Compensation of Directors and Officers

        The following table sets forth the aggregate compensation paid to or accrued on behalf of all directors and officers of the Company as a group for the year ended December 31, 2005:

  Salaries, Directors' Fees, Service
Fees, Commissions and Bonuses
Pension, Retirement and Similar
Benefits
 
All directors and officers as a group (then 16 persons) $1,492,254  $78,742 


        Such remuneration does not include amounts expended by the Company for expenses, including business association dues and expenses, reimbursed to said officers, and other fringe benefits commonly reimbursed or paid by companies in the location at which the particular executive officer of the Company is located, as the case may be.

        At the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, to elect the following persons to serve as members of the Board of Directors of the Company: Edouard Cukierman, Joel Adler, Adiv Baruch, Avishai Glück, Andrea Mandel-Mantello, Ronen Zavlik and Jean-Marc Bally, to serve until the next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

2. REAPPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

        The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders reappoint Kost, Forer, Gabbay & Kasierer, a member of Ernst & Young International, Ltd., as the independent auditors of the Company, until the next annual general meeting of shareholders. Kost, Forer, Gabbay & Kasierer have served as the Company’s independent auditors since the first quarter of 2002.

7



        At the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

“RESOLVED, that Kost, Forer, Gabbay & Kasierer be, and they hereby are, reappointed as independent auditors of the Company, until the next annual general meeting of shareholders.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

3. INCREASE OF REGISTERED SHARE CAPITAL

        The Company’s registered share capital is currently 35,000,000 NIS, divided into 8,750,000 ordinary shares 4 NIS nominal value each. The Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, on a fully diluted basis, has nearly reached the registered share capital limit, and therefore, the Board of Directors recommends increasing the registered share capital of the Company to 140,000,000 NIS divided into 35,000,000 ordinary shares of 4 NIS nominal value each. The increase is necessary, inter alia, for future fundraising and future M&A transactions that the Company is interested in seeking, and in which, some or all of the consideration may be paid in ordinary shares of the Company.

        At the meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, to increase the registered share capital of the Company to 140,000,000 NIS divided into 35,000,000 ordinary shares 4 NIS nominal value each, and to amend article 4.1 of the Articles of Association and section 4 of the Memorandum of Association, accordingly.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

4. AMENDMENTS TO THE COMPANY’S ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

        In light of recent amendments to the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, the Board of Directors recommends amending certain provisions of the Company’s Articles of Association, as follows:

Article 4.3 – after the sentences “The board of directors may issue shares and other securities which are convertible or exercisable into shares up to the limit of the Company’s authorised share capital. With regard to computing the limit of the authorised capital, securities convertible or exercisable into shares shall be deemed to have been converted or exercised on the date of their issue”, the following shall be inserted: “Such authority of the board of directors may be delegated only as permitted by law.” Such amendment clarifies that that the authority to issue securities may be delegated, but only as permitted by law.

Article 16.9 – after the sentence “Every board of directors’ member may appoint an alternate for himself, provided that such an appointment shall not be for a period exceeding one month, and that someone who was appointed as an alternate for another director and/or who is already serving as a director of the Company may not be appointed as an alternate”, the following shall be inserted: “execpt as provided in section 237(d) of the Companies Law”. Section 237(d) of the Companies Law provides that someone who is already serving as a director may be appointed as an alternate for a director serving as a committee member, if he is not already a member of that committee.

Article 17.6 currently provides: “The board of directors may also pass written resolutions without actually convening, provided that all the directors entitled to participate in the discussion and vote on a matter that is brought for resolution agree thereto.” The word “written” shall be stricken, and the word “thereto” shall be replaced with “…not to convene for discussion of the matter.” after which the following shall be inserted: “In such a case, minutes of the resolutions (including the decision not to convene) shall be signed by the chairman of the board of directors, or alternatively, signatures of the directors shall be attached to the minutes. Instead of a director’s signature, the chairman of the board or the corporate secretary may attach a signed memo regarding the oral vote of a director. Resolutions passed without convening, as aforementioned, shall be passed by an ordinary majority and shall have the same effect as resolutions passed at a duly convened meeting.” Such amendments allow flexibility for the passing of Board resolutions without convening, and require only an ordinary majority of the directors to approve the resolution (although all must agree that resolutions on the matter shall be adopted without convening).

8



Article 19.1 – at the end of the article, the following sentence shall be added: “If a committee merely has a recommendation role, the board of directors may also appoint to the committee members who are not directors.” Such amendment allows the appointment of non-directors to certain committees.

Article 22 – Sub articles 22.1-22.5 shall be replaced in their entirety, due to the recent changes in the law, as follows (the italicized words represent new additions to the current article):

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

5. AMENDMENT TO INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS

        On February 18, 2003 the Company’s Shareholders approved the grant of indemnification letters to all directors of the Company, including directors to be appointed in the future.

        Indemnification of directors requires, under the Companies Law, the approval of the Company’s Audit Committee, Board of Directors, and Shareholders.

        At the meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution (which has been approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors – including, in both, those directors having a personal interest in the decision, being the majority) be adopted:

RESOLVED, to amend the indemnification agreements issued and to be issued in the future to directors of the Company, in light of the amendment to Article 22 of the Company’s Articles of Association.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

6. GRANT OF SHARES TO ADIV BARUCH AND GRANT OF OPTIONS TO SIGNUM LTD.

        Signum Ltd. (“Signum”) provides management services to the Company, exclusively through Mr. Adiv Baruch. Mr. Baruch is one of the controlling shareholders of Signum and serves, pursuant to the management agreement in the capacity of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and also, since February 2004, serves as a director.

        The Executive Session of Independent Directors has recommended and the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have approved (subject to Shareholder approval), to (i) grant Mr. Adiv Baruch a bonus of 65,000 ordinary shares (for no consideration), and (ii) to grant Signum 187,100 options to purchase ordinary shares of the Company, pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan, at an exercise price equal to the average closing price of the Company’s shares on the Nasdaq National Market on the 20 trading days preceding the date of the Meeting at which the grant shall be approved (the “Grant Date”), to be vested in three equal parts on the first, second and third anniversary of the Grant Date, for a maximum exercise period of 3 years from the vesting date of each portion of the Grant.

        Previous grants of options to Signum include 216,282 options at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, as part of the January 2004 management agreement between Signum and the Company, and 20,000 options at an exercise price of $3.08 per share, granted in June 2005. Additionally, as a bonus for the year 2005, Signum was granted an additional 20,000 options, subject to the Company achieving profitability in the financial statements as of December 31, 2005, however, the milestone was not reached and the options were not granted.

        The general purpose of the issuance of options is to provide an incentive to the Company’s CEO, by enabling him to share in the future growth of the business of the Company. The Board of Directors believes that the granting of stock options promotes continuity of management and increases incentive and personal interest in the welfare of the Company by those who are primarily responsible for shaping and carrying out the long range plans of the Company and securing its growth and financial success.

        As Mr. Adiv Baruch is a director of the Company, and since, under the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, his conditions of service with the Company (including remuneration for other positions he holds in the Company), including the issuance of options, must be approved by the shareholders of the Company, at the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution (which has been recommended by the Executive Session of Independent Directors and approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors – excluding Mr. Adiv Baruch who has a personal interest in the decision), be adopted:

10



RESOLVED, to approve the grant of shares to Mr. Adiv Baruch and the grant of options to Signum Ltd., under the above-mentioned terms and conditions, subject to the increase in the Company’s registered share capital (proposal 3) and the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan (proposal 9).”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

7. GRANT OF SHARES AND OPTIONS TO EDOUARD CUKIERMAN

        Mr. Edouard Cukierman serves as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company since June 2003.

        The Executive Session of Independent Directors has recommended and the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have approved (subject to Shareholder approval), to grant Mr. Edouard Cukierman: (i) a bonus of 21,666 ordinary shares (for no consideration), and (ii) 233,876 options to purchase ordinary shares of the Company, pursuant to the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan, at an exercise price equal to the average closing price of the Company’s shares on the Nasdaq National Market on the 20 trading days preceding the date of the Meeting at which the grant shall be approved (the “Grant Date”), to be vested in three equal parts on the first, second and third anniversary of the Grant Date, for a maximum exercise period of 3 years from the vesting date of each portion of the Grant.

        Mr. Edouard Cukierman has not previously been granted shares or options as Chairman of the Board, although in August 2003 he was granted 7,500 options at an exercise price of $1.84, as were all the directors of the Company at the time, which he has transferred to the Catalyst Fund, the Company’s largest shareholder, where he serves as the CEO. The Board of Directors believes that the issuance of options to the Company’s Chairman provides him with an incentive to secure the Company’s growth and financial success, by enabling him to share in such success in the future.

        As Mr. Edouard Cukierman is a director of the Company, and since, under the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, his conditions of service with the Company (including remuneration for other positions he holds in the Company), including the issuance of options, must be approved by the shareholders of the Company, at the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution (which has been recommended by the Executive Session of Independent Directors and approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors – excluding Mr. Edouard Cukierman who has a personal interest in the decision), be adopted:

RESOLVED, to approve the grant of shares and options to Mr. Edouard Cukierman, under the above-mentioned terms and conditions, subject to the increase in the Company’s registered share capital (proposal 3) and the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan (proposal 9).”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

8. AUTHORIZATION TO DISTRIBUTE BONUSES TO THE CHAIRMAN AND THE CEO

        The Executive Session of Independent Directors has recommended and the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have approved (subject to Shareholder approval), that in the event that the Company will have a net profit according to the audited financial statements of any given financial year thru fiscal year 2008, the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors shall have the authority, at their discretion, to grant the persons holding the positions of Chairman and CEO (and other senior executive officers of the Company and its subsidiaries), up to an aggregate of 5% of the net profit, in cash (although, for the avoidance of doubt, they shall not be under any obligation to do so).

11



        As the Chairman, and currently also the CEO, are directors of the Company, and since, under the Israeli Companies Law, 1999, their conditions of service with the Company (including remuneration for other positions they hold in the Company), must be approved by the shareholders of the Company, at the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution (which has been recommended by the Executive Session of Independent Directors and approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors – excluding Mr. Edouard Cukierman and Mr. Adiv Baruch who have a personal interest in the decision, as they currently hold the positions of Chairman and CEO), be adopted:

RESOLVED, to authorize the Audit Committee and Board of Directors to distribute bonuses to the Chairman and the CEO, at their discretion, under the above-mentioned terms and conditions.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

9. INCREASE OF 2003 ISRAELI SHARE OPTION PLAN

        Under the 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan, employees, directors, consultants and service providers of the Company or its subsidiaries may be offered an opportunity to acquire ordinary shares of the Company. The Board of Directors has approved (subject to Shareholder approval) to increase the number of options available for issuance under the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan, from 1 million to 1.5 million, as the current option pool has nearly been depleted (and in the event the grants in proposals 6 and 7 shall be approved, they will be subject to Shareholder approval to increase the option plan). This 2003 Plan is currently the only active Plan from which options are being granted.

        At the Meeting, the Board of Directors will propose that the following resolution be adopted:

“RESOLVED, subject to the increase of the registered share capital of the Company (proposal 3), to approve an increase of the number of options available for issuance under the Company’s 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan, from 1 million to 1.5 million.”

        Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy and unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, the persons named in the enclosed proxy will vote the shares represented thereby FOR the above-mentioned proposal.

10. RECEIPT OF AUDITOR’S REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
