Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") allows us to incorporate by reference the information we file with them, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Under the Israeli Companies Law 1999 (the "Companies Law"), a company may not exculpate an office holder from liability for a breach of the duty of loyalty. An Israeli company may exculpate an office holder in advance from liability to the company, in whole or in part, for damages caused to the company as a result of a breach of duty of care but only if a provision authorizing such exculpation is included in its articles of association. Our amended articles of association include such a provision. A company may not exculpate in advance a director from liability arising from a breach of his or her duty of care in connection with a prohibited dividend or distribution to shareholders.

As permitted under the Companies Law, our amended articles of association provide that we may indemnify an office holder in respect of the following liabilities, payments and expenses incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder, either in advance of an event or following an event:

• a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party under a judgment, including a judgment by way of compromise or a judgment of an arbitrator approved by a court. However, such undertaking will be limited to the kinds of events that in the Board's opinion are foreseeable at the time of the issue of the undertaking and will be limited to the amount fixed by the Board as reasonable under the circumstances, and the kinds of events and the amount will be mentioned in such undertaking in writing.
• reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred by the office holder due to an inquiry he or she was under or a proceeding filed against him or her by an authority, that ended without filing a charge sheet and without having incurred any monetary liability as an alternative to the criminal proceedings, or that ended without filing a charge sheet but with an imposition of a monetary liability as an alternative to the criminal proceedings in a offense not requiring proof of criminal intent.
• reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred by the office holder or charged to him or her by the court, in a proceeding filed against him or her by or on behalf of the company or by any other person, or for a criminal charge from which he was acquitted or for a criminal charge in which he or she was found guilty of an offense not requiring proof of criminal intent.

As permitted under the Companies Law, our amended articles of association provide that we may insure an office holder against the following liabilities incurred for acts performed by him or her as an office holder:

• a breach of duty of care by an office holder owed to the Company or any other person.
• a breach of fiduciary duty by any office holder owed to the Company, provided that such office holder or officer acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to assume that the action would not harm the interests of the Company.
• a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of a third party due to activities carried out in his or her capacity as an office holder.

Under the Companies Law, a company may not indemnify, exculpate or insure an office holder against any of the following:

• a breach of the duty of loyalty, except for indemnification and insurance for a breach of the duty of loyalty to the company to the extent that the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;
• a breach of duty of care committed intentionally or recklessly, excluding a breach arising out of the negligent conduct of the office holder;
• an act or omission committed with intent to derive illegal personal benefit; or
• a fine or forfeit levied against the office holder.

Under the Companies Law, exculpation, indemnification and insurance of office holders must be approved by the compensation committee and the board of directors and, with respect to directors or controlling shareholders, their relatives and third parties in which controlling shareholders have a personal interest, also by the shareholders.

Our amended articles of association permit us to exempt, indemnify and insure our office holders as permitted by law. As of the date of this prospectus, we are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation or proceeding involving any of our office holders, including our directors, in which indemnification is sought.

We have entered into agreements with each of our current office holders exculpating them from a breach of their duty of care to us to the fullest extent permitted by law, subject to limited exceptions, and undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law to the extent that these liabilities are not covered by insurance. This indemnification is limited, with respect to any monetary liability imposed in favor of a third party, to events determined as foreseeable by the board of directors based on our activities. The maximum aggregate amount of indemnification that we may pay to our office holders based on such indemnification agreement is 25% of our shareholders' equity on a consolidated basis, based on our most recent financial statements made publicly available before the date on which the indemnity payment is made. Such indemnification amounts are in addition to any insurance amounts. These indemnification agreements will supersede all previous letters of indemnification that we have provided to him or her in the past, if any. However, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification of office holders for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings.

(a) The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers, or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

To

We have acted as the Israeli counsel to G. Willi-Food International Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the "Company"), in connection with its filing of a registration statement on Form S-8 on August 11, 2025 (the "Registration Statement"), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the registration of 400,000 of the Company's ordinary shares, NIS 0.10 par value per share (the "Plan Shares"), reserved for future issuance under the 2022 Share Option Plan (the "Plan").

In our capacity as counsel to the Company, we have examined originals or copies, satisfactory to us, of the Company's (i) Amended Articles of Association, (ii) the Plan, and (iii) resolutions of the Company's board of directors. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or facsimiles. As to any facts material to such opinion, to the extent that we did not independently establish relevant facts, we have relied on certificates of public officials and certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company. We are admitted to practice law in the State of Israel and the opinion expressed herein is expressly limited to the laws of the State of Israel.

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the 400,000 Plan Shares being registered pursuant to the Registration Statement, when issued and paid for in accordance with the Plan, pursuant to agreements with respect to the Plan, and, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms of the awards that may be granted under the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

Sincerely, /s/ Shnitzer Gotlieb, Samet & Co.
