CELLECT BIOTECHNOLOGY
MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
enclosed proxy is being solicited by the board of directors (the "Board of Directors") of Cellect Biotechnology
Ltd. (the "Company") for use at the Company's Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (the
"Meeting") to be held on April 30, 2017, at 11:00 A.M. (Israel time), or at any adjournment or postponement
thereof. Upon the receipt of a properly executed proxy in the form enclosed, the persons named as proxies therein will vote the
ordinary shares, no par value, of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares") and the Ordinary Shares associated with
each ADS in accordance with the directions of the shareholders and the ADS holders executing the proxy. In the absence of such
directions, and except as otherwise mentioned in this Proxy Statement, the Ordinary Shares and the ADS will be voted in favor of
each of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.
or more shareholders present, personally or by proxy, holding not less than thirty three percent (33%) of the Company's outstanding
Ordinary Shares, including the ADSs, shall constitute a quorum for the Meeting. If within half an hour from the time the Meeting
is convened a quorum is not present, the Meeting shall stand adjourned until April 7, 2017, at the same time as the Meeting (Israel
time). If a quorum is not present at the adjourned Meeting within half an hour from the time appointed for such adjourned Meeting,
any number of shareholders present personally or by proxy shall be deemed a quorum, and shall be entitled to deliberate and to
resolve in respect of the matters for which the Meeting was convened. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as Ordinary
Shares present for the purpose of determining a quorum. Broker non-votes, as defined below, are counted in determining if a Quorum
Broker non-votes occur
when a beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding
the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed "non-routine." Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial
owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner
does not provide voting instructions, the broker or nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered
to be "routine," but not with respect to "non-routine" matters. In the event that a broker,
bank, or other agent indicates on a proxy that it does not have discretionary authority to vote certain shares on a non-routine
proposal, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes. Because Proposals 3, 4, 5 and 6 in this Proxy Statement
are non-routine proposals, your broker, bank or other agent will not be entitled to vote on these proposals without your instructions.
However, since proposal 2 is deemed a routine proposal, your broker, bank or other agents will be entitled to vote on it without
your instruction. No vote is required for Proposal No. 1.
Pursuant to the Israeli
Companies Law of 1999 (the "Companies Law"), approval of Proposals 2, 3, and 4 below requires the affirmative
vote of a majority of the Ordinary Shares, including the ADSs, voting on the matter.
to the Companies Law, approval of Proposals 5 and 6 below requires the affirmative vote of majority of the Ordinary Shares, including
the ADSs, present and voting on the matter, provided that either (i) such a majority includes at least the majority of the votes
of shareholders who (a) are not controlling shareholders of the Company and (b) do not have a personal interest in the approval
of the respective proposal (abstentions will not be taken into account); or (ii) the total number of votes against such proposal
among the shareholders mentioned in clause (i) above does not exceed two percent (2%) of the total voting rights in the Company.
For this purpose, "personal
interest" is defined under the Companies Law as: (1) a shareholder's personal interest in the approval of an act or
a transaction of the Company, including (i) the personal interest of any of his or her relatives (which includes for these purposes
a shareholder's spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, descendants, and spouse's descendants, siblings, and parents,
and the spouse of any of the foregoing); (ii) a personal interest of a corporation in which a shareholder or any of his/her aforementioned
relatives serve as a director or the chief executive officer, owns at least 5% of its issued share capital or its voting rights
or has the right to appoint a director or chief executive officer; and (iii) a personal interest of an individual voting via a
power of attorney given by a third party (even if the empowering shareholder has no personal interest), and the vote of an attorney-in-fact
shall be considered a personal interest vote if the empowering shareholder has a personal interest, and all with no regard as to
whether the attorney-in-fact has voting discretion or not, but (2) excludes a personal interest arising solely from the fact of
holding shares in the Company.
Please note that you
are required to indicate on the proxy card with respect to Proposals 5 and 6 whether or not you are a controlling shareholder of
the Company, or acting on its behalf, and whether you have a personal interest in the approval of the proposal as provided above.
If you fail to indicate so on the proxy card, your vote will not be counted with respect to the Proposals 5 and 6, for which you
failed to provide notification.
