CONTENTS

In compliance with the Companies Law, 5759-1999 of the State of Israel and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Companies Law”), Stratasys Ltd. (“Stratasys” or the “Company”) hereby notifies its shareholders that it will hold its 2019 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) on Tuesday, December 31, 2019 at 11:30 a.m., Israel time, at the offices of Meitar Liquornik Geva Leshem Tal, 16 Abba Hillel Road, 10th floor, Ramat Gan 5250608, Israel. The record date for the determination of the holders of Stratasys’ ordinary shares, nominal value New Israeli Shekels 0.01 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), entitled to vote at the Meeting is Monday, November 25, 2019.

At the Meeting, Stratasys’ shareholders will be asked to vote on the following:

1. Re-election of each of Elchanan Jaglom, S. Scott Crump, Victor Leventhal, John J. McEleney, Dov Ofer, Ziva Patir, David Reis, Yair Seroussi and Adina Shorr to serve as a director of the Company until the Company’s next annual general meeting of shareholders and until the due election and qualification of his or her successor, or until his or her earlier resignation, replacement or removal.

2. Approval of a performance-based equity grant of 10,000 restricted share units (RSUs) and a cash payment of $200,000, to be paid in equal monthly installments during 2020, for each of Messrs. David Reis (the Vice Chairman of the Board and an Executive Director) and Dov Ofer (a director) in respect of the continuing, additional services being provided by them on the oversight committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

3. Approval of a $150,000 cash bonus for Mr. S. Scott Crump, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Board and Chief Innovation Officer, in respect of (i) his services during the year ended December 31, 2018 and (ii) the continuing, additional services being provided by him on the oversight committee of the Board.

4. Reappointment of Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as the Company’s independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2019 and until the Company’s next annual general meeting of shareholders, and authorization of our Board, upon recommendation of the audit committee of the Board, to fix their remuneration.

In addition to the foregoing proposals, at the Meeting, the audited, consolidated financial statements of Stratasys for the annual period ended December 31, 2018 will be presented to, and considered by, Stratasys’ shareholders. The shareholders will furthermore transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof.

The Board unanimously recommends that Stratasys’ shareholders vote in favor of each of the above proposals.

The presence in person or by proxy of two or more shareholders possessing at least 25% of Stratasys’ voting rights will constitute a quorum at the Meeting. In the absence of a quorum within 30 minutes of the scheduled time for the Meeting, the Meeting will be adjourned for one week and will be held on Tuesday, January 7, 2020 at the same time and place. At such adjourned meeting, the presence of at least two shareholders in person or by proxy (regardless of the voting power possessed by their shares) will constitute a quorum. The vote of all of Stratasys’ shareholders is important regardless of whether they attend the Meeting. Accordingly, the Company asks all shareholders to participate and vote regardless of the number of ordinary shares they own.

Approval of each proposed action above requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting on the proposal (excluding abstentions).


Stratasys will soon provide to its shareholders a proxy statement describing, in detail, additional logistical information related to the Meeting, the proposals to be voted upon at the Meeting, the procedure for voting in person or by proxy at the Meeting and various other information related to the Meeting. The Company will also furnish copies of the proxy statement and a related proxy card to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in a Report of Foreign Private Issuer on Form 6-K, which may be obtained for free from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or the Company’s website at www.stratasys.com, or by directing such request to Yonah Lloyd, the Company’s Vice President of Investor Relations, at Yonah.Lloyd@stratasys.com. The full text of the proposed resolutions for each proposal, together with the form of proxy for the Meeting, may also be viewed beginning on Sunday, December 1, 2019, at the registered office of the Company, 1 Holtzman Street, Science Park, Rehovot, Israel, from Sunday to Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Israel time). The telephone number at the Company’s registered office is +972-74-745-4300.

Shareholders of record who are unable to attend the Meeting in person will be requested to complete, date and sign a proxy card and return it promptly in the pre-addressed envelope that will be provided. In order to be counted towards the tally of votes at the Meeting, a proxy card must be received at the Company’s registered office not later than 7:30 a.m., Israel time, on the Meeting date. Shareholders who attend the Meeting in person may revoke their proxies and vote their Ordinary Shares at the Meeting.

If your Ordinary Shares in the Company are held in “street name” (meaning held through a bank, broker or other nominee), you will be able to direct the record holder of your shares on how to vote your shares by completing and submitting a voting instruction form (including online at www.proxyvote.com). If you wish to attend the Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the record holder to enable you to participate in and to vote your shares at the Meeting (or to appoint a proxy to do so). If mailing in your voting instruction form to Broadridge in the pre-addressed envelope that will be provided, your vote must be received by 11:59 a.m. Eastern time on Monday, December 30, 2019 to be validly included in the tally of Ordinary Shares voted at the Meeting. An earlier deadline may apply if you provide voting instructions online or via telephone.

A press release announcing the calling of the Meeting is annexed hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
