The enclosed proxy is being solicited by the board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) of PolyPid Ltd. (the “Company” or “our,” “we” or “us”) for use at the Company’s annual and extraordinary general meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”) to be held on July 15, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Israel time, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof.
Upon the receipt of a properly executed proxy in the form enclosed, the persons named as proxies therein will vote the ordinary shares, no par value, of the Company (the “Ordinary Shares”) covered thereby in accordance with the directions of the shareholders executing the proxy. In the absence of such directions, and except as otherwise mentioned in this proxy statement, the Ordinary Shares represented thereby will be voted in favor of each of the proposals described in this proxy statement.
Two or more shareholders present, personally or by proxy, holding in the aggregate not less than twenty five percent (25%) of the Company’s outstanding Ordinary Shares, shall constitute a quorum for the Meeting. If within half an hour from the time the Meeting is convened a quorum is not present, the Meeting shall stand adjourned until the same day, July 15, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Israel time at the same place (the “Adjourned Meeting”). At the Adjourned Meeting, if a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for such meeting, any number of shareholders present personally or by proxy shall be deemed a quorum and shall be entitled to deliberate and to resolve in respect of the matters for which the Meeting was convened. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as Ordinary Shares present for the purpose of determining a quorum.
Pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”), Proposals No. 1 and 2 described hereinafter each require the affirmative vote of shareholders present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, and holding Ordinary Shares of the Company amounting in the aggregate to at least a majority of the votes actually cast by shareholders with respect to such proposals (a “Simple Majority”). The vote for re-electing each of the directors as set forth in Proposal No. 2 shall be made separately.
Proposals No. 3 and 4 are subject to the fulfillment of the voting requirement above and also one of the following additional voting requirements: (i) the majority of the shares that are voted at the Meeting in favor of such Proposal, excluding abstentions, includes a majority of the votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders and/or do not have a personal interest in the Proposal; or (ii) the total number of shares of the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above that are voted against such Proposal does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company (the “Special Majority”).
For this purpose, “Personal Interest” is defined under the Companies Law as: (1) a shareholder’s personal interest in the approval of an act or a transaction of the Company, including (i) the personal interest of any of his or her relatives (which includes for these purposes foregoing shareholder’s spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, descendants, and spouse’s descendants, siblings, and parents, and the spouse of any of the foregoing); (ii) a personal interest of a corporation in which a shareholder or any of his/her aforementioned relatives serve as a director or the chief executive officer, owns at least 5% of its issued share capital or its voting rights or has the right to appoint a director or chief executive officer; and (iii) a personal interest of an individual voting via a power of attorney given by a third party (even if the empowering shareholder has no personal interest), and the vote of an attorney-in-fact shall be considered a personal interest vote if the empowering shareholder has a personal interest, and all with no regard as to whether the attorney-in-fact has voting discretion or not, but (2) excludes a personal interest arising solely from the fact of holding shares in the Company.
For this purpose, a “controlling shareholder” is any shareholder that has the ability to direct the Company’s activities (other than by means of being a director or office holder of the Company). A person is presumed to be a controlling shareholder if he or she holds or controls, by himself or together with others, one half or more of any one of the “means of control” of a company; in the context of a transaction with an interested party, a shareholder who holds 25% or more of the voting rights in the company if no other shareholder holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the company, is also presumed to be a controlling shareholder. “Means of control” is defined as any one of the following: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of a company, or (ii) the right to elect directors of a company or its chief executive officer.
According to the Companies Law Regulations (Exemptions for Companies whose Securities are Listed for Trading on a Stock Exchange Outside of Israel) 5760-2000, by signing and submitting the attached proxy card, a shareholder of record declares and approves that he or she is not a controlling shareholder and/or has no personal interest in the approval of any of the items on the Meeting agenda that requires such declaration under the Companies Law, with the exception of a personal interest that the shareholder positively informed the Company about, as detailed in the attached proxy card.
Proposal No. 5 will not involve a vote by the shareholders and accordingly there is no proposed resolution.
It is noted that there may be changes on the agenda after publishing the proxy, and there may be position statements which can be published. Therefore, the most updated agenda will be furnished to the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on a Report on Form 6-K and will be made available to the public on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

PROPOSAL 3
TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE TERMS OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS’ ANNUAL OPTIONS GRANT
Background
According to the Compensation Policy, in each annual general meeting, each non-executive director is granted non-executive directors’ annual options in an annual value of $40,000. The vesting schedule and exercise price of non-executive directors’ annual options are specified in the Compensation Policy.
Proposed amendment to the non-executive directors’ annual options’ terms
On May 7, 2026 and May 11, 2026 (the “Board Meeting”), the compensation committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) and the Board of Directors, respectively, approved and recommended to the Company’s shareholders to approve amendments to certain terms of non-executive directors’ annual options, in deviation of the Compensation Policy, as follows (the “amendment to options terms”):
(i) the amount of non-executive directors’ annual options will be calculated based on the share closing price on the trading day before the Board Meeting (9,132 options for each non-executive director) instead of the day of the Meeting; and
(ii) the exercise price of each non-executive directors’ annual option will be equal to the average closing price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares over the 30 trading days prior to the day of the Board Meeting (US$ 4.46) instead of the closing price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the date of the Meeting.
When considering the amendment to options terms, with terms which exceed the terms of the Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors considered, inter alia: (i) the considerations mentioned in section 267(b)A of the Companies Law and any reference to the matters specified in part A and B of the first addition to the Companies Law; (ii) that determining the calculation date as of the Board Meeting date provides a clear and known reference point for the directors, the Company and the shareholders when evaluating the grant of non-executive directors’ annual options, and avoids uncertainty as to the final economic terms during the period before shareholder approval; and (iii) that the amendments to options terms reflect fair and reasonable terms that depend on the Company’s Ordinary Share market price.
The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, to approve the amendments to the non-executive directors’ annual options’ terms, as set forth in the Proxy Statement.”
The approval of this proposal, as described above, requires the affirmative vote of a Special Majority.
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the above proposal.

The CEO Options are granted in accordance with the capital gain track of Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance, 1961.
When considering the CEO Options grant, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors considered numerous factors, including, among others: (i) the position, responsibilities, background and experience of Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad; (ii) that the CEO Options granted to Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad reflect a fair and reasonable value for Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad’s services, commitment and contribution to the Company’s growth and achievements in the short and long term; (iii) that the grant of CEO Options to Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad is in accordance with the Company’s Compensation Policy; and (iv) that the grant of CEO Options to Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad will create a similarity of interests between the Company’s shareholders and Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad.

Accordingly, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors determined that the CEO Options grant for Ms. Czaczkes Akselbrad is in the Company’s best interest.
The shareholders of the Company are requested to adopt the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, to approve the grant of CEO Options for Ms. Dikla Czaczkes Akselbrad, as set forth in the Proxy Statement.”
