Notes to the Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting

1. Under the Israeli Companies Law of 1999, an external director is an independent public director which Israeli publicly listed companies are obligated to appoint to its Board. Each public company must have at least two such external directors on its Board and their appointment is by the shareholders for a defined term of three years. For Ms. Yael Mittelman and Mr. Amir Adibi's credentials and resume, see Part 1 of the Appendix to this Notice. Pursuant to section 239 of the Israeli Companies Law, nominees for external directors must be appointed by a special vote of the shareholders' meeting which complies with one of the following conditions: (a) the majority vote in favour of the nominee shall comprise a majority of all the shareholders which were present (in person or by proxy) at the vote who are not a controlling party or having a personal interest in the appointment (and the votes of those abstaining will not be counted); or (b) the aggregate number of those voting against the nominee shall not exceed two percent of the aggregate voting rights in the company. 

2. The required majority for the grant of exemption and indemnification letters to the above-referenced nominees in Sections 1 - 2 and their inclusion in the Company's current directors' and officers' insurance policy, pursuant to section 267A(b) of the Israeli Companies Law requires a special vote of the shareholders' meeting which complies with one of the following conditions: (a) the majority vote in favour of the nominee shall comprise a majority of all the shareholders which were present (in person or by proxy) at the vote who are not a controlling party of having a personal interest in approving the Company's compensation policy (and the votes of those abstaining will not be counted); or b) the aggregate number of those voting against the approval of the resolution shall not exceed two percent of the aggregate voting rights in the Company. 

3. Only those members on the Company's register of members at:

3.1 Close of business on March 31, 2016; or

3.2 If this Meeting is adjourned at 6.00pm Israel time, on the day two days prior to the adjourned meeting.

shall be entitled to attend and vote at the Meeting.

4. Information regarding the Meeting is available at www.trendit.net.

5. If you are a member of the Company at the time set out in Note 3 above, you are entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, speak and vote at the meeting. A proxy need not be a member of the Company but must attend the Meeting to represent you. Details of how to appoint the Chairman of the Meeting or another person as your proxy are set out in the Notes to the proxy form below. In order to be valid, proxy forms must be lodged at the registered office of the Company in Israel marked for the attention of the CFO not less than 48 hours prior to the Meeting.  A Form of Proxy appears on the following page.  In the case of a member which is a corporation, the proxy (or any related document) should be given under its common seal or under the hand of an officer or attorney duly authorised in writing. Any power of attorney or any other authority under which the proxy form is signed (or a duly certified copy of such party or authority) must be included with the proxy form.

6. In the case of joint holders, where more than one of the joint holders purports to appoint a proxy, only the appointment submitted by the most senior holder will be accepted. Seniority is determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in the Company's register of members in respect of the joint holding (the first-named being the most senior).

7. To change your proxy instructions, simply submit a new proxy appointment using the methods set out above. Note that the cut-off time for receipt of proxy appointments (see above) also apply in relation to amended instructions; any amended proxy appointment received after the relevant cut-off time will be disregarded.

If you submit more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.

In order to revoke a proxy instruction, you will need to inform the Company by sending a hard copy notice clearly stating your intention to revoke your proxy appointment to the CFO of the Company at the Company's registered office. The revocation notice must be received by the CFO not less than 48 hours prior to the Meeting.

8. A vote withheld is not a vote in law, which means that the vote will not be counted in the calculation of votes for or against the resolution. If no voting indication is given, your proxy will vote at his or her discretion. Your proxy will vote as he or she thinks fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the Meeting.

9. In the case of holders of depositary interests representing shares in the Company, a Form of Direction must be completed in order to direct the Custodian "Computershare Company Nominees Limited" to vote on the holder's behalf at the Meeting (in person or by proxy) or, if the Meeting is adjourned, at the adjourned meeting. In order to be effective, a completed and signed Form of Direction (and any power of attorney or other authority under which it is signed) must be delivered to the office of the Company's Depositary, Computershare Investor Services PLC, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY, United Kingdom no later than 72 hours before the time fixed for the Meeting or any adjourned meeting. A Form of Direction appears on the penultimate page of this notice.

10. Appointment of a proxy does not preclude you from attending the meeting and voting in person. If you have appointed a proxy and attend the Meeting in person, your proxy appointment will automatically be terminated.

11. The Company will answer any question you ask relating to the business being dealt with at the Meeting unless:

11.1 answering the question would interfere unduly with the preparation for the Meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information;

11.2 the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or

11.3 it is undesirable in the interest of the Company or the good order of the Meeting that the question be answered.

12. As at 11.00 am on February 29, 2016, the Company's issued share capital comprised 347,875,006 ordinary shares at 0.1 NIS each. Each ordinary share carries the right to one vote at a general meeting of the Company and, therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company as at 11.00 am on February 29, 2016 is 347,875,006.

13. If you do not have a proxy form or Form of Direction and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional forms, please contact Computershare Investor Services PLC.

14. You may not use any electronic address provided either:

14.1 in this notice of EGM; or

14.2 any related documents (including the chairman's letter and proxy form)

to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.
