• Shareholder Meeting Held

  An Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders was held on February 3, 2026, where proposals were approved by the required majority.

• Articles of Association Amended

  Shareholders approved amendments to the Company's Articles of Association, which are now incorporated into the official document.

• Classified Board Structure Adopted

  The amendments establish a classified board of directors with staggered terms (Class I, Class II, and Class III), making it harder to change board composition quickly.

• Supermajority Voting Implemented

  Specific articles related to board structure and director removal now require a 95% affirmative vote for the first three years following February 3, 2026, and 65% thereafter, significantly limiting future governance changes.

The approval of these amendments, particularly the adoption of a classified board and stringent supermajority voting thresholds (95% initially, then 65%) for key governance provisions, significantly impacts shareholder rights and corporate control. While a classified board can provide stability, it also makes it more challenging for shareholders to effect change or for activist investors to gain control. The high supermajority requirement further entrenches the current board and management, potentially limiting accountability. This follows recent corporate actions, including the delisting from the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and a substantial resale offering, suggesting a strategic move to solidify the company's governance structure amidst these changes.
