           Under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, referred to as the
Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exempt an office holder from liability
with respect to a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exempt in
advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or
in part, with respect to a breach of his or her duty of care.

Office Holder Insurance

           Our articles of association provide that, subject to the provisions
of the Companies Law, we may enter into a contract for the insurance of the
liability of any of our office holders with respect to:

          o    a breach of his or her duty of care to us or to another person;

          o    a breach of his or her fiduciary duty to us, provided that the
               office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable cause to
               assume that his or her act would not prejudice our interests;

          o    a financial liability imposed upon him or her in favor of another
               person concerning an act performed by him or her in his or her
               capacity as an office holder; or

          o    any other incident for which it is or shall be permitted to
               insure the liability of an office holder.

Indemnification of Office Holders

           Our articles of association provide that we may indemnify an office
holder against:

          o    a monetary liability imposed on him or her in favor of another
               person pursuant to a judgment, including a judgment given in a
               settlement or an arbitrator's award approved by the court
               concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office
               holder;

          o    reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by
               an office holder or which he or she is ordered to pay by a court,
               in proceedings we institute against him or instituted on our
               behalf or by another person, or in a criminal charge from which
               he or she was acquitted, or a criminal charge in which he or she
               was convicted for a criminal offense that does not require proof
               of intent, in each case relating to an act performed in his or
               her capacity as an office holder; and

          o    any other obligation or expense for which it is or shall be
               permitted to indemnify a director or an officer.

           The Companies Law provides that a company may exempt an office holder
prospectively from liability, in whole or in part, for damage resulting from a
breach of his or her duty of care towards the company, if its articles of
association so provide. On July 13, 2001, our shareholders approved new articles
of association enabling us to provide our office holders with prospective
indemnification in accordance with the Companies Law.

Limitations on Insurance and Indemnification

           The Companies Law provides that a company may not indemnify an office
holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any
monetary liability incurred as a result of any of the following:

          o    a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty
               unless the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable
               basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;

          o    a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the
               breach was done intentionally or recklessly;

          o    any act or omission done with the intent to derive an illegal
               personal benefit; or

          o    any fine levied against the office holder as a result of a
               criminal offense.

           Under the Companies Law, the shareholders of a company may include in
its articles of association either of the following provisions:

          o    a provision authorizing the company to grant in advance an
               undertaking to indemnify an office holder, provided that the
               undertaking is limited to specified classes of events which the
               board of directors deem foreseeable at the time of grant and is
               limited to an amount determined by the board of directors to be
               reasonable under the circumstances; or

          o    a provision authorizing the company to retroactively indemnify an
               office holder.

           Each of the foregoing provisions is included in our articles of
association that have been approved by our shareholders.

           In addition, under the Companies Law, indemnification of, and
procurement of insurance coverage for, our office holders must be approved by
our audit committee and board of directors and, in specified circumstances, by
our shareholders.

           Our shareholders have approved an indemnification of our directors to
the maximum extent permitted by the Companies Law and exculpation of the
directors from all liability for damage resulting from any director's breach of
care towards us, pursuant to the provisions of the articles of association. We
have acquired directors' and officers' liability insurance covering our officers
and directors for certain claims.

ITEM 9.         UNDERTAKINGS.

           (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

               (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
                    being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
                    Statement:

                    (i)  to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
                         of the Securities Act;

                    (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
                         arising after the effective date of the Registration
                         Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
                         thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
                         represent a fundamental change in the information set
                         forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
                         the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
                         securities offered (if the total dollar value of
                         securities offered would not exceed that which was

                         the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
                         the Registration Statement or any material change to
                         such information in the Registration Statement;

                    provided, however, that paragraph (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii)
                    do not apply if the information required to be included in a
                    post-effective amendment by the foregoing paragraphs is
                    contained in periodic reports, filed with or furnished to
                    the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or
                    Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, that are incorporated by
                    reference in the Registration Statement.

               (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
                    Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
                    deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
                    securities offered therein, and the offering of such
                    securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
                    bona fide offering thereof.

               (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
                    amendment any of the securities being registered which
                    remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

          (b)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
               of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
               filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
               13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated
               by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
               a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
               therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
               be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
               Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
               controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
               provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
               the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
               indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
               Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
               that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
               than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid
               by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in
               the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
               asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
               connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
               will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
               settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
               appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
               indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
               the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
               of such issue.

ITEM 5.    INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

           Not applicable.

ITEM 6.    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

           Under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999, referred to as the
Companies Law, an Israeli company may not exempt an office holder from liability
with respect to a breach of his or her duty of loyalty, but may exempt in
advance an office holder from his or her liability to the company, in whole or
in part, with respect to a breach of his or her duty of care.

                                      II-1
Office Holder Insurance

           Our articles of association provide that, subject to the provisions
of the Companies Law, we may enter into a contract for the insurance of the
liability of any of our office holders with respect to:

          o    a breach of his or her duty of care to us or to another person;

          o    a breach of his or her fiduciary duty to us, provided that the
               office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable cause to
               assume that his or her act would not prejudice our interests;

          o    a financial liability imposed upon him or her in favor of another
               person concerning an act performed by him or her in his or her
               capacity as an office holder; or

          o    any other incident for which it is or shall be permitted to
               insure the liability of an office holder.

Indemnification of Office Holders

           Our articles of association provide that we may indemnify an office
holder against:

          o    a monetary liability imposed on him or her in favor of another
               person pursuant to a judgment, including a judgment given in a
               settlement or an arbitrator's award approved by the court
               concerning an act performed in his or her capacity as an office
               holder;

          o    reasonable litigation expenses, including legal fees, incurred by
               an office holder or which he or she is ordered to pay by a court,
               in proceedings we institute against him or instituted on our
               behalf or by another person, or in a criminal charge from which
               he or she was acquitted, or a criminal charge in which he or she
               was convicted for a criminal offense that does not require proof
               of intent, in each case relating to an act performed in his or
               her capacity as an office holder; and

          o    any other obligation or expense for which it is or shall be
               permitted to indemnify a director or an officer.

           The Companies Law provides that a company may exempt an office holder
prospectively from liability, in whole or in part, for damage resulting from a
breach of his or her duty of care towards the company, if its articles of
association so provide. On July 13, 2001, our shareholders approved new articles
of association enabling us to provide our office holders with prospective
indemnification in accordance with the Companies Law.

                                      II-2
Limitations on Insurance and Indemnification

           The Companies Law provides that a company may not indemnify an office
holder nor enter into an insurance contract that would provide coverage for any
monetary liability incurred as a result of any of the following:

          o    a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of loyalty
               unless the office holder acted in good faith and had a reasonable
               basis to believe that the act would not prejudice the company;

          o    a breach by the office holder of his or her duty of care if the
               breach was done intentionally or recklessly;

          o    any act or omission done with the intent to derive an illegal
               personal benefit; or

          o    any fine levied against the office holder as a result of a
               criminal offense.

           Under the Companies Law, the shareholders of a company may include in
its articles of association either of the following provisions:

          o    a provision authorizing the company to grant in advance an
               undertaking to indemnify an office holder, provided that the
               undertaking is limited to specified classes of events which the
               board of directors deem foreseeable at the time of grant and is
               limited to an amount determined by the board of directors to be
               reasonable under the circumstances; or

          o    a provision authorizing the company to retroactively indemnify an
               office holder.

           Each of the foregoing provisions is included in our articles of
association that have been approved by our shareholders.

           In addition, under the Companies Law, indemnification of, and
procurement of insurance coverage for, our office holders must be approved by
our audit committee and board of directors and, in specified circumstances, by
our shareholders.

           Our shareholders have approved an indemnification of our directors to
the maximum extent permitted by the Companies Law and exculpation of the
directors from all liability for damage resulting from any director's breach of
care towards us, pursuant to the provisions of the articles of association. We
have acquired directors' and officers' liability insurance covering our officers
and directors for certain claims.

ITEM 9.         UNDERTAKINGS.

           (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

               (1)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
                    being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration
                    Statement:

                    (i)  to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
                         of the Securities Act;

                    (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
                         arising after the effective date of the Registration
                         Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
                         thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
                         represent a fundamental change in the information set
                         forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding
                         the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
                         securities offered (if the total dollar value of
                         securities offered would not exceed that which was
                         registered) and any deviation from the low or high end
                         of the estimated maximum offering range may be
                         reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
                         Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
                         aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
                         more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
                         offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
                         Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration
                         Statement; and

                                      II-4
(iii) to include any material information with respect to
                         the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in
                         the Registration Statement or any material change to
                         such information in the Registration Statement;

                    provided, however, that paragraph (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii)
                    do not apply if the information required to be included in a
                    post-effective amendment by the foregoing paragraphs is
                    contained in periodic reports, filed with or furnished to
                    the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or
                    Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, that are incorporated by
                    reference in the Registration Statement.

               (2)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
                    Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
                    deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
                    securities offered therein, and the offering of such
                    securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
                    bona fide offering thereof.

               (3)  To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
                    amendment any of the securities being registered which
                    remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

          (b)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
               of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
               filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
               13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated
               by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
               a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered
               therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
               be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (c)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
               Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
               controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
               provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
               the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
               indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
               Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
               that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
               than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid
               by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in
               the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
               asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
               connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
               will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
               settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
               appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
               indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
               the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
               of such issue.
