Re:
Immediate report on approval of
acquisition of insurance policy
Following
the recurring agreement resolution approved by the Company's general meeting of shareholders on July 12, 2011 (see 6-K filed on
June 6, 2011, and report on results of said general meeting of shareholders filed on July 12, 2011) regarding the Company's entrance
into certain insurance policies covering the liability of directors and officers, including directors and officers who are or might
be considered to be controlling shareholders in the Company, the Company hereby announces that on August 27, 2013, the Audit Committee
and Board of Directors of the Company approved the Company's entrance into an insurance policy effective as of September 1, 2013
and continuing through August 31, 2014. The policy will have a liability limit of up to $15 million US dollars per case and per
period. The Company shall pay an annual premium in the amount of $71,550 US dollars for the period.
The
Audit Committee and Board of Directors of the Company approved the Company's entrance into the insurance policy in light of the
fact that the liability limit and premium amount set in said policy adhere to conditions of the recurring agreement approved by
the general meeting of shareholders of the Company. The Board of Directors believes that such amounts are reasonable considering
the Company's exposure, extent of coverage and market conditions.
