Whether or not you attend the Meeting, your vote is important. Accordingly, you are asked to participate and vote regardless of the number of ordinary shares you own.

Proposal 1, the increase in the number of directors constituting our Board from nine to ten by adding an independent, unaffiliated director, requires approval by a supermajority constituting 75% of the total voting power of the Company. As described in the proxy statement to be sent to shareholders in connection with the Meeting, approval of Proposal 1 (and Proposal 2) is critical to our ability to achieve our business objectives while maintaining compliance with Israeli corporate law. We therefore urge all of our shareholders to participate in voting on and approving Proposal 1 in order to ensure that the required supermajority is achieved.

Approval of Proposals 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 above requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy.

Furthermore, each of Proposal 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 requires that either of the following two voting requirements be met as part of the approval by an ordinary majority of ordinary shares present and voting thereon:

• the majority voted in favor of the proposal includes a majority of the ordinary shares held by non-controlling shareholders who do not have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal (other than a personal interest not deriving from a relationship with a controlling shareholder) that are voted at the meeting, excluding abstentions; or
• the total number of ordinary shares held by non-controlling, disinterested shareholders (as described in the previous bullet-point) voted against the proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in our Company.

Any two or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, at least a majority of the voting rights in the Company constitutes a quorum for purposes of the Meeting. In the absence of the requisite quorum of shareholders at the Meeting, the Meeting will be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place, unless otherwise determined at the Meeting in accordance with our Articles of Association.
