The matter will be reviewed and appropriate action will be taken consistent with this Code, other company policies and procedures and applicable law.

2.  Scope

You are subject to this Code if you are a director, officer or employee of MTI Wireless Edge Ltd. or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “MTI”). For our subsidiaries outside of Israel the Code may be supplemented or adapted to reflect applicable local requirements). In addition, this Code applies to your own actions as well as those you may conduct indirectly through relatives, friends or other personal relationships. We also expect our suppliers, vendors, distributors and value added resellers to comply with these ethical standards.

3.  Honest and Ethical Conduct

Each person subject to this Code has the responsibility to act honestly and ethically in conducting activities on behalf of MTI. Your responsibility applies to your interaction with our other directors, officers and employees, and to MTI itself. You are expected to act in good faith and with responsibility, due care, competence and diligence. You should use your independent judgment with respect to questionable behavior and at all times conduct yourself in a manner that meets with our ethical standards.

4.  Compliance with Laws, Rules and Regulations

You are required to comply with all applicable laws, governmental rules and regulations. This includes, but is not limited to regulations relating to the conduct of government tenders and procurement integrity. Although you are not expected to know the details of all applicable laws, rules and regulations, we expect you to be familiar with MTI’s published policies and procedures and to seek advice from our management if you have any questions about whether a legal requirement applies to a particular situation or what conduct may be required to comply with any law, rule or regulation.

5.  Public Disclosures

MTI’s policy is to provide appropriate disclosure in all reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Israel Securities Authority, the London Stock Exchange – AIM, as well as in all other public communications made by MTI.

6.  Insider Trading

Since the shares of MTI are publicly traded, all persons having “inside information” regarding our activities are subject to applicable laws and regulations against “insider trading”. If you have access to material, non-public information concerning MTI, you are not permitted to use or share that information for stock trading purposes, or for any other purpose except the conduct of our business. All non-public information about MTI should be considered confidential information. Insider trading, which is the use of material, non-public information for personal financial benefit or to “tip” others who might make an investment decision on the basis of this information, is not only unethical but also illegal. The prohibition on insider trading applies not only to MTI’s securities, but also to securities of other companies if you learn of material non-public information about these companies in the course of your duties for MTI. Violations of this prohibition against “insider trading” may subject you to criminal or civil liability, in addition to disciplinary action by MTI.

7.  Anti-Bribery

MTI is committed to conducting business with the highest ethical principles, including compliance with anti-bribery standards. We maintain a zero tolerance policy towards corruption. We are active in numerous markets, requiring compliance with the anti-bribery laws of many jurisdictions. This includes applicable Israeli law, such as Israel’s Criminal Code and Israel’s ratification of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Convention on Combating Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions and the U.N. Convention Against Corruption. There are also other anti-bribery laws throughout the world which apply in the countries in which we do business. Our policy regarding anti-bribery compliance, as well as business entertainment and gifts, is contained in our Anti-Bribery Compliance Policy, which can be found on MTI’s website: http://www.mtiwe.com under “About – Ethics and Conduct”.

8.  Fair Dealing

You should deal fairly with our suppliers, competitors and employees as well as others with whom MTI does business. You should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentations or any other unfair-dealing practice.

9.  Conflicts of Interest

You should handle ethically any actual or apparent conflict of interest between your personal and business relationships. Conflicts of interest are prohibited as a matter of policy. A “conflict of interest” exists when a person’s private interest interferes, or might reasonably be considered to interfere, in any way with the interests of MTI. A conflict situation arises if you take actions or have interests that interfere with your ability to perform your work for MTI objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also may arise if you, or a member of your family or other person affiliated with you as defined in Section 9.D below, receives an improper personal benefit as a result of your position with MTI.

If you become aware of any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest, you should report it promptly to a member of the compliance committee, our Chief Compliance Officer, MTI’s chairman of the audit committee or as otherwise provided in the Whistle-blower process attached to this Code.

The following are examples of standards applying to certain common situations where potential conflicts of interest may arise. These examples should also be read in light of indirect violations as described in Section 9.D below.

1. Gifts, Entertainment and Other Personal Benefits.

Personal gifts, entertainment or other benefits may only be offered or accepted by persons doing business with or on behalf of MTI if done in a reasonable way in the ordinary course of the business relationship. In addition, the frequency and cost of any such gifts, entertainment or personal benefits should be in nominal amounts/value only so as not to affect, or appear to affect, the ability to exercise independent business judgment. See also the business entertainment and gifts provisions in our Anti-Bribery Compliance Policy referred to in Section 7 above.

1. Outside Business Activities

The determination of whether any outside position an employee may hold is improper will depend on the facts and circumstances of each case. Your involvement in trade associations, professional societies, and charitable and similar organizations normally does not create a conflict of interest. However, if those activities are likely to take substantial time from or otherwise conflict with your responsibilities to MTI, you should obtain prior approval from your supervisor. For a director, employment or affiliation with an organization with which MTI does business or competes must be fully disclosed to our Board of Directors and must satisfy any other standards established by applicable law, rules (including rules of any applicable stock exchange) or regulation and any other corporate governance guidelines that MTI may establish.

1. Corporate Opportunities

You are prohibited from exploiting for your personal advantage, opportunities that are discovered through the use of company resources, information or position, unless all required approvals are obtained. Similarly, you may not compete with MTI. You owe a duty to advance MTI’s legitimate interests whenever the opportunity to do so arises.

1. Indirect Violation

Any such relationship should be fully disclosed to a  member of the compliance committee, our Chief Compliance Officer or MTI’s chairman of the audit committee (in the case of a director to the Board of Directors), in order to determine whether the relationship is inappropriate based upon the standards of this Code.

10.   Political Activity

MTI policy is not to promote specific political affiliations. However, you are free to engage in political activities on your personal time so long as those activities do not interfere with your work for MTI, and you do not involve or associate MTI in those activities in any way.
