Dear Shareholder,

This document contains notice of an upcoming extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders (the "Meeting") of Matomy Media Group Ltd. (the "Company") to be held at 08:00 (London time) / 10:00 (Tel Aviv time) on 3 November 2016 at the Company's registered office. The Meeting is called further to a request of Brosh Funds Management Ltd. and Exodus Management Israel Ltd., two affiliated shareholders of the Company that hold together, according to their certification, approximately 6.93% of the issued and outstanding shares (collectively "Brosh"). On September 10, 2016, Brosh submitted a request pursuant to Section 63 of the Israeli Companies Law – 1999 (the "Companies Law") to convene an extraordinary general meeting in which the shareholders will vote upon a proposed resolution to increase the size of the Board of Directors (the "Board") and an additional proposed resolution to appoint Mr. Amir Efrati as an additional director in the Company. In addition, on September 1 and September 15, 2016, Mr. Nir Tarlovsky, a shareholder of the Company that holds, according to his certification, approximately 4% of the issued and outstanding shares, submitted a request that at the next shareholders meeting, the shareholders will be requested to vote upon a proposed resolution for his appointment as an additional director in the Company. Currently the Board consists of eight directors.

Hence, in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Law, the Company is convening the Meeting in which the resolutions requested to be considered by Brosh and Mr. Tarlovsky will be considered and voted upon as set out in the notice convening the Meeting that accompanies this letter.

The Board is currently assessing the shareholder requests and proposals described above, and if it deems fit, will publish its views on such requests and proposals in advance of the Meeting. The Board also wishes to use this opportunity to acknowledge its openness and willingness to consider and cooperate with the requests and proposals of stakeholders, including its shareholders, when appropriate, all in light of its commitment to serving the best interests of the Company.

Yours faithfully,

Rupert Howell Chairman

Notes:

    1. Enclosed with this document is a form of proxy for shareholders (the "Form of Proxy") or a form of direction for Depositary Interest holders (the "Form of Direction").
    1. Only those shareholders registered in the Company's register of members as of 18:00 on 28 October 2016 (the "Original Cut-off") shall be entitled to attend and/or vote at the Meeting, and each only in respect of such number of shares registered in his or its name at that time. If the Meeting is adjourned to a time not more than 48 hours after the original Meeting time, the Original Cut-off will continue to apply. Any changes to the Company's register of members made after the Original Cut-off shall be disregarded for these purposes.
    1. If you are a shareholder of the Company, whether or not you intend to be present at the Meeting, please complete and return the Form of Proxy (in accordance with the instructions set out in that document) to Capita Asset Services, Proxies, The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU, United Kingdom, as soon as possible and in any event so as to be received by the Company's registrars by no later than 08:00 (London time) on 28 October 2016 or 48 hours before any meeting following adjournment thereof (in accordance with the Uncertified Securities Regulations 2001, and any other provisions notwithstanding). Completion and return of a signed Form of Proxy will not prevent you from attending the Meeting and voting in person, if you so wish.
    1. If you are a holder of Depositary Interests representing ordinary shares of the Company, please complete and return the Form of Direction (in accordance with the instructions set out in that document) to Capita Asset Services, PXS1, The Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent BR3 4TU, United Kingdom, as soon as possible and in any event so as to be received by Capita Asset Services by no later than 08:00 (London time) on 27 October 2016 or 72 hours before any meeting following adjournment thereof. Holders of Depositary Interests cannot vote in person at the Meeting; therefore, please make sure that your vote is received by Capita Asset Services by no later than 08:00 (London time) on 27 October 2016.
    1. In the case of joint shareholders, the vote of the senior-most of such shareholders who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint shareholders, and for this purpose seniority will be determined by the order in which the names stand in the register of members of the Company in respect of the relevant joint holding.
    1. As at 31 August 2016 (being the last practicable date prior to the publication of this notice) the Company's issued share capital comprised 93,804,554 Ordinary Shares of NIS 0.01 each.
    1. Members attending the meeting have the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the meeting, but no such answer need be given if (i) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information, (ii) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question, or (iii) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the meeting that the question be answered.
    1. Depositary Interest holders wishing to attend the meeting should contact Capita IRG Trustees Limited at the Registry, 34 Beckenham Road, Beckenham, Kent, BR3 4TU, United Kingdom or by email to [email protected] in order to request a letter of representation no later than 08:00 (London time) on 27 October 2016. However, Depositary Interest holders will not be able to vote at the Meeting.
    1. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a service provider, should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider, who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.
    1. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a "CREST Proxy Instruction") must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited specifications, and must contain the information required for such instruction, as described in the CREST Manual. The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or is an amendment to an instruction given to a previously appointed proxy, must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer's agent ID (RA10) by 08:00 (London time) on 27 October 2016. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Application Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.
    1. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that CREST does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular message. Normal system timings and limitations will, therefore, apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member, or sponsored member, or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider takes) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.
    1. The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.
    1. Copy of Mr. Efrati's and Mr. Tarlovsky's declaration as required by the Israeli Companies law will be available for inspection at the Company's registered office during normal business hours from the date of this Notice for at least 15 minutes prior to the Meeting and during the Meeting.
