EXPLANATORY NOTE
On March 28, 2018, Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ:WIX) (the “Company”) announced that it intends to file a motion on March 29, 2018, seeking court approval in Israel to authorize the Company to repurchase up to $80 million of its ordinary shares from time to time, over a term commencing upon and subject to the court’s approval of the motion and ending on December 31, 2018. In accordance with Israeli law, the Company must receive approval from the District Court prior to the implementation of any shareholder distribution program.
Notwithstanding the receipt of court approval, if and when obtained, the Israeli court approval provides the company with the right to repurchase its shares, but does not require the company to acquire any or a specific number of ordinary shares. Our Board of Directors has the authority to determine if and when to implement any share repurchase program, including without limitation the number of shares to repurchase, if any, and the timing of such repurchases. Share repurchases may take place in open market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors our Board of Directors deems appropriate. Our Board of Directors may also, if it implements a share repurchase, suspend and/or discontinue the program at any time, in its sole discretion. All share repurchases will be made in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations.
The Company expects the District Court to take approximately 45-60 days to reach a decision. The Company will update the shareholders if and when court approval is obtained and if and when its Board of Directors elects to implement a share repurchase program.
