Dear Shareholder,

You are cordially invited to attend an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of Lifeward Ltd. (“we,” the “Company” or “Lifeward”) to be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at the Company’s offices at 200 Donald Lynch Blvd., Marlborough, MA 01752, U.S.A. We intend to hold the Meeting in person. In the event it is not possible or advisable to hold the Meeting in person, we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the meeting solely by means of remote communication. As always, we encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Meeting.

The agenda for the Meeting is set forth in the accompanying Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders and Proxy Statement.

For the reasons set forth in the accompanying Proxy Statement, our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” Proposals 1-3 on the agenda for the Meeting.

We look forward to greeting personally those of you who are able to be present at the Meeting. However, whether or not you plan to attend the Meeting, it is important that your shares be represented. Accordingly, you are kindly requested to mark, sign, date and promptly mail the enclosed proxy card at your earliest convenience so that it will be received no later than 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on Monday, January 5, 2026, to be validly included in the tally of ordinary shares voted at the Meeting. Detailed proxy voting instructions are provided both in the Proxy Statement and on the proxy card.

If your ordinary shares are held in “street name,” that is, in a brokerage account or by a trustee or nominee, you should complete the voting instruction card that will be sent to you in order to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote your shares. You may also be able to provide such voting instructions via the Internet.

Thank you for your continued cooperation.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Joseph Turk

Joseph Turk

Chairman of the Board of Directors

NOTICE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

To the shareholders of Lifeward Ltd.:

Notice is hereby given that an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of Lifeward Ltd. (“we,” the “Company” or “Lifeward”) will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at the Company’s offices at 200 Donald Lynch Blvd., Marlborough, MA 01752, U.S.A. We intend to hold the Meeting in person. In the event it is not possible or advisable to hold the Meeting in person, we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the meeting solely by means of remote communication.

The agenda of the Meeting will be as follows:

The proposals above are described more fully in the accompanying Proxy Statement, which we urge you to read in its entirety.

For the reasons set forth in the accompanying Proxy Statement, our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” Proposals 1-3 on the agenda for the Meeting.

The affirmative vote of a simple majority of the votes cast by shareholders in person or by proxy at the Meeting on the proposal (an “Ordinary Majority”) is necessary for the approval of each of the Proposals.

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the record date of November 26, 2025 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof. You are cordially invited to attend the Meeting in person.

If you are unable to attend the Meeting in person you are requested to complete, date and sign the enclosed proxy card and return it promptly in the pre-addressed envelope provided so that it is received by us at least 24 hours before the Meeting or vote by telephone or over the Internet if your voting instruction form describes such voting methods. Your proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted if you return a later-dated proxy card or if you vote your shares in person at the Meeting if you are the record holder of the shares and can provide a copy of a certificate(s) evidencing your shares. If your shares are held in “street name,” meaning in the name of a bank, broker or other record holder, you must either direct the record holder of your shares on how to vote your shares or obtain a legal proxy from the record holder to vote the shares at the Meeting on behalf of the record holder as well as a statement from such record holder that it did not vote such shares on your behalf.

Further, if you are a beneficial owner whose shares are held of record by a broker, your broker has discretionary voting authority to vote your shares only on routine matters, which at our upcoming meeting will be Proposals 1, 2 and 3, even if the broker does not receive voting instructions from you. Your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote on non-routine matters without instructions from you, in which case a “broker non-vote”, if applicable, will occur and your shares will not be voted on these matters.

Joint holders of shares should note that, pursuant to our Articles of Association, the vote of the senior of joint holders of any share who votes such share, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other registered holder(s) of such share, with seniority determined by the order in which the names of the joint holders appear in our Register of Shareholders. For the appointment of a proxy to vote shares held by joint holders to be valid, the signature of the senior of the joint holders must appear on the proxy card.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

/s/ Joseph Turk
