Item A1 -- Approval of Adoption of the 2003 Stock Option Plan. -------------------------------------------------------------- On May 25, 2003 and June 5, 2003, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company, respectively, approved the adoption of the 2003 Stock Option Plan, based on the principles set out below, and empowered the Company's management to finalize the detailed 2003 Stock Option Plan. Among the persons to be granted options under the 2003 Stock Option Plan will be the members of the Board of Directors of Koor (excluding Charles R. Bronfman and Andrew Hauptman, directors who are related to the controlling shareholders) and Jonathan Kolber, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, who beneficially owns more than 5% of the Ordinary Shares. As a result of the above, in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, the 2003 Stock Option Plan must be approved by an Ordinary Resolution of the shareholders of the Company at a general meeting. At the Meeting, the Company will seek to obtain shareholder approval for adoption of the 2003 Stock Option Plan. The Board of Directors recommends to approve the Company's adoption of the 2003 Stock Option Plan. The following are the principle terms of the 2003 Stock Option Plan: o Koor shall grant 1,200,000 options, each exercisable for one Ordinary Share (the "Options"), of which: 50,000 Options shall be granted to each of the members of the Board of Directors of Koor (excluding Charles R. Bronfman and Andrew Hauptman); 175,000 Options shall be granted to Jonathan Kolber, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, who currently does not have any options; up to 450,000 Options shall be granted to other officers and employees of the Koor Group; and 225,000 Options shall be reserved for future distribution to Koor Group officers and employees; o The Options shall be exercisable at NIS 89.7 (the "Exercise Price"), the closing price of the Ordinary Shares on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange on June 4, 2003, the last trading day prior to the date on which the 2003 Stock Option Plan was approved by the Board of Directors of Koor (approximately US$20.5 (which is equivalent to US$4.1 per ADS)); o The Exercise Price shall be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, including, but not limited to, a distribution of dividends; o The Options shall vest over a period of three years in six equal bi-annual calendar year installments, on the last day of each such bi-annual calendar date; o The exercise period shall expire on December 31, 2010; o The 2003 Stock Option Plan shall be limited to 35 persons (in addition to the members of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer who shall be granted Options) and, accordingly, under Israeli securities law, the offer pursuant to the 2003 Stock Option Plan will not be deemed an offer to the public; o According to Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, the Options and the Ordinary Shares into which Options may be exercisable (the "Exercised Shares") shall be subject to a tax black-out period during which Optionholders who exercise their Options and sell their Exercised Shares are required to pay higher taxes than if they sell their Exercised Shares outside the black-out period (the "Tax Black-Out Period"). The Tax Black-Out Period with respect to Options granted during the 2003 calendar year shall end on December 31, 2005; o During the Tax Black-Out Period, the Options and the Exercised Shares shall be held in escrow for the Optionholders' benefit by a trustee appointed by the Company and approved by the Israeli Income Tax Commission; o Optionholders shall not pay the Exercise Price upon exercising their Options, but shall be issued such number of Exercised Shares whose aggregate market price at the time of the exercise shall equal the difference between (i) the sum of (1) the market price at the time of the exercise of the Options multiplied by (2) the number of Options granted to the Optionholder and (ii) the sum of (1) the Exercise Price multiplied by (2) the number of Options granted to the Optionholder. In case of Options exercised prior to the end of the Tax Black-Out Period and Exercised Shares not sold during the Tax Black-Out Period, the number of Exercised Shares issued following the end of the Tax Black-Out Period shall be adjusted in the event of a decrease in the market price of the Ordinary Shares during the Tax Black-Out Period; o In the event of a restructuring of Koor (including, but not limited to, by means of a sale of substantially all of the assets of Koor, a distribution of substantially all of the assets of Koor to its shareholders, a merger, an offer or a settlement), an independent outside expert specializing in economic valuations shall determine the form and amount of the compensation that shall be given to the Optionholders; o The Company shall administer the 2003 Stock Option Plan, and the Board of Directors shall have the power to amend the vesting schedule of certain Options and to allow the continuation of the vesting following termination of employment or tenure of an Optionholder; and o Optionholders shall be solely responsible for the payment of all applicable taxes in connection with the Options and the Exercised Shares. It is therefore proposed that the shareholders adopt the following Ordinary Resolution at the Meeting: "RESOLVED, that the Company adopt the Koor Industries Ltd. 2003 Stock Option Plan, based on the principles set out in the proxy statement, pursuant to which options shall be granted to directors, officers (including the Chief Executive Officer) and other employees of Koor and its affiliates, and that the Company's management shall be empowered to finalize the detailed 2003 Stock Option Plan." The Board of Directors recommends voting FOR adopting the 2003 Stock Option Plan and empowering the Company's management to finalize the detailed 2003 Stock Option Plan.
