#### ___________________________________________

#### TO BE HELD ON JUNE 11, 2026
Dear Shareholder,

Notice is hereby given that the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "**Meeting**") of Ceragon Networks Ltd. (the "**Company**") will be held on Thursday, June 11, 2026 at 4:00 PM (Israel time), at the offices of the Company located at 3 Uri Ariav St., Bldg. A, 7<sup>th</sup> floor, Rosh Ha'ayin, Israel (Telephone number: + 972-3-543-1596). The following matters are on the agenda for the Meeting (collectively, the "**Proposals**"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To approve certain compensation terms for the Company's Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To approve the renewal of the Company's Executives & Directors Compensation Policy and certain amendments thereto; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. To re-appoint Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, A Member of EY Global, as the Company's independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 and for the year commencing January 1, 2027 and until immediately following the next
 annual general meeting of shareholders, and to authorize the Board (with power of delegation to its Financial Audit Committee), to set the annual compensation of the independent auditor in accordance with the volume and nature of its
 services.

#### Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" each of the Proposals.
Additionally, at the Meeting, shareholders will be provided with the opportunity to receive and consider the auditor's report and the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. This item will not involve a vote of the shareholders.

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, the record date for determining those shareholders eligible to vote at the Meeting, are entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting (including any postponements or adjournments thereof).

Proposals 1 and 2 requires 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; provided that, the majority of the shares voted in favor of said proposals are not held by "controlling shareholders" or shareholders with "personal interest" in the approval of such proposals, not taking into account any abstention, or that the total number of shares referred to above that voted against these proposals, does not exceed two percent of the aggregate voting rights in the Company ("**Disinterested Majority**"), as described in more detail under Proposal 1 and Proposal 2.

Proposal 3 requires 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.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, you are urged to promptly complete, date and sign the enclosed proxy card and to mail it in the enclosed envelope, which requires no postage if mailed in the United States, at your earliest convenience and in any event no later than 4:00 PM (Israel time) on Wednesday, June 10, 2026. Execution of your proxy will not deprive you of your right to attend the Meeting and vote in person, and you will have the right to revoke your proxy any time before it is exercised by following the procedures set forth in the Proxy Statement enclosed herein.

If you hold ordinary shares of the Company through a bank, broker or other nominee (i.e., in "street name") which is one of our shareholders of record at the close of market on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, or which appears in the participant listing of a securities depository on that date, you must follow the instructions included in the voting instruction form you receive from your bank, broker or nominee, and may also be able to submit voting instructions to your bank, broker or nominee by phone or via the Internet. Please be certain to have your control number from your voting instruction form ready for use in providing your voting instructions. If you hold your ordinary shares of the Company in "street name," you must obtain a legal proxy from the record holder to enable you to participate in and to vote your ordinary shares of the Company at the Meeting (or to appoint a proxy to do so).

------

We intend to hold the Meeting in person and all shareholders are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person. However, we may decide to hold the Meeting virtually on the above date and time instead of in person, in which case an announcement of such change will be furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") on a Report on Form 6-K as promptly as practicable.

Joint holders of shares should also note that, pursuant to Article 32(d) of the Articles, the vote of the first of the joint holders named in the Register of Shareholders with respect to the share(s) will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other joint holder(s).

Two or more shareholders, present in person or by proxy, entitled to vote and holding together ordinary shares conferring in the aggregate thirty-three percent (33%) or more of the voting power of the Company, shall constitute a quorum at the Meeting. If within an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting a quorum is not present, the Meeting will be rescheduled for the following week and accordingly, will stand adjourned until Thursday, June 18, 2026, at the same time and place. At such adjourned Meeting, any two (2) shareholders present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum.

The last date for submitting a request to include a proposal in accordance with Section 66(b) of the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 as supplemented by the Israeli Companies Regulations (Relief for Companies with Shares Registered for Trade in a Stock Exchange Outside of Israel) (the "**Foreign Listed Regulations**"), is Wednesday, May 13, 2026.

Detailed proxy voting instructions will be provided both in the Proxy Statement and in the proxy card.**

Sincerely

/s/ Ilan Rosen

_______________________

#### PROXY STATEMENT
_______________________

#### 2026 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
To Be Held on June 11, 2026

This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of Ordinary Shares, NIS 0.01 nominal value (the "**Ordinary Shares**" or "**Shares**"), of Ceragon Networks Ltd ("**we**," "**Ceragon**" or the "**Company**") in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of the Company of proxies for use at the Company's 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "**Meeting**"), or at any postponements or adjournments thereof.

The Meeting will be held on Thursday, June 11, 2026, at 4:00 PM (Israel time), at the offices of the Company, 3 Uri Ariav St., Bldg. A, 7<sup>th</sup> floor, Rosh Ha'ayin, Israel.

#### PURPOSE OF THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
It is proposed that at the Meeting, resolutions be adopted as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To approve certain compensation terms for the Company's Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To approve the renewal of the Company's Executives & Directors Compensation Policy and certain amendments thereto; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. To re-appoint Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, A Member of EY Global, as the Company's independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 and for the year commencing January 1, 2027 and until immediately following the next
 annual general meeting of shareholders, and to authorize the Board (with power of delegation to its Financial Audit Committee), to set the annual compensation of the independent auditor in accordance with the volume and nature of its
 services.

Additionally, at the Meeting, shareholders will be provided with the opportunity to receive and consider the auditor's report and the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. This item will not involve a vote of the shareholders.

We intend to hold the Meeting in person and all shareholders are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person. However, we may decide to hold the Meeting virtually on the above date and time instead of in person, in which case an announcement of such change will be furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**SEC**") on a Report on Form 6-K as promptly as practicable.

#### RECORD DATE AND VOTING RIGHTS
Only holders of record of Ordinary Shares at the close of business on Wednesday, May 13, 2026, the record date for determining those shareholders eligible to vote at the Meeting, will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting (including any adjournments or postponements thereof) (the "**Record Date**"). Each Ordinary Share issued and outstanding as of the close of market on the Record Date, is entitled to one vote on each of the Proposals to be presented at the Meeting.

------

#### QUORUM
Under our current Articles, two or more shareholders, present in person or by proxy, entitled to vote and holding together Ordinary Shares conferring in the aggregate thirty-three percent (33%) or more of the voting power of the Company, shall constitute a quorum at the Meeting. If within an hour from the time appointed for the Meeting a quorum is not present, the Meeting will be rescheduled for the following week and accordingly, will stand adjourned until Thursday, June 18, 2026, at the same time and place. At such adjourned Meeting, any two (2) shareholders present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum.

#### SHARES OUTSTANDING
As of May 1, 2026, we had 90,893,695 Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding (this amount does not include 3,481,523 ordinary shares held by the Company as treasury shares). Equinti Trust Company, LLC is the transfer agent and registrar for the Ordinary Shares.

#### PROXY PROCEDURE
A form of proxy for use at the Meeting and a return envelope for the proxy are also enclosed.

If specification is made by a shareholder on the form of proxy, the Shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with such specification. If any other matters are presented at the Meeting, the persons named in the attached form of proxy shall vote all shares represented by all executed proxies in their best judgment. If no direction is indicated with respect to one or more of the resolutions on the proxy, the proxy will be voted "FOR" each such resolution. On all matters considered at the Meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as neither a vote "FOR" nor "AGAINST" the matter, but they will be counted in determining if a quorum is present. Broker non-votes are votes that brokers holding shares of record for their clients are, pursuant to applicable stock exchange or other rules, precluded from casting in respect of certain non-routine proposals because such brokers have not received specific instructions from their clients as to the manner in which such shares should be voted on those proposals.

Shareholders may revoke the authority granted by their execution of proxies at any time before the effective exercise thereof by: (i) filing with the Company a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date (but not less than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the time fixed for the Meeting); or (ii) voting in person at the Meeting. However, if a shareholder attends the Meeting and does not elect to vote in person, his or her proxy will not be revoked. If a proxy is properly executed and received not less than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the time fixed for the Meeting, Ordinary Shares represented by such proxy will be voted in the manner described above. If you hold your shares in "street name" and do not provide your broker with voting instructions for the Meeting, your broker will not be permitted to vote your shares on non-routine proposals, resulting in a "broker non-vote." Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds ordinary shares through a bank or broker to instruct its bank or broker how to vote its shares.

Proxies for use at the Meeting are being solicited by the Board of Directors chiefly by mail; however, certain officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company, none of whom will receive additional compensation for such solicitation, may solicit proxies by telephone, electronic mail or other personal contact. We may also retain an independent contractor to assist in the solicitation of proxies. If retained for such services, we will pay the related costs. The Company will bear the cost for the solicitation of the proxies, including postage, printing and handling, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding material to, and obtaining authority to execute proxies from, beneficial owners of Shares.

------

Pursuant to the Companies Law, as supplemented by the Foreign Listed Regulations, any shareholder or shareholders of the Company holding at least five percent (5%) of the voting rights of the Company (with respect to the proposal of director nominees) or one percent (1%) (with respect to any other matter) of the voting rights of the Company, as required by the Companies Law as supplemented by Regulation 7A. of the Foreign Listed Regulations (the "**Proposing Shareholder(s)**") may request that the Board of Directors include a matter on the agenda of a General Meeting to be held in the future, provided that the Board of Directors determines that the matter is appropriate to be considered at a General Meeting (a "**Proposal Request**").

Furthermore, the Board of Directors, may, in its discretion, to the extent it deems necessary, request that the Proposing Shareholder(s) provide additional information necessary so as to include a matter in the agenda of a Meeting, as the Board of Directors may reasonably require.

For the purposes hereof, a "Derivative Transaction" means any agreement, arrangement, interest or understanding entered into by, or on behalf or for the benefit of, any Proposing Shareholder or any of its affiliates or associates, whether of record or beneficial: (1) the value of which is derived in whole or in part from the value of any class or series of shares or other securities of the Company, (2) which otherwise provides any direct or indirect opportunity to gain or share in any gain derived from a change in the value of securities of the Company, (3) the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss, manage risk or benefit from security value or price changes, or (4) which provides the right to vote or increase or decrease the voting power of, such Proposing Shareholder, or any of its affiliates or associates, with respect to any shares or other securities of the Company, which agreement, arrangement, interest or understanding may include, without limitation, any option, warrant, debt position, note, bond, convertible security, swap, stock appreciation right, short position, profit interest, hedge, right to dividends, voting agreement, performance-related fee or arrangement to borrow or lend shares (whether or not subject to payment, settlement, exercise or conversion in any such class or series), and any proportionate interest of such Proposing Shareholder in the securities of the Company held by any general or limited partnership, or any limited liability company, of which such Proposing Shareholder is, directly or indirectly, a general partner or managing member.

Should changes be made to any item on the agenda for the Meeting after the publication of this Proxy Statement, we will communicate the changes to our shareholders through the publication of a press release, a copy of which will be furnished with the SEC on a Report on Form 6-K.

------

#### SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
We maintain an active and ongoing dialogue with our shareholders. Our executive leadership team believes that direct engagement with investors is an essential input into the Company's governance and strategic decision-making, and we are committed to ensuring that shareholder perspectives are heard, documented, and elevated to the Board.

During 2025, management proactively led our shareholder outreach program, initiating direct engagement with major institutional shareholders through one-on-one meetings and calls. These conversations covered a range of topics including the Company's strategic direction, financial performance, executive compensation, and corporate governance practices.

Feedback gathered during these engagements is compiled and formally documented by the Company's outside investor relations advisor and periodically presented to the Board and relevant committees throughout the year. The Board of Directors take shareholder input into active consideration when reviewing executive compensation and governance matters, including in connection with the renewal of the Company's Compensation Policy.

We intend to continue this program of structured engagement in the coming year and remain committed to ensuring that the insights and concerns of our shareholders inform the Board's deliberations on matters that affect long-term shareholder value.

#### BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES BY PRINCIPAL

#### SHAREHOLDERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information, as of May 1, 2026, regarding: (i) all persons or entities known to the Company to beneficially own more than 5% of the Company's Ordinary Shares; (ii) each "office holder"<sup>1</sup>, as such term is defined in the Companies Law, of the Company (the "**Office Holders**") known to the Company to beneficially own more than 1% of the Company's Ordinary Shares; and (iii) all Office Holders as a group.

The information contained herein has been obtained from the Company's records or from information furnished by the individual or entity to the Company or disclosed in public filings with the SEC. Except where otherwise indicated, and except pursuant to community property laws, we believe, based on information furnished by such owners, that the beneficial owners of the Ordinary Shares listed below have sole investment and voting power with respect to such Ordinary Shares.

The shareholders listed below do not have any different voting rights from any of our other shareholders.

The SEC defines "beneficial ownership" of a security to mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of voting power and/or investment power over such security. The "Number of Ordinary Shares Beneficially Owned" in the table below includes Ordinary Shares that may be acquired upon the (i) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (ii) the conversion of a security, (iii) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (iv) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, ordinary shares subject to exercise of options or other rights (as set forth above) that are either currently exercisable or will become exercisable within sixty (60) days as of May 1, 2026. The Ordinary Shares that may be issued under these options are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of determining the percentage owned by the person or group holding the options but are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of determining the percentage of ownership of any other person or group shown in the table. <br>

------

<sup>1</sup> The term "Office Holder" as defined in the Companies Law includes a director, the chief executive officer, the chief business officer, the vice chief executive officer, the deputy chief executive officer, any other person fulfilling or assuming any of the foregoing positions without regard to such person's title, and any manager who is directly subordinated to the chief executive officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) This information is derived from a Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC on February 27, 2025. The Ordinary Shares are beneficially owned directly or indirectly by Joseph D. Samberg through the
 Joseph D. Samberg Revocable Trust (the "**Revocable Trust** "), of which Mr. Samberg serves as trustee, and entities controlled by Mr. Samberg (the "Trusts"). Mr. Samberg may be deemed to beneficially own
 the securities directly held by the Revocable Trust and the Trusts. Joseph D. Samberg's address is 1091 Boston Post Road, Rye, NY 10580.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Each of the directors and senior management beneficially owns less than 1% of the outstanding ordinary shares as of May 1, 2026 (including options held by each such person and which are
 vested or shall become vested within 60 days of May 1, 2026) and have therefore not been separately listed.

For information relating to the compensation of our five most highly compensated Office Holders with respect to the year ended December 31, 2025, please see "Item 6. *Directors, Senior Management and Employees* – B. *Compensation* - *b) Individual Compensation of Office Holders*" in our Annual Report for 2025, which was filed on Form 20-F with the SEC on April 15, 2026.

#### PROPOSAL 1

#### APPROVAL OF CERTAIN COMPENSATION TERMS FOR THE COMPANY'S CHIEF

#### EXECUTIVE OFFICER

#### Background
Under the Companies Law, arrangements regarding the compensation of a chief executive officer ("**CEO**") of a publicly traded company should generally be consistent with such company's compensation policy (the "**Compensation Policy**") and require the prior approval of the company's compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders (provided that, the majority of the shares voted in favor of this proposal are not held by "controlling shareholders" or shareholders with "personal interest" in the approval of such proposal, as detailed below), in that order.

Following the approval of our Compensation Committee and Board, we now seek our shareholders' approval for the proposed compensation terms for Mr. Doron Arazi for 2026 in his capacity as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. The proposed compensation for Mr. Arazi is referred to as the "**CEO Compensation Package**" and is comprised of the CEO Revised Base Salary, the CEO Cash Bonus Plan and the CEO's Total Equity Compensation, as each component is defined and explained below.

Mr. Arazi, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, plays a central and indispensable role in driving the Company's strategic direction and operational execution. Under Mr. Arazi's leadership, the Company's executives and employees have been aligned around a clear strategic vision, and he has been instrumental in guiding the organization through a period of transformation and growth. Mr. Arazi's ability to inspire and mobilize the Company's workforce – from senior management to front-line employees – has been critical in advancing the Company's strategic initiatives, including its efforts to expand its market presence, enhance its product and technology portfolio, and improve its overall financial performance. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe that Mr. Arazi's continued leadership is essential to the Company's ability to execute on its long-term business plan and create sustained value for shareholders.

The Company is focused on executing a multi-year, long-term strategy to drive sustained growth, strengthen its competitive positioning and deliver meaningful shareholder value. The Board believes that this strategy is expected to increasingly demonstrate its benefits in the coming years and that continuity of leadership is important to its successful execution.

In light of the foregoing, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors also determined that, in addition to the ordinary course, annual components of the CEO Compensation Package, it is appropriate to include a special one-time retention-focused equity award (the "**Special CEO Equity Award**") intended to reinforce the importance of Mr. Arazi's continued leadership over the Company's multi-year strategic plan. This incremental long-term incentive is designed to provide a strong motivation for continued service and continuity of leadership, while also ensuring that realization of value is conditioned on the achievement of challenging performance objectives that are directly aligned with long-term shareholder value creation. If the Company's performance under our CEO's continued leadership meets the ambitious performance conditions set for the Special CEO Equity Award, it will effectively double Mr. Arazi's equity compensation for each of the next three years.

The compensation terms proposed herein, including the Special CEO Equity Award and the Annual CEO Equity Grant (as defined below, and together with the Special CEO Equity Award the "**CEO's Total Equity Compensation**"), have been carefully structured to ensure strong alignment between the CEO's compensation and the interests of the Company's shareholders. A substantial portion of the CEO's Total Equity Compensation is tied to and subject to the achievement of ambitious performance conditions, meaning that the CEO will not realize the full value of his equity compensation (if at all) unless the Company delivers meaningful results that directly benefit shareholders. The performance-based vesting conditions include, among others, objectives that are tied to total shareholder return targets, revenue growth milestones, and strategic transaction objectives – each of which is designed to create a strong correlation between the CEO's reward and value creation for our shareholders. This is in addition to the general alignment with shareholder interests that is inherent in equity compensation since the value of the compensation is based on appreciation in value of the Company's Ordinary Shares.

------

The CEO's Total Equity Compensation is comprised of (i) an Annual CEO Equity Grant where 50% of its value is comprised of stock options with an exercise price that includes a 10% premium above the fair market value on the grant date; and (ii) the Special CEO Equity Award which is entirely conditioned and tied to performance conditions – and therefore the value of 84.6% of the CEO's Total Equity Compensation is subject to performance-based vesting, which is well above the benchmark study levels and well above the levels generally recommended by leading proxy advisory firms, including Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (ISS) and Glass Lewis. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors believe that this compensation structure reflects a best-in-class approach to pay-for-performance alignment and underscores the Company's commitment to responsible and shareholder-aligned executive compensation practices.

#### Corporate Governance
The Company maintains a high level of corporate governance standards in all respects, both in relation to the full independence of its Compensation Committee and Board as well as in relation to its compensation practices. The Company has adopted best practices in relation to executive compensation, including the adoption of a clawback policy for our directors and executives that is compliant with the updated NASDAQ rules. The Company stresses long-term incentives and pay for performance, and maintains reasonable compensation levels, which are generally within the Company's peer group median levels, in alignment with shareholders' interests.

#### Compensation Policy under the Israeli Companies Law – Imposes Forward Looking Limitations
Our Compensation Policy sets the framework and boundaries for executive compensation (rather than actual individual entitlement to compensation) and provides the Compensation Committee and the Board with the authority to determine appropriate levels of compensation for each of the Company's executives within those boundaries.

The Company's objectives with respect to executive compensation are designed to link pay to performance, align executives' long-term interests with those of the Company and its shareholders, and provide competitive compensation packages that motivate the Company's executives to excel. In addition, such objectives are intended to allow the Company to retain and attract talented and experienced executives who are essential to the Company's ongoing growth and success.

As previously mentioned, in addition to the restrictions and limitations imposed by our Compensation Policy, the Companies Law mandates that any arrangements regarding the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer must generally receive prior approval from the company's compensation committee, board of directors, and shareholders, in that order. Therefore, his compensation is subject to close scrutiny by our shareholders.

------

#### Proposed Compensation Terms

#### Annual Base Salary
Under his existing employment agreement, our CEO, Mr. Doron Arazi, is entitled to a gross annual base salary of NIS 1,242,000 (approximately $421,303, based on the exchange rate published by the Bank of Israel on May 1, 2026) (the "**Exchange Rate**" and the "**Base Salary**"), plus customary fringe benefits which include, among others, managers' insurance, education fund, car expenses, long-term disability and life insurance.

The Base Salary of Mr. Arazi was last approved by our shareholders at the 2024 AGM. The Company proposes to increase Mr. Arazi's Base Salary, effective as of January 2026, by NIS 102,000, to a gross annual base salary of NIS 1,344,000 (approximately $455,902, based on the Exchange Rate) (the "**CEO Revised Base Salary**"). Mr. Arazi's fringe benefits would remain the same, including, among others, managers' insurance, education fund, car expenses, long-term disability and life insurance.

#### 2026 Cash Bonus Plan
Consistent with the Compensation Policy, and subject to the limitations set forth therein, the Company may determine, with respect to each year, the target and maximum annual cash bonuses, as well as related objectives and related weights, applicable thresholds and the formula for calculating the annual cash bonus payment to be granted to our CEO.

Taking into account numerous factors, including the provisions of the Compensation Policy and other relevant information and materials presented to them, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have resolved, and are recommending that the shareholders approve, the following annual bonus plan for calendar year 2026 for our CEO, including the following related objectives, parameters, weights and terms, calculated in accordance with the following principles (altogether, the "**CEO Cash Bonus Plan**"):

• The "On-Target" bonus amount for the year 2026 will be equal to ten (10) months' base salary (the "**On Target Bonus**").

• Financial Measurable Targets: Ninety percent (90%) of the CEO Cash Bonus Plan will be based on objective targets (the "**Financial Measurable Targets**"), as follows: seventy percent (70%) will be based on the Company's non-GAAP operating profit targets, ten percent (10%) will be based on the Company's cash flow targets, and ten percent (10%) will be based on the Company's booking targets, all to be determined based on the Company's financial results for the year 2026. These targets were determined based on the Company's 2026 annual business targets at the beginning of 2026, together with the targets determined for the annual bonus plans of the Company's entire management. 

• Non-Measurable Criteria: ten percent (10%) of the CEO Cash Bonus Plan will be based on non-objective criteria, including an assessment of the CEO's performance during the year, his contribution to the achievement of the Company's goals, and an evaluation by the Board of Directors.

<u>General Terms</u>

Our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have set a minimum threshold score with respect to each Financial Measurable Target, and no payment will be made with respect to a Financial Measurable Target if achievement of that Financial Measurable Target is below the applicable threshold. In addition, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have set a general plan threshold which is based on the Company's achievement of a pre-determined measurable financial criteria, under which no annual cash bonus shall be paid to our CEO or any of our executives.

------

Further, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have resolved that the maximum annual bonus payment to our CEO will be capped at 250% of his On Target Bonus (the "**Maximum Payment Cap**"), which cap is in compliance with the Compensation Policy. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors are of the opinion that achievement of the Financial Measurable targets, while not a certainty, is reasonably to be expected, but that achieving the Maximum Payment Cap is an extremely challenging task.

Subject to receipt of shareholders' approval of the CEO Cash Bonus Plan for 2026 for Mr. Arazi (including the related objectives, weights and terms thereof), the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors will determine, following their approval of the 2026 Company's annual results, and without the need for further shareholder approval, the actual bonus, if any, to be paid with respect to 2026 to Mr. Arazi.

#### 2026 Equity Grants
*2026 Annual CEO Grant*

The 2026 annual CEO equity grant is comprised of (a) performance based options to purchase 133,333 Ordinary Shares with an exercise price that is 10% above the fair market value as of the date of grant (as determined below) (the "**Options**") and (b) 66,667 time based restricted share units (the "**RSUs**" and together with the Options, the "**Annual CEO Equity Grant**"). The value of the Options and the value of the RSUs are each estimated to be approximately $158,000 as of the date of this Proxy Statement, based on the average closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq for the thirty (30) consecutive trading day period prior to the filing date of this Proxy Statement. The value of the Annual CEO Equity Grant as of the date of the Meeting likely will vary from the above value, depending on the closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares for the period prior to the Meeting.

The additional terms under which the Annual CEO Equity Grant shall be provided are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Annual CEO Equity Grant shall be granted on the date of the Meeting (the "**Grant Date** ");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The exercise price of the Options under the Annual CEO Equity Grant shall be equal to the average closing price of the Company's Shares on the Nasdaq for the thirty (30) consecutive trading day period
 immediately preceding the Grant Date, plus a 10% premium;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Annual CEO Equity Grant shall vest over a period of four (4) years, with 25% of the Options and 25% of the RSUs vesting on each of the first four anniversaries of the Grant Date (subject to acceleration of
 vesting in the circumstances detailed below); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Annual CEO Equity Grant shall be granted pursuant to the Company's 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the "**2024 Plan** "), and the grants shall be made through a trustee under
 the "Capital Gains Route" of Section 102(b)(2) of the Israel Income Tax Ordinance (the "**Ordinance** ").

*2026 Special CEO Equity Award*

In addition to the Annual CEO Equity Grant, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors approved, subject to shareholder approval at the Meeting, the Special CEO Equity Award, a special long-term incentive equity grant to our CEO, which is designed to align the CEO's compensation with the achievement of significant long-term performance milestones over a three-year period.

The Special CEO Equity Award is comprised of options to purchase 600,000 Ordinary Shares with a fair market value exercise price (the "**Special Options**"), which shall be subject to both financial and strategic performance-based vesting and time-based vesting.

------

The value of the Special Options is estimated to be approximately $711,000 as of the date of this Proxy Statement, based on the average closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq for the thirty (30) consecutive trading day period prior to the filing date of this Proxy Statement. The value of the Special Options as of the date of the Meeting likely will vary from the above value, depending on the closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares for the period prior to the Meeting.

The additional terms under which the Special CEO Equity Award shall be provided are as follows:

• The Special CEO Equity Award shall be granted on the date of the Meeting (the "**Grant Date**").

• The Special CEO Equity Award shall vest (i) twenty percent (20%) on the first anniversary of the Grant Date, (ii) forty percent (40%) on the second anniversary of the Grant Date and (iii) forty percent (40%) on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, in each case subject the CEO's continued employment on such date and achievement of the applicable performance conditions (described below) with respect to the preceding fiscal year. The Special CEO Equity Award also is subject to acceleration of vesting in the circumstances detailed below.

• Vesting of each tranche shall be subject to the achievement, as of the applicable vesting evaluation date upon the approval of the respective Company's audited financial statements for the relevant year (the "Evaluation Date"), of at least two (2) out of the following three (3) performance conditions with respect to the fiscal year preceding the applicable vesting date:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o | Total Shareholder Return ("TSR"). Achievement of a cumulative of a defined percentage of annual TSR which the Compensation Committee and the Board believe to be challenging and aligned to shareholder interests. TSR shall be assessed using the average closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq for the sixty (60) consecutive trading days preceding the applicable Evaluation Date, compared to the average closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares for the sixty (60) consecutive days preceding the baseline date. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o | Revenue Growth. Achievement of challenging levels of annual revenue growth on a compounding basis relative to the Company's fiscal year 2025 revenues as the baseline. Revenue growth shall be measured on an organic basis; with direct revenues from acquisitions excluded from the revenue calculation based on an agreed method for maintaining such separate evaluation during the evaluation period. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o | Strategic Transaction. Completion of a significant strategic transaction with a strategic target satisfying certain measurable thresholds with respect to the size or revenue levels of the target. The strategic transaction condition is intended to capture a single significant strategic transaction and shall not be satisfied by the aggregation of several smaller transactions. |

---

• Accumulated Performance Conditions. In the event that on the second or third vesting Evaluation Date, as applicable, at least two (2) out of three (3) performance conditions are fully achieved at the cumulative performance level required at such date, any portion of the Special CEO Equity Award that did not meet the applicable performance targets at a prior vesting Evaluation Date shall vest at such time.

<br> • The exercise price of the Special Options shall be equal to the average closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq for the period equal to thirty (30) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the Grant Date.

<br> • The Special CEO Equity Award shall be granted pursuant to the 2024 Plan, and the grants shall be made through a trustee under the "Capital Gains Route" of Section 102(b)(2) of the Ordinance.

------

The CEO's Total Equity Compensation is expected to position our CEO's equity compensation below the median level of a benchmark comprised of Israeli Nasdaq-listed issuers and our CEO Compensation Package is below the median level of such benchmark for total CEO compensation. As of the filing date of this Proxy Statement, the value of the CEO's Total Equity Compensation is $1,027,000; such value is in line with the provisions of our Compensation Policy, as it constitutes 225% of our CEO's Revised Base Salary.

Our Compensation Committee and Board remain committed to maintaining levels of dilution which are generally within the recommendations of ISS in its Israeli Proxy Voting Guidelines, with respect to outstanding equity-based compensation plans. Following the allocation of the CEO's Total Equity Compensation, the ratio of outstanding and available shares under the Company's equity plans to total outstanding shares of the Company is expected to be approximately 8.98%.

*Acceleration*

In the event that upon, or within 12 month following, the date of the closing of a Transaction (as defined in the 2024 Plan), Mr. Arazi's employment with the Company (or the surviving entity following a merger) is terminated (i) by the Company or the surviving entity other than for Cause (as defined in the 2024 Plan); or (ii) by Mr. Arazi as a result of a change in Mr. Arazi's position in the Company (or the surviving entity following merger) or Mr. Arazi not being offered continued employment by the Company or the surviving entity in a senior position, equivalent to the position of the Company's CEO prior to the Transaction, then all of the unvested equity awards included in the CEO's Total Equity Compensation shall become vested as of the date of such termination of employment. Upon the closing of a Transaction, all of the performance terms set under the Special CEO Equity Award shall no longer apply and the remaining unvested options shall remain subject only to the time-based vesting terms (and shall be subject to acceleration if applicable per the terms above). Mr. Arazi shall undertake that in the event that he will sell any of the CEO's Total Equity Compensation, the vesting of which accelerated as a result of this double trigger mechanism, he will remain employed by the Company (or the surviving entity following merger) for a six-month period following the consummation of the Corporate Transaction (subject to the Company's or the surviving entity's request) and the consideration received for such sale shall be held in escrow until the earlier of (i) the termination of Mr. Arazi's employment, or (ii) the lapse of a six-month period following the consummation of the Transaction.

The acceleration provisions described above are structured as a double-trigger mechanism specifically designed to protect shareholders' interests. Acceleration of vesting requires both a change-of-control transaction and a qualifying termination or material diminution of Mr. Arazi's role - neither event alone is sufficient. The Compensation Committee and Board believe this structure appropriately aligns the CEO's interests with those of shareholders in a transaction scenario while ensuring that acceleration is not available absent a genuine adverse employment event.

------

**<u>Additional considerations taken into account by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors when approving the abovementioned compensation terms proposed to be paid and/or granted to our CEO, Mr. Arazi</u>**

When considering the CEO Compensation Package, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors analyzed all factors and considerations required under the Compensation Policy and the Companies Law, including, *inter alia*: (i) the responsibilities and duties of Mr. Arazi, considering the size of the Company and the scope, complexity and nature of its operations; (ii) Mr. Arazi's education, qualifications, expertise and extensive experience in the telecommunications industry in general, and his performance in his various roles in the past; (iii) the information included in the benchmark study presented to the Board of Directors by third party advisors, according to which the proposed compensation terms for Mr. Arazi are within the average and the median range of compensation terms of the chief executive officers of the Company's Israeli Nasdaq-listed peers; (iv) market compensation trends; (v) the appropriate balance between the fixed components (i.e., the CEO's Revised Base Salary) and the variable components (i.e., the CEO Cash Bonus Plan and the CEO's Total Equity Compensation) of the CEO Compensation Package, and the fact that the CEO Cash Bonus Plan is limited to the Maximum Payment Cap, which is consistent with the requirement for a close link between payments to Mr. Arazi and the Company's performance and increase in profits, while protecting the interests of the Company and its shareholders; and (vi) examination of data regarding the ratio between the proposed CEO Compensation Package and the wages of the rest of the Company's employees and, particularly, the ratio to the average wage and the median wage of such employees and the impact of the gaps between them on the labor relations in the Company, and the determination that the said ratio is reasonable and will not adversely affect labor relations in the Company.

Considering the set of parameters and considerations, as well as the arguments specified above, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors determined that the proposed compensation terms for our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Doron Arazi, are fair, reasonable and customary.

#### Required Vote
The affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon (i.e., a majority of the votes cast), is required for the approval of the CEO Compensation Package, provided that a Disinterested Majority voted in favor of this proposal.

The Companies Law, as supplemented by the Foreign Listed Regulations, requires that each shareholder voting on a proposed resolution that requires a Disinterested Majority inform the Company whether or not he or she is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in the proposed resolutions. Under the Companies Law, in general, a person will be deemed to be a controlling shareholder if that person has the power to direct the activities of the company, otherwise than by reason of being a director or other office holder of the company, and a person is deemed to have a personal interest if any member of the shareholder's immediate family, or the immediate family of a shareholder's spouse, has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposals. In addition, you are deemed to have a personal interest if a company, other than Ceragon, which is affiliated with you, has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposals. A company is affiliated with you if you or a member of your immediate family serves as a director or CEO, has the right to appoint a director or the CEO, or owns five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding shares of the company. However, you are not deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposals if your interest in such proposal arises (i) solely from your ownership of our shares, or (ii) from a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.

**Please note that we consider it highly unlikely that any of our shareholders is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in this proposal**. However, as required under the Companies Law, as supplemented by the Foreign Listed Regulations, you should actively inform Ceragon whether you are a controlling shareholder or have a personal interest in this proposal.

As set forth in the Companies Law, if our shareholders oppose the approval of the compensation package for Mr. Arazi, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors may nevertheless approve such terms, in "special cases", after having held another discussion regarding such terms, on the basis of detailed reasoning that considered the rationale behind the shareholders' opposition and after determining that such approval is in the best interests of the Company.

#### Proposed Resolution
It is proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

"**RESOLVED**, to approve the CEO Compensation Package all upon the terms described in this Proposal 1 of the Proxy Statement."

#### Board Recommendation
The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" approval of the proposed resolution.

------

#### PROPOSAL 2

#### APPROVAL OF RENEWAL OF THE COMPANY'S EXECUTIVES & DIRECTORS

#### COMPENSATION POLICY AND AMENDMENTS THEREOF
<u>Background</u>

On September 12, 2013, our shareholders, following the recommendation of the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, approved the adoption of an Executives & Directors Compensation Policy (constituting the Compensation Policy), which provides a framework for terms of office and employment of our Office Holders, including base salaries, cash bonuses, equity awards, severance and other benefits, the grant of an exemption from liability, insurance and an undertaking to indemnify or indemnification.

Under the Companies Law, our Compensation Policy must be reviewed from time to time by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, in order to consider its adequacy, and propose amendments to the extent it finds that the Compensation Policy is inadequate or should otherwise be amended. In addition, the Compensation Policy must be reapproved by the Compensation Committee, Board of Directors and shareholders of the Company at least every three years. Our Compensation Policy was last approved by our shareholders on September 6, 2023 and therefore will expire on September 6, 2026 and requires renewal for an additional three-year period.

The Company operates in a fast-paced industry characterized by intense competition for executive talent, which has become increasingly pronounced in recent years, resulting in a material escalation in prevailing levels of total compensation. As a company operating in a global environment, we must maintain a compensation framework and practices that are aligned with those of our peer group in order to remain competitive. Unlike our U.S.-based peers, which are U.S. issuers subject to the advisory "Say on Pay" model, the Company is subject to an *ex ante* regulatory framework governed by Israeli law, which mandates the adoption of a compensation policy that must be submitted for shareholder approval at least once every three years.

Accordingly, whereas the "Say on Pay" model requires shareholder approval of compensation practices on a retrospective, advisory basis, Israeli law imposes prospective, binding limitations on the authority of the Compensation Committee and the Board to approve executive compensation, establishing maximum thresholds for each compensation component. Should the Compensation Committee and the Board seek to approve executive compensation that exceeds a threshold prescribed under the Compensation Policy, they may not do so without first obtaining the specific approval of our shareholders. Our competitors are not subject to comparable constraints and retain the authority to approve executive compensation as they determine to be in the best interests of their respective companies.

Maintaining appropriate flexibility to compete for executive talent in our industry is, therefore, of paramount importance, particularly given the significant variance that may exist among our executive officers with respect to individual compensation levels based on their respective positions, geographic locations, areas of expertise and depth of experience. Our Compensation Policy should afford the Compensation Committee and the Board sufficient authority to approve executive compensation that is competitive relative to that provided by our peer companies, in both ordinary course and exceptional circumstances.

------

In light of the foregoing, and in order to evaluate prevailing global best practices in executive compensation and to assess the positioning of our Office Holders' compensation arrangements relative to those of our peer group, the Company engaged outside consultants to conduct a comprehensive benchmarking analysis comparing the terms and conditions of our Compensation Policy against prevailing market practices and against the governance guidelines promulgated by ISS and Glass Lewis & Co.

Following this analysis, the Company determined that the existing Compensation Policy remains fundamentally sound and continues to reflect a disciplined, performance-oriented compensation philosophy that appropriately balances the interests of the Company and its shareholders. Accordingly, in connection with the mandatory renewal of the Compensation Policy, the Company has elected to preserve the core structure, principles and compensation parameters of the existing policy, while focusing targeted revisions on three principal areas: (i) technical, clarifying and conforming updates; (ii) the incorporation of market-standard compensation practices, including an employee stock purchase plan, performance-based equity awards and a modernized directors' and officers' insurance framework; and (iii) the establishment of compensation mechanisms designed to facilitate the retention of key talent in connection with strategic transactions.

In view of the need to enhance the Company's global competitiveness in attracting and retaining highly qualified Office Holders worldwide, and taking into account the results of the benchmarking study and the Company's business, operations and financial performance, the Compensation Committee and the Board, at their respective meetings held on March 17, 2026 and March 23, 2026, determined to amend the Compensation Policy and replace it with the Revised Executives & Directors Compensation Policy attached to this proxy statement as <u>Exhibit A</u> (the "**Revised Policy**"). The Company is now seeking shareholder approval of the Revised Policy.

<u>General</u>

 

<br> The Revised Policy attached to this Proxy Statement is shown as a "redline" against the current Compensation Policy, to reflect all the proposed changes to the current Compensation Policy. The proposed material amendments and clarifications to the current Compensation Policy are as follows (terms and definitions used hereunder are in accordance with the terms and definitions used in the Compensation Policy):

• <u>Section 5.4.2 (Benefits)</u> shall be amended to add participation in any Employee Stock Purchase Plan), if any such plan is adopted by the Company in the future, to the list of benefits that may be offered to Executives as part of the general employee benefits package.

• <u>Section 6.4 (Variable Cash Incentive Plan)</u> shall be clarified such that references to the "annual Cash Plan" payment shall be clarified as the "actual annual bonus payment" under Section 6.4, and such payment for each Executive in a given year shall remain capped at current maximum levels.

• <u>Section 6.5 (Change in Control Cash Payment)</u> shall be amended as follows: (i) the reference to "Corporate Transaction" shall be replaced with "Transaction" (as defined in the Company's most recent equity plan); (ii) the reference to the Company's equity plan shall be updated to reference the Ceragon Networks Ltd. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (replacing the former Amended and Restated Share Option and RSU Plan); and (iii) the authorized cash payment of up to 200% of such Executive's annual base salary shall be clarified to exclude any retention or similar payments made by the other party to the Transaction.

------

• <u>Section 6.4.10</u> shall be added to the Compensation Policy, authorizing the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors, in the event they deem it required or instrumental in the context of effecting an acquisition (or a merger where the Company is the surviving entity), to grant an executive of the target company who will become an Executive following the acquisition a one-time equity grant (regardless of any assumed equity) equal to up to two times the maximum Equity Value permitted for Executives under the Policy, in order to create a strong retention incentive.

• <u>Section 6.6 (Equity Based Compensation)</u> shall be amended to (i) update the reference to the Company's equity plan to the Ceragon Networks Ltd. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, as may be amended from time to time; and (ii) add clarifying language that RSUs may be subject to either time-based vesting only or subject to vesting based on both time and performance criteria.

• <u>Section 6.7 (Performance Criteria Adjustment)</u> shall be amended to clarify that adjustments to any performance criteria set for vesting of equity awards subject to performance-based vesting may be made by the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors, when applicable, following major acquisitions, and the prior references to divestures, organizational changes, or material changes in the business environment shall be removed.

• <u>Section IV (Indemnification, Insurance and Exemption)</u> shall be amended to (i) set the aggregate coverage of the directors and officers liability insurance policy at up to US$45 million; (ii) replace the prior provisions regarding premium and coverage approval with a new provision stating that premium levels per annum shall be derived from the coverage limitations under the Compensation Policy and determined by the Compensation Committee in accordance with market conditions, provided they shall have no material impact on the profitability, property or financial obligations of the Company; and (iii) authorize the Compensation Committee, with respect to a specific offering, transaction, or series of related transactions, to purchase coverage in amounts of up to 3 times the then existing limit of coverage, with costs of up to 3 times the then existing limit of premium amounts, without additional shareholder approval, if and to the extent permitted under the Companies Law.

Our Compensation Committee and Board believe that the amendments reflected in the Revised Policy are in the Company's best interests, are appropriate and suitable.

Further, our Compensation Committee and Board believe that the proposed amendments are customary compensation mechanisms, are appropriate and in-line with prevailing market practice. They also align Executives' long-term interests with those of the Company and its shareholders and provide the Company with the ability to competitively attract and retain highly qualified Executives, who are essential to the Company's ongoing growth and success, while maintaining adequate balance with other interests of the Company and its shareholders. In their review and approval of the proposed amendments to the Compensation Policy, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors also took into account, among others, the considerations, principles and provisions set forth in the Companies Law. When considering the proposed amendments, our Compensation Committee and Board considered additional factors, such as the advancement of the Company's objectives, the Company's business plan and long-term strategy and creation of appropriate incentives for executive officers and directors, the Company's risk management, size and the nature of its operations, and reviewed other empirical data and information they deemed relevant.

------

#### Required Vote
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Ordinary Shares represented and voting at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting on the matter, is required for the approval of the Revised Policy; provided that a Disinterested Majority of the shares voted in favor of this proposal.

The Companies Law requires that each shareholder voting on a proposed resolution requiring a Disinterested Majority indicate whether or not he or she is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in the proposed resolutions. Under the Companies Law, in general, a person will be deemed to be a "controlling shareholder" if that person has the power to direct the activities of the company, other than by reason of serving as a director or other office holder of the company, and a person is deemed to have a "personal interest" if he/she or any member of the shareholder's immediate family, or the immediate family of a shareholder's spouse, has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. In addition, you are deemed to have a "personal interest" if a company, other than Ceragon, that is affiliated with you, has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. Such company is a company in which you or a member of your immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, you are not deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if your interest in such proposal arises solely from your ownership of our shares.

The term "immediate family" means a spouse, sibling, parent, grandparent and child, and child, sibling or parent of a spouse or the spouse of any of the foregoing. If you do not have a personal interest in this matter, you may assume that using the form of proxy enclosed herewith will not create a personal interest. To avoid confusion, in the form of proxy card, we refer to such a personal interest as a "personal benefit or other interest".

**Please note that we consider it highly unlikely that any of our shareholders is a controlling shareholder or has a personal interest in this proposal**. However, as required under Israeli law, the enclosed form of proxy requires that you specifically indicate whether you are, or are not, a controlling shareholder or have a personal interest in this proposal. Without indicating to this effect – we will not be able to count your vote with respect to the Disinterested Majority vote required for the approval of this proposal.

#### Proposed Resolution
It is proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

"**RESOLVED**, that the Revised Policy, in the form attached as **<u>Exhibit A</u>** to this Proxy Statement for the 2026 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, be, and it hereby is, approved for a term of three (3) years as of the date of this Meeting."

#### Board Recommendation

#### The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" approval of the proposed resolution.
*As all Board members have personal interest in the proposed resolution, they were all entitled to participate and vote on said resolution at the Board meeting.*

------

#### PROPOSAL 3

#### RE-APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

#### Background
