The Opportunity

- o A leap for Matrix in geographic expansion and diversity, in particular strengthening exposure to the U.S. as a strategic target market.
- o The merged company would rank #4 and #10 by market capitalization among European-listed IT Services peers and U.S.-listed IT Services peers, respectively.(1)
- o Value creation driven by cross selling synergies and cross-sharing technological and operational know how of two excellent companies.
- o Significant complementary operations, particularly in industry focus and services offerings.
- o Significant power multiplier from combining both companies' operations, specifically in the attractive end markets.
- o Expanding product offerings and strengthening IP-based operations, which are characterized by high margins, strong stickiness and an ARR component.

The Opportunity (Cont'd)

- o Significant improvement in profit margins Magic's gross margins are over 28% and operating margins over 11% (effective tax rate is also about 4% lower than Matrix's).
- o Magic has a strong balance sheet with high net cash balances.
- o All stock deal structure avoids meaningful transaction costs such as financing.
- o Improved attractiveness of the merged company from the perspective of global investors, given scale and global reach.
- o Potential for inclusion in the TA-35 index (in accordance with current market cap sum expected to be #31), leading to increased investor base and trading volumes.
- o Adding an excellent and experienced management team, coupled with existing acquaintance between the two companies/management teams, creates a favorable organizational climate for the merger.
