a ballot, which will be available at the Special Meeting. If you hold ADSs (whether registered in your name or in “street name”)

of such share, and furthermore, pursuant to Article 32(d) of the Articles of Association of the Company, the vote of the joint holder
who is named first in the Company’s Shareholder Register, in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s)

| RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS |
Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR each
of the proposals set forth in this Proxy Statement.
| VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL OF EACH PROPOSAL |
The affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of the voting power represented and voting in person or by proxy is required to approve each of the proposals
set forth in this Proxy Statement.
General
A form of proxy for use at the Special Meeting
and a return envelope for the proxy are enclosed. Shareholders may revoke the authority granted by their execution of proxies before the
effective exercise thereof by filing with the Company a written notice of revocation or duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by
voting in person at the Special Meeting. However, if a shareholder attends the Special Meeting and does not elect to vote in person, his
or her proxy will not be revoked. Unless otherwise indicated on the form of proxy, if a proxy is properly executed and received by the
Company prior to the Special Meeting, Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in favor of all the matters to be presented to the
Special Meeting, as described above. If a shareholder makes a specification on the form of proxy, the Shares represented thereby will
be voted in accordance with such specification. On all matters considered at the Special Meeting, abstentions of a holder of Shares will
be treated as neither a vote “for” nor a vote “against” the matter, although they will be counted in determining
if a quorum is present.
Under the terms of the Deposit Agreement among the
Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, or the Depositary, and the holders of the ADSs, the Depositary shall endeavor (to the extent
practicable and in accordance with applicable law and our Articles of Association) 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 the Depositary. If no instructions are received by the
Depositary from a holder of ADSs on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the Depositary will not exercise
any discretion in voting the Shares.
The Company shall bear the cost of the solicitation
of the proxies, including postage, printing and handling and shall reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for
forwarding material to beneficial owners of ordinary shares or ADSs.
Shareholder Proposals
Any shareholder of the
Company who intends to present a proposal at the Special Meeting must satisfy the requirements of the Companies Law and our Articles of
Association. Under the Companies Law, any shareholder who holds at least one percent (1%) of the Company’s outstanding voting rights
is entitled to request that the Board include a proposal to be voted on by the Company’s shareholders, provided that such proposal
is appropriate for consideration by shareholders at the Special Meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under the Israeli Companies Regulations
(Relief for Companies with Securities Listed for Trading on a Foreign Stock Exchange), only shareholders holding at least five percent
(5%) of the Company’s outstanding voting rights are entitled to request that the Board include a proposal at the Special Meeting
related to the election or removal of a director from the Board. Such shareholders may present proposals for consideration at the Special
Meeting by submitting their proposals in writing to our Company Secretary (Email: corpsec@steakholderfoods.com). For a shareholder proposal
to be considered for inclusion in the Special Meeting, our Company Secretary must receive the written proposal no later than August 18,
2026.
If applicable, a revised
agenda will be published by way of issuing a press release or furnishing a Form 6-K with the SEC.
The wording of the resolutions
to be voted at the Special Meeting and relevant documents thereto may be inspected at the Company’s offices during normal business
hours and by prior coordination with the Company Secretary (Tel: +972-8-974-0000).
We are subject to the
information reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), applicable to
foreign private issuers. We fulfill these requirements by filing reports with the SEC. Our filings are available to the public on the
SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
As a foreign private
issuer, we are exempt from the rules under the Exchange Act related to the furnishing and content of proxy statements. The circulation
of this notice and proxy statement should not be taken as an admission that we are subject to the proxy rules under the Exchange Act.
| RECORD DATE; QUORUM; VOTING RIGHTS |
Only shareholders of record at the close of business
on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting and any adjournments or postponements
thereof. As of August 5, 2026, we had 12,173,080,659 issued and outstanding ordinary shares, represented by or representable by 1,014,423
ADSs.
The quorum required at
the Special Meeting consists of at least two shareholders present in person or represented by proxy, within half an hour from the time
appointed for holding the meeting, who hold or represent, in the aggregate, at least 25% of our voting rights. If the Special Meeting
is adjourned for lack of a quorum, it will be adjourned to Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. Israel time, or to a different
date, as shall be determined by our Board of Directors in a notice to shareholders. If, at such adjourned meeting, a quorum is not present

of our Annual Report on Form 20-F, filed on April 30, 2026.
INCREASE OF AUTHORIZED CAPITAL
Background
On July 31, 2026, the Company entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”) in a private
placement financing transaction (“July 2026 Private Placement”). Pursuant to the financing, the Company issued pre-funded
warrants to purchase up (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to 1,750,000 ADSs and accompanying series E warrants
(“Series E Warrants”) and series F warrants (“Series F Warrants,” together with the Series E Warrants, the “Ordinary
Warrants”), each exercisable for up to 1,750,000 ADSs, at a combined purchase price of $1.99 per Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying warrants.
The financing closed on August 3, 2026 and generated gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $3.5 million, before placement
agent fees and offering expenses.
The ADSs underlying the securities issued in the
financing represent a substantial number of the Company’s ordinary shares. While the Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable,
the Series E Warrants and Series F Warrants may not be exercised unless and until the shareholders of the Company approve an increase
in the Company’s authorized share capital sufficient to permit the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs issuable
upon exercise of such warrants.
Specifically, under the terms of the Series E
Warrants and Series F Warrants, the warrants become exercisable only upon the date on which the Company’s shareholders approve the
increase in the Company’s authorized ordinary share capital (the “Authorized Share Increase Date”). The Series E Warrants
have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS and expire 18 months following the later of the effectiveness of the related resale
registration statement and the Authorized Share Increase Date. The Series F Warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS and expire
five years following the later of the effectiveness of the related resale registration statement and the Authorized Share Increase Date.
The Company’s authorized share capital is
currently 50,000,000,000 ordinary shares, no par value, equivalent to 4,166,667 ADSs. As of August 5, 2026, we had 12,173,080,659 issued
and outstanding ordinary shares, represented by or representable by 1,014,423 ADSs. In addition, as of August 5, 2026, the Company had
outstanding warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 72,849,119,160 ordinary shares, equivalent to 6,070,760 ADSs (which includes the
Series E Warrants and Series F Warrants, which will only become exercisable on the Authorized Share Increase Date if our shareholders
approve the increase in our authorized ordinary share capital), outstanding options and restricted share units covering an aggregate of
79,139,770 ordinary shares, equivalent to 6,595 ADSs, and 216,397,832 ordinary shares, equivalent to 18,033 ADSs, reserved for future
issuance under the Steakholder Foods Ltd. 2022 Share Incentive Plan.
The Board approved the financing with the expectation
that the Company would subsequently seek shareholder approval of an increase in its authorized share capital. The purpose of
this proposal is to initially provide the Company with a sufficient number of authorized but unissued ordinary shares to permit the
exercise of the outstanding warrants issued in the financing and to satisfy the Company’s obligations under the transaction documents entered
into in connection therewith.
The Board believes that approval of this proposal
is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders because it will provide the Company with the authorized share capacity necessary
to fulfill its contractual obligations, preserve the economic benefits of the financing transaction and enable the Company to receive
additional capital if the warrants are exercised for cash.
The Board believes that the limited amount of
remaining authorized share capital does not provide the Company with sufficient flexibility for its future financial and capital requirements
or for the pursuit of other potential business opportunities. To take advantage of favorable market conditions or to pursue such other
opportunities, the Board recommends that the Company increase the number of ordinary shares it is authorized to issue by 999,950,000,000,000,
from 50,000,000,000 ordinary shares to 1,000,000,000,000,000 ordinary shares. This increase would be effected through the adoption of
an amendment to Article 5(a) of the Company’s Articles of Association, which sets forth the Company’s authorized share capital.
Adoption of such an amendment to our Articles
of Association would not have any immediate dilutive effect on the proportionate voting power or other rights of our existing shareholders.
Upon issuance, the additional authorized ordinary shares would have rights identical to the currently outstanding ordinary shares.
Although our Board does not consider it to be
an antitakeover proposal, if the proposed amendment to our Articles of Association is adopted, that would enable the Board to issue additional
ordinary shares in a manner used to discourage hostile takeover attempts of the Company. Among other things, the additional shares could
be privately placed, thereby diluting the share ownership of persons seeking to obtain control of the Company, or the Board could (to
the extent legally permitted under Israeli law) adopt a shareholders’ rights plan that would provide for the issuance of additional
ordinary shares in the event of certain purchases not approved by the Board.
The following is the full text of the proposed
amendment to Article 5(a) of our Articles of Association increasing our authorized share capital and the number of ordinary shares that
we may issue, as adopted by our Board and recommended for adoption by our shareholders at the Meeting (proposed new text is underlined
and text proposed to be deleted is struck-through):
“5(a) The authorized share capital of the Company
shall consist of 50,000,000,0001,000,000,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares without par value (the “Shares”)”.
If the proposed amendment to Article 5(a) of our
Articles of Association is adopted, we intend to use the additional ordinary shares that would become available as a result of the increase
in our authorized share capital to initially issue ordinary shares, represented by ADSs, to holders of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the
Ordinary Warrants (Series E Warrants and Series F Warrants), in each case issued in connection with the July 2026 Private Placement, upon
exercise thereof.
Consequences if the Proposal Is Not Approved
If this proposal is not approved by the shareholders,
the Company will not have sufficient authorized share capital to permit the exercise of the Series E Warrants and Series F Warrants
issued in the financing. As a result, the holders of such warrants may be unable to exercise their warrants in accordance with their terms, and
the Company may be unable to fully satisfy its obligations under the transaction documents governing the financing.
In addition, if shareholders do not approve this
proposal:
| ● | the
Company may be unable to receive up to approximately $7.0 million of potential additional gross
proceeds from the cash exercise of the Series E Warrants and Series F Warrants (assuming
full exercise of the warrants for cash at the exercise price of $2.00 per ADS); |
| ● | the
Company could be required to negotiate alternative arrangements with the holders
of the warrants, which may be unfavorable to the Company and its shareholders; |
| ● | the
Company could become subject to claims, disputes, liabilities, penalties or other
remedies that may be available under the financing documents or applicable law; |
| ● | the
Company’s relationship with the investor that participated in the financing
may be adversely affected; |
| ● | the
Company may need to seek additional financing from other sources, which may not
be available on acceptable terms or at all; and |
| ● | the Company’s
financial flexibility and ability to pursue its business plan could be adversely
impacted. |
Proposed Resolution
It is proposed that the following resolution be
adopted at the Special Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that an increase to the
authorized share capital of the Company by 999,950,000,000,000, ordinary shares, no par value, such that the Company’s authorized
share capital shall be 1,000,000,000,000,000 ordinary shares, no par value each, to be implemented via the adoption of an amendment to
Article 5(a) of the Company’s Articles of Association of the Company in the form set forth in the Company’s Notice of 2026
Special General Meeting of Shareholders, be, and hereby is, approved in all respects.”
Required Vote

Proposal” above.
The Board recommends a vote FOR approval of
the foregoing proposed resolution.
ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES UNDERLYING PRE-FUNDED
WARRANTS IN JULY 2026 PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Background
On July 31, 2026, we entered
into the Securities Purchase Agreement with one accredited investor, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell to the Investor, in
a private placement: (i) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs (each ADS representing 12,000 ordinary shares, no par value),
(ii) Series E Warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs, and (iii) Series F Warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs. The closing of
the July 2026 Private Placement occurred on August 3, 2026.
The Pre-Funded Warrants have
an exercise price of $0.01 per ADS, are immediately exercisable upon issuance, and have no expiration date until exercised in full. The
Series E Warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS, are exercisable on or after the Authorized Share Increase Date (as defined
below), and expire 18 months after the later of the Effective Date (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) and the Authorized
Share Increase Date. The Series F Warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per ADS, are exercisable on or after the Authorized Share Increase
Date, and expire five years after the later of the Effective Date and the Authorized Share Increase Date. The combined purchase price
for each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Ordinary Warrants was $1.99.
The gross proceeds from the
July 2026 Private Placement were approximately $3.5 million. We engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC as placement agent (the “Placement
Agent”) for the July 2026 Private Placement and agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 7.5% of the gross proceeds,
a non-accountable expense allowance of $25,000, and up to $50,000 for legal fees. In addition, we agreed to issue to the Placement Agent
(or its designees) warrants to purchase up to 122,500 ADSs (representing 7.0% of the Pre-Funded Warrants placed) on substantially the
same terms as the Series F Warrants, except with an exercise price of $2.50 per ADS (the “Placement Agent Warrants”).
Concurrently with the Securities
Purchase Agreement, we also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated July 31, 2026, with the Investor, pursuant to which we
agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the ordinary shares (represented by ADSs) issuable upon
exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants and the Ordinary Warrants.
The “Authorized Share
Increase Date” means the date on which shareholders of the Company approve an increase in the Company’s authorized ordinary
shares sufficient to permit the exercise of the Ordinary Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants.
Discussion and Reasons for the Proposal
The July 2026 Private Placement
provided the Company with capital to support its ongoing operations and strategic initiatives. The Pre-Funded Warrants were issued in
lieu of ordinary shares (represented by ADSs) in order to comply with applicable Israeli corporate law, securities laws and exchange rules
governing private placements. By seeking shareholder approval for the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants,
the Company intends to permit the conversion of such Pre-Funded Warrants into ordinary shares (represented by ADSs).
If shareholder approval for
the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants is not obtained, the Pre-Funded Warrants will remain outstanding
and exercisable in accordance with their terms, and the transaction structure will otherwise remain unchanged.
Statutory Background
If the Pre-Funded Warrants
are exercised in full, the Investor would acquire 1,750,000 ADSs (representing 21,000,000,000 ordinary shares), potentially resulting
in the Investor becoming a “controlling shareholder” of the Company under the Companies Law. Section 270(5) of the Companies
Law requires shareholder approval for private placements in a public company in certain circumstances. Section 270(5)(a)(1) applies where
a private placement involves the issuance of 20% or more of the voting rights and certain dilution and consideration thresholds are met;
this provision does not apply here, as the consideration is in cash and on market terms. Section 270(5)(a)(2) applies where the offeree
may become a controlling shareholder as a result of the private placement. Because the Investor may become a controlling shareholder upon
exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants, shareholder approval is required under Sections 270(5)(a)(2) and 274 of the Companies Law. For purposes
of Section 270(5), convertible securities such as the Pre-Funded Warrants are calculated on an as-exercised basis.
Proposal
The shareholders are being
asked to approve the issuance of all ordinary shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants (i.e., the ordinary shares represented by ADSs
issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants).
It is proposed that the following
resolution be adopted at the Meeting:
“RESOLVED, to
approve the issuance of ordinary shares, represented by ADSs, underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,750,000 ADSs (each
ADS representing 12,000 ordinary shares, no par value) issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 31, 2026, upon
exercise thereof.”
Vote Required
See “Vote Required
for Approval of Each Proposal” above.
Board Recommendation
The Board unanimously recommends
a vote “FOR” the approval of the issuance of ordinary shares, represented by ADSs, underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase
up to 1,750,000 ADSs issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 31, 2026.
The Board currently knows of no other business
to be transacted at the Special Meeting, other than as set forth in the Notice of Special General Meeting of Shareholders; but, if any
other matter is properly presented at the Special Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote upon such matters
in accordance with their best judgment.
