  1. Recommendations and resolutions of the directors in connection with the distribution of the dividend pursuant to Regulation 37(a)(1) of the Securities' (Periodic and Immediate Reports) Regulations, 5730 – 1970:

With regard to the distribution of the dividend, it was decided that according to the Company's 2024 financial statements, the profit that can be divided according to the provisions of the Companies Law, 5769-1999 (the "Companies Law"), amounts to NIS 9.7 billion, thus the distribution complies with the "profit criterion" as defined in the Companies Law.

For the purpose of examining the Company's compliance with the "solvency test" as defined in the Companies Law, the Company has ensured that the distribution of the dividend does not prevent the Company from meeting its existing and expected liabilities when their due date arrives.

The Company's Board of Directors (BOD) believes that, after examining the effect of the distribution on the Company's financial condition, expected cash flow, capital structure, liquidity, and compliance with existing financial criteria, the distribution does not adversely affect the Company.

It should be noted that the BOD's resolution is based, inter alia, on distributing dividends from the subsidiaries to the Company.

In accordance with the aforesaid, the BOD has determined that the distribution is in accordance with the distribution tests outlined in the Companies Law, and in the opinion of the Company's BOD, the distribution of the dividend does not have a negative effect on the Company's financial position.

The BOD also determined that the dividend distribution complies with the company's dividend distribution policy, which states that the Company shall distribute an annual dividend at a minimum rate of 40% of its distributable comprehensive income as per its financial statements for the relevant year.
