RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the parties intend for Parent to indirectly acquire the Company through Merger Sub 1, on the terms and

AND WHEREAS, immediately following the First Merger, in accordance with the Companies Law, Merger Sub 1 shall be
merged with and into the Interim Surviving Entity (the “Second Merger” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with the Company surviving the Second

contemplated hereby, including the Mergers;
AND WHEREAS, the board of directors of each Merger Sub has: (a) determined that it is in the best interests of such

advisable, to enter into this Agreement with the Company and Parent; (b) approved the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Mergers; and (c) resolved,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to recommend that the sole shareholder of the applicable Merger Sub vote to approve the applicable Merger and such other actions as contemplated by this Agreement;
AND WHEREAS, each of the Company Special Committee, Audit Committee and thereafter the board of directors of the
Company (the “Company Board”) has unanimously (with those directors who declared their personal interest abstaining or recusing themselves as required by Law): (a) determined that it is in the best
interests of the Company and the holders of shares of the Company Common Stock (each a “Stockholder”), and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement with Parent and the Merger Subs; (b) approved
the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including, subject to receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Mergers; and (c) resolved, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make the Board Recommendation;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements
contained in this Agreement, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Section 1.02 Closing and Effective Time.
(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the closing of the First Merger
(the “Closing”) will take place at 2:00 p.m., Tel Aviv time, as soon as practicable (and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) after the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted hereunder,
waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions to the First Merger set forth in ARTICLE VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, to the
extent permitted hereunder, waiver of all such conditions), unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to its terms or unless another time or date is agreed to in writing by the parties hereto. The Closing shall take place remotely by

Entity’s name. Immediately following the Second Merger, the Articles of Association of Merger Sub 1 as in effect immediately prior to such Second Merger (as set forth in Exhibit A) shall, until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms

each case, immediately prior to the Second Merger shall, from and after the Second Merger, be the directors of the Surviving Entity until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death,

ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGERS ON CAPITAL STOCK; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01 Effect of the First Merger on Capital Stock.
At the Effective Time, as a result of the First Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Subs, the Company, any Stockholder or the holder of any shares or
capital stock of Parent or the Merger Subs:
(a) Conversion of Certain Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock that is
owned by Parent or the Company (as treasury stock, dormant stock or otherwise) or any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Cancelled
Shares”) will automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or consideration in exchange therefor.
(b) Conversion of Company Common Stock.
(i) Each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares) shall be automatically converted into and represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration.
(ii) As a result, at the Effective Time, subject to Section 2.01(a), each
holder of: (A) a certificate formerly representing any shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Certificate”); or (B) any shares of Company Common Stock evidenced by way of book-entry in the register of
shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Book-Entry Share”) will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration
in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof, and Merger Sub 1 shall be deemed to solely own all of the Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Cancelled Shares) (the “Interim Surviving Common Stock”).The Interim Surviving Common Stock shall have the same rights, powers, and privileges as provided under the Articles of Association
of the Interim Surviving Entity and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Interim Surviving Entity.
(c) Conversion of Merger Sub 2 Capital Stock. Each ordinary share of Merger Sub 2 issued
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to exist at the Effective Time and no consideration or payment shall be due or delivered in respect thereof.
(d) Fractions. In any case where the aggregate cash payable to a particular Person under
the First Merger would, but for this provision, include a fraction of $0.01, such cash consideration payable shall be rounded to the nearest $0.01.
Section 2.02 Exchange Procedures.
(a) Exchange Agent; Exchange Fund. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall engage a U.S.
nationally-recognized financial institution to be mutually agreed upon to act as exchange agent in connection with the First Merger (the “Exchange Agent”), which will use a local Israeli
nationally-recognized sub-paying agent appointed by Parent and the Company (the “Israeli Paying Agent”) to assist in reviewing any requisite residency certificate and/or other declarations and
supporting documents for Israeli Tax withholding purposes and/or a Valid Tax Certificate, as applicable, and, in connection therewith, shall enter into an agreement with the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Paying Agent in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Company and Parent. At or promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, on behalf of Merger Sub 1 with the Exchange Agent, with no withholding of Taxes (except as provided for in
Section 2.05) and in trust for the sole benefit of the Persons entitled to receive consideration pursuant to Section 2.01 and/or Section 2.07 (the “Holders”), cash sufficient to pay the Merger
Consideration (such cash, the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to fund payments of the Merger Consideration. In the event the Exchange Fund shall be
insufficient to pay the Merger Consideration, Parent shall promptly deposit, on behalf of Merger Sub 1 with no withholding of Taxes (except as provided for in Section 2.05), additional cash with the Exchange Agent in an amount that is equal
to the shortfall that is required to make such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any portion of the Merger Consideration that is deliverable in respect of any Section 102 Shares, shall be delivered by the
Israeli Paying Agent to the Section 102 Trustee to be held on behalf of the holders of such Section 102 Shares, and released in accordance with the agreement with the Section 102 Trustee, applicable Law (including the provisions of Section
102 of the Ordinance) and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling). The Section 102 Trustee shall withhold any amounts required in accordance with applicable Law (including the provisions of Section 102 of the Ordinance) and the
Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling).
(b) Procedures for Surrender; No Interest. Promptly after the Effective Time, and in no
event later than the third (3rd) Business Day thereafter, Parent shall send, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to send, on behalf of Merger Sub 1 to each holder
of record of Company Common Stock at the Effective Time, whose Company Common Stock was converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify
that the delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Shares to the Exchange Agent, and which letter of transmittal will be in customary form
and have such other provisions as Parent and the Surviving Entity may reasonably specify) for use in such exchange. Each holder of shares of Company Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration
shall be entitled to receive the Merger Consideration into which such shares of Company Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 2.01(b) in respect of the Company Common Stock represented by a Certificate or Book-Entry Share upon:
(i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate (duly endorsed or with such affidavits of loss and bonds as required by Section 2.06); or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of
transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of Book-Entry Shares; in each case, together with a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents or declaration as may reasonably be
requested by the Exchange Agent, including without limitation any IRS Forms W-8 or W-9 that may be required under applicable Law, and a Non-Israeli Holder Tax Declaration in which the holder of shares of Company Common Stock provides certain
information necessary for the Parent, Surviving Entity and the Exchange Agent to determine whether any amounts need to be withheld from the Merger Consideration payable to such holder pursuant to the terms of the Code or any applicable
provision of state, local, Israeli, U.S. or foreign Law. No interest shall be paid or accrued upon the surrender or transfer of any Certificate or Book-Entry Share. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this
ARTICLE II, each Certificate(s) or Book-Entry Share(s) so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, shall immediately be cancelled.
(c) Investment of Exchange Fund. Until disbursed in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, the cash in the Exchange Fund may be invested by the Exchange Agent, as directed by Parent. No such investments or losses with respect to any investments of the Exchange Fund will affect the amounts payable to
the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares. Any income from investment of the Exchange Fund will be payable to Parent on demand.
(d) Payments to Non-Registered Holders. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be
paid to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Book-Entry Share, as applicable, is registered, it shall be a condition to such payment that (i) such Certificate shall be properly endorsed
or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Book-Entry Share shall be properly transferred; and (ii) the Person requesting such payment shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such
payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, as applicable, or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.
(e) Full Satisfaction. All Merger Consideration paid upon the surrender of Certificates or
transfer of Book-Entry Shares in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry
Shares.
(f) Transfer Book Closed. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further
registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock on the records of the Company, the Interim Surviving Entity or the Surviving Entity. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to Parent, the
Interim Surviving Entity, the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration with respect thereto in accordance with this Agreement.
(g) Termination of Exchange Fund. Subject to the terms of the agreements engaging the
Exchange Agent or Israeli Paying Agent, any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by a Stockholder two (2) years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise
escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity), shall become, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, the property of the Surviving Entity free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto
and shall, at such second anniversary of the Effective Time be returned to the Surviving Entity. Neither the Parent nor the Surviving Entity shall be liable to any Stockholder for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable
abandoned property, escheat, or similar Laws.
(h) Full Satisfaction. All Merger Consideration issued or paid upon conversion of the
shares of Company Common Stock or Company Equity Awards, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company
Common Stock or Company Equity Awards, as applicable.
Section 2.03 No Appraisal Rights.
In accordance with Israeli Law, no statutory dissenters’ or statutory appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Mergers or the Merger Consideration.
Section 2.04 Adjustments.
Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the
outstanding shares of the Company Common Stock shall occur (other than, if permitted by this Agreement, the issuance of additional shares of capital stock of the Company), including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock
split (including a reverse stock split or consolidation), or combination, exchange, readjustment of shares, or similar transaction, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be
appropriately adjusted to reflect such change; provided, however, that this sentence shall not be construed to permit the Company to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by
the terms of this Agreement.
Section 2.05 Withholding Rights.
(a) Each of the Exchange Agent, Israeli Paying Agent, Parent, the Merger Subs, the Interim
Surviving Entity and the Surviving Entity (each, a “Payor”) shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration and any other amounts otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this
Agreement such amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Law, provided that with respect to Israeli Taxes, the rate of such deduction shall not exceed 30% (unless
otherwise required by Israeli withholding legislation). To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and duly remitted to the applicable taxing authority by the relevant Payor, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Payor made such deduction and withholding. To the extent amounts are so withheld, they shall be subsequently paid over to the appropriate taxing authority on or prior to the
last day on which such payment is required under any applicable Law and the relevant Payor shall provide the affected Person as soon as practically possible with (i) confirmation of such withholding, and (ii) evidence regarding payment to of
such withheld amounts to the appropriate taxing authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby clarified that absent a change in applicable legal requirements prior to the Closing Date, no withholding for U.S. federal income taxes
shall be required on any payment made pursuant to this Agreement to the extent the applicable payee has provided the applicable IRS Form W-9 or the appropriate version of IRS Form W-8, in each case, validly completed and executed by such
payee.
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(a), with respect to Israeli Taxes, the Merger Consideration shall
be retained by the Exchange Agent for the benefit of each Holder for a period of up to one hundred and eighty (180) days from the Closing Date (or, with respect to amounts payable or other consideration deliverable after the Closing Date,
ninety (90) days from the date on which such amount, or portion thereof, is released to the Exchange Agent for further distribution to the applicable Holder) (the “Withholding Drop Date”) during which
time neither the Exchange Agent nor the Israeli Paying Agent (nor any other Payor) shall withhold any Israeli Taxes in respect of said consideration, and during which time each Holder may obtain a Valid Tax Certificate. If no later than
three (3) Business Days prior to the Withholding Drop Date a Holder delivers a Valid Tax Certificate to the Israeli Paying Agent, then the deduction and withholding of any Israeli Taxes shall be made only in accordance with the provisions
of such Valid Tax Certificate and the balance of the payment that is not withheld shall be promptly paid to such Holder. If a Holder (i) does not provide the Exchange Agent or the Israeli Paying Agent (as applicable) with a Valid Tax
Certificate by no later than three (3) Business Days before the Withholding Drop Date, or (ii) submits a written request to the Exchange Agent or the Israeli Paying Agent (as applicable) to release its portion of the consideration prior to
the Withholding Drop Date and fails to submit a Valid Tax Certificate at or before such time, then the amount to be withheld from such Holder’s portion of the consideration shall be calculated according to the applicable withholding rate as
reasonably determined by the Israeli Paying Agent in accordance with applicable Law, provided that such rate shall not exceed 30% (unless otherwise required by Israeli withholding legislation). Israeli Taxes in respect of such Merger
Consideration shall be transferred by the Exchange Agent to the Israeli Paying Agent and remitted by the Israeli Paying Agent to the ITA. The remaining portion of the Merger Consideration following such deduction of Israeli Taxes shall be
paid by the Exchange Agent to the applicable Holder.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(a) above, any consideration payable or
deliverable to holders of Company Equity Awards or Section 102 Shares will be subject to deduction or withholding of Israeli Tax under the Ordinance on the 16th day of the calendar month following the month during which the Closing occurs,
unless (i) with respect to holders of Section 102 Securities and Section 3(i) Options, the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling) shall have been obtained in which case the deduction and withholding of any Israeli Taxes shall be
made only in accordance with the provisions of such Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling); (ii) with respect to non-Israeli resident holders of Company Equity Awards who were granted such Company Equity Awards in consideration
solely for work or services performed entirely outside of Israel for the Company’s non-Israeli Subsidiaries (each a “Non-Israeli Public Holder”), a validly executed declaration regarding their
non-Israeli residence and confirmation that they were granted such Company Equity Awards in consideration solely for work or services performed entirely outside of Israel for the Company’s non-Israeli Subsidiaries, in the form attached as Exhibit
2.05(c) (a “Non-Israeli Holder Tax Declaration”) shall have been provided to the Israeli Paying Agent prior to the payment of the consideration payable at the Closing, and in such case such
consideration shall be transferred through the applicable Subsidiary’s payroll or accounts payable system (as applicable) to the relevant holder subject to withholding of non-Israeli Tax as required under any applicable Law; and (iii) any
payments to be made to holders of Company Equity Awards that do not fall into clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section 2.05(c) shall be subject to deduction or withholding of Israeli Tax under the Ordinance pursuant to Section 2.05(b),
unless such holder provides the Israeli Paying Agent a Valid Tax Certificate, prior to such date.
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(a) and Section 2.05(b) above, any consideration
in an amount of up to $500,000, payable or deliverable to any holder of Company Common Stock who acquired such stock on or after October 28, 2022, and as of the Closing Date holds less than five percent (5%) of the share capital of the
Company, shall be paid by the Exchange Agent to such Holder without deduction or withholding of any Israeli Tax; provided, however, that a validly executed
declaration confirming that: (i) such holder is not an Israeli resident; (ii) such holder acquired its Company Common Stock on or after October 28, 2022; and (iii) as of the Closing Date such holder holds less than five percent (5%) of the
issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, in the form attached as Exhibit 2.05(d) (the “Non-Israeli Public Holder Tax Declaration”) shall have been provided to the Israeli Paying
Agent prior to the payment of the consideration payable at the Closing.
(e) In the event that the Israeli Paying Agent (or other Payor) receives a demand from the ITA to
withhold any amount out of the consideration payable to any Holder and transfer it to the ITA prior to the Withholding Drop Date, the Israeli Paying Agent (i) shall notify such Holder in writing of such matter promptly after receipt of such
demand and provide such holder a reasonable time (but not less than 30 days, unless otherwise explicitly required by the ITA or under applicable Law) to attempt to delay such requirement or extend the period for complying with such
requirement as evidenced by a written certificate, ruling or confirmation from the ITA; and (ii) to the extent that any such certificate, ruling or confirmation is not timely provided by such Holder to the Israeli Paying Agent, transfer to
the ITA any amount so demanded, and such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to such Holder, and the Israeli Paying Agent shall provide to such Person written confirmation of the
amount so deducted or withheld.
Section 2.06 Lost Certificates.
If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen, or
destroyed, and, if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Entity with respect to such Certificate,
the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen, or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate as contemplated under this
ARTICLE II.
Section 2.07 Treatment of Convertible, Exchangeable and
Exercisable Securities.
(a) Company Stock Options. The Company shall take all requisite action so that, at the
Effective Time, each option to acquire shares of Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Stock Option”) that is outstanding under the Company Stock Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether
or not then vested or exercisable, shall: (i) if the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock underlying each such Company Stock Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, terminate and be cancelled as
of immediately prior to the Effective Time, without any consideration being payable in respect thereof, and have no further force or effect; and (ii) if the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock underlying each such
Company Stock Option is less than the Merger Consideration (each such Company Stock Option, an “In-the-Money Company Stock Option”), terminate and be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective
Time and be converted into the right to receive an amount equal to: “N” multiplied by (“P” minus “E”) where: “N” equals the number of Company Common Stock covered by each such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, “P”
equals the Merger Consideration and “E” equals the per share exercise price of Company Common Stock for each such Company Stock Option, less any Taxes required to be withheld with respect to each such Company Stock Option in accordance with
Section 2.05. Following the Effective Time, no such Company Stock Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding and each former holder of any such Company Stock Option shall cease to have any
rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the consideration set forth in this Section 2.07(a) in exchange for such Company Stock Options in accordance with this Section 2.07(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, any portion of the Merger Consideration that is deliverable in respect of any Section 102 Options or Section 3(i) Options shall be delivered by the Exchange Agent or the Israeli Paying Agent to the Section 102 Trustee to be held on
behalf of the holders of such Section 102 Options or Section 3(i) Options, as applicable, and released in accordance with the agreement with the Section 102 Trustee, applicable Law (including the provisions of Section 102 or Section 3(i) of
the Ordinance, as applicable) and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling). The Section 102 Trustee shall withhold any amounts required in accordance with applicable Law (including the provisions of Section 102 or Section 3(i)
of the Ordinance, as applicable) and the Options Tax Ruling (or the Interim Options Ruling).
(b) Company Restricted Share Units. The Company shall take all requisite action so that, at
the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is outstanding under the Company Stock Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then vested, shall, by virtue of the First Merger and without any action on the part of the holder
thereof, vest in full and become free of restrictions and shall be treated as a share of Company Common Stock that shall be cancelled and converted automatically, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Agreement, into the right
to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(b) (treating such shares in the same manner as all other outstanding shares of Company Common Stock for such purposes) subject to the withholding of any Taxes required to be
withheld with respect to such Company RSU in accordance with Section 2.05.
(c) Company Warrants. Each of the Company Warrants issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time shall remain outstanding such that following the Effective Time, in accordance with the terms of the Company Warrants and automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to
represent an entitlement to receive a Company Common Stock on the exercise thereof and shall become a Company Warrant exercisable for Merger Consideration such that each holder of the Company Warrants shall have the right to, upon exercise
thereof, receive from the Company, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the Company Warrants and in lieu of the Company Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights
represented thereby, the amount of cash receivable upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the First Merger, that such holder of the Company Warrants would have received if such holder had
exercised his, her or its Company Warrant(s) immediately prior to the Effective Time.
(d) Resolutions and Other Company Actions. At or prior to the Effective Time, the Company,
the Company Board and any relevant sub-committee of the Company Board shall adopt any resolutions and take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.07, including for certainty, accelerating the vesting
of all Company Stock Options and all Company RSUs.
Section 2.08 Tax Treatment.
(a) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall instruct
its Israeli counsel, advisors and/or accountants to prepare and file with the ITA an application for a ruling in relation to the Israeli Tax treatment of Section 102 Securities and Section 3(i) Options confirming, among other things, that:
(i) the treatment of Section 102 Securities and the delivery of the Merger Consideration to the Section 102 Trustee prior to the lapse of the Section 102 trust period under applicable Law, will not be treated as a breach of the provisions of
Section 102 of the Ordinance and (ii) Parent, Merger Sub 1, and the Interim Surviving Entity and anyone acting on its behalf, including the Exchange Agent and the Israeli Paying Agent, shall be exempt from withholding Tax in relation to the
payment of the Merger Consideration to the Section 102 Trustee; which ruling may be subject to customary conditions regularly associated with such a ruling (the “Options Tax Ruling”). If the Options Tax
Ruling is not granted prior to the Closing, the Company shall seek to obtain prior to the Closing an interim Tax ruling confirming, among other things, that Parent, the Merger Subs, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Surviving Entity and the
Israeli Paying Agent shall be exempt from Israeli withholding Tax in relation to any payments and deliveries made to the Section 102 Trustee with respect to Section 102 Securities and Section 3(i) Options (the “Interim Options Ruling”). To the extent that the Interim Options Ruling is obtained, all references herein to the Options Tax Ruling shall be deemed to refer to such Interim Options Ruling, until such time that a final
definitive Options Tax Ruling is obtained.
(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.08(a), each of the Company and Parent shall cause
their respective Israeli counsel, advisors and/or accountants to coordinate all material activities, and to cooperate with each other, with respect to the preparation and filing of such applications and in the preparation of any written or
oral submissions that may be necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the Options Tax Ruling (including the Interim Options Ruling). The final text of the Interim Options Ruling and the Options Tax Ruling (or any other Tax ruling relating
hereto) and any application submitted to the ITA with respect to any Tax ruling shall be subject to the prior written consent of Parent or its counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Company
shall keep Parent reasonably informed of all material discussions and meetings with the ITA relating to the Interim Options Ruling and the Options Tax Ruling.
Section 2.09 Effect of the Second Merger on Capital Stock.
Upon the Second Merger becoming effective as provided in Section 1.01(b), as a result of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, the Merger Subs, the
Company, any Stockholder or the holder of any shares or capital stock of Parent or the Merger Subs:
(a) Surviving Common Stock. As a result of the Second Merger becoming effective, the Merger
Sub Parent shall be deemed to solely own all of the Interim Surviving Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Merger becoming effective (the “Surviving Common Stock”). The
Surviving Common Stock shall have the same rights, powers, and privileges as provided under the Articles of Association of the Surviving Entity and shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Entity.
(b) Conversion of Merger Sub 1 Capital Stock. Each ordinary share of Merger Sub 1 issued
and outstanding immediately prior the Second Merger shall cease to exist upon completion of the Second Merger and no consideration or payment shall be due or delivered in respect thereof.

Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to Parent such other information concerning the business and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries as Parent may reasonably request from time to time. Nothing in this Section 4.02 shall require any

Person shall, upon the request of the Person seeking access to the information, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the required consent of any third party to such access or disclosure); (iii) in the reasonable judgment of such

manner that does not result in a loss of attorney-client or other privilege). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would jeopardize the
protection of attorney-client privilege or contravene any Law (it being agreed that the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such jeopardy or
contravention). No investigation shall affect the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements contained herein, or limit or otherwise affect the remedies available to Parent or the Merger Subs pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) Confidentiality. The parties hereby agree that all information provided to the other
party or the other parties’ Representatives in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including any information obtained pursuant to Section 4.02(a), shall be treated in accordance with
the Confidentiality Agreement, dated December 5, 2024, between Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Parent and the Company shall comply with, and shall cause their respective

and the Merger Subs, and Parent and the Merger Subs shall make reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Company: (i) if any of its representations or warranties in this Agreement are, or become, untrue or inaccurate in any material respect;

cure any breach of, or noncompliance with, any other provision of this Agreement or limit the remedies available to the party receiving such notice.
Section 4.04 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and
Insurance.
(a) Indemnification. Parent and the Merger Subs agree that all rights to indemnification,
advancement of expenses, and exculpation by the Company now existing in favor of each individual who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof or who becomes prior to the Effective Time an officer or director of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party”) as provided in the Charter Documents of the Company as in effect on the date of this Agreement, or pursuant to any other written Contracts entered
into between the Company and any Indemnified Party substantially in the form attached to Section 4.04(a) of Company Disclosure Letter as in effect on the date of this Agreement, shall continue to bind the Surviving Entity in the Second
Merger, without further action, at the Effective Time and shall survive the Mergers and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. For a period of seven (7) years from the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity shall,
and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, cause the Charter Documents of the Surviving Entity to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses, and exculpation that are at least as favorable to the
Indemnified Parties as the indemnification, advancement of expenses, and exculpation provisions set forth in the Charter Documents of the Company as of the date of this Agreement. During such seven (7) year period, such provisions may not be
repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner except as required by applicable Law.
(b) Insurance. The Surviving Entity shall, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to:
(i) obtain and maintain in full force and effect for the benefit of the Indemnified Party, as of the Effective Time, “tail” insurance policies that provides coverage with a claims period of seven (7) years from the Effective Time with the
coverage and amounts and terms and conditions that are substantially equivalent to and in any event not less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties than the existing policies of the Company, in each case with respect to claims arising out of
or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that in no event will the
Surviving Entity be required to expend an annual premium for such coverage in excess of 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for such insurance prior to the date of this Agreement, which amount is set
forth in the Company Disclosure Letter.
(c) Survival. The obligations of Parent and the Surviving Entity under this Section 4.04
shall survive the consummation of the Mergers and shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect an Indemnified Party without the consent of such affected Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the
Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 4.04 applies and their respective successors and assigns shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 4.04, each of whom may enforce the provisions of this Section 4.04). In the event that
Parent or the Surviving Entity (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its
properties and assets to any Person, then Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include proper provision to be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be,
shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 4.04.

Agreement (including those contained in this Section 4.05), each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and
to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper, or advisable to consummate and make effective, and to satisfy all conditions to, as promptly as reasonably practicable (and in any event no later than the
End Date), the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including: (i) the obtaining of all necessary permits, waivers, and actions or nonactions from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations, filings, and

necessary consents or waivers from third parties, including for greater certainty any Governmental Entities; (iii) the performance of all covenants contained herein; and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary
to consummate the Mergers and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. The Company and Parent shall, subject to applicable Law, promptly: (A) cooperate and coordinate with the other in the taking of the actions contemplated by
clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) immediately above; and (B) supply the other with any information (subject to applicable privileges, confidentiality obligations and applicable Law) that may be reasonably required in order to effectuate the
taking of such actions. No party hereto shall take any action, or refrain from taking any commercially reasonable action, or permit the taking of any action which would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay or otherwise impede the
consummation of the First Merger or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(b) Notification. Each party hereto shall promptly inform the other party or parties
hereto, as the case may be, of any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If the Company, on the one hand, or Parent or the Merger Subs, on the other hand, receives a
request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then it shall use reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as
reasonably practicable and after consultation with the other party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request, and, if permitted by applicable Law and by any applicable Governmental Entity, provide the other party’s counsel with
advance notice and the opportunity to attend and participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing made thereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Parent nor the Company
shall commit to or agree with (or permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to commit to or agree with) any Governmental Entity to stay, toll, or extend any applicable waiting period including under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust
Laws, without the prior written consent of the other (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).
(c) Governmental Antitrust Authorities. Without limiting the generality of the undertakings
pursuant to Section 4.05(a) hereof, the parties hereto shall: (i) provide or cause to be provided as promptly as reasonably practicable to applicable Governmental Entities information and documents requested by any Governmental Entity as
necessary, proper, or advisable to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including preparing and filing any notification and report form and related material required under the HSR Act and any additional
consents and filings under any other Antitrust Laws as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement (provided, however, that such filing shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of
the date of this Agreement) and thereafter to respond as promptly as practicable to any request for additional information or documentary material that may be made under the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Laws; and (ii) subject to
the terms set forth in Section 4.05(d) hereof, use their reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are necessary or advisable to obtain prompt approval of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any
Governmental Entity or expiration of applicable waiting periods.
(d) Actions or Proceedings. In the event that any administrative or judicial action or
proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity or private party challenging the Mergers or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or any other agreement contemplated hereby, the parties
hereto shall consult and cooperate in all respects with each other and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any Order,
whether temporary, preliminary, or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of
the parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to expend funds, other than in immaterial amounts in connection with the above, or to defend, contest, or resist any action or proceeding, whether judicial or
administrative, or to take any action to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any Order, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) No Divestitures; Other Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
in this Agreement, none of Parent, the Merger Subs nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to, and the Company may not, without the prior written consent of Parent, become subject to, consent to, or offer or agree to, or
otherwise take any action with respect to, any requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement, or Order to: (i) sell, license, assign, transfer, divest, hold separate, or otherwise dispose of any assets, business, or portion of
business of the Company, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Surviving Entity, Parent, the Merger Subs, or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (ii) conduct, restrict, operate, invest, or otherwise change the assets, business, or portion of
the business of the Company, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Surviving Entity, Parent, the Merger Subs, or any of their respective Subsidiaries in any manner; or (iii) impose any restriction, requirement, or limitation on the operation of
the business or portion of the business of the Company, the Interim Surviving Entity, the Surviving Entity, Parent, the Merger Subs, or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if
requested by Parent, the Company will become subject to, consent to, or offer or agree to, or otherwise take any action with respect to, any such requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement, or Order so long as such
requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement, or Order (A) is only binding on the Company in the event the Closing occurs; and (B) in the opinion of the Company, is not, and shall not become, adverse to the Company or the
Holders in any manner prior to the Closing or in the event that the Closing does not occur.

The initial press release with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be a release mutually agreed to by the Company and Parent. Thereafter,
each of the Company and Parent agrees that no public release (including initial press releases), statement, announcement, or other disclosure concerning the Mergers or the other transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued by any party
without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), except as may be required by: (a) applicable Law; (b) court process; (c) the rules or regulations of any
applicable securities regulatory authority in Canada, Israel or the United States or the stock exchange on which the relevant entity is listed; or (d) any Governmental Entity to which the relevant party is subject or submits; provided, in each
such case, that the party making the release, statement, announcement, or other disclosure shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other party reasonable time to comment on such release, statement, announcement, or other
disclosure in advance of such issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.06 shall not apply to any release, statement, announcement, or other disclosure made with respect to: (i) a Change in
Recommendation issued or made in compliance with ARTICLE V; or (ii) the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby that is substantially similar (and identical in any material respect) to those in a previous release, statement,
announcement, or other disclosure made by the Company or Parent in accordance with this Section 4.06. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and for greater certainty, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Parent shall file
this Agreement together with a material change report related thereto, under Parent’s profile on SEDAR+ and the Company will file this Agreement together with the related press release on EDGAR.
Section 4.07 Anti-Takeover Statutes.
If any “control share acquisition”, “fair price”, “moratorium” or other anti-takeover Law becomes or is deemed to be applicable to Parent, the Merger Subs, the Company, the
Mergers, or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement, then each of the Company and the Company Board on the one hand, and Parent and its board of directors on the other hand, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to grant such
approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated hereby and otherwise act to render such anti-takeover Law inapplicable to the
foregoing.
Section 4.08 Stock Exchange Matters.
To the extent requested by Parent, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all
actions, and do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws (including the Companies Law) and the rules and policies of the NYSE American to enable the delisting by the Surviving
Entity of the shares of Company Common Stock from the NYSE American and the deregistration of the shares of Company Common Stock under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time.
Section 4.09 Certain Tax Matters.
Prior to Closing, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of the receipt of any written notice of the commencement of any, or any pending or threatened, Tax audit, exam,
litigation, claim or other Tax proceeding against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Matter”). The Company shall keep Parent fully informed regarding the progress and status
of each Pre-Closing Tax Matter, including by promptly proving copies of all correspondence received from, or provided to, the applicable Governmental Entity. The Company shall consult with Parent in good faith regarding any positions taken or
to be taken in connection with any Pre-Closing Tax Matter, including by allowing Parent to review and comment on any material submissions to be made to any Governmental Entity before the submission.
Section 4.10 Stockholder Litigation.
The Company shall promptly advise Parent in writing after becoming aware of any Legal Action commenced, or to the Company’s Knowledge threatened, against the Company or any of
its directors relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby) and shall keep Parent reasonably informed regarding any such Legal Action. The Company
shall: (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any such stockholder litigation; (b) keep Parent reasonably apprised on a prompt basis of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to
any such stockholder litigation, and provide Parent with the opportunity to consult with the Company regarding the defense of any such litigation, which advice the Company shall consider in good faith; and (c) not settle any such stockholder
litigation without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned). Parent shall promptly advise the Company in writing after becoming aware of any Legal Action commenced, or to
Parent’s Knowledge threatened, against Parent or any of its directors relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby) and shall keep the Company
reasonably informed regarding any such Legal Action. Parent shall: (i) give the Company the reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense and settlement of any such stockholder litigation to the extent such litigation may hinder or delay
the transactions contemplated hereby; and (ii) keep the Company reasonably apprised on a prompt basis of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to any such stockholder litigation, and provide the Company with the
opportunity to consult with Parent regarding the defense of any such litigation, which advice Parent shall consider in good faith.
Section 4.11 Obligations of Merger Subs.
Parent will take all action necessary to cause the Merger Subs to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the Mergers on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Section 4.12 Resignations.
Other than directors of the Company or a particular Subsidiary which Parent identifies it desires to remain in such capacity (such directors, the “Remaining Directors”), the Company shall, at the written request of Parent, cause each person who is a director of the Company or a Subsidiary to resign from such capacity, with such resignations to be effective as of the
Effective Time. The Company shall cause each person who is an officer of any Subsidiary of the Company (other than SatixFy Israel Ltd.), and in respect of which the Parent provides written instruction no later than five (5) Business Days prior
to the Closing Date, to resign from such capacity, with such resignations to be effective as of the Effective Time. It is acknowledged that Parent shall cause the Company to honor any severance, payment in lieu of notice or other payment
obligations owing to any resigning director or officer (or, in Israel, office holder) or to any Affiliate of the foregoing.
Section 4.13 Indebtedness; Permitted Indebtedness.
(a) Parent shall not incur any indebtedness for borrowed money (other than indebtedness of Parent
or any of its wholly owned Subsidiaries to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) that would reasonably be expected by Parent to prevent Parent or its Subsidiaries from repaying the Company’s outstanding indebtedness following the Closing.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 4.01, if the Company Board, acting in good faith, determines that it
requires additional financing of not more than the Financing Cap, the Company shall promptly notify Parent of this requirement to raise, in one or more tranches (not to exceed in the aggregate the Financing Cap), additional funds (each an “Additional Financing”). The terms of any such Additional Financing shall limit the use of funds raised in such Additional Financing to those matters set out in the Company Budget (the “Use Restriction”). The Company shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis as to the status of material developments and negotiations with respect to any Additional Financing. Prior
to completing an Additional Financing, the Company shall provide Parent with written notice (the “Financing Notice”) of its intention to proceed with an
Additional Financing which Financing Notice shall include the proposed definitive agreements in respect of such Additional Financing (which shall include the Use Restriction). Parent shall, by notice in writing to the Company (an “Election Notice”), have the right, exercisable within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Financing Notice (the “Response Period”), to elect (either directly
or through a Subsidiary) to complete the Additional Financing on terms, in the aggregate, not less favorable to the Company than the terms contained in the Financing Notice. If Parent provides an Election Notice during the Response Period,
the Company and Parent shall promptly complete the Additional Financing on the terms contained in the Election Notice and the Company shall not complete the Additional Financing with any other party. If Parent does not provide an Election
Notice during the Response Period, the Company shall, during the ten (10) day period following the expiration of the Response Period (but not thereafter, in which case the provisions of this Section 4.13 shall again apply), complete the
Additional Financing with the party named in the Financing Notice (such a financing, a “Permitted Financing”). The Company shall not amend or waive the terms of the Permitted Financing without the
written consent of Parent.
Section 4.14 Further Assurances.
(a) At and after the consummation of the Second Merger, the officers and directors of the
Surviving Entity shall be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of the Company or the applicable Merger Sub, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments, or assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of the
Company or the applicable Merger Sub, any other actions and things to vest, perfect, or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Entity any and all right, title, and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties, or assets
of the Company acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Entity as a result of, or in connection with, the Mergers.

incorporating or otherwise reflecting such confidential information regarding the Company.

Effective Time, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, through Representatives, or otherwise, and shall not permit any such Person to: (i) solicit, assist, initiate, facilitate or knowingly encourage (including by furnishing

(d) Except as expressly provided in Section 5.03, during the term of this Agreement, the Company
shall not, directly or indirectly, through any Representative, (i) make a Change in Recommendation; (ii) accept, approve, endorse, enter into or recommend, or propose publicly to accept, approve, endorse or recommend, any inquiry, proposal

Business Days after being requested by Parent or within five (5) Business Days after a public announcement of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes, or which may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition
Proposal shall be considered to be in violation of this Section 5.02(d); or (iii) enter into any agreement, other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement, in respect or in furtherance of any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes,
or which may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal.
(e) The Company shall advise its Representatives of the prohibitions set out in this ARTICLE V and
any violation of the restrictions set forth in this ARTICLE V by the Company or its Representatives is deemed to be a breach of this ARTICLE V by the Company.
Section 5.03 Permitted Discussions.
(a) The Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours following receipt thereof) notify
Parent first orally and then in writing in the event it receives or becomes aware of an Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or relates to an Acquisition Proposal (or any request for copies of, access to, or
disclosure of, any non-public or confidential information relating to the Company, in each case in connection with a potential Acquisition Proposal), including any Acquisition Proposal received prior to the Go-Shop End Date whether or not
resulting from the Company’s compliance with Section 5.01. Such notice shall include the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, the identity of the Person making such Acquisition
Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request, and shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis as to the status of material developments and negotiations with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal,

documents sent or communicated to the Company by or on behalf of any Person making such Acquisition Proposal, inquiry, proposal, offer or request.
(b) If at any time following the date of this Agreement (including prior to the Go-Shop End Date)
but prior to obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Company receives any written Acquisition Proposal, other than any Acquisition Proposal that resulted from a breach of ARTICLE V and the Company Board determines in good faith,
after receipt of a recommendation by both the Company Special Committee and Audit Committee and after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or would
reasonably be expected to result in, a Superior Proposal, if consummated in accordance with its terms, then the Company may, following compliance with Section 5.03(a):
(i) furnish information with respect to the Company to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal; and
(ii) enter into, participate, facilitate and maintain discussions or negotiations with, and otherwise co-operate with or assist, the Person making
such Acquisition Proposal,
provided, however, that the Company shall (A) not enter into any agreement with any Person in respect of an
Acquisition Proposal other than (1) as permitted in Section 5.03(c), and (2) an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement; and (B) promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) make available to Parent any non-public information concerning
the Company that is provided to any such Person or its Representatives that was not previously provided to Parent.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time following the
date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal not resulting from a breach of Section 5.02 that the Company Board concludes in good faith, after receipt of a
recommendation by both the Company Special Committee and Audit Committee and after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and outside legal advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal and, after, inter alia, consultation with the
Company’s outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action is or would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, the Company Board may, subject to compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.03(a) and
this Section 5.03(c), make a Change in Recommendation and enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, if and only if:
(i) the Company has provided Parent with: (i) a copy of the definitive
agreement proposed to be entered into in respect of the Superior Proposal, together with any material financing documents relating to such Superior Proposal, if supplied to the Company; and (ii) written confirmation from the Company that (y)
the Company Board has determined that such proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal (including the value of any non-cash consideration), and (z) the Company intends to enter into the definitive agreement in respect of the Superior Proposal;
(ii) at least five (5) Business Days
(the “Matching Period”) shall have elapsed from the date that is the later of: (A) the date on which Parent received written notice advising Parent that the Company Board has resolved, subject only to
compliance with this Section 5.03(c) and Section 5.04, to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; and (B) the date Parent has received all of the materials expressly specified in Section 5.03(c) (it being
understood that the Company shall promptly inform Parent of any amendment to the financial or other material terms of such Superior Proposal during such period);
(iii) the Person making the Superior Proposal acknowledges the terms of the MDA
Agreements; and
(iv) if Parent offered to amend the terms of this Agreement in accordance with
Section 5.04, the Company Board, after consultation with the Company’s financial advisors and receiving legal advice from its outside legal advisers, in good faith determined that the Acquisition Proposal giving rise to the Matching Period
continues to be a Superior Proposal.
(d) In the event the Company provides the notice contemplated by Section 5.03(c) on a date which
is less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Company Meeting, Parent shall be entitled to require the Company to adjourn or postpone the Company Meeting to a date that is not more than seven (7) Business Days after the date of the notice.
Section 5.04 Match Rights.
(a) During the Matching Period, the Company agrees that Parent and Merger Sub 2 shall have the
right, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of this Agreement. The Company Board shall promptly review any offer to amend the terms of this Agreement in good faith in order to determine, in its discretion in the exercise of its
fiduciary duties and in consultation with the Company’s financial and outside legal advisors, whether Parent’s and Merger Sub 2’s amended offer, upon acceptance by the Company, would cause the Superior Proposal giving rise to the Matching
Period to cease to be a Superior Proposal, and, if not, what further changes are required in order to cause the Superior Proposal giving rise to the Matching Period to cease to be a Superior Proposal, and advise Parent and Merger Sub 2 of
same and allow them (within additional three (3) Business Days) to further amend their Acquisition Proposal. If the Company Board determines that the Acquisition Proposal giving rise to such Matching Period does not continue to be a Superior
Proposal compared to this Agreement as it is proposed to be amended by Parent and Merger Sub 2 in accordance with the above procedures, the parties shall amend this Agreement to give effect to such amendments and the Company Board shall
promptly reaffirm the Board Recommendation.
(b) The Company acknowledges that each successive material modification to any Acquisition
Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of the requirements under ARTICLE V, provided, however, that
the Matching Period for such modified Acquisition Proposal shall be two (2) Business Days.
Section 5.05 Compliance with Tender Offer Rules.
Nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company Board or any committee thereof from: (a) disclosing to the Stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 and Rule
14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act (or any communication required under Israeli Law with substantially similar content) or a position contemplated by Section 329 of the Companies Law with regard to an Acquisition Proposal; (b) making
any other disclosure if the party determines, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to make such disclosure would be in breach of, or be inconsistent with, applicable Law; provided, however, that any public disclosure (other than any “stop, look and listen” statement made under Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act or any communication under Israeli Law with substantially similar
content) by the Company or the Company Board (or any committee thereof) relating to any determination, position or other action by the Company, the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to any Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed
to be a Change in Recommendation unless the Company Board expressly and publicly reaffirms the Board Recommendation in such disclosure.
ARTICLE VI
COMPANY MEETING AND PROXY STATEMENT
Section 6.01 Proxy Statement / Company Meeting.
(a) Preparation of Proxy Statement. In connection with the Company Meeting, as promptly as
practicable following the date hereof, and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the date hereof, the Company shall prepare and submit with the SEC a letter to the shareholders, notice of meeting, proxy statement, and forms of
proxy to be used for the Company Meeting, and any supplements thereto prepared in accordance with this Agreement (collectively, the “Proxy Statement”, and the date of submission to the SEC referred to
as the “Submission Date”). The Company shall cause the Proxy Statement to comply with Israeli Law and all other applicable Laws. Subject to applicable Law, the Company shall cooperate and consult with
Parent and the Merger Subs in the Company’s preparation of the Proxy Statement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Parent and the Merger Subs will furnish the Company with the information relating to it required to be
set forth in the Proxy Statement by applicable Law. The Proxy Statement shall include: (i) a statement confirming which Stockholders have entered into a Voting and Support Agreement, the number of shares held by each such Stockholder, their
percentage holdings of all outstanding Company Common Stock and a summary description of the Voting and Support Agreement; (ii) the Board Recommendation, provided there has been no Change in Recommendation and (iii) the material factors
considered by the Company Board in evaluating the First Merger. Subject to applicable Law, no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by the Company without Parent’s prior written consent (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and without providing Parent and its advisors the opportunity to review and comment thereon, and the Company will give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes
suggested by Parent or its counsel.
(b) Accurate Disclosure. Each of Parent and the Company shall supply such information
specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement necessary so that, at the date it is first mailed to the Company’s shareholders or at the time of the Company Meeting, the Proxy Statement shall not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.
(c) Company Meeting. The Company shall take all action necessary to establish a record date
for, duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold the Company Meeting for the sole purpose of obtaining the Requisite Stockholder Approval (and approving any other matter ancillary thereto or ancillary to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or required under applicable Law or as agreed by Parent) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Submission Date such that that the Company Meeting will be held on a mutually agreeable date not to be later than 45 days after the
Submission Date (provided, however, if the Company shall conduct “broker searches” as reasonably requested by the Parent or solicitation agent in accordance with Section 6.01(d) and such “broker searches” actually require the date of the
Company Meeting to occur more than 45 days after the Submission Date, then the Company Meeting will be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the Submission Date) provided that, in each case, the Company may fail to use such efforts if
there has been a Change in Recommendation. Subject to ARTICLE V hereof, including in the case of a Change in Recommendation provided therein, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval,
including: (i) solicit from the Stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and approval of the Mergers and against any resolution or matter that is inconsistent with the Requisite Stockholder Approval or the transactions
contemplated hereby; and (ii) take all other actions necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of the Stockholders required by applicable Law to obtain such approval. Except to the extent that the Company Board shall have effected
a Change in Recommendation in accordance with ARTICLE V hereof, the Proxy Statement shall include the Board Recommendation. The Company shall keep Parent and the Merger Subs updated with respect to proxy solicitation results as requested by
Parent or the Merger Subs (including providing copies or access to information regarding the Company Meeting generated by transfer agents, dealers and proxy advisory firms), any written opposition to the Mergers by any Stockholder and any
written communications sent by or on behalf of the Company to any Stockholder opposition to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Once the Company Meeting has been called and noticed, the Company shall not postpone or adjourn the
Company Meeting without the consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), other than: (A) in order to obtain a quorum of Stockholders; (B) if, as of the time for which the Company Meeting is
scheduled, the Company reasonably determines in good faith that there are insufficient shares of Company Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to obtain the Requisite Stockholder Approval; (C) as reasonably determined by the
Company, after receiving legal advice, it is necessary to comply with applicable Law or request from the SEC or the Israel Securities Authority; (D) to allow sufficient time under applicable Laws for the distribution of any required or
appropriate supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement; or (E) as provided for in Section 5.03(d); provided, however, that the Company Meeting shall not
be adjourned for more than 25 calendar days in the aggregate without the consent of Parent (it being understood that such limit shall not apply to, and Company Meeting shall be adjourned or postponed every time, the circumstances described in
the foregoing clauses (C) and (D) exist).
(d) Solicitation Agent. Provided no Change in Recommendation has occurred, the Company
shall permit Parent to, on behalf of management of the Company, directly or through a soliciting dealer, actively solicit proxies in favor of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, which right shall be disclosed in the Proxy Statement and the
Company shall furnish to Parent such information as it reasonably requests in connection therewith. If requested by the Parent or a solicitation agent, the Company shall conduct such “broker searches” following the record date for the Company
Meeting as may be reasonably requested by the Parent or solicitation agent.
Section 6.02 Additional Agreements.
(a) Furnishing of Information. Each party hereto will reasonably assist and cooperate with
the other parties in the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement. Each party hereto shall furnish to the other party all information concerning such Person and its Affiliates required by the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act to be set forth in the Proxy Statement or otherwise reasonably requested by the other parties. Each of Parent and the Company shall promptly correct any information provided by it for use in the Proxy Statement if and to the extent that
such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect. Each of Parent and the Company shall promptly take all steps necessary to amend or supplement the Proxy Statement and to cause the Proxy Statement, as so amended
or supplemented, to be filed with the SEC and disseminated to the Stockholders as and to the extent required by applicable Law. The Company agrees to cooperate with Parent and Parent’s counsel and accountants in requesting and obtaining
appropriate opinions, consents, and letters from financial advisors and the Company’s independent auditors in connection with the Proxy Statement.
(b) SEC Comments. The Company shall promptly provide Parent and its counsel with any comments or other
communications, whether written or oral, that the Company or its counsel may receive from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Proxy Statement promptly after the receipt of such comments. Prior to the filing of the Proxy Statement with
the SEC (including in each case any amendment or supplement thereto) or the dissemination thereof to Stockholders, or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement, the Company shall provide Parent and its
counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such Proxy Statement, or response (including the proposed final versions thereof) and the Company shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any comments made by Parent or
its counsel.
Section 6.03 Merger Proposal; Registration.
(a) Subject to the Companies Law, as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this
Agreement, each of the Company and the Merger Subs shall (and Parent shall cause the Merger Subs to), as applicable, take the following actions within the timeframes set forth in this Section 6.03:
(i) cause a merger proposal (in the Hebrew language) reflecting the First
Merger or Second Merger (as the case may be), this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (including a “going private” notice) in a form complying with the Companies Law and reasonably acceptable to the parties (the “Merger Proposal”) to be executed in accordance with Section 316 of the Companies Law;
(ii) deliver the Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar within three (3)

Registrar, and (z) in a popular newspaper in New York, as may be required by applicable Law, within three Business Days after the date on which the Merger Proposal is delivered to the Companies Registrar if required by applicable Law; (B)
within four (4) Business Days from the date of submitting the Merger Proposal to the Companies Registrar, send a notice, in a form acceptable to the parties, by registered mail to all of its “Substantial Creditors” (as such term is defined in
the Israeli Companies Regulations (Merger), 5760-2000 (the “Merger Regulations”)) of which the Company or a Merger Sub, as applicable, is aware, in which it shall state that a Merger Proposal was
submitted to the Companies Registrar and that the creditors may review the Merger Proposal at such additional locations, if such locations were determined in the notice referred to in clause (A) above and at such times stated in the notice
referred to in clause (A) above;
(v) promptly after the Company and a Merger Sub, as applicable, shall have

Section of, Exhibit to, Article of, or Schedule of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (i) to an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or
other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (ii) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto

word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and does not simply mean “if.” A reference in this Agreement to $ or dollars is to U.S. dollars. The definitions of terms herein shall
apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to
any particular provision of this Agreement. References to “made available” or “provided to” (or words of similar import) when referring to any document or information being made available by the Company to Parent or a Merger Sub shall mean
posted to the electronic data room established in respect to the Mergers at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of this Agreement.

Law, waive compliance with any of the covenants, agreements, or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a party to any extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such
party. The failure of any party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise will not constitute a waiver of such rights.
Section 9.05 Survival.
None of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered under this Agreement will survive the Effective Time. This Section 9.05
does not limit any covenant or agreement of the parties contained in this Agreement which, by its terms, contemplates performance after the Effective Time. The Confidentiality Agreement will survive termination of this Agreement in accordance

State of Delaware, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such Legal Action, in any state or federal court within the State of Delaware; provided,
however, that with respect to any Israeli Law Matters, each of the parties hereto (y) consents to submit itself to the sole jurisdiction of the courts of Tel-Aviv, Israel, and (z) agrees that it will not
attempt to deny or defeat such sole jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. Each of

and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim, or otherwise, in any Legal Action with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in
respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder: (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with

aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise); and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (i) the suit, action, or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the
venue of such suit, action, or proceeding is improper, or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial
jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 9.07 in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.09.

This Agreement (including all exhibits, annexes, and schedules referred to herein), the Company Disclosure Letter and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire
agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this

Section 9.11 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.
This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns and respective successors and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or

Section 9.13 Assignment.
Neither Parent or the Merger Subs, on the one hand, nor the Company on the other hand, may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
other party (Parent in the case of Parent and the Merger Subs), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed; provided, however,
that prior to the Effective Time, either Merger Sub may, without the prior written consent of the Company, assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to Parent or to one or more of Parent’s direct or indirect wholly owned
Subsidiaries, provided that under no circumstances shall such assignment be permitted if such assignment would reasonably be expected to: (i) prevent, impair, materially hinder or materially delay the consummation of the Mergers and the
transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) result in adverse tax implications for the Holders. Subject to the preceding sentence, no assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder and this Agreement shall be
binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns..

and Warranties.
None of the representations and warranties in this Agreement or in any instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time. This Section 9.15 shall

Opinion of TD Securities (USA) LLC
April 1, 2025
The Board of Directors
SatixFy Communications Ltd.
12 Hamada Street, Rehovot 7670314
Israel
The Board of Directors:
In your capacity as the Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”) of SatixFy Communications Ltd. (“SatixFy”), you have requested our opinion (the “Opinion”), as investment bankers, as to
the fairness, from a financial point of view, to holders of the ordinary shares, no par value per share, of SatixFy (“SatixFy Ordinary Shares”), other than as specified below, of the Merger Consideration (as defined below) to be received by
such holders pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) proposed to be entered into among SatixFy, MDA Space Ltd. (“MDA Space”), MANTISRAEL OPERATIONS 1 Ltd., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MDA
Space (“Merger Sub 1”), and MANTISRAEL OPERATIONS 2 Ltd., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MDA Space (“Merger Sub 2” and, together with Merger Sub 1, the “Merger Subs”). As more fully described in the Merger Agreement, and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth therein, (i) Merger Sub 2 will be merged with and into SatixFy, with SatixFy surviving such merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Merger Sub 1 (the “First Merger” and, such surviving corporation, the
“Interim Surviving Entity”), pursuant to which each outstanding SatixFy Ordinary Share will be converted into the right to receive US$2.10 per share in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), and (ii) immediately following the First Merger, as
part of a single integrated plan, Merger Sub 1 will be merged with and into SatixFy (as the Interim Surviving Entity), with SatixFy surviving such merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MDA Space (the “Second Merger” and, together
with the First Merger, the “Merger”). The terms and conditions of the Merger are more fully set forth in the Merger Agreement.
TD Securities (USA) LLC (“we” or “TD Cowen”) and its affiliates provide investment and commercial banking, lending, asset management and other financial and non-financial services to a wide
range of corporations and individuals and, as part of our investment banking business, are continually engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings,
secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and valuations for corporate and other purposes. In the ordinary course of business, TD Cowen and/or its affiliates or employees hold or at any time may hold long
or short positions, and trade or may trade or otherwise effect transactions, in debt, equity, equity-linked and/or other securities or loans of SatixFy, MDA Space and/or their respective affiliates for the accounts of TD Cowen and/or its
affiliates or employees and for the accounts of customers. We and our affiliates also conduct research on securities and may, in the ordinary course of business, provide research reports and investment advice to our clients on investment
matters, including matters with respect to the Merger or SatixFy, MDA Space and/or their respective affiliates.
We are acting as financial advisor to SatixFy in connection with the First Merger and will receive a fee from SatixFy for our services, a significant portion of which is contingent upon
consummation of the First Merger. We also will receive a fee in connection with this Opinion. In addition, SatixFy has agreed to reimburse our expenses and indemnify us for certain liabilities that may arise out of our engagement. As the
Board of Directors is aware, although TD Cowen currently is not providing, and during the two years preceding the date of this Opinion has not provided, financial advisory and/or other investment banking services to SatixFy unrelated to the
Merger or to MDA Space, TD Cowen in the future may provide services to SatixFy, MDA Space and/or their respective affiliates and may receive compensation for such services.
In connection with our Opinion, we have reviewed and considered such financial and other matters as we have deemed relevant, including, among other things:
• |
an execution version, provided to us on April 1, 2025, of the Merger Agreement;
|
• |
certain publicly available financial and other information for SatixFy and certain other relevant financial and operating data furnished to TD Cowen by the management of SatixFy;
|
• |
certain internal financial forecasts, estimates and other information concerning SatixFy provided by the management of SatixFy;
|
• |
discussions we have had with certain members of the management of SatixFy concerning the historical and current business operations, financial condition and prospects of SatixFy and such other
matters that we deemed relevant;
|
• |
certain operating results of, and financial and stock market information for, SatixFy and certain other publicly traded companies that we deemed relevant;
|
• |
certain financial terms of the First Merger as compared to the financial terms, to the extent publicly available, of certain business combinations that we deemed relevant; and
|
• |
such other information, financial studies, analyses and investigations and such other factors that we deemed relevant for the purposes of this Opinion.
|
In conducting our review and arriving at our Opinion, we have, at your direction, assumed and relied, without independent investigation, upon the accuracy and completeness of all financial
and other information provided to us by SatixFy or that is publicly available or was otherwise reviewed by us. We have not undertaken any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or reasonableness, or independent verification, of any
such information. We have relied upon the representations of SatixFy that all information provided to us by SatixFy is accurate and complete in all material respects and we expressly disclaim any undertaking or obligation to advise any
person of any change in any fact or matter affecting our Opinion of which we become aware after the date hereof.
We have been advised, and have assumed, that the financial forecasts, estimates and other information concerning SatixFy that we have been directed to utilize for purposes of our analyses and
Opinion were reasonably prepared by the management of SatixFy on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of such management as to the future performance of SatixFy and the other matters covered
thereby, and that such financial forecasts, estimates and other information provide a reasonable basis for our analyses and Opinion. We have relied on the assessments of the management of SatixFy as to, among other things, (i) SatixFy’s
development and manufacturing of chips and digital satellite communications systems, its technology and other intellectual property and proprietary rights, including the viability of and risks associated with such technology and other
intellectual property, and the trends and developments in the digital satellite communications industry impacting SatixFy and its business and operations, and (ii) the liquidity needs of, and capital resources available to, SatixFy and
contemplated financings expected to be undertaken by SatixFy to obtain the capital resources necessary for its business and operations, including the aggregate amount and timing of such financings. We have assumed that there will be no
developments with respect to any such matters that would have an adverse effect on SatixFy or the Merger or that otherwise would be meaningful in any respect to our analyses or Opinion. We express no opinion as to the financial forecasts,
estimates and other information utilized in our analyses or the assumptions on which they are based.
In addition, we have assumed that there have been no material changes in the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects of SatixFy since the dates
of the last financial statements made available to us. We have not made or obtained any independent evaluations, valuations or appraisals of the assets or liabilities (contingent, accrued, derivative, off-balance sheet or otherwise) of
SatixFy or any other entity, nor have we been furnished with such materials. We have not conducted nor have we assumed any obligation to conduct any physical inspection of the properties or facilities of SatixFy or any other entity. We also
have not evaluated the solvency or fair value of SatixFy or any other entity under any state, federal or foreign laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. In addition, we have not undertaken an independent evaluation of any
actual or potential litigation, settlements, governmental or regulatory proceedings or investigations, possible unasserted claims or other contingent liabilities to which SatixFy or any other entity may be a party or subject. Our Opinion
does not address any legal, tax, accounting or regulatory matters related to the Merger Agreement or the Merger, as to which we have assumed that SatixFy and the Board of Directors have received such advice from legal, tax, accounting and
regulatory advisors as each has determined appropriate.
Our Opinion addresses only the fairness of the Merger Consideration (to the extent expressly specified herein) from a financial point of view and as of the date hereof, without regard to
individual circumstances of specific holders of SatixFy Ordinary Shares (whether by virtue of control, voting or consent, liquidity, contractual arrangements, vesting of shares or otherwise) that may distinguish such holders or the securities
of SatixFy held by such holders, and our Opinion does not in any way address proportionate allocation or relative fairness among such holders, holders of any other securities of SatixFy or otherwise. We express no view as to any other aspect
or implication of the Merger, including, without limitation, any voting and support agreement, vesting of price adjustment shares or other securities of SatixFy or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding entered into in connection
with the Merger or otherwise. Our Opinion is necessarily based upon economic and market conditions and other circumstances as they exist and can be evaluated by us on the date hereof. It should be understood that although subsequent
developments may affect our Opinion, we do not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm our Opinion and we expressly disclaim any responsibility to do so. As the Board of Directors is aware, the industry in which SatixFy operates
and SatixFy’s business and securities have experienced and may continue to experience volatility and disruptions, and we express no view as to any potential effects of such volatility or disruptions on SatixFy or the Merger.
We have not considered any potential legislative or regulatory changes currently being considered or recently enacted by the United States or any foreign government, or any domestic or
foreign regulatory body, or any changes in accounting methods or generally accepted accounting principles that may be adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or any similar foreign
regulatory body or board. In connection with our engagement, we were not requested to, and we did not, solicit third-party indications of interest in all or a part of SatixFy; however, as permitted by the terms of the Merger Agreement, we
have been requested by the Board of Directors to solicit third-party indications of interest in SatixFy during a specified period following announcement of the proposed Merger in accordance with the provisions of the Merger Agreement.
For purposes of rendering our Opinion, we have assumed in all respects relevant to our analyses that the representations and warranties of each party contained in the Merger Agreement are
true and correct, that each party will perform all of the covenants and agreements required to be performed by it under the Merger Agreement and that all conditions to the consummation of the Merger will be satisfied without waiver thereof.
We also have assumed that the final form of the Merger Agreement will be substantially similar to the execution version reviewed by us. We further have assumed that all governmental, regulatory and other consents and approvals contemplated
by the Merger Agreement will be obtained and that in the course of obtaining any such consents or approvals no restrictions will be imposed or waivers made that would have an adverse effect on SatixFy or the Merger. In addition, we have
assumed that the Merger will be consummated in a manner that complies with the provisions of applicable securities laws and all other applicable state, federal or foreign statutes, rules and regulations.
It is understood that our Opinion is intended for the benefit and use of the Board of Directors (in its capacity as such) in its evaluation of the Merger Consideration. Our Opinion may not
be disclosed, referred to, or communicated (in whole or in part) to any third party for any purpose whatsoever except with our prior written approval. However, our Opinion may be reproduced in full in any proxy statement relating to the
Merger that is required to be mailed to securityholders of SatixFy. Our Opinion does not constitute a recommendation to the Board of Directors on whether or not to approve the Merger or to any securityholder or any other person as to how to
vote or act with respect to the Merger or otherwise. We are not expressing any opinion as to the actual value, price or trading range of SatixFy Ordinary Shares or any other securities of SatixFy following announcement or consummation of the
Merger. We have not been requested to opine as to, and our Opinion does not in any manner address, SatixFy’s underlying business decision to effect the Merger or the relative merits of the Merger as compared to other business strategies or
transactions that might be available to SatixFy. In addition, we have not been requested to opine as to, and our Opinion does not in any manner address, (i) the fairness of the amount or nature of the compensation to the officers, directors
or employees, or class of such persons, of any parties to the Merger relative to the Merger Consideration or otherwise, (ii) the fairness of the Merger Consideration (other than as expressly set forth herein) or the Merger to the holders of
any class of securities, creditors or other constituencies of SatixFy or (iii) whether MDA Space or Merger Subs have sufficient cash, available lines of credit or other sources of funds for the payment of the Merger Consideration at the
closing of the Merger.
The issuance of this Opinion was reviewed and approved by TD Cowen’s Fairness Opinion Review Committee.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, including the various assumptions and limitations set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof, the Merger Consideration to be
received by holders of SatixFy Ordinary Shares (other than, as applicable, MDA Space, Merger Subs, and their respective affiliates) pursuant to the Merger Agreement is fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders.
Very truly yours,
TD SECURITIES (USA) LLC
