This Amendment supplements and amends the Schedule 13D to the extent specified herein. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning given to them in the Original Filing as previously amended.

This Amendment is being filed jointly by the Reporting Persons. The agreement among the Reporting Persons relating to the joint filing of this Amendment was filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Original Filing.

Item 3 of Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following sentence at the end of subsection entitled Scailex Share Purchase Agreement under Item 3:

The disclosures set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment are hereby incorporated by reference in this Item 3.

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is amended by adding the following sentence at the end of Item 4:

On November 10, 2019, S.B. Israel received a Notice of Event of Default and Acceleration of Debt (the Notice of Acceleration) from the Hermetic Trust, the trustee of the Notes, pursuant to which all of the Notes, together with accrued interest and all other amounts accrued under the Issue Documents (as defined in the Note Terms) were accelerated and made immediately due and payable by S.B. Israel to the Noteholders. The Notice of Acceleration also provided that if S.B. Israel does not immediately pay all such accelerated amounts, the Hermetic Trust and the Noteholders may take any action to recover amounts due in respect of the Notes which are unpaid, including, without limitation, enforcing any security interest.

On November 11, 2019, S.B. Israel delivered a Consent to Enforcement and Foreclosure Proceedings to Advent and the Hermetic Trust (the Consent), pursuant to which: (a) S.B. Israel consents that Advent will commence enforcement and foreclosure proceedings with respect to the pledges created to secure the Notes, including the Pledged Shares (the Pledged Assets); (b) S.B. Israel consents to the appointment of Advocate Ehud Sol as a receiver over the Pledged Assets, provided that he will undertake, subject to court approval, that in the event of sale of the Pledged Assets and the underlying Pledged Partner Shares to a third party, he will conduct such a sale process in good faith and apply a sale process that is objective, reasonable and transparent in order to achieve maximization of the proceeds in such a sale of control via the Pledged Partner Shares to third parties, and that Advocate Ehud Sol will keep S.B. Israel and its shareholders reasonably apprised of the sale process; and (c) S.B. Israel consents that if so requested by Advent or such receiver, the Pledged Shares will be foreclosed by way of payment in kind and the replacement of the Notes for the Pledged Shares, provided that the transfer of the Pledged Shares to Advent (or at Advents election, an entity controlled (by majority voting and economic interest, directly or indirectly) by CK Hutchison Holdings Limited) will be completed within 9 months from the date of the Consent.

On November 11, 2019, Advent applied to the Tel Aviv District court with a motion to enforce and foreclose proceedings with respect to the Pledged Assets and to appoint Advocate Ehud Sol as a receiver over the Pledged Assets; the motion was supported by the Consent. On November 12, 2019, the District Court of Tel Aviv appointed Ehud Sol as receiver and issued an order which order vests with the appointed receiver all rights related to the Pledged Shares, including the right to participate in the Issuers shareholders meetings, the right to vote the Pledged Shares, the right to receive dividends, and any contractual right related to the Pledged Shares (the Receiver Appointment). As a result of the Receiver Appointment, as of November 12, 2019, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own any Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.

On November 11, 2019, S.B. Israel, Advent and MLG&LB Trust Ltd. (Meitar) entered into certain letter agreements, pursuant to which, among other things, S.B. Israel undertakes that an affiliate of S.B. Israel will deposit cash with Meitar to be used, subject to the terms and conditions of such letter agreements, to make certain payments in respect of the Notes and the Contingent Settlement Agreement.

The foregoing summary of the Consent is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Consent, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.11.

Item 5 of Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
