According to Israel’s Companies Law Regulations (Confirmation of Ownership of Shares for Voting at the General Meeting), 2000, if a shareholder holds shares through a member
of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. (TASE Member) and the ordinary shares are registered in the name of such TASE Member on the books of our registration company, the shareholder may provide the Company, prior to the meeting, with a certification
confirming his ownership of the ordinary shares on the record date. Such certification may be obtained at the TASE Member’s offices or may be sent to the shareholder by mail (subject to payment of the cost of mailing), at the election of the

taking into consideration abstentions). In addition, in order to approve each of Items Nos. 4, 5, 6 and 7, the shareholders’ approval must either (i) include at least a majority of the ordinary shares voted by shareholders who are not
controlling shareholders (within the meaning of the ICL) and who are not shareholders who have a personal interest (within the meaning of the ICL) in the approval of such proposal, not taking into consideration abstentions, or (ii) be obtained
such that the total ordinary shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against such proposal do not represent more than two percent of the outstanding ordinary shares.
In accordance with the Israeli Companies Regulations (Reliefs for Companies with Securities Listed on Foreign Stock Exchanges), 5760-2000, a shareholder submitting a vote
for each of Items Nos. 4, 5, 6 and 7 is deemed to confirm to the Company that such shareholder does not have a “Personal Interest” in such Item and is not a “Controlling Shareholder” (as such terms are defined under the ICL), unless such
