts hgher than or equal to the lmt n the sell order, begnnng wth the buy order on whch the prce lmt s the hghest and movng up to the buy order on whch the prce lmt equals the prce lmt of the sell order or untl the entre sell order s carred out, as the case may be, subject to subsectons 4a) to 4b) below. An MKT order that s a buy order wll be carred out aganst LMT orders, trggered stop-lmt orders and ceberg orders that are sell orders, begnnng wth mplementaton aganst the sell order on whch the prce lmt s the lowest and up to the sell order on whch the prce lmt s the hghest, and that untl the entre buy order s carred out, subject to subsectons 4b) to 4d) below. An MKT order that s a sell order wll be carred out aganst LMT orders, trggered stop-lmt orders and ceberg orders that are buy orders, begnnng wth mplementaton aganst buy orders on whch the prce lmt s the hghest

29 29 and movng down to the buy order on whch the prce lmt s the lowest, and that untl the entre sell order s carred out, subject to subsectons 4b) to 4d) below. 4a) Iceberg order submtted to ths tradng phase and not fully executed as stpulated n subsecton 4) above, shall be submtted n the order book wth a vsble porton and a hdden porton, where the vsble porton shall equal the volume of the ntal peak. However, should the sze of the remanng porton followng transacton executon as stpulated n subsecton 4) above, be smaller than the ntal peak, the vsble porton wll equal the volume of the remanng porton. Followng the executon of the entre vsble porton of the order, the hdden porton shall become the vsble porton as follows: a. Should the hdden porton equal or exceed the addtonal peak the addtonal peak sze shall become the vsble porton and the hdden porton shall be reduced accordngly. Notwthstandng that stated above, f followng a reducton n the hdden porton as stpulated n ths subsecton, the volume of the hdden porton falls below the mnmum order sze, then the entre hdden porton shall become the vsble porton, and the hdden porton shall be cancelled out. b. Should the hdden porton be less than the addtonal peak sze the entre hdden porton shall become the vsble porton and the hdden porton shall be cancelled out. 4a1) Upon the submsson of a stop-lmt order, the trgger crteron shall be examned. If the crteron s met the order shall be trggered n the order book mmedately. If the crteron s not met the order wll reman n the order book trggered pendng untl the trgger crteron s met. 4a2) Followng each transacton n a securty, the stop-lmt orders for that securty wll be examned and the orders meetng the trgger crteron wth respect to the prce of that transacton shall be actvated. The prorty order set for trggerng orders shall be as follows: a.) Among the stop-lmt orders for whch the trgger prce set n the order equals or exceeds a certan prce - all orders wth lower trgger prces shall have prorty over those wth hgher trgger prces. b.) Among the stop-lmt orders for whch the trgger prce set n the order equals or s lower than a certan prce - all orders wth hgher trgger prces shall have prorty over those wth lower trgger prces. c.) The order of prorty for trggerng stop-lmt orders wth the same trgger prce shall be the order n whch they are receved by TASE.

30 30 4b) When LMT order has been submtted or ceberg order or upon stop-lmt order trggerng, the prces at whch the order s to be carred out shall be examned. If, n consequence of the order, the expected rate of change n the prce of the securty s greater than the dynamc or the statc threshold, transactons n whch the fluctuaton s lower than or equal to the dynamc or the statc threshold, as the case may be, shall be carred out mmedately as specfed n the above subsecton 4), and mmedately after that prce montorng shall be actvated durng an nterval that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 5 and 6 mnutes, and a prce montorng aucton for that securty shall take place, subject to the adjustments and changes specfed below: a) The part of the order that was not flled after the aforesad transactons were carred out shall be entered n the Order Book. b) Member may submt buy and sell LMT orders, stop-lmt order (STL) and ceberg orders (ICE) to the Stock Exchange. Stop lmt orders submtted durng a prce montorng for whch the trgger crteron holds wth respect to the last executed transacton prce pror to the start of the prce montorng, shall be actvated mmedately upon submsson and shall partcpate n the tradng conducted durng the prce montorng. c) Whle those orders are beng accepted, a theoretcal prce and a theoretcal tradng volume of the securty shall be publshed. d) At the end of the perod for the acceptance of aforesad orders, the buy and sell orders that were n the Order Book shall be matched; f a complete or a partal matchng between the buy and sell orders was not acheved or f no orders at all had been submtted for the securty, the reference prce of the securty shall be the prce for the prce montorng aucton; f the hghest tradng volume of the securty was acheved at more than one prce, the prce nearest to the reference prce of the securty shall be the montorng aucton prce. e) In a prce montorng aucton of a securty an unlmted fluctuaton of ts prce s permtted. f) After the prce has been establshed n the prce montorng aucton contnuous tradng shall be resumed. g) When the tme for the acceptance of orders for a securty n the course of the Pre-closng phase has ended, the provsons of the above paragraphs a) to f) shall apply; however, the tme for concludng the prce montorng aucton shall be postponed and t shall come when closng phase tradng s n progress. h) The prce montorng mechansm does not cancel orders that were submtted before the prce montorng aucton began.

31 31 4b1) When MKT orders or FOK orders are submtted, the prces at whch the orders are to be flled shall be examned and the followng shall apply: a) Transactons that are to be carred out n consequence of sad orders, n whch the fluctuaton s lower than or equal to the dynamc or the statc threshold, as the case may be, shall be carred out mmedately, as specfed n the above subsecton 4). b) The part of an order that was not flled after the transactons mentoned n the above subsecton a) had been carred out shall be erased and shall not be entered n the Order Book. 4c) When IOC orders are submtted, the prces at whch the orders are to be carred out shall be examned; f the expected rate of change n the prce of the securty s greater than the dynamc or the statc threshold, the order shall be erased and no transactons shall be carred for t. 4d) The provsons of the above subsectons 4b) to 4c) shall not apply to the cases specfed n secton 1B. below. 5) All or part of a lmt order, or a trggered stop-lmt order, n ts entrety or part of t, or an ceberg order, n ts entrety or part of t, whch was not matched aganst other orders regstered n the Order Book as aforesad shall be regstered n the Order Book. MKT order that was not matched aganst other orders that are regstered n the Order Book shall be regstered n the Order Book, subject to the provsons of the above subsecton 4b1), as an LMT order lmted by the prce of the last transacton that was carred out wth that securty. If MKT order was only flled n part, the part that was not flled shall be regstered n the Order Book, subject to the provsons of the above subsecton 4b1), as an LMT order lmted by the prce of the last transacton that was carred out wth the part that was flled. If no transactons wth the securty had as yet been carred out durng the Contnuous Tradng Phase, then an MKT order shall be regstered n the Order Book as an order lmted by the openng prce. 6) Orders regstered n the Order Book, excludng trgger pendng orders, shall be carred out n the order of precedence specfed below: a) Buy sde lmt orders wth hgh prce lmts shall have prorty over lmt orders wth lower prce lmts. b) Sale sde lmt orders wth low prce lmts shall have prorty over lmt orders wth hgher prce lmts. c) For orders wth the same prce lmt, buy and sell orders separately, the order of prorty shall be as follows:

32 32 (1) Lmt orders, actvated stop-lmt orders and vsble portons of ceberg orders n order of receved by TASE. For the purpose of ths subsecton (1), the tme at whch a stop-lmt order s actvated and the tme at whch a porton of an ceberg order s converted to the vsble porton shall be consdered as the tme at whch these were receved by TASE. (2) Hdden portons of ceberg orders, accordng to the order n whch they were receved by TASE. 7) The transactons shall be carred out at the prce of the order, whch appeared n the Order Book. 8) Lmt orders and ceberg orders whch were fully executed shall be deleted from the order book. If a lmt order or an ceberg order or a market order was carred out n part, then the part that was not carred out shall reman on the Order Book, subject to the aforementoned, and t shall be carred out accordng to ts precedence as mentoned n the above subsecton 6. 9) At the end of the contnuous tradng phase for each securty, all orders n the Order Book shall be transferred to the pre closng phase. 10) Fll or Kll orders and Immedate or Cancel orders that were not carred out and the parts of fll or kll orders that were not carred out mmedately after the orders were receved by the Stock Exchange shall be canceled and they shall not be entered n the order book. D. The Pre Closng Phase of Tradng 1) Durng ths phase of tradng, no transactons shall be carred out. 2) Durng ths phase of tradng a "base prce for closng trade" shall be determned for each securty. The prce of the last transacton carred out wth the securty n the contnuous tradng phase shall be the base prce for closng trade. If no transactons were carred out durng the contnuous tradng phase, then a prce equal to the openng prce of the securty shall be the base prce for closng trade. 2a) Buy orders wth hgh prce lmts that were submtted n the earler tradng phases, but not executed, shall be transferred to the Pre-closng phase and shall have prorty over buy orders wth the same or lower lmts. Sell orders wth low prce lmts that were submtted n the earler tradng phases, but not executed, shall be transferred to the Pre-closng phase and shall have prorty sell orders wth the same or hgher lmts.

33 33 3) Members may submt to the Exchange only buy and sell orders as follows: a. Lmt order (LMT) b. Iceberg order (ICE) 4) Submtted orders shall be entered n the order book. 5) Preference of orders shall be as follows: a) Buy sde lmt orders wth hgh prce lmts shall have prorty over lmt orders wth lower prce lmts. b) Sale sde lmt orders wth low prce lmts shall have prorty over lmt orders wth hgher prce lmts. c) For orders wth the same prce lmt, buy and sell orders separately, the order of prorty shall be as follows: (1) Lmt orders, stop-lmt orders actvated durng Contnuous tradng and vsble portons of ceberg orders n order receved by TASE. For the purpose of ths subsecton (1), the tme at whch a stop-lmt order s actvated and the tme at whch a porton of an ceberg order s converted to the vsble porton shall be consdered as the tme at whch these were receved by TASE. (2) Hdden portons of ceberg orders, accordng to the order n whch they were receved by TASE 6) a) The Stock Exchange shall calculate and make publc, for each securty separately, the prce and the turnover that would have been determned, f The closng trade sad below had been carred out for that securty on the date of the calculaton, and that accordng to buy and sell orders for that Securty that were receved up to the tme of the calculaton (the sad prce shall be called the "theoretcal closng prce" and the sad turnover shall be called the "theoretcal closng turnover"). The theoretcal closng prce of a securty s the prce, at whch full or partal balance was reached between buy and sell orders, subject to the order of preferences prescrbed n paragraph 5) above, and at whch the turnover s the greatest. If the greatest turnover wth a securty s obtaned at more than one prce, then the prce closest to the base prce of the closng phase shall be the theoretcal closng prce. If full or partal balance of buy and sell orders s not reached, or f no orders at all were submtted for that securty, then the base prce of the closng phase shall be the theoretcal closng prce.

34 34 b) Publcaton of the theoretcal closng prce and the theoretcal closng turnover for each of the securtes shall begn at the begnnng of ther pre closng phase. When an addtonal order for any securty s submtted from that tme on, the updated theoretcal closng prce and updated theoretcal closng turnover shall be calculated and publshed. 7) The move to the closng tradng phase a) The theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex shall be calculated mmedately before the closng tradng phase begns (hereafter: "the closng tradng phase theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex"), and last theoretcal closng prce for each securty. The closng tradng phase theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex shall not be publshed. b) (1) If the closng tradng phase theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by less than 12% from the basc ndex on that day, then closng tradng shall take place. (2) (a) If the closng tradng phase theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by 12% or more, then tradng shall be stopped n shares, n securtes convertble nto shares, n ETN's for whch the underlyng asset s a share basket ndex, n dervatves of shares and n dervatves of share ndexes (hereafter: "closng phase crcut breaker"). (b) Notwthstandng the aforesad, the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may, n consultaton wth the Charman of the Board of Drectors, resume tradng on the same tradng day, f t s hs opnon that under the crcumstances there s justfcaton for dong so. When the decson to resume tradng has been made, the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may decde to change the tradng schedule and notce thereof shall mmedately be made publc on the nformaton dstrbuton systems of the Stock Exchange. A sad resumpton of tradng may be after less than 45 mnutes elapsed snce the notce of the tradng halt had been made. c) A notce that the closng phase crcut breaker was actvated shall be publshed mmedately over the Stock Exchange nformaton dstrbuton system; d) The provsons of subsectons b) and c) above shall not apply on a tradng day after the day on whch the last theoretcal Tel Avv 25 ndex changed by 12% or more from the basc ndex of that day.

35 35 e) (1) If the rate of change n the last theoretcal closng prce of a securty s equal to or lower than the dynamc or the statc threshold determned for t, closng tradng n that securty shall be held accordng to the ordnary tmetable. (2) If the fluctuaton n the last theoretcal closng prce of a securty s hgher than the dynamc or the statc threshold determned for t, prce montorng shall be actvated durng an nterval that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes. (3) After the prce montorng sad n the above subsecton 2) has been concluded, the last theoretcal closng prce of the securty shall agan be calculated accordng to the orders for the securty that were submtted up to the tme of the calculaton. (4) If the fluctuaton n the last theoretcal closng prce of the securty compared to ts bass prce s equal to or lower than the dynamc or the statc threshold determned for t, closng tradng n that securty shall take place after concluson of the prce montorng sad n the above subsecton 2). (5) If the fluctuaton of the last theoretcal closng prce of the securty s hgher than the dynamc or statc threshold determned for that securty, prce montorng shall agan be actvated for that securty durng an nterval that shall be determned randomly and that shall be between 3 and 4 mnutes. (6) When prce montorng has been actvated a second tme, as sad n the above subsecton 5), closng tradng of the securty shall be conducted followng the prce montorng extenson. E. The Closng Phase of Tradng 1) Cancelled 2) At ths tradng phase the buy and sell orders on the order book at the end of the pre closng stage shall be matched for each securty, and a closng tradng prce and a closng tradng turnover shall be determned for each securty. 3) The orders on the order book shall be carred out n the order of preferences prescrbed n subsecton D.5) above and at ther fxed closng prce. 4) a) The Stock Exchange shall calculate the closng tradng prce for each securty separately, n accordance wth the orders that were on the order book at the end of the pre closng phase. If a transacton, whch was ncluded n the calculaton of a sad closng tradng prce, s cancelled, then the General Manager of the Stock Exchange may order the closng prce of that securty to be calculated anew accordng to the provsons of paragraphs 5) and 6) below, and that accordngly the Stock Exchange ndces be calculated anew.

36 36 b) The closng prces shall be calculated, one after the other, for each of the securtes; 5) The closng prce of a securty s the prce, at whch full or partal balance was reached between buy and sell orders, subject to the order of preferences prescrbed n subsecton D.5) above, and at whch the turnover s the greatest. If the greatest turnover wth a securty s obtaned at more than one prce, then the prce closest to the base prce of the closng phase shall be the closng prce. 6) If full or partal balance of buy and sell orders s not reached, or f at the end of the pre closng phase there were no orders at all for that securty, then the closng shall be equal to the base prce of the closng phase and the closng turnover shall be zero. 7) The Stock Exchange shall publsh the closng prce and the closng turnover for each securty. 8) Orders submtted durng the nterval from the begnnng of the closng tradng phase untl the tme when the closng prce for that securty s set shall be rejected. 1A. Notwthstandng the provsons of secton 1 above, tradng n the securtes specfed below shall be carred out as specfed below: A. Canceled. B. In the followng shares, tradng shall be n two phases only pre-openng phase and an openng phase that wll be at a tme to be set by the Board of Drectors (hereafter: "separate openng tradng") : 1) Shares ncluded n the TA-Composte, as defned n Part Seven of the Regulatons, whch are about to be removed from the TA-Composte followng a tradng suspenson, except for one of the reasons detaled n artcle 6.A.(2) n Part Four of the regulatons - shall be traded on a separate openng tradng on the tradng day whch precedes ther removal date, subject to the condton that no closng tradng phase wll take place on that day. 2) Shares ncluded n the TA-Composte, as defned n Part Seven of the Regulatons, whch are about to be removed from the TA-Composte followng a tradng suspenson, except for one of the reasons detaled n artcle 6.A.(2) n Part Four of the regulatons and on the tradng day whch precedes ther removal date, a closng tradng phase should have taken place, but eventually dd not. A separate openng tradng phase n these shares wll take place on the tradng day followng the tradng day whch precedes ther removal date, subject to the condton that no closng tradng phase wll take place on that day. The Board of Drectors decded that the separate openng tradng shall be at 15:30 PM. In the nterm holdays of Pesach and of Sukkot shall be at 14:00.

37 37 3) The submsson of stop-lmt orders s not permtted durng Separate Openng tradng. C.
