(b) On May 29, 2024, Payoneer Global Inc. (the “Company”) announced that Arnon Kraft is expected to depart as Chief Operating Officer of the Company, on June 30, 2024 (the “Transition Date”).

In connection with Mr. Kraft’s departure from the Company, Payoneer Research and Development Ltd. and Mr. Kraft entered into a Separation Agreement dated May 27, 2024 (the “Separation Agreement”). The Separation Agreement provides that Mr. Kraft will cease to serve as Chief Operating Officer on the Transition Date. Mr. Kraft will continue to be employed as a non-executive employee through the Departure Date to support transition activities related to his role as Chief Operating Officer and/or the Operations department teams during the first three months of such period, and then to be reasonably available to assist on matters relating to areas of his work from time to time through the Departure Date.

The Separation Agreement provides for (i) salary continuation payments through the Departure Date and eligibility for seventy-five percent of his 2024 target annual bonus with respect to 2024; (ii) participation in benefit plans through the Departure Date, (iii) payment of the value of any accrued but unused vacation days up until and including the Transition Date, and (iv) continued vesting of his equity awards through the Departure Date. The foregoing payments and benefits are contingent upon Mr. Kraft’s release of claims in favor of the Company and its subsidiaries and compliance with certain restrictive covenants, including non-compete covenants for a period of 6 months following the Departure Date and non-solicitation covenants for a period of 12 months following the Departure Date.
