Magic Software Enterprises Ltd.

Compensation Policy for Office Holders

Background and Basic Principles for the Compensation Policy

Introduction

1.1

The purpose of the Compensation Policy is to define, describe and specify Magic Software Enterprises Ltd.’s (“Magic” or the “Company”) overall compensation strategy for the Company’s “Office Holders”, as defined in the Companies Law (as defined below) (collectively, the “Office Holders”), and to provide guidelines for setting compensation of the Company’s Office Holders. The terms of the Compensation Policy of the Company and its approval are subject to the provisions of Section 267A of the Companies Law - 1999 (the “Companies Law”).

1.2

The adoption of this Compensation Policy does not and will not entitle any Office Holder of the Company to receive any elements of compensation described herein. The elements of compensation to which an Office Holder will be entitled will be exclusively those that are determined specifically in relation to him or her in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated thereunder and specifically approved by the authorized corporate organs of the Company, i.e., the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors and/or the General Meeting of Shareholders, as applicable (the “Authorized Corporate Organs”).

1.3

In case of an Office Holder receiving compensation that is lower than the compensation that may be provided under this policy, this shall not be deemed to be a deviation or an exception from this Compensation Policy, and such terms of employment will not require the approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders (which may be required with respect to approval of terms that deviate from this Compensation Policy).

1.4

In the event that the compensation to be paid to any Office Holder pursuant to the Compensation Policy in a given year exceeds, by less than ten percent (10%), the applicable percentage or amount otherwise stated herein as an annual limit for such Office Holder, this Compensation Policy will be deemed amended for the mere sake of increasing the applicable compensation limit for such Office Holder, so that the compensation to be paid will not be deemed a deviation from the terms of this Compensation Policy.

The Adoption of the Compensation Policy; Approval of Particular Compensation and Changes Thereto:

2.1

This Compensation Policy has been approved by the Compensation Committee on and by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 5, 2025 and by the general meeting of the Company’s shareholders on [________] and it shall replace the Compensation Policy for Office Holders approved by the general meeting of the shareholders of the Company on February 25, 2021, subject to the provisions of Section 267A(c) of the Companies Law.

2.2

The provisions and implementation of this Compensation Policy are subject to Magic’s Articles of Association and any applicable law in any territory in which Magic operates and that affects the provisions of this Compensation Policy. The Compensation Policy constitutes Magic’s Executive Officers Compensation Policy as defined in section 267a (a) of the Companies Law, and as required by the Companies Law (Amendment No. 20)-2012, and will govern and set the guidelines for the compensation plans for all Office Holders. The Compensation Policy may be ratified from time to time in accordance with the dates stipulated in Section 267A(d) of the Companies Law.

2.3

Without limiting the foregoing, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors shall review the Compensation Policy, from time to time, and monitor its implementation, and may recommend to the Board and shareholders to amend the Compensation Policy as they deem necessary from time to time.

2.4

Office Holders of the Company will be entitled to the compensation components detailed in this Compensation Policy only after the granting thereof is duly approved by the Authorized Corporate Organs in accordance with any applicable law.

Principles of the Compensation Policy and its Purposes

3.1

Magic’s goals in setting the Compensation Policy for the Office Holders are to attract, motivate and retain highly experienced personnel who will contribute to Magic’s growth and success in the future and enhance shareholder value.

3.2

The Compensation Policy is designed to offer Office Holders a compensation package that is competitive with other companies in our industry and to preserve talented personnel in senior management positions in the Company, while taking into consideration market data of peer companies.

Components of Office Holder Compensation

The compensation of an Office Holder may include any of the following components:

4.1

Fixed Cash Compensation (the “Fixed Cash Compensation Component”)-

4.1.1

Fixed Cash Compensation (or base salary) - the Fixed Cash Compensation Component is intended to compensate the Office Holder for the time he or she invests in executing his or her current duties and tasks in the Company.

4.1.2

In exceptional circumstances - fixed payment for a fixed period and conditional on continued employment, for the retention of the Office Holder.

4.1.3

Various additional related benefits and perquisites - these additional related benefits and perquisites, arising in part from the provisions of the law (for example, provisions for social welfare benefits such as pension fund and life and disability insurance, vacation days, sick leave, convalescence pay, etc.), in part are customary to office holders in similar positions (for example, contributions to an education fund) and in part are intended to compensate the employee for expenses incurred by him or her in fulfilling such duties (for example, car expenses, mobile phone, parking, subscriptions to relevant literature, certain membership fees, travel expenses per diem etc.).

4.2

Variable Compensation Component - this component is intended to create a link between the performance of the Company and the performance of its Office Holders.

4.2.1

Variable Cash Compensation Component - this component for Office Holders other than directors is aimed to compensate and incentivize an Office Holder for his or her achievements and his or her contribution for obtaining the goals of the Company and its work program during the course of the period for which it is paid. The Variable Cash Compensation Component may include an annual bonus, a Management by Objectives (MBO), Objective Target Bonus (OTB) and Sales Commission or other similar bonuses as applicable to each Office Holder (the “Variable Cash Compensation Component”). The Company believes that the weight of this component out of the overall compensation package of an Office Holder should be substantive so that it clearly links between the performance of the Office Holder and his or her contribution to the performance of the Company, in a manner that will allow him or her to benefit from the financial success of the Company in the long term, and vice versa.

4.2.2

Equity Based Compensation Component – this component is aimed to align compensation of the Office Holders with the long term goals of Magic and with creating and increasing shareholder value (as reflected in the market price of the Company’s shares, which are traded on both the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and NASDAQ).This compensation creates a uniformity of interests between the shareholders of the Company and its Office Holders, assists in retaining Office Holders holding key positions in the Company and in maintaining their motivation, and constitutes a useful risk management tool for the Company.

Office Holders of the Company

5.1

This Compensation Policy shall apply to the Company’s “Office Holders” as such term is defined by the Companies Law.

The Ratio between the Variable Components and the Fixed Components

6.1

At the time of the approval of the compensation of the Office Holders, the Authorized Corporate Organs of the Company will examine, among other factors, the entire compensation package in order to guarantee that the various components create the correct balance of benefits for the relevant Office Holder.

6.2

The weight of the variable components (the Variable Cash Compensation Component and the Equity Based Compensation Component) (the “Variable Components”) out of the total compensation amount which is to be granted for any year will not be greater than 2/3 (or 67%)¹ (two thirds or sixty-seven percent) for each Office Holder and may vary from one Office Holder to the other.

6.3

Notwithstanding any provision herein, the aggregate annual compensation payable to any Office Holder of the Company—comprising the Fixed Cash Compensation Component, the Variable Cash Compensation Component, and the Equity-Based Compensation Component—shall not exceed a total amount of NIS 4,500,000² per calendar year, in the case of any Office Holder other than the Chief Executive Officer. In respect of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the total annual compensation shall not exceed NIS 5,500,000² per calendar year.

Employment of the Office Holders and Their Relationship to Other Company Employees

7.1

In setting the terms of the Compensation Policy, the Company aims to compensate its Office Holders for their contribution to its business success over time, taking into account the extensive responsibility and authority imposed upon them. The Compensation Committee and the Board have examined the ratio between the terms of service and employment of Office Holders and the average and median cost of employment of the other Company employees and contractors and finds the ratio appropriate and reasonable, taking into account each of the following factors:

(i)

the gap between the responsibility and contribution of Office Holders to the Company’s results, on the one hand, and the corresponding responsibility and contribution of other employees of the Company, on the other hand;

(ii)

the nature of the Company, and its size, value, and scale of activity in various fields;

(iii)

the fact that the Office Holders, insofar as quantities are concerned, represent a small part of the total work force of the Company group;

(iv)

the mixture of manpower and the Company’s field of activity; and

(v)

the ratio does not adversely impact labor relations within the Company. an

With respect to the CEO, the weight of the Variable Components may reach approximately 80% (eighty percent) of the total compensation amount.

The amounts shall be linked to the Israeli Consumer Price Index, as published by the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics from time to time or by any other official Israeli governmental authority. The basis CPI linkage shall be based on the known CPI as of May 1, 2025.

Fixed Cash Compensation

Guidelines for Determining the Fixed Cash Compensation Component, its Examination and Updating

8.1

The Fixed Cash Compensation Component will vary among Office Holders and will be individually determined according to an Office Holder’s respective performance, educational background, prior business experiences, seniority, aptitude, qualifications, role and responsibility and previous salary agreements signed with the Office Holder. At the time of determining the fixed fee, an examination will also be made of an Office Holder’s education, skills, expertise, professional experience, and achievements.

8.2

The fixed fee, in terms of the gross salary of the Office Holders, will not be greater than the amounts detailed below:³

Rank	Maximum⁴
Chief Executive Officer	NIS160,000
Chief Executive Officer or President of a Substantive Subsidiary in Israel, Division Manger	NIS125,000
Other Officeholders	NIS100,000
Chief Executive Officer of a Substantive Subsidiary Overseas	$40,000

8.3

Without derogating from Section 8.2 above, the Company may determine a link between the fee of an Office Holder and the increase in the consumer price index per each financial quarter.

Fringe Benefits

9.1

Office Holders of the Company are entitled to social welfare conditions and benefits in accordance with applicable law and to various additional related benefits and perquisites, which are customary for office holders in similar positions, such as life insurance, pension fund, social benefits, recuperation payment, education fund, sick leave, vacation, disability insurance, etc. Such benefits and perquisites may vary depending on geographic location and other circumstances.

9.2

Furthermore, Office Holders of the Company may be entitled to further fringe benefits as is acceptable at the Company and at similar companies in the Company’s industry, including car expense, telephone, communications and computing, relevant literature (newspapers), certain membership fees etc., provided that the total fringe benefits in excess of those granted in accordance with applicable law is not greater than 20% (twenty percent) of the Fixed Cash Compensation Component.

10.

Payment to an Office Holder Conditional on Continued Tenure

In exceptional circumstances, in order to preserve the continued employment of an Office Holder at the Company, an Office Holder may be entitled, in addition to his or her salary, to an amount of up to NIS 500,000 per annum for a limited period of time, which payment shall be conditional on the continued employment of such Office Holder at the Company. This payment is subject to the approval of the relevant corporate organs of the Company and will not exceed 20% of the maximum value of the Variable Cash Compensation Component of an Office Holder, as provided under Section 11.3 below.

The following detailed amounts do not include the additional fringe benefits detailed in Section 9 below and do not include payments for Office Holders which are subject to the continued engagement as detailed in Section 10 below. In the event that the services of an Office Holder are provided via a personal management or service company and not as an employee of Magic, the fees paid to such personal management or service company will reflect, to the extent determined by Magic in the applicable service agreement, the Fixed Cash Compensation Component and the additional related benefits and perquisites (plus applicable taxes such as Value Added Tax), in accordance with the guidelines of the Compensation Policy.

⁴

Annual Grant

11.

Guidelines for Determining the Variable Cash Compensation Component, Threshold Conditions, Installments, Setoff and Cap

11.1

Threshold - unless stipulated otherwise in this policy, the grant of Variable Cash Compensation, as detailed in Section 11.3 below, with respect to any calendar year is subject to Magic, a Magic subsidiary or a Magic division (as applicable to the relevant Office Holder’s responsibilities) achieving, for the calendar year to which the Variable Cash Compensation relates, an EBITDA (or net income, as applicable) which is no less than 75% of 110% of the EBITDA (or net income, as applicable) for the preceding calendar year. “EBITDA” (or net income, as applicable) means the EBITDA (or net income, as applicable) calculated based on the audited financial statements for the respective calendar year of Magic, a Magic subsidiary, or a Magic division (as applicable to the relevant Office Holder’s responsibilities) (the “Normative Profit”).

11.2

Long Term Spreading – the entitlement to the Variable Cash Compensation as detailed in Section 12 below will be examined over a period of three (3) consecutive years, such that an Office Holder shall not be entitled to 20% (twenty percent) of his or her Annual Variable Compensation if the average EBITDA in such three (3) year period is lower than the Normative Profit.

11.3

Maximum value for the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component - the annual monetary grant to be paid to an Office Holder will not exceed an amount equal to 150% (one hundred and fifty percent) of the fixed component of that Office Holder, except for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or for extraordinary events in which such grant will not exceed an amount equal to 200% (two hundred percent) of the fixed component of that Office Holder.

12.

Indices for Determining the Annual Variable Cash Compensation

12.1

Annual Variable Cash Compensation to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer

12.1.1

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer may be entitled to an annual Variable Cash Compensation Component in an amount equivalent up to 3.3% (three and three-tenths of a percent) of the annual net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, as shall be published in the Company’s consolidated and audited annual financial statements (the “Net Annual Income”). The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company may, in calculating the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component, determine that the impact of non-recurring events or events which mainly bear an accounting impact (e.g., amortizations of intangible assets or revaluations of contingent liabilities due to acquisition of activities) will be neutralized.

12.1.2

Payment of an annual Variable Cash Compensation Component as stipulated in Section 12.1.1 shall be subject to the terms of Sections 11 and 6.3 above, including the threshold conditions and the maximum amount set forth therein.

12.2

Annual Variable Cash Compensation to Other Office Holders

12.2.1

Subject to the provision for determining the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component set forth in Section 11 and 6.3 above, including the threshold conditions and the maximum amount and long term spreading set forth therein, the Company’s other Office Holders (other than the Chief Executive Officer), may be entitled to an annual Variable Cash Compensation Component which will be determined in advance within the framework of an annual variable cash compensation scheme whilst a specific percentage thereof will be determined in accordance with one of the following, all in accordance with the duties of the Office Holder and the discretion of the relevant Authorized Corporate Organs:

(i) compliance of the Office Holder with the combination of personal targets, Company goals and over-achievement; and/or

(ii) a certain percentage of the EBITDA of the division or the employment unit to which the Office Holder belongs; and/or

(iii) a certain percentage of the net profit of the Company.

Each of the foregoing shall be determined as part of the annual variable cash compensation scheme in accordance with the discretion of the relevant organs of the Company.

12.2.2

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer shall have discretion to reduce the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component detailed in Section 12.2.1.

12.3

Discretional Grant to Office Holders Subordinate to the Chief Executive Officer

Subject to the provisions determining the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component grant set forth in Section 11 above:

12.3.1

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company may determine that, in addition to the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component, or instead of the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component, an Office Holder who is subordinate to the Chief Executive Officer will be entitled to a discretionary grant (for example following: a merger, significant acquisition, sale of subsidiary, spin-off, significant debt raise, public/private offerings, or any other specific task that seems fit to the Compensation Committee and Board).

12.3.2

As part of the variable component for an Office Holder who is subordinate to the Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s CEO may approve, for every calendar grant year, a discretionary grant, which will not be greater than 6 3 (~~six~~three) monthly salaries of the Office Holder. The said grant will be reported to the Compensation Committee promptly after the approval by the Chief Executive Officer.

13.

Reduction of Grant Amounts at the Discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors may reduce the annual Variable Cash Compensation Component of an Office Holder in exceptional circumstances, considering the business and financial condition of the Company and the duties of the Office Holder, and for reasons which shall be recorded by them.

14.

Return of Annual Grant Amounts in Case of a Restatement of the Financial Statements

14.1

Office Holders are required to return any compensation paid to them on the basis of data included in financial statements that turned out to be erroneous and were subsequently restated during the two-year period following filing thereof. In such case, compensation amounts will be returned net of taxes that were withheld thereon, unless the Office Holder has reclaimed or will reclaim such tax payments from the relevant tax authorities (in which case the Office Holder will also be obligated to return such tax amounts).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the required amount for repayment from the annual grant is less than 10% (ten percent) of the amount of the grant for that year, the Office Holder will not be required to repay it.

14.2

Notwithstanding the above, a restatement due to a change in applicable law, regulations or accounting rules that become applicable after the date of the publication of the financial statements of the Company for that year will not be deemed a restatement for which the foregoing return of grant amounts shall apply.

14.3

The provisions of this Section 14 shall be subject to the terms of a separate “clawback” policy adopted by the Company as required under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that are applicable to the Company. In the case of any contradiction between the two, the provisions of that separate clawback policy shall govern.

Equity Based Compensation Component

15.

The Purpose of the Capital Compensation Mechanism

15.1

As part of the overall compensation package of an Office Holder, the Company may offer an Equity Based compensation Component with the purpose of providing an incentive for an Office Holder to continue to contribute to the success of the Company in the future, success which is expected to be expressed, inter alia, in the long-term business results of the Company and in its share price, and by advancing the best interests of the Company to generate profits in the long term.

15.2

The Equity Based Compensation Component is intended to create an incentive for the continued employment in the long term of talented, experienced, and capable Office Holders.

15.3

The Office Holders may be entitled to Equity Based Compensation Component in the form of options to purchase shares of the Company, which options may be conditional on performance, as well as other securities permitted under Magic’s equity incentive plans, as in effect from time to time, including, restricted share units and restricted stock.

16.

Details of the Capital Compensation Mechanism

16.1

The Equity Based Compensation Component will be granted to an Office Holder considering, inter alia, the duties and areas of responsibility of the Office Holder in the Company.

16.2

As a rule, the Equity Based Compensation Component will mature over the overall period which will in any event not be less than 3 (three) years. The conditions to exercising any part or all Equity Based Compensation Component upon each vesting period shall include the Company or division to which such Officer Holder belongs, meeting the Normative Profit targets, as shall be published in the Company’s consolidated and audited annual financial statements, all subject to the terms and conditions as set by the Company as of the date of grant (“Performance-Based Component”).

16.3

As provided in section 15.3, the Equity Based Compensation Component may be in the form of options to purchase shares of the Company (the “Options”) or other securities. The exercise price of the Options will not be less than the average price of the Company’s shares on the applicable stock exchanges on the 30 (thirty) days period preceding the day of grant of such Options.

17.

Maximum value of Equity Based Compensation Component

17.1

No Equity Based Compensation component maximum economic value has been determined at the time of its realization because there is a difficulty in determining the maximum value of the equity benefit at this date, inter alia, for the following reasons:

17.1.1

The determination of such maximum value is contrary to the rationale underlying the basis for granting the Equity Based Compensation Component, which is the solution of the problem of the representation between the management and the shareholders and the uniformity of the interests of the management with the shareholders.

17.1.2

Significant technical difficulties exist with respect to determining a maximum economic value for the income arising to the Office Holder from the future sale of the Company’s shares, especially with respect to a sale that is to be carried out many years after the granting of the Equity Based Compensation Component, including when the Office Holder sells shares after his or her employment with the Company has terminated. One of the purposes of the Compensation Policy is to incentivize the holding of the shares for a long period, a purpose which may be missed due to technical difficulties if the said ceiling is determined.

18.

Acceleration of Vesting Dates and Realization of the Capital Compensation

18.1

18.2

The Company’s Board of Directors and the General Meeting of the Company’s Shareholders (if its approval is required under applicable law), after the approval of the Compensation Committee, may provide instructions in connection with the vesting period, including the acceleration of the vesting period of the Equity Based Compensation Component units of the Office Holders under special circumstances.

19.

Non-Material Change to Terms of Tenure of an Office Holder

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Compensation Policy, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer may approve a non-material change of the terms of tenure and employment of an Office Holder subordinate to him, provided that such change is in accordance with this Compensation Policy and its scope is not greater than 5% (five percent) of the compensation amount of the Office Holder. A non-material change that has been approved by the said CEO will be reported to the compensation committee promptly after its approval by the Chief Executive Officer.

Retirement Arrangements

20.

Principles for Determining Retirement Arrangements

An Office Holder shall be entitled to retirement payments owing to him pursuant to applicable law (such as severance pay compensation).

21.

Prior Notice and Adjustment Period

21.1

An Office Holder will be entitled to a prior notice period of 6 (six) months. During the prior notice period, the Office Holder will be required to continue to fulfill his duties, unless the Company decides that he will not continue to fulfill his duties in effect, and the Office Holder will be entitled to a continuation of all the conditions of his tenure and employment, during the prior notice period, without change.

21.2

The Authorized Corporate Organs may, under special circumstances, approve for an Office Holder an adjustment period that together with the prior notice period will not be greater than 12 (twelve) months , subject to noncompetition. During the adjustment period, the Office Holder will be entitled to a fixed fee and fringe benefits only.

21.3

In determining the adjustment period of an Office Holder, the Company may take into consideration the following considerations, fully or partially: the period of tenure or employment of the Office Holder, terms of tenure and employment during this period, performance of the Company during the said period, the contribution of the Office Holder to obtaining the Company’s goals and for the earning of its profits and the circumstances of the retirement.

Compensation of Directors

22.

External directors and directors who are not employed by the Company shall be entitled to compensation pursuant to the Companies Regulations (Rules Regarding Compensation and Expenses of External Directors) including a fixed annual amount and an amount for participation in meetings where their fee shall not be greater than the maximum fee permitted in these regulations.

23.

The directors of the Company may be entitled to an Equity Based Compensation in accordance with Chapter D of this Compensation Policy and subject to approval of the competent organs.

Indemnification and Insurance

24.

An Office Holder (including a director) is entitled, in addition to a compensation package pursuant to this Compensation Policy, and subject to the approval or consent of the Authorized Corporate Organs, to insurance coverage with respect to such Office Holder’s liability and to indemnification arrangements, all subject to applicable law.

25.

The engagement in connection with the liability insurance of the Office Holder will be determined in accordance with the market conditions and in such a way so that it will not materially influence the profitability, assets or liabilities of the Company.

25.1

The total cover amount for an Office Holder under an insurance policy will not be greater than 80 million US Dollars.

26.

The amount of compensation which the Company shall pay (in addition to the amounts which shall be received from the insurance company, if received under the insurance procured by the Company) for every Office Holder, accumulatively, will not be greater than 25% of the equity of the Company in accordance with the latest financial statements in effect as of the date of the actual payment of the indemnification.

27.

An Office Holder of the Company (including a director of the Company), may be entitled to receive an exemption letter from the Company, in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law and the Company’s Articles of Association, provided that the exemption letter indicated that the exemption does not apply to any resolution or transaction which involves a personal interest of the controlling shareholder or any other Office Holder of the Company (even if the interested party is different from the one receiving the exemption).
