 Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
 
On March 29, 2010, the Reporting Person entered into a subscription agreement with the Issuer pursuant to which he agreed to purchase 100,000 units for an aggregate purchase price of $378,000, subject to the approval of the Issuer's shareholders.  See Item 6 for more information.  The Reporting Person will use personal funds to pay the purchase price.
 
 
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
 
See Item 6
 
 
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
On March 29, 2010, the Reporting Person entered into a subscription agreement with the Issuer pursuant to which he agreed to purchase 100,000 units for an aggregate purchase price of $378,000, subject to the approval of the Issuer's shareholders. Such units consist of 100,000 Ordinary Shares, primary warrants to purchase up to 25,000 Ordinary Shares and contingent warrants to purchase up to 25,000 Ordinary Shares.  The Issuer's shareholders are expected to vote on this matter at the 2010 annual general meeting, which is expected to take place in May 2010. If the shareholders approve the proposed investment of the Reporting Person, his beneficial ownership will increase to 9.1% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares.  If the shareholders do not approve the proposed investment of the Reporting Person, his subscription agree ment will become null and void.
 
The foregoing transaction was part of a "registered direct" offering of the Issuer of 2,810,000 units, which closed on April 1, 2010. Included in this figure are 175,000 units issuable to two affiliates of the Issuer, subject to shareholder approval. Each unit consists of one Ordinary Share, a primary warrant to purchase 0.25 of one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $5.66 per share and a contingent warrant to purchase 0.25 of one Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.32 per share.

The primary warrants are exercisable until April 1, 2015.  The contingent warrants are not exercisable initially.  If the closing price of the Ordinary Shares for any 20 trading day period within a 30 trading day period following April 1, 2011 is equal to or greater than $11.32 per share, the Issuer may require the holders of primary warrants to exercise any previously unexercised primary warrants, provided, however, that the Issuer may not require the exercise of the primary warrants in any period during which the Ordinary Shares are not listed for trading on the NASDAQ Global Market, the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, or any national securities exchange.  In the event that the Issuer requires the exercise of the primary warrants, subject to certain conditions, contingent warrants to purchase a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the number of primary warrants the Issuer required holders to exercise will become exercisable until April 1, 2015.  The exercise prices of the primary warrants and contingent warrants are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of dividends and distributions, share splits, share combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Ordinary Shares.  The subscription agreement and forms of the primary warrants and the contingent warrants are filed as exhibits to this Schedule 13D and the summary set forth herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to such documents.

In connection with the offering of the Issuer, the Reporting Person agreed to a customary lock-up restriction with respect to all of his Ordinary Shares for a period of 90 days from April 1, 2010.

(b) The Shares, Warrants and Warrant Shares have been registered on a Registration Statement on Form F-3, Registration No. 333-164822 (together with any registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) (the “Registration Statement”), which Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), has remained effective since such date and is effective on the date hereof.
 
(c)       On April 1, 2010 (the “Closing Date”), in accordance with Rule 15c6-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in the Placement Agency Agreement (the “Placement Agreement”), dated March 29, 2010, by and among the Company and the placement agent named therein (the “Placement Agent”), the Placement Agent will disburse, or cause to be disbursed, to the Company a n amount equal to the Purchase Price for such Shares and Warrants, less its commissions, upon receipt of the aggregate number of Shares purchased by the Investor via release by the Company of the Shares to Roth’s clearing firm, Ridge Clearing & Outsourcing Solutions DTC 0158 via DWAC delivery, which Roth will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Investor in accordance with the instructions provided by the Investor on its executing broker’s account versus payment for such Shares.  The Company shall deliver to Investor the Warrants in physical, certificated form to the address set forth on the signature page hereto, registered in such name or names as designated by the Investor on the signature page hereto.  The Shares and Warrants shall be unlegended and free of any resale restrictions.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Investor so requests, the Shares shall be delivered to the Investor in physical, certificated form to the address set forth on the signa ture page hereto, bearing such legends as appropriate under the circumstances.

5.           Miscellaneous.

(a) This Agreement (including the Company’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in the Placement Agreement incorporated herein pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof) constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter, and there are no agreements or understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof which are not contained in this Agreement.  This Agreement may be amended or modified only in writing signed by the parties hereto.  The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein shall survive execution of this Agreement, delivery of the Shares and the War rants and exercise of the Warrants.

(b) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties hereto, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart.  Execution may be made by delivery by facsimile or pdf sent via electronic transmission.

(c) The provisions of this Agreement are severable and, in the event that any court or officials of any regulatory agency of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any one or more of the provisions or part of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or part of a provision of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be reformed and construed as if such invalid or illegal or unenforceable provision, or part of such provision, had never been contained herein, so that such provisions would be valid, legal and enfor ceable to the maximum extent possible, so long as such construction does not materially adversely effect the economic rights of either party hereto.

(d) All communications hereunder, except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein, shall be in writing and shall be mailed, hand delivered, sent by a recognized overnight courier service such as Federal Express, or sent via facsimile and confirmed by letter, to the party to whom it is addressed at the following addresses or such other address as such party may advise the other in writing:

To the Seller:  as set forth on the signature page hereto.

To the Buyer:  as set forth on the signature page hereto.

All notices hereunder shall be effective upon receipt by the party to which it is addressed.

(e)      This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York for contracts to be wholly performed in such state and without giving effect to the principles thereof regarding the conflict of laws. Any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall only be instituted, heard and adjudicated (excluding appeals) in a state or federal court located in New York, and each party hereto knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives any objection which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding, and irrevocably submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any such court in any such action, suit or proceeding.  Service of process in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement.
 
(f)  The Company agrees that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements given by the Company in the Placement Agreement are incorporated by reference in full herein and the Investor shall be entitled to rely on such representations, warranties, covenants and agreements. The Company confirms that neither it nor any other person acting on its behalf has provided the Investor or its agents (which for this purpose do not include the Placement Agent) or counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information, except as will be disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Press Release and the Company's Form 6-K filed with the Commission in connection with the Transaction.  The Compan y understands and confirms that the Investor will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Company.

(g) This Agreement shall not be assigned by any party hereto, without the express prior written consent of the Company or the Investor.
 
(h)  The Investor has not directly or indirectly, nor has any person acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor, engaged in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitations, any Short Sales involving the Company’s securities) since the time that the Investor was first contacted by the Company or the Placement Agent regarding an investment in the Company.  The Investor covenants that neither it nor any person acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will engage in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including Short Sales) prior to the time that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are publicly disclosed.  For purposes of this provision, a “Short Sale” means a sale of Ordinary Shares th at is marked as a short sale and that is executed at a time when the Investor has no equivalent offsetting long position in the Ordinary Shares, exclusive of the Shares. For purposes of determining whether the Investor has an equivalent offsetting long position in the Ordinary Shares, all Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon exercise in full of all options, warrants or convertible securities then held by the Investor (assuming that such options were then fully exercisable or convertible, notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary, and giving effect to any exercise price adjustments scheduled to take effect in the future) shall be deemed to be held long by the Investor. The Investor understands and acknowledges that the Commission currently takes the position that coverage of Short Sales “against the box” prior to the effective date of an applicable Registration Statement is a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Ava ilable Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, complied by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance.
