QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE 2025 Annual MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?
The Record Date for the Annual Meeting is October 9, 2025. You are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on that date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote for all matters before the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on October , 2025, there were shares of common stock outstanding.
What is the difference between being a “record holder” and holding shares in “street name”?
A record holder (also referred to as a “registered stockholder”) holds shares in his or her name. Shares held in “street name” means shares that are held in the name of a bank or broker on a person’s behalf.
Am I entitled to vote if my shares are held in “street name”?
Yes. If your shares are held by a bank or a brokerage firm, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of those shares held in “street name.” If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials are being provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm, along with a voting instruction card if you received printed copies of our proxy materials. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank or brokerage firm how to vote your shares, and the bank or brokerage firm is required to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If your shares are held in “street name” and you would like to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, you should contact your bank or brokerage firm to obtain a “legal proxy” to bring to the Annual Meeting.
How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?
A quorum must be present at the Annual Meeting for any business to be conducted. The presence in person at the Annual Meeting or by proxy, of the holders of not less than 33 1/3 percent of the voting power of all classes and series of stock entitled to vote at the meeting will constitute a quorum.
Who can attend the Annual Meeting?
You may attend the Annual Meeting in person only if you are an Odysight.ai stockholder of record who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. If you would like to attend the Annual Meeting, you must contact Ms. Tanya Yosef by email at Info@odysight.ai or phone at +972-73-370-4690 no later than 5:00 p.m. IDT on December 1, 2025 to have your name placed on the attendance list. In order to be admitted into the Annual Meeting, your name must appear on the attendance list and you must present government-issued photo identification (such as a driver’s license). If your shares are held in “street name,” you should contact your bank or brokerage firm to obtain a “legal proxy” to bring to the Annual Meeting.
| 9 |
What if a quorum is not present at the Annual Meeting?
If a quorum is not present at the scheduled time of the Annual Meeting, the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting are authorized by our Amended and Restated Bylaws (our “Bylaws”) to adjourn the meeting from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place.
What does it mean if I receive more than one Internet Notice or more than one set of proxy materials?
It means that your shares are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each Internet Notice or set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.
How do I vote?
Stockholders of Record. If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or by proxy. There are three ways to vote by proxy:
| ● | by Internet - You can vote over the Internet by going to www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions; | |
| ● | by Telephone - You can vote by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903 and following the instructions; or | |
| ● | by Mail - If you received a proxy card, you can vote by mail by signing and dating the proxy card and returning it in accordance with the instructions on the card |
Internet and telephone voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern time, on December 1, 2025. To vote via the Internet or telephone, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Internet Notice or on your proxy card.
Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting in person, we urge you to vote your shares as promptly as possible to ensure your representation and the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. If you submit your proxy, you may still decide to attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares in person.
Beneficial Owners of Shares Held in “Street Name.” If your shares are held in “street name” through a bank or broker, you will receive instructions on how to vote from the bank or broker. You must follow their instructions in order for your shares to be voted. Internet and telephone voting also may be offered to stockholders owning shares through certain banks and brokers. If your shares are not registered in your own name and you would like to vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting, you should contact your bank or broker to obtain a “legal proxy” and bring it to the Annual Meeting.
Can I change my vote after I submit my proxy?
Yes.
If you are a registered stockholder, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote:
| ● | by submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date; | |
| ● | by granting a subsequent proxy through the Internet or telephone; | |
| ● | by giving written notice of revocation to the Secretary of Odysight.ai prior to or at the Annual Meeting; or | |
| ● | by voting in person at the Annual Meeting. |
Your most recent proxy card or proxy submitted by Internet or telephone is the one that is counted. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting by itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Secretary before your proxy is voted or you vote in person at the Annual Meeting.
If your shares are held in street name, you may change or revoke your voting instructions by following the specific directions provided to you by your bank or broker, or you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting by obtaining a “legal proxy” and bringing it to the Annual Meeting.
Do I have any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to any of the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting?
No. None of our stockholders has any dissenters’ or appraisal rights with respect to the matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting.
Who will count the votes?
, our inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, will tabulate and certify the votes.
What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted?
If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors’ recommendations are indicated on page 8 of this proxy statement, as well as with the description of each proposal in this proxy statement.
| 10 |
Will any other business be conducted at the Annual Meeting?
We know of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other matter properly comes before the stockholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting, however, the proxy holders named on the Company’s proxy card will vote your shares in accordance with their best judgment.
Will there be a question and answer (Q&A) session during the Annual Meeting?
As part of the Annual Meeting, we will hold a live Q&A session, during which we intend to answer questions submitted during the meeting that are pertinent to the Company and the meeting matters, as time permits. Only stockholders admitted to the Annual Meeting by following the procedures outlined above in “Who can attend the Annual Meeting?” will be permitted to submit questions during the Annual Meeting. Each stockholder is limited to no more than two questions. Questions should be succinct and only cover a single topic. We will not address questions that are, among other things:
| ● | irrelevant to the business of the Company or to the business of the Annual Meeting; | |
| ● | related to material non-public information of the Company, including the status or results of our business since our last Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q; | |
| ● | related to any pending, threatened or ongoing litigation; | |
| ● | related to personal grievances; | |
| ● | derogatory references to individuals or that are otherwise in bad taste; | |
| ● | substantially repetitious of questions already made by another stockholder; | |
| ● | in excess of the two-question limit; | |
| ● | in furtherance of the stockholder’s personal or business interests; or | |
| ● | out of order or not otherwise suitable for the conduct of the Annual Meeting as determined by the Chairperson or Secretary in their reasonable judgment. |
How many votes are required for the approval of the proposals to be voted upon and how will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated?
| Proposal | Votes required | Effect of Votes Withheld / Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes | ||
| Proposal 1: Approval of the Director Election Proposal. | The plurality of the votes cast. This means that the three nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative “FOR” votes will be elected as Class I Directors. | Votes withheld and broker non-votes will have no effect. | ||
| Proposal 2: Approval of the Executive Compensation Proposal. | The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. | Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect. | ||
| Proposal 3: Approval of the Frequency of Executive Compensation Proposal. | We will consider the frequency option (one year, two years or three years) receiving the highest number of votes cast by stockholders to be the frequency that has been recommended by stockholders. | Abstentions and broker-non votes will have no effect. | ||
| Proposal 4: Approval of the 2024 Plan Increase Proposal. | The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively.
|
Abstentions and broker-non votes will have no effect. | ||
| Proposal 5: Approval of the Auditor Reappointment Proposal. | The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. | Abstentions and broker-non votes will have no effect. We do not expect any broker non-votes on this proposal. |
What is a “vote withheld” and an “abstention” and how will votes withheld and abstentions be treated?
A “vote withheld,” in the case of the proposal regarding the election of directors, or an “abstention,” in the case of the proposal regarding Proposal 2 through Proposal 5, represents a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Votes withheld and abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Votes withheld have no effect on the election of directors. Abstentions have no effect on the outcome of voting on Proposal 2 through Proposal 5.
What are broker non-votes and do they count for determining a quorum?
Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker in “street name” for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker (1) has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and (2) lacks discretionary voting power to vote those shares. A broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on routine matters, such as the Auditor Reappointment Proposal, without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares. On the other hand, absent instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on non-routine matters, such as the approval of the Director Election Proposal, Executive Compensation Proposal, Frequency of Executive Compensation Proposal and the 2024 Plan Increase Proposal. Broker non-votes count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.
Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
We plan to announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting, and we will report the final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K, which we intend to file with the SEC after the Annual Meeting.

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON
PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
At the Annual Meeting, three (3) Class I Directors are to be elected, each with a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of the stockholders after his election and his successor is duly elected and qualified.
We currently have eight (8) directors on our Board. The Board has nominated Carlo Papa, Nir Nimrodi and Zeev Vurembrand for election as Class I Directors at the Annual Meeting.
As set forth in our Certificate of Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (our “Articles of Incorporation”), the Board is currently divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following the election. The current class structure is as follows: Class I, whose term will expire at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and, if elected at the Annual Meeting, whose subsequent term will expire at the 2028 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; Class II, whose current term will expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders; and Class III, whose term will expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The current Class I Directors are Carlo Papa, Nir Nimrodi and Zeev Vurembrand; the current Class II Directors are Jackson Schneider, Ronit Rubin and Inbal Kreiss; and the current Class III Directors are Prof. Benad Goldwasser and Moshe (Mori) Arkin.
Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed from time to time by the Board, with such number as provided by our Bylaws being not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10). Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. The division of our Board into three classes with staggered three-year terms may delay or prevent a change of our management or a change in control of our Company. Our directors may be removed only for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote in the election of directors.
If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote the shares of common stock represented thereby for the election as Class I Directors of the persons whose names and biographies appear below. The Board has no reason to believe that Carlo Papa, Nir Nimrodi and Zeev Vurembrand will be unable to serve if elected. Each of Carlo Papa, Nir Nimrodi and Zeev Vurembrand has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected.
Vote required
The proposal regarding the election of each director requires the approval of a plurality of the votes cast for each director. This means that the three nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative “FOR” votes will be elected as Class I Directors.
Votes withheld and broker non-votes are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the election of each of the below
Class I Director nominees.
Nominees For Class I Directors (terms to expire at the 2028 Annual Meeting)
The current members of the Board of Directors who are also nominees for election to the Board of Directors as Class I Directors are as follows:
| Name | Age | Served as a Director Since | Position with Odysight.ai | |||||||
| Carlo Papa | 54 | 2024 | Director | |||||||
| Nir Nimrodi | 56 | 2023 | Director | |||||||
| Zeev Vurembrand | 74 | 2021 | Director | |||||||

PROPOSAL 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview
Pursuant to Schedule 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are asking our stockholders to vote to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our “named executive officers” as disclosed in accordance with the SEC’s rules. This proposal, the “Executive Compensation Proposal”, gives our stockholders the opportunity to weigh in on our named executive officers’ compensation as a whole. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation or any specific named executive officer, but rather the overall compensation of all of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders approve an advisory resolution in favor of the Executive Compensation Proposal. The next advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers will occur in either one year, two years or three years, depending on how stockholders vote on Proposal 3 at the Annual Meeting. The vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on the Company, the compensation committee or the Board of Directors. The voting outcome will, however, provide information to us regarding investor sentiment about our executive compensation philosophy, policies and practices, which the compensation committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation for the remainder of the current fiscal year and beyond. The Board of Directors and the compensation committee value the opinions of our stockholders and to the extent there is any significant vote against our named executive officer compensation as disclosed in this proxy statement, we will consider our stockholders’ concerns and the compensation committee will evaluate whether any actions are necessary to address those concerns.
Details of the Executive Compensation Proposal
For further details on Executive Compensation, please refer to the section “Executive Compensation” provided later in this proxy statement.
Vote Required
This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. This is a non-binding advisory vote; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering the compensation awarded to our named executive officers.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the approval of the compensation of the executive officers named herein.
| 16 |
PROPOSAL 3: DETERMINE FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview
Pursuant to Schedule 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, we are seeking an advisory, non-binding stockholder vote about how often we should present stockholders with the opportunity to vote on compensation awarded to our “named executive officers”. You may elect to have the vote held every year, every two years, or every three years, or you may abstain. We recommend that this advisory vote be held once every three years, but stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove of that recommendation. We believe that a triennial voting frequency will provide our stockholders with sufficient time to evaluate the effectiveness of our overall compensation philosophy, policies and practices in the context of our long-term business results for the corresponding period, while avoiding over-emphasis on short-term variations in compensation and business results. We also believe that a three-year timeframe provides a better opportunity to observe and evaluate the impact of any changes to our executive compensation policies and practices that have occurred since the last advisory vote.
Vote Required
We will consider the frequency option (one year, two years or three years) receiving the highest number of votes cast by stockholders to be the frequency that has been recommended by stockholders. If a majority of the votes cast do not favor one of the three frequencies, the frequency that receives the most votes will be considered to be the frequency favored by stockholders. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. This is a non-binding advisory vote; however, our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when considering the frequency of a stockholder advisory vote regarding the compensation awarded to our named executive officers.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote for 3 YEARS regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.

PROPOSAL 4: APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE 2024 SHARE INCENTIVE PLAN TO INCREASE THE RESERVATION OF COMMON STOCK FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER TO 1,888,263 SHARES FROM 1,111,263 SHARES
Overview
Our 2024 Share Incentive Plan was approved by our board of directors on June 13, 2024. Following adoption of the 2024 Plan, we ceased making awards under our 2020 Share Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”).
As of September 28, 2025, the number of shares of common stock currently reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan is 1,111,263, of which an aggregate of 1,020,500 shares have been granted under the 2024 Plan and 90,763 are currently unissued and available for future issuance under such plan. On September 17, 2025, our compensation committee recommended to the board of directors to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2024 Plan by 777,000 shares to 1,888,263 shares from the current 1,111,263 shares, subject to stockholder approval of the amendment to the 2024 Plan.
In addition to the above, shares of common stock that were subject to awards granted under either the 2020 Plan or the 2024 Plan that have expired or were cancelled or become un-exercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full shall become available for future grant under the 2024 Plan.
Our board of directors deems it advisable and in the best interest of the Company to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2024 Plan by 777,000 shares to 1,888,263 shares from 1,111,263 shares to attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means for directors, officers, managers and employees to acquire and maintain an interest in the Company, which interest may be measured by reference to the value of its common stock.
A copy of the proposed amendment is attached hereto as Appendix A.
Reasons for the Proposed Plan Amendment
We believe that operation of the 2024 Plan is a necessary and powerful tool in attracting and retaining the services of key employees, key contractors and outside directors in a competitive labor market, which is essential to our long-term growth and success. In order to pursue our growth plans, including in the U.S. and Europe, we need to ensure that we can continue to provide appropriate incentives to our current and future employees, contractors and outside directors. We have strived to use our 2024 Plan resources effectively and maintain an appropriate balance between stockholder interests and the ability to recruit and retain valuable employees. However, we believe that there is an insufficient number of shares remaining under our 2024 Plan to meet our projected needs which will impair our ability to both attract and retain key persons going forward.
Accordingly, it is the judgment of our board of directors that increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2024 Plan is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.
Description of Our 2024 Plan
For further details on the 2024 Plan, please refer to the summary under “2024 Share Incentive Plan” in the “Executive Compensation” section provided later in this proxy statement.
Interest of Directors and Executive Officers.
All members of our board of directors and all of our executive officers are eligible for awards under the 2024 Plan and, thus, have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
| 18 |
New Plan Benefits
With respect to the increased number of shares reserved under the 2024 Plan, we cannot currently determine the benefits or number of shares that will be subject to awards that may be granted in the future to eligible participants under the 2024 Plan, which will depend on a number of factors including Company performance and the need to further incentivize employee performance. The grant of awards and terms of such awards are to be determined in the sole discretion of the compensation committee.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
The following table summarizes information about our equity compensation plans and individual compensation arrangements as of December 31, 2024.
| Plan Category | Number of securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and rights (1) | Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options, warrants and rights | Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a)) | |||||||||
| (a) | (b) | (c) | ||||||||||
| Equity compensation plans approved by security holders | 704,500 | 4.80 | 379,984 | |||||||||

| Total | 3,242,653 | 3.77 | 379,984 | |||||||||
Vote Required
This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the amendment to the 2024 Plan to increase the reservation of common stock for issuance thereunder to 1,888,263 shares from 1,111,263 shares.

PROPOSAL 5: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Our audit committee has appointed Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a firm in the Deloitte global network (“Deloitte”), as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Our Board has directed that this appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Although ratification of our appointment of Deloitte is not required, we value the opinions of our stockholders and believe that stockholder ratification of our appointment is a good corporate governance practice.
Deloitte also served as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Neither the accounting firm nor any of its members has any direct or indirect financial interest in or any connection with us in any capacity other than as our auditors, providing audit and non-audit services. A representative of Deloitte is not expected to attend the Annual Meeting and is not expected to have an opportunity to make a statement and be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.
In the event that the appointment of Deloitte is not ratified by the stockholders, the audit committee will consider this fact when it appoints the independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Even if the appointment of Deloitte is ratified, the audit committee retains the discretion to appoint a different independent auditor at any time if it determines that such a change is in the interest of the Company.
The following table summarizes the fees of Deloitte, our independent registered public accounting firm, billed to us for their professional services for each of the last two fiscal years:
| Services | Year Ended December 31, 2024 | Year Ended December 31, 2023 | ||||||
| Audit Fees (1) | $ | 145,000 | $ | 110,000 | ||||
| Tax Fees (2) | 15,000 | - | ||||||
| Total Fees | $ | 160,000 | $ | 110,000 | ||||
| (1) | Audit fees consist of audit and review services, consents and review of documents filed with the SEC. | |
| (2) | Tax fees consist of services related to representing us before the ITA in a VAT assessment. |
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures
The Audit Committee maintains a pre-approval policy that provides guidelines for the audit, audit-related, tax and other permissible non-audit services that may be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm (the independent auditors) in order to ensure that the provision of such services does not impair the auditor’s independence. Under this policy, the Audit Committee annually pre-approves the audit fee and terms of the engagement, as set forth in the engagement letter, along with a specified list of audit-related and tax services. If any service to be provided by the independent auditors has not received pre-approval during this annual process, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee has authorized all auditing and non-auditing services provided by Deloitte during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and the fees paid for such services.
Vote Required
This proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the votes cast affirmatively or negatively. Abstentions are not considered to be votes cast and, accordingly, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. Because brokers have discretionary authority to vote on the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte, we do not expect any broker non-votes in connection with this proposal.
Recommendation of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors unanimously recommends a vote FOR the Ratification of the Appointment of Deloitte as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.
| 20 |
REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Audit Committee has reviewed the audited consolidated financial statements of Odysight.ai Inc. (the “Company”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and has discussed these financial statements with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee has also received from, and discussed with, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm various communications that such independent registered public accounting firm is required to provide to the Audit Committee, including the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm also provided the Audit Committee with a formal written statement required by PCAOB Rule 3526 (Communications with Audit Committees Concerning Independence) describing all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and the Company, including the disclosures required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. In addition, the Audit Committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm its independence from the Company.
Based on its discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, and its review of the representations and information provided by management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the 2024 Annual Report.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
General
Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and charters for our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”), Audit Committee and Compensation Committee to assist the Board of Directors in the exercise of its responsibilities and to serve as a framework for the effective governance of the Company. You can access our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and our current committee charters in the “Corporate Governance” section of the “Investors” page of our website located at www.odysight.ai, or by writing to our Secretary at our offices at Suite 7A, Industrial Park, P.O. Box 3030, Omer, Israel 8496500.
Board Composition
Our Board of Directors currently consists of eight (8) members: Carlo Papa, Nir Nimrodi, Zeev Vurembrand, Jackson Schneider, Ronit Rubin, Inbal Kreiss, Prof. Benad Goldwasser and Moshe (Mori) Arkin. As set forth in our Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors is currently divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following election. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of the Board of Directors, with such number as provided by our Bylaws being not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10). Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. The division of our Board of Directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms may delay or prevent a change of our management or a change in control of our Company. Our directors may be removed only for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors.
Director Independence
Each of the directors on our Board of Directors other than Mr. Papa, Mr. Schneider and Mr. Arkin qualifies as “independent” in accordance with the listing requirements of Nasdaq. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests, including that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, as required by Nasdaq rules, our Board of Directors has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist, which, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors to us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.
Director Candidates
The Nominating Committee is primarily responsible for recommending to the Board nominees for election as director, and the Board is responsible for selecting nominees for election. In identifying director candidates for the Board, the Nominating Committee may solicit current directors and executives of the Company for the names of potentially qualified candidates or ask directors and executives to pursue their own business contacts for the names of potentially qualified candidates. The Nominating Committee may also consult with outside advisors or retain search firms to assist in the search for qualified candidates, or consider director candidates recommended by our stockholders. Once potential candidates are identified, the Nominating Committee reviews the backgrounds and qualifications of those candidates in light of the function and needs of the Board, evaluates candidates’ independence from the Company and potential conflicts of interest and determines if candidates meet the qualifications desired by the Nominating Committee for candidates for election as a director. The Nominating Committee and the Board utilize the same criteria for evaluating candidates regardless of the source of the referral.
Stockholder recommendations of director candidates should be addressed to the Nominating Committee in care of the Secretary, c/o Odysight.ai Inc., Suite 7A, Industrial Park, P.O. Box 3030, Omer, Israel 8496500. In the event there is a vacancy, and assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the Nominating Committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others.
To date, the Nominating Committee has not adopted a formal policy with respect to a fixed set of specific minimum qualifications for its candidates for membership on the Board. Instead, when considering candidates for director, the Nominating Committee will generally consider all of the relevant qualifications of Board members, including such factors such as the candidate’s relevant expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management, having sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Company, demonstrated excellence in his or her field, having relevant financial or accounting expertise, having the ability to exercise sound business judgment, having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of our shareholders and whether the director candidates will be independent for purposes of the Nasdaq listing standards, as well as the current needs of the Board and the Company.
| 23 |
In addition, while it does not have a formal policy on the Board’s diversity, the Nominating Committee will take into account a broad range of diversity considerations when assessing director candidates, including individual backgrounds and skill sets, professional experiences and other factors that contribute to the Board having an appropriate range of expertise, talents, experiences and viewpoints. When considering any candidate or nominee to serve on the Board, the Nominating Committee shall seek to attain diversity and balance among directors of race, gender, geography, thought, viewpoints, backgrounds, skills, experience, and expertise from, among other areas, professional and academic areas relevant to the Company’s area of focus.
Communications from Stockholders
Stockholders who wish to communicate with a member or member(s) of the Board, including a specified Board committee or the independent directors as a group or the full Board may do by the following means:
| Mail: | c/o Secretary | ||
| Chairman of the Board | |||
| Odysight.ai Inc. | |||
Suite 7A, Industrial Park P.O. Box 3030 Omer, Israel 8496500 | |||
| Email: | Info@odysight.ai |
Each communication should specify the applicable addressee or addressees to be contacted as well as the general topic of the communication. Our Secretary will forward such correspondence to the Chairman of the Board, who will initially receive and process communications before forwarding them to the specified addressee(s). The Chairman of the Board generally will not forward to the directors a communication that he determines to be primarily commercial in nature or related to an improper or irrelevant topic, or that requests general information about us. Concerns about questionable accounting or auditing matters or possible violations of the Odysight.ai Code of Business Conduct and Ethics should be reported, respectively, pursuant to the procedures outlined in our Policy for Complaints Regarding Accounting, Internal Accounting Controls or Auditing Matters or the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, both of which are available on the Investors page of the Company’s website under “Corporate Governance”.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our Board encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us.
Our Board does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through our Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of our Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. While our Board has a fiduciary duty to monitor and assess strategic risk exposure, our Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, overseeing cybersecurity risks and assisting the Board in its oversight over enterprise risk management. The Audit committee also approves or disapproves any related person transactions. Our Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. Our Nominating Committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines and manages risks associated with the independence of the Board.

Clawback Policy
Our Board of Directors has adopted an Executive Officer Clawback Policy, or the Clawback Policy, in accordance with the Nasdaq listing standards and Exchange Act Rule 10D-1, which applies to our current and former executive officers. Under the Clawback Policy, we are required to recoup the amount of any Erroneously Awarded Compensation (as defined in the Clawback Policy) on a pre-tax basis within a specified lookback period in the event of any Accounting Restatement (as defined in the Clawback Policy), subject to limited impracticability exception.
Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards
From time to time, we award stock options to our employees, including the named executive officers. Historically, the Company awarded new-hire option grants on or soon after a new hire’s employment start date and periodic annual refresh employee option grants, which refresh grants are typically approved at a meeting of the Compensation Committee and Board. Directors receive option grants on a periodic basis, except that the granting of options to directors with stand-along service agreements with the Company depends on the terms of those service agreements. For additional information on the compensation of our directors, see below under the heading “Director Compensation.”
Under our insider trading policy, our Board or any committee thereof shall consider our possession of material non-public information in connection with the timing of each grant of equity under our equity incentive plans, and determine whether a grant of equity should be delayed or otherwise modified due to the possession of such information at such time. We do not otherwise maintain any written policies on the timing of awards of stock options or other equity awards.
Code of Ethics
We have a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We have posted a current copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our website, www.odysight.ai, in the “Investors” section under “Corporate Governance.” In addition, we intend to post on our website all disclosures that are required by law or the rules of Nasdaq concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
Insider Trading Policy
Anti-Hedging Policy
Our insider trading policy prohibits our directors, officers and employees (including certain family members) and any entities they control from engaging in short sales and transactions in put or call options and other forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts.
Attendance by Members of the Board of Directors at Meetings
There were nine meetings of the Board of Directors during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) all meetings of the Board of Directors and (ii) all meetings of the committees on which the director served during the period in which he or she served as a director. We do not maintain a formal policy regarding director attendance at the Annual Meeting; however, members of our Board of Directors are encouraged to attend. Our directors did not attend last year’s annual meeting, as such meeting was conducted by written consent of stockholders.

The amounts reported in the “Compensation Actually Paid to PEO” and “Average Compensation Actually Paid to Non-PEO NEOs” columns do not reflect the actual compensation paid to or realized by our PEO or our non-PEO NEOs during each applicable year. The calculation of compensation actually paid for purposes of this table includes point-in-time fair values of stock awards and these values will fluctuate based on our stock price and various accounting valuation assumptions.

Narrative Disclosure to Pay Versus Performance Table
Relationship Between Financial Performance Measures
Our executive compensation program reflects a variable pay-for-performance philosophy. While we utilize several performance measures to align executive compensation to performance, all of those measures are not presented in the PVP table. Moreover, we generally seek to incentivize long-term performance and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with CAP (as computed in accordance with SEC rules) for a particular year. In accordance with SEC rules, we are providing the following narrative disclosure regarding the relationships between information presented in the PVP table.
Compensation Actually Paid and Company TSR
During the year ended December 31, 2024, compensation actually paid to our PEO was $2,354,000 and to our non-PEOs was $785,000. Over the same period, the value of an investment of $100 in our common stock on the last trading day of 2024 increased by $62 to $162 during the year ended December 31, 2024.
Compensation Actually Paid and Net Loss
During the year ended December 31, 2024, compensation actually paid to our PEO was $2,354,000 and to our non-PEOs was $785,000. Over the same period, our net loss increased by $2,322,000 during the year ended December 31, 2024 (from a net loss in fiscal 2023 of $9,668,000).

On July 31, 2019, we entered into a consulting agreement with Prof. Goldwasser, whereby Prof. Goldwasser agreed to serve as chairman of our board of directors. Effective retroactively to March 1, 2019, services as chairman under the agreement were provided in consideration for a monthly fee of $10,000 and a grant of options to purchase our common stock representing 5% of the fully diluted share capital of the Company post issuance of the then-next financing round, subject to certain limitations. The options, which will have a six-year term, will vest in eight equal semi-annual installments over a period of four years with an exercise price per share calculated based on a 25% discount on the sale price of the common stock in the then-next fund raising of the Company and accelerated vesting upon closing of a material transaction resulting in change of control of the Company and/or in case Prof. Goldwasser is dismissed not for cause, with other terms and limitations as provided in the consulting agreement.
On March 15, 2020, our board of directors approved a quarterly fee of $4,000 payable to each of our currently serving directors, excluding Prof. Goldwasser. On each of April 9, 2021 and August 12, 2021, our board of directors approved the same terms for directors appointed subsequent to March 15, 2020. On September 17, 2025, the board of directors reaffirmed the existing quarterly fee in the amount of $2,000 payable to a director for each committee on which such director serves, if any, with such fee in addition to any other fees to which such director is entitled as a member of the board of directors or any other committee, except that any current or future member of a Board committee who is compensated pursuant to a separate service agreement with the Company shall not be eligible to receive additional compensation for service on Board committees.
On November 22, 2023, our board of directors approved a separate compensation arrangement with Mr. Schneider, subject to his election as a director, which took place on December 6, 2023. In light of the special role and contributions that Mr. Schneider is expected to make to the operation of the Company, the board of directors approved compensation that includes an annual fee of $80,000, which will be paid on a monthly basis in equal installments, and a recommendation to the board of directors to grant Mr. Schneider options to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price per share equal to $3.00 per share, vesting over a period of three years and such other terms as provided in a Director Service Agreement signed between Mr. Schneider and the Company.
| 32 |
Mr. Schneider’s separate compensation arrangement was amended on August 13, 2025, when the Company entered into a revised Director Appointment and Service Agreement with him. Under the revised agreement, Mr. Schneider’s annual fee for service on the board of directors will increase from $80,000 to $120,000, which will be paid on a monthly basis in equal installments, and the Company will recommend that the board of directors grant Mr. Schneider options to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price per share that will be determined at the sole discretion of the Board and shall be subject to provisions of the applicable equity incentive plan under which the options are granted, and vesting over a period of three years. In addition, the revised agreement provides that Mr. Schneider will receive a one-time commission for initiating or facilitating new commercial agreements between the Company and certain pre-approved third parties (“Eligible Customers”), such as major OEMs. The commission is based on actual net revenue generated from these new agreements (“Qualifying Transactions”) and is structured as follows: 2% commission on net revenue up to $250 million, 1.5% commission on net revenue between $250 million and $400 million, and 1% commission on net revenue exceeding $400 million. The list of Eligible Customers is to be mutually agreed upon and updated quarterly in writing. Commissions are paid within 30 days after the Company receives the applicable net revenue, which is defined as actual revenue received and recognized by the Company, less third-party costs, applicable taxes and any conditional payments until such conditions are satisfied. No commission is payable if a Qualifying Transaction is cancelled, and any previously paid commission must be refunded. “Qualifying Transactions” are defined as new (not follow-on) commercial agreements for Company products, resulting solely from Mr. Schneider’ efforts.
On September 16, 2024, we entered into a director appointment and services agreement with Dr. Papa, who was appointed as a member of our board on the same date, pursuant to which Dr. Papa will receive an annual fee of €30,000 for such service, to be paid in equal quarterly installments, a grant of options to purchase 30,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $4.80 per share, one-third of which will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining amount vesting over the following two years in eight equal quarterly installments, and such other terms as provided in the agreement. The options are subject to acceleration of vesting in the event of a change of control of the Company.
On February 18, 2025, Odysight.ai EU entered into a two-year agreement with Dr. Papa, who will serve as Odysight.ai EU’s president and legal representative, effective as of January 9, 2025. Pursuant to the agreement, Dr. Papa will receive: (i) an annual fee of €120,000 for such service, to be paid in equal monthly installments, (ii) a signing bonus of €20,000, (iii) an entry bonus equal to an amount of €40,000 reflecting Dr. Papa’s prior effort and support in the development of the Italian subsidiary and (iv) such other insurance, termination fees and other benefits as provided in the agreement.
On March 10, 2025, our board of directors, upon recommendation of our compensation committee, approved a one-time cash compensation bonus of $130,000 to Prof. Goldwasser.
From time to time our directors, including those with separate compensation arrangements with the Company as described above, receive periodic grants of equity securities for their service as directors.
Equity Compensation Plans
In February 2020, our board of directors approved the 2020 Share Incentive Plan. The 2020 Plan initially included a pool of 580,890 shares of common stock for grant to our employees, consultants, directors and other service providers. On March 15, 2020, our board of directors approved an increase to the 2020 Plan’s option pool by an additional 64,099 shares of common stock.

These shares are available for future grant to our employees, consultants, directors and other service providers. Shares that were subject to awards granted under either the 2020 Plan or the 2024 Plan that have expired or were cancelled or become un-exercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full shall become available for future grant under the 2024 Plan. In July 2024, our board of directors approved an increase to the 2024 Plan’s option pool by an additional 850,000 shares of common stock. In September 2024, our board of directors approved an increase to the 2024 Plan’s option pool by an additional 777,000 shares of common stock, subject to the approval at the Annual Meeting.

2020 Share Incentive Plan
We have adopted the 2020 Plan, under which we previously granted equity-based incentive awards to attract, motivate, and retain the talent for which we compete. With adoption of the 2024 Share Incentive Plan, described below, we make awards under that plan and have ceased making new awards under the 2020 Plan.
Authorized Shares. The maximum number of shares of common stock which were available for issuance under the 2020 Plan is equal to the sum of 2,824,717 shares.
Administration. Our board of directors, or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, will administer the 2020 Plan. Under the 2020 Plan, the administrator has the authority, subject to applicable law, to interpret the terms of the 2020 Plan and any award agreements or awards granted thereunder, designate recipients of awards, determine and amend the terms of awards, including the exercise price of an option award, the fair market value of a share of common stock, the time and vesting schedule applicable to an award or the method of payment for an award, accelerate or amend the vesting schedule applicable to an award, prescribe the forms of agreement for use under the 2020 Plan, and take all other actions and make all other determinations necessary for the administration of the 2020 Plan.
The administrator also has the authority to amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2020 Plan or terminate the 2020 Plan at any time before the date of expiration of its ten-year term.
| 34 |
Eligibility. The 2020 Plan provides for granting awards under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, in compliance with Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961 (the “Ordinance”), and Section 3(i) of the Ordinance and for awards granted to our United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes, Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and Section 409A of the Code.
Section 102 of the Ordinance allows employees, directors, and officers who are not controlling stockholders and are considered Israeli residents to receive favorable tax treatment for compensation in the form of shares or options. Our non-employee service providers and controlling stockholders may only be granted options under section 3(i) of the Ordinance, which does not provide for similar tax benefits.
Grant. All awards granted pursuant to the 2020 Plan were evidenced by an award agreement, in a form approved, from time to time, by the administrator in its sole discretion. The award agreement was set forth the terms and conditions of the award, including the type of award, number of shares subject to such award, vesting schedule and conditions (including performance goals or measures), and the exercise price, if applicable. Certain awards under the 2020 Plan may constitute or provide for a deferral of compensation, subject to Section 409A of the Code, which may impose additional requirements on the terms and conditions of such awards.
Each award will expire seven years from the date of the grant thereof, unless such shorter term of expiration is otherwise designated by the administrator.
Awards. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), shares of common stock, restricted shares, restricted share units, and other share-based awards.
Options granted under the 2020 Plan to our employees who are U.S. residents may qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or may be non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of a stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying share on the date of grant (or 110% in the case of ISOs granted to certain significant stockholders).
Exercise. An award under the 2020 Plan may be exercised by providing the company with a written or electronic notice of exercise and full payment of the exercise price for such shares underlying the award, if applicable, in such form and method as may be determined by the administrator and permitted by applicable law. An award may not be exercised for a fraction of a share. With regard to tax withholding, exercise price, and purchase price obligations arising in connection with awards under the 2020 Plan, the administrator may, in its discretion, accept cash, provide for net withholding of shares in a cashless exercise mechanism, or direct a securities broker to sell shares and deliver all or a part of the proceeds to us or the trustee.
Transferability. Other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise provided under the 2020 Plan, neither the options nor any right in connection with such options are assignable or transferable.
Termination of Employment. For grantees who terminated their employment with us or any of its affiliates prior to July 5, 2022, all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantees as of the date of termination may be exercised within three months, unless otherwise determined by the administrator. For grantees who terminated their employment with us or any of our affiliates after July 5, 2022, all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantees as of the date of termination may be exercised within three years, unless otherwise determined by the administrator. After such three month or three-year period, as applicable, all such unexercised awards will terminate, and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.
In the event of termination of a grantee’s employment or service with the company or any of its affiliates due to such grantee’s death, permanent disability, or retirement, all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantee as of the date of termination may be exercised by the grantee or the grantee’s legal guardian, estate, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the award by bequest or inheritance, as applicable, within twelve months after such date of termination, unless otherwise provided by the administrator. Any awards which are unvested as of the date of such termination or which are vested but not then exercised within the twelve-month period following such date, will terminate and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.
| 35 |
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if a grantee’s employment or services with the company or any of its affiliates is terminated for “cause” (as defined in the 2020 Plan), all outstanding awards held by such grantee (whether vested or unvested) will terminate on the date of such termination and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.
Transactions. In the event of a share split, reverse share split, share dividend, recapitalization, combination, or reclassification of our shares, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares effected without receipt of consideration by the company (but not including the conversion of any convertible securities of the company), the administrator in its sole discretion shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number of shares related to each outstanding award and to the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan, to the class and kind of shares subject to the 2020 Plan, as well as the exercise price per share of each outstanding award, as applicable, the terms and conditions concerning vesting and exercisability, and the term and duration of outstanding awards, or any other terms that the administrator adjusts in its discretion, or the type or class of security, asset, or right underlying the award (which need not be only that of the Company, and may be that of the surviving corporation or any affiliate thereof or such other entity party to any of the above transactions); provided that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share unless otherwise determined by the administrator. In the event of a distribution of a cash dividend to all stockholders, the administrator may determine, without the consent of any holder of an award, that the exercise price of an outstanding and unexercised award shall be reduced by an amount equal to the per share gross dividend amount distributed by the Company, subject to applicable law.
In the event of a merger or consolidation of our Company, or a sale of all, or substantially all, of our shares or assets, or other transaction having a similar effect on us, or change in the composition of the board of directors, or liquidation or dissolution, or such other transaction or circumstances that the board of directors determines to be a relevant transaction, then without the consent of the grantee, the administrator may but is not required to (i) cause any outstanding award to be assumed or substituted by such successor corporation, or (ii) regardless of whether or not the successor corporation assumes or substitutes the award (a) provide the grantee with the option to exercise the award as to all or part of the shares, and may provide for an acceleration of vesting of unvested awards, or (b) cancel the award and pay in cash, shares of the company, the acquirer, or other corporation which is a party to such transaction, or other property as determined by the administrator as fair in the circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the administrator may upon such event amend, modify, or terminate the terms of any award as it shall deem, in good faith, appropriate.
2024 Share Incentive Plan
We have adopted the 2024 Plan, under which we may grant equity-based incentive awards to attract, motivate, and retain the talent for which we compete.
Authorized Shares. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2024 Plan is 1,111,263 shares, or such number as our board of directors may determine from time to time. Awards granted under either the 2020 Plan or the 2024 Plan that have expired or was cancelled or become un-exercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full, the shares that were subject thereto shall become available for future grant under the 2024. As of September 28, 2025, an aggregate of 1,020,500 shares have been granted under the 2024 Plan and 90,763 shares were available for future awards under the 2024 Plan.
Administration. Our board of directors, or a duly authorized committee of our board of directors, will administer the 2024 Plan. Under the 2024 Plan, the administrator has the authority, subject to applicable law, to interpret the terms of the 2024 Plan and any award agreements or awards granted thereunder, designate recipients of awards, determine and amend the terms of awards, including the exercise price of an option award, the fair market value of a share of common stock, the time and vesting schedule applicable to an award or the method of payment for an award, accelerate or amend the vesting schedule applicable to an award, prescribe the forms of agreement for use under the 2024 Plan, and take all other actions and make all other determinations necessary for the administration of the 2024 Plan.
| 36 |
The administrator also has the authority to amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the 2024 Plan or terminate the 2024 Plan at any time before the date of expiration of its ten-year Eligibility. The 2024 Plan provides for granting awards under various tax regimes, including, without limitation, in compliance with Section 102 of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance (New Version), 5721-1961 (the “Ordinance”), and Section 3(i) of the Ordinance and for awards granted to our United States employees or service providers, including those who are deemed to be residents of the United States for tax purposes, Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and Section 409A of the Code.
Section 102 of the Ordinance allows employees, directors and officers who are not controlling stockholders and are considered Israeli residents to receive favorable tax treatment for compensation in the form of shares or options. Our non-employee service providers and controlling stockholders may only be granted options under section 3(i) of the Ordinance, which does not provide for similar tax benefits.
Grant. All awards granted pursuant to the 2024 Plan will be evidenced by an award agreement, in a form approved, from time to time, by the administrator in its sole discretion. The award agreement will set forth the terms and conditions of the award, including the type of award, number of shares subject to such award, vesting schedule and conditions (including performance goals or measures), and the exercise price, if applicable. Certain awards under the 2024 Plan may constitute or provide for a deferral of compensation, subject to Section 409A of the Code, which may impose additional requirements on the terms and conditions of such awards.
Each award will expire seven years from the date of the grant thereof, unless such shorter term of expiration is otherwise designated by the administrator.
Awards. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), shares of common stock, restricted shares, restricted share units, and other share-based awards.
Options granted under the 2024 Plan to our employees who are U.S. residents may qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or may be non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of a stock option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying share on the date of grant (or 110% in the case of ISOs granted to certain significant stockholders).
Exercise. An award under the 2024 Plan may be exercised by providing the company with a written or electronic notice of exercise and full payment of the exercise price for such shares underlying the award, if applicable, in such form and method as may be determined by the administrator and permitted by applicable law. An award may not be exercised for a fraction of a share. With regard to tax withholding, exercise price, and purchase price obligations arising in connection with awards under the 2024 Plan, the administrator may, in its discretion, accept cash, provide for net withholding of shares in a cashless exercise mechanism, or direct a securities broker to sell shares and deliver all or a part of the proceeds to us or the trustee.
Transferability. Other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise provided under the 2024 Plan, neither the options nor any right in connection with such options are assignable or transferable.
Termination of Employment. In the event of termination of a grantee’s employment or service with the company or any of its affiliates (other than by reason of death, disability, or retirement), all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantees as of the date of termination may be exercised within three months after such date of termination, unless otherwise determined by the administrator. After such three months period, all such unexercised awards will terminate, and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
| 37 |
In the event of termination of a grantee’s employment or service with the company or any of its affiliates due to such grantee’s death, permanent disability, all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantee as of the date of termination may be exercised by the grantee or the grantee’s legal guardian, estate, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the award by bequest or inheritance, as applicable, within one year after such date of termination, unless otherwise provided by the administrator. Any awards which are unvested as of the date of such termination or which are vested but not then exercised within the twelve-month period following such date, will terminate and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
In the event of termination of a grantee’s employment or service with the company or any of its affiliates due to such grantee’s retirement, all vested and exercisable awards held by such grantee at the time of such retirement may be exercised by the grantee within three months after the date of such retirement, unless otherwise provided by the administrator. Any awards which are unvested as of the date of such termination or which are vested but not then exercised within the three months period following such date, will terminate and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if a grantee’s employment or services with the company or any of its affiliates is terminated for “Cause” (as defined in the 2024 Plan), all outstanding awards held by such grantee (whether vested or unvested) will terminate on the date of such termination and the shares covered by such awards shall again be available for issuance under the 2024 Plan.
Transactions. In the event of a share split, reverse share split, share dividend, recapitalization, combination, or reclassification of our shares, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares effected without receipt of consideration by the company (but not including the conversion of any convertible securities of the company), the administrator in its sole discretion shall make an appropriate adjustment in the number of shares related to each outstanding award and to the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan, to the class and kind of shares subject to the 2024 Plan, as well as the exercise price per share of each outstanding award, as applicable, the terms and conditions concerning vesting and exercisability, and the term and duration of outstanding awards, or any other terms that the administrator adjusts in its discretion, or the type or class of security, asset, or right underlying the award (which need not be only that of the Company, and may be that of the surviving corporation or any affiliate thereof or such other entity party to any of the above transactions); provided that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share unless otherwise determined by the administrator. In the event of a distribution of a cash dividend to all stockholders, the administrator may determine, without the consent of any holder of an award, that the exercise price of an outstanding and unexercised award shall be reduced by an amount equal to the per share gross dividend amount distributed by us, subject to applicable law.
In the event of a merger or consolidation of our Company, or a sale of all, or substantially all, of our shares or assets, or other transaction having a similar effect on the Company, or liquidation or dissolution, or such other transaction or circumstances that the board of directors determines to be a relevant transaction, then without the consent of the grantee, the administrator may but is not required to (i) cause any outstanding award to be assumed or substituted by such successor corporation, or (ii) regardless of whether or not the successor corporation assumes or substitutes the award (a) provide the grantee with the option to exercise the award as to all or part of the shares, and may provide for an acceleration of vesting of unvested awards, or (b) cancel the award and pay in cash, shares of the company, the acquirer, or other corporation which is a party to such transaction, or other property as determined by the administrator as fair in the circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the administrator may upon such event amend, modify, or terminate the terms of any award as it shall deem, in good faith, appropriate.

On August 13, 2025, the Company entered into a revised Director Appointment and Service Agreement with Jackson Schneider. Under the revised agreement, Mr. Schneider’s annual fee for service on the board of directors will increase from $80,000 to $120,000, which will be paid on a monthly basis in equal installments, and the Company will recommend that the board of directors grant Mr. Schneider options to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price per share that will be determined at the sole discretion of the Board and shall be subject to provisions of the applicable equity incentive plan under which the options are granted, and vesting over a period of three years. In addition, the revised agreement provides that Mr. Schneider will receive a one-time commission for initiating or facilitating new commercial agreements between the Company and certain pre-approved third parties (“Eligible Customers”), such as major OEMs. The commission is based on actual net revenue generated from these new agreements (“Qualifying Transactions”) and is structured as follows: 2% commission on net revenue up to $250 million, 1.5% commission on net revenue between $250 million and $400 million, and 1% commission on net revenue exceeding $400 million.

Commissions are paid within 30 days after the Company receives the applicable net revenue, which is defined as actual revenue received and recognized by the Company, less third-party costs, applicable taxes and any conditional payments until such conditions are satisfied. No commission is payable if a Qualifying Transaction is cancelled, and any previously paid commission must be refunded. “Qualifying Transactions” are defined as new (not follow-on) commercial agreements for Company products, resulting solely from Mr. Schneider’ efforts.
