Board Recommendation

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" each of proposals 2 to 9.

Who Can Vote

Only shareholders and ADS holders at the close of business on January 23, 2023 shall be entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

How You Can Vote

You can vote your ordinary shares by attending the Annual Meeting. If you do not plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the method of voting will differ for shares held as a record holder, shares held in "street name" (through a Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, or TASE, member) and shares underlying ADSs that you hold. Record holders of shares will receive proxy cards. Holders of shares in "street name" through a TASE member will also vote via a proxy card, but through a different procedure (as described below). Holders of ADSs (whether registered in their name or in "street name") will receive voting instruction cards in order to instruct their banks, brokers or other nominees on how to vote.

Shareholders of Record

If you are a shareholder of record, you can submit your vote by completing, signing and submitting a proxy card, which has been published at www.magna.isa.gov.il, to the Company's office at 5 Badner Street, Ramat Gan 5218102, Israel.

Please follow the instructions on the proxy card.

Shareholders Holding in "Street Name" through the TASE

If you hold ordinary shares in "street name," that is, through a bank, broker or other nominee that is admitted as a member of the TASE, your shares will only be voted if you provide instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee as to how to vote, or if you attend the Annual Meeting in person.

If voting by mail, you must sign and date a proxy card in the form filed by us on MAGNA on January 20, 2023 and attach to it a certificate signed by the TASE Clearing House member through which the shares are held, which complies with the Israel Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership for Voting in General Meetings)-2000 as proof of ownership of the shares on the record date, and return the proxy card, along with the proof of ownership certificate, to the offices of our attorneys, Doron Tikotzky Kantor Gutman Nass & Amit Gross. (Attention: Ronen Kantor, Adv.) located at 7 Metsada st., B.S.R Tower 4, Bnei Brak, Israel, as described in the instructions available on MAGNA.

If you choose to attend the Annual Meeting (where ballots will be provided), you must bring the proof of ownership certificate from the TASE's Clearing House member through which the shares are held, indicating that you were the beneficial owner of the shares on the record date.

Holders of ADSs

Under the terms of the Deposit Agreement between the Company, The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary, or BNY Mellon, and the holders of our ADSs, BNY Mellon shall endeavor (insofar as is practicable) to vote or cause to be voted the number of shares represented by ADSs in accordance with the instructions provided by the holders of ADSs to BNY Mellon. For ADSs that are held in "street name", through a bank, broker or other nominee, the voting process will be based on the underlying beneficial holder of the ADSs directing the bank, broker or other nominee to arrange for BNY Mellon to vote the ordinary shares represented by the ADSs in accordance with the beneficial holder's voting instructions. If no instructions are received by BNY Mellon from any holder of ADSs (whether held directly by a beneficial holder or in "street name") with respect to any of the shares represented by the ADSs on or before the date established by BNY Mellon for such purpose, BNY Mellon shall not vote or attempt to vote the shares represented by such ADSs.

3

Multiple Record Shareholders or Accounts

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this document and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, shareholders who hold ADSs in more than one brokerage account will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which ADSs are held. Shareholders of record whose shares are registered in more than one name will receive more than one proxy card. You should complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card you receive.

Our Board of Directors urges you to vote your shares so that they will be counted at the Annual Meeting or at any postponements or adjournments of the Annual Meeting.

Solicitation of Proxies

By appointing "proxies", shareholders and ADS holders may vote at the Annual Meeting whether or not they attend. If a properly executed proxy in the attached form is received by us at least 48 hours prior to the Annual Meeting (and received by BNY Mellon no later than the date indicated on the voting instruction card, in the case of ADS holders), all of the shares represented by the proxy shall be voted as indicated on the form or, if no preference is noted, shall be voted in favor of the matter described above, and in such manner as the holder of the proxy may determine with respect to any other business as may come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Shareholders and ADS holders may revoke their proxies at any time before the deadline for receipt of proxies by filing with us (in the case of holders of ordinary shares) or with BNY Mellon (in the case of holders of ADSs), a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date.

Proxies are being distributed to shareholders and to ADS holders on or about January 20, 2023. Certain officers, directors, employees, and agents of ours, none of whom will receive additional compensation therefor, may solicit proxies by telephone, emails, or other personal contact. We will bear the cost for the solicitation of the proxies, including postage, printing, and handling, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding material to beneficial owners of shares and ADSs.

To the extent you would like to submit a position statement with respect to any of the Proposals described in this proxy statement pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law"), you may do so by delivery of appropriate notice to the offices of our attorneys, Doron Tikotzky Kantor Gutman Nass & Amit Gross. (Attention: Ronen Kantor, Adv.) located at 7 Metsada St., B.S.R Tower 4, Bnei Brak, Israel, not later than ten days before the convening of the Annual Meeting. Response of the Board of Directors to the position statement may be submitted not later than five days after the deadline for sending the position statement.

Quorum

At the close of business of January 20, 2023, we had outstanding 544,906,149 ordinary shares, of which 290,048,900 were represented by ADSs. Each ordinary share (including ordinary shares represented by ADSs) outstanding as of the close of business on the record date is entitled to one vote upon each of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.

The quorum required to hold the Annual Meeting consists of at least two shareholders present in person or by proxy who hold or represent between them at least one-third of the voting rights in the Company. If the Meeting is adjourned for lack of a quorum it will be held on the same day in the following week at the same time and place (with no need for any notice to the shareholders) or until such other later time if we serve notice to the shareholders no less than seven days before the date fixed for the such adjourned Meeting (the "Deferred Meeting"). If at a Deferred Meeting there is no quorum present half an hour after the time set for the Meeting, any number participating in the Deferred Meeting shall represent a quorum and shall be entitled to discuss the matters set down on the agenda for the original Annual Meeting.

4

Vote Required for Each Proposal

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on such Proposals in person or by proxy at the Meeting is necessary for the approval of each of Proposal 2 through 9.

In addition, the approval of the Proposals 8 and 9 must either include at least a majority of the ordinary shares voted by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders nor are they shareholders who have a personal interest in the proposal, or the total ordinary shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against the proposal must not represent more than 2% of the outstanding ordinary shares.

Under the Israeli Companies Law, in general, you will be deemed to be a controlling shareholder if you have the power to direct our activities, otherwise than by reason of being a director or other office holder of ours, if you hold 250% or more of the voting rights in our Company or have the right to appoint the majority of the directors of the Company or its chief executive officer, and you are deemed to have a personal interest if any member of your immediate family or their spouse has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. In addition, you are deemed to have a personal interest if a company, other than Can-Fite, that is affiliated to you has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. Such company is a company in which you or a member of your immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, you are not deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if your interest in such proposal arises solely from your ownership of our shares, or to a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.

In the proxy card and voting instruction card attached to the proxy statement you will be asked to indicate whether you have a personal interest with respect to the proposal. If any shareholder casting a vote in connection hereto does not notify us whether or not they have a personal interest with respect to the proposal, their vote with respect to the proposal will be disqualified.

If you provide specific instructions (mark boxes) with regard to certain Proposals, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign and return your proxy card or voting instruction form without giving specific instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors. The proxy holders will vote in their discretion on any other matters that properly come before the Annual Meeting.

If you are a shareholder of record and do not return your proxy card, your shares will not be voted. If you hold shares (or ADSs representing shares) beneficially in street name, your shares will also not be voted at the Annual Meeting if you do not return your proxy card or voting instruction card to instruct your broker or BNY Mellon how to vote. For all proposals, a broker (and BNY Mellon) may only vote in accordance with instructions from a beneficial owner of shares or ADSs. This will be true even for a routine matter, such as proposal 2 (the approval of the re-appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm and authorization of our Board of Directors to fix such accounting firm's annual compensation), as your broker and BNY Mellon will not be permitted to vote your shares in their discretion on any proposal at the Annual Meeting. For all proposals, a broker (and BNY Mellon) may only vote in accordance with instructions from a beneficial owner of shares or ADSs.

Availability of Proxy Materials

Copies of the proxy card and voting instruction card, the Notice of the Annual Meeting and this Proxy Statement are available at the "Investor Information" portion of our website, http://www.xtlbio.com/. The contents of that website are not a part of this Proxy Statement.

PROPOSAL 8:

RE-ELECTION OF MRS. IRIS SHAPIRA YALON TO HOLD OFFICE AS EXTERNAL DIRECTOR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY

Background

In accordance with the Companies Law and the relevant regulations, we must have at least two external directors who meet the statutory requirements of independence. Under Companies Law, an external director serves for a term of three years, which may be extended for two additional three-year terms. Further, an external director can be removed from office only under very limited circumstances. In addition, under the Companies Law, all of the external directors must serve on our audit committee and compensation committee (including one external director serving as the chairman of our audit committee and as the chairman of our compensation committee), and at least one external director must serve on each other committee of our Board of Directors.

To qualify as an external director, an individual must meet various independence requirements, including that such individual may not have, and may not have had at any time during the previous two years, any "affiliation" (as defined in the Companies Law) with the company or with certain of its affiliates. In addition, no individual may serve as an external director if the individual's position or other activities create or may create a conflict of interest with his or her role as an external director.

Mrs. Iris Shapira Yalon served as an external director of the Company from February 2020 and the re-election proposed herein will be for a second consecutive term of three (3) years commencing as of February 23, 2023.

Iris Shapira Yalon joined the Bords of Directors of the Company in February 2020. She most recently served as External Director of Electra Real Estate Ltd., as well as Director of Rotem Industries Ltd. (Israeli government-owned company). In addition to serving as Board member on a number of TASE listed companies, including Computer Direct Group Ltd. and on a dual listed company such as TAT Technologies Ltd., Ms. Yalon served as the Chief Financial Officer of multiple companies such as Kryon Systems Ltd., Haldor Advanced Technologies Ltd., Mofet Technology Fund Ltd., and Cloverleaf Media Ltd., which was acquired in 2010 by Dot Hill. Moreover, Ms. Yalon has served as Audit Team Manager at Ernest & Young. She earned a BA in Economics and Accounting (cum laude) at Tel Aviv University and she is licensed accountant.

Proposed Resolutions

It is proposed that at the Annual Meeting the following resolutions be adopted:

"RESOLVED, to re-elect Mrs. Shapira Yalon as external director of the Company Board, commencing as of the Meeting date and for a period of 3 years thereon."

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on this proposal in person or by proxy is necessary for the approval of the resolution to approve the re-election of the external director. In addition, the shareholders' approval must either include at least a majority of the ordinary shares voted by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders nor are they shareholders who have a personal interest in the approval of the re-election of the external director, or the total ordinary shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against this proposal must not represent more than 2% of the outstanding ordinary shares.

For this purpose, you are asked to indicate on your proxy card or voting instruction card whether you have a personal interest in the re-election of the external director. Under the Israeli Companies Law, in general, you are deemed to have a personal interest if any member of your immediate family or their spouse has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. In addition, you are deemed to have a personal interest if a company, other than the Company, that is affiliated to you has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. Such company is a company in which you or a member of your immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, you are not deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if your interest in such proposal arises solely from your ownership of our shares, or to a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.

Board Recommendation

Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of the foregoing external director nominee.

PROPOSAL 9:

APPROVAL OF OPTION GRANT TO MRS. IRIS SHAPIRA YALON

Background

In accordance with the Israeli Companies Law and the relevant regulations, we are required to pay our external directors in consideration of their service under the Israeli Remuneration Regulations 5760-2000 ("Remuneration Regulations"). Under the Remuneration Regulations the equity renumeration of external directors shall be determined by Shareholders of the Company at the time of election of the external directors and such remuneration shall not be amended for a period of time of three (3) years.

It is customary of the Company to determine the grant of 150,000 options as equity remuneration of external directors ("Option Grant") at the time of their election. On the time of election of Mrs. Shapira Yalon in February 2020, the resolution in relation to the Option Grant was mistakenly omitted from the agenda of the Annual Meeting in the framework of which Mrs. Yalon Shapira was elected to hold office as external director of the Board of Directors of the company for the first term of three (3) years ("First Election").

Therefore, it is proposed that Mrs. Iris Shapira Yalon is entitled to a grant of 150,000 options to purchase, 150,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company, at an exercise price of Israeli Agurot 4.95 (average Company's share price in the thirty trading days prior to First Election date) per option. The options shall vest on a quarterly basis over thirty-six months as of November 27, 2019 so that 1/12 of the options shall vest on the last day of each three months period, provided that on such date Mrs. Shapira Yalon shall serve as a non-executive director of the Company.

Proposed Resolutions

It is proposed that at the Annual Meeting the following resolutions be adopted:

"RESOLVED, to approve that Mrs. Iris Shapira Yalon shall receive, for its services as external director to the Board of Directors of the Company the equity remuneration as described in this proxy statement."

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting on this proposal in person or by proxy is necessary for the approval of the resolution to approve the equity remuneration of the external director. In addition, the shareholders' approval must either include at least a majority of the ordinary shares voted by shareholders who are not controlling shareholders nor are they shareholders who have a personal interest in the approval of the re-election of the external director, or the total ordinary shares of non-controlling shareholders and non-interested shareholders voted against this proposal must not represent more than 2% of the outstanding ordinary shares.

For this purpose, you are asked to indicate on your proxy card or voting instruction card whether you have a personal interest in the equity remuneration of the external director. Under the Israeli Companies Law, in general, you are deemed to have a personal interest if any member of your immediate family or their spouse has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. In addition, you are deemed to have a personal interest if a company, other than the Company, that is affiliated to you has a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal. Such company is a company in which you or a member of your immediate family serves as a director or chief executive officer, has the right to appoint a director or the chief executive officer, or owns 5% or more of the outstanding shares. However, you are not deemed to have a personal interest in the adoption of the proposal if your interest in such proposal arises solely from your ownership of our shares, or to a matter that is not related to a relationship with a controlling shareholder.

Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the approval of the foregoing external director equity remuneration.
