AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into this February 3, 2014, by and between (1) FIMI Opportunity Fund IV, L.P., a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware, FIMI Israel Opportunity Fund IV, Limited Partnership, a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Israel, FIMI Opportunity V, L.P., a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Delaware, and FIMI Israel Opportunity V, Limited Partnership, a limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of Israel (each, a "Purchaser Entity" and, collectively, the “Purchaser”), and (2) [York Capital Management, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, York Multi-Strategy Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, York Credit Opportunities Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, York Credit Opportunities Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership, Jorvik Multi-Strategy Master Fund, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership and Permal York Ltd. , a British Virgin Islands company] (each, a "Seller Entity" and, collectively, collectively, the “Seller”). Each of Purchaser and Seller may be referred to herein as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties".

WHEREAS, Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (the “Company”) is a public Israeli company whose ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.2 per share (“Ordinary Shares”), are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange; and

WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller and Seller desires to sell to Purchaser a total of 2,106,121 Ordinary Shares of the Company (the "Purchased Shares") in an off-market private transaction in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

For purposes of this Agreement "Encumbrances" shall mean: liens, pledges, security interests, easements, restrictive covenants, claims, charges, mortgages or other third party rights of any kind.

Seller shall have the right to notify Purchaser in writing, within five (5) business days after it is informed of the Tag Along Offer, of its intention to exercise its tag along right pursuant to this Section 4 (the “Tag Along Exercise Notice”), in such number of Ordinary Shares of up to Seller's Pro-Rata Portion (as defined below), as Seller shall specify in the Tag Along Exercise Notice, and on the same terms and conditions to Seller as set forth in the Tag Along Offer.

"Seller's Pro-Rata Portion" shall mean the number of Tag Along Shares multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number of Ordinary Shares held by Seller as of the date of the Tag Along Exercise Notice and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the total number of Ordinary Shares held by Seller as of such date plus the total number of Ordinary Shares held by Purchaser as of such date.

In each instance in which Seller exercises its tag along right hereunder, Purchaser shall either (i) cause the Proposed Purchaser to add such number of Ordinary Shares indicated in the Tag Along Exercise Notice, in addition to the Tag Along Shares to be purchased by the Proposed Purchaser from Purchaser, as part of the sale agreement; or, in the event that the Proposed Purchaser declines to purchase the total number of Ordinary Shares that the parties wish to sell, or (ii) cause the number of Tag Along Shares proposed to be sold by Purchaser to be accordingly reduced to the extent necessary to provide for the sale by Seller of its Ordinary Shares as indicated in the Tag Along Exercise Notice.

Purchaser shall have sole discretion in deciding whether or not to consummate the transaction contemplated by the Tag Along Offer (regardless of the exercise by Seller of its tag along rights), and shall have no liability towards Seller if such transactions are not consummated. In the event the transactions contemplated by a Tag Along Offer shall not be consummated by Purchaser for any reason, Seller shall not be required to, but may, sell any Ordinary Shares to the Proposed Purchaser.

In the event that Purchaser proposes to effect a sale of Ordinary Shares on terms and conditions less favorable to a seller of shares than those set forth in the Tag Along Offer or in the event that the transaction thereunder is not consummated within 90 days after the lapse of the five (5) business-day period set forth above, then Purchaser shall not proceed with any sale of Ordinary Shares without Purchaser again complying with the terms and conditions of this Section 4.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the tag along rights set forth in this Section 4 shall not apply to the transfer of Ordinary Shares by Purchaser to its Permitted Transferees (as defined below).

For the purpose of this Agreement, "Permitted Transferee" shall mean any Purchaser Entity, the partners of any such Purchaser Entity (pro rata to their respective holdings in the Purchaser Entity) and any entity controlled by, controlling or under common control with any such Purchaser Entity.

or such other address with respect to a Party as such Party shall notify the other Party in writing as above provided. Any notice sent in accordance with this Section 5(5) shall be effective (i) if mailed, five (5) business days after mailing, (ii) if sent by messenger, upon delivery to the above-referenced address, and (iii) if sent via email, on the first business day following transmission and electronic confirmation of receipt (provided, however, that any notice of change of address shall only be valid upon receipt).
