In
June 2017, a lawsuit was filed with the Regional Labor Court in Tel Aviv (the “Tel Aviv Court”) against Emerald Israel,
and other defendants, claiming certain damages in the total amount of approximately $225,000, under the assertion of wrongful
termination by Emerald Israel. We believe these claims to be unsubstantiated and wholly without merit and accordingly filed our
response with the Tel Aviv Court in October of 2017. The dispute was initially heard by the Tel Aviv Court on February 13, 2020.
In a supplemental hearing on February 11, 2021, the plaintiff provided a certified confirmation of payment of approximately $14,668
by the National Insurance Institute of Israel for one month’s prior notice of termination, redemption of 16.8 days of vacation
and severance pay. The plaintiff’s summaries were filed on March 11, 2021, and the defendant’s summaries will be filed
until May 20, 2021.
