          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises hereinafter contained, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1.      Scope of Services

          1.1      The Director shall act as a member of the Board of Directors by participating in meetings of the Board of Directors and providing all services requested of the Directors by MabCure and required pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company and the laws of Nevada (the “Services”).

          1.2      Director shall perform additional services as mutually agreed and in accordance with the instructions of the Board of Directors.

2.      Consideration for Services.

          2.1      Annual Compensation; Grant of Options. As annual compensation for your services rendered as a Director, MabCure shall pay the Director an aggregate annual compensation of US$4,000 payable in arrears in four equal quarterly installments of $1,000 each, subject to deductions required to be made by MabCure under all applicable laws. In the event that the MabCure Board of Directors shall establish committees of the Board of Directors, and you become a member of such a committee, an additional annual payment of $8,000 shall be made for your services on one or more committees of the Board of Directors. As consideration for the provision of the Services, MabCure shall grant you as a Director, 120,000 options to purchase 120,000 shares of common stock of MabCure, at an exercise price of $0.45 (the “Options”). Subject to the approval of the MabCure stock option plan, the Options shall be granted to the Director pursuant to the plan.

          3.1           Each party acknowledges that in connection with its duties hereunder it may be provided with or have access to written information data and/or other confidential material ("the Information") which is proprietary and/or confidential to the other party, and which is so marked proprietary and/or confidential or which it would be reasonable to assume was proprietary or confidential due to the nature of the Information disclosed. Both parties agree to keep confidential all such Information and shall not disclose the same either in whole or in part to any third party without the other party's prior written consent. Information which is already in the public domain or which is known to the receiving party without a breach of this or any other Agreement or any other obligation of confidentiality shall not be treated as confidential for the purposes of this Agreement.

          3.2      Upon termination of this Agreement, the Director shall (a) immediately cease using the Information, (b) promptly return to MabCure all tangible embodiments of the Information, and (c) promptly certify in writing the Director's compliance with this obligation.

All deliverables and Discoveries shall, to the extent possible, be considered works made by the Director for hire for the benefit of MabCure.

7.      Relationship of the Parties.

          Notwithstanding any provision hereof, Director is an independent contractor and not an employee or agent of MabCure, and shall not bind nor attempt to bind MabCure to any contract. Director shall accept any directions issued by MabCure pertaining to the goals to be attained and the results to be achieved but shall be solely responsible for the manner and hours in which Services are performed under this Agreement.

whether arising from breach of contract, warranty, tort, strict liability or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such loss or damage, or if such loss or damage could have been reasonably foreseen.

          8.2      Indemnification. MabCure shall indemnify the Director to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law in connection with any action, suit, or proceeding brought against the Director or threatened to be brought against the Director by reason of him being a Director of MabCure, in accordance with the indemnification procedures set forth in Article 11 of MabCure's Articles of Incorporation.

9.      Miscellaneous

          9.1      Assignment.

Any attempt to do so shall be void.

          9.2 Notices. All notices under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be deemed given when personally delivered, or three days after being sent by prepaid certified or registered mail to the address of the party to be noticed as set forth herein or such other address as such party last provided to the other by written notice.

          9.3      Equitable Relief. Any breach of Sections 3 or 4 will cause irreparable harm to MabCure for which damages would not be an adequate remedy, and, therefore, MabCure will be entitled to injunctive relief with respect thereto in addition to any other remedies.

          9.4      No Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce its rights under this Agreement at any time for any period shall not be construed as a waiver of such rights.

          9.5      Modifications. No changes or modifications or waivers to this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.

          9.6      Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

Any dispute arising from or in connection with this Agreement shall be submitted to binding arbitration to take place in New York pursuant to the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association.
