(“BOS” or the “Company”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Company (the “Meeting”) to be held in Israel at the Company’s offices at 20 Freiman Street, Rishon Le Zion, on November 7, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. local time, and thereafter as it may be adjourned from time to time.

2. To approve the Active Chairman Agreement between the Company and Mr. Edouard Cukierman, the Company's Chairman of the Board.

3. To transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournments thereof.

        A form of proxy for use at the Meeting and a return envelope for the proxy are also enclosed. By appointing “proxies,” shareholders may vote their Ordinary Shares at the Meeting whether or not they attend. Upon the receipt of a properly signed and dated proxy in the form enclosed, the persons named as proxies therein will vote the Ordinary Shares represented thereby in accordance with the instructions of the shareholder indicated thereon, or, if no direction is indicated, in accordance with the recommendations of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company knows of no other matters to be submitted at the Meeting other than as specified in the Notice of Special General Meeting of Shareholders enclosed with this Proxy Statement. If any other business is properly brought before the Meeting, however, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies to vote in respect thereof in accordance with their best judgment. Shares represented by executed and unrevoked proxies will be voted. Beneficial owners who hold their shares through members of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (“TASE”) may either vote their shares in person at the Meeting by presenting a certificate signed by a member of the TASE which complies with the Israeli Companies Regulations (Proof of Ownership for Voting in General Meeting), 2000 as proof of ownership of the shares, or send such certificate along with a duly executed proxy to the Company at 20 Freiman Street, Rishon Le Zion, 75101 Israel, Attention: Mr. Eyal Cohen. On all matters considered at the Meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either a vote “for” or “against” the matter, although they will be counted to determine if a quorum is present.

        The proxy solicited hereby may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise by means of a written notice delivered to the Company at its mailing address, which is, in Israel, 20 Freiman Street, Rishon Le Zion, 75101 Israel or in the United States, c/o American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 59 Maiden Lane – Plaza Entrance, New York, New York 10038, USA, by the substitution of a new proxy bearing a later date or by a request for the return of the proxy at the Meeting.

In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, directors, officers and employees of the Company, without receiving additional compensation therefore, may solicit proxies by telephone, telegraph, in person or by other means. Brokerage firms, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians have been requested to forward proxy solicitation materials to the beneficial owners of Ordinary Shares of the Company held of record by such persons, and the Company will reimburse such brokerage firms, nominees, fiduciaries and other custodians for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in connection therewith.

II. RESOLUTIONS

1. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

        The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors have resolved, subject to shareholder approval, to approve: (i) the raise by the Company of equity in the amount of no less than $5,000,000 and no more than $8,000,000 by way of a private placement of Ordinary Shares and of warrants, to take place and close no later than June 30, 2008; (ii) the payment of placement fees amounting to up to 6% of the offering in connection with such private placement; and (iii) the undertaking by the Company to file a registration statement covering the resale of the securities to be issued in the private placement.

        The price per share of the Ordinary Shares shall be the average trading price of the Company’s ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market in the 20 days prior to the date of shareholders approval plus a premium of up to 10% (the “PPS”). The warrants to be issued shall amount to up to 70% of the number of Ordinary Shares offered (i.e. 70% warrant coverage) and shall be exercisable for 4 years from grant at an exercise price per ordinary share equal to the PPS plus 18%.

        Since certain affiliates of the Company’s directors may participate in the private placement and/or receive placement fees in connection therewith, then pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law the private placement was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee prior to the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

        At this time the Company does not have clear indications of interest from potential investors and shareholders approval is sought in advance. The affirmative vote of a majority of the Ordinary Shares represented at the meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is required in order to approve the private placement.

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

RESOLVED, to approve the raise of equity by the Company by way of a private placement, under the abovementioned terms and conditions, as recommended by the Board of Directors, and to authorize the Board of Directors to negotiate and finalize its terms.”

        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. ACTIVE CHAIRMAN AGREEMENT WITH EDOUARD CUKIERMAN

        The Company has entered into an Active Chairman Agreement with Edouard Cukierman (“Cukierman”), pursuant to which, subject to shareholders approval, Cukierman shall be granted options (the “Options”) to purchase up to 100,000 Ordinary Shares of the Company per each calendar year of service as the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Service”) in the years 2007-2010 (pro-rated for any part of the Calendar year). The Options shall be in lieu of any compensation, fees or options otherwise payable by the Company to Cukierman as a director.

        The Options shall vest on a quarterly basis. The exercise price of the Options shall be equal to the weighted average of the closing prices of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Global Market during the thirty-day period preceding the shareholders approval. Unexercised Options shall expire after five years from their respective grant date.

        Pursuant to the Agreement, if the Service is terminated by the Company for no Cause (as defined in the Agreement) then: (i) any unvested Options shall be immediately vested in full as of the date of the termination; (ii) the Company shall grant Cukierman such number of Options amounting, together with Options previously granted, to 400,000 Options, and such additional options shall be vested upon grant; and (iii) the Options shall be exercisable for a period of twenty four (24) months from termination.

        If the Service is terminated by Cukierman in circumstances not involving Cause, his vested options shall be exercisable for six (6) months from the date of said termination.

4



        If the Service is terminated for Cause, then all Options granted to Cukierman pursuant to the Agreement shall expire at termination.

        Since Mr. Edouard Cukierman is a director of the Company, then pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law the Active Chairman Agreement was approved by the Company’s Audit Committee prior to the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

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

RESOLVED, to approve the Active Chairman Agreement between the Company and Mr. Edouard Cukierman, the Company’s Chairman of the Board”.

        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. OTHER BUSINESS

        The Meeting is called for the purposes set forth in the Notice accompanying this Proxy Statement. As of the date of the Notice, the Board of Directors knows of no business which will be presented for consideration at the Meeting other than the foregoing matters. If other matters not now known properly come before the Meeting, however, it is intended that the persons named as proxies or their substitutes will vote the Ordinary Shares in accordance with their best judgment with respect to such matters.
