If your shares are held in “street name” (i.e., through a broker or other nominee), please follow the instructions on your voting instruction form in order to submit it to your broker or nominee. If your shares are registered with a member of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd.

PROXY STATEMENT

This Proxy Statement is provided to the holders of ordinary shares, nominal value 1.00 New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) per share (the “Shares”), of Elbit Systems Ltd. (the “Company” or "Elbit Systems"), in connection with the solicitation by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) of proxies for use at the Company’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders to be held at the Company’s offices at the Advanced Technology Center, Haifa, Israel, on Thursday, September 19, 2024, at 2:00 p.m., Israel time (the “Meeting”), or at any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting, as specified in the accompanying Notice of the Company’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders.

It is proposed that at the Meeting the shareholders adopt resolutions for the following proposals (each referred to as a “Proposal” and, collectively, as the “Proposals”):

1.to elect to the Board the following seven members (“Directors”) who are not “External Directors” as defined in the Israeli Companies Law 5759-1999, to serve until the close of the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders: Mr. David Federmann, Mr. Ehud (Udi) Adam, Mrs. Rina Baum, Mr. Michael Federmann, Mrs. Tzipi Livni, Mr. Dov Ninveh and Prof. Ehood (Udi) Nisan;

In addition, at the Meeting the Company will report on or discuss certain additional matters as noted below under “ADDITIONAL MATTERS TO BE REPORTED ON OR DISCUSSED.”

Shares represented by properly signed and unrevoked proxies will be voted in the manner directed by the persons designated as proxies.

Note that exchange rates used in this Proxy Statement to convert NIS to dollar amounts are based on the rate of one dollar to 3.79 NIS as of August 1, 2024. This exchange rate may change from time to time. Exchange rates relating to financial data in prior periods are as provided in the Company’s relevant financial reports.

QUORUM AND VOTING REQUIREMENTS

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on Tuesday, August 20, 2024 (the “Record Date”) have the right to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the Meeting. Mailing of this Proxy Statement and the accompanying materials will commence on or about Wednesday, August 21, 2024.

On August 1, 2024, the Company had forty-four million four hundred seventy-six thousand eight hundred and forty (44,476,840) Shares outstanding. Each Share is entitled to one vote on each of the matters presented to our shareholders at the Meeting.

The Meeting will be properly convened with a quorum if at least two (2) shareholders are present in person, by proxy or by a voting instrument, holding or representing, in the aggregate, at least one-third (1/3) of the issued voting Shares. If a quorum is not present within one-half (1/2) hour after the time set for the Meeting, the Meeting will be adjourned and will be reconvened one (1) week later at the same time and place unless other notice is given to the shareholders by the Board. If at such adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within one-half (1/2) hour of the time for the adjourned meeting, then any two (2) shareholders who together represent at least ten percent (10%) of the shareholders’ voting power, present in person, by proxy or by a voting instrument, will be considered a quorum.

Joint holders of Shares should note that, according to the Company’s Articles of Association, the vote, whether in person, by proxy or by a voting instrument, of the senior of the joint holders of any voted Share will be accepted over any vote(s) of the other joint holders of that Share. For this purpose, seniority will be determined by the order in which the joint holders’ names appear in the Company’s Register of Shareholders.

The approval of each of Proposals 1 and 4 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power in the Company present at the Meeting either in person, by proxy or by a voting instrument, and voting on such Proposal.

The approval of each of Proposals 2 and 3 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power in the Company present at the Meeting either in person, by proxy or by a voting instrument, and voting on the Proposal, provided that either: (i) such majority includes a majority of the Shares voted at the Meeting by shareholders who are not Controlling Shareholders (as defined below) and do not have a Personal Interest (as defined below) in the approval of the Proposal, disregarding abstentions; or (ii) the total number of Shares voted against the approval of the Proposal by shareholders referred to in sub-section (i) does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.

Under the Companies Law 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law"), “Personal Interest” means a shareholder’s personal interest in an act or a transaction of a company, including the personal interest of his or her Relatives (as defined below) or of an entity in which such shareholder or his or her Relative is an Interested Party (as defined below). Personal Interest excludes a personal interest arising solely from holding a company’s shares and includes a Personal Interest of any person voting pursuant to a proxy provided to him or her by another person with respect to the proposal, even if the person providing the proxy does not have a Personal Interest. The vote of a person who is voting by a proxy provided to him or her on behalf of another who has a Personal Interest will also be seen as a vote of a person with a Personal Interest, whether the discretion to vote is in the hands of the voter or not.

“Relative” means a person’s (a) brother, sister, parent, grandparent or descendant, (b) spouse, or (c) the spouse’s brother, sister, parent or descendant (or in each case the spouse thereof).

“Interested Party” means any person that either:

(a) holds five percent (5%) or more of an entity’s issued share capital or voting rights;

(b) has the right to appoint a director to an entity’s board of directors or the chief executive officer thereof; or

“Controlling Shareholder” means, for purposes of each of Proposals 2 and 3 and elsewhere as specifically referenced in this proxy statement, any shareholder who has the ability to direct the Company’s activity, including any shareholder holding 50% or more of the “means of control” of the Company. “Means of control” is defined under Israeli law as any one of the following: (i) the right to vote at a general meeting of the Company, or (ii) the right to appoint directors of the Company or its chief executive officer. In addition, solely for purpose of the voting requirement of each of Proposals 2 and 3 “Controlling Shareholders” includes any shareholder holding 25% or more of the Company's voting rights at the General Meeting, so long as there is no other person who holds more than 50% of the voting rights in the Company. For the purpose of this definition, two or more persons who hold rights in the Company, and each of whom has a personal interest in approval of the same transaction by the Company, shall be considered as a single holder.

According to the Companies Regulations (exemptions for companies whose securities are listed for trading on a stock exchange outside of Israel) 5760-2000 (the “Exemption Regulations for Companies Listed Abroad”), by signing and submitting the attached Proxy Card, a shareholder declares and approves that he or she has no Personal Interest in the approval of Proposals 2 and 3 on the Meeting agenda, except if such shareholder notified the Company of such Personal Interest in writing. If you believe that you have a Personal Interest in Proposals 2 or 3 on the Meeting agenda and you wish to inform that Company of such Personal Interest, you should submit such information in advance of voting to the Company at its registered offices, at Elbit Systems Ltd., Advanced Technology Center, Haifa 3100401, Israel, to the attention of Mrs. Adi Pinchas Confino, Corporate Secretary.

VOTING BY PROXY AND ELECTRONIC VOTING

Shareholders may vote their Shares by attending the Meeting and voting their Shares in person, by completing the enclosed proxy card or a voting instruction form (if applicable), or in some cases by casting an electronic vote, as described below.

A form of proxy card for use at the Meeting is enclosed. By appointing a “proxy” or, with respect to “street name” beneficial owners, by returning a properly completed voting instruction form, shareholders may have their Shares voted at the Meeting whether or not they attend. If a properly executed proxy card in the attached form is received by the Company at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the Meeting (i.e., before 2:00 p.m. Israel time, on Wednesday, September 18, 2024), the Shares represented by the proxy will be voted in the manner directed by the persons designated as proxies. “Street name” beneficial owners of Shares should return their voting instruction form by the date and time set forth therein. Shareholders who, at the close of business on the Record Date, either (i) hold Shares through a bank, broker or other holder of record that itself is a Company shareholder or (ii) appear on a participant list of a securities depository with respect to Shares, are considered to be beneficial owners of Shares held in “street name.”

Shareholders who hold their Shares in “street name” may either direct the record holder of their Shares how to vote their Shares (by completing a voting instruction form), or obtain a legal proxy from the record holder to vote at the Meeting on behalf of the record holder together with proof of such record holder’s Share ownership on the Record Date. Shareholders who hold their Shares through a member of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”) and intend to vote their Shares at the Meeting in person or by proxy must deliver to the Company, via messenger or registered mail, proof of ownership issued by the applicable bank or broker, confirming their ownership of the Shares as of the Record Date, prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Israeli Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership of Shares for Voting at General Meetings), 5760-2000.

Shareholders are requested to complete, date and sign the enclosed proxy card or (as applicable) the voting instruction form, and return them promptly. Even if you plan to attend the Meeting, we recommend that you also submit your proxy card or voting instruction form as described in this Proxy Statement so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Meeting.

If you receive a proxy card and provide specific instructions (by marking a box on the proxy card) with regard to a Proposal, your Shares will be voted as you instruct. Unless otherwise indicated on the proxy card or in the electronic vote, and to the extent permitted by law and applicable stock exchange requirements, Shares represented by a properly signed and received proxy card in the enclosed form or in an electronic form will be voted in favor of the Proposals. Abstentions will not be treated as either a vote “for” or “against” a Proposal, although they will be counted to determine if a quorum is present. Thus, if you sign and return your proxy card (or complete your electronic vote) without giving specific instructions with respect to a Proposal, your Shares will be voted in favor of such Proposal.

If you are a “street name” holder and you sign and return your voting instruction form without giving specific instructions with respect to a Proposal, your broker will not be permitted to vote your Shares with respect to such Proposal (commonly referred to as a “broker non-vote”). In such circumstances, your Shares will be included in determining the presence of a quorum at the Meeting but will not be considered “present” for the purpose of voting on such Proposal. Such Shares have no impact on the outcome of the voting on such Proposal.

If you sign and return your proxy card or voting instruction form, the persons named as proxies will vote on such matters as instructed.

The Israel Securities Authority (the “ISA”) has set up an electronic voting system for shareholder meetings of Israeli companies whose shares are listed on the TASE via its online platform. Shareholders are able to vote their Shares through the system, following a registration process, no later than twenty-four (24) hours before the Meeting (i.e., before 2:00 p.m. Israel time, on Wednesday, September 18, 2024).

Shareholders may revoke any proxy card or electronic vote prior to their exercise by filing with the Company a written notice of revocation or a properly signed proxy card of a later date (if received by the Company at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the Meeting), or by voting through the electronic voting system on a later date (if done at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the Meeting), or by voting in person at the Meeting. If you hold your Shares in “street name,” you may change your voting instructions by following the directions provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee.

Solicitation of proxies will be made primarily by mail; however, in some cases proxies may be solicited by telephone or other personal contact. The Company will pay for the cost of the solicitation of proxies, including the cost of preparing, assembling and mailing the proxy materials, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding proxy materials to shareholders.

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying proxy card also constitute a “voting deed” (Ktav Hatzba’a) for the purpose of Regulation 3(c) of the Exemption Regulations for Companies Listed Abroad.

POSITION STATEMENTS

Currently, the Company is not aware of any other matters that will come before the Meeting. If any other matters properly come before the Meeting, the persons designated as proxies in the proxy card intend to vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters. One or more shareholders holding at least one percent (1%) of the Company’s total voting rights may present proposals for consideration at the Meeting, and with respect to the nomination or removal of a board member, at least five percent (5%) of the Company’s total voting rights, by submitting their proposals to the Company at its registered offices, at Elbit Systems Ltd., Advanced Technology Center, Haifa 3100401, Israel, to the attention of Mrs. Adi Pinchas Confino, Corporate Secretary, no later than the close of business on Thursday, August 22, 2024. If the Company determines that a shareholder’s proposal is appropriate for inclusion in the Meeting agenda, a revised agenda will be published by the Company.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES

BY CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

As of August 1, 2024, we had forty-four million four hundred seventy-six thousand eight hundred and forty (44,476,840) Shares outstanding. The following table sets forth specific information as of August 1, 2024, to the best of our knowledge, concerning:

•beneficial ownership of more than 5% of our outstanding Shares; and

•the number of Shares beneficially owned by all of our executive officers and directors as a group. Shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days of August 1, 2024 through the exercise of options under the 2018 Equity Plan (see footnote (4) below) are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding such rights, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person, except with respect to the percentage ownership of all executive officers and Board members as a group.


Name of Shareholder	Number of Shares Beneficially Owned	Percentage of Ownership(1)

Federmann Enterprises Ltd. 99 Hayarkon Street Tel-Aviv, Israel	19,580,342(2)	44.02%

All executive officers and directors as a group (22 persons)	77,524(3)(4)	less than 1%

(1) Based on 44,476,840 Shares outstanding as of August 1, 2024.

(2) Includes 3,836,458 Shares held by Heris Aktiengesellschaft (Heris). Heris is owned, directly and indirectly, by Federmann Enterprises Ltd. (FEL). FEL is controlled by Beit Federmann Ltd. (BFL). BFL is controlled by Beit Bella Ltd. (BBL) and Beit Yekutiel Ltd. (BYL). Michael Federmann is the controlling shareholder of BBL and BYL. He is also the chair of the board and the chief executive officer of FEL. Therefore, Mr. Federmann controls, directly and indirectly, the vote of Shares owned by Heris and FEL (approximately 44.02% of our outstanding Shares). In addition, Michael Federmann is the trustee of a trust on behalf of his sister, Irith Federmann-Landeau, that holds an indirect non-voting economic interest of approximately 7.7% in our outstanding Shares through an indirect approximately 17.5% non-voting interest in FEL. Michael Federmann and his sons, David (who also serves as chair of the Elbit Systems Board), Gideon and Daniel Federmann, collectively hold an indirect economic interest equivalent to approximately 27.2% of our outstanding Shares, with Michael Federmann holding an approximately 7.6% economic interest and each of his sons an approximately 6.5% economic interest. In connection with loans obtained from time to time by FEL from two Israeli banks, FEL has pledged to the banks an aggregate of 3,000,000 of our Shares as security for the loans.

(3) This amount (i) does not include any Shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned by Michael Federmann or David Federmann as described in footnote (2) above and (ii) includes Shares held by the spouse of a director, but the director disclaims beneficial ownership over the spouse's Shares.

(4) The Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan for Executive Officers, as amended from time to time (the “2018 Equity Plan”), includes a “Net Exercise Mechanism” that entitles the recipients to exercise options for the number of shares determined based on the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares underlying such options over the exercise price of such options, calculated based on the date of exercise. The number of Shares reflected above as owned by all executive officers and directors as a group was calculated based on a hypothetical exercise on August 1, 2024, which is a theoretical date. The number of Shares that will actually be issued will vary, depending on the date of exercise and the market price of the Shares on such date. The aggregate number of options granted to executive officers that are exercisable on or within 60 days following August 1, 2024, is 315,821 options.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE CRITERIA

The Audit and Financial Statements Review Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”) performs the functions of an audit committee contemplated under the Companies Law and under the applicable rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Under the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules (the “Nasdaq Rules”) applicable to the Company, a majority of the members of the Board must satisfy certain independence criteria, with such criteria heightened for those members of the Board who are members of our Audit Committee and our Compensation Committee. In addition, in accordance with the Nasdaq Rules, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board, consisting in its entirety of directors meeting the independence criteria for directors as defined by the Nasdaq Rules, among other functions, makes recommendations to the Board of qualified candidates for election or appointment to the Board.

Each of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board has determined that three of the nominees for election as members of the Board (Mr. Ehud (Udi) Adam, Mrs. Tzipi Livni and Prof. Ehood (Udi) Nisan) and both External Directors (Mr. Noaz Bar Nir and Mrs. Bilha (Billy) Shapira) satisfy the independence criteria under the Nasdaq Rules.

In addition, in accordance with the Companies Law, a majority of the members of our Audit Committee must qualify as “Independent Directors” under the Companies Law, and the Audit Committee must also include all “External Directors” of the Company, one of whom must serve as chair of the Audit Committee.

Each of the Audit Committee and the Board has determined that Mr. Adam, Mrs. Livni and Prof. Nisan satisfy the criteria of an “Independent Director” under the Companies Law and that the External Directors Mr. Bar Nir and Mrs. Shapira satisfy the independence criteria for External Directors under the Companies Law.

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

At the Meeting, the following seven individuals, who are not External Directors, are nominated to be elected to the Board: Mr. David Federmann, Mr. Ehud (Udi) Adam, Mrs. Rina Baum, Mr. Michael Federmann, Mrs. Tzipi Livni, Mr. Dov Ninveh and Prof. Ehood (Udi) Nisan.

The Companies Law requires that a person will not be elected and will not serve as a director in a public company if he or she does not have the required qualifications and the ability to dedicate an appropriate amount of time for the performance of his or her director position in the company, taking into consideration, among other factors, the specific needs and size of the company.

A general shareholders’ meeting of a company whose shares are publicly traded, at which the appointment of a director is to be considered, will not be convened unless the person nominated to be so appointed has declared to the company that he or she complies with the above-mentioned requirements and details of his or her applicable qualifications are provided.

Each of the proposed nominees, Mr. David Federmann, Mr. Adam, Mrs. Baum, Mr. Michael Federmann, Mrs. Livni, Mr. Ninveh and Prof. Nisan, has declared to the Company that he or she complies with the required qualifications under the Companies Law for appointment as a member of the Board, detailing his or her applicable qualifications, and that he or she is capable of dedicating the appropriate amount of time for the performance of his or her role as a member of the Board, taking into consideration, among other factors, the specific needs and size of the Company. In addition, Mr. Adam, Mrs. Livni and Prof. Nisan, each has also declared that he or she complies with the criteria of an Independent Director under the Companies Law.

As mentioned above under “DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE CRITERIA,” three of these nominees (Mr. Adam, Mrs. Livni and Prof. Nisan) satisfy the independence criteria for board members under the applicable Nasdaq Rules as well as the criteria of an Independent Director under the Companies Law.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has recommended to the Board that each of the above-named nominees be nominated for election to the Board. The recommendation is in line with the policies adopted by the Board with respect to diversity and limitations on other board memberships of its members.

The Board has approved the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee with respect to the above list of nominees.

Each nominee so elected as a Director will hold office until the close of the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified, unless any Director’s office is vacated earlier in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law and the Company’s Articles of Association.

In accordance with the Company’s compensation policy, approved by the Company’s shareholders in April 2021 (the “Previous Compensation Policy”), and in accordance with the Israeli Companies Regulations (Relief from Related Parties’ Transactions), 5760-2000 (the “Relief Regulations”), the Company’s Compensation Committee and Board have approved payment to the Company’s current and future directors (including Mr. Michael Federmann, who may be considered a direct or indirect Controlling Shareholder of the Company, and his son, Mr. David Federmann) of compensation for their service as directors, in accordance with maximum regulatory rates payable to External Directors under Israeli law for companies similarly classified based on their equity as may from time to time be updated by the Israeli regulations.

As a result, if elected, each of the Company’s Directors would be entitled to an annual fee of NIS 123,680 (equal to approximately $32,600) and a per meeting fee of NIS 4,765 (equal to approximately $1,300), which reflect the current fee levels mentioned above, linked to the Israeli consumer price index. Compensation payments to directors are made either directly to the director or to his or her employing company.

All nominees will continue to be covered by the indemnification letters and exemption letters previously approved by the Company’s shareholders. As required under the Companies Law, the granting of indemnification and exemption letters to Mr. Michael Federmann, who may be considered a direct or indirect Controlling Shareholder of the Company, and his son, Mr. David Federmann, must be re-approved by the Company’s shareholders every three years. At the Annual General Meeting held in August 2023, the Company’s shareholders re-approved the granting of indemnification letters (originally granted in 2011) to Messrs. Michael Federmann and David Federmann, for an additional period of three years commencing on December 1, 2023, and the granting of exemption letters to each of them for an additional period of three years commencing on April 7, 2024. In addition, in accordance with the Previous Compensation Policy, each of the Company’s Directors (including Mr. Michael Federmann, who may be considered a direct or indirect Controlling Shareholder of the Company, and his son, Mr. David Federmann), is and will be covered by a directors and officers liability insurance policy, to be purchased from time to time by the Company in compliance with the provisions of the applicable compensation policy, the Companies Law and the Relief Regulations.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR approval of all the nominees to the Board.

PROPOSAL 2 - APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S AMENDED COMPENSATION POLICY

As required by the Companies Law, the Company has adopted a compensation policy regarding the terms of office and employment of its “office holders” (as such term is defined in the Companies Law). The members of the Board (the “Directors”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and the Company’s Executive Vice Presidents (the “EVPs”) (the CEO and the EVPs are collectively referred to as the “Executive Officers”) are considered “office holders”. The Company's previous compensation policy was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on April 7, 2021 (the “Previous Compensation Policy”).

Pursuant to the Companies Law, a compensation policy of a publicly traded company such as the Company needs to be periodically reviewed by the compensation committee and board of directors and needs to be re-approved every three years by (i) the board of directors, following the recommendation of the compensation committee; and (ii) by the applicable majority of the company’s shareholders. In the event that the compensation policy is not approved by shareholders, the board of directors may nonetheless approve it, provided that the compensation committee and board of directors, following further discussion of the matter and for specified reasons, determine that the approval of the compensation policy is in the best interests of the company.

Corporate Governance Highlights

The Company places significant emphasis on its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) practices, including in the areas of environmental, health and safety; corporate governance, ethics and anti-corruption; fair labor practices and human rights; supply chain compliance; and social responsibility to the communities in which it operates. We conduct our business activities and develop Company policies based on a firm commitment to ethical practices and corporate governance best practices. Further information is available in our latest sustainability report available on the Company’s website.

Our Board complies with leading corporate governance practices as set forth in our Board committee charters published on our website, and is comprised of members with vast skill and knowledge, diverse experience, including in the fields of governmental, industry and finance, and varied academic backgrounds. The Company also promotes gender diversity among its Board members and has adopted a policy of having at least 25% gender-diverse members on the Board. We publish a Board diversity matrix on our website detailing how each of the Company’s directors self- identifies based on gender, race, ethnicity, and/or LGBTQ+ status.

None of our directors serves as an executive officer of the Company and a majority of our directors is “independent” as defined in applicable Nasdaq rules and under the Companies Law. Each of our Board committees, including our Compensation Committee and our Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, is composed exclusively of directors who are independent. Our independent directors also conduct periodic “executive sessions” without the presence of management and non-independent directors. Nominees for appointment or election as a director are recommended by the Board’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee. The chair of our Compensation Committee is an External Director.

Development of the Amended Compensation Policy

As part of the process for developing the amended compensation policy (which is substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Proxy Statement, the “Amended Compensation Policy”), our Compensation Committee engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers Advisory Ltd. (“PWC Israel”) to prepare the independent and objective benchmark analysis, as specified below. We also engaged a division of Aon plc. (“Aon”), a leading global professional services firm, to assist with the development of other aspects of the Amended Compensation Policy. The process also included engagements with other U.S. and Israeli consultants that provided legal, financial, market practice and other advice or information. The Compensation Committee and Board carefully evaluated this guidance, ultimately reaching their conclusions independently about what changes to recommend.

As further described below, the Compensation Committee and Board considered a variety of factors in preparing the Amended Compensation Policy, including strong recent growth, business and other developments within the Company and in industries in which the Company operates, since the approval of the Previous Compensation Policy, feedback from investors and proxy advisory firms, the Company’s unique position as a large international company based in Israel and a benchmark analysis comparing executive compensation with peer group companies in both Israel and the U.S.

Strong Company Growth

Company revenues in 2023 were approximately $6 billion, growing from approximately $4.7 billion in 2020, an increase of approximately 28%. At the end of 2023, the Company reported a record order backlog of approximately $17.8 billion, compared to an order backlog of $11.0 billion at the end of 2020, an increase of approximately 61%. The order backlog further increased to approximately $21.1 billion as of June 30, 2024, providing the Company with a good basis for expectations regarding future revenues.

The Company's growth continued in the first six months of 2024, with Company revenues increasing by approximately 48% compared to the first six months of 2020. During this period, the Company also reported an improvement in additional financial parameters. For further information, see the Investor Overview at: https://elbitsystems.com/ir-category/investor-relations/presentation-webcasts/.

The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the growth in revenues and order backlog was due in significant part to successful marketing efforts led by the Company’s senior management and a relevant portfolio of solutions developed under management guidance, and was supported by acquisitions, which were also led by senior management. It was also noted that since approval of the Previous Compensation Policy, Company shareholders have benefitted from both share price appreciation and regular quarterly dividends, which increased from 44 cents a quarter in the fourth quarter of 2020 to 50 cents a quarter in the second quarter of 2024.

Principal Developments Since Approval of the Previous Compensation Policy

Increasingly complex Company operations and macroeconomic environment.

Along with strong growth, the total number of Company employees increased from approximately 16,676 at the end of 2020 to approximately 18,984 at the end of 2023, an increase of approximately 14%. The Company also continued to establish new entities to strengthen its global presence, and currently operates through dozens of subsidiaries, facilities and partnerships worldwide. In recent years, the Company has been successful in obtaining an increased number of large-scale programs, each amounting to revenues of $100 million or more.

During the applicable period, the macro-economic environment has presented a series of challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions and shortages of critical electronic components following the pandemic, changing labor markets and the surge in demand for our solutions following the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in February 2022 and, most recently, the “Swords of Iron” war in Israel. Our senior management has implemented a variety of mitigation strategies to successfully address supply chain and other disruptions and reduce risks to the Company from inflationary pressures.

At the same time, the Company continued its strategic investments in R&D, building new and expanding existing facilities and infrastructure, important steps in providing the foundation for value creation over the longer term. Since approval of the Previous Compensation Policy in 2021, the Company has also made strategic acquisitions, including the purchase by Elbit Systems of America of Sparton Corporation ("Sparton") in 2021, which is significant to the Company's long-term growth strategy, with a particular focus on expansion in the U.S. and global maritime markets.

The Compensation Committee and Board considered the growing responsibilities, duties and burdens imposed on the Company’s Executive Officers as a result of the increasing complexity of the Company's business after years of strong growth and macro-economic challenges.

Changes in the defense and security markets in which the Company operates.

The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has led to a noticeable increase in defense budgets around the world and particularly in Europe, which became the Company's most significant geography by revenues in 2023. The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the growth in European revenues, which increased by 117% between 2020 and 2023, was made possible by a decade long effort led by our President and CEO, Mr. Bezhalel Machlis, and the executive team to invest significant resources in developing a presence in multiple European countries. In addition, the Abraham Accords signed since September 2020 between Israel and the UAE, Morocco, Sudan and Bahrain have opened new markets for the Company that were historically inaccessible. These markets present significant potential for the Company but also require an investment of effort and resources, including significant management attention, to realize the potential.

More recently during the “Swords of Iron” war in Israel, the Company has provided increased support to the Israel Ministry of Defense (the “IMOD”), which has materially increased its demand for our products resulting in receipt of significant orders from the IMOD. The growth in demand heightened our level of operations and increased the complexity associated with managing the Company.

The Compensation Committee and Board believe the Company is in a unique position following the increased demand for its products resulting from recent conflicts and considered the need for strong, experienced and stable leadership to face current and future challenges and realize the Company's potential.

Changes in labor market resulting in increase in executive compensation.

In recent years, and particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has witnessed an increase in competition for highly skilled, technologically capable employees and executives in countries in which it operates around the world. This has resulted in increased demand for executives with a technological background and experience working in global companies such as Elbit Systems. The benchmarking analysis described below comparing executive compensation with peer group companies demonstrates this growing demand for high-quality executive talent and the value our peer group companies ascribe to their executives.

The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the ability to recruit and maintain key and highly qualified management remains one of the Company's ongoing challenges that the Amended Compensation Policy is designed to help address.

Shareholder and Proxy Advisory Firms Engagement and Feedback

We value our shareholders and the ongoing feedback they provide to the Company about its operations and practices. We believe that an ongoing dialogue with our investors enables us to better understand their perspectives and their feedback is carefully reviewed. As part of our general engagement with our principal shareholders, we also invited them to share their views on executive compensation and conducted discussions with them on these matters.

In the process of developing the Amended Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee and Board took into consideration a wide variety of feedback received from Company investors, as well as policies regarding executive compensation adopted by certain institutional investors. This process also included engagement with proxy international and local advisory firms, as well as a review of their guidelines and previous feedback they have provided to the Company. The Compensation Committee and Board evaluated these various inputs and discussed which proposed actions or suggested changes might be appropriate for implementation.

Various components of the Amended Compensation Policy were revised taking into consideration the feedback received. It was also decided to adopt several additional limitations under the Amended Compensation Policy, including:

(i)imposing a new limitation on the aggregate value of compensation payments to Executive Officers related to the termination of their service to the Company;

(ii)broadening the Company's right to clawback Executive Officer compensation to certain instances which are over and above the Nasdaq and Companies Law requirements; and

(iii)placing additional limitations on the circumstances in which acceleration of options may be permitted.

The Company’s Unique Position as a Large International Company Based in Israel

Elbit Systems is an international defense high-end technology company with an extensive global footprint, uniquely positioned as an Israeli-based company with its Shares traded on both the TASE and Nasdaq. The Company's products include both hardware and software for defense and commercial applications. The Company competes with large U.S. and European companies and derives a large majority of its revenues (approximately 80% in 2023) from outside of Israel. Competition for the Company's workforce is global and multidisciplinary, as the Company competes for talent with both defense and high-tech companies, and with both local and international companies. There are no stock exchange listed Israel-based defense companies of comparable size to Elbit Systems, and the number of Israeli companies outside of the defense industry with market

capitalization ("market cap") or other characteristics similar to that of the Company, such as revenues or number of employees, is also limited.

Elbit Systems operates through five segments, each with annual revenues of between $0.7 billion and $1.9 billion (as of December 31, 2023). Each segment manages multiple sites globally and thousands of employees. Along with managing their respective segment or professional department, Company executives are required to work together to maximize synergies across the Company. The complexity of the Company’s operations has significantly increased in recent years, requiring a highly skilled management with a diverse skill set. Due to the long-term nature of its business, in terms of high-end technology research and development, multi-year programs and long-lasting customer relationships, the Company places a high value on retaining executives for long periods of service, as is the case with many other companies in its industry.

Benchmark Analysis

In order to develop the Amended Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee conducted a thorough review of the Previous Compensation Policy and evaluated various potential adjustments required to adapt it to the evolving competitive environment for senior executives in the principal markets where the Company operates, and especially in Israel where there is growing demand for executives capable of managing global companies. The Compensation Committee engaged PWC Israel as an independent advisor to conduct an analysis of benchmark information comparing the Company’s executive compensation with that of peer group companies in 2023 (the “Benchmark Analysis”). PWC Israel reported its findings to our Compensation Committee.

Due to Elbit System’s unique position as a large international company based in Israel, set forth above, it was decided to include in the Benchmark Analysis compensation information from two sample groups of comparable companies, the composition of each determined with the advice of PWC Israel. Sample A included 10 Israeli companies listed on the TASE and/or U.S. stock exchanges with the majority of their revenues and/or business activities outside of Israel, each with an approximate market cap of between 50% and 200% of the Company’s market cap – five companies with a market cap higher than that of the Company, and five companies with a market cap lower than that of the Company.1 Sample B included nine defense and defense services companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges that the Company considers competitors for its products and solutions, each with an approximate market cap of between 50% and 200% of the Company’s market cap – four companies with a market cap higher than that of the Company, and five companies with a market cap lower than that of the Company.2 None of the companies in Sample B are incorporated in Israel. 3

The companies in Sample A are based or have a significant presence in Israel, but at the same time are global companies conducting a majority of their business outside of Israel, as does the Company. For this reason, the Compensation Committee believes that the companies in Sample A are especially relevant from an executive compensation perspective. The inclusion of Sample B was designed in part to take into account that approximately 24% of Elbit Systems’ revenues in 2023 was derived from sales to North America, the largest single target market for the Company's products and solutions. In addition, most of the Company's competitors are located outside of Israel, and many of them are U.S. companies.

The Benchmark Analysis (including the information regarding market cap) was based on information published by the companies in each sample group for fiscal year 2023 with respect to the following three compensation components: annual cost of salary, annual bonus and long-term incentive for the applicable vesting year. This peer group information was compared to compensation information for the Company’s Executive Officers as recorded in the Company's financial statements for 2023.4

1 Sample A included the following companies: Check Point Software Technologies Ltd., NICE Ltd., Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, CyberArk Software Ltd., monday.com Ltd., SentinalOne, Inc., Wix.com Ltd., ICL Group Ltd., Global-E Online Ltd. and Varonis Systems, Inc. Market cap was calculated by PWC Israel based on average market cap as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024.

2 Sample B included the following companies: Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation, Textron Inc., Leidos Holdings, Inc., Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc., BWX Technologies, Inc., CACI International Inc., Science Applications International Corporation, CAE Inc. and Leonardo DRS, Inc. Market cap was calculated by PWC Israel based on average market cap as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024.

3 Some peer group companies did not publish comparable information regarding all three components; in such cases, the comparisons described above were made only with those companies that did publish such information (limiting the number of relevant companies in the sample group). The Benchmark Analysis included further details regarding methodology that are not detailed in this Proxy Statement.

4 Bonus costs are recorded in the Company's financial statements based on the date of payment; therefore, Company compensation information includes bonus payments made during 2023, rather than bonus payments for performance in 2023, which is the case in respect of the peer group companies.

Based on these comparisons, the Compensation Committee and Board noted that total compensation of the Company’s CEO in 2023 (comprised of all three of the components mentioned above) was lower than both the average and median of the Company peer group in both samples – indeed, the pay of the Company's CEO was in the first quartile of the peer group companies in Sample A, and lower than any of the peer group companies in Sample B.

The Compensation Committee and Board further noted, based on the comparison of peer group companies, that the average total compensation (comprised of all three of the components mentioned above) of the Company’s EVPs in 2023 was lower than any of the peer group companies in both Sample A and Sample B.5

In addition, based on the Benchmark Analysis, it was especially evident that the long-term incentive component of compensation paid to the Company's CEO and average of the EVPs in 2023 was significantly lower than that of the comparable companies (with such long-term incentive being lower in both cases than any of the peer group companies in both Sample A and Sample B).

As part of development of the Amended Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee and Board also compared the proposed new ceilings for the annual cost of salary, annual bonus and long-term incentive to (i) the relevant ceilings set under the compensation policies of the companies included in Sample A that are required to adopt such policies under Israeli law, and (ii) the actual compensation provided in 2023 to executives of peer group companies in both Sample A and Sample B. These comparisons assessed whether the proposed new ceilings for Company executives were reasonable in light of market practices at peer group companies, and is further detailed under “Benchmark Forward-Looking Comparison” below.

Performance-Based Compensation

The Company aims to incentivize its Executive Officers by creating a strong link between performance and compensation. Our Compensation Committee and Board strive to provide an appropriate mix of compensation that reflects stable fixed compensation on the one hand, with variable performance-based compensation on the other hand, as well as a healthy balance between short- and long-term incentives.

Considering the Company's development in recent years, including its strategy and challenges, and after taking into account investor feedback and the analysis provided by various outside consultants, the compensation Committee and Board have designed a significant portion of the compensation of our Executive Officers, and in particular our President and CEO, in the Amended Compensation Policy, to align with shareholder interest and long-term Company value creation.

In particular, our Compensation Committee and Board have determined that:

(i)a majority of the CEO's compensation should be variable, performance-based and at risk;

(ii)the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward long-term than short-term performance; and

(iii)the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward equity than cash.

Proposed Amended Compensation Policy

After taking into consideration the factors and information described above, and in view of the Company’s experience implementing the Previous Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that it is desirable to retain the overall structure of the Previous Compensation Policy, with certain amendments. Below is a summary of the principal changes in the Amended Compensation Policy from the Previous Compensation Policy, the description of which is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Amended Compensation Policy itself, which is attached as Exhibit A to this Proxy Statement:

5 Total compensation of the Company’s EVPs in 2023 was calculated using the average of the total compensation for the Company’s four most highly compensated EVPs, as set forth in our 2023 Annual Report. With respect to peer group companies, in each case where comparative information about more than one VP was available, the average amount of compensation with respect to such VPs was used.

Variable Compensation Ratio:

In order to increase “pay for performance” and allow for the shift of greater weight of our executive compensation toward long-term incentives that better align with shareholder interests, the Compensation Committee and Board proposed to amend the ratio between “Variable Compensation” (cash bonuses and equity-based awards) of an Executive Officer and his or her total compensation package, on an annual basis, from 80% currently to 85% in the Amended Compensation Policy.

Monthly Base Salary:

The Previous Compensation Policy set maximum monthly gross base salaries for Executive Officers as follows: (i) for the CEO, two hundred and fifty thousand shekels (NIS 250,000) (equal to approximately sixty-six thousand dollars ($66,000)), with such amount subject to adjustments to reflect increases in the Israeli Consumer Price Index (the “CPI”), and (ii) for an EVP, one hundred and eighty thousand shekels (NIS 180,000) (equal to approximately forty-eight thousand dollars ($48,000)), subject to CPI increases. As of August 1, 2024, the CEO’s monthly gross base salary is approximately two hundred seventy-two thousand shekels (NIS 272,000) (equal to approximately seventy-two thousand dollars ($72,000)).

The Amended Compensation Policy would raise the maximum monthly gross base salary payable to the CEO to three hundred thousand shekels (NIS 300,000) (equal to approximately seventy-nine thousand dollars ($79,000), an increase of approximately 10.3% from Mr. Machlis' current monthly base salary and of 20% from the ceiling under the Previous Compensation Policy, with such amount subject to adjustments to reflect CPI increases. Under the Amended Compensation Policy, the maximum monthly gross base salary payable to an EVP would increase to two hundred thousand shekels (NIS 200,000) (equal to approximately fifty-three thousand dollars ($53,000), an increase of approximately 11% from the ceiling under the Previous Compensation Policy, with such amount subject to adjustments to reflect CPI increases.

The Compensation Committee and Board considered that the monthly gross salary of Mr. Machlis, has not changed since 2021 (other than due to CPI increases), while the complexity of managing the Company has significantly increased in recent years. It was also considered that the EVPs’ salaries are individually determined, taking into account their specific roles, responsibilities, backgrounds and other characteristics, with changes typically being made gradually with specific approvals as required by law.

Annual Bonus:

The Company maintains an annual pay-for-performance bonus plan for its Executive Officers based on pre-determined goals. Goals for the EVPs may include Company-wide targets such as financial parameters, as well as division specific targets and personal targets. The CEO's targets reflect only Company-wide goals related to non-GAAP net profit and operating cash flow, which the Compensation Committee and Board consider to be key drivers of shareholder returns. All annual bonuses are subject to a precondition, according to which either (a) the Company's non-GAAP Net Profit attributable to shareholders (“Non-GAAP Net Profit”) for the fiscal year as reflected in the Company’s published full-year financial results must be at least 80% of the Company's Non-GAAP Net Profit for the preceding fiscal year; or (b) the Company's Non-GAAP Net Profit for the fiscal year must be at least 80% of the Non-GAAP Net Profit in the Company's annual budget as approved by the Board for such fiscal year.

The Previous Compensation Policy provides a maximum annual bonus amount of $2 million for the CEO and nine (9) monthly base salaries for EVPs. The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the existing annual bonus structure is efficient and properly incentivizes Executive Officers to achieve excellence. Following feedback from our investors and from proxy advisory firms, the Compensation Committee and Board concluded that it is advisable to maintain the existing annual bonus provisions relating to the CEO, and not to increase the ceiling of the CEO annual bonus amount, although such ceiling has not been increased since 2021. The Compensation Committee and Board believe the main growth in the CEO's compensation should be in the long-term component, which is significantly lower than peer group companies and which, if augmented, would increase alignment with shareholder interests.

With regard to the annual bonus for EVPs, however, the Compensation Committee and Board decided to add an exception for EVPs at the Company’s headquarters (such as the Chief Legal Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer), for whom financial objectives may account for between 25% - 100% (rather than between 50%-100%, as provided in the Previous Compensation Policy) of relevant performance measures, with the business, operating and other objectives accounting for the remainder thereof. It was also decided to add ESG and compliance measures as examples of other objectives. The Compensation Committee and Board decided that business, operating and other objectives may be given greater emphasis in determining the

annual bonus of EVPs at the Company’s headquarters in order to recognize the special role such executives play as “gatekeepers” for the Company, and to reflect the importance the Company places on ESG and compliance.

Compensation Recovery (“Clawback”):

Our Compensation Committee and Board determined to include an additional and more stringent clawback provision than those already provided in the Previous Compensation Policy. The new clawback provision in the Amended Compensation Policy would allow the Company, in the event of a dismissal for cause of an Executive Officer due to his or her breach of fiduciary duty to the Company, to recover from such Executive Officer the bonus compensation paid to him or her in the preceding 12-month period, net of taxes, subject to applicable law. These clawback provisions do not derogate from any other clawback or similar provisions by virtue of applicable law, listing rules or under any other applicable clawback policy approved by the Board (including that required by Nasdaq).

Equity-Based Compensation:

As described above, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward long-term than short-term performance and should be more heavily weighted toward equity than cash. They also considered the fact that equity-based compensation maximizes alignment of long-term interests among the Company, management and shareholders and incentivizes value creation. The Compensation Committee and Board considered what form equity grants should take and determined to retain option grants as a simple and effective form of long-term equity incentive since, unlike RSUs, options inherently include a market-linked metric whereby the Executive Officer will only benefit from the equity grant if the Company's share price increases above the exercise price of the option.

To more heavily weight long-term incentives and to assist in retaining and motivating the Company’s executives, the Compensation Committee and Board decided to amend the equity-based compensation ceilings as follows:

The Previous Compensation Policy provided that the aggregate value of the benefit embedded in granted equity-based awards, calculated on the date of grant in accordance with an acceptable valuation method (such as the Monte Carlo, Black-Scholes or Binominal options pricing models), would not exceed: (i) with respect to the CEO - one million eight hundred thousand dollars ($1,800,000) per year, and (ii) with respect to an EVP - nine hundred thousand dollars ($900,000) per year.

The Amended Compensation Policy proposes to amend these amounts so that the aggregate value of the benefit embedded in granted equity-based awards, calculated on the date of grant in accordance with an acceptable valuation method (such as the Monte Carlo, Black-Scholes or Binominal options pricing models), will not exceed :(i) with respect to the CEO – three million five hundred thousand dollars ($3,500,000) per year (the “Maximum CEO's Equity Amount”), and (ii) with respect to an EVP – one million one hundred thousand dollars ($1,100,000) per year.

It should be noted that these ceilings take into account the annualized value of options previously granted to Executive Officers, the vesting periods of which have not yet ended. For example, when applying the annual maximum equity-based ceiling in respect of our CEO under the Amended Compensation Policy, a value of approximately $870,000 per year will generally be added to the value of the new grants, due to options granted to him in 2021, until the full vesting period of five years has elapsed. Without taking into account prior grants, the proposed Maximum CEO's Equity Amount during such period is actually $2,630,000.

In determining the new ceilings, the Compensation Committee and Board considered, among other things, the Benchmark Analysis, which found that the long-term equity incentive provided to our CEO in 2023 was lower than any of the peer group companies in either sample group. Even in view of the Benchmark Forward-Looking Comparison (as described below), the revised equity-based compensation ceiling in the Amended Compensation Policy with respect to the CEO remains relatively low, below the average and median of the peer group companies in both sample groups – in the first quartile of Sample A and lower than any of the peer group companies in Sample B. CEO equity incentives remain relatively low even when considering the potential increase in the Maximum CEO's Equity Amount (which may be approved by the Compensation Committee and Board under exceptional circumstances once during the period of the Amended Compensation Policy, as described below). Even with such increase, the Maximum CEO's Equity Amount is below the average and the median of the peer group companies in both sample groups – in the first quartile of both Sample A and Sample B.

The Compensation Committee and Board have proposed several other changes in the Amended Compensation Policy related to the award of equity-based compensation, as follows:

•Vesting - Noting that many comparable companies set three (3) years as the minimum vesting period in their compensation policies, the Amended Compensation Policy establishes a minimum vesting period of four (4) years, instead of five (5) years provided under the Previous Compensation Policy, with the first vesting date to occur after a minimum of two (2) years.

•Acceleration - Under the Previous Compensation Policy, options could be accelerated in certain circumstances, subject to approval of the Compensation Committee and Board. Following feedback from investors, the Amended Compensation Policy limits the circumstances in which acceleration would be permitted to specific instances, as specified in the Amended Compensation Policy.

•Additional conditions to grants and vesting - The Amended Compensation Policy includes certain changes in respect of the definition of the “Date of the Board Resolution” as well as vesting conditions, in order to provide the Board with greater flexibility in setting additional conditions for option grants, including delaying a grant, or vesting of an equity-based award, as necessary, to achieve the Company’s goals.

•One-Time Increase in Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount - The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the current geopolitical environment and related increases in global defense spending, together with recent strategic efforts and M&A activities led by the Company’s executives, present the potential for the Company to accelerate growth and expand its position as a leading global supplier of advanced technologies to the defense market, which if achieved could have parallel benefits for Company shareholders and other stakeholders for years to come. To incentivize our CEO to pursue such opportunity, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that it would be appropriate to define an extraordinary strategic achievement that would have the potential to accelerate the growth of the Company in an advanced technological field, and to link such achievement to an increase in the CEO’s equity compensation.

The Amended Compensation Policy provides that the Compensation Committee and Board may approve a one-time increase in the annual Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount by up to $1,000,000, to allow for the grant of performance-based options to the CEO, with such options tied to an exceptional significant strategic achievement that is expected to benefit the Company, as may be determined by the Compensation Committee and Board. The performance-based options will vest only if such an achievement is obtained within a defined period. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee and Board have defined specific criteria for such an achievement (the details of which are commercially sensitive and therefore not further detailed herein), relating to the entry, within a two-year period, into a strategic program with a customer, with a value of at least one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000), that includes research and development of a state of the art technology in an advanced and innovative field.

The Compensation Committee and Board considered that, because of a cashless exercise mechanism in the Company’s option plans, the actual number of shares issued as a result of the exercise of options by Executive Officers and employees is considerably less than the number of options granted. According to the information in the Company's financial statements, in each of 2021, 2022 and 2023, the actual dilution as a result of exercise of options granted by the Company to Executive Officers and employees was below 0.5%. The Compensation Committee and Board believe these low dilution rates indicate responsible use of equity grants over the years.

The Compensation Committee and Board recommended that the maximum dilution as a result of equity-based awards granted to Executive Officers during the three-year term of the Amended Compensation Policy remain as it was under the Previous Compensation Policy and not exceed three percent (3%) of the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, on a fully-diluted basis.

Pursuant to the Amended Compensation Policy, based on the proposed ceilings for monthly base salary, annual bonus and equity-based compensation, between approximately 54% and 60% of the total CEO compensation may be allocated to long-term incentives (compared to approximately 39% under the Previous Compensation Policy), with more than a third of the options proposed to be granted to the CEO under Proposal 3 below, being performance-based.

Retirement and Termination of Service Arrangements:

In view of comments received from investors and proxy advisory firms, the Compensation Committee and Board have re-evaluated the need for additional limitations regarding retirement and termination of service arrangements and have decided to include in the Amended Compensation Policy a significant overall monetary limitation on amounts to be granted under such arrangements going forward.

The Previous Compensation Policy allowed certain compensation grants to Executive Officers related to retirement or other termination of service to the Company, including Severance Pay, Advanced Notice and Adjustment Period/ Retirement Grant (as such terms are explained therein), subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Amended Compensation Policy would limit the aggregate value of all such amounts to a maximum of twelve (12) months’ cost of salary of such Executive Officer (in addition to any amounts provided by law), subject to certain exceptions, and would be applicable to commitments made by the Company after the Amended Compensation Policy goes into effect.

Insurance:

The Amended Compensation Policy proposes to increase the maximum coverage limitation under liability insurance policies for directors and Executive Officers from $200 million currently to $250 million. The Compensation Committee and Board considered market practice in this area and determined that the increase is appropriate considering the Company’s recent growth and increased complexity and the related increase in potential liability associated with serving as a director or Executive Officer.

Benchmark Forward-Looking Comparison

Following development of the proposed new amounts or ceilings for annual cost of salary, annual bonus and long-term incentives, as described above, the Compensation Committee and Board compared each such amount or ceiling to the actual 2023 compensation of the two sample groups in the Benchmark Analysis (the "Forward-Looking Comparison"). This analysis, which was done to assess whether the proposed new amounts and ceilings were reasonable in light of market practices at peer group companies, compared historical information of peer group companies at a fixed point in time (2023) with potential future compensation to be provided to the Company’s CEO and EVPs pursuant to the Amended Compensation Policy6 over a three-year period (i.e., until 2027). As such, the Forward-Looking Comparison does not consider any increase in compensation of executives at peer group companies since 2023, and in addition does not consider any compensation ceilings under their respective compensation policies (which are likely to be higher than their actual total compensation in 2023).

Despite these limitations, the Compensation Committee and Board found the comparison instructive, noting that it demonstrated that the proposed maximum amounts that will potentially be paid under the Amended Compensation Policy for annual cost of salary, annual bonus and long-term incentive of the CEO are below the average and median total compensation paid to CEOs in 2023 in both Samples A and B (in the first quartile of both Sample A and Sample B, and in the second quartile of Sample A and first quartile of Sample B if the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount is increased under exceptional circumstances as described above). Under the Amended Compensation Policy, most of the proposed increase in CEO compensation is in long-term incentive; even so, the long-term incentive provided to the CEO remains below the average and median of peer group companies in both Sample A and Sample B.

The Compensation Committee and Board further noted that the Forward-Looking Comparison demonstrated that the proposed maximum amounts that will potentially be paid under the Amended Compensation Policy for annual cost of salary, annual bonus and long-term incentive of the Company’s EVPs are below the average and median total compensation paid in 2023 to VPs in Sample A (below any of the peer group companies) and Sample B (in the second quartile).

Based in part on the Benchmark Analysis and other considerations described in this Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee and Board believe that the proposed compensation amounts and ceilings contained in the Amended Compensation Policy are appropriate.

6 The cost of salary component of the Company's Executive Officers as used in the Forward-Looking Comparison is an estimation based on the revised "Monthly Base Salary" provided in the Amended Compensation Policy as described above, and an addition of 40% of the annual salary for benefits, but not taking into account consumer price index increases.

Recommendations

The Compensation Committee and Board considered the fact that the Company’s Executive Officers represent an exclusive group of senior managers with substantial experience and expertise in managing a global organization, most of whom have been employed by the Company for many years,7 and concluded that it is in the best interest of the Company to maintain a strong and stable leadership team to align with the Company's long-term goals and attributes.

In light of increased demand in the defense field and operational and business challenges resulting from recent conflicts, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that the proposed increases to the base salary and equity ceilings for the CEO an EVPs and other changes contained in the Amended Compensation Policy as described above are necessary to attract and retain talented, qualified and experienced managers capable of successfully navigating the Company's current challenges and incentivize them to maximize the Company's current growth trajectory.

In light of all of the above, the Compensation Committee and Board each determined that the Amended Compensation Policy complies with the Company’s strategies, goals and risk management principles. Based upon the above determination, the Board, with the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approved the Amended Compensation Policy. If approved, the Amended Compensation Policy will be in effect as of the date of such approval for a three-year period thereafter or as otherwise may be required by the Companies Law.

Unlike the “say-on-pay” votes found in some proxy statements for U.S. domestic companies, the shareholder vote on this Proposal is binding under Israeli law and not merely advisory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Companies Law allows our Board to nonetheless approve the Proposal, provided that the Compensation Committee and Board have determined, based on detailed reasoning and a re-evaluation of the matter, that the Proposal is in the best interests of the Company despite the opposition of shareholders.

At the Meeting, the Board will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

“RESOLVED, that the Amended Compensation Policy of the Company, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Proxy Statement, be approved.”

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR approval of this resolution.

PROPOSAL 3 - APPROVAL OF THE AMENDED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT OF THE COMPANY’S PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Mr. Bezhalel Machlis has served as the Company’s President and CEO since 2013 under a personal employment agreement originally ending in 2016, which was extended and revised with shareholder approval on April 7, 2021 (the “Current Employment Agreement”). According to the terms of the Current Employment Agreement, the CEO’s employment terms will be reviewed every three years.

From 2008 until 2012, Mr. Machlis served as the Company’s executive vice president and general manager - land and C4I, after serving as corporate vice president and general manager - land systems and C4I since 2004. In 2003, he served as corporate vice president and general manager - ground, C4I and battlefield systems. From 2000 until 2002, he served as vice president - battlefield and information systems. Mr. Machlis joined Elbit Ltd. in 1991 and held various management positions in the battlefield and information systems area. Prior to that, he served as an artillery officer in the IDF, where he holds the rank of colonel (reserves). Mr. Machlis holds a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering and a bachelor of arts degree in computer science from the Israel Institute of Technology (the Technion) in Haifa and a MBA from Tel-Aviv University. He is a graduate of Harvard University Business School's Advanced Management Program in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Pursuant to the Companies Law, any arrangement between a publicly traded company and its general manager regarding the terms of office and employment of the general manager is subject to the approval of the compensation committee, the board of directors and the applicable majority of the company’s shareholders. Mr. Machlis’ position meets the definition of general manager under the Companies Law. In accordance with the Companies Law, in the event the terms of the amended employment agreement with Mr. Machlis as the Company’s President and CEO (the “Amended Employment Agreement”) are not approved by the shareholders, the Compensation Committee and Board may nonetheless approve such terms in special cases, provided that the Compensation Committee, followed by the Board, decide to approve them based on detailed reasoning after re-evaluation of the matter and taking into consideration the opposition of shareholders.

The Company’s Compensation Committee and Board have approved (subject to the approval of an amended compensation policy that would be in line with the Amended Employment Agreement) the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement, as set forth below, and recommend that the Amended Employment Agreement be approved by the Company’s shareholders.

The Compensation Committee and Board considered the skills, background, experience, business responsibilities and past performance of Mr. Machlis and evaluated the significant contributions Mr. Machlis has made to the Company and the fact that during his tenure as President and CEO, the Company has achieved extraordinary growth, including international expansion. The Compensation Committee and Board attribute many of the Company's achievements under his tenure to Mr. Machlis' risk management and strategic decision making, including research and development decisions that created business opportunities, value generation and growth potential; strategic mergers and acquisitions, such as acquisitions of Harris Night Vision and Sparton, which enhanced the Company's industrial position in the U.S and of IMI, which opened new important markets and enabled the Company to leverage integrated solutions; strategic business development, such as organizational changes to address market developments and needs and the successful establishment of subsidiaries in key territories, which enabled the Company to expand, obtain new business and maintain close relationships with existing customers in challenging times; and successful overall management of the Company through various global crises and operational challenges, including the Covid-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the "Swords of Iron" war. It was also noted that from the start of Mr. Machlis' tenure as the Company's President and CEO in April 2013 through April 2024, the Company’s market cap increased by 388%.

The Compensation Committee and Board also considered, among other factors, (a) the consistency of the Amended Employment Agreement with provisions of the Company’s Amended Compensation Policy, as recommended for approval in Proposal 2 of this Proxy Statement, and the rationales for approval raised in connection therewith; (b) the Benchmark Analysis (as described in Proposal 2 to this Proxy Statement); (c) the fact that the basic compensation structure under Mr. Machlis’ employment agreement has generally been maintained since 2016, and his employment terms have not changed since 2021 (other than increases in his salary due to the linkage to the consumer price index); (d) the fact that, according to the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement, the next review of the CEO’s employment terms will take place in 2027; (e) the desire to more closely link the CEO’s compensation and performance targets, which are generally aligned with the Company’s business strategy and the interests of its shareholders, with the specific responsibilities and duties to be performed by the CEO; (f) the unique position of the Company following the increased demand for its products resulting from recent conflicts requiring strong, experienced and stable leadership to face current and future challenges and help the Company realize its potential; and (g) the fact

that Mr. Machlis has unique knowledge of the Company and its industry as well as the experience and background required for leading a global technological defense company, the mix of which is a valuable asset to the Company, and important for its future success.

The Compensation Committee and Board believe that it is critical for the Company to maintain a competitive compensation package for the Company’s President and CEO that will (i) be closely linked to the Company’s achievements; (ii) motivate superior performance; (iii) promote long-term retention; and (iv) provide fair compensation under the circumstances and create the proper incentives to continue leading the Company and keep growing its value.

Following such consideration, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement are consistent with the Amended Compensation Policy and align with the Company’s strategy.

As further described in Proposal 2 above, the Compensation Committee and Board have determined, taking into account investor and other feedback and analysis, that:

(i)a majority of the CEO's compensation should be variable, performance-based and at risk;

(ii)the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward long-term than short-term performance; and

(iii)the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward equity than cash.

Accordingly, under the Amended Employment Agreement, on an annual basis: 8

(i)approximately 80% of the estimated value of the CEO's compensation would be variable, performance-based and at risk;

(ii)over 50% of the estimated value of the CEO's compensation would be linked to long-term performance; and

(iii)over 50% of the estimated value of the CEO's compensation would be provided in options, with over a third of the options being performance-based.

The following are the material amendments proposed pursuant to the Amended Employment Agreement of Mr. Machlis as the President and CEO of the Company:

Monthly Base Salary: Under the Current Employment Agreement, Mr. Machlis is entitled, beginning with his salary for April 2021, to a gross monthly salary of two hundred forty-three thousand shekels (NIS 243,000) (equal to approximately sixty-six thousand dollars ($66,000)), adjusted to reflect increase in the CPI published on March 15, 2021 in comparison to the CPI published on January 15, 2021. Thereafter, the salary is updated once every 12-months, with the first update made with respect to his salary for the months of April 2022, in accordance with the increase in the CPI, provided that, unless otherwise may be permitted under any future compensation policy, the Compensation Committee has approved, prior to any such update, that the update complies with the applicable compensation policy.

Under the Amended Employment Agreement, Mr. Machlis would be entitled, beginning with his salary for September 2024, to a gross monthly salary of three hundred thousand shekels (NIS 300,000) (equal to approximately seventy-nine thousand dollars ($79,000)), adjusted to reflect increase in the CPI published on September 15, 2024, in comparison to the CPI published on January 15, 2024. Thereafter, the salary will be updated once every 12-months, with the first update to be made with respect to his salary for the month of September 2025, in accordance with the increase in the CPI, provided that, unless otherwise may be permitted under any future compensation policy, the Compensation Committee has approved, prior to any such update, that the update complies with the applicable compensation policy.

8 For the purpose of calculating the estimated value: (i) the cost of salary component of the CEO is an estimation based on the revised "Monthly Base Salary" provided in the Amended Employment Agreement as described below, and an addition of 40% of the annual salary for benefits, but not taking into account CPI increases; (ii) the value of the annual bonus is based on the maximum $2,000,000; and (iii) the annual value of the equity-based compensation is based on the annual value of options granted to the CEO in 2021 ($870,000) in addition to the estimated annual value of the New Options and Performance-Based Options proposed to be granted as set forth below.

Annual Bonus: The Current Employment Agreement provides that subject to the precondition set forth in the Company's compensation policy (as further described under Proposal 2 above), Mr. Machlis will be entitled to an annual cash bonus for each calendar year, starting with calendar year 2021, in an amount equal to the aggregate of (i) zero point four percent (0.4%) of the Company’s non-GAAP Net Profit attributable to shareholders (“Non-GAAP Net Profit”) as reflected in Elbit Systems’ annual financial results for the relevant fiscal year, and (ii) in case both the Operating Cash Flow Goal and the Operating Cash Flow are positive – zero point one percent (0.1%) of the Company’s Non-GAAP Net Profit multiplied by the Operating Cash Flow Factor, with a ceiling amount for an annual bonus payable to Mr. Machlis of two million dollars ($2,000,000).9

The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the existing annual bonus structure is efficient and properly incentivizes the Company's CEO to achieve excellence. Following feedback from our investors and from proxy advisory firms, the Compensation Committee and Board concluded that it is advisable to maintain the existing annual bonus provisions relating to the CEO, and not to increase the ceiling of the CEO annual bonus amount, although such ceiling has not been increased since 2021. The Compensation Committee and Board believe the main growth in the CEO's compensation should be in the long-term component, which is significantly lower than peer group companies and which, if augmented, would increase alignment with shareholder interests.

Special Bonus: Under the Current Employment Agreement, the grant of a special bonus to Mr. Machlis is subject, among other limitations, to the condition that the Variable Compensation of the CEO may not exceed, on an annual basis, the aggregate of the ceiling for the CEO’s annual bonus and a fixed one million eight hundred thousand dollars ($1,800,000, reflecting the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount in the Previous Compensation Policy). In order to align with the Amended Compensation Policy, such condition is updated in the Amended Employment Agreement so that the Variable Compensation of the CEO may not exceed the aggregate of the Maximum CEO's Annual Bonus and the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount, as such terms are defined in the Company’s applicable compensation policy then in force.

Equity-Based Compensation: As further explained under Proposal 2 above, the Compensation Committee and Board have determined that the CEO's compensation should be more heavily weighted toward long-term than short-term performance and should be more heavily weighted toward equity than cash. Accordingly, most of the increase in the CEO's compensation as provided in the Amended Employment Agreement compared to the Current Employment Agreement is in the form of options, out of which over a third are performance-based, all of which is at risk.

In 2021, Mr. Machlis was granted one hundred fifty thousand (150,000) options to purchase Shares of the Company under the 2018 Equity Plan (the “2021 Options”) following approval of the Current Employment Agreement at the General Meeting of Shareholders held on April 7, 2021. No additional options have been granted to Mr. Machlis since such time.

Allocation of New Options

Under the Amended Employment Agreement, Mr. Machlis would be entitled, subject to approvals required by law and the Company’s compensation policy, to a grant of options to purchase Shares of the Company under the 2018 Equity Plan (the “New Options”). This grant of New Options was approved by the Board on August 13, 2024, following recommendation of the Compensation Committee, and is subject to the approval of an amended compensation policy that allows for such grant. The principal terms of the grant are as follows:

Grant Date - In accordance with the Amended Compensation Policy and 2018 Equity Plan, the grant date of the New Options (in this section - the “Grant Date”) will be the later of (i) the Date of the Board Resolution; (ii) the first trading day after a period of 30 days from the filing of the 2018 Equity Plan for approval with the ITA has lapsed; and (iii) the date on which the required corporate approvals were obtained and, where applicable, other conditions set by the Board were met.

According to the Board’s determination in accordance with its authority under the 2018 Equity Plan, the Date of the Board Resolution of the New Options is September 19, 2024.

9 According to the Current Employment Agreement, the “Operating Cash Flow Factor” is defined as the amount of net cash provided by operating activities (the “Operating Cash Flow”) as reflected in the Company’s annual financial results for the relevant fiscal year (the “Actual Operating Cash Flow”), divided by the Operating Cash Flow in Elbit Systems’ annual budget as approved by the Board for such fiscal year (the “Operating Cash Flow Goal”).

Number of Options and Value of Benefit – The grant of New Options will consist of two hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) options, provided that pursuant to the Amended Compensation Policy, the aggregate benefit embedded in the New Options, calculated in accordance with an acceptable valuation method (such as the Monte Carlo, Black-Scholes or Binominal options pricing models) at the date of grant, together with the applicable portion of the 2021 Options, shall not exceed, on an annual basis, the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount.10 In case such value exceeds the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount, the number of New Options granted will be the maximum amount that may be granted without exceeding such ceiling.

According to a valuation conducted for estimation purposes by an external evaluator in accordance with the Binominal valuation method, the value embedded in the New Options had they been granted on August 4, 2024 (which is a recent hypothetical date) is approximately nine dollars and seventy-eight cents ($9.78) per year, for a period of 51 months.

This valuation is based on a financial model that determines the accounting value of an option grant, and does not represent the actual economic gain to Mr. Machlis. As explained above, the actual value may change depending on various parameters, and therefore cannot be determined at this time.

Type - The New Options are exercisable using a “Net-Exercise Mechanism.” The New Options will be granted pursuant to the terms of the capital gains tax route under Section 102 of The Israeli Income Tax Ordinance [New Version], 1961, as amended from time to time (the “Ordinance”), which includes, among other things, a requirement that the options and the underlying Shares be held by a trustee with lock-up conditions as set forth in the Ordinance.

Exercise Price - In accordance with the provisions of the Amended Compensation Policy and the 2018 Equity Plan, the exercise price of a New Option will be the greater of (a) the average of the closing prices of Company shares on the TASE during the period of thirty (30) trading days prior to the Date of the Board Resolution and (b) the closing price of Company shares on the TASE on the last trading day preceding the Date of the Board Resolution. The exercise price is denominated in dollars and calculated as set forth in the 2018 Equity Plan.

Vesting - Subject to continued employment of Mr. Machlis as defined in the 2018 Equity Plan, the New Options will vest over a four-year period: forty percent (40%) will vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date and the remaining sixty percent (60%) in two (2) tranches of thirty percent (30%) each will vest on the third and fourth anniversary of the Grant Date.

Expiry Date - In accordance with the 2018 Equity Plan, the expiry date of the New Options will be fifty-one (51) months after the Grant Date.

Other Terms - The Options are subject to the terms of the 2018 Equity Plan, which sets forth customary conditions such as adjustments for capital modifications (reverse stock split, stock split, etc.). The 2018 Equity Plan allows, subject to approvals by the Compensation Committee and Board, continued vesting and exercisability of the New Options, as well as post-termination exercise periods, in case of termination of employment not for cause, or as a result of death or disability. In addition, according to the Amended Compensation Policy, the Board may approve acceleration of the New Options in any of the following cases: (i) death, disability or medical condition; (ii) change of control resulting in the Company's shares no longer being listed on a stock exchange; and (iii) acceleration of the next unvested portion of options is permitted following termination of employment resulting from either: (a) a change of control of the Company; or (b) retirement, provided that no more than one (1) year of the option vesting period remains.

Allocation of Special Performance-Based Options

As mentioned under Proposal 2 of this Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee and Board have considered the evolving nature of the Company into a larger and more substantial company in the global defense industry, and the potential under current circumstances to accelerate growth and expand its position as a leading global supplier of advanced technologies to the defense market. To incentivize such performance, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that it would be appropriate to define an extraordinary strategic achievement that would have the potential to accelerate growth of the Company in an advanced technological field in the coming years, and to properly compensate the CEO for its attainment.

10 For the purpose of calculating the annual value, the total benefit value of the New Options is spread on a linear basis over the 51-month period of the New Options.

Accordingly, the Compensation Committee and Board have defined specific criteria for such an achievement (the details of which are commercially sensitive and therefore not further detailed herein), relating to the entry, within a period of two years from the Grant Date, into a strategic program with a customer, with a value of at least one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000), that includes research and development of a state of the art technology in an advanced and innovative field (the “Special Condition”). The Compensation Committee and Board further concluded that the nature of such special achievement and its potential benefit to the Company, as well as the extraordinary efforts required from the CEO in order to attain such accomplishment, justify a one-time special grant of performance-based options in accordance with the Amended Compensation Policy, that would also be aligned with shareholders’ interests.

Accordingly, under the Amended Employment Agreement, Mr. Machlis would be entitled, subject to required approvals under law and the Company’s compensation policy, to a grant of performance-based options under the 2018 Equity Plan, but the vesting of such options will be conditional upon the achievement of the Special Condition, as specified below. In case the Special Condition is not fulfilled by the second anniversary of the Grant Date (as defined below), the Performance-Based Options will expire.

It is clarified that as of the date hereof, the Special Condition has not been fulfilled and there is no guarantee that it will be fulfilled in the future. The aforementioned disclosure regarding the Special Condition is in no way a projection or an assumption that the Special Condition will be fulfilled.

This grant of Performance-Based Options, that include a special performance condition which is in addition to the performance on the share price inherent in an options grant, was approved by the Board on August 13, 2024, following recommendation of the Compensation Committee, and is also subject to the approval of an amended compensation policy that allows for such grant. The principal terms of the grant are as follows:

Number of Options and Value of Benefit – The grant of Performance Based Options will consist of one hundred and fifty thousand (150,000) options, provided that pursuant to the Amended Compensation Policy, the aggregate benefit embedded in the Performance-Based Options, calculated in accordance with an acceptable valuation method (such as the Monte Carlo, Black-Scholes or Binominal options pricing models), at the date of grant, together with the applicable portion of the 2021 Options and the New Options, shall not exceed, on an annual basis, the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount.11 In case the value exceeds the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount, the number of Performance-Based Options granted will be the maximum amount that may be granted without exceeding such ceiling.

For purposes of the Amended Compensation Policy, the value of the benefit embedded in the Performance-Based Options will be calculated as of the date of grant by an external evaluator in accordance with an acceptable valuation method (such as the Monte Carlo, Black-Scholes or Binominal options pricing models), taking into account among other factors, the additional risk related to the fulfillment of the Special Condition.12 According to a valuation conducted for estimation purposes by an external evaluator in accordance with the Binominal valuation method, the value embedded in the Performance-Based Options had they been granted on August 4, 2024 (which is a recent hypothetical date) is approximately four dollars and eighty-nine cents ($4.89) per year, for a period of 51 months.

Vesting – Subject to continued employment of Mr. Machlis as defined in the 2018 Equity Plan, the Performance-Based Options will vest as follows:

•forty percent (40%) of the Performance-Based Options will vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date, provided that on or prior to such date, the Special Condition has been fulfilled. In the event that the Special Condition is not fulfilled by such time, the Performance-Based Options will immediately expire.

11 For the purpose of calculating the annual value, the total benefit value of the Performance Based Options is spread on a linear basis over the 51 months period of the Performance Based Options. The Maximum CEO's Equity Amount for this purpose will be the amount following the one-time increase of the ceiling by up to $1 million, as described under Proposal 2 above.

12 Accounting standards require that the value of the benefit embedded in the Performance-Based Options be calculated differently for purposes of the Company’s financial statements.

If not expired:

•thirty percent (30%) of the Performance-Based Options will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date and

•thirty percent (30%) of the Performance-Based Options will vest on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date.

The provisions of Grant Date, Type, Exercise Price, Expiry Date, and Other Terms set forth above under “Allocation of New Options” above shall apply with respect to the Performance-Based Options.

As further explained in Proposal 2 above, under the "Net Exercise Mechanism" provided in the 2018 Equity Plan, the number of shares to be issued to Mr. Machlis upon the exercise of the New Options and Performance-Based Options will reflect only the benefit amount embedded in such options, that is the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares underlying such options over their exercise price, calculated based on the date of exercise.

As of August 1, 2024, 561,821 options were outstanding and 864,000 options remained available for issuance under the 2018 Equity Plan, and 1,611,650 options were outstanding and 363,950 options remained available for issuance under the 2022 Employees Incentive Plan. The estimated dilution rate considering all outstanding shares and options granted and options available for grant, as of the Record Date, and the allocation to the CEO of 250,000 New Options and 150,000 Performance-Based Options, is approximately 7.1% without taking into account the Net Exercise Mechanism, under which the dilution rate is expected to be even lower.

Subject to the fulfillment of the aforementioned conditions, no additional approvals are required by the Company for the grants of the New Options or the Performance-Based Options.

The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the Amended Employment Agreement includes appropriate compensation for a leading president and CEO of a global technology company of our size, considering increased growth and complexity in managing the Company’s business in recent years. In light of Mr. Machlis’ key role in Company operation, the Compensation Committee and Board determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to approve the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement in order to retain Mr. Machlis as its President and CEO. The Compensation Committee and Board emphasized that during his tenure as President and CEO, Mr. Machlis has successfully led the Company and strengthened its business operations and financial condition and that, considering, among other things, the size of the Company, the scope, complexity and nature of its operations, the complexity of the office and the degree of responsibility imposed on the President and CEO, the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement are beneficial to the Company, reasonable under the circumstances and aligned with the Company’s goals as set forth in the Amended Compensation Policy.

Unlike the “say-on-pay” votes found in some proxy statements for U.S. domestic companies, the shareholder vote on this Proposal is binding under Israeli law and not merely advisory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Companies Law allows our Compensation Committee, followed by our Board, to nonetheless approve the Proposal despite the opposition of shareholders, in special circumstances, provided that the Compensation Committee and Board have determined, based on detailed reasoning and a re-evaluation of the matter, including the opposition of shareholders.

At the Meeting, the Board will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

“RESOLVED, that the Amended Employment Agreement of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Bezhalel Machlis, be approved, subject to approval of an amended compensation policy that would align with the Amended Employment Agreement.”

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR approval of this resolution.

Exhibit “A” COMPENSATION POLICY ELBIT SYSTEMS LTD. Compensation Policy for Executive Officers and Directors (As Approved on April 7, 2021________, 2024)

A - 2 Table of Contents Page Overview and Objectives A - 3 Compensation Structure and Instruments A - 5 Monthly Base Salary A - 5 Cash Bonuses A - 6 Equity-Based Compensation A - 9 Reduction of Variable Compensation A - 110 Retirement and Termination of Service Arrangements A - 110 Indemnification, Exemption and Insurance A - 121 Directors Compensation A - 121 Miscellaneous A - 121

A - 3 Overview and Objectives Introduction Elbit Systems Ltd. (“Elbit” or the “Company”) is an international high technology company with headquarters in Israel, engaged in a wide range of defense, homeland security and commercial programs throughout the world, operating businesses in Israel, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America. Approximately 75%Elbit is a global company and the majority of Elbit'sits revenues derive from international sales outside of Israel. Elbit's major customers are governmental agencies as well as major global companies engaged in the supply of defense, homeland security and commercial aviation systems to governmental agencies and platform manufacturers. Elbit's main competitors are international global companies based in Israel, the U.S. and Europe. This document (“Compensation Policy” or “Policy”), sets forth the Compensation Policy for Elbit's Executive Officers and Directors, in accordance with the requirements of the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”). For purposes of this Policy, “Executive Officers” shall mean Elbit’s President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Elbit’s Executive Vice Presidents (“EVPs”), who are “office holders” as such term is defined in Section 1 of the Companies Law, but excluding, unless otherwise expressly indicated herein, the members of Elbit's Board of Directors (the “Directors” and the “Board”, respectively). Appropriate and balanced compensation are key components of Elbit’s overall human capital strategy to attract, retain, reward and motivate highly skilled individuals to act in the best interest of the Company, including, its shareholders and other stakeholders and assist Elbit in reaching its business and financial long-term goals. In preparing this Compensation Policy, the Compensation Committee and the Board, using the assistance of external advisors, have taken into account, among other factors: • Elbit’s unique characteristics as a cCompany operating in the field of development, manufacturing and enhancement of defense and other high technology systems, and as a cCompany which is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, as well as on the TA-35 index on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange; • The qualities, skills, background, experience, business responsibilities and past performance of the current Executive Officers as well as the qualities, skills, background experience and other parameters that Elbit's deems appropriate for any new Executive Officer; • The terms of the employment agreements and arrangements with the Company's current Executive Officers. This Compensation Policy shall apply to compensation agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company with an Executive Officer or a Director following approval of the Policy as required by the Companies Law and will continue to be in effect until the Policy’s expiration in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law. This Compensation Policy is not intended to affect current agreements nor affect obligatingobligatory customary practices (if applicable) between the Company and its Executive Officers or Directors as such may exist prior to the approval of this Compensation Policy. The Compensation Committee and the Board shall periodically review and reassess the adequacy of this Policy to ensure that its provisions and implementation are aligned with Elbit’s compensation philosophy and applicable regulatory requirements. Elbit’s Values Elbit is an international high technology company engaged in a wide range of programs throughout the world, aspiring to be a world leading source of innovative technology-based systems for diverse defense and commercial applications. Throughout the course of its business, Elbit follows its guiding values of integrity, excellence, innovation, leadership, teamwork and synergy. These values enable Elbit to foster an environment that nurtures innovation,

A - 4 creativity and technological leadership, enabling Elbit to thrive as a leading company in its areas of operation, developing and manufacturing best in class systems and maintaining customer satisfaction. Elbit’s values caused Elbit to emphasize the welfare of its employees and their importance to Elbit’s success, including its Executive Officers, since the Executive Officers are tasked with leading the implementation of the Company’s strategy and driving its day-to-day behavior and decisions. Elbit believes that excellent people are the key to achieving its vision and therefore employs a world-class, motivated, team-spirited workforce, creating a dynamic atmosphere in which employees may flourish and reach their highest potential. Compensation Objectives The Compensation Policy, as approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board, is a reflection of the long- time practices and strategy of Elbit and is intended to align with Elbit’s strategy to attract, motivate and retain highly experiencedcapable personnel who will provide leadership for lead the successful execution of Elbit’s successstrategy and act in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders, while also supporting a performance culture that is based on merit, differentiates and rewards excellent performance, while recognizing Elbit’s core values, including the value of integrity and ethics of Elbit’s management personnel. To that end, this Policy is designed, among other purposes: • To promote the attraction, retention and motivation of Executive Officers: Elbit competes with localboth Israeli based and global companies to attract and retain highly skilled professionals with the necessary capabilities to promote innovation, creativity, manage its complex business and worldwide operations and execute its strategy. To that end, this Policy aims to provide Elbit’s Executive Officers with a structured compensation package, including competitive salaries, performance-motivating cash and equity-based incentive programs and benefits, in order to promote retention and provide each Executive Officer with motivation to advance within the organization; • To incentivize superior individual excellence: Elbit aims to incentivize its Executive Officers by creating a strong link between their compensation and performance. Therefore, a portion of the total compensation package provided to Elbit’s Executive Officers is based on measures that reflect Elbit’s short and long-term goals and performance, as well as the Executive Officer’s individual performance and the impact on the Company's value creation. In order to strengthen suchthe link between compensation and performance, Elbit defines clear, measurable quantitative and qualitative objectives that, together, are designed to improve Company results; • To align the interests of the Executive Officers with the long-term performance of the Company: In order to motivate Executive Officers to focus on the long-term objectives and performance of the Company, a portion of the compensation package granted to Elbit’s Executive Officers is awarded in the form of equity-based compensation, thus creating a direct link between the interests of Executive Officers and the long-term performance of the Companyvalue creation and total returns of the Company’s shareholders; and • To provide a risk management tool: This Policy is structured in a manner that creates an incentive to deliver high performance (over both the short and long-term) while taking into account Elbit’s risk management philosophy and avoiding undue pressure to take excessive risks, thus encouraging a balanced and effective risk taking approach. Elbit’s compensation elements are designed to reduce incentives to expose the Company to imprudent risks that may harm Elbit or its shareholders in the short and long-term. This is achieved by using tools such as (i) placing maximum thresholds on eligibility for short and long-term incentives; (ii) using compensation vehicles with diverse performance measures; (iii) granting equity-based compensation that has long-term vesting schedules, which tie the awards to a longer performance cycle; and (iv) requiring clawback of compensation payments in certain circumstances or as required by applicable regulation. The Compensation Policy is intended to provide a framework which is broad enough to allow the Compensation Committee, the Board and the CEO, as applicable, to determine a personal compensation plan or a certain compensation component for each of Elbit’s Executive Officers, in light of the specific circumstances and the requirements of the Company, which would be in the best interests of the Company, its employees, its shareholders and other stakeholders, all in accordance with Elbit’s long-term strategy as provided in this Compensation Policy.

A - 5 Compensation Structure and Instruments Compensation instruments under this Compensation Policy may include the following: • Monthly base salary; • Benefits; • Cash bonuses; • Equity-based compensation; and • Retirement and termination of service arrangements. Variable Compensation Ratio Elbit aims to balance the mix of “Fixed Compensation” (comprised of Base Salary and Benefits, on an annual basis) and “Variable Compensation” (comprised of cash bonuses and equity-based compensation) in order to, among other things, appropriately incentivize Executive Officers to meet Elbit’s short and long-term goals while taking into consideration Elbit’s need to manage a variety of business risks. The pay mix ratio between the Fixed Compensation and Variable Compensation is such that the total Variable Compensation of each Executive Officer shall not exceed 8085% of the total compensation package of such Executive Officer, on an annual basis. This pay mix ratio supports the core principles of Elbit's compensation philosophy of compensating for performance and aligning Executive Officers’ interests with those of the Company and its shareholders. The above pay mix ratio may vary somewhat in any given calendar year due to fluctuations in the NIS/USD exchange rate. The Compensation Committee and Board believe that such ratio expresses the appropriate compensation mix in the event that all performance objectives are achieved and assumes that all compensation elements are granted with respect to a given year. Intra-Company Compensation Ratio In the process of formulating this Policy, Elbit’s Compensation Committee and the Board have examined the ratio between employer costs associated with the engagement of the Executive Officers and Directors and the average and median employer costs associated with the engagement of the other employees of Elbit, as required pursuant to the Companies Law, (the “Ratio”). The Compensation Committee and Board believe that the current Ratio does not adversely impact the work environment in Elbit. The possible ramifications of the Ratio in the work environment of Elbit will continue to be examined from time to time in order to ensure that levels of executive compensation, as compared to that for the overall workforce, will not have a negative impact on work relations in Elbit. Monthly Base Salary The monthly base salary (“Monthly Base Salary”) provides stable compensation to Executive Officers, allowing Elbit to attract and retain competent executive talent and maintainsecure continuity of a stable management team. Monthly Base Salaries vary among Executive Officers, and are individually determined taking into account the educational background, prior vocational experience, qualifications, role, business responsibilities and the past performance of the Executive Officer. The maximum Monthly Base Salary paid to Elbit's Executive Officers shall not exceed: (a) With respect to the CEO – 250300,000 NIS, linked to the increase in the Israeli Consumer Price Index (the “CPI”); and (b) With respect to an EVP – 180200,000 NIS, linked to the CPI.

A - 6 Benefits The following benefits may be granted to Elbit’s Executive Officers (“Benefits”), in order, among other things, to comply with legal requirements and to attract, motivate and retain high level professionals: • Vacation days in accordance with market practice and applicable law; • Sick days in accordance with market practice and applicable law; • Convalescence pay according to applicable law; • Monthly remuneration for a study fund, as allowed by applicable tax law and with reference to Elbit’s common practices as well as common market practice; • Contribution by Elbit on behalf of the Executive Officer to an insurance policy or a pension fund, as allowed by applicable tax law and with reference to Elbit’s policies and procedures and common market practice; • Contribution by Elbit on behalf of the Executive Officer towards work disability insurance, as allowed by applicable tax law and with reference to Elbit’s policies and procedures and common market practice; • Car, communication and other customary Benefits, including their gross-up for tax purposes; and • Reimbursement for work-related expenses incurred as part of their activities, including without limitations, meeting participation expenses, travel expenses, including a daily stipend when traveling and accommodation expenses, provided, however, that such reimbursement shall be determined in accordance with Elbit’s policies and procedures. Elbit may provide advance payments to its Executive Officers in connection with work-related expenses. Cash Bonuses Annual Bonuses General Elbit has implemented an annual pay-for-performance bonus plan (“Annual Bonus”) based on quantitative and qualitative criteria which has proved to be efficienteffective in incentivizing its executives and employees. The Annual Bonus component aims to align and unify Elbit’s Executive Officers in reaching Elbit’s short and long- term goals. Annual Bonuses are, therefore, a strictly pay-for-performance element, as payout eligibility and levels are determined based on financial, business and operational results, as well as individual performance. Elbit’s policy is to allow Annual Bonuses, which may be awarded to an Executive Officer, for each fiscal year, upon the attainment of pre-set periodical objectives and personal targets taking into consideration the Executive Officer’s educational background, prior vocational experience, qualifications, role, business responsibilities and performance. The Annual Bonuses objectives are intended to drive motivation and performance continuously higher, while consideringbut remaining subject to a maximum payout ceiling which is intended to provideserve as a risk management tool. Pre-Conditions for the Payment of Annual Bonus The payment of the Annual Bonus to Executive Officers for any particular fiscal year shall be subject to the fulfillment (in addition to the fulfillment of the applicable objectives set forth below as the case may be) of any one of the following criteria (“Awarding Criteria”): (a) that the Non-GAAP Net Profit attributable to shareholders (“Non-GAAP Net Profit”) of Elbit for that fiscal year as reflected in Elbit’s published full-year financial results (“Annual Financial Results”) is at least 80% of Elbit's Non-GAAP Net Profit for the preceding fiscal year; or (b) that Elbit's Non-GAAP Net Profit for that fiscal year is at least 80% of the Non-GAAP Net Profit in Elbit's annual budget as approved by the Board for such fiscal year.

A - 7 Annual Bonus - CEO The Compensation Committee and the Board have determined that with respect to the CEO, the most appropriate quantitative objectives, which most align the interests of the CEO with the long-term performance of the Company, are the financial objectives of Non-GAAP Net Profit and Operating Cash Flow. Accordingly, subject to the Company reaching the Awarding Criteria the CEO will be awarded an Annual Bonus in an amount equal to the following (“CEO's Annual Bonus”), but not exceeding $2,000,000 (“Maximum CEO’s Annual Bonus”): (i) 0.4% of Elbit’s Non-GAAP Net Profit as reflected in Elbit’s Annual Financial Results for the relevant fiscal year, plus • if both the Operating Cash Flow Goal and the Actual Operating Cash Flow (as both terms are defined below) are positive - 0.1% of the Non-GAAP Net Profit as reflected in Elbit’s Annual Financial Results for the relevant fiscal year, multiplied by the Operating Cash Flow Factor (as defined below). The Operating Cash Flow Factor shall mean the amount of net cash provided by operating activities (“Operating Cash Flow”) as reflected in Elbit’s Annual Financial Results for the relevant fiscal year (“Actual Operating Cash Flow”), divided by the Operating Cash Flow in Elbit's annual budget as approved by the Board for such fiscal year (“Operating Cash Flow Goal”). The CEO's Annual Bonus amount shall be calculated on the date that the Board approves the applicable Annual Financial Results (“Annual Determination Date”). Upon approval by the Board of the financial results for the first half of an applicable fiscal year (“Semi-Annual Financial Results”), Elbit may provide its CEO with an advance payment on account of the CEO's Annual Bonus for that respective year, in an amount which shall not exceed a sum equal to 0.4% of Elbit’s Non-GAAP Net Profit as reflected in Elbit’s Semi-Annual Financial Results (“CEO's Advance Payment”). In the event that on the Annual Determination Date the Compensation Committee determines that the paid CEO's Advance Payment exceeded the amount of the CEO's Annual Bonus for that fiscal year, the CEO shall return the excess amount within thirty (30) days from the Annual Determination Date. Annual Bonus - EVPs Elbit’s EVPs Annual Bonuses shall be based on achievement of personal performance measures determined for each EVP. The personal performance measures will be recommended by the CEO on the basis of the following objectives and be approved by the Compensation Committee and the Board: • Financial Oobjectives such as, without limitation, revenue, profit, sales, cash flow, order backlog and generation of additional value, which shall account for 50% - 100% of the performance measurements. • Business, operating and other objectives such as, without limitation, initiation of new markets, growth of certain business fields, facilitation of transactions, acquisitions/sales of business operations, human resources development, managing legal proceedings and, customer satisfaction, ESG and compliance which shall account for up to 50% of the performance measurements. As an exception to the aforementioned guidelines, in cases of EVPs at the Company’s headquarters, the financial objectives may account for 25%-100%, and the business, operating and other objectives may account for up to 75%. For each of the EVPs the weight of the objectives detailed above shall total 100%.

A - 8 In circumstances determined by the Compensation Committee and the Board to be special (e.g., in case of regulatory changes or significant changes in Elbit’s business environment), the Compensation Committee and the Board may modify the objectives and/or their relative weights during the fiscal year. Simultaneously with the determination of the personal objectives and their respective weight for each EVP, the Compensation Committee and the Board, based on the recommendations of the CEO, shall also set forth the amount that will be paid to the respective EVP for achieving 100% of his or hers performance measures (“EVP's Target Annual Bonus”). On the Annual Determination Date, the Annual Bonus payable to each EVP will be calculated by multiplying the score of that EVP with respect to meeting his or her objectives for that year with his or her Target Annual Bonus. Subject to the Company reaching the Awarding Criteria, the amounts accruing from the above calculations, with respect to each EVP, shall be paid to the applicable EVP. The Company may pay to an EVP an Annual Bonus in an amount exceeding the EVP's Target Annual Bonus in case the EVP's achievement exceeds 100% of his or hers performance measures for that fiscal year provided however that the maximum Annual Bonus amount payable to an EVP will not exceed an amount equal to nine (9) Monthly Base Salaries (“EVP's Maximum Annual Bonus”). Upon approval by the Board of the Semi-Annual Financial Results, Elbit may provide the EVPs with an advance payment on account of their Annual Bonuses, which shall be calculated by calculating the score of that EVP with respect to meeting his or her objectives on an half year basis and provided that the amount paid shall not exceed a sum equal to 50% of the respective Target Annual Bonus (“EVP's Advance Payment”). In the event that on the Annual Determination Date the Compensation Committee determines that any paid EVP's Advance Payment exceeded the amount of the EVP's Annual Bonus for that fiscal year, the respective EVP shall return the excess amount within thirty (30) days from the Annual Determination Date. Pro Rata Annual Bonus Payments Should the employment of an Executive Officer terminate prior to the end of a fiscal year, the Company may pay such Executive Officer his or her pro rata share of that year’s Annual Bonus, based on the period such Executive Officer was employed by the Company. Managerial Evaluation Bonus Elbit may grant an EVP an annual managerial evaluation bonus in an amount of up to three (3) Monthly Base Salaries (“Managerial Evaluation Bonus”). Managerial Evaluation Bonuses will be awarded based on the recommendation of the CEO and the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Board on the grounds, among others, of non-financial qualitative individual performance measures, and taking into consideration the EVP's long-term contribution to the Company and his or her performance during the fiscal year for which such Managerial Evaluation Bonus is granted. Managerial Evaluation Bonuses may be granted to EVPs in addition to their respective Annual Bonuses. Special Bonus In order to respond effectively to events or occurrences that may have a special positive impact on the Company and are the result of special efforts or achievements of an Executive Officer, Elbit may, with the approval of the Compensation Committee and the Board, grant its Executive Officers a special cash bonus as an award for special achievements (such as, but not limited to, in connection with securities offerings or generating extraordinary profit), based on quantitative and/or non-quantitative criteria which shall be determined by the Compensation Committee and Board (“Special Bonus”). The Special Bonus for an individual Executive Officer, shall not exceed the higher of (i) 1% of the added value generated to the Company in light of the Executive Officer’s contribution as reflected from a valuation conducted by the Company or (ii) 12 Monthly Base Salaries. A Special Bonus may be granted to Executive Officers in addition to an Annual Bonus and/or a Managerial Evaluation Bonus paid pursuant to this Compensation Policy, provided that on an annual basis (a) the aggregate amounts payable to an EVP as Annual Bonus, Managerial Evaluation Bonus and Special Bonus shall not exceed in the aggregate an amount equal to fifteen (15) Monthly

A - 9 Base Salaries and (b) the Variable Compensation of the CEO shall not exceed the aggregate of the Maximum CEO’s Annual Bonus and the Maximum CEO’s Equity Amount (as defined below). In addition, a Special Bonus to the CEO based on non-quantitative criteria shall not exceed (1) on an annual basis, an amount equal to the higher of three Monthly Base Salaries or 25% of the Variable Compensation and (2) for every period of three calendar years, beginning in 2021, an aggregate amount equal to twelve Monthly Base Salaries.
