<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">This Amendment No. 20 to Schedule 14D-9 amends and
supplements the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (as amended from time to time, the &ldquo;Statement&rdquo;) originally
filed by Stratasys Ltd., an Israeli company (&ldquo;Stratasys&rdquo;), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;SEC&rdquo;)
on May 30, 2023. The Statement relates to the unsolicited tender offer by Nano Dimension Ltd., an Israeli company (&ldquo;Nano&rdquo;),
to purchase up to 25,266,458 ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share, of Stratasys (&ldquo;Stratasys ordinary shares&rdquo;) not
already owned by Nano, which, together with the Stratasys ordinary shares already owned by Nano, represent no more than 51% (and at least
46%) of the issued and outstanding Stratasys ordinary shares upon consummation of the tender offer, for $25.00 per share in cash, less
any required withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 25, 2023,
the Supplement to Offer to Purchase, dated June 27, 2023, the Second Supplement to Offer to Purchase, dated July 10, 2023, and the Third
Supplement to Offer to Purchase, dated July 18, 2023, and in the related Third Amended Letter of Transmittal and the related Third Amended
Notice of Objection contained in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by Nano with the SEC on July 18, 2023 and July 19, 2023.
Except as specifically noted herein, the information set forth in the Statement remains unchanged.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-indent: 0.5in">On July 31, 2023, at 11:59 p.m., New York time, the
Offer expired and Nano did not extend the Expiration Date. At the expiration of the Offer, certain conditions to the Offer were not satisfied
and Nano did not waive these conditions. According to a press release issued by Nano on August 1, 2023, at the expiration of the Offer,
only 3,408,322 Stratasys ordinary shares had been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer and 445,533 Stratasys
ordinary shares had been tendered pursuant to Notices of Guaranteed Delivery, together representing approximately 5.6% of the outstanding
Stratasys ordinary shares. No Stratasys ordinary shares were purchased by Nano in the Offer.</P>
