PROXY STATEMENT

2016 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Q: When and where is the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders being held?

A:	The Annual Meeting will be held on September 13, 2016, at 2:30 p.m. Israel time, at our offices at 22 Hanagar Street, Neve Ne’eman Industrial Zone B, Hod Hasharon, Israel.

Q: Who can attend the Annual Meeting?

Any shareholder may attend. Current proof of ownership of the Company’s shares, as well as a form of personal photo identification, must be presented in order to be admitted to the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you must bring a current brokerage statement or other proof of ownership with you to the Annual Meeting.

Q: Who is entitled to vote?

A:	Only holders of record of ordinary shares at the close of business on August 10, 2016, the Record Date for the Annual Meeting, are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Joint holders of ordinary shares should note that, pursuant to Article 32.4 of the Company’s Articles of Association, the right to vote at the Annual Meeting will be conferred exclusively upon the “senior” among the joint owners attending the Annual Meeting, in person or by proxy, and for this purpose, seniority will be determined by the order in which the names appear in the Company’s register of shareholders.

HOW TO VOTE YOUR SHARES

Q: How do I vote?

A:	You may vote by mail. You can do this by completing your proxy card or voting instruction card and returning it in the enclosed, prepaid and addressed envelope. If you return a signed card but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted as recommended by the Board.

You may vote through the Israel Securities Authority’s electronic voting system. Following recent legislative changes, the Israel Securities Authority has set up an electronic voting system for shareholder meetings of publicly-listed Israeli companies via its MAGNA online platform. Following a registration process, you will be able to vote your shares through such system no later than six hours before the time fixed for the Annual Meeting.

You may vote in person. Ballots will be passed out at the Annual Meeting to anyone who wants to vote at the Annual Meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the enclosed proxy card or proof of identification. If your shares are held directly in your name, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. However, if your shares are held in street name, you must first obtain a signed proxy from the record holder (that is, your bank, broker or other nominee) in order to vote at the Annual Meeting.

“Street name” holders may be able to vote by phone or through an Internet website in accordance with instructions included on their proxy cards. If you hold your shares in “street name” (e.g., through a broker, bank or other nominee), then you received this proxy statement from the nominee, along with the nominee’s proxy card, which includes voting instructions and instructions on how to change your vote. Because a “street name” holder is not a shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares directly at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares directly, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

Q:	What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and holding shares in “street name”?

A:	Many Allot shareholders hold their shares through a bank, broker or other nominee rather than directly in their own name. As explained in this proxy statement, there are some distinctions between shares held of record and shares owned in “street name.”

Shareholders of Record

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company of New York, New York, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. In such case, these proxy materials are being sent directly to you. As the shareholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly or to vote in person at the Annual Meeting.

“Street Name” Beneficial Owners

If your shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, they are considered to be held in “street name” and you are the beneficial owner. If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your bank, broker or nominee which is considered, with respect to those shares, the shareholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct the bank, broker or nominee how to vote your shares for the Annual Meeting. You also may attend the Annual Meeting. However, because you are not the shareholder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the Annual Meeting, unless you first obtain a “legal proxy” from the record holder (that is, your bank, broker or other nominee) giving you the right to vote the shares. Your bank, broker or nominee has enclosed a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the bank, broker or nominee regarding how to vote your shares.

Brokers that hold shares in “street name” for clients typically have authority to vote on “routine” proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. The only item on the Annual Meeting agenda that may be considered routine is Proposal 8 relating to the reappointment of Allot’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016; however, we cannot be certain whether this will be treated as a routine matter since our proxy statement is prepared in compliance with the Israeli Companies Law rather than the rules applicable to domestic U.S. reporting companies. Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee to instruct its bank or broker how to vote its shares, if the shareholder wants its shares to count for the proposals.

Q: Does Allot recommend I vote in advance of the Annual Meeting?

A:	Yes. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, Allot recommends that you vote your shares in advance so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

Q: If I vote by proxy, can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

A:	Yes. You may change your proxy instructions at any time prior to the vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you may do this by:

filing a written notice of revocation with the Secretary of the Company, delivered to the Company’s address above;

granting a new proxy card or new voting instruction card bearing a later date; or

attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person (attendance at the Annual Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request).

If you hold shares through a bank, broker or other nominee, you must contact that firm to revoke any prior voting instructions.

Q: How are my votes cast when I submit a proxy vote?

A:	When you submit a proxy vote, you appoint Shraga Katz, Shmuel Arvatz and Rael Kolevsohn, or any of them, as your representative(s) at the Annual Meeting. Your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting as you have instructed.

Upon the receipt of a properly submitted proxy card, which is received in time (by 2:30 p.m., Israel Time, on September 12, 2016, 24 hours prior to the Annual Meeting) and not revoked prior to the Annual Meeting, or which is presented to the chairperson at the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote the ordinary shares represented thereby at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the Board’s recommendations as indicated in the instructions outlined on the proxy card.

Q: What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card?

A:	It means that you have multiple accounts at the transfer agent or with brokers. Please sign and return all proxy cards to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

ABOUT THE VOTING PROCEDURE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Q: What constitutes a quorum?

A:	To conduct business at the Annual Meeting, two or more shareholders must be present, in person or by proxy, representing not less than 25% of the ordinary shares outstanding as of the Record Date, that is, a quorum must be present.

Ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a bank, broker or other holder of record holding shares for a beneficial owner attends the Annual Meeting but does not vote on a particular proposal because that holder does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present in determining if a quorum is present.

Q: What happens if a quorum is not present?

If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned to the same day at the same time the following week, or to such day and at such time and place as the Chairman of the meeting may determine with the consent of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and voting on the question of adjournment.

Q: How will votes be counted?

A:	Each outstanding ordinary share is entitled to one vote. The Company’s Articles of Association do not provide for cumulative voting.

Q:	What vote is required to approve each proposal presented at the Annual Meeting?

A:	Each of Proposals 1, 4, 5 and 8 requires that a simple majority of the ordinary shares of the Company voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting on the matter presented for passage be voted “FOR” the adoption of the proposal.

Proposal 2 (reelection of Steve Levy as an Outside Director) requires, in addition to the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the ordinary shares of the Company voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting on the proposal, that either: (1) a simple majority of shares voted at the Annual Meeting, excluding the shares of controlling shareholders and of shareholders who have a personal interest in the approval of the resolution, other than a personal interest in the appointment that is not as a result of relationship with the controlling shareholder, be voted “FOR” the proposed resolution, or (2) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and of shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the resolution voted against approval of the resolution does not exceed two percent of the outstanding voting power in the Company.

Each of Proposal 3 (approval of the compensation policy for officers and directors of the Company), Proposal 6 (approval of an amendment to the employment terms of Andrei Elefant, the Company’s CEO) and Proposal 7 (approval of the grant of 100,000 RSUs to Andrei Elefant) requires, in addition to the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the ordinary shares of the Company voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting on the proposal, that either: (1) a simple majority of shares voted at the Annual Meeting, excluding the shares of controlling shareholders and of shareholders who have a personal interest in the approval of the resolution, be voted “FOR” the proposed resolution, or (2) the total number of shares of non-controlling shareholders and of shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the resolution voted against approval of the resolution does not exceed two percent of the outstanding voting power in the Company.

The term “controlling shareholder” means a shareholder having the ability to direct the activities of a company, other than by virtue of being an office holder. A shareholder is presumed to be a Controlling Shareholder if the shareholder holds 50% or more of the voting rights in a company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the company or its general manager.

The Israeli Companies Law requires that each shareholder voting on the proposal indicate whether or not the shareholder has a personal interest in the proposal. Otherwise, the shareholder is not eligible to vote on this proposal. Under the Israeli Companies Law, a “personal interest” of a shareholder (i) includes a personal interest of the shareholder and any member of the shareholder’s family, family members of the shareholder’s spouse, or a spouse of any of the foregoing, or a personal interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder (or such family member) serves as a director or chief executive officer, owns at least 5% of the shares or has the right to appoint a director or chief executive officer, and (ii) excludes an interest arising solely from the ownership of our Ordinary Shares. Under the Israeli Companies Law, in the case of a person voting by proxy for another person, “personal interest” includes a personal interest of either the proxy holder or the shareholder granting the proxy, whether or not the proxy holder has discretion how to vote. If you do not have a personal interest in this matter, you may assume that using the form of proxy enclosed herewith will not create a personal interest.

It is highly unlikely that any of the Company’s public shareholders has a personal interest in any of the proposals. If you think you may have a personal interest, please contact the Company’s General Counsel for guidance at +972-9-761-9200; if you hold your shares in “street name,” you may also contact the representative managing your account, who could contact us on your behalf.

On all matters considered at the Annual Meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” the matter.

Q: How will my shares be voted if I do not provide instructions on the proxy card?

A:	If you are the record holder of your shares and do not specify on your proxy card how you want to vote your shares, your shares will be voted in favor of the proposals in accordance with the recommendation of the Board:

“FOR” the reelection of Shraga Katz as a Class I director and Chairman of the Board, to serve until the 2019 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his office is vacated in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association or the Israeli Companies Law and to receive compensation for his services as Chairman as previously approved by the Company’s shareholders.

“FOR” the reelection of Steve Levy as an Outside Director of the Company, to serve for a term of three years commencing as of the end of his current term, or until his office is vacated in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association or the Israeli Companies Law.

“FOR” the approval of the compensation policy for officers and directors of the Company for the years 2016-2018.

“FOR” the approval of the amendment to the equity compensation provided to the Company’s directors to grant each director 10,000 RSUs as of every third annual general meeting following his or her initial election.

Subject to the approval of Proposal 1, “FOR” the approval of a one-time grant of 25,000 RSUs to Shraga Katz.

“FOR” the approval of the amendment to the employment terms of Andrei Elefant, the Company’s CEO, to provide, among other things, that the CEO shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus from the Company subject to the Company’s achievement of certain pre-established targets.

“FOR” the approval of a one-time grant of 100,000 RSUs to Andrei Elefant.

“FOR” the approval of the reappointment of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, a member of Ernst & Young Global, as Allot’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016 and until the next annual meeting of shareholders, and to authorize the Board, upon recommendation of the audit committee, to fix the remuneration of said independent registered public accounting firm.

In accordance with the best judgment of the named proxies on any other matters properly brought before the annual meeting and any postponement(s) or adjournment(s) thereof.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares and do not specify how you want to vote, your shares will be included in determining the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting, but will not be considered as present and entitled to vote on any matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held of record by a bank, broker, or other nominee, we urge you to give instructions to your bank, broker, or other nominee as to how you wish your shares to be voted so you may participate in the shareholder voting on these important matters.

HOW TO FIND VOTING RESULTS

Q: Where do I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

A:	We plan to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting and to report the final voting results following the Annual Meeting in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K that we will furnish to the SEC.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

Q: Who will bear the costs of solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting?

A: The Company will bear the costs of solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. In addition to solicitation by mail, directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies from shareholders by telephone, personal interview or otherwise. Such directors, officers and employees will not receive additional compensation, but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with such solicitation. Brokers, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians have been requested to forward soliciting material to the beneficial owners of ordinary shares held of record by them, and such custodians will be reimbursed by the Company for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The Company may also retain an independent contractor to assist in the solicitation of proxies. If retained for such services, the costs will be paid by the Company.

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL OF COMPENSATION POLICY FOR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF THE

COMPANY FOR 2016-2018

Background

In 2013, the shareholders of the Company approved the compensation policy for the Company’s officers and directors (the “Compensation Policy”) for 2013-2015. Under the Israeli Companies Law, every office holder’s terms of compensation – including fixed remuneration, bonuses, equity compensation, retirement or termination payments, indemnification, liability insurance and the grant of an exemption from liability – must comply with the compensation policy, and must be approved by the compensation committee and the Board. In addition, the terms of compensation of directors, the chief executive officer, and any employee or service provider who is considered a controlling shareholder must also be approved separately by the shareholders of the company, after the approval by the compensation committee and the Board.

The Israeli Companies Law requires the board to reevaluate the compensation policy from time to time, and upon any material change in the circumstances that existed at the time the policy was formulated; the compensation policy must be reviewed and re-approved at least once every three years. The compensation policy must be recommended by the compensation committee, approved by the board and approved by the shareholders, in that order.

Our compensation and nomination committee has reviewed and revised our Compensation Policy based upon the factors set forth in the Israeli Companies Law. Our Board then considered and approved the Compensation Policy, following the Board’s own examination of the compensation factors set forth in the Israeli Companies Law, and is recommending that shareholders approve the Compensation Policy at the Annual Meeting. If approved, the Compensation Policy shall serve as the Company’s compensation policy for all of its officers and directors following the date of the Annual Meeting.

Summary of the Compensation Policy

The following is a summary of the Compensation Policy and is qualified by reference to the full text thereof, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement as Exhibit A-1.

Objectives: To attract, motivate and retain highly experienced personnel who will provide leadership for Allot’s success and enhance shareholder value, and to promote for each executive officer an opportunity to advance in a growing organization.

Compensation instruments: Includes base salary; benefits and perquisites; cash bonuses; equity-based awards; and retirement and termination arrangements.

Ratio between fixed and variable compensation: Allot aims to balance the mix of fixed compensation (base salary, benefits and perquisites) and variable compensation (cash bonuses and equity-based awards) pursuant to the ranges set forth in the Compensation Policy in order, among other things, to tie the compensation of each executive officer to Allot’s financial and strategic achievements and enhance the alignment between the executive officer’s interests and the long-term interests of Allot and its shareholders.

Internal compensation ratio: Allot will target a ratio between overall compensation of the executive officers and the average and median salary of the other employees of Allot, as set forth in the Compensation Policy, to ensure that levels of executive compensation will not have a negative impact on work relations in Allot.

Base salary, benefits and perquisites: The Compensation Policy provides guidelines and criteria for determining base salary, benefits and perquisites for executive officers.

Cash bonuses: Allot’s policy is to allow annual cash bonuses, which may be awarded to executive officers pursuant to the guidelines and criteria, including caps, set forth in the Compensation Policy.

“Clawback”: In the event of an accounting restatement, Allot shall be entitled to recover from current executive officers bonus compensation in the amount of the excess over what would have been paid under the accounting restatement, with a three-year look-back.

Equity-based awards: Allot’s policy is to provide equity-based awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock units and other forms of equity, which may be awarded to executive officers pursuant to the guidelines and criteria, including minimum vesting period, set forth in the Compensation Policy.

Retirement and termination: The Compensation Policy provides guidelines and criteria for determining retirement and termination arrangements of executive officers, including limitations thereon.

Exculpation, indemnification and insurance: The Compensation Policy provides guidelines and criteria for providing directors and executive officers with exculpation, indemnification and insurance.

Directors: The Compensation Policy provides guidelines for the compensation of our directors in accordance with applicable regulations promulgated under the Israeli Companies Law, and for equity-based awards that may be granted to directors pursuant to the guidelines and criteria, including minimum vesting period, set forth in the Compensation Policy.

Applicability: The Compensation Policy will apply to all compensation agreements and arrangements that will be approved after the date on which the Compensation Policy is approved by the shareholders.

Review: The compensation and nomination committee and the Board of Directors of Allot shall review and reassess the adequacy of the Compensation Policy from time to time, as required by the Israeli Companies Law.

Proposed Resolution

You are requested to adopt the following resolution:

“3. RESOLVED, to approve the Compensation Policy for Officers and Directors for the years 2016-2018, as set forth in Exhibit A-1 to the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting.”

PROPOSAL 4

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO EQUITY COMPENSATION PROVIDED TO THE

COMPANY’S DIRECTORS TO GRANT EACH DIRECTOR 10,000 RSUs AS OF EVERY

THIRD ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING FOLLOWING INITIAL ELECTION

Background

As previously approved by our shareholders, we grant to each director options to purchase 30,000 ordinary shares as of every third annual general meeting following his or her initial election, provided that he or she is reelected at such annual general meeting.

We hereby propose to revise this arrangement and, instead, to grant each director 10,000 RSUs with an exercise price of NIS 0.10 per unit as of every third annual general meeting following his or her initial election, provided that he or she is reelected at such annual general meeting.

Such RSUs will vest ratably over a period of three years, such that 1/12 of the RSUs will vest and become exercisable at the end of each three-month period from the date of their grant, with the vesting of such RSUs accelerated upon certain mergers and acquisitions involving the Company. All such RSUs will be granted under our then-current stock option plan. If this Proposal 4 is approved, we will make a conforming amendment to our 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan to reflect the change described in this Proposal 4.

The Company’s compensation and nomination committee recommended to the Board that the Company amend the equity compensation provided to the Company’s directors as described above.

The Israeli Companies Law requires that this grant be approved by the compensation and nomination committee, the Board and the shareholders of the Company, in that order. The Company’s compensation and nomination committee and the Board have approved the compensation described above as being consistent with the Compensation Policy, and the proposed compensation now requires approval by the Company’s shareholders.

Proposed Resolution

You are requested to adopt the following resolution:

“4. RESOLVED, that the amendment to the equity compensation provided to the Company’s directors to grant each director 10,000 RSUs as of every third annual general meeting following his or her initial election, as described in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, is hereby approved.”

Exhibit A-1

Allot Communications Ltd. (“Allot”)

Amended and Restated Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors

(“Compensation Policy”)

Preamble

This document states the terms of the Allot’s Compensation Policy for its Executive Officers and Directors.

The Compensation Policy is designed to motivate our Executive Officers to drive Allot’s business and financial short and long term goals and to reward significantly on sustainable performance. Accordingly, the structure of Allot’s Compensation Policy ties the compensation for each Executive Officer, to Allot’s financial and strategic goals and achievements.

For purposes of this policy, “Executive Officers” shall mean “Office Holders” as such term is defined in the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (as may be amended from time to time) (the “Companies Law”), excluding, unless otherwise expressly indicated, Allot’s non-executive directors.

The effective date of this policy is the date of its approval by the Company’s shareholders. This policy will apply to any compensation determined after its effective date and will not, and is not intended to, apply to or deemed to amend employment and compensation terms of Executive Officers existing prior to such date.

The adoption of this policy will not grant any of the Company’s Directors and Executive Officers a right to receive any elements of compensation set forth in this compensation policy. The elements of compensation to which a Director or Executive Officer will be entitled will be exclusively those that are determined specifically in relation to him or her in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

A change in the compensation package of an Executive Officer which reports to the CEO, which results in an increase of such Executive Officer's total compensation by no more than 10% per calendar year, may be approved solely by the CEO, provided each of the elements of compensation of such Executive Officer will continue to meet the requirements of the Compensation Policy.

2.	Compensation policy goals

Allot’s goals in setting the Compensation Policy for the Executive Officers is to attract, motivate and retain highly experienced personnel who will provide leadership for Allot’s success and enhance stockholder value, and to promote for each Executive Officer an opportunity to advance in a growing organization. The primary goals of the Compensation Policy are, therefore:

2.1

Pay for performance

To closely align the interests of the Executive Officers with those of Allot’s stockholders in order to enhance stockholder value;

To offer a collaborative workplace environment where each Executive Officer has the opportunity to impact Allot’s long-term success;

To provide increased rewards for superior individual and corporate performance, and substantially reduced or no rewards for average or inadequate performance.

2.2

Risk management

To ensure that while a significant portion of each Executive Officer’s total compensation is at risk and tied to the achievement of financial, corporate, functional performance and other goals established by the Board of Directors, overall risk taking is managed and maintained;

To minimize any personal incentives for taking high-risks that might potentially imperil the underlying value of Allot.

3.	Compensation elements

Allot aims to provide its Executive Officers with a structured compensation package, including competitive salaries and benefits, performance-motivating cash payout and equity incentive programs. Allot’s Executive Officer’s compensation package is composed of the following elements:

Base salary;

Benefits and perquisites;

Cash bonus;

Equity compensation;

Retirement and termination of service arrangements.

4.	Base Salary (or Fee)

A competitive base salary (or fee) is essential to Allot’s ability to attract and retain highly skilled professionals in the long term. The base salary will vary between Executive Officers, and will be individually determined according to their performance, educational background, prior business experiences, aptitude, qualifications, role, personal responsibilities and taking into account external salary benchmarking for the specific role using a peer-group of companies. Peer-group companies will be carefully selected to provide an appropriate comparative model. Peer-group companies will be selected based on appropriate similarities taking into account factors such as market capitalization, type of industry, location of listing, level of revenues, number of employees, locations, relevance of such factors to the particular executive role being compared and other factors that will be considered relevant to the comparison. Therefore, Allot seeks to establish such base salary which will allow Allot to compete for, and retain, senior executive talent worldwide.

A - 2

To that end, the peer-group companies will be selected and approved by Allot’s compensation committee, according to part or all of the following characteristics:

Companies that compete with the company for executive talent;

Companies that are direct competitors of the company;

Companies with a similar revenue turnover as that of the Company;

Companies with a similar market cap as that of the Company;

Geographical considerations.

In the event that the services of the Executive Officer are provided via a personal management company and not by the Executive Officer directly as an employee of Allot, the fees paid to such personal management company (or unincorporated legal person) shall reflect, to the extent determined by Allot in the applicable service agreement, the base salary and the benefits and perquisites (plus applicable taxes such as Value Added Tax), in accordance with the guidelines of the Compensation Policy.

In addition, Executive Officers may be awarded a fixed one-time cash payment upon recruitment.

5.	Benefits and perquisites

Benefits and perquisites for Allot’s Executive Officers will be comparable to customary competitive market entitlements. Certain benefits and perquisites are set forth in order to comply with legal requirements, while others serve as an additional component of the Executive Officer compensation package to attract and retain highly skilled professionals at Allot.

5.1

Benefits and perquisites which are required or facilitated under local laws or customary in the relevant jurisdiction may include, inter alia, the following:

Vacation of up to 25 days per annum;

Sick days of up to 18 days per annum (or as required by law);

Annual convalescence pay as required by law;

Payments to pension funds or other types of pension schemes (e.g. managers’ insurance programs);

Disability Insurance;

Payments to an Advanced Study fund as afforded by law;

Housing (in relevant markets);

Health coverage plans and medical expenses.

A - 3

Such benefits and perquisites may vary depending on geographic location and other circumstances.

In certain countries, the above Benefits will be increased (when applicable) to meet statutory minimum levels.

5.2

Additional benefits intend to complement cash compensation and offer non-monetary rewards to the Executive Officers, and may include, inter alia, the following benefits:

Company cellular phone and related expenses;

Communication equipment and related expenses;

Travel and or car allowance and or Company car and related expenses;

Education allowances;

Subscriptions to relevant literature.

Memberships in statutory and professional organizations

Such additional benefits will not surpass in value 25% percent of the base salary of any Executive Officer.

6.	Retirement and termination of service arrangements

Providing certain retirement and/or termination benefits, is designed to attract and motivate highly skilled professionals to join Allot and should also contribute in retaining its current Executive Officers.

The retirement and termination of service arrangements, shall consider the circumstances of such retirement or termination, the term of service or employment of the Executive Officer, his/her compensation package during such period, Allot’s performance during such period and the Executive Officer’s contribution to Allot achieving its goals and/or maximization of its profits.

The retirement and/or termination benefits may include the following benefits:

Advance notice - advance notice upon termination of employment for a certain period of time, which in any case will not exceed a term of 6 months. During such period of time, the Executive Officer may be required to continue his active employment with Allot.

Severance pay - all Israeli Executive Officers are subject to the provisions of Section 14 of the Israeli Severance Pay Law. Accordingly, Allot will disburse an amount equivalent to 8.33% of the monthly salary (or any other amount required by applicable law) towards severance pay liability in lieu of paying the full amount of severance pay upon termination of employment.

Transition period – Executive Officers may receive up to 6 months of base salary and benefits (i.e., excluding bonuses and equity based compensation), taking into account the period of service or employment of the Executive Officer, his/her service and employment conditions in the course of such period, Allot’s performance during such period, the contribution of the Executive Officer to the achievement of Allot’s targets and profits and the circumstances of the termination of employment. The Executive Officer may not be required to continue his active employment with Allot during this period.

A - 4

Health insurance for US or other Executive Officers - payment for up to 6 months of post-termination health insurance upon termination of employment.

7.	Cash Bonuses

The cash bonus component aims to ensure that Allot’s Executive Officers are aligned in achieving Allot’s strategic and financial objectives. Cash bonuses are, therefore, determined based on both the financial results of Allot, as well as individual performance. Cash bonuses are rewarded with distinguishable terms to the following different Executive Officer populations:

7.1

CEO

7.1.1

The payout formula for the CEO of Allot is designed to drive performance and motivation of the CEO, while maintaining a firm risk management mechanism.

7.1.2

The payout formula will include the following types of measures that will be calculated separately:

(i)

Company Performance Measures (financial and operational): Such as revenues, operating income, booking, income before tax and interest (may be set on GAAP or Non- GAAP basis, according to the discretion of the Board of Directors), etc, measured against the targets of the annual budget of the Company for the relevant year (the "Targets"). The weight of Company performance will constitute at least 70% of the annual target bonus (i.e. bonus for 100% achievement of Targets).

(ii)

Individual Performance Measures: These measures will be defined at the beginning of each fiscal year by the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors and may include quantitative measures and/or qualitative measures that are measurable. The weight of these individual performance measures will constitute the balance of the annual target bonus.

7.1.3

Discretionary component - Based on evaluation of the CEO's performance and contribution to the Company’s success, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors may grant the CEO with an additional amount of up to 3 monthly base salaries of the CEO. In any event, the total annual bonus for the CEO will not exceed the maximum bonus opportunity set forth in Section 7.3 below.

A - 5

7.2

Executive Officers Reporting to the CEO

7.2.1

For Executive Officers reporting to the CEO, the payout formula will be similar to the payout formula described above for the CEO, with the weight of Company performance measures constituting at least 50% of the target bonus and the remainder will constitute individual performance measures and/or evaluation of performance at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors.

7.2.2

Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors will have full discretion to determine the actual bonus payout and increase the actual bonus payout based, among other things, on additional considerations relevant to the performance and objectives of the Company and the relevant Executive Officer, including non-measurable criteria. In any event, the total annual bonus will not exceed the maximum bonus opportunity set forth in Section 7.3 below.

7.3

Maximum bonus opportunity

7.3.1

The annual cash bonus of the CEO shall not exceed in any given year 150% of the CEO’s annual base salary.

7.3.2

The annual cash bonus of any other Executive Officer shall not exceed in any given year 100% of the Executive Officer’s annual base salary.

7.4

Incentive Plan to sales and marketing Executive Officers

7.4.1

The overall compensation of the sales Executive Officers is specifically designed to motivate their performance. Therefore, the variable element of their compensation (with an emphasis on sales commissions they receive, as will be defined below) is relatively larger when compared to the variable element of other Executive Officers’ compensation, whereas the fixed element of their compensation is smaller.

7.4.2

The annual sales incentive plan for each sales and marketing Executive Officer shall be determined as follows:

Executive officer’s targets will be set at the beginning of each year (the “Sales Targets”). Achieving up to 100% of Sales Targets may correspond to up to 100% of the annual base salary of the Executive Officer.

The annual sales incentive payable to sales and marketing Executive Officers is capped at 250% of their annual base salary.

Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the Compensation Committee and the BOD will have full discretion to determine the sales incentives or other bonus payout and to increase the actual sales incentives or other bonus payout based, among others things, on additional considerations relevant to the performance and objectives of the Company and the relevant Executive Officer, including non-measurable criteria. In any event, the total annual sales incentives and bonuses will not exceed the cap stated in this Section 7.4.2 above.

A - 6

7.5

Adjustment of Targets and Goals

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors may approve certain adjustments to the Targets, Sales Targets and goals that were set at the beginning of the year in the event of material changes in the business environment of Allot, such as a re-organization of Allot, mergers, acquisitions, asset and/or business transfers, and/or material changes to the global business environment in which Allot operates.

7.6

Bonus for an extraordinary transaction or effort

In addition to the bonus payout formulas and to the maximum bonus opportunity as defined in Section 7.3 and Section 7.4 above, when an extraordinary transaction or effort is expected to take place (for example: a merger, acquisition, spin-off, a specific task), and subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, a bonus scheme based on measurable and objective criteria may be defined with respect to all or some of the Executive Officers, with predetermined targets related to the transaction, and a payout cap of 50% of the Executive Officers’ annual base salary.

7.7

Change of control retention grant

A retention grant may be paid, at the full discretion of the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors, following an event resulting in the majority of the voting power of Allot being transferred, whether by way of merger, reorganization, acquisition etc. If such an event occurs, Allot may offer a retention bonus to Executive Officers of up to 100% of annual base salary.

7.8

Payout in cash or equity based compensation

The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors will have full discretion to convert a portion of an Executive Officer’s annual cash bonus, in lieu of cash, into stock options or restricted stock units and to specify their vesting (and other) terms.

A - 7

7.9

Partial bonus payout

Subject to the conditions and limitations of this Section 7, an Executive Officer that is employed or provides services to the Company for only a portion of any year may be entitled to receive the pro-rata portion of any bonus described above, which will be calculated relatively to the period during which the Executive Officer was employed or provided services to the Company out of the entire calendar year.

8.	Equity-based awards

Allot’s equity-based awards are aimed at enhancing the alignment between the Executive Officers’ interests and the long term interests of Allot and its shareholders, and to promote the retention of Executive Officers for longer terms.

Considering the potential for appreciation in the value of Allot’s stock in public trading markets as Allot grows, such element of compensation is regarded as having long-term incentive value in the recipients’ hands. In addition, since these equity-based awards are structured to vest over several years, their incentive value to recipients is aligned with longer-term strategic plans.

The equity awards may be in a form of one or more of various types of equity-based instruments, which may include stock options and restricted stock units in different weights. The weight of each of the equity-based instruments will be determined periodically by Allot’s Compensation Committee.

Allot may consider arrangements which will enable optimal tax planning for the Executive Officers.

8.1

Executive Officers’ equity-based awards

Equity-based awards may be granted upon recruitment of an executive officer or from time to time, and while taking into consideration, inter alia, the educational background, prior business experiences, aptitude, qualifications, role, and personal responsibilities of the Executive Officer.

The equity-based awards which may be granted to an Executive Officer, will not exceed in value (based on accepted valuation methods), on the date of grant, per vesting annum, the following amounts:

CEO – $1,000,000;

Chairman – $500,000;

Other Executive Officers – $500,000.

However, the aforementioned restriction will not include a cash bonus which was converted into equity-based compensation as described above.

A - 8

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors also considered setting a cap on value for equity based compensation at the time of exercise and concluded that this would not be advisable for Allot.

Such equity-based awards shall vest over a minimum period of 2 to 4 years.

The equity-based awards will expire within 10 years as of their grant date.

8.2

Acceleration of equity-based awards

Pursuant to the occurrence of certain events, such as a change of control or other corporate transaction (as defined in the applicable equity incentive plan) and in accordance with the original terms of the grant of the equity-based awards, the vesting of up to 100% of the unvested equity-based awards granted to an Executive Officer may be accelerated.

9.	Overall compensation - Ratio between fixed and variable compensation

We believe that the Compensation Policy must motivate our Executive Officers to drive Allot’s business and financial results and is designed to reward significantly on sustainable performance over the long term. Accordingly, the structure of Allot’s Compensation Policy is established to tie the compensation of each Executive Officer, to Allot’s financial and strategic achievements and to enhance the alignment between the Executive Officers’ interests with the long term interests of Allot and its shareholders.

With the above considerations in mind, Allot will target a ratio between the fixed and the variable compensation (i.e., the Cash Bonus and the Equity-Based Award) of up to 1:10.

The ratios above express the targeted range in the event that all performance measures are achieved at target levels.

10.	Internal Compensation Ratio

In the process of composing this Policy, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors have examined the ratio between overall compensation of the Executive Officers and the average and median salary of the other employees of Allot (including agency contractors, if any) (the “Internal Ratio”).1

The possible ramifications of the Internal Ratio on the work environment in Allot were examined, and will be periodically reviewed by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, in order to ensure that levels of executive compensation, as compared to the overall workforce will not have a negative impact on work relations in Allot.

As of the date of this policy, the ratio between the CEO compensation and the average compensation of the other employees is 8.7; the ratio between the CEO compensation and the median compensation of the other employees is 9.5; the ratio between the average compensation of other Executive Officers and the average compensation of the other employees is 4.4; and the ratio between the average compensation of other Executive Officers and the median compensation of the other employees is 4.6.

A - 9

11.	Compensation of members of Allot’s Board of Directors

11.1

Compensation of the members of Allots Board which are non-executive directors

The non-executive members of Allot’s Board of Directors may (and, in the case of external directors, shall) be entitled to remuneration and refund of expenses according to the provisions of the Companies Regulations (Rules on Remuneration and Expenses of Outside Directors), 2000, as amended by the Companies Regulations (Relief for Public Companies Traded in Stock Exchange Outside of Israel), 2000, as such regulations may be amended from time to time.

In addition, the non-executive members of Allot’s Board of Directors may be eligible to participate in Allot’s equity plans. Such equity grants will not exceed in value (based on accepted valuation methods), on the date of grant, $200,000, per vesting annum. Equity awards will vest over a period of not less than 3 years.

The Compensation Committee will be responsible for approving the amounts to be recouped and for setting terms for such recoupment from time to time.

Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the compensation recovery will not be triggered in the event of a financial restatement required because of changes in the applicable financial reporting standards.

Nothing in this Section 14 derogates from any other “Claw-back” or similar provisions regarding disgorging of profits imposed on Executive Officers by virtue of applicable securities laws.
