VOTING PROCEDURE
Each shareholder of record of the common
shares, par value one eurocent (€0.01) per share, of the Company (“Common Shares”) at the close of business
on April 22, 2015 is entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Each Common Share held by a shareholder is entitled to
one vote for each matter to be voted on at the Meeting. The Articles of Association of the Company state that no action may be
taken at any general meeting of shareholders unless a quorum consisting of the holders of at least one-half of the outstanding
shares having voting rights are present at such meeting in person or represented by proxy. If a quorum is not present in person
or represented by proxy at any such meeting, a second general meeting shall be called to be held within two months, at which the
quorum requirements shall not apply. Each resolution proposed at the Meeting requires the affirmative vote of shareholders present
in person or represented by proxy and holding Common Shares amounting in the aggregate to at least a majority of the votes actually
cast with respect to such resolution. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not considered “actually cast” and are therefore
not taken into consideration in determining whether a majority has been achieved, but the Common Shares represented thereby are
considered present for purposes of the quorum requirements.
Shares cannot be voted at the Meeting
unless the owner of record is present in person or represented by proxy. The Company was incorporated in the Dutch Antilles, but
in October 2010, following the dissolution of the Dutch Antilles, the Company became a resident of the Island of Curaçao.
As required by the Company’s Articles of Association, general meetings of shareholders must be held in Curaçao. If
you are a shareholder of record, that is, your shares are registered directly in your name
with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, these proxy materials are being sent directly to you by our
transfer agent. The form of proxy card that has been mailed to you and that can be completed, signed and returned in the
envelope that was enclosed with it provides the primary means for authorizing the voting of your Common Shares without attending
the Meeting in person. If you are a shareholder of record and have lost or misplaced the proxy card mailed to you, you may print
a copy of the proxy card from http://www.sapiens.com/annual-meeting/proxy and may complete and sign that proxy card (indicating
the name of the record shareholder holding your Common Shares) and return it to the Company's Corporate Secretary via e-mail to
iris.c@sapiens.com or via fax to +972-3-790-2942. The Company reserves the right to require further identifying information from
you if you submit your proxy card in that manner.
If
your Common Shares are held in a brokerage account or by a trustee or nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of
shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you together with a voting instruction
form by the broker, trustee or nominee or an agent hired by the broker, trustee or nominee. Please follow the enclosed instructions
to direct your broker, trustee or nominee how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners may be able to utilize the control
number appearing on their voting instruction form to submit their voting instruction to their brokers, trustees or nominees by
other means, including via the internet (at www.proxyvote.com), if so indicated on their voting instruction form.
Alternatively, if you wish to attend the Meeting and vote in person, you must obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker,
trustee or nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Meeting.
If you own Common Shares that are traded
through the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”), you may only vote your shares in one of the following ways:
(a) By mail, e-mail or fax: sign and date a proxy card in the form filed by us on MAGNA, the distribution site of the Israeli
Securities Authority, at www.magna.isa.gov.il, which we refer to as MAGNA, on April 24, 2015 and attach to it a proof of ownership
certificate from the TASE Clearing House member through which the shares are held indicating that you were the beneficial owner
of the shares on the record date, and return the proxy card, along with the proof of ownership certificate, to us via mail, as
described in the instructions available on MAGNA, or via e-mail to iris.c@sapiens.com or via fax to +972-3-790-2942; or (b) In
person: attend the Meeting, where ballots will be provided. If you choose to vote in person at the Meeting, you must bring
the proof of ownership certificate from the TASE’s Clearing House member through which the shares are held, indicating that
you were the beneficial owner of the shares on the record date.
A shareholder submitting a proxy via mail,
e-mail or fax may revoke such proxy at any time prior to commencement of the Meeting by communicating such revocation in writing
to the Company or by executing and delivering a later-dated proxy. In addition, any shareholder who has executed a proxy and is
present at the Meeting may vote in person instead of by proxy, thereby canceling any proxy previously given, whether or not written
revocation of such proxy has been given. Any written notice revoking a proxy should be sent to Sapiens International Corporation
N.V., Azrieli Center, Harokmim 18 Holon, 588 5800 Israel , Israel, Attention: Corporate Secretary. If it is not revoked, the
shares represented will be voted in accordance with the proxy or other voting instruction.
Proxies for use at the Meeting are being
solicited by the Company’s Board of Directors. The form of proxy is being mailed to shareholders and being posted on the
following website— http://www.sapiens.com/annual-meeting/proxy— on or about April 24, 2015. The submission of completed,
signed proxy cards via mail will be the primary means by which the Company expects to receive shareholders’ votes for the
Meeting. Furthermore, certain officers, directors, employees and agents of the Company, none of whom will receive additional compensation
therefor, may solicit proxies by telephone or by other personal contacts. The Company will bear the cost of the solicitation of
the proxies, including any postage, printing and handling charges related to mailing of physical copies of this Proxy Statement
and/or proxy cards, and will reimburse the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding materials to beneficial
owners of Common Shares.
On April 16, 2015, there were 47,904,198
Common Shares outstanding (which excludes 2,328,296 treasury shares), which, if remaining outstanding through the close of business
on April 22, 2015 (the record date for the Meeting) will entitle the holders thereof to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting.

as a dividend to the Company’s shareholders. Actual distribution of such a dividend requires that the Board of Directors
first recommend in writing to a general meeting of shareholders that such a distribution be made, and then that the general meeting
of shareholders duly adopt a subsequent resolution confirming the recommendation of the Board of Directors.
Under Article 17.10 of our Articles of
Association, distributions to our shareholders can only be made to the extent that the Company’s equity exceeds the nominal
capital of the Company. The nominal capital of the Company is the number of shares of the Company issued and outstanding multiplied
by the nominal value of such shares.
On April 20, 2015, the Board of Directors
determined, based on calculations provided by our management, that the Company’s equity exceeds its nominal capital by an
amount that exceeds the $7.2 million aggregate amount of the Dividend. The Board of Directors therefore resolved, subject to shareholder
approval at the Meeting, to distribute the Dividend on June 1, 2015 to all shareholders of record as of May 21, 2015, subject to
approval by the Company’s shareholders at the Meeting on May 20, 2015. If distribution of the Dividend is not approved by
the Company’s shareholders at the Meeting, it will not be paid on June 1, 2015.
If the Dividend
is approved at the Meeting and distributed to the Company’s shareholders, it may be subject to withholding tax under U.S.
and/or Israeli law (as applicable) at varying rates of up to 28% or 30%, respectively (depending on the tax status of the shareholder
and the certification provided by the shareholder in Form W-9 or Form W-8 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or in instructions
provided in a valid withholding certificate issued by the Israel Tax Authority, if and as applicable).
Proposed Resolution
We are proposing that our shareholders adopt
the following resolution at the Meeting:
“RESOLVED, that the distribution by the
Company of a cash dividend of $0.15 per Common Share, or approximately $7.2 million in the aggregate, to be paid in cash on June
1, 2015 to all shareholders of record of the Company as of May 21, 2015, be, and the same hereby is, approved in all respects.”
Required Majority
A majority of the votes cast is required
for the approval of our distribution of the Dividend.
Board Recommendation
The Board of Directors recommends a
vote FOR authorizing the Board of Directors to distribute the aforesaid Dividend.
Other
Matters
The Board of Directors knows of no other
matters to be presented at the Meeting. If any additional matter should be presented properly, it is intended that the form of
proxy being made available to shareholders will be voted in accordance with the discretion of the persons named in the proxy.
Shareholders are urged to vote their proxies
and/or to submit their voting instruction cards in accordance with the instructions provided in this Proxy Statement promptly in
order, among other things, to ensure action by a quorum and to avoid the expense of additional solicitation. If the enclosed proxy
or voting instruction card is properly executed and submitted in time for voting, or a voting authorization is otherwise submitted
to a broker, trustee or nominee by other means, including via the internet (at www.proxyvote.com), , and a choice is specified,
the shares represented thereby will be voted as indicated by a shareholder. If no specification is made, the proxy or other voting
authorization will be voted in favor of each of the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.
