| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. The Class B Ordinary Shares are convertible for the Issuer's Class A Ordinary Shares as described under the heading "Description of Securities--Founder Shares" in the Issuer's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-255072) (the "Registration Statement") and have no expiration date. |
| 2. ION Holdings 3, LP ("ION 3 LP") is the record holder of the ordinary shares. As the general partner of ION 3 LP, ION Acquisition Corp GP Ltd. ("ION GP") has voting and investment discretion with respect to the ordinary shares held by ION 3 LP. An investment committee comprised of five individuals, including Mr. Gilad Shany, makes voting and investment decisions in the ordinary shares indirectly owned by ION GP. Due to his ownership stake in ION GP, Mr. Shany shares pecuniary interest with ION GP and ION 3 LP in the ordinary shares to the extent of his economic interest therein. However, none of the ION GP investment committee's members, including Mr. Shany, is deemed a beneficial owner of the ordinary shares held by ION 3 LP under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, due to the approval standard for committee action. Mr. Shany thus disclaims beneficial ownership of the ordinary shares held by ION 3 LP, other than to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein. |
