Employment Agreements

Menachem Shalom was appointed as a director on July 24, 2024. On December 16, 2024, the Company entered into a Consultancy Agreement with Menachem Shalom, the Company’s CEO, effective September 1, 2024. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Shalom is employed as Chief Executive Officer of the Company unless terminated pursuant to the terms of the agreement. During the initial term of the agreement (September 2024 through February 2025), Mr. Shalom is entitled to receive $20,000 monthly, with subsequent semi-annual $5,000 monthly increases effective March 2025 & September 2025.

On February 17, 2026, the Board of Directors, based on the recommendations and approval of the Compensation Committee, approved the terms of the terms and provisions of a Consulting Agreement between the Company and Billio Ltd., a company in Israel, to provide the services of Menachem Shalom as the principal executive officer of the Company. The consulting agreement terminates and supersedes the previous consulting agreements between the Company and affiliates of Mr. Shalom.

Given the performance of the Company within the last 15 months, the Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interest of the Company to provide Mr. Shalom with the amended consulting agreement and increased compensation. The Committee and the Board also authorized a cash bonus to Mr. Shalom in the amount of $250,000 for his past services to the Company. The Company, under the supervision and guidance of Mr. Shalom, has completed several acquisitions within the last 15 months, including without limitation, Star 26, Tiltan Software Engineering, Nimbus Drones and ITS.

Pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement, which is effective as of January 1, 2026, Mr. Shalom will continue to act as the chief executive officer of the Company while maintaining other executive roles in non-completing companies. For his services, Mr. Shalom will receive a base salary of $60,000 per month and target cash bonuses equal to 50% of base salary, subject to achievement of performance goals to be set by the Compensation Committee. He could also be entitled to additional milestone-based bonuses as determined by the Board. Mr. Shalom will receive 250,000 shares of common stock quarterly, subject to availability under approved incentive plans; if there is no plan or no availability, the quarterly amount of shares shall accrue until there is availability under an approved incentive plan. Such plan will also require shareholder approval pursuant to applicable Nasdaq rules. He will also be entitled to a relocation grant of $175,000 if Mr. Shalom relocates to the United States with his family. Mr. Shalom will also be entitled to all executive benefit plans including health and 401(k) plans and 30 business days per year vacation.

In the event Mr. Shalom is terminated for cause or is no longer employed by the Company for reason of death or disability, he shall only be entitled to his compensation at such time. If he is terminated by the Company without cause, he shall be entitled to 6 months of his base compensation, and if Mr. Shalom resigns, he shall be entitled to compensation for 12 months. If he is terminated for cause, Mr. Shalom shall not be entitled to any compensation.

The Consulting Agreement contains customary non-competition, non-solicitation and confidentiality provisions.

On April 8, 2025, the Board adopted the Company’s Policy for the Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation, in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5608 (“Clawback Policy”). The Clawback Policy provides for the reasonably prompt recovery by the Company of Incentive Based Compensation paid to a Covered Person (an executive officer and certain other specified senior employees), to the extent erroneously awarded, following an Accounting Restatement by the Company. The Clawback Policy applies to all Incentive Based Compensation paid after the date of adoption of the Clawback Policy.

On December 8, 2025, the Board appointed Morel Levi as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective as of December 8, 2025. Mr. Levi receives a salary of $7,500 per month for serving as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Levi did not receive any compensation from the Company during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
