BlueStar Israel Global Index® (BIGI®): End-Q1 2015 Fact Sheet Index Overview The BlueStar Israel Global Index (’BIGI’) provides a benchmark for investors to track the broadest and deepest universe of Israeli public companies. The index is constructed using BlueStar Indexes’ unique methodology and proprietary database of Israeli and Israeli-linked companies. BIGI includes the largest and most liquid companies as well as mid and small cap companies that display sufficient liquidity for global investors. BIGI is calculated and maintained by Standard & Poor’s based on a methodology developed by BlueStar Indexes and the International Securities Exchange in consultation with Standard & Poor’s. The Index uses a modified capitalization-weighted methodology and is rigorously float-adjusted to exclude corporate cross holdings. Index components are reviewed semi-annually for eligibility, and the weights are reset according to that distribution. The BlueStar Israel Global Index has been created to provide investors with an investable product allowing them to quickly take advantage of both event-driven news and long-term economic trends as the economy and companies of Israel continue to evolve.

    ORMAT TECHNOLOGIES INC MEETING DATE Wed, 06 Nov 2019 13:00 TYPE EGM ISSUE DATE Fri, 25 Oct 2019 MEETING LOCATION 6140 Plumas Street, Reno, NV 89519 CURRENT INDICES PIRC Global SECTOR Electric services COMPANY OVERVIEW Ormat Technologies is a provider of renewable power and energy technology. The Company is based in Reno, Nevada, and has over 150 power plants. MEETING SPECIFIC INFORMATION Ordinary resolutions are approved by simple majority of the votes cast. PROPOSALS ADVICE 1 Board Proposal to Declassify the Board For It is considered that staggered elections do not pursue shareholders’ best interest, as they entrench the board against hostile takeovers. In this sense, the Board’s proposal is welcomed as it will introduce annual election for all directors of the board, which is considered to be best practice. 2 Adjourn Meeting Oppose The Board requests authority to adjourn the special meeting until a later date or dates, if necessary, in order to permit further solicitation of proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to approve the merger. An oppose vote is recommended to any adjournment or postponement of meetings if a sufficient number of votes are present to constitute a quorum. It is considered that where a quorum is present, the vote outcome should be considered representative of shareholder opinion.

    Israel: Anti- Fragile

    I N T E R N AT I O N A L > I S R A E L Israel: Anti- fragile Battered by regional turbulence, Israel’s tech-infused economy has made virtue of handling challenge and adversity. Its legal profession is no exception 29 October 2019 09:30am Dominic Carman Middle East and Africa Corporate Legal tech Thriving in the face of adversity as politics and security play an integral part in everyday life is a default position for Israel. The data backs this up: recent OECD reports describe Israel as stable with strong economic growth: annual GDP has consistently risen by three to four percent over recent years to reach nearly $400bn in 2019. This, despite a protracted leadership battle taking place with two general elections in six months bringing the nation no closer to a conclusive result. Michael Barnea, managing partner of Barnea, Jaffa, Lande & Co, develops the point: ‘The environment is surprisingly robust considering the political instability that we’ve experienced for a considerable time. Investment, both from overseas into Israel and in the local market, is extremely strong and gives every appearance of being confident in the future.’ Despite international law firms being allowed to operate in Israel, they have invariably chosen not to. The legal market is therefore monopolised by domestic players, many of which have grown significantly and the main contributory factor has been a glut of mergers. According to David Tadmor, co-chairman and managing partner of Tadmor Levy, today the largest firm has close to 400 fee- earners, whereas in 2000 it was around 65 lawyers.
