Shareholders Entitled to Vote
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on Wednesday, March 6, 2024 (the "Record Date") will be entitled to receive notice of, and to vote on the matters to be presented at, the Special General Meeting. At the close of business on January 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding 117,963,310 Ordinary Shares. In the event of two or more shareholders that are joint holders of a share and are present and voting - only the vote of the head of the joint owners present and voting will be taken into consideration, and the votes of the other joint owners will not. For this purpose, the head of the joint owners will be considered the person whose name is recorded first in the register of shareholders from those present and voting.
How You Can Vote
A form of proxy card for use at the Special General Meeting is attached to this Proxy Statement and has been sent to the shareholders together with a prepaid return envelope for the proxy. By appointing "proxies", shareholders may vote at the Special General Meeting, whether or not they attend. If a properly executed proxy in the enclosed form is received by the Company within the timeframes outlined below, all of the Ordinary Shares represented by the proxy shall be voted as indicated on the proxy card. If you are a registered shareholder, subject to applicable law and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC ("Nasdaq"), in the absence of instructions, the Ordinary Shares represented by properly dated, executed and delivered proxies will be voted FOR all of the proposed resolutions to be presented at the Special General Meeting for which the Board of Directors recommends a "FOR" vote.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Special General Meeting, it is important that your Ordinary Shares be represented. Accordingly, you are kindly requested to complete, date, sign and mail the enclosed proxy in the envelope provided at your earliest convenience.

Shareholders of record are requested to complete, date and sign the enclosed form of proxy and to return it no later than Wednesday, April 10, 2024, at 6:59 a.m. Israel time (i.e.,11:59 p.m. ET on Tuesday, April 9, 2024) before the Special General Meeting starts), in the pre-addressed envelope provided. Alternatively, such shareholders may vote electronically before such time at www.proxyvote.com using the control number provided with your proxy materials.


If your Ordinary Shares are held through a bank, broker or other nominee, which in turn holds the shares through Cede & Co. as nominee for The Depository Trust Company, such Ordinary Shares are considered to be held in "street name" and you are the beneficial owner with respect to such Ordinary Shares ("Beneficial Owners"). A Beneficial Owner as of the Record Date has the right to direct the bank, broker or other nominee how to vote Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such Beneficial Owner at the Special General Meeting. If your Ordinary Shares were held in "street name" as of the Record Date, these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your bank, broker or other nominee (who is considered, with respect to such Ordinary Shares, as the shareholder of record), together with a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the bank, broker or nominee how to vote your Ordinary Shares.


Shareholders registered in the Company's shareholders register in Israel ("Registered Shareholders") and shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares through members of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE" and "TASE Member", respectively) that are included among the Ordinary Shares registered in the Company's shareholders register in Israel under the name of a nominee company in Israel ("Non-registered Shareholders") should deliver or mail (via registered mail) a completed written ballot (in the form filed by the Company via MAGNA, the online platform of the Israel Securities Authority ("TASE Ballot")) to the Company's offices, c/o Ms. Lisa Haimovitz, 13 Amal St., Afek Industrial Park, Rosh Ha'ayin 4809249, Israel no later than Wednesday, April 10, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. Israel time (i.e.,at least four (4) hours before the Special General Meeting starts). By this time, both Registered Shareholders and Non-registered Shareholders must also provide the Company with a copy of their identity card, passport or certificate of incorporation ("Identifying Information"). A TASE Ballot submitted by a Registered Shareholder without Identifying Information attached to it will not be valid. Non-registered Shareholders must also provide the Company with an ownership certificate confirming their ownership of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the Record Date, which certificate must be approved by a recognized financial institution ("Ownership Certificate"), as required by the Israel Companies Law 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law") and Israel Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership of Shares for Voting at General Meeting), 5760-2000, as amended. A TASE Ballot submitted by a Non-registered Shareholder without an Ownership Certificate attached to it will not be valid. A Non-registered Shareholder is entitled to receive the Ownership Certificate at the branch of the TASE Member through which such shareholder holds his Ordinary Shares, or request from such TASE Member to deliver it by mail. Such a request shall be provided to the relevant TASE Member in advance, and with respect to a specific securities account. A Non-registered Shareholder may direct the relevant TASE Member to deliver the Ownership Certificate to the Company through the electronic voting system of the Israel Securities Authority (the "Electronic Voting System"). Alternatively, Non-registeredShareholders may vote electronically via the Electronic Voting System, no later than Wednesday, April 10,2024, at 10:00 a.m. Israel time (i.e.,at least six (6) hours before the Special General Meeting starts). A Non-registeredShareholder should receive instructions about electronic voting from the TASE Member through which such Non-registeredShareholder holds his Ordinary Shares.

Execution of a proxy will not in any way affect a shareholder's right to attend the Special General Meeting and vote in person, and any person giving a proxy has the right to revoke it in accordance with Section 9 of the Israel Companies Law Regulations (Proxy Voting and Positions Statements), 2005 (the "Companies Law Regulations (Proxy Voting)").


Shareholders of record who intend to vote their Ordinary Shares in person are requested to bring proof of identity to the Special General Meeting.

2

Because a Beneficial Owner with shares held in "street name" is not a shareholder of record, such shareholders may not vote those Ordinary Shares directly at the Special General Meeting unless they obtain a "legal proxy" from the bank, broker or other nominee that holds the Ordinary Shares directly, giving them the right to vote the Ordinary Shares at the Special General Meeting. Brokers that hold ordinary shares in "street name" for clients typically have authority to vote on "routine" proposals even when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. None of the items on the Special General Meeting agenda may be considered routine. Therefore, it is important for a shareholder that holds Ordinary Shares through a bank, broker or other nominee to instruct its bank, broker or other nominee how to vote its Ordinary Shares, if the shareholder wants its Ordinary Shares to count for all proposals.


Both Registered Shareholders and Non-registered Shareholders who intend to vote their Ordinary Shares in person must provide the Company with Identifying Information and Non-registered Shareholders must also provide an Ownership Certificate, no later than Wednesday, April 10, 2024, at 14:00 p.m. Israel time (i.e., at least two (2) hours before the Special General Meeting starts). Both Registered Shareholders and Non-registered Shareholders may revoke their proxies or TASE Ballot (as applicable) in accordance with Section 9 of the Companies Law Regulations (Proxy Voting).
Even if you plan to attend the Special General Meeting, the Board unanimously recommends that you vote your shares in advance so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Special General Meeting.
Expenses and Solicitation
The Board of Directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Special General Meeting. The Company expects to mail this Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy cards to the shareholders on or about Monday, March 11, 2024. In addition to solicitation of proxies by the shareholders by mail, certain officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company may solicit proxies by telephone, mail or other personal contact. The Company will bear the cost of the solicitation of the proxies, including postage, printing and handling, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding materials to beneficial owners of Ordinary Shares.
This Proxy Statement and proxy card will also serve as a voting deed (ktav hatzba'a), as such term is defined under the Companies Law.
Change or Revocation of Proxy
Any shareholder of record at the close of business on the Record Date returning the accompanying proxy may revoke such proxy at any time prior to the Special General Meeting by: (i) giving written notice to us of such revocation; (ii) voting in person at the Special General Meeting or requesting the return of the proxy at the Special General Meeting; or (iii) executing and delivering to us a later-dated proxy prior to the Special General Meeting. Written revocations and later-dated proxies should be sent in accordance with Section 9 of the Companies Law Regulations (Proxy Voting), to the Company's offices, c/o Ms. Lisa Haimovitz, at 13 Amal St., Afek Industrial Park, Rosh Ha'ayin 4809249, Israel. Attendance at the Special General Meeting will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked unless you specifically so request.
If you are a Beneficial Owner with shares held in "street name," you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee in accordance with Section 9 of the Companies Law Regulations (Proxy Voting) or, if you have obtained a legal proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee giving you the right to vote your shares, by attending the Special General Meeting and voting in person. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of a TASE Member and wish to change your voting instructions, you must contact the TASE Member through which you hold your shares.
Quorum and Vote Required for Approval of Each of the Proposals
One (1) or more shareholders holding Ordinary Shares representing in the aggregate at least twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting power of the Company, present in person or by proxy at the Special General Meeting and entitled to vote thereat, will constitute a quorum (a "Quorum"). If within 30 minutes from the time appointed for the Special General Meeting a Quorum is not present, the Special General Meeting shall be adjourned to the same day of the following week, at the same time and place, or at such other day, time and place as shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors in a notification to the shareholders. In the event that a Quorum is not present 30 minutes from the time appointed for the reconvened meeting, the reconvened meeting will take place with any number of shareholders.
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the approval of each of Proposals 1 through 4 requires the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power represented at the Special General Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the matter presented, provided that with respect to only Proposals 1, 2 and 4 (as it relates to the chief executive officer), either: (i) such majority includes a majority of the Ordinary Shares voted at the Special General Meeting by shareholders who are not Controlling Shareholders (as defined below) and do not have a Personal Interest (as defined below) in the approval of such Proposal, disregarding abstentions; or (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares voted against the approval of such Proposal by shareholders referred to in sub-section (i) does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.
3
Under the Companies Law:
"Personal Interest" means a shareholder's personal interest in an act or a transaction of a company, including the personal interest of his or her Relatives (as defined below) or of an entity in which such shareholder or his or her Relative is an Interested Party (as defined below). Personal Interest excludes a personal interest arising solely from holding a company's shares and includes a Personal Interest of any person voting pursuant to a proxy provided to him or her by another person with respect to the proposal, even if the person providing the proxy does not have a Personal Interest. The vote of a person who is voting by a proxy provided to him or her on behalf of another who has a Personal Interest will also be seen as a vote of a person with a Personal Interest, whether the discretion to vote is in the hands of the voter or not.
"Relative" means a person's (a) brother, sister, parent, grandparent or descendant, (b) spouse, or (c) the spouse's brother, sister, parent or descendant (or in each case the spouse thereof).
"Interested Party" means any person that either:
(a) holds five percent (5%) or more of an entity's issued share capital or voting rights;
(b) has the right to appoint a director to an entity's board of directors or the chief executive officer thereof; or
(c) is a member of an entity's board of directors or serves as the chief executive officer thereof.
"Controlling Shareholder" means, for purposes of each Proposal and elsewhere as specifically referenced in this Proxy Statement, any shareholder who has the ability to direct the Company's activity, including any shareholder holding 50% or more of the "means of control" of the Company. "Means of control" is defined under Israeli law as any one of the following: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of the Company, or (ii) the right to appoint directors of the Company or its chief executive officer.
In connection with the above and for the purpose of only Proposals 1, 2 and 4 (as it relates to the chief executive officer), each shareholder who attends the Special General Meeting in person, by proxy or by a voting card will advise the Company or indicate in the proxy card or the voting card, as the case may be, whether or not that shareholder is a Controlling Shareholder or has a Personal Interest in the approval of each such Proposal. Failure to advise or indicate as described above will require the Company to assume that such shareholder has a Personal Interest in the approval of the relevant Proposal, and disqualify such shareholder's vote on such Proposal. The Company may not assume that a shareholder, who signs and returns a proxy card without a specific indication as to the absence of Personal Interest of such shareholder, has no Personal Interest with respect to Proposals 1, 2 and 4 (as it relates to the chief executive officer).
Abstentions and "broker non-votes" are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a Quorum. Apart from for the purpose of determining a Quorum, broker non-votes will not be counted as present and are not entitled to vote. Abstentions will not be treated as either a vote "FOR" or "AGAINST" a matter.
On each matter submitted to the shareholders for consideration at the Special General Meeting, only Ordinary Shares that are voted on such matter will be counted toward determining whether shareholders approved the matter. Ordinary Shares present at the Special General Meeting that are not voted on a particular matter (including broker non-votes) will not be counted in determining whether such matter is approved by shareholders.
Position Statements
Shareholders wishing to express their position on a proposal included in the agenda for the Special General Meeting may do so by submitting a written statement ("Position Statement") to the Company's offices, c/o Ms. Lisa Haimovitz, at 13 Amal St., Afek Industrial Park, Rosh Ha'ayin 4809249, Israel. Any Position Statement received that is in accordance with the guidelines set forth by the Companies Law will be furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on Form 6-K, and will be made available to the public on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov and, in addition, at http://www.magna.isa.gov.il or http://maya.tase.co.il. Position Statements must be submitted to the Company by no later than Sunday, March 31, 2024.
It is noted that there may be changes to the agenda after publishing this Proxy Statement and there may be Position Statements which can be published thereafter. Therefore, the most updated agenda for the Special General Meeting will be furnished to the SEC on a Form 6-K and will be made available to the public on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.
4
Other Matters
The Company is currently unaware of any other matters that may be raised at the Special General Meeting. Should any other matters be properly raised at the Special General Meeting, the persons designated as proxies will vote according to their own judgment on those matters. One or more shareholders holding at least one percent (1%) of the Company's total voting rights may present proposals for consideration at the Special General Meeting by submitting their proposals to the Company's offices, c/o Ms. Lisa Haimovitz, at 13 Amal St., Afek Industrial Park, Rosh Ha'ayin 4809249, Israel, no later than the close of business on Friday, March 8, 2024. If the Company determines that a shareholder's proposal is suitable for discussion at the Special General Meeting, a revised agenda will be published by the Company.
Voting Results
The final voting results will be tallied by the Company based on the information provided by our tabulation agent, Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., or otherwise, and the overall results of the Special General Meeting will be published following the Special General Meeting in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K that will be furnished to the SEC.
Reporting Requirements
The Company is subject to the information reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), applicable to foreign private issuers. The Company fulfills these requirements by filing reports with the SEC. The Company's filings are available to the public on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.
As a foreign private issuer, the Company is exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements. The circulation of this Notice and Proxy Statement should not be considered as an admission that the Company is subject to the proxy rules under the Exchange Act.
COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
For information concerning the salary expenses and social benefit costs of the Company's five highest compensated executive officers in the year ended December 31, 2022, see Item 6.B. of the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023 (the "Annual Report"), a copy of which is available on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov or on the Company's website at https://enlightenergy.co.il.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
According to the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the "Articles"), the number of Company directors must not be less than five (5) and shall not exceed thirteen (13) members. The term of office of the directors expires at each annual general meeting, provided that their respective replacement has been duly elected or appointed. At each annual general meeting the then-serving directors may be re-nominated to serve an additional one-year term that expires at the annual general meeting held in the year following such election, provided that their respective replacement has been duly elected or appointed.
As an Israeli company, the Company is subject to various corporate governance requirements under the Companies Law. However, pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, companies with shares traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, may, subject to certain conditions, opt out from certain Companies Law requirements, including a requirement to appoint "external directors" and related rules concerning the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee of the Board of Directors. Under these regulations, the exemptions from such Companies Law requirements will continue to be available to the Company so long as the Company complies with the following: (i) the Company does not have a "controlling shareholder" (as such term is defined under the Companies Law), (ii) the Company's Ordinary Shares are traded on certain U.S. stock exchanges, including Nasdaq, and (iii) the Company complies with the director independence requirements and the requirements regarding the composition of the audit committee and the compensation committee under U.S. laws (including applicable Nasdaq rules) applicable to U.S. domestic issuers.
The Company is a "foreign private issuer" (as such term is defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act). As a foreign private issuer, the Company is permitted to comply with Israeli corporate governance practices instead of the corporate governance rules of Nasdaq, provided that the Company discloses which requirements it is not following and the equivalent Israeli requirement. As a foreign private issuer, the Company is exempt under the Exchange Act from, among other things, the rules prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and the Company's officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In addition, the Company is not required under the Exchange Act to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. For more information regarding the Company's corporate governance practices and foreign private issuer status, see Item 16.G. "Corporate Governance" of the Company's Annual Report.
5
Committees of the Company's Board of Directors
The Board of Directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, a nominating committee, and an environmental, social and governance committee. Each committee operates in accordance with a written charter that sets forth such committee's structure, operations, membership requirements, responsibilities and authority to engage advisors, among other duties, as required by Nasdaq listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic listed companies. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Board of Directors. The Company's Board of Directors may establish other committees as it deems necessary or appropriate from time to time. The Company has elected to opt out from the Companies Law rules concerning the composition of the audit committee and compensation committee, and has instead elected to comply with the audit committee and compensation committee composition requirements of Nasdaq applicable to U.S. domestic listed companies. For more information regarding the Company's committees, see Item 6.C. "Board Practices- Committees of our Board of Directors" of the Company's Annual Report.
Other Corporate Governance Practices
Below is a summary of other key governance practices and policies that the Board of Directors believes help advance the Company's goals and protect the interests of the shareholders, including:
Base a portion of the compensation opportunity of our executive officers on our and their respective performance.
Annual bonuses are subject to the attainment of pre-set periodic objectives, individual and Company targets determined annually, and to discretionary evaluations.
Set annual performance targets to our chief executive officer based on measurable objectives.
Offer equity and cash compensation which we believe enhances alignment between executive officers' interests with the Company's and shareholders' long-term interests, as well as strengthens retention and motivation of executive officers in the long-term.
Adopted a 'clawback policy' and include in our Compensation Policy 'clawback' provisions which allow us under certain circumstances to recoup excess incentive compensation to executive officers where the company is required to prepare a financial restatement to correct a material error.
Taylor executive officers' compensation to target our short and long-term goals, as well as each officer's individual performance.
Maintain a majority independent Board of Directors.
Include in our compensation policy measures designed to reduce executive officers' incentives to take excessive risks that may harm us in the long-term, such as limit cash bonuses and equity-based compensation, as well as the ratio between the variable and the total compensation of an executive officer, and set minimum vesting periods for equity-based compensation.
Maintain entirely independent audit, compensation, and environmental, social and governance committees.
Regularly review executive compensation.
Designed and implemented revised Board procedures to comply with the requirements of a dually listed company.

PROPOSAL NO. 1
AMENDED COMPENSATION POLICY
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the Company is required, and has adopted, a compensation policy regarding the terms of employment and office of its officers. Pursuant to the Companies Law, the terms "officer" comprises, among others, a company's directors, general manager and each manager who is directly subordinate to the general manager. In addition, the Companies Law requires a publicly traded company such as the Company to periodically review its compensation policy and to re-approve the compensation policy at least once every three years. For a company to approve or re-approve a compensation policy, the Companies Law requires approval by the board of directors following approval by the compensation committee. In addition, the compensation policy requires approval by such company's shareholders with a special majority described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement. However, in the event that the compensation policy is not approved by the shareholders, the Companies Law permits the board of directors to approve it, provided that the compensation committee and the board of directors have determined, following further discussion of the matter and based on reasons to be specified, that the approval of the compensation policy is in the best interests of the company.
Our current compensation policy was approved by our shareholders in August 2021 for a period of up to three years. At the Special General Meeting, our shareholders will be asked to approve the amended compensation policy applicable to the Company's directors and officers, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Amended Compensation Policy"). Following review and approval by our compensation committee, our Board of Directors reviewed and approved the Amended Compensation Policy in November 2023 and recommended that shareholders do the same.
In their approval of the Amended Compensation Policy, the compensation committee and Board of Directors considered several factors, including (i) increased growth of the Company's operations, (ii) the Company's expanding global footprint and complexity, (iii) increased demands on executives as a result of being a U.S. public company dually listed in Israel, (iv) the Company's strong recent financial growth, (v) enhanced capital and debt structure, (vi) the need to retain qualified employees and managers in a competitive environment and (vi) the changing macroeconomic environment in which the Company operates. In addition to these factors, the compensation committee and Board of Directors considered the results of a comparative study of executive compensation with peer group companies in Israel and the U.S.
Increased Growth of Company's Operations
We have recently undergone a significant expansion of business activity, converting large portions of our pipeline into operational solar and wind projects while laying the foundation for continued rapid growth.

During 2023, 487 MW of energy generation capacity and 277 MWh of energy storage capacity reached commercial operation date (COD); projects with 154 MW and 110 MWh of capacity, respectively, entered into construction; and 871 MW and 2.7 GWh of capacity, respectively, entered the pre-construction phase as mature projects.

In 2024, Enlight expects to commence construction on projects with a combined total of over 1 GW of generation capacity and 2.9 GWh of storage capacity, while reaching COD on projects of over 0.5 GW of generation capacity and 1.6 GWh of storage capacity. Collectively these projects represent a growth of 84% above our current operational generation capacity and 1,615% of our current operational storage capacity. This represents a major step forward in the growth of the Company, reflecting the depth of our portfolio.
Expanding Global Footprint and Complexity
Although the Company is incorporated and headquartered in Israel, our operations have become increasingly global since 2021. We currently operate across 11 different countries on three continents and across multiple technologies. In August 2021, the same month as the current compensation policy was approved, we first entered the United States through the acquisition of Clēnera, our subsidiary. Since then, our U.S. and European operations have significantly deepened and expanded. Of our mature projects, 86% are located either in Europe or in the United States. In 2024, the complexity of the Company's international operations will continue to grow: we intend to commence construction on projects across three different states in the United States, three European countries and Israel.
Our global footprint, corporate structure and operating model require careful coordination of business activities, presenting our senior management with more complex legal, integration, communications, compliance and other challenges, and demanding more of their time and attention, as the Company has grown. In particular, our growing international presence requires compliance with an increasing number of tax regimes around the world, presenting challenges to Company senior management due to new and frequent changes to those tax laws and relevant tax treaties and revised interpretations of existing tax law and precedents, which can have a significant effect on our projects and results of operation and require significant time to manage.
10
Increased Demands as a Result of being a U.S. Public Company Dually Listed in Israel
Although our ordinary shares were previously listed on the TASE, we only became a public company in the U.S. in February 2023, when our shares were listed on Nasdaq for the first time.
A U.S. public listing entails significant additional finance, legal, accounting, compliance and other obligations which require management attention, with heightened potential sanctions associated with operating as a public company in the U.S. market. For example, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq and generally applicable U.S. securities rules and regulations each impose heightened requirements on U.S. public companies, including regarding public disclosure, establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices.
Since listing on Nasdaq, our management has dedicated substantial effort to comply with these obligations. Moreover, these complex rules and regulations have increased the legal and financial challenges associated with some of our operational activities, making them more time-consuming and demanding. The efforts and resources required to comply with requirements applicable to a U.S. public company are in addition to those required to comply with the Israeli requirements, as we continue to operate as a dually listed company.
Strong Recent Financial Growth
Enlight's full year 2023 financial results reveal the strength of Enlight's combined developer and IPP business model. Revenue was $256m, an increase of 33% year over year, net income was $98m, an increase of 157% year over year, and Adjusted EBITDA was $198m, an increase of 45% year over year, demonstrating Enlight's ability to deliver above-market growth and above-market returns. In a year of adversity across the renewable energy industry, Enlight's financial and operational performance stood out. In 2023, Enlight improved future project returns by amending PPA prices higher and capturing the decline in equipment costs. In addition, lower interest rates eased access to funding and increased the levered returns on our projects.
Enhanced Equity and Debt Structure
During the past few years, the Company's management realized considerable achievements in the field of financing, strengthening the Company's equity and debt structure, including:

Initial public offering on Nasdaq, in which the Company raised $271m in equity;

Financial close of Atrisco Solar in the fourth quarter of 2023 for $300m of construction finance and $198m of tax equity commitments, resulting in $204m of excess equity capital from the project being recycled back to the Company; and

Financial close of the Solar + Storage Cluster in Israel, in the fourth quarter of 2023 for $211m of project finance debt, and recycled $121m of excess equity capital from the project back to the Company.
As of February 26, 2024, the Company possesses total available revolving credit facilities of $260m, up $90m from the end of the third quarter.
Need to Retain Qualified Employees and Managers in a Competitive Environment
Concurrently with our increased global footprint and operations, the number of our employees has also increased substantially. As of December 31, 2020, we had 67 full-time employees and as of December 31, 2021 the number of our employees increased to 190 (95 of whom were employed with Clēnera in the U.S.). As of February 28, 2024, we had 279 full-time employees (133 of whom are employed with Clēnera in the U.S.), representing an increase of 316% and 47% compared to year-end 2020 and 2021, respectively. Our senior officers are obligated to manage a multiplicity of human resource issues that arise as a result of our burgeoning workforce.
Although the Company has been successful to date in recruiting and retaining highly qualified senior level employees, we face intense competition fueled by increased demand for qualified individuals in the technology and energy sectors, including for qualified directors and officers in Israel. We believe that our ability to recruit and maintain experienced directors and qualified senior executives in order to support continued growth in the Company's operations is one of the most important ongoing objectives that the Amended Compensation Policy is intended to help us address.
Changing Macroeconomic Environment
Since August 2021, the macro-economic environment in which we operate has evolved, presenting challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions and shortages of certain electronic components, and changing labor and regulatory environments. For example, several wind OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) struggled to meet their supply obligations during 2023.
In addition, the outbreak of hostilities between Russia and Ukraine in February 2022 led to global sanctions that have increased volatility associated with natural gas and electricity prices throughout Europe, increasing the complexity associated with planning European wind and solar projects. More recently, the ongoing war in Israel following a series of attacks on October 7, 2023 by the Hamas terrorist organization in southern Israel has raised personnel and other challenges, among others, associated with reserve call-ups of many of our employees.
11
Although we experienced no material disruptions in our operations during this period, the changing macroeconomic environment in which we operate has increased the time and attention required of our senior managers as they develop and implement a variety of strategies to mitigate risk.
Comparative Study of Executive Compensationwith Peer Group Companies
To prepare the Amended Compensation Policy, the compensation committee reviewed the current compensation policy and carefully considered several potential adjustments to adapt such policy to the increasing demands and obligations placed on our senior managers, as described above. The compensation committee also commissioneda comparative benchmark study comparing executive compensation of the Company with peer group companies in Israel and the U.S. (the "Comparative Benchmark").
The Comparative Benchmark conducted by Deloitte in October 2023 also made various recommendations for adjusting the compensation of our executives in order to remain competitive with the sample peer group companies included in the study, which in turn requires that certain amendments to our Compensation Policy be made.
The Comparative Benchmark was based on publicly available information for fiscal year 2022 with respect to the following compensation components: base salary, annual bonus and equity compensation. As part of the analysis, corresponding compensation components for the Company's officers in 2022 was considered.
Based on their review of the current compensation policy and the Comparative Benchmark, the compensation committee and Board considered the following proposed changes under the Amended Compensation Policy: new caps on base salary and annual bonus; revised ratios of salary cost of the officers and the average and median salary cost of other employees; revised ratios of the compensation package (salary cost, annual bonus and equity compensation) of each of the officers to the average and median compensation package of the other employees; and revised ratios of the variable and fixed compensation components. The changes were considered from the perspective of, among others, annual cost of salary, annual bonus, short- and long-term incentive, and the variable and fixed compensation components. Following such consideration, both the compensation committee and Board concluded that the proposed amendments were reasonable in light of market practices at peer group companies.
The Amended Compensation Policy
The proposed amendments to our compensation policy include, among others, the following changes, the description of which is qualified in its entirety to the text of the Amended Compensation Policy itself, which is marked to show changes from the current compensation policy and attached as Exhibit A:

The ratio between the salary cost of the officers and the average and median salary cost of other employees, and the ratio between the compensation package (salary cost, annual bonus and equity compensation) of each of the officers, to the average and median compensation package of the other employees, shall not exceed:
Ratio between salary cost to average cost of salary
Ratio between salary cost to median cost of salary
Ratio between compensation package to officers and average compensation package
Ratio between compensation package and median compensation package
Chief executive officer
1:10
1:12
1:20
1:30

Prior to the proposed changes to our compensation policy, the above ratios were set at:

Ratio between compensation package to officers and average compensation package
Ratio between compensation package and median compensation package
Chief executive officer

A deviation of up to 10% (instead of up to 3.5 times) from the above proposed ratios shall be considered reasonable and is therefore permitted. However, deviations to a greater extent than this must be discussed by the compensation committee and Board of Directors, and these may approve compensation that deviates from the ratios above by more than 10%.

The desired ratio between the variable and fixed compensation components of vice presidents will be applied to all officers instead of only to certain vice presidents. A deviation from these ratios exceeding 5% of the lower bound or 7% of the upper bound shall be brought for discussion before the compensation committee and the Board of Directors, and these may approve compensation that deviates from the ratios above, after having considered necessary changes due thereto.

The gross salaries of each officer (other than the chief executive officer) will be capped at NIS 80,000 (instead of such cap applying only to certain vice presidents and other officers having a cap of NIS 65,000, as is currently the case).

Non-executive directors will be entitled to equity compensation, not to exceed 50% of their total annual compensation.

The discretionary bonus which may be awarded to the chief executive officer shall not exceed three monthly salaries (instead of 20% of the total compensation package). It is clarified that the shareholders may approve a discretionary bonus exceeding such cap, subject to applicable law.

The cap on the chief executive officer's annual bonus will be 12 (instead of 10), excluding a discretionary bonus and bonus for outstanding performance.

The cap on retention bonuses for officers, other than the chief executive officer, in the amount of NIS 500,000, will be applied to all such officers (instead of such cap applying only to certain vice presidents and a cap of NIS 300,000 for the chief financial officer and the chief development officer).

In accordance with our 2010 Employee Option Allocation Plan, as amended in 2023 (the "2010 Plan"), RSUs and similar other equity compensation have been added to the equity compensation which may be granted to our officers and directors.

Officers will be entitled to ancillary benefits as set forth in the Amended Compensation Policy. Officers residing outside of Israel will be entitled to ancillary benefits, including as is customary in the country of residence, reimbursement of certain expenses in the discretion of the compensation committee and the Board of Directors, as necessary.

Increasing the advance notice period for the chief executive officer and the other officers from 6 to 8 months and from 4 to 6 months, respectively.

Applying the cap on retirement bonuses in the amount of up to 6 salaries, which applies to the chief executive officer and certain other officers of the Company, to all officers of the Company.

Clarifying that equity compensation will be granted to non-Israeli grantees in accordance with the applicable foreign law.

Authorizing us, under limited circumstances, to issue letters to our officers and directors exempting them from any liability towards us for damages caused to the Company as a result of a breach of their duty of care to the Company.
It is proposed that at the Special General Meeting, the following resolution be adopted:
"RESOLVED, to approve the amended Compensation Policy for executive officers and directors, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A."
The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power represented at the Special General Meeting, in person or by proxy and voting thereon, is required to adopt this resolution, provided that either: (i) such majority includes a majority of the Ordinary Shares voted by shareholders who are not Controlling Shareholders and do not have a Personal Interest in the approval of this Proposal, disregarding abstentions; or (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares voted against the approval of this Proposal by shareholders referred to in sub-section (i) does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.
THE COMPANY'S COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMEND A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THIS RESOLUTION.

PROPOSAL NO. 2
RSUs GRANT AND AMENDMENT TO COMPENSATION TERMS OF OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the compensation of the chief executive officer, including equity-based compensation, must be approved by the compensation committee, board of directors, and shareholders with a special majority described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, in that order. in February 2024, our compensation committee and Board of Directors approved, and recommended that the shareholders approve, the amended terms of engagement of our co-founder and chief executive officer, Mr. Gilad Yavetz, and the grant of 87,023 RSUs thereto.
The proposed amended terms of employment of Mr. Yavetz were determined with a view to promote the Company's objectives and needs, and arising out of a desire to offer a compensation package that would create the proper incentives for Mr. Yavetz, taking into account, among other things, the challenges facing the Company, its size, the scope of its business, the nature of its activities, and the extent of responsibility born by the Company's chief executive officer. In addition, compensation provided to chief executive officers of peer group companies in the Comparative Benchmark was considered.
During his 16-year tenure as our chief executive officer, Mr. Yavetz has led the Company to extraordinary achievements, turning Enlight into a global renewable energy leader. The Company's performance under Mr. Yavetz's leadership has been exceptional, during which a large backlog of projects matured into active and profitable projects in the scope of thousands of mega-watts. Every year the Company has presented strong and improved financial results compared to the previous year, and continues to show significant growth potential. Mr. Yavetz has also focused on creating a strong capital structure for the Company, which has allowed high-quality sources of financing to support the organic growth of its activities. In addition, Mr. Yavetz has instilled in the Company a culture that prioritizes environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices and, as a result, the Company has been recognized by international rating organizations as a leader in the industry. Under his leadership, various rating agencies including Entropy, Maala, MSCI and Sustainalytics have published improved ESG ratings for our Company. For example, Sustainalytics has ranked Enlight in the top 10th percentile of hundreds of utility companies in its ESG Risk Rating.
The compensation offered to Mr. Yavetz is intended to provide appropriate return for the services expected of him in light of his position as the chief executive officer of the Company, the scope of his responsibilities and his expected contribution to the Company's business. The position of the chief executive officer of the Company requires dedication of substantial time and efforts to manage the affairs of the Company and promote its various activities, including business development, entry into new product and geographic markets, examination and leading of various strategic transactions and investments, and driving various processes in the Company to increase profits. In addition, the reasons described above under Proposal No. 1 for amending our Compensation Policy, including the increased growth of Company's operations, its expanding global footprint and complexity and the increased demands on executives as a result of being a U.S. public company dually listed in Israel, are applicable with even more force and effect to our chief executive officer, who bears a significant portion of those additional responsibilities.
Our Board of Directors and compensation committee are unanimously of the opinion that Mr. Yavetz's experience contributes significantly to the advancement of the Company's strategy, especially in light of the needs and challenges it faces and Mr. Yavetz's many areas of expertise, and in particular his expertise in the Company's fields of activity.
The amended terms of service and employment for Mr. Yavetz are in accordance with the Company's Amended Compensation Policy, as described in Proposal 1 of this Proxy Statement, and will be provided contingent upon and subject to its approval by the shareholders as detailed above.
The ratio between the cost of the proposed fixed compensation to be provided to Mr. Yavetz under the amended terms of service (excluding bonuses and grants) and the average salary cost of the other employees of the Company (excluding bonuses and grants) is approximately 3.89, and the ratio of the cost of the compensation offered to Mr. Yavetz to the cost of the median salary in the Company is approximately 4.44. The Company's compensation committee is of the opinion that these ratios are appropriate and reasonable and will have no negative impact on the working relationships in the Company, considering the nature of the Company, its size and the mixture of personnel it employs.
The compensation committee believes that the compensation components offered to Mr. Yavetz, which include fixed compensation, variable compensation and equity compensation, will allow the Company to retain, encourage and incentivize the chief executive officer in his position over time, and promote realization of the Company's goals and objectives. In particular, the compensation committee believes that the proposed equity compensation component will allow us to share with Mr. Yavetz, proportionately, the fruits of the increase in the Company's value over time, thus incentivizing him to maximize the results of the Company's activities and the price of its ordinary shares in the long-term, as well as to encourage and strengthen his sense of partnership and interest in the long-term success of the Company.
14
In addition, according to the Comparative Benchmark described in Proposal 1 of this Proxy Statement, the total cost of the compensation provided to Mr. Yavetz in 2022 was in the bottom 23rd percentile of the peer group companies included in the analysis.
Taking into account all the data and considerations examined and described above, the compensation committee and Board concluded that the amended terms of engagement and equity compensation offered to Mr. Yavetz are reasonable, appropriate and consistent with the best interests of the Company, and are intended to provide Mr. Yavetz with appropriate incentives to maximize the Company's profits and achieve its goals.
Amended Compensation Terms
The following is a summary of the principal amended compensation terms to be provided to Mr. Yavetz.
Monthly Salary
It is proposed to update our chief executive officer's fixed salary, such that he will be entitled to a gross monthly compensation in the amount of NIS 108,000 per month (reflecting an annual employer's cost in the amount of approximately NIS 1,664 thousand), effective as of January 1, 2024. As of the date hereof and before the approval of the proposed update, the chief executive officer is entitled to a gross monthly compensation in the amount of NIS 105,000 (reflecting an annual employer's cost in the amount of approximately NIS 1,612 thousand).
Annual Bonus
The chief executive officer's annual bonus cap will be updated to 10 monthly salaries (excluding a discretionary bonus and a bonus for outstanding performance). The chief executive officer's current annual bonus cap is 9 monthly salaries (excluding a discretionary bonus and a bonus for outstanding performance).
Equity Compensation Grant
Subject to the approval of the Amended Compensation Policy by our shareholders, it is proposed to grant the chief executive officer 87,023 RSUs, which would automatically convert upon vesting to 87,023 ordinary shares of the Company. The RSUs will vest in four equal annual installments of 25%, with the first installment to vest a year from the grant date and an additional 25% to vest on each annual anniversary of the vesting date thereafter. The RSUs will be granted under the Company's 2010 Plan and subject to its terms, including with respect to any adjustment and acceleration mechanisms, as well as the relevant grant letter or agreement. The RSUs shall continue to vest so long as Mr. Yavetz serves as an officer of the Company.
The Board of Directors may accelerate the vesting period of options or RSUs, in whole or part, upon the occurrence of certain events, including upon change of control of the Company or delisting of the Company's shares from any exchange, all in accordance with the Company's Compensation Policy and the specific grant agreement.
The ordinary shares of the Company received upon vesting of the RSUs will be registered for trade on the TASE. In addition, such ordinary shares will also be subject to the registration statement on Form S-8 filed by the Company with the SEC on April 17, 2023.
The following is a breakdown of the total compensation expected to be paid per year to Mr. Yavetz pursuant to his amended terms of engagement including the proposed RSUs awards (in terms of cost to the Company, in NIS thousands), in accordance with the sixth addendum to the Israeli Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1980:

The approval of this resolution is subject to the approval of resolution no. 1 regarding the amendments to our Compensation Policy.
THE COMPANY'S COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMEND A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THIS RESOLUTION.

PROPOSAL NO. 3
RSUs GRANTS TO BOARD MEMBERS
In February 2024, the compensation committee and Board of Directors approved, respectively, and recommended that the Company's shareholders approve, the grant RSUs to the non-executive members of our Board of Directors. Such RSUs will be awarded without consideration, and will automatically convert into an equal number of ordinary shares of the Company upon vesting. The RSUs will vest in three equal annual installments of 33 1/3%, with the first installment to vest a year from the grant date and an additional 33 1/3% to vest on each annual anniversary of the vesting date thereafter. The RSUs will be granted to the chairman and other directors under the 2010 Plan and the Amended Compensation Policy and be subject to its terms, including with respect to any adjustment and acceleration mechanisms, as well as the relevant grant letter or agreement.
To develop the RSU grant recommendations, the members of the compensation committee and Board of Directors were presented with comparative data regarding equity compensation for non-executive directors in companies with similar market characteristics as part of the Comparative Benchmark. The members of the compensation committee and Board of Directors believe that the proposed grants are on market terms, and are in line with customary and acceptable practices regarding remuneration of directors in Israeli and dually listed companies with similar characteristics. Furthermore, the compensation committee is of the opinion that the value of the proposed grants would not create an unwanted risk appetite for our non-executive directors.
If the proposed RSUs grants are approved by the shareholders, we would be awarding RSUs to our Board members for the first time.
The ordinary shares of the Company received upon vesting of the RSUs will be registered for trade on the TASE. In addition, such ordinary shares will also be subject to the registration statement on Form S-8 filed by the Company with the SEC.
Following is a breakdown of the compensation expected to be paid per year to our non-executive directors (in terms of cost to the Company, in NIS thousands), including the proposed RSUs awards, in accordance with the sixth addendum to the Israeli Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1980:

The compensation committee and Board of Directors believe that awarding the proposed equity compensation to non-executive directors of the Company will allow the Company to provide them with appropriate and balanced incentives that are consistent with the scope and nature of the Company's operations. The compensation committee and Board of Directors further believe that awarding RSU's compensation creates an appropriate correlation between the price of our ordinary shares and the interests of our shareholders, on the one hand, and the compensation of our directors, on the other. Additionally, the proposed equity compensation awards are in accordance with the terms of the Amended Compensation Policy, as described in Proposal 1 of this Proxy Statement, and will be awarded contingent upon and subject to its approval by the shareholders as detailed above. The Amended Compensation Policy provides, among other provisions, that equity compensation awards to directors shall not exceed 50% of a director's total annual compensation.
The compensation committee and Board of Directors are of the opinion that awarding the proposed equity compensation promotes the goals and objectives of the Company and its policies from a long-term perspective, appropriately considers the risks associated with the Company's operations, and adjusts the components of the compensation package to the size of the Company and the nature of its operations. In addition, the reasons described above under Proposal No. 1 for amending our Compensation Policy, including the increased growth of Company's operations, its expanding global footprint and complexity and the increased demands on executives as a result of being a U.S. public company dually listed in Israel, are applicable to our non-executive board members, who bears a significant portion of those additional responsibilities.
In accordance with the above, the compensation committee and Board of Directors are of the opinion that the proposed RSUs grants to our non-executive directors, are in the best interest of the Company, in accordance with the Companies Law and are fair and reasonable under the circumstances.
It is proposed that at the Special General Meeting, the following separate resolutions be adopted:
"RESOLVED, to approve grants of restricted share units to each of the Company's directors, other than the chief executive officer, as follows:

a.
14,233 restricted share units to Mr. Yair Seroussi, the Company's chairman.

b.
5,112 restricted share units to Ms. Liat Benyamini.

c.
5,112 restricted share units to Mr. Yitzhak Betzalel.

d.
5,112 restricted share units to Ms. Alla Felder.

e.
5,112 restricted share units to Mr. Zvi Furman.

f.
5,112 restricted share units to Ms. Michal Tzuk.

g.
5,112 restricted share units to Dr. Shai Weil.
The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power represented at the Special General Meeting, in person or by proxy and voting thereon, is required to adopt this resolution. The approval of this resolution is subject to the approval of resolution no. 1 regarding the amendments to our Compensation Policy.
THE COMPANY'S COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY
RECOMMEND A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE ABOVE SEPARATE RESOLUTIONS.

PROPOSAL NO. 4
ISSUANCE OF EXEMPTION LETTERS TO OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTORS
We have entered into agreements with each of our directors and executive officers, including our chief executive officer, undertaking to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by law (the "Indemnification Letters"). This indemnification is limited to events determined as foreseeable by the Board of Directors based on our activities, and to an amount or according to criteria determined by the Board of Directors as reasonable under the circumstances.
Our compensation committee and Board of Directors have approved, and recommend that our shareholders approve, the issuance of, in addition to the Indemnification Letters, exemption letters to our currently serving directors and officers, including our chief executive officer, and to any other officer who will serve in the Company from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law in effect from time to time, exempting them from any liability towards us for damages caused to the Company as a result of a breach of their duty of care to the Company in good faith, in their capacity as officers of the Company or any subsidiary or affiliate thereof. Such exemption shall not apply to a breach of the duty of care in connection with distributions (as defined in the Companies Law) and the breach of the duty of care in connection with a transaction in which a controlling shareholder or an officer of the Company has a personal interest.
Our amended and restated articles of association permit us to grant such exemption from liability to our directors and officers, including the chief executive officer.
The proposed exemption from liability is common in Israeli companies, and is intended to complement the indemnity protection available to our directors and officers under the Indemnification Letters and our directors and officers insurance policies the Company maintains. The compensation committee and Board of Directors believe that the proposed issuance of the exemption letters provides further protection of the Company's interests and reflects an adequate and desired balance between protection of such interests and the provision of appropriate and customary protection to the serving directors and officers, including the chief executive officer. In addition, the proposed issuance of the exemption letters will enable the Company to retain highly qualified directors and officers, who, through their efforts and expertise, make a significant contribution to the Company's success, and hence the compensation committee and Board of Directors believe that issuance of the exemption letters is in the best interests of the Company. The compensation committee and Board of Directors have also considered the considerations required under our Amended Compensation Policy and determined that the proposed issuance of the exemption letters complies with the provisions of the Amended Compensation Policy.
It is proposed that at the Special General Meeting, the following separate resolutions be adopted:
"RESOLVED, to approve the issuance of an exemption letter to our chief executive officer and each of our directors, exempting them from liability towards the Company under certain limited circumstances."
The affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power represented at the Special General Meeting, in person or by proxy and voting thereon, is required to adopt each separate resolution, provided that with respect only to resolution (a.), either: (i) such majority includes a majority of the Ordinary Shares voted by shareholders who are not Controlling Shareholders and do not have a Personal Interest in the approval of this resolution, disregarding abstentions; or (ii) the total number of Ordinary Shares voted against the approval of this resolution by shareholders referred to in sub-section (i) does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company. The approval of this resolution is subject to the approval of resolution no. 1 regarding the amendments to our Compensation Policy.
THE COMPANY'S COMPENSATION COMMITTEE AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY
RECOMMEND A VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE ABOVE SEPARATE RESOLUTIONS.

OTHER BUSINESS
Other than as set forth above, as of the mailing of this Proxy Statement, the Company knows of no business to be transacted at the General Meeting; however, if any other matters are properly presented at the General Meeting, it is intended that the persons named as proxies will vote upon such matters, pursuant to their discretionary authority, according to their best judgment and in the interest of the Company.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Proxy Statement presents Adjusted EBITDA, a financial metric, which is provided as a complement to the results provided in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). A reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial information to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is provided in the accompanying tables found in the Appendix at the end of this Proxy Statement.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, share based compensation, finance expenses, taxes on income and share in losses of equity accounted investees and minus finance income and non-recurring other income. Non-recurring other income for the fourth quarter of 2023 included income recognized in relation to the reduction of earnout we expect to pay as part of the Clenera Acquisition and other income recognized in relation to tax credits for projects in the United States. With respect to other expense (income), as part of Enlight's strategy to accelerate growth and reduce the need for equity financing, the Company sells parts of, or entire, developed assets from time to time, and therefore includes realized gains and losses from these asset dispositions in Adjusted EBITDA. Our management believes Adjusted EBITDA is indicative of operational performance and ongoing profitability and uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance and for planning and forecasting purposes.
Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial information presented under IFRS. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-IFRS financial measures versus comparable financial measures determined under IFRS. For example, other companies in our industry may calculate the non-IFRS financial measures that we use differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. All of these limitations could reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the related IFRS financial measure, Net Income, and the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA provided below to Net Income and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

To calculate the cost ratios, strict ratios were taken into consideration, while taking into consideration the monthly salary and related costs, bonuses (assuming that targets are fully met) and the cost of options in the coming year, etc. With respect to the other employees of the Company, the aggregate employment cost and related benefits were taken into consideration, excluding bonuses and/or costs of option grants.
The annual cost of the equity based compensation shall be calculated by dividing the total costs by the number of years (and not according to the annual expense recorded on our books).
The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors estimate that these ratios are appropriate and reasonable in light of the Company's characteristics, and they will not adversely affect labor relations within the Company2.
Given that the Company is growing, members of the Compensation Committee andBoard of Directors in the Company believe that the Company should have, on the one hand, determined reasonable and appropriate salary ratios between the office holders and all Company employees, and on the other hand, determined salary ratios that match the nature of the Company's operations and advanced growth. Due to , it becoming a dual-listed company, and the growthincrease in the Company's activity and its staff number from year toon year, it is clear that shifts in the Company's staff numberis also characterized by hiring employees abroad, which may have a material effect on salary ratios, without diminishing the Company employees' motivation and sense of identification with its activity and operations.
