The Updated Compensation Policy was discussed and approved unanimously by the Company's Board of Directors on May 26, 2026, after the Board of Directors examined all the considerations, matters, and parameters above and considered the Compensation Committee's recommendation.

2.3

The Updated Compensation Policy is attached as Appendix A to this immediate report. The Compensation Policy includes few changes relative to the Previous Compensation Policy, the main ones being - the indication of the updated gross (monthly) bases salary of the Company's CEO as of April 30, 2026 (relative to the said salary which was correct as of September 30, 2022, and which was specified in the Previous Compensation Policy), updating the gross (monthly) bases salary as of the officers (relative to the caps in the Previous Compensation Policy) including updating that these caps shall be linked to changes in the Consumer Price Index compared to the April 2026 index (which was published on May 15, 2026), updating the maximum grant for meeting targets for the Company's CEO, updating the cost of employment cap for the CEO (which shall be linked to the rise of the index published on May 15, 2026), updating the ratio between the officers' employment terms and the rest of the employees, as well as additional technical changes. For convenience, see the Compensation Policy attached as Appendix B to this report in which all the changes that the Company seeks to make to the Company's Previous Compensation Policy have been marked.

A spart of the Company's Board of Directors' discussions as specified above, the members of the Board of Directors examined, inter alia, the degree of suitability of the terms of office and employment of all officers holding office in the Company to the Compensation Policy, and reached the conclusion that the second one would be related from the principles of the Company's Compensation Policy, except as detailed below:

The existing terms of office and employment of Mr. Itzik Weitz, the Company's CEO (hereinafter: "Weitz">), which have been ineffects since 2005 and as updated in the agreements signed in May 2011 prior to the first issuance of the Company's shares on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (hereinafter - "TASE">) 4 sup>, include a variable compensation component derived from the Company's annual pre-tax profit, based on its consolidated financial statements, and in accordance with the tiers as detailed in the employment agreements signed between Weitz and the Company 5 sup>4

The company first offered securities to the public in May 2011. 5

In accordance with the said employment agreement, the Company's CEO is entitled to an annual cumulative grant based on the Company's pre-tax profit according to its consolidated financial statements for that year, as follows: a grant in the amount of 1.5% of the Company's profit up to 90 2

(hereinafter: "Weitz's variable compensation">). It should be noted that Weitz's variable compensation is not limited by a cap and lacks an operational target as determined in the component weights of the compensation model as stated in section 2 of the Compensation Policy.

Notwithstanding the above, the members of the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors believe that such deviations should be examined considering, among other things, Weitz's great contribution to the Company over the years from his arrival at the Company until the present day. Weitz is an excellent manager of the first rank in the economy, who led the Company to many successes, including the initial public offering of the Company's shares for trading on the TASE in 2011 and subsequent by turning it into a leading automotive group in Israel, in the area, through the importation of new vehicle brands including Cherry and XPeng, heavy mechanical equipment, the acquisition of Metro Motor, holding one of the leading leasing companies in Israel, expanding the Company's business activity, diversifying the Company's financing sources through the issuance of BONDS series and equity issuance on the TASE, as well as building additional growth engines, including expanding the financing activity and insurance agency and promoting the Company's activity in selling vehicle outside Israel. It should also be noted that Weitz managed the Company skillfully in a way that strengthened its activity while the Company successfully navigated through crises stemming from the security situation in Israel and geo-political changes and their implications on the automotive industry, the Israel economy, and vehicle importers in particular. In light of the foregoing, the members of the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors believe that the said inconsistencies of Weitz's employment agreement with the Compensation Policy are reasonable, and that Weitz's total existing compensation components are reasonable and fair and reflect his contribution to the Company. $< / p> < /$ div $>2.5$ . $< /$ div $>$ Asparto f the Company's Board of Directors' discussions, as detailed above, the Board of Directors decided that the Compensation Policy shall not apply with respective senior officers in corporations under its control, who are not officers serving in the Company. $< /$ div $> < /$ div $>2.6$ . $< /$ div $>$ As of this date, the entry into force of the Updated Compensation Policy is contingent upon its approval by the General Meeting summoned according to this immediate report (or alternatively, should the said General Meeting approval not be received, upon its approval by the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors, in accordance with the irauthority to do sounder the provisions of Section 267A(c) of the Companies Law). $< /$ div $> < /$ div $>$ The Approval Required for the Entry into Force of the Updated Compensation Policy $< /$ h2 $> < /$ div $> < /$ div

The company's compensation policy is that significant weight is given to meeting targets, derived from the company's annual and multi-annual work plan and/or the company's strategic plan. The company's targets express the company's success as a whole in realizing its plans, the contribution of the officers to the company's success, and the company's desire to reward officers for meeting these targets.
The targets will include measurable targets reflecting the company's goals and strategy in the short and long term in order to create an identity of interests between the company, the shareholders and the officers, in promoting the company's goals and strategy as stated. The bonus based on measurable criteria as stated will be derived and calculated on the basis of the measurable targets but will not exceed the bonus cap, as detailed below.
The company's Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, shall have the authority to reduce up to $20\%$ of the bonus amount, taking into account the reasonableness of the bonus received from meeting targets compared to the officer's contribution to achieving them and the company's business and financial situation.

L. Additional Topics:

  • Special Bonus: The company's long-term strategy is multi-year growth and expansion of activities. This strategy is reflected in the compensation mechanism by providing a special bonus in the case of extraordinary events and/or performance, subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors (as applicable), for reasons that will be recorded. In the event of such an event, as defined in the Company's annual budget, officers defined by the Board of Directors may be entitled to a special bonus, which will not exceed 25% of the annual employment cost for the officer. It should be noted that a special bonus is not related to the annual bonus and is not subject to the above ceilings.

  • Offsetting amounts in case of loss: In the event that in a certain year the Company has a consolidated annual loss, such loss will be offset from the subsequent consolidated annual profit for the purpose of calculating the bonus for the profit target in the subsequent year.

  • Timing of bonus payment: The bonus will be paid to the officers for each calendar year of the employment period no later than the payment date of the first salary after the date of approval of the Company's annual financial reports. The payment for the said compensation may be made on a quarterly or annual basis, according to the bonus terms that will be set for the officers.

  • Partial bonus and qualification period: An officer will be entitled, as far as they are entitled, to a bonus only on the condition that they were employed by the Company for at least half a year in the calendar work year for which the compensation is granted. If the officer finishes their role before the end of the relevant year, the bonus for the year of termination of their tenure will be calculated proportionally to the tenure period in that year.

  • Unless explicitly stated otherwise in a personal employment agreement, any payment paid to the officer as variable compensation according to this compensation policy, as far as it is paid, is not and will not be considered part of the officer's regular salary for any purpose and will not constitute a basis for calculation or eligibility or accrual of any ancillary right, including, and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, will not serve as a component included in the payment of vacation, severance pay, contributions to provident funds, and the like.

  • After the payment of a bonus to the officers, no net loss will be recorded. If it turns out that the calculation of the compensation for all officers (hereinafter: "Total Calculated Bonuses") brings the Company to record a loss, the Company will be able to distribute a bonus amount up to the zeroing of the net profit (hereinafter: "Total Actual Bonuses"). The distribution of bonuses will be done such that each officer will receive their share of the Total Actual Bonuses according to the proportion of the calculated bonus for them out of the Total Calculated Bonuses.

  • Taxation: To the extent there is any tax liability or other mandatory payment (National Insurance, State Health Insurance, etc.) for and/or due to the plan, it will be borne by the officer according to law (as far as it applies to the officer according to law).

Clawback of variable compensation in case of error

5.11

If it turns out that an annual bonus or part of it paid to an officer was calculated based on data that later turned out to be erroneous, within a period of 3 years from the payment date of the relevant bonus, the officer shall return to the Company, or the Company shall pay to the officer, as the case may be, the difference between the amount of the bonus they received and the one they were entitled to due to the said correction (while factoring in differences, as far as they exist, in payments and tax liabilities applicable to the officer and/or paid by them). An officer shall not be required to return amounts and the Company shall not pay an officer any payment, as stated in this section above, in a case where the bonus the officer was entitled to after the correction of the financial reports is lower or higher (as applicable) by up to 10% of the bonus actually paid to the officer for that same year. Furthermore, such clawback shall not apply in the event of an update or correction of the financial reports as a result of a change in accounting standards or reporting rules.

The return of the amounts by the Company, as far as relevant, will be performed on the date of payment of the first salary after the publication of corrected financial reports, while the return of the amounts by the officer will be performed by way of offsetting from the annual bonus in the subsequent year, as far as relevant, with the balance, if any, being settled within the framework of the monthly salary spread over 12 payments.

Variable Compensation - target-based bonus (hereinafter in this subsection: the "Bonus" or "Variable Compensation" as relevant)

5.6

a. General:

  • The variable component will reflect the officer's contribution to achieving the company's goals and maximizing its profits, in the short term and from a long-term perspective, according to measurable criteria.
  • The variable component will be determined in alignment with the company's performance and the officer's individual performance against the goals set for them within the scope of their role according to their areas of responsibility.
  • The company's compensation policy is that significant weight is given to meeting targets derived from the company's annual and multi-year work plan and/or the company's strategic plan. The company's goals express the success of the company as a whole in realizing its plans, the contribution of the officers to the company's success, and the company's desire to reward officers for meeting these goals.
  • The targets will include measurable targets reflecting the company's goals and strategy in the short and long term in order to create an identity of interests between the company, the shareholders, and the officers in promoting the company's goals and strategy as stated. The Bonus based on measurable criteria as stated will be derived and calculated based on the measurable targets but will not exceed the Bonus ceiling, as detailed below.
  • The company's Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, shall have the authority to reduce up to $20\%$ of the Bonus amount, taking into account the assessment of the reasonableness of the Bonus received from meeting targets versus the officer's contribution to achieving them and the company's business and financial situation. Furthermore, the Board shall have the authority to cancel the Bonus payment to a specific officer in cases of breach of fiduciary duties, breach of the engagement agreement, and/or improper management.

b. Applicability

The company's CEO and officers reporting to the CEO may be entitled to Variable Compensation.

c. Cumulative threshold conditions for awarding variable compensation:

  • Solvency Test - During the relevant calendar year, the company fully met the repayment terms of principal, interest, and linkage differentials for BONDS it issued, to the extent it issued, and loans provided to it by banking corporations and institutional bodies, which were in circulation in that year.

Failure to meet one or more of the above threshold conditions means that the officers will not be entitled to a Bonus in the relevant calendar year.

d. Components of Variable Compensation

The level of the variable component will be determined in a model that may include two components:

  1. Measurable Targets - financial and operational;
  2. Discretionary Component - a compensation component not based on assessment by measurable criteria.

  • Special Bonus:

This is an unofficial AI generated translation of the official Hebrew version and has no binding force. The only binding version is the official Hebrew version. For more information, please review the legal disclaimer.

The Company's long-term strategy is multi-year growth and expansion of operations. This strategy is reflected in the compensation mechanism by providing a special bonus in the event of extraordinary events and/or performance, subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors (as applicable), for reasons to be recorded. In the event of such an event, as defined in the Company's annual budget, officers defined by the Board may be eligible for a special bonus, not exceeding 25% of the annual employment cost for the officer. It should be noted that a special bonus is not related to the annual bonus and is not subject to the aforementioned caps.

  • Offsetting Amounts in Case of a Loss:

If in a certain year the Company has a consolidated annual loss, such loss will be offset against the subsequent consolidated annual profit for the purpose of calculating the bonus for the profit target in the subsequent year.

  • Timing of Bonus Payment:

The bonus will be paid to the officers for each calendar year of the employment period no later than the date of payment of the first salary following the date of approval of the Company's annual financial statements. The payment for said compensation may be made on a quarterly or annual basis, according to the bonus terms set for the officers.

  • Partial Bonus and Qualification Period:

An officer will be eligible, to the extent they are eligible, for a bonus only on the condition that they were employed by the Company for at least half a year in the calendar work year for which the compensation is granted. Should the officer end their role before the end of the relevant year, the bonus for the year of termination will be calculated proportionally to the period of tenure in that year.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise in a personal employment agreement, any payment made to an officer as variable compensation according to this compensation policy, to the extent paid, is not and will not be considered part of the officer's regular salary for any purpose and will not constitute a basis for calculation or entitlement or accumulation of any ancillary right, including, and without derogating from the generality of the foregoing, it shall not serve as a component included in the payment of vacation, severance pay, provisions to provident funds, etc.

After payment of a bonus to officers, no net loss will be recorded. If it becomes clear that the compensation calculation for all officers (hereinafter: the "Calculated Bonus Pool") leads the Company to record a loss, the Company may distribute a bonus amount up to the zeroing of the net profit (hereinafter: the "Actual Bonus Pool"). The distribution of bonuses will be done such that each officer receives their share of the actual bonus amount according to the proportion of the calculated bonuses for them from the calculated bonus pool.

  • Taxation:

To the extent there is any tax liability or other mandatory payment (National Insurance, State Health Tax, etc.) for and/or due to the plan, it shall be borne by the officer according to law (to the extent it applies to the officer by law).

5.7 Variable Compensation - Equity Component (hereinafter: "Equity Compensation")


This is an unofficial AI generated translation of the official Hebrew version and has no binding force. The only binding version is the official Hebrew version. For more information, please review the legal disclaimer.

Equity compensation constitutes an appropriate mechanism for retaining and incentivizing officers while creating alignment of interests between the officers and the shareholders and maintaining a proper balance between short-term and long-term considerations, among other things, by setting a full vesting period and providing share-based payment that is not in-the-money at the time of grant. Thanks to the long-term nature of equity compensation plans, they support the Company's ability to retain its senior managers in their positions for a long period.

B. The Company shall be entitled to use a variety of additional equity instruments such as restricted shares (at a rate of up to 25% of the value cap of the equity compensation or up to three monthly compensations), performance-based restricted share units, phantom options, etc.

C. When determining an equity compensation plan, the annual value cap of the equity-based variable components that are not settled in cash, at the time of grant, is up to 18 monthly compensations for the Company CEO and up to 12 monthly compensations for officers reporting to the CEO (as of the allocation date). The annual cap is calculated as if the equity expense is spread linearly over the vesting period.

D. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors will determine which of the officers will be included in the specific plan, to the extent approved.

E. The minimum holding or vesting period for equity-based variable components in the terms of tenure and employment is 4 years, and no less than 12 months for the first installment.

F. Insofar as share-based compensation is granted within the framework of equity compensation, the exercise price of this equity compensation shall not be less than the average price of the Company's share on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. during the up to 30 trading days preceding the grant date.

G. The life of the share-based payment granted within an equity compensation plan shall not exceed 8 years from the grant date.

H. The Company shall be entitled to determine full acceleration of equity compensation for an officer in case of death, disability, medical reasons, and a change of control as a result of which trading in the Company's shares will cease. To the extent the Company requests to determine acceleration as a result of a change of control in the Company in case of termination of employment, acceleration of the next installment that has not yet vested will be possible.

5.8 Employment Cost Cap for CEO

Notwithstanding anything stated in the compensation plan, the annual employment cost for the Company CEO shall not exceed a total of 13 million NIS plus linkage to the increase in the index compared to the index of April 2026. To the extent that the actual compensation exceeds the employment cost cap, first the variable compensation and then the equity compensation shall be reduced from the employment cost, as required.

If it turns out that an annual grant or part thereof paid to an officer was calculated based on data that subsequently turned out to be erroneous, within a period of 3 years from the payment date of the relevant grant, the officer shall return to the company, or the company shall pay to the officer, as the case may be, the difference between the amount of the grant received and that which they were entitled to due to the said correction (taking into account differences, if any, in tax payments and liabilities applicable to the officer and/or paid by them). An officer shall not be obligated to return amounts, and the company shall not pay any payment to an officer, as stated in this section above, in the event that the grant to which the officer was entitled after the correction of the financial statements is lower or higher (as the case may be) by up to 10% of the grant actually paid to the officer for that same year. Furthermore, such restitution shall not apply in the case of an update or correction of the financial statements as a result of a change in accounting standards or reporting rules. The restitution of amounts by the company, if relevant, will be carried out at the time of the first salary payment after the publication of corrected financial statements, whereas the restitution of amounts by the officer will be carried out by way of offset from the annual grant in the following year, if relevant, while the balance, if any, will be settled within the monthly salary spread over 12 payments.
