Evogene Ltd. Shareholders:

We cordially invite you to attend the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of Evogene Ltd., or the Company, to be held at 3:00 p.m. (Israel time) on Monday, August 11, 2025, as it may be adjourned from time to time, or the Meeting, at our offices at 13 Gad Feinstein Street, Park Rehovot, Rehovot, Israel. At the Meeting, the following proposals will be on the agenda:

1. Re-election of each of (a) Mr. Nir Nimrodi, (b) Dr. Adrian Percy, (c) Mr. Leon Y. Recanati, (d) Mr. Dan Falk, (e) Ms. Sarit Firon and (f) election of Mr. Ofer Haviv, the Company's CEO and President, to serve as a director of the Company, until the Company's next annual general meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified.

<br> 2. Approval of an amendment to the equity component of the compensation package of our non-executive directors and chairperson of the board (current and future).

3. Approval of an amendment to our amended and restated articles of association, or the Articles, to increase the registered share capital of the Company by NIS 3,000,000 such that the total registered share capital of the Company will be NIS 6,000,000 divided into 30,000,000 ordinary shares of NIS 0.2 par value per share.

4. Approval of the re-appointment of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, registered public accounting firm, a member firm of Ernst & Young Global, as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2025 and until the Company's next annual general meeting of shareholders, and the authorization of the Board or the audit committee thereof to fix such accounting firm's annual compensation.

The approval of each of the above proposals 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 on such proposal (excluding abstentions).

Our Board of Directors, or our Board, unanimously recommends that you vote in favor of the above proposals, which are described in the accompanying proxy statement that we are sending to our shareholders. That proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card are being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, which may be obtained for free from the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and from our website at http://www.evogene.com/investor-relations/. The proxy statement and proxy card are also available on MAGNA, the distribution site of the Israeli Securities Authority, at www.magna.isa.gov.il, and copies thereof may furthermore be obtained by contacting our Company at 13 Gad Feinstein Street, Park Rehovot, Rehovot 7638517, Israel, Attention: Nitsan Deutsch, VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary, e-mail address, <u>nitsan.deutsch@evogene.com</u>, telephone number (+972-8-931-1900).

Holders of record of our ordinary shares (including beneficial holders who hold their shares through a bank, broker or other nominee that is a holder of record) as of the close of business on June 23, 2025, are entitled to vote at the Meeting.

All shareholders are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person. If you are unable to attend the Meeting in person, you should vote or provide voting instructions remotely in one of the below manners, depending on how you hold your ordinary shares. Detailed voting instructions will be provided both in the proxy statement and on the proxy card or voting instruction form that will be sent to you:

• If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by completing, dating and signing the enclosed form of proxy, which should be mailed, postage-free (if mailed in the United States) in the enclosed envelope to our United States transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Alternatively, you may send a completed, signed proxy card directly to our VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary at our Company's registered offices, including via email, to the address or email address for such individual provided above. We reserve the right to require additional identifying information if you submit your proxy card directly to our Company in that manner. If you mail in your proxy to our transfer agent in the enclosed envelope, it must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on August 10, 2025, for your vote to be validly included in the tally of ordinary shares voted at the Meeting. If you send in your proxy card directly to our registered office, it must be received at least four (4) hours prior to the appointed time for the Meeting, i.e., by 11:00 a.m., Israel time, on August 11, 2025.

------

• If your ordinary shares are held beneficially in "street name", that is, in a bank or brokerage account or by a trustee or nominee, on the Nasdaq Stock Market, you should complete and submit the enclosed physical voting instruction form or an online voting instruction form (at <u>www.proxyvote.com</u>) in order to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote your shares. Your voting instructions must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on August 10, 2025 to be validly implemented and reflected in the tally of ordinary shares voted at the Meeting.

• If you are a beneficial owner who holds ordinary shares through a member of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange, or TASE, you may vote your shares in person at the Meeting by presenting a certificate signed by the TASE Clearing House member through which the shares are held, which complies with the Israel Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership for Voting in General Meetings)-2000 as proof of ownership of the shares. You may instead send that certificate, along with a duly executed proxy (in the form to be filed by us on MAGNA, the distribution site of the Israeli Securities Authority, or ISA, at www.magna.isa.gov.il), to our VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary at our Company's registered offices, including via email, to the address or email address for such individual provided above. Those items must be received by us no later than six (6) hours prior to the appointed time of the Meeting for your votes to be counted. In the alternative, you may vote your shares through the electronic voting system set up by the ISA for shareholder meetings of Israeli companies whose shares are listed on the TASE, via the MAGNA online platform. Voting your shares through that system requires that you first undergo a registration process. Your vote must be submitted in that manner no later than six (6) hours before the time fixed for the Meeting. You should receive instructions about electronic voting from the TASE member through which you hold your shares.

Even if you submit your vote remotely in one of the above-described manners, if you later decide to attend the Meeting (with proper proof that you own ordinary shares, as described in the accompanying proxy statement), you may vote in person, and in that case your proxy card, voting instructions or electronic vote (as applicable) will not be counted.

In accordance with the Israeli Companies Law, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, any shareholder of the Company holding at least 1% of the outstanding voting rights of the Company for the Meeting may submit to the Company a proposed additional agenda item for the Meeting, to the Company's offices, 13 Gad Feinstein Street, Park Rehovot, Rehovot 7638517, Israel, Attention: Nitsan Deutsch, VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary, email: <u>nitsan.deutsch</u><u>@evogene.com</u>, no later than, Tuesday, June 23, 2025, provided that such proposal is appropriate for consideration by shareholders at such meeting. Notwithstanding the aforementioned, under the Companies Law, only shareholders holding at least five percent (5%) of the Company's outstanding voting rights are entitled to request that the Board include at the meeting a proposal related to election or removal of a director from the Board. To the extent that there are any additional agenda items that the Board determines to add as a result of any such submission, the Company will publish an updated notice and proxy card with respect to the Meeting, no later than Tuesday, July 1, 2025, to be furnished to the SEC under cover of a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K.

The form of proxy card for the Meeting is available to the public on the distribution website of the ISA at <u>http://www.magna.isa.gov.il</u> and on the website of the TASE at <u>http://www.tase.co.il</u><u>,</u> and has also been furnished to the SEC as an exhibit to a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, which is available on the SEC's website at <u>http://www.sec.gov</u>. A shareholder may also request from our Company directly to receive a copy of the proxy card (by using the contact information appearing above).

By order of the Board of Directors,<br><u>/s/ Yaron Eldad</u><br> Mr. Yaron Eldad<br> Chief Financial Officer<br>

------

#### Board Recommendation

#### Our Board unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" all of the above proposals.
***a)*** ***Quorum***

As of the close of business on June 16, 2025, we had 8,714,230 ordinary shares issued and outstanding. Each ordinary share outstanding as of the Record Date is entitled to one vote upon the proposals to be presented at the Meeting. Under our Articles, the Meeting will be properly convened if at least two shareholders attend the Meeting in person or submit proxies, provided that they hold shares representing at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting power in the Company. If such quorum is not present within one-half hour from the time scheduled for the Meeting, the Meeting will be adjourned for one week, to the same day, time and place, or to such other date, time and place that may be determined by our Board and for which notice is provided to our shareholders. If shares possessing at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting power in the Company are not present for the adjourned meeting, any one shareholder attending in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum, regardless of the number of shares held, or voting power possessed, by such shareholder.

***b)*** ***Vote Required for Approval of the Proposal***

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 and broker non-votes) is necessary for the approval of each proposal.

***c)*** ***Who Can Vote***

You are entitled to vote at the Meeting if you are a shareholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date. You are also entitled to vote at the Meeting if you held ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee that is one of our shareholders of record at the close of business on June 23, 2025, or which appear in the participant listing of a securities depository on that date.

***d)*** ***How You Can Vote***

You can vote your ordinary shares by attending the Meeting. If you do not plan to attend the Meeting, the method of voting will differ for shares held as a record holder, shares held in "street name" (through a broker, trustee or nominee in the United States) and shares held through a Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange, or TASE, member. Record holders of shares will receive proxy cards. Holders of shares in "street name" in the United States will receive voting instructions forms, which will be used to instruct their banks, brokers or other nominees as to how to vote, or, in the alternative, they can submit voting instructions via the internet, at <u>www.proxyvote.com</u>. Holders of shares in "street name" through a TASE member may vote via a proxy card or via the internet, but through a different procedure (as described below).

***e)*** ***Shareholders of Record***

If you are a shareholder of record (that is, you hold a share certificate that is registered in your name or your shares are registered in your name in book-entry form in the Direct Registration System), you can submit your vote by completing, signing and submitting a proxy card, postage-free (if mailed in the United States) in the enclosed envelope, to our United States transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company. The form of proxy card has or will be sent to you and will be accessible at the "Investor Relations" portion of our website, as described below under "Availability of Proxy Materials". Instead of using the enclosed envelope, you may mail a completed, signed proxy card directly to our Company's registered office, to 13 Gad Feinstein Street, Park Rehovot, Rehovot 7638517, Israel, Attention: Nitsan Deutsch, VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary, or email it to us at e-mail address: <u>nitsan.deutsch@evogene.com</u>. We reserve the right to require additional identifying information if you submit your proxy card directly to our Company in that manner.

If you mail in your proxy to our transfer agent in the enclosed envelope, it must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on August 10, 2025, for your vote to be validly included in the tally of ordinary shares voted at the Meeting. If you send in your proxy card directly to our registered office, it must be received at least four (4) hours prior to the appointed time for the Meeting, i.e., by 11:00 a.m., Israel time, on August 11, 2025. Regardless of how you submit your proxy card, you may change your mind and cancel it by sending us written notice, by signing and returning a proxy card with a later date, or by voting in person or by proxy at the Meeting.

Please follow the instructions on the proxy card. If you sign and return your proxy card and provide specific instructions (by marking a box) with regard to the proposals, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign and return your proxy card without giving specific instructions with respect to Proposal 1, 2, 3 or 4, your shares will be voted "FOR" those proposals, in accordance with the recommendation of the Board. The persons named as proxies in the enclosed proxy card will furthermore vote in accordance with the recommendation of the Board on any other matters that properly come before the Meeting.

------

***f)*** ***Shareholders Holding in "Street Name" in the United States***

If you hold ordinary shares in "street name," that is, you are an underlying beneficial holder who holds ordinary shares through a bank, broker or other nominee, the voting process will be based on you directing the bank, broker or other nominee to vote the ordinary shares in accordance with your voting instructions. In order to provide voting instructions, you may submit a physical voting instruction form (if you have received one) in the enclosed envelope, or an online voting instruction form (at <u>www.proxyvote.com</u>). Your voting instructions must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on August 10, 2025, to be validly implemented and reflected in the tally of ordinary shares voted at the Meeting.

Because a beneficial owner is not a shareholder of record, you may not vote your shares directly at the Meeting unless you obtain a "legal proxy" from the bank, broker or nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Meeting. You will also need an account statement dated on or about the Record Date that shows that you hold ordinary shares in your bank, brokerage or other account in order to vote in person at the Meeting.

Where a beneficial owner has executed and returned a voting instruction form, but has not provided voting instructions with respect to any or all proposals, the broker, trustee or nominee may not cast a vote with respect to those proposal(s) (commonly referred to as a "broker non-vote"). In that scenario, the shares held by the beneficial owner will be included in determining the presence of a quorum at the Meeting, but will not be considered "present" for the purpose of voting on those particular proposals. Those shares will therefore have no impact on the outcome of the voting on those particular proposals.

***g)*** ***Shareholders Holding in "Street Name" through the TASE***

If you hold ordinary shares in "street name" in Israel, that is, through a bank, broker or other nominee that is admitted as a member of the TASE, your shares will only be voted if you submit instructions prior to the Meeting as to how you want your shares to be voted, or if you attend the Meeting in person.

If voting by mail, you must sign and date a proxy card in the form filed by us on MAGNA on June 17, 2025 and attach to it a proof of ownership certificate ("ishur ba'alut") from the TASE Clearing House member through which the shares are held, indicating that you were the beneficial owner of the shares on the Record Date June 23, 2025). Please then deliver, mail (via registered mail) or email your completed proxy and proof of ownership certificate to our offices at 13 Gad Feinstein St, Park Rehovot, Rehovot 7638517, Israel, Attention: Nitsan Deutsch, VP Legal Affairs & Company Secretary, e-mail address: <u>nitsan.deutsch@evogene.com</u>. Those items must be received by us no later than four (4) hours prior to the appointed time of the Meeting (i.e., 11:00 a.m., Israel time, on August 11, 2025) in order for your votes to be counted towards the tally of votes at the Meeting.

If you choose to attend the Meeting (where ballots will be provided) and vote at the Meeting, you must bring the proof of ownership certificate. If you seek to change or revoke your voting instructions, you must contact the broker.

As an alternative to the above procedure, you may vote by utilizing the electronic voting system established by the Israel Securities Authority, or ISA, for shareholder meetings of Israeli companies whose shares are listed on the TASE, and which appears within the ISA's MAGNA online platform. Shareholders are able to vote their shares through that system, following a registration process, no later than six (6) hours before the time fixed for the Meeting (i.e., by 9:00 a.m., Israel time, on August 11, 2025). Shareholders may revoke any electronic vote by voting through the electronic voting system on a later date (such later date must precede the date of the Meeting), or by voting in person at the Meeting.

*Multiple Record Shareholders or Accounts*

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this document and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction forms. For example, shareholders who hold ordinary shares in more than one brokerage account will receive a separate voting instruction form for each brokerage account in which shares are held. Shareholders of record whose shares are registered in more than one name will receive more than one proxy card. You should complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and each voting instruction form that you receive in order to ensure that all shares that you own are voted.

------

#### Solicitation of Proxies
Proxies are being distributed to shareholders on or about July 1, 2025. Certain officers, directors, employees, and agents of the Company, none of whom will receive additional compensation therefor, may solicit proxies by telephone, email, or other personal contact. We 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 beneficial owners of shares.

#### Availability of Proxy Materials
Copies of the proxy card, the notice of the Meeting and this Proxy Statement are available at the "Investor Relations" portion of the Company's website, http://www.evogene.com/investor-relations/. The contents of that website are not a part of this Proxy Statement.

Under the Companies Law and our Articles, the re-election and election of each director 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 (which excludes abstentions and broker non-votes).

Each of the seven nominees, other than Mr. Ofer Haviv, has been determined by our Board to be independent within the meaning of the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Therefore, to the extent that all of the nominees are re-elected, we will be able to maintain our compliance with the requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules that a majority of the Company's directors must be independent.

The Companies Law requires that a person will not be elected and will not serve as a director in a public company if he or she does not have the required qualifications and the ability to dedicate an appropriate amount of time for the performance of his or her position as director of the company, taking into consideration, among other factors, the special needs and size of the company. A prospective nominee must declare to a company, inter alia, that he or she complies with the above-mentioned requirements and provide details supporting his or her qualification. Each of the proposed nominees has provided the requisite declaration to our Company, a copy of which is available for inspection at our offices in Rehovot, Israel.

Each nominee for re-election as a director has consented to be named and has agreed to serve as a director, if re-elected. Our Board recommended that each such director be nominated to serve for an additional term.

#### PROPOSAL 2

#### APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE EQUITY COMPENSATION PACKAGE OF OUR

#### NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS AND CHAIRPERSON OF THE BOARD
Background

Under the Companies Law, any public Israeli company that seeks to approve the terms of compensation of its directors is generally required to obtain the approval of its compensation committee, board of directors and shareholders, in that order.

Each of our directors currently receives, on an annual basis, a uniform compensation package that includes cash fees for Board and committee service, and equity compensation in the form of annual option grants. We propose to revise certain aspects of the equity component of the compensation package, as described in this Proposal 2. It is noted that while this proposal is intended to approve the terms for non-executive directors and the chairperson of the Board in general, based on our Board's approval, and assuming he is re-elected under Proposal No. 1, Mr. Nimrodi, our current chairperson, will be entitled to the compensation proposed under this Proposal No. 2, as an active chairperson, effective as of the date of this meeting.

<u>Cash Compensation of Directors</u> - General

All of our directors, except for our chairperson, receive annual fees and per-meeting fees for their service on our board and its committees. Since May 2016, we have voluntarily followed the more stringent payment scheme provided in the Companies Regulations (Rules Regarding the Compensation and Expenses of an External Director) of 2000, and currently pay our directors, except for our chairperson, the following amounts (which are subject to adjustment in accordance with the regulations):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ◾ | Annual fees in an amount of approximately $14,500 for directors not classified as experts and approximately $19,300 for directors classified as experts; and |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ◾ | Per-meeting fees in an amount of approximately $750 for directors not classified as experts and approximately $1,000 for directors classified as experts; 60% of such amounts for participation in meetings via telecommunications and 50% of such amounts for resolutions adopted in writing. |

---

<u>Cash Compensation of Chairperson of the Board</u>

In accordance with shareholders' approval from 2021, our previous chairperson was entitled to a monthly retainer at approximately $6,600 per month, without any per meeting fees, for so long as she served as our active chairperson of the Board. We intend to apply this arrangement with respect to our current and any future chairperson (including Mr. Nimrodi, assuming his re-election, subject to the approval of Proposal 1).

<u>Equity Compensation of Directors</u>

Under our current director compensation package, which was approved in 2021, each non-employee director who is appointed or re-elected by our shareholders to the Board is granted options to purchase 1,800 ordinary shares, upon the resolution of our shareholders of his/her appointment or re-election. However, an appointment by the Board to fill a vacancy does not entitle the appointed director to an option grant.

These annual options vest in four equal installments of one-quarter each, over the course of the year following the grant. In the case of a director who is elected to the Board for the first time, all of the options to purchase 1,800 ordinary shares shall vest following a one year "cliff"— i.e., on the anniversary of the initial date of election.

------

We propose to replace the current director option grant package described above, with annual option grants of options to purchase 2,500 ordinary shares to each non-executive director, current and future, on the date of our annual general shareholders' meeting at which such director is elected or re-elected to the Board. These annual options will vest in four equal installments of one-quarter each, over the course of the year following the grant. In the case of a director who is elected to the Board for the first time, all of the options to purchase 2,500 ordinary shares shall vest following a one year "cliff"— i.e., on the anniversary of the initial date of election.

All option grants to directors (including those for the chairperson of the board, as described below) shall be subject to the terms of the Plan and will be granted at an exercise price equal to the average closing price of our ordinary shares on the TASE during the 30 trading days prior to the date of grant, and not less than the fair market value for ISO grants. All such options will expire 10 years following the date of grant thereof.

*<u>Equity Compensation of Chairperson of the Board</u>*

Under our current director compensation package, the chairperson of the Board is entitled to receive annual option grants to purchase twice the number of ordinary shares as are granted to all other directors, on the same vesting and exercise price terms that apply to the option grants for all other directors.

We propose to maintain this formula with respect to future chairpersons, such that he/she will be entitled to receive options to purchase 5,000 ordinary shares, however, a chairperson of the Board who is determined by the Board to be an "active chairperson" in light of increased involvement in our activities and increased time investment in the performance of the duties accompanying the chairperson's position compared to the other directors, will be entitled to receive options to purchase 10,000 ordinary shares.

Options will be granted on the date of our annual general shareholders meeting at which such chairperson is elected or re-elected to the Board.

Our compensation committee and Board have approved, and propose that our shareholders approve— pursuant to this Proposal 2— that our future chairpersons, including Mr. Nir Nirmrodi, our prospective Chairperson of the Board (assuming that he is re-elected as a director pursuant to Proposal 1), receive annual option grants to purchase 10,000 ordinary shares, on the same vesting and exercise price terms that apply to the option grants for all other directors.

Our compensation committee believes that our Chairperson compensation program should reward actions and behaviors that drive shareholder value creation.

Mr. Nir Nirmrodi is determined by the Board to be an "active chairperson" in light of increased involvement in our activities and increased time investment in the performance of the duties accompanying the chairperson's position.

The Compensation Committee retained the services of Compvision, a reputable, independent, outside compensation consultant, which provided an opinion, that the proposed grant to our directors meets market standards.

The average annual value of the last annual grants of 1,800 options each to our directors, which were granted on June 13, 2024 was $5,407 (which would translate to a value of approximately $7,510 for a grant of 2,500 options per annum, according to the terms of the equity-based compensation to directors pursuant to this Proposal 2), and the annual value of the last annual grants of 3,600 options to our former chairperson, which were granted on June 13, 2024 was $10,518 (which would translate to a value of approximately $29,217 for a grant of 10,000 options per annum, according to the terms of the equity-based compensation to as active chairperson pursuant to this Proposal 2).

The proposed terms of compensation were approved by our compensation committee and the Board and are consistent with our current compensation policy for directors and officers.

------

*<u>Summary of Proposed Changes to Director Equity Compensation</u>*

We have summarized the proposed changes to our directors' equity compensation package as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Equity Compensation Element** | **Current Amount/Terms** | **Proposed Amount/Terms** |
| Initial annual equity grant (amount and vesting) - new directors | Options to purchase 1,800 ordinary shares, and options to purchase 3,600 ordinary shares for the chairperson, all of which are granted on the date of the annual shareholders meeting at which the director is initially elected; vesting at one "cliff"— upon the one-year anniversary of the grant date. | Options to purchase 2,500 ordinary shares, options to purchase 5,000 ordinary shares for the chairperson and options to purchase 10,000 ordinary shares for the chairperson who will be defined by the Board as an "active chairperson", all of which are granted on the date of the annual shareholders meeting at which the director is initially elected; vesting at one "cliff"— upon the one-year anniversary of the grant date. |
| Follow-up annual equity grant (amount and vesting)- directors | Options to purchase 1,800 ordinary shares, and options to purchase 3,600 ordinary shares for the chairperson, granted on the date of the annual shareholders meeting at which the director is re-elected; vesting in four equal installments of one-quarter each, over the course of the year following the grant date. | Options to purchase 2,500 ordinary shares, options to purchase 5,000 ordinary shares for the chairperson and options to purchase 10,000 ordinary shares for the chairperson who will be defined by the Board as an "active chairperson", granted on the date of the annual shareholders meeting at which the director is re-elected; vesting in four equal installments of one-quarter each, over the course of the year following the grant date. |
| Exercise Price | Equal to the average closing price of our ordinary shares on the TASE during the 30 trading days prior to the date of grant, and not less than the fair market value for ISO grants. | Equal to the average closing price of our ordinary shares on the TASE during the 30 trading days prior to the date of grant, and not less than the fair market value for ISO grants. |

#### Proposed Resolutions
We are proposing the adoption by our shareholders of the following resolutions at the Meeting:

"**RESOLVED**, to approve an amendment to the equity-based compensation terms of the Company's current and future non-executive directors and chairperson, as detailed in the Proxy Statement, dated June 17, 2025".

#### Required Vote
As described above (under "Vote Required for Approval of the Proposals"), the approval of the proposed revised equity grants to our present and future non-executive directors and chairperson requires the affirmative vote of shareholders present in person or by proxy and holding ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast with respect to this proposal (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes).

#### Board Recommendation

#### Our Board unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the foregoing resolutions approving the revised compensation package for our present and future chairperson of the Board.

------

#### PROPOSAL 3

#### APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF

#### ASSICIATION TO INCREASE THE REGISTERED SHARE CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY BY NIS

#### 3,000,000 SUCH THAT THE TOTAL REGISTERED SHARE CAPITAL OF THE COMPANY WILL BE

#### NIS 6,000,000 DIVIDED INTO 30,000,000 ORDINARY SHARES OF NIS 0.2 PAR VALUE PER SHARE
Our Articles currently authorize the issuance of up to 15,000,000 ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.2 per share.

On June 15, 2025, our board adopted resolutions approving an amendment to the Articles to increase the number of registered share capital of the Company by NIS 3,000,000, such that the total registered share capital of the Company will be NIS 6,000,000 divided into 30,000,000 Ordinary Shares of NIS 0.2 par value per share.

Our Board is recommending the proposed increase in the registered share capital to provide adequate number of ordinary shares for general corporate purposes, as further described below. The Board determined that the proposed amendment is advisable and in the best interests of the Company and directed that the proposed amendment be submitted for adoption and approval by our shareholders at the meeting. On that regard, it is noted that we have recently completed our at-the-market (ATM) offering with Lake Street Capital Markets, LLC by selling 1,923,650 shares at a weighted average price of approximately $2.34 per share (both figures are on an as-adjusted basis following our reverse share split effectuated on July 25, 2024), raising approximately $4.5 million in gross proceeds.

*<u>Purposes and Effect of the Proposed Amendment and Effect of Shareholders Approval</u>*

As of June 16, 2025, we had 8,714,230 ordinary shares outstanding, 3,384,616 ordinary shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding warrants and the registered share capital was NIS 3,000,000 divided into 15,000,000 ordinary shares. Following the approval of the proposed amendment, the total registered share capital of the Company will be NIS 6,000,000 divided into 30,000,000 ordinary shares of NIS 0.2 par value per share.

As a general matter, the increase in our registered share capital as a result of the proposed amendment would enable the Board to issue additional ordinary shares in its discretion from time to time for general corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, expanding our business through providing equity incentives to employees, officers or directors; and the raising of additional capital. Such issuances would occur without further action or approval of our shareholders and would be subject to and limited by any rules or listing requirements of Nasdaq or of any other applicable rules or regulations.

Except for ordinary shares reserved for grant(s) pursuant to our equity compensation plans and outstanding warrants, the Company does not currently have any other plans, agreements, commitments or understandings with respect to the issuance of the additional ordinary shares (or the currently authorized but unissued shares).

Failure by the shareholders to approve the proposed amendment would reduce the ability of the Board to take the potential future actions to issue additional ordinary shares discussed above.

Any additional authorized ordinary shares, if and when issued, would be part of our existing class of ordinary shares, and would have the same rights and privileges as the currently outstanding ordinary shares.

#### Proposed Resolution
We are proposing the adoption by our shareholders of the following resolution at the Meeting:

"**RESOLVED**, to approve an amendment to our Articles to increase the registered share capital of the Company by NIS 3,000,000 such that the total registered share capital of the Company will be NIS 6,000,000 divided into 30,000,000 ordinary shares of NIS 0.2 par value per share."

#### Required Vote
The approval of amendment of our Articles to increase our registered share capital 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 (which excludes abstentions and broker non-votes).

#### Board Recommendation
**Our Board unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the foregoing resolution approving an amendment to our Articles to increase the registered share capital of the Company by NIS 3,000,000 such that the total registered share capital of the Company will be NIS 6,000,000 divided into 30,000,000 ordinary shares of NIS 0.2 par value per share.**
