Believes Yoav Stern's Silence is Deafening

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 17, 2024-- Murchinson Ltd. (collectively with its affiliates and funds it advises and/or sub-advises, “Murchinson” or “we”), a significant shareholder with approximately 7.1% of the outstanding shares of Nano Dimension Ltd. (NASDAQ: NNDM) (“Nano” or the “Company”), today issued the following statement:

“Recent media reports have revealed facts suggesting questionable relationships between Nano’s leadership and affiliates of a sanctioned Russian oligarch, further calling into question the Board’s judgment and governance.^1,2 Despite this reporting, CEO Yoav Stern and the Board have remained silent.

Shareholders deserve answers and clarifications:

• Do Mr. Stern and the members of management deny being aware of the alleged connections between the sanctioned person and the two individuals who controlled DeepCube at the time Nano acquired it for more than $70 million – Yaron Eitan and Andrew Intrater?
  
  
• Who were the beneficial owners of the mysterious Anakhnu LLC?
  
  
• Were the Nano Board members (including Christopher J. Moran, General Manager of Lockheed Martin Ventures) made aware of these allegedly concerning connections (by Mr. Stern, CEO; by Mr. Eitan and Dr. Eli David, Nano directors at the time of Nano’s acquisition of DeepCube; or by external counsel)?
  
  
• Was the sensitive nature of AI technology in conjunction with what media reports describe to be close affiliation with a Kremlin-connected oligarch taken into consideration at the time of acquisition given the importance of the U.S. defense sector to Nano (as clients)?
  
  
• Why is Nano silent?

We urge Mr. Stern and the rest of the Nano Board to publicly address these questions. Shareholders deserve transparency and to be fully informed regarding material information that could impact their voting decisions.”
