Vote Required

The following chart details the vote required for each of the Proposals, the treatment of abstentions and broker non-votes for each of the Proposals, and whether the Proposals permit discretionary voting.

Proposal	Votes Required	Treatment of Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes	Broker Discretionary Voting
Proposals 1.a., 1.b. and 1.c: Election of three Class II directors for a three-year term expiring in 2025	Affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders in person or by proxy at the Meeting on the proposal (an “Ordinary Majority”). The results of the voting for Proposals 1.a., 1.b. and 1.c. will be considered together with the results of the voting for Proposals 7.a. and 7.b. To the extent more than three directors receive the affirmative vote of the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon, the three nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes in favor of their election will be elected to serve as Class II directors.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposals 1.a., 1.b. and 1.c.	No.
Proposal 2: Approval of an amendment to the Company’s 2014 Incentive Compensation Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance thereunder	An Ordinary Majority.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposal 2.	No.
Proposals 3.a. and 3.b.: Subject to approval of Proposal 2, approval of a grant of equity awards to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a salary increase	Affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority. In addition to the affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority, a Special Majority is required under Israeli law for approval of Proposals 3.a. and 3.b., meaning that either:(1) a simple majority of shares voted at the 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.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposals 3.a. and 3.b.	No.
Proposal 4: Approval of the terms of consulting services by a member of the Board.	Affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposal 4.	No.
Proposal 5: Reappointment of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, a member of Ernst & Young Global, as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2022.	Affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority.	Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on Proposal 5, we do not expect for there to be any broker non‑votes for Proposal 5, and abstentions will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposal 5.	Yes.
Proposal 6: Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.	Affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposal 6.	No.
Proposals 7.a. and 7.b.: Shareholder proposal regarding the election of two shareholder nominees as Class II directors for a three-year term expiring in 2025.	Affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority. The results of the voting for Proposals 7.a. and 7.b. will be considered together with the results of the voting for Proposals 1.a., 1.b. and 1.c. To the extent more than three directors receive the affirmative vote of an Ordinary Majority, the three nominees who receive the highest number of affirmative votes in favor of their election will be elected to serve as Class II directors.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” Proposals 7.a and 7.b.	No.
Proposal 8: Shareholder proposal to amend the Company’s Articles of Association to declassify the Board and remove certain supermajority vote provisions for director removal immediately following the Meeting.	Affirmative vote of 65% or more of the voting power of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” Proposal 8.	No.
Proposal 9: Shareholder proposal to remove three of the Company’s directors immediately following the Meeting.	Affirmative vote of 65% or more of the voting power of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares.	Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “AGAINST” Proposal 9.	No.

You will be asked to indicate on the WHITE proxy card whether you are a controlling shareholder or whether you have a personal interest in the adoption of Proposals 3.a. and 3.b. For this purpose, under the Israel 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. More detailed information will appear in the Definitive Proxy Statement; and

a “controlling shareholder” means a shareholder having the ability to direct the activities of the 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 the Company or has the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the Company or its general manager. To the knowledge of the Company, there is no shareholder who is a controlling shareholder.

Review of Documents

Shareholders may review the full version of the foregoing items of business and the Definitive Proxy Statement, which includes the full version of the proposed resolutions and a WHITE proxy card, at the principal executive offices of the Company stated above, from Sundays through Thursdays during regular working hours and upon prior notice (tel no.: (+972-4) 959-0123) until the Meeting date.
