Towards the expiration of the current compensation policy, the Company brings for approval the proposed compensation policy, which is primarily based on the current compensation policy plus adjustments required in accordance with the size of the Company and the growth in its scope and areas of activity and market standard (hereinafter: "the proposed compensation policy").

Within the framework of formulating the proposed compensation policy, comparative data were presented to the Compensation Committee, among other things, regarding compensation caps for officers in corporations whose securities are listed for trading on the Stock Exchange, having similar characteristics in terms of field of activity and scope of activity.

Compensation Committee discussed, among other things, possible compensation mechanisms and their implications for achieving the Company's strategic goals and its ability to preserve the continued employment of the officers. The Compensation Committee also examined the fairness of the proposed compensation policy to ensure that it guarantees fair and reasonable compensation, while taking into account the full interests of the Company's shareholders. In light of this, the Compensation Committee decided to recommend to the Board of Directors to approve the proposed compensation policy in accordance with the provisions of Section 118b of the Companies Law. The members of the Compensation Committee who participated in the aforementioned Compensation Committee meetings are Messrs. Ofer Tselermair (external director), Rachel Levin (external director), and Ehud Adam (independent director).
On May 24, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors convened, discussed the proposed compensation policy and the Compensation Committee's recommendations, and decided to approve the proposed compensation policy and bring it to the approval of the meeting, which is hereby summoned. The directors who participated in the Board of Directors meeting are Messrs. Gil Agmon, Ofer Tselermair, Yaron Kastenbaum, Ronit Bachar, and Asaf Bartfeld.
It is proposed to approve the proposed compensation policy for a period of three years starting from the date of meeting approval, in accordance with Section 267a of the Companies Law, in the version attached as Appendix A to the meeting invitation report.
2.3.2 The primary considerations, assumptions, and arguments that guided the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors in determining the proposed compensation policy:
(A) The proposed compensation policy was determined, among other things, in accordance with the considerations detailed in Section 267b(a) of the Companies Law as well as in accordance with additional considerations and principles, all as detailed below:
- The proposed compensation policy is primarily based on the current compensation policy while performing necessary adjustments in accordance with the size of the Company and market standard. The current compensation policy was adopted within the framework of the initial public offering prospectus of the Company about five years ago. In the period that has passed since the adoption of the policy until today, there has been a significant growth in the scope of the Company's activity, its areas of activity, and its balance sheet, among other things in light of the purchase of Infinia - accordingly, the responsibility imposed on the officers in the Company has materially grown.

The proposed compensation policy contributes to the creation of a reasonable and worthy set of incentives for the officers in the Company, considering, among other things, the Company's characteristics, its business activity, its risk management policy, its goals, the business strategy, and its labor relations, and therefore it is in the Company's favor.
.3 The proposed compensation policy assists in giving necessary tools for the purpose of incentivizing, preserving, and recruiting talented and skilled managers, who will be able to contribute to the Company and maximize its profits in a long-term view.
.4 The proposed compensation policy gives emphasis to performance-based compensation, and creates a link between the officers and the Company and its performance, while adjusting the officers' compensation to their contribution

to achieving the Company's goals and to maximizing its profits, in a long-term view and in accordance with their role and the Company's work plans.
.5 The proposed compensation policy creates a worthy balance between the various compensation components (such as fixed vs. variable components and short-term vs. long-term).
(B) Within the framework of formulating the proposed compensation policy, the ratio between the variable compensation components and the total term of office conditions was also examined. After performing such an examination, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors are of the opinion that the ratio between the fixed components and the variable components as determined in the compensation policy expresses in an appropriate way the Company's perception regarding the required balance between the need for creating worthy and performance-based incentives for officers and between the need to preserve the interest of the Company's shareholders.
(C) Within the framework of the discussions in connection with updating the Company's compensation policy, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors were assisted by an external consultant specializing in this subject. Within this, a comparative work prepared by the external consultant was presented to the committee, in relation to the compensation components and the various caps included in the policy, in relation to reporting corporations in the Stock Exchange with similar characteristics in terms of the field of activity and scope of activity, regarding officers with similar roles in such comparable corporations. The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors examined the proposed compensation policy, among other things, in light of the comparative work. Furthermore, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors gave their mind to the fact that the special grant is not included in the comparative work, and this taking into account that it is a unique compensation component intended for exceptional cases, which deviate from the Company's routine work plan, and which may yield a significant profit for the Company and/or create significant value distribution, and therefore by its nature does not constitute a standard compensation component existing in the comparison companies.

On the basis of the above, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors reached the conclusion that the proposed compensation policy, attached as Appendix A to the meeting invitation report, is reasonable and worthy under the circumstances and brings into expression, among other things, the Company's characteristics, its goals and its business plans, and therefore recommend the meeting to approve it.
2.3.3 The primary changes between the existing compensation policy and the proposed compensation policy
As stated above, the proposed compensation policy is primarily based on the previous compensation policy, except for changes and adjustments in a number of sections, the primary ones being detailed below:
a. A clarification was added that a deviation of up to 5% per year (cumulatively) from the caps detailed in the compensation policy, will not be considered a deviation from the compensation policy.

A. Background and Basic Principles
1. Introduction
This document defines and details the compensation policy for officers in Veridis Environment Ltd. (hereinafter: "the Company"), its components and the manner of its determination, as required by Amendment 20 of the Companies Law.
The compensation policy will come into effect from the date of its approval by the Company's General Meeting and will be in effect for a period of 3 years.
The compensation policy is intended to establish a framework that will allow the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors, and the Company CEO, as applicable, to determine an individual compensation plan for each of the officers, according to the Company's needs and in alignment with the best interests of the Company, its employees, its shareholders, and the Company's overall long-term strategy.
The compensation components to which the officers will be entitled will only be those specifically approved for them by the authorized organs in the Company and subject to the provisions of any law. It is clarified that the adoption of the compensation policy by the Company does not grant any right to receive compensation of any kind to its officers and/or any other third party.
The compensation policy was drafted in accordance with the nature of the Company, its expected scope of activity in its field of operation, the Company's assumptions and work plan both in the immediate term and in a long-term view as presented to the members of the Board of Directors, including the appropriate ratio between variable and fixed components of the total compensation package, while emphasizing the Company's limited manpower structure.
The compensation policy will apply to all officers of the Company as this term is defined in the Companies Law, 1999.
2. Definitions
The Company - Veridis Environment Ltd. as well as Veridis Environmental Management Ltd.;
Companies Law - The Companies Law, 1999;
Officer - as this term is defined in the Companies Law, as well as the CEO of the Environmental Division and the Legal Advisor employed by the subsidiary T.M.M. Integrated Recycling Industries Ltd.;
The CEO - CEO of Veridis Environmental Management Ltd.;
CEO Subordinates - any other officer to whom this policy applies;
Monthly Salary - the base salary including accompanying conditions, in terms of cost to the Company.
3. Objectives of the Compensation Policy
The Company strives to adopt appropriate compensation solutions in order to encourage the Company's officers to achieve its strategic goals while emphasizing the link between the contribution of the Company's officers and the nature of the Company's activities, and considering the Company's risk management policy, alongside preserving human capital in the Company in accordance with its activities, all in accordance
with the provisions of the Companies Law. To achieve this goal, the Board of Directors has outlined a policy that establishes principles and considerations on the basis of which the compensation for the Company's officers was and will be determined.
A material deviation or exception from the compensation policy detailed in this document will only be possible in accordance with the approvals required by law. Notwithstanding the above, a deviation or exception of up to 5% per year (cumulatively) from the caps detailed in the compensation policy will not be considered a deviation from the compensation policy.

4. The Role of the Compensation Committee
The roles of the Compensation Committee are as established in the Companies Law. The Compensation Committee will periodically review the compensation policy and recommend to the Company's Board of Directors, at least once every 36 months, an update to the compensation policy as required at its discretion.
5. The Compensation Policy of the Officers
When determining or updating terms of service and employment for officers by the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors, the following considerations, among others, will be examined:
- The education, skills, expertise, professional experience, and achievements of the Company's officers as submitted to the members of the Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors.
- The roles of the officers in the Company, their areas of responsibility, and previous salary agreements signed with them.
- The expected contribution of the officers to the Company.
- The degree of responsibility to be imposed on the Company's officers.
- The Company's need to retain the Company's officers in light of their skills, knowledge, and unique expertise in the Company's field of activity, as well as the retention of outstanding quality managers who will form the solid basis for the Company's management, its continued development, and long-term success.
- The ratio between the cost of terms of service and employment of the officers and the salary of the rest of the Company's employees employed by the Company (to the extent such are employed) and/or contractor employees providing services to the Company (to the extent such exist), taking into account the nature of the officer's role, seniority, the degree of responsibility imposed on them, and in particular the ratio to the average salary and median salary of such employees and the impact of the gaps on labor relations in the Company. For this purpose, "salary" means - any payment for employment, including employer contributions, retirement payments, vehicle and its use expenses, and any other benefit or payment.
- The Company's risk management policy.
6. Compensation Components
6.1. Fixed Component -
Base Salary - intended to compensate the officer for the time invested in performing their duties in the Company and their ongoing tasks therein; this is the fixed monthly salary in gross terms.
Accompanying Conditions - these conditions stem partly from legal provisions, partly from customs accepted in the labor market and the Company, and partly are intended to compensate the employee for expenses incurred for the purpose of fulfilling their role. For further details, see Section 9 below.
6.2. Variable Components -
The purpose of the variable components is to link the Company's performance to the performance of its officers, and they include:
Annual Cash Grant (Bonus) - this component is intended to reward the officer for their achievements and contribution to achieving the Company's goals and its work plans during the period for which it is paid, and it may include both a grant to be determined according to measurable criteria (quantitative and/or qualitative) reflecting the Company's goals and its strategy in the short and long term ("measurable grant") and a discretionary grant considering the officer's contribution, which is not measurable by identified criteria ("discretionary grant"). In this regard, see Section 11.1 below.
Special Grant - in this regard, see Section 11.2 below.
Equity Compensation - intended for the retention and incentivization of officers while creating an identity of interests between the officers and the shareholders and maintaining a proper balance between short-term and long-term considerations, among other things by determining a full vesting period and providing options that are not in-the-money at the time of their grant. Due 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. In this regard, see Section 11.3 below.
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. .
7. The Ratio between Fixed Components and Variable Components in the Compensation Package
For the CEO: The cost of all variable compensation components shall not exceed $70\%$ of the total cost of all annual compensation components.
For officers who are CEO subordinates: The cost of all variable compensation components shall not exceed $70\%$ of the total cost of all annual compensation components.
8. The Ratio between the Officer's Employment Terms and the Employment Terms of Company Employees
The Compensation Committee and the Company's Board of Directors will examine, when approving or determining terms of service and employment for officers, the ratio between the terms of service and employment of the Company's officers to the salary cost of the rest of the Company's employees (including contractor employees, to the extent there are any) and in particular the ratio to the average and median salary cost of such employees and will consider the impact of these ratios on labor relations in the Company, the reasonableness of the senior management's salary in light of the type of Company, its size, and the composition of its workforce.
As of the date of approval of the compensation policy in the Company, the ratio between the salary cost of the Company's CEO and the average of 3 officers who are CEO subordinates to the average cost of the average salary and median salary in the Company are as follows:
| Officer | Compared to Average Salary (approx.) | Compared to Median Salary (approx.) |
|---|---|---|
| CEO | 1:11 | 1:13 |
| Officers subordinate to CEO | 1:7 | 1:9 |

10. Update of Terms of Office and Employment
The CEO shall have the authority to approve a non-material change in the terms of office and employment of any officer subordinate to the CEO, within the limits established in this policy and subject to all provisions of the compensation policy.
An update to the employment terms of an officer at a rate of 5% per year of the officer's total compensation cost (up to a cumulative cap of 15% of the total compensation cost as recently approved by the company's Board of Directors regarding VPs and the general meeting regarding the company's CEO) will not be considered a material change in the officer's terms of office and employment. The compensation committee shall be authorized to approve a non-material update of employment terms for the CEO, and the CEO shall be authorized to approve a non-material update for those subordinate to the CEO, all subject to the compensation caps established in this policy.
In the event that any legal relaxations regarding the approval of terms of office and employment of officers are allowed by law, which do not exist at the time of approval of this plan, this compensation policy shall be deemed to include such relaxations from the date of their entry into force.
11. Variable Salary Components
11.1. Annual Bonus
The purpose of the variable component is to reflect, as much as possible, the officer's contribution to achieving company goals and maximizing its profits 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 personal performance relative to the goals defined for them as part of their role according to their areas of responsibility.
The company's compensation policy is to give significant weight to meeting goals derived from the company's annual and multi-year work plan and/or the company's strategic plan. The company's goals express the company's overall success in realizing its plans, the officers' contribution to the company's success, and the company's desire to reward officers for meeting these goals.
The eligibility of officers for the annual bonus will be determined in accordance with the compensation policy, and the scope of eligibility will be subject to the Board of Directors' discretion. The measurable component does not determine the scope of eligibility, but rather serves as a measurement tool for the discretion and approval of the bonus by the company's Board of Directors.
The annual bonus for officers in the company may include two components – a measurable component and a discretionary component.
The maximum annual bonus that can be approved for officers in the company will be up to 70% of the fixed annual salary cost.
The Measurable Component
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 measurable component of the annual bonus will be based on measurable parameters, goals, and quantitative tests (hereinafter: "the Measurable Criteria"), whose purpose is to maximize the company's value for its shareholders in the short and long term, whether these actions are immediately reflected in the company's financial reports or not.
The Measurable Criteria will be defined and approved in advance, every year, by the compensation committee and the Board of Directors. The CEO will have the authority to set Measurable Criteria in advance for every officer subordinate to him. Such Measurable Criteria may be based on targets for EBITDA, operating profit, net profit, cash flow, sector results, growth rates in activity volumes, meeting budget targets and work plans, achieving business milestones, efficiency and savings targets, and personal targets derived from the officer's role and responsibilities.
Should specific one-time events occur during the year that affect the degree of compliance with a Measurable Criterion, the authorized bodies will be able to neutralize the impact of these events. For the purpose of this section, one-time events are regulatory changes, sale, closing and/or acquisition of an area of activity or material activity, and changes resulting from a change in accounting policy or initial adoption of an accounting policy.
The Discretionary Component
The total variable bonuses not based on measurable criteria that can be granted to officers in the company will be limited to a non-material part of the total variable components or three monthly salaries per year (whichever is higher), taking into account their contribution to the company.
Notwithstanding the above, the compensation committee and Board of Directors may approve discretionary bonuses for subordinates of the CEO that are not subject to measurable criteria, considering their contribution to the company, subject to the annual bonus threshold detailed above.
Furthermore, the CEO will be authorized to approve the payment of a discretionary annual bonus to a CEO subordinate up to a cap of 3 monthly salaries without needing approval from the compensation committee and Board of Directors.
11.2. Special Bonus (One-time)
In addition to the annual bonus, the compensation committee and the Board of Directors may grant, no more than once a year, to the CEO and other officers, a special bonus not exceeding 6 monthly salaries, upon the occurrence of special events defined in advance by them, which deviate from the company's regular work plan, and which yielded significant profit for the company and/or created significant value floating, for extraordinary and exceptional effort on his part and/or for special and exceptional achievements relative to these events, such as sale events and/or an IPO of a field of activity or part thereof (hereinafter: "Special Bonus").
It is clarified that the special bonus, if granted, is a separate and additional bonus to the annual bonus and is not subject to the annual bonus cap.
Authority to Reduce Variable Components
The company's Board of Directors, upon recommendation from the compensation committee, shall have discretionary authority to reduce up to 50% of the amount of the annual bonus to which an officer may be entitled, taking into account and based on reasons related to examining the reasonableness of the bonus received from meeting targets versus the officer's contribution to achieving them and the company's business and financial condition during the bonus calculation period. Furthermore, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to cancel the bonus payment to a specific officer in cases of embezzlement, fraud, and/or improper management.

11.3. Equity Compensation²
Equity compensation constitutes an appropriate mechanism for the retention and motivation of officers while creating an alignment of interests between officers and shareholders and maintaining a proper balance between short-term and long-term considerations, among other things by setting a full vesting period and providing warrants that are not in-the-money at the time of their grant. Due 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.
The company shall be entitled to adopt, subject to the approval of the authorized organs, an equity compensation plan for officers in the company, which may include the granting of shares (including RSU or RS) or warrants of any kind (including CASHLESS or phantom warrants) (hereinafter: "Equity Compensation Plan"). The granting of equity compensation to officers in the company under an Equity Compensation Plan will be performed subject to obtaining the approvals required by law.
An equity compensation plan may include arrangements customary in plans of this type, including: conditions regarding eligibility for profit distribution and voting rights for the securities included in the equity compensation; adjustment of equity compensation for dividend distribution, bonus shares, stock splits and consolidations or other changes in company capital, rights offerings, and mergers and acquisitions; right of first refusal in the transfer of securities, conditions in case of leaving the company (due to dismissal, resignation, cause, and cases of death or disability), and it will be subject to the conditions detailed below:
The vesting period of equity compensation (whether settled in equity instruments or settled in cash) (if granted) will be between 2-5 years from the date of grant ("Vesting Period"), as determined by the company's authorized organs, provided that the first tranche will be exercisable starting from a period of no less than 12 months from the date of grant. The vesting period is intended to serve as a long-term incentive. At the same time, the company will be entitled to establish provisions in the equity compensation plan regarding acceleration of the vesting period (full or proportional to the vesting period elapsed until the date of termination) in the event of termination of employment or retirement. Furthermore, the Board of Directors and the compensation committee may decide, regarding equity compensation granted to officers who are not directors, that due to circumstances of change of control, suspension of trading, merger, death or disability, termination of work due to medical circumstances, or other special circumstances to be detailed in the decision, there is justification for partial or full acceleration of the
² It is clarified that updates to the compensation policy regarding equity compensation, including the benefit value caps specified therein, will not apply to equity compensation granted to officers prior to the approval date of this compensation policy.
vesting period of such equity compensation which has not yet vested, provided that in the case of a change of control which did not lead to the suspension of trading of the company's shares, the acceleration shall be limited to the upcoming tranche only.
(a) In granting warrants for company shares, the exercise price shall not be less than the average closing prices in the 30 trading days preceding the date of the decision on the grant. The expiration date of the equity compensation shall not be earlier than one year after the vesting of each tranche (except in special cases to be determined such as termination of employment) and not later than 10 years from the date of grant.
(b) The maximum fair value at the date of grant of equity compensation settled in equity instruments or in cash, which will be granted to a single officer, according to one of the accepted valuation methods, as well as the maximum benefit value of equity compensation settled in cash at the time of exercise, according to linear distribution by the number of vesting years, shall not exceed the caps detailed below (it is clarified that these amounts are not necessarily consistent with the manner of recording the expense in the financial reports according to accounting rules customary in Israel):

| Officer | Annual Cap, NIS thousands |
|---|---|

| Officers subordinate to the CEO | 2,000 |
12. Restitution of Compensation Provided Based on Erroneous Financial Information
The officer will be required to pay back to the company excess payments paid to him as part of his employment terms, if they were paid based on data that turned out to be erroneous and were restated in the group's financial reports, provided that no more than three years have passed from the date of payment of the excess payments. The amount of the excess payments will be determined by the difference between the amount the officer received and the amount he would have received according to the corrected financial data restated in the financial reports. The company shall be entitled to offset the amount due to it as stated from any amount it must pay to the officer in the company (even in the event his employment has ended). It is hereby clarified that a restatement as a result of a change in accounting policy or initial adoption of an accounting policy will not cause the restitution of amounts from the officer as stated above. The compensation committee will decide on the manner of implementing the restitution mechanism according to its discretion while considering the circumstances of the specific case.
13. Retirement Grant and Notice Period
Officers who began their work in the company starting from May 31, 2021, will be entitled to a retirement grant, taking into account, among other things, the circumstances of retirement, the officer's contribution to the company during his term of office, the company's performance during his term, and his seniority in the company, as follows:

It is hereby clarified that the aforementioned payment of indemnification does not prejudice the right of the officer and/or the Company to receive insurance benefits for events constituting grounds for indemnification, which are secured in the insurance policy, subject to the provisions of Section 9.3 below. It is also clarified that the indemnification shall apply to deductible amounts for which the officer will be liable under the insurance policy. It is expressly emphasized that the Company's payments under the Indemnification Letter shall constitute an "additional layer" beyond the total insurance benefits paid by the insurer under the insurance policy, if such are paid.
4.2. It is emphasized that this undertaking for indemnification does not constitute a contract for the benefit of any third party, including any insurer, and it is not assignable. No third party, including an insurer, shall have any right to demand participation by the Company in a payment that an insurer is obligated to pay under an insurance agreement made with them, except for the deductible specified in the policy as stated.
4.3. If the total indemnification amounts the Company is required to pay to the officers of the Company at any time exceeds the Maximum Indemnification Amount or the balance of the Maximum Indemnification Amount (as it may exist at that time), the Maximum Indemnification Amount or its balance shall be divided among the officers who are entitled to indemnification for demands they submitted to the Company and were not paid to them before that time (hereinafter: the "Eligible Officers"), in such a way that the indemnification amount each of the Eligible Officers actually receives shall be calculated according to the ratio between the amount of the indemnifiable liability of each of the Eligible Officers and the aggregate amount of indemnifiable liabilities of all the Eligible Officers.
4.4. If at the actual date of indemnification the Company is aware of additional events for which it may be liable due to the granting of the Indemnification Letter to other officers in the Company (hereinafter: "Other Indemnification Cases") and the aggregate amount for which the Company may be liable due to the Indemnification Letter and due to the Other Indemnification Cases exceeds the Maximum Indemnification Amount, the Company shall be entitled to withhold the amount which in its opinion will be necessary for it to meet its obligation also towards the other officers and to pay the balance (in whole or in part, as the case may be) after the final total amount the Company must pay for its aforementioned obligations becomes clear.
4.5. If the Company has paid indemnification amounts to officers in the Company in the amount of the Maximum Indemnification Amount, the Company shall not bear additional indemnification amounts unless the payment of the additional indemnification amounts is approved by the Company's organs that are authorized to approve this increase by law, at the time of payment of the additional indemnification amounts and subject to an amendment of the Company's Articles of Association, if so required by law.

It is emphasized that the Company will not require the provision of any collateral by them as a condition for transferring the said funds.

11. Return of Paid Indemnity Amounts
11.1. In the event that the Company pays the officer or in his stead any amounts within the framework of this letter in connection with such a legal proceeding, including by way of providing legal representation as stated, and it later transpires that the officer is not entitled to indemnity from the Company for those amounts, these amounts shall be considered a loan provided to the officer by the Company, with the addition of: (a) interest at the minimum rate as shall be determined from time to time by law so that it does not constitute a taxable benefit for the loan recipient; (b) linkage differentials. The officer shall return these amounts to the Company when required in writing by it to do so, and according to a payment schedule that the Company shall determine, with the addition of VAT for the interest and linkage differentials according to law.
11.2. In the event it transpires that the charge for which the Company paid indemnity amounts has been canceled or its amount has decreased for any reason, the officer undertakes to assign all his rights for the return of such amount and to perform all necessary actions so that this assignment shall be valid.

12. Providing Securities for the Benefit of the Insurer
12.1. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Letter of Indemnity above (including Section 5 above) and since as detailed in Section 4.2 above the Company's payments shall constitute an "additional layer" beyond the insurance benefits to be paid to the officer by the insurer under the insurance policy, to the extent these are paid, in any event where the officer may be entitled to indemnity, in which the officer is required to incur various expenses and payments involved in handling legal proceedings conducted against him and related to that same event, the officer shall first approach the insurer for the purpose of receiving the funds necessary to cover the said expenses and payments. For this purpose, the Company hereby undertakes to provide for the benefit of the insurer all the securities required by the insurer, as may be required, for the purpose of receiving the said funds, provided that the height of said securities does not exceed the maximum indemnity amount, as defined above.
