On December 21, 2017, Wize Pharma, Inc.

(“Rimon Gold”) entered into on March 20, 2016 (as amended on March 30, 2016 and as modified by the 2017 Loan Agreement (as defined below), the “2016 Loan Agreement”) whereby Rimon Gold extended a loan in the principal amount of NIS 2 million, which bears interest at an annual rate of 4% (the “2016 Loan”), and (ii) the convertible loan agreement (the “2017 Loan Agreement”) between Wize Israel, on the one hand, and Ridge Valley Corporation (“Ridge”), Rimon Gold and Shimshon Fisher (collectively, the “2017 Lenders”), on the other hand, originally entered into between Wize Israel and Ridge on January 12, 2017 and subsequently partially assigned to Rimon Gold and Shimshon Fisher, whereby each of the 2017 Lenders extended a loan in the principal amount of NIS 1 million and the aggregate principal amount of NIS 3 million, which bears interest at an annual rate of 4% (collectively, the “2017 Loan”, and together with the 2016 Loan, the “Loans”). As previously disclosed, the 2016 Loan Agreement grants to Rimon Gold a right to participate, up to NIS 3 million, in future financings by the Company at a price per Company share of NIS 0.21 for a period of 18 months following conversion (the “2016 Future Investment Right”). Also as previously disclosed, the 2017 Loan Agreement grants to the 2017 Lenders a right to make investments in the Company in an amount up to NIS 1.50 for each NIS 1.00 of their respective amount loaned under the 2017 Loan Agreement at a price per Company share equal to 120% of the 2017 Loan conversion price for a period of 18 months following conversion (the “2017 Future Investment Right” and, together with the 2016 Future Investment Right, the “Future Investment Rights”).
Pursuant to the Loan Amendment, (i) the maturity date of the Loans was extended from December 31, 2017 to December 31, 2018; (ii) the exercise period of the 2016 Future Investment Right was amended so that it shall expire on June 30, 2019; (iii) the exercise period of the 2017 Future Investment Right was amended so that it shall expire, without the need to first convert the 2017 Loan, on June 30, 2019; and (iv) the below terms of the Loans were amended to be denominated in U.S. dollars instead of NIS:
