Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned hereby tenders to Nano Dimension Ltd. (the “Purchaser”) the above-described ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share of Stratasys Ltd. (“Stratasys” and “Stratasys Shares”, respectively), pursuant to the Purchaser’s offer to purchase up to 25,266,458 outstanding Stratasys Shares, not already held by the Purchaser, such that the Purchaser would own up to and no more than 51% of the outstanding Stratasys Shares upon consummation of the offer, with a minimum condition of owning at least 46% of the outstanding Stratasys Shares upon consummation of the offer, but in any event no less than 5% of the outstanding Stratasys Shares are tendered in the offer, at the increased price of $24.00 per Stratasys Share, to the seller in cash, less any required withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms of, and subject to the conditions to, the Offer to Purchase, dated May 25, 2023 as subsequently amended and supplemented, including by the Supplement to Offer to Purchase dated June 27, 2023 and the Second Supplement to Offer to Purchase dated July 10, 2023 (together with any subsequent amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”) and this Letter of Transmittal (which, as they may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time together constitute the “offer”), receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.

Upon the terms of, and subject to the conditions to, the offer (and if the offer is extended or amended, the terms of any such extension or amendment), and subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for payment of Stratasys Shares validly tendered herewith, in accordance with the terms of the offer, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to or upon the order of the Purchaser all right, title and interest in and to, and any and all claims in respect of or arising or having arisen as a result of the undersigned’s status as a holder of, all Stratasys Shares that are being tendered hereby (and any and all non-cash dividends, distributions, rights, other Stratasys Shares or other securities issued or issuable in respect thereof on or after May 25, 2023 (collectively, “Distributions”)) and irrevocably appoints the Purchaser the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact of the undersigned with respect to the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Distributions), with full power of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest), to (1) deliver certificates evidencing the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Distributions), or transfer ownership of the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Distributions) on the account books maintained by The Depository Trust Company, together, in either case, with all accompanying evidences of transfer and authenticity, to or upon the order of the Purchaser, (2) present the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Distributions) for transfer on the books of Stratasys, and (3) receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Distributions), all in accordance with the terms of the offer.

By executing this Letter of Transmittal, the undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints the designees of the Purchaser as the attorneys-in-fact and proxies of the undersigned, each with full power of substitution, to the full extent of the undersigned’s rights with respect to the Stratasys Shares tendered and any Distributions. This proxy and power of attorney is coupled with an interest in the tendered Stratasys Shares, is irrevocable and is granted in consideration of, and is effective upon, the acceptance for payment of the tendered Shares by the Purchaser in accordance with other terms of the offer. Acceptance for payment will revoke all other proxies and powers of attorney granted by the undersigned at any time with respect to the tendered Stratasys Shares (and all Stratasys Shares and other securities issued in Distributions in respect of the tendered Stratasys Shares), and no subsequent proxies, powers of attorney, consents or revocations may be given by the undersigned with respect thereto (and if given will not be deemed effective). The undersigned understands that, in order for Stratasys Shares or Distributions to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon the Purchaser’s acceptance of the tendered Shares for payment, the Purchaser must be able to exercise all rights, including voting rights, with respect to the tendered Shares (and any and all Distributions), including, without limitation, voting as they, in their

VOLUNTARY CORPORATE ACTION; COY: NADI

 

sole discretion, may deem proper at any annual or special meeting of Stratasys’s shareholders or any adjournment or postponement of any such meeting, by written consent in lieu of any meeting or otherwise.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer Stratasys Shares tendered hereby and all Distributions, that when the tendered Stratasys Shares are accepted for payment by the Purchaser, the Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to such Stratasys Shares and Distributions, free and clear of all liens, restriction, charges and encumbrances, and that none of the tendered Stratasys Shares and Distributions will be subject to any adverse claim. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned is the registered owner of the Stratasys Shares, or the certificate(s) evidencing such Stratasys Shares have been endorsed to the undersigned in blank. The undersigned, upon request, will execute and deliver all additional documents deemed by the Depositary or the Purchaser to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, assignment and transfer of the tendered Stratasys Shares and all Distributions. In addition, the undersigned will remit and transfer promptly to the Depositary for the account of the Purchaser all Distributions in respect of Shares tendered hereby, accompanied by appropriate documentation of transfer, and until receipt of transfer or appropriate assurance of receipt and transfer, the Purchaser will be entitled to all rights and privileges as owner of each such Distribution and may withhold the entire Offer Price of the tendered Stratasys Shares, or deduct from the Offer Price, the amount or value of that Distribution as determined by the Purchaser in its sole discretion.

It is understood that the undersigned will not receive payment for the Stratasys Shares unless and until the Stratasys Shares are accepted for payment and until the certificate(s) evidencing such Stratasys Shares (if any) owned by the undersigned are received by the Depositary at the address set forth above, together with such additional documents as the Depositary may require, or, in the case of Stratasys Shares held in “street” name book-entry form, ownership of Stratasys Shares is validly transferred on the account books maintained by DTC, and until the same are processed for payment by the Depositary.

IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE STRATASYS SHARES, THE SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) (IF ANY) AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS IS AT THE OPTION AND RISK OF THE UNDERSIGNED AND THAT THE RISK OF LOSS OF SUCH STRASYS SHARES, SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) AND OTHER DOCUMENTS SHALL PASS ONLY AFTER THE DEPOSITARY HAS ACTUALLY RECEIVED THE STRATASYS SHARES OR SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) (IF ANY) (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER OF STRATASYS SHARES HELD IN “STREET” NAME, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION (AS DEFINED BELOW)). IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. DELIVERY WILL BE DEEMED EFFECTIVE AND RISK OF LOSS AND TITLE WILL PASS FROM THE OWNER ONLY WHEN RECEIVED BY THE EXCHANGE AGENT. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

No authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred will be affected by, and all such authority will survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned. All obligations of the undersigned in this Letter of Transmittal will be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable. The undersigned understands that the valid tender of Stratasys Shares pursuant to any one of the procedures described in Section 9 of the Offer to Purchase and in the Instructions to this Letter of Transmittal will constitute the undersigned’s acceptance of the terms of, and conditions to, the offer. The Purchaser’s acceptance of the tendered Stratasys Shares for payment will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Purchaser upon the terms of, and subject to the conditions to, the offer (and if the offer is extended or amended, the terms of, or conditions to, any such extension or amendment).

If you do not return Form W-9 to the requester with a TIN, you might be subject to backup withholding. See What is backup withholding, later. Cat. No. 10231X Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

 

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018) Page 2 By signing the filled-out form, you: 1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued), 2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or 3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of effectively connected income, and 4. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting, is correct. See What is FATCA reporting, later, for further information. Note: If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9. Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are: An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien; A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States; An estate (other than a foreign estate); or A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7). Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners’ share of effectively connected taxable income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, the rules under section 1446 require a partnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of partnership income. In the cases below, the following person must give Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States. In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the entity; In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the trust; and In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust. Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities). Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes. If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items. 1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien. 2. The treaty article addressing the income. 3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions. 4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax. 5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article. Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption. If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233. Backup Withholding What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding. You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return. Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if: 1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester, 2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details), 3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN, 4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or 5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only). Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

Therefore, if you are only submitting this form for an account you hold in the United States, you may leave this field blank. Consult with the person requesting this form if you are uncertain if the financial institution is subject to these requirements. A requester may indicate that a code is not required by providing you with a Form W-9 with “Not Applicable” (or any similar indication) written or printed on the line for a FATCA exemption code.

Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below. If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN. If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN. Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations. How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at www.SSA.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213.

You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/Businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. Go to www.irs.gov/Forms to view, download, or print Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4. Or, you can go to www.irs.gov/OrderForms to place an order and have Form W-7 and/or SS-4 mailed to you within 10 business days. If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester. Note: Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon. Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8. Part II. Certification To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise. For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt payee code, earlier. Signature requirements.

Failure to provide the information on the form may subject the holder to federal income tax withholding on the Offer Price and to a penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. If the holder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a number, the holder should write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN and sign and date the IRS Form W-9 in the spaces indicated. If the IRS Form W-9 is so completed, the Depositary will withhold 24% of all reportable payments that the holder is otherwise entitled to receive until a TIN is provided to the Depositary. If the holder provides a properly certified TIN within 60 days, the Depositary will refund the withheld taxes upon the holder’s request. Each holder who is not a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase) must complete and submit the applicable IRS Form W-8 in order to be exempt from the federal income tax backup withholding due on payments with respect to the Stratasys Shares. The appropriate IRS Form W-8 may be obtained from the Information Agent and the Depositary. Shareholders that are not U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisor regarding the appropriate IRS Form W-8 in their particular circumstances.

10.    Declaration Form (“Declaration of Status for Israeli Income Tax Purposes”) and Accompanying Documents or Valid Certificate. Each holder surrendering certificates for payment who is eligible for an exemption from Israeli withholding tax, or a reduced withholding tax rate, as described in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase, is required to complete the Declaration Form. The Declaration Form will be made available to you through the Tax Portal after the Final Expiration Date. The Declaration Form and any additional documents you will need to complete, including

a valid certificate issued by the Israel Tax Authority exempting such holder from Israel withholding tax or entitling such holder to a reduced rate of Israeli withholding tax in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser (a “Valid Certificate”), or will be delivered to holders who validly tender their shares under separate cover. Record holders of Stratasys Shares should securely sign-in to the Tax Portal, obtain a dedicated link address, and complete the Declaration Form. Brokers must submit a Declaration Form on behalf of their beneficial holders of Stratasys Shares. Failure to provide the information on the Declaration Form (including accompanying documentation, if applicable, as described below) or the Valid Certificate may subject the holder to Israeli income tax withholding on the Offer Price.

Each individual non-Israeli resident shareholder tendering certificates for payment who will be required to submit a completed Declaration Form after the Final Expiration Date must also provide a copy of the photo page or his or her passport. Failure by such shareholder to provide a copy of the photo page of his or her passport may subject the holder to Israeli income tax withholding on the Offer Price.

11.    Each non-Israeli resident shareholder tendering certificates for payment will need to submit a completed Declaration Form, should they validly tender their shares, and will receive an aggregate payment pursuant to the offer in an amount between US$300,001 and US$500,000, must also provide a valid certificate of residency for tax purposes issued by the tax authority of its country of residence (the “Residency Certificate”). Such shareholder may elect to submit its Residency Certificate through the Tax Portal during a period of 180 days following the Expiration Date (the “Residency Period”). In such case, to the extent the offer is consummated, 75% (in the case of individuals) and 77% (in the case of corporations) of the payment to be paid to such shareholder pursuant to the offer shall be paid promptly following the Expiration Date or Final Expiration Date, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase and 25% (in the case of individuals) and 23% (in the case of corporations) of the payment to be paid to such shareholder pursuant to the offer shall be retained and held by the Depositary (the “Paying Agent”). In the event such shareholder submits a valid Residency Certificate, then promptly thereafter, the Paying Agent will process payment of the funds to such shareholder without deducting any Israeli withholding tax. In the event such shareholder shall not submit a valid Residency Certificate, then promptly thereafter, the Paying Agent will process payment of the funds to such shareholder after deducting Israeli withholding tax. Failure by such shareholder to provide a Residency Certificate may subject the holder to Israeli income tax withholding on the Offer Price.

12.    Additional Offer Period. Nano will publicly announce in accordance with applicable law, and in any event issue a press release by 9:00 a.m., New York time on the U.S. business day following the Expiration Date, stating whether or not the conditions of the offer have been satisfied or, subject to applicable law, waived by Nano. As required by Israeli law, if the conditions to the offer have been satisfied or, subject to applicable law, waived by Nano, then the shareholders who have, with respect to each Stratasys Share owned by them, (a) not responded to the offer, (b) notified Nano of their objection to the offer, or (c) validly tendered such Stratasys Share but have not properly withdrawn their tender during the Offer Period, then will be entitled to tender each such Stratasys Share during an additional four (4) calendar-day period commencing at the completion of the Offer Period (this period is referred to as the “Additional Offer Period” and the expiration of such period is referred to as the “Final Expiration Date”). Stratasys Shares tendered during the Offer Period may be withdrawn at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, but not during the Additional Offer Period. See the Offer to Purchase.

IMPORTANT TAX INFORMATION

United States

Under U.S. federal income tax law, a shareholder who is a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase) whose tendered Stratasys Shares are accepted for payment is generally required to provide the Depositary (as payer) with the shareholder’s correct TIN on IRS Form W-9. If a shareholder is an individual, the TIN generally is the shareholder’s social security number. If the Depositary is not provided with the correct TIN, the shareholder may be subject to a penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service and payments that are made to the shareholder with respect to Stratasys Shares purchased pursuant to the offer may be subject to backup withholding of 24%. In addition, if a shareholder makes a false statement that results in no imposition of backup withholding, and there was no reasonable basis for making such statement, a penalty may also be imposed by the Internal Revenue Service.

VOLUNTARY CORPORATE ACTION; COY: NADI

 

Many shareholders (including, among others, corporations and certain non-U.S. individuals) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. In order for a non-U.S. shareholder (e.g., a non-U.S. corporation or nonresident alien individual) to qualify as an exempt recipient, that holder must submit a statement on the appropriate IRS Form W-8, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that holder’s exempt status. See the instructions for the applicable IRS Form W-8, which can be obtained on the IRS website, for additional information. A tax advisor should be consulted as to that shareholder’s qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such exemption, including which IRS Form W-8 should be provided by the shareholder.

If backup withholding applies, the Depositary is required to withhold 24% of any payments made to the shareholder. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained if the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, generally by filing a U.S. tax return.

Purpose of IRS Form W-9. To prevent backup withholding on payments that are made to a shareholder with respect to Stratasys Shares purchased in the offer, each shareholder who is a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase) is required to notify the Depositary of such shareholder’s correct TIN by completing the IRS Form W-9 certifying that (a) the TIN provided on IRS Form W-9 is correct, (b)(i) that shareholder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that he, she or it is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service has notified the shareholder that the shareholder is no longer subject to backup withholding and (c) the shareholder is a U.S. resident or other U.S. person. See the instructions for IRS Form W-9 (provided herein), for additional information.

What Number to Give the Depositary. Each shareholder is required to give the Depositary the TIN (e.g., social security number or employer identification number) of the record holder of tendered shares who is a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 11 of the Offer to Purchase). If shares are in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, consult the enclosed instructions for IRS Form W-9 for additional guidance on which number to report. If the holder has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a number, the holder should write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN and sign and date the IRS Form W-9 in the spaces indicated. If the IRS Form W-9 is so completed, the Depositary will withhold 24% of all reportable payments that the holder is otherwise entitled to receive until a TIN is provided to the Depositary. If the holder provides a properly certified TIN within 60 days, the Depositary will refund the withheld taxes upon the holder’s request.

Israel

The Purchaser has received approval from the Israel Tax Authority (the “ITA”), with respect to the withholding tax rates applicable to shareholders as a result of the sale of Stratasys Shares in the offer. The approval provides, among other things, that (1) shareholders who meet the following criteria will not be subject to Israeli withholding tax: (a) they acquired their Stratasys Shares after the listing of the Stratasys Shares in the United States on Nasdaq in 2012; (b) they do not hold their Stratasys Shares through an Israeli broker or Israeli financial institution; (c) they are the beneficial owner (directly or indirectly) of less than 5% of the outstanding Stratasys Shares; (d) they certify that they are not, and at the date of purchase of their shares were not Israeli residents (and, in the case of a corporation, that no Israeli residents (x) hold 25.0% or more of the means to control such corporation or (y) are the beneficiaries of, or are entitled to, 25.0% or more of the revenues or profits of such corporation, whether directly or indirectly); (e) with respect to shareholders who are individuals, they timely provide a copy of their passport; and (f) with respect to shareholders that shall receive an aggregate payment in the offer that is in an amount between US$300,001 and US$500,000, they timely submit in addition a valid certificate of residency for tax purposes issued by the applicable tax authority of their country of residence for the 2023 tax year, (2) payments to be made to shareholders who hold their shares through an Israeli broker or Israeli financial institution will be made by the Purchaser without any Israeli withholding at source, and the relevant Israeli broker or Israeli financial institution will withhold Israeli tax, if any, as required by Israeli law, and (3) shareholders who are not described in clauses (1) and (2) above will be subject to Israeli withholding tax at the applicable rate of the gross proceeds payable to them pursuant to the offer, unless such shareholders obtain a tax withholding certificate from the ITA, all as prescribed by Israeli tax law. The Israeli withholding tax is not an

VOLUNTARY CORPORATE ACTION; COY: NADI

 

additional tax. Rather, the Israeli income tax liability of shareholders subject to Israeli withholding will be reduced by the amount of Israeli tax withheld. If Israeli withholding tax results in an overpayment of Israeli taxes, the holder may apply to the ITA (by filing an Israeli tax return) in order to obtain a refund. However, the Purchaser cannot assure you whether and when the ITA will grant such refund.

Purpose of Declaration Form. To prevent withholding of Israeli income tax on payments that are made to a shareholder with respect to Stratasys Shares purchased in the offer, each shareholder is required to notify the Depositary of such shareholder’s exemption by completing and signing the Declaration Form, which will be sent via dedicated link address in the Tax Portal, to holders who validly tender their Stratasys Shares (and provide any applicable accompanying documents) or by providing a Valid Certificate (see Instruction 10 above). Upon receipt, the Declaration Form should be completed by holders of Stratasys Shares, who are either: (i) NOT and at the date of purchase of their Stratasys Shares were not “residents of Israel” for purposes of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 5721-1961 (the “Ordinance”), who acquired their Stratasys Shares after the listing of the Stratasys Shares in the United States on Nasdaq in 2012 or (ii) a bank, broker or financial institution that are “residents of Israel” within the meaning of that term in Section 1 of the Ordinance, holding Shares solely on behalf of beneficial shareholder(s), and are subject to the provisions of the Ordinance and regulations promulgated thereunder relating to the withholding of Israeli tax, including with respect to the cash payment (if any) made to them with respect to Stratasys Shares tendered by such beneficial shareholder(s) and accepted for payment by the Purchaser pursuant to the offer.

The foregoing description of certain tax withholding is only a summary and is qualified by all the terms of, and conditions to, the offer set forth in the Offer to Purchase. In this respect, you are urged to read Section 11 and Section 17 of the Offer to Purchase.
