compensation.
In addition, members of Formula's management will be available to review and discuss Formula's auditor's report and

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the meeting in person or by proxy and
voting thereon (which excludes abstentions) is necessary for the approval of each proposal.
In addition, the approval of Proposal 4 requires that either of the following two voting requirements be met as part of the
approval by a majority of shares represented at the meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon:
● approval by the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares held by non-controlling shareholders who do
not have a conflict of interest (referred to under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, or the Companies Law, as a personal
interest) in the approval of the proposal, that are voted at the Meeting, excluding abstentions; or
● the total number of shares held by non-controlling, non-conflicted shareholders (as described
in the previous bullet-point) voted against the proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the aggregate voting rights in
Formula.
The presence (in person or by proxy) of any two or more shareholders holding, in the aggregate, at least 25% of the voting
rights in Formula constitute 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 Formula's articles of association. At such adjourned meeting, if a quorum is again not present
within 30 minutes of the scheduled time for the meeting, the presence of at least two shareholders in person or by proxy
(regardless of the voting power represented by their shares) will constitute a quorum.
