D.    Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following risks together with the other information in this Annual Report in evaluating our business, financial condition and our prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we consider immaterial may also impair our business operations, financial results and prospects. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial results and prospects could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our ordinary shares could decline. You should also refer to the other information set forth in this Annual Report, including our financial statements and related notes and the Section captioned “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flows and may not be profitable in the future.

We have incurred substantial losses and negative cash flows since our inception. We had an accumulated deficit of approximately $24,065,000 at December 31, 2005. We incurred net losses of approximately $3,951,000 and $1,872,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We expect to have net operating losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable future, and expect to spend significant amounts of capital to enhance our products and services, develop further sales and operations and fund expansion. As a result, we will need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

Part of our operating expense levels are based on internal forecasts for future demand and not on firm customer orders for products or services. Our results may be negatively affected by fluctuating demand for our products and services from one quarter to the next and by increases in the costs of components and raw materials acquired from suppliers.

We will face a need for additional capital and may need to curtail our operations if it is not available.

We have partially funded our operations through the issuance of equity securities to investors and may not be able to generate a positive cash flow in the future. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, we will need to seek additional funds through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities or other sources of financing. We may not be able to secure such additional financing on favorable terms, or at all. Any additional financings will likely cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to obtain necessary additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, or cease, our operations. We believe that, as of the filling date of this annual report, our current cash and cash equivalents, in addition to our revenues generated from our business operations, will satisfy our operating capital needs for at least the next twelve months based upon our anticipated business activities. However, we may need additional capital even within the next twelve months if we undertake large projects or have a delay in one of our anticipated projects. Our need for additional capital to finance our operations and growth will be greater should, among other things, our revenue or expense estimates prove to be incorrect.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from a small number of customers, and the reduction of sales to any one of those customers could adversely impact our operating results by causing a drop in revenues.

We depend on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenue. During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, we derived 65% and 66%, respectively, of our consolidated net revenue for that year from four individual customers. In the year ended December 31, 2005, four of our customers accounted for 66% of our consolidated net revenues as follows: Moldovan Government (see additional information in item 4.B - “Recent Developments”), China Travel Services (CHK) Ltd., African governmental agency and State Enterprise Poligraphic - Ukraine accounted for, 22%, 11%, 23% and 10%, respectively, of our consolidated net revenues. A substantial reduction in sales to, or loss of, any of our significant customers would adversely affect our business unless we were able to replace the revenue we received from those customers, which replacement we may not be able to do. As a result of this concentration of revenue from a limited number of customers, our revenue has experienced wide fluctuations, and we may continue to experience wide fluctuations in the future. Part of our sales are not recurring sales, including our sales in 2005 to African governmental agency and State Enterprise Poligraphic, and quarterly and annual sales levels could fluctuate and sales in any period may not be indicative of sales in future periods.

5

Our reliance on third party technologies, raw materials and components for the development of some of our products and our reliance on third parties for manufacturing may delay product launch, impair our ability to develop and deliver products or hurt our ability to compete in the market.

Most of our products integrate third-party technology that we license and/or raw materials and components that we purchase or otherwise obtain the right to use, including: operating systems, microchips, security and cryptography technology for card operating systems, which prevents unauthorized parties from tampering with our cards, and dual interface technology, which enables cards to operate in both contact and contactless mode. Our ability to purchase and license new technologies and components from third parties is and will continue to be critical to our ability to offer a complete line of products that meets customer needs and technological requirements. We may not be able to renew our existing licenses or be able to purchase components and raw materials on favorable terms, or at all. If we lose the rights to a patented technology, we may need to stop selling or may need to redesign our products that incorporate that technology, and we may lose the potential competitive advantage such technology gave us. In addition, competitors could obtain licenses for technologies for which we are unable to obtain licenses, and third parties may develop or enable others to develop a similar solution to security issues, either of which events could adversely affect our results of operations. Also, dependence on the patent protection of third parties may not afford us any control over the protection of the technologies upon which we rely. If the patent protection of any of these third parties were compromised, our ability to compete in the market also would be impaired.

We do not have minimum supply commitments from our vendors for our raw materials or components and generally purchase raw materialsand components on a purchase order basis. Although we generally use standard raw materials and components for our systems, some of the key raw materials or components are available only from a single source or from limited sources. For example, Teslin®, which is a primary raw material used in our smart card products is only available from a single source. Similarly, many of our various chips and toners are only available from limited sources. Even where multiple sources are available, we typically obtain components and raw materials from only one vendor to ensure high quality, prompt delivery and low cost. If one of our suppliers were unable to meet our supply demands and we could not quickly replace the source of supply, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition, for reasons including a delay of receipt of revenues and damage to our business reputation.

Delays in deliveries from our suppliers or defects in goods or components supplied by our vendors could cause our revenues and gross margins to decline.

We rely on a limited number of vendors for certain components for the products we are supplying and rely on a single vendor for Teslin®. We do not have any long-term contracts with our suppliers. Any undetected flaws in components or other materials to be supplied by our vendors could lead to unanticipated costs to repair or replace these parts or materials. Even though there are multiple suppliers, we purchase some of our components from a single supplier to take advantage of volume discounts which presents a risk that the components may not be available in the future on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Although we believe that there are additional suppliers for the equipment and supplies that we require, we may not be able to make such alternative arrangement promptly. If one of our suppliers were unable to meet our supply demands and we could not quickly replace the source of supply, it could cause a delay of receipt of revenues and damage to our business reputation.

Our inability to maintain existing and develop new strategic relationships with primary integrators for governmental secured ID and passport projects could impact our ability to obtain or sell our products, and prevent us from generating revenues.

We obtain and sell many of our products through strategic alliance and supplier agreements in which we act as subcontractors or suppliers to the primary integrator or contractor, including China Travel Service (Holdings) H.K. Ltd. in Hong Kong for the Hong Kong passport project and China Travel Services (CHK) Ltd. for the China re-entry card project.. The loss of any of our existing strategic relationships, or the inability to create new strategic relationships in the future, could adversely affect our ability to develop and sell our products.

We sometimes depend upon our strategic partners to market our products and to fund and perform their obligations as contemplated by our agreements with them. We do not control the time and resources devoted by our partners to these activities. These relationships may not continue or may require us to spend significant financial, personnel and administrative resources from time to time. We may not have the resources available to satisfy our commitments, which may adversely affect our strategic relationships.

6

If alliance or supplier agreements are cancelled, modified or delayed, if alliance or supplier partners decide not to purchase our products or to purchase only limited quantities of our products, or if we are unable to enter into additional alliance or supplier agreements, our ability to produce and sell our products and to generate revenues could be adversely affected.

We have sought U.S. government contracts in the past and may seek additional U.S. government contracts in the future, which subjects us to certain risks associated with such types of contracts.

Most U.S. government contracts are awarded through a competitive bidding process, and some of the business that we expect to seek in the future likely will be subject to a competitive bidding process. Competitive bidding presents a number of risks, including:

· the frequent need to compete against companies or teams of companies with more financial and marketing resources and more experience than we have in bidding on and performing major contracts;

· the need to compete against companies or teams of companies that may be long-term, entrenched incumbents for a particular contract we are competing for and which have, as a result, greater domain expertise and established customer relations;

· the need to compete on occasion to retain existing contracts that have in the past been awarded to us on a sole-source basis;

· the substantial cost and managerial time and effort necessary to prepare bids and proposals for contracts that may not be awarded to us;

· the need to accurately estimate the resources and cost structure that will be required to service any fixed-price contract that we are awarded;and

· the expense and delay that may arise if our competitors protest or challenge new contract awards made to us pursuant to competitive bidding or subsequent contract modifications, and the risk that any of these protests or challenges could result in the resubmission of bids on modified specifications, or in termination, reduction or modification of the awarded contract.

We may not be afforded the opportunity in the future to bid on contracts that are held by other companies and are scheduled to expire if the U.S. government determines to extend the existing contract. If we are unable to win particular contracts that are awarded through the competitive bidding process, we may not be able to operate in the market for products and services that are provided under those contracts for a number of years. If we are unable to win new contract awards or retain those contracts, if any, that we are awarded over any extended period, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

In addition, U.S. government contracts subjects us to risks associated with public budgetary restrictions and uncertainties, actual contracts that are less than awarded contract amounts, and cancellation at any time at the option of the government. Any failure to comply with the terms of any government contracts could result in substantial civil and criminal fines and penalties, as well as suspension from future contracts for a significant period of time, any of which could adversely affect our business by requiring us to pay significant fines and penalties or prevent us from earning revenues from government contracts during the suspension period. Cancellation of any one of our major government contracts, however, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

The U.S. government may be in a position to obtain greater rights with respect to our intellectual property than we would grant to other entities. Government agencies also have the power, based on financial difficulties or investigations of their contractors, to deem contractors unsuitable for new contract awards. Because we will engage in the government contracting business, we will be subject to audits and may be subject to investigation by governmental entities. Failure to comply with the terms of any government contracts could result in substantial civil and criminal fines and penalties, as well as suspension from future government contracts for a significant period of time, any of which could adversely affect our business by requiring us to spend money to pay the fines and penalties and prohibiting us from earning revenues from government contracts during the suspension period.

7

Furthermore, government programs can experience delays or cancellation of funding, which can be unpredictable. For example, the U.S. military’s involvement in Iraq has caused the diversion of some Department of Defense funding away from the certain projects in which we participate, thereby delaying orders under certain of our governmental contracts. This makes it difficult to forecast our revenues on a quarter-by-quarter basis.

Our dependence on third party distributors, sales agents, and value-added resellers could result in marketing and distribution delays which would prevent us from generating sales revenues.

We market and sell some of our products using a network of distributors covering several major world regions, including the United States. We establish relationships with distributors and resellers through written agreements that provide prices, discounts and other material terms and conditions under which the reseller is eligible to purchase our systems and products for resale. These agreements generally do not grant exclusivity to the distributors and resellers and, as a general matter, are not long-term contracts, do not have commitments for minimum sales and could be terminated by the distributor. We do not have agreements with all of our distributors., We are currently engaged in discussions with other potential distributors, sales agents, and value-added resellers. Such arrangements may never be finalized and, if finalized, such arrangements may not increase our revenues or enable us to achieve profitability.

Our ability to terminate a distributor who is not performing satisfactorily may be limited. Inadequate performance by a distributor would adversely affect our ability to develop markets in the regions for which the distributor is responsible and could result in substantially greater expenditures by us in order to develop such markets. Our operating results will be highly dependent upon: (i) our ability to maintain our existing distributor arrangements; (ii) our ability to establish and maintain coverage of major geographic areas and establish access to customers and markets; and (iii) the ability of our distributors, sales agents, and value-added resellers to successfully market our products. A failure to achieve these objectives could result in lower revenues.

Third parties could obtain access to our proprietary information or could independently develop similar technologies because of the limited protection for our intellectual property and such actions would enable third parties to compete more effectively with us and, accordingly, these actions would have a harmful effect on our operations.

Despite the precautions we take, third parties may copy or obtain and use our proprietary technologies, ideas, know-how and other proprietary information without authorization or may independently develop technologies similar or superior to our technologies. In addition, the confidentiality and non-competition agreements between us and most of our employees, distributors and clients may not provide meaningful protection of our proprietary technologies or other intellectual property in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure. If we are not able to defend successfully our industrial or intellectual property rights, we might lose rights to technology that we need to develop our business, which may cause us to lose potential revenues, or we might be required to pay significant license fees for the use of such technology. To date, we have relied primarily on a combination of patent, trade secret and copyright laws, as well as nondisclosure and other contractual restrictions on copying, reverse engineering and distribution to protect our proprietary technology. We currently have 5 patent cases. One registered in Israel, 2 pending in Israel, 3 pending in USA, one registered in Honk Kong and one pending in other jurisdictions. Generally, these patents and patent applications relate to our lamination, printing access control and electronic passport technologies

We may not be issued patents based on our patent applications. Any inability to protect intellectual property rights in our technology could enable third parties to compete more effectively with us and/or could reduce our ability to compete. In addition, these efforts to protect our intellectual property rights could require us to incur substantial costs even when our efforts are successful.

In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of Israel or the United States. Our means of protecting our intellectual property rights in Israel, the United States or any other country in which we operate may not be adequate to fully protect our intellectual property rights. For instance, the intellectual property rights of our Asian subsidiary, SuperCom Asia Pacific Ltd. may not be fully protected by the laws of Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The PRC does not yet possess a comprehensive body of intellectual property laws. As a result, the enforcement, interpretation and implementation of existing laws, regulations or agreements may be sporadic, inconsistent and subject to considerable discretion. The PRC’s judiciary has not had sufficient opportunity to gain experience in enforcing laws that exist, leading to a higher than usual degree of uncertainty as to the outcome of any litigation. As the legal system develops, entities such as ours may be adversely affected by new laws, changes to existing laws (or interpretations thereof) and preemption of provincial or local laws by national laws. Even when adequate law exists in the PRC, it may not be possible to obtain speedy and equitable enforcement of the law.

We may face harmful claims of infringement of proprietary rights, which could require us to devote substantial time and resources toward modifying our products or obtaining appropriate licenses.

There is a risk that our products infringe the proprietary rights of third parties. On August 8, 2003, we received a letter stating that we may be infringing certain patents of third parties with respect to our hot lamination process for plastic cards. We reviewed the claims made in the letter and we do not believe that our products or technology infringes such parties' patents or any other third party's patents. Since the initial letter, we received another letter dated July 13, 2004 from the same party requesting that we respond to their claim and stating that attractive licenses are available. On August 11, 2004 we responded to this letter and indicated that we do not infringe such parties’ patents. To date, no infringement claims have been filed against us. We believe that hot lamination of plastic cards is a widely known process that is used by most card manufacturers. Even if it were determined that we are infringing such third party’s patents, we feel that we could use another process to laminate plastic cards and our business would not be materially affected.

Regardless of whether our products infringe on proprietary rights of third parties, infringement or invalidity claims may be asserted or prosecuted against us and we could incur significant expenses in defending them. If any infringement claims or actions are successfully asserted against us, we may be required to discontinue the use of certain processes, cease the manufacture, use and sale of infringing products and services, expend significant resources to develop non infringing technology, modify our products and services or seek licenses for these intellectual property rights. We may not be able to modify our products or obtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms, in a timely manner or at all. Our failure to do so could adversely affect our business by preventing us from selling some or all of our products. Adverse or protracted litigation or the failure to obtain necessary licenses or other rights could increase our expenses, as well as delay our increasing revenues, due to the possible devotion of significant financial and human resources in defending such litigation.

A security breach of our internal systems or those of our customers could harm our business by adversely affecting the market's perception of our products and services thereby causing our revenues to decline.

For us to penetrate further the marketplace, the marketplace must be confident that we provide effective security protection for national identity and other secured ID documents and cards. Although we have not experienced any act of sabotage or unauthorized access by a third party of our software or technology to date, if an actual or perceived breach of security occurs in our internal systems or those of our customers, regardless of whether we caused the breach, it could adversely affect the market's perception of our products and services. This could cause us to lose customers, resellers, alliance partners or other business partners thereby causing our revenues to decline. If we or our customers were to experience a breach of our internal systems, our business could be severely harmed by adversely affecting the market's perception of our products and services.

We may be exposed to significant liability for actual or perceived failure to provide required products or services which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our business by causing our revenues to decline and our costs to rise.

Products as complex as those we offer may contain undetected errors or may fail when first introduced or when new versions are released. Despite our product testing efforts and testing by current and potential customers, it is possible that errors will be found in new products or enhancements after commencement of commercial shipments. The occurrence of product defects or errors could result in adverse publicity, delay in product introduction, diversion of resources to remedy defects, loss of or a delay in market acceptance, or claims by customers against us, or could cause us to incur additional costs or lose revenues, any of which could adversely affect our business.

Because our customers rely on our products for critical security applications, we may be exposed to claims for damages allegedly caused to a customer as a result of an actual or perceived failure of our products. An actual or perceived breach of security systems of one of our customers, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to our products or solutions, could adversely affect our business reputation. Furthermore, our failure or inability to meet a customer's expectations in the performance of our services, or to do so in the time frame required by the customer, regardless of our responsibility for the failure, could result in a claim for substantial damages against us by the customer, discourage other customers from engaging us for these services, and damage our business reputation. We carry product liability insurance, but existing coverage may not be adequate to cover potential claims.

We carry product liability insurance, errors and omissions for high-technology companies insurance and insurance to guard against losses caused by employees' dishonesty. We believe that this insurance coverage is comparable to that of other similar companies in our industry. However, that insurance may not continue to be available to us on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or the insurer may disclaim coverage as to any future claim. We do not maintain insurance coverage for employee errors or security breaches, nor do we maintain specific insurance coverage for any interruptions in our business operations. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceed available insurance coverage, or changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductibles or co-insurance requirements, could adversely affect our business by increasing our costs.

Our efforts to expand our international operations are subject to a number of risks, any of which could adversely reduce our future international sales.

Most of our business to date has been in jurisdictions other than the United States and we plan to increase our international sales outside of the United States. Our inability to obtain or maintain federal or foreign regulatory approvals relating to the import or export of our products on a timely basis could adversely affect our ability to expand our international business. Additionally, our international operations could be subject to a number of risks, any of which could adversely affect our future international sales, including:

· increased collection risks;

· trade restrictions;

· export duties and tariffs;

· uncertain political, regulatory and economic developments;

· inability to protect our intellectual property rights;

· very aggressive competitors;

· lower gross margins in commercial sales in Hong Kong and China;

· business development in Hong Kong and China is time consuming and risky due to the uncertain political, regulatory and legal environment; and

· currency issues.

In addition, in many countries the national security organizations require our employees to obtain clearance before such employees can work on a particular transaction. Failure to receive, or delays in the receipt of, relevant foreign qualifications also could have a material adverse effect on our ability to obtain sales at all or on a timely basis. Additionally, as foreign government regulators have become increasingly stringent, we may be subject to more rigorous regulation by governmental authorities in the future. If we fail to adequately address any of these regulations, our business will be harmed.

The markets that we target for a substantial part of our future growth are in very early stages of development, and if they do not develop our business might not grow as much or as profitably as we hope.

Many of the markets that we target for our future growth are small or non-existent and need to develop if we are to achieve our growth objectives. If some or all of these markets do not develop, or if they develop more slowly than we anticipate, then we will not grow as quickly or profitably as we hope. For example, we are developing smart card products and services for the national government ID market.

Smart card technology has not been widely adopted by national governments, largely due to the cost of the necessary infrastructure and the relatively limited capabilities of previous microchips. We are investing in identification and security networks products and services, but so far we have not deployed our systems on a widespread basis. In 2005, our revenues from the government market totaled approximately $7,519,000 compared to $943,000 from the commercial market. As a general matter, our revenues in the commercial market are derived from sales of products that we adapted to the commercial market from the government market. Although we believe the government market is critical to our success in the short term, we believe that both the government and commercial markets will be critical to our long-term future success. The development of these markets will depend on many factors that are beyond our control, including the factors that are discussed in these Risk Factors. There can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to apply our expertise and solutions developed for the government market into the commercial market.

10

If smart card and highly secured document technology is not adopted in government and industry organizations, we may lose some of our existing customers and our business might not grow as much or as profitably as we hope.

Our ability to grow depends significantly on whether governmental and industrial organizations adopt smart card technology as part of their new standards and whether we will be able to leverage our expertise with government products into commercial products. If these organizations do not adopt smart card and highly secured document technology, then we might not be able to penetrate some of the new markets we are targeting, or we might lose some of our existing customer base. There also can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to apply our expertise and solutions developed for the public sector into the commercial market.

In order for us to achieve our growth objectives, smart card technology must be adopted in a variety of areas, including:

· bank credit and debit card systems, which in most countries have traditionally relied on magnetic stripe cards as their principal technology;

· computer equipment, which must include smart card readers as standard equipment if the use of smart cards for Internet and other applications is to become common;

· widely used digital signature information technology security systems;

· national identity card programs, which are considering smart cards with biometric technology;

· government issued passports and ID cards which include contactless smart card chips, which has been recently recommended as the new standard by International Committee of Aviation Organizations;

· transportation applications using cards as method of payment; and

· access control in such fields as education and health care.

Any or all of these areas may not adopt smart card technology.

We cannot accurately predict the future growth rate of this market, if any, or the ultimate size of the smart card technology market. The expansion of the market for our products and services depends on a number of factors such as:

· the cost, performance and reliability of our products and services compared to the products and services of our competitors;

· customers’ perception of the benefits of smart card solutions;

· public perceptions of the intrusiveness of these solutions and the manner in which organizations use the information collected;

· public perceptions regarding the confidentiality of private information;

· customers’ satisfaction with our products and services; and

· marketing efforts and publicity regarding our products and services.

Even if smart card solutions gain wide market acceptance, our products and services may not adequately address market requirements and may not gain wide market acceptance. If smart card solutions or our products and services do not gain wide market acceptance our business and our financial results will suffer.

We need to develop our position as a provider of systems and services to earn high margins from our technology and, if we are unable to develop such position, our business will not be as profitable as we hope, if profitable at all.

The increasing sophistication of smart card technology places a premium on providing innovative software systems and services to customers, in addition to manufacturing and supplying smart cards. While we have had some early success positioning ourselves as a provider of services and systems, we may not continue to be successful with this strategy and we may not be able to capture a significant share of the market for the sophisticated services and systems that we believe are likely to produce attractive margins in the future. A significant portion of the value of smart card technology lies in the development of operating systems and applications that will permit the use of smart cards in new markets. In contrast, the margins involved in manufacturing and selling smart cards can be relatively small, and might not be sufficient to permit us to earn an attractive return on our development investments.

11

If we are unable to keep up with rapid changes in smart card technology, our existing products and services could become obsolete and our revenues will decline.

The market for our products and services is marked by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and smart card technology enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in customer demands and evolving industry standards. New products and services based on new or improved technologies or new industry standards can render existing products and services obsolete and unmarketable. To succeed, we will need to enhance our current products and service offerings and develop new products and services on a timely basis to keep pace with developments related to smart card technology and to satisfy the increasingly sophisticated requirements of our customers. Any delays in developing and releasing enhanced or new products and services or in keeping pace with continuous technological change may cause us to lose our existing customer base.

The process of developing our products and services is extremely complex and requires significant continuing development efforts. Our investments in research and development have been considerable and may increase in the future. In order to earn an adequate return on these investments, we need to expand our sales significantly. We may not achieve our development objectives or expand our sales.

Various technical problems and resource constraints may impede the development, production, distribution and marketing of our products and services. In addition, laws, rules, regulations or industry standards may be adopted in response to these technological changes, which in turn, could materially and adversely affect how we will do business. Our continued participation in the market for governmental agencies may require the investment of our resources in upgrading our products and technology for us to compete and to meet regulatory and statutory standards. We may not have adequate resources available to us or may not adequately keep pace with appropriate requirements to compete effectively in the marketplace.

The time from our initial contact with a customer to a sale is long and subject to delays, which could result in the postponement of our receipt of revenues from one accounting period to the next, increasing the variability of our results of operations and causing significant fluctuations in our revenue from quarter to quarter.

Our financial and operating results have fluctuated in the past and our financial and operating results could fluctuate in the future from quarter to quarter for the following reasons:

· long customer sales cycles;

· reduced demand for our products and services;

· price reductions, new competitors, or the introduction of enhanced products or services from new or existing competitors;

· changes in the mix of products and services we or our distributors sell;

· contract cancellations, delays or amendments by customers;

· the lack of government demand for our products and services or the lack of government funds appropriated to purchase our products and services;

· unforeseen legal expenses, including litigation costs;

· expenses related to acquisitions;

· other non-recurring financial charges;

· the lack of availability or increase in cost of key components and subassemblies; and

· the inability to successfully manufacture in volume, and reduce the price of, certain of our products that may contain complex designs and components.

12

The period between our initial contact with a potential customer and the purchase of our products and services is often long and subject to delays associated with the budgeting, approval and competitive evaluation processes that frequently accompany significant capital expenditures, particularly by governmental agencies. The typical sales cycle for our government customers has to date ranged from three to 24 months and the typical sales cycle for our commercial customers has ranged from one to six months. A lengthy sales cycle may have an impact on the timing of our revenue, which may cause our quarterly operating results to fall below investor expectations. We believe that a customer's decision to purchase our products and services is discretionary, involves a significant commitment of resources, and is influenced by customer budgetary cycles. To successfully sell our products and services, we generally must educate our potential customers regarding their use and benefits, which can require significant time and resources. This significant expenditure of time and resources may not result in actual sales of our products and services.

The lead-time for ordering parts and materials and building many of our products can be many months. As a result, we must order parts and materials and build our products based on forecasted demand. If demand for our products lags significantly behind our forecasts, we may produce more products than we can sell, which can result in cash flow problems and write-offs or write-downs of obsolete inventory.

Our markets are highly competitive and competition could harm our ability to sell products and services and could reduce our market share.

The market for smart card and secured document products and services is intensely competitive. We expect competition to increase as the industry grows and as smart card technology begins to converge with the information technology industry. We may not be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors. We face competition from technologically sophisticated companies, many of which have substantially greater technical, financial, and marketing resources than us. In some cases, we compete with entities that have pre-existing relationships with potential customers. As the national documentation production market expands, we expect additional competitors to enter the market.

Some of our competitors and potential competitors have larger technical staffs, larger customer bases, more established distribution channels, greater brand recognition and greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do. Our competitors may be able to develop products and services that are superior to our products and services, that achieve greater customer acceptance or that have significantly improved functionality as compared to our existing and future smart card products and services. In addition, our competitors may be able to negotiate strategic relationships on more favorable terms than we are able to negotiate. Many of our competitors may also have well established relationships with our existing and prospective customers. Increased competition may result in our experiencing reduced margins, loss of sales or decreased market share.

The average selling prices for our products may decline as a result of competitive pricing pressures, promotional programs and customers who negotiate price reductions in exchange for longer-term purchase commitments. The pricing of products depends on the specific features and functions of the products, purchase volumes and the level of sales and service support required. As we experience pricing pressure, the average selling prices and gross margins for our products may decrease over product lifecycles. These same competitive pressures may require us to write down the carrying value of any inventory on hand, which would adversely affect our operating results and adversely affect our earnings per share.

We rely on the services of certain executive officers and key personnel, the loss of whom could adversely affect our operations by causing a disruption to our business.

Our future success depends largely on the efforts and abilities of our executive officers and senior management and other key employees, including technical and sales personnel. The loss of the services of any of these persons could disrupt our business until replacements, if available, can be found. We do not maintain any key-person insurance for any of our employees.

Our ability to remain competitive depends in part on attracting, hiring and retaining qualified technical personnel and, if we are not successful in such hiring and retention, our business could be disrupted.

Our future success depends in part on the availability of qualified technical personnel, including personnel trained in software and hardware applications within specialized fields. As a result, we may not be able to successfully attract or retain skilled technical employees, which may impede our ability to develop, install implement and otherwise service our software and hardware systems and to efficiently conduct our operations.

13

The information technology and network security industries are characterized by a high level of employee mobility and the market for technical personnel remains extremely competitive in certain regions, including Israel. This competition means there are fewer highly qualified employees available to hire, the costs of hiring and retaining such personnel are high and highly qualified employees may not remain with us once hired. Furthermore, there may be pressure to provide technical employees with stock options and other equity interests in us, which may dilute our earnings (loss) per share.

Additions of new personnel and departures of existing personnel, particularly in key positions, can be disruptive, might lead to additional departures of existing personnel and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our planned growth will place significant strain on our financial and managerial resources and may negatively affect our results of operations and ability to grow.

Our ability to manage our growth effectively will require us:

· to continue to improve our operations, financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures;

· to train, motivate and manage our employees; and

· as required, to install new management information systems.

Our existing management and any new members of management may not be able to augment or improve existing systems and controls or implement new systems and controls in response to anticipated future growth. If we are successful in achieving our growth plans, such growth is likely to place a significant burden on the operating and financial systems, resulting in increased responsibility for our senior management and other personnel.

Some of our products are subject to government regulation of radio frequency technology which could cause a delay or inability to introduce such products in the United States and other markets.

The rules and regulations of the United States Federal Communications Commission or, the "FCC" limit the radio frequency used by and level of power emitting from electronic equipment. Our readers, controllers and other radio frequency technology scanning equipment are required to comply with these FCC rules which may require certification, verification or registration of the equipment with the FCC. Certification and verification of new equipment requires testing to ensure the equipment's compliance with the FCC's rules. The equipment must be labeled according to the FCC's rules to show compliance with these rules. Testing, processing of the FCC's equipment certificate or FCC registration, and labeling may increase development and production costs and could delay introduction of our verification scanning device and next generation radio frequency technology scanning equipment into the U.S. market. Electronic equipment permitted or authorized to be used by the FCC through our certification or verification procedures must not cause harmful interference to licensed FCC users, and it is subject to radio frequency interference from licensed FCC users. Selling, leasing or importing non compliant equipment is considered a violation of FCC rules and federal law and violators may be subject to an enforcement action by the FCC. Any failure to comply with the applicable rules and regulations of the FCC could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial by increasing our costs due to compliance and/or limit our sales in the United States.

Conditions in Israel affect our operations in Israel and may limit our ability to sell our products and services.

We are incorporated under Israeli law and our manufacturing facility and research and development facility will continue to be located in Israel. Political, economic and military conditions in Israel will, accordingly, directly affect our operations. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its Arab neighbors and a state of hostility, varying in degree and intensity, has led to security and economic problems for Israel. Despite negotiations to effect peace between Israel and its Arab neighbors, the future of these peace efforts is uncertain. Since October 2000, there has been a significant increase in violence primarily in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority have ceased from time to time and there has been increased military activity characterized by some as war. More recently, violence has spread to Jerusalem and areas near Tel Aviv. Furthermore, several countries still restrict trade with Israeli companies, which may limit our ability to make sales in, or purchase components from, those countries. Any future armed conflict, political instability, continued violence in the region or restrictions could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

14

Our operations could be disrupted as a result of the obligation of management or key personnel to perform military service in Israel.

Generally, all nonexempt male adult citizens and permanent residents of Israel are obligated to perform annual military reserve duty and are subject to being called for active duty at any time under emergency circumstances.Currently, Israeli law requires most male Israeli citizens to perform military reserve duty annually until the age of 45. Generally, between five and ten, representing approximately 8% to 17%, of our officers and employees are at any one time obligated to perform annual reserve duty. We believe that a maximum of approximately 17% of our employees at any one time could be called for active duty under emergency circumstances. While we have operated effectively under these requirements since our incorporation, we cannot predict the full impact of such conditions on us in the future, particularly if emergency circumstances occur. If many of our employees are called for active duty, our operations in Israel and our business, results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the United States dollar and foreign currencies may affect our operating results.

We incur expenses for our operations in Israel in New Israeli Shekels (NIS) and translate these amounts into United States dollars for purposes of reporting consolidated results. As a result, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely affect our expenses and results of operations, as well as the value of our assets and liabilities. Fluctuations may adversely affect the comparability of period-to-period results. In addition, we hold foreign currency balances, primarily NIS, that will create foreign exchange gains or losses, depending upon the relative values of the foreign currency at the beginning and end of the reporting period, affecting our net income and earnings per share. Although we may use hedging techniques in the future (which we currently do not use), we may not be able to eliminate the effects of currency fluctuations. Thus, exchange rate fluctuations could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and stock price. In addition, future currency exchange losses may increase if we become subject to exchange control regulations restricting our ability to convert local currencies into United States dollars or other currencies.

We are exposed to special risks in foreign markets which may make it difficult in settling transactions and thereby force us to curtail our business operations.

In conducting our business in foreign countries, we are subject to political, economic, legal, operational and other risks that are inherent in operating in other countries. For instance, business development in Hong Kong and China is time consuming and risky due to the uncertain political, regulatory and legal environment. Other risks inherent to operating in other countries include range from difficulties in settling transactions in emerging markets to possible nationalization, expropriation, price controls and other restrictive governmental actions. We also face the risk that exchange controls or similar restrictions imposed by foreign governmental authorities may restrict our ability to convert local currency received or held by it in their countries into United States dollars or other currencies, or to take those dollars or other currencies out of those countries.

The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the continuing threat of global terrorism, have increased financial expectations that may not materialize.

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, and continuing concerns about global terrorism, may have created an increase in awareness for smart card security solutions generally. However, it is uncertain whether the actual level of demand for our products and services will grow as a result of such increased awareness. Increased demand may not result in an actual increase in our revenues. In addition, it is uncertain which security solutions, if any, will be adopted as a result of the terrorism and whether our products will be a part of those solutions. The efforts of the United States in the war against terrorism, the war in Iraq, and the post-war reconstruction efforts in Iraq, may actually delay funding for the implementation of security solutions generally in the United States. Even if our products are considered or adopted as solutions to the terrorism, the level and timeliness of available funding are unclear. These factors may adversely impact us and create unpredictability in revenues and operating results.

Our shareholders may face difficulties in the enforcement of civil liabilities against SuperCom Ltd. and its officers and directors.

Certain of our directors and our professional advisors are residents of Israel or otherwise reside outside of the United States. SuperCom Ltd. is incorporated under Israeli law and its principal office and facilities are located in Israel. All or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are or may be located outside of the United States. It may be difficult to effect service of process within the United States upon us or upon any such directors or professional advisors or to realize in the United States upon judgments of United States' courts predicated upon civil liability of SuperCom Ltd. or such persons under United States federal securities laws. We have been advised by our Israeli counsel that there is doubt as to whether Israeli courts would (i) enforce judgments of United States' courts obtained against SuperCom Ltd. or such directors or professional advisors predicated solely upon the civil liabilities provisions of United States' federal securities laws, or (ii) impose liabilities in original actions against SuperCom Ltd. or such directors and professional advisors predicated solely upon such United States' laws. However, subject to certain time limitations, Israeli courts will enforce foreign (including United States) final executory judgments for liquidated amounts in civil matters, obtained after due trial before a court of competent jurisdiction which recognizes similar Israeli judgments, provided that (1) due process has been observed, (2) such judgments or the execution thereof are not contrary to Israeli law, public policy, security or sovereignty, (3) such judgments were not obtained by fraud and do not conflict with any other valid judgment in the same matter between the same parties and (4) an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any Israeli court at the time the law suit is instituted in the foreign court.

15

We are unlikely to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We distributed a cash dividend to our shareholders on one occasion on August 26, 1997 in the aggregate amount of NIS 1 million and prior to that dividends in the form of bonus shares were distributed on two other occasions. We do not expect to declare or pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future and intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business.

With our ordinary shares being traded only on the OTC Bulletin Board or on the "pink sheets" in the United States, the liquidity of our ordinary shares in the United States may be limited.

Our ordinary shares trade on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States. If we were unable to have a quotation of our ordinary shares on the OTC Bulletin Board System, our shares will only be traded on the "pink sheet" market. Stocks in the OTC Bulletin Board or in the "pink sheet" market ordinarily have much lower trading volume than in other markets, such as the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or the Nasdaq National Market. Very few market makers take interest in shares traded over-the-counter, and accordingly the markets for such shares are less orderly than is usual for Nasdaq stocks. As a result of the low trading volumes ordinarily obtained in OTC Bulletin Board and "pink sheet" markets, sales of our ordinary shares in any significant amount could not be absorbed without a dramatic reduction in price. Moreover, thinly traded shares in the OTC Bulletin Board and in the "pink sheet" markets are more susceptible to trading manipulations than is ordinarily the case for more actively traded shares.

A significant number of our ordinary shares are or will be eligible for sale in the open market, which could reduce the market price for our ordinary shares and make it difficult for us to raise capital.

As of June 12, 2006 23,315,994 ordinary shares were outstanding. In addition, there were a total of 3,442,740 ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options. We have issued options to acquire ordinary shares to our employees and certain other persons at various prices, some of which have exercise prices below the current market price for our ordinary shares. As of June 12, 2006, our existing stock option plan had 965,706 ordinary shares available for future issuance. In December 2004, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) registering (i) 1,000,000 ordinary shares available for issuance upon exercise of stock options reserved for grant under the Option Plan, (ii) 3,494,315 ordinary shares issued or issuable upon exercise of options previously granted under the Option Plan, and (iii) 643,595 ordinary shares issued or issuable upon exercise of options previously granted under the 1999 Option Plan. As of June 12, 2006, we have also issued 4,393,747 warrants to acquire ordinary shares to investors and consultants, at various prices, which expire between 2009 to 2011. As of June 12, 2006 warrants to acquire only 1,144,853 ordinary shares had been exercised. In November, 2004, we registered up to 6,341,713 ordinary shares pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which include ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of our outstanding warrants. In January 2006, we registered up to 6,791,126 ordinary shares pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-1 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which include ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of our outstanding warrants.

The issuance of a large number of additional ordinary shares upon the exercise or conversion of outstanding options or warrants would cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders and could decrease the market price of our ordinary shares due to the sale of a large number of shares in the market, or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales, or the perception of possible sales, could also impair our ability to raise capital in the future.

16

"Penny stock" rules may make buying or selling our ordinary shares difficult, severely limiting the market price of our ordinary shares and the liquidity of our shares in the United States.

Trading in our ordinary shares will most likely be subject to the "penny stock" regulations adopted by the SEC. These regulations generally define a "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors, must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to execute the transaction. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require delivery, prior to any transaction involving a "penny stock," of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market. In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our stock, which could severely limit their market price and the liquidity of our stock.

Our ordinary shares are traded on more than one market and this may result in price variations.

Our ordinary shares are traded primarily on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States and on the Euronext Brussels stock market in Belgium. Trading in our ordinary shares on these markets is made in different currencies (US dollars on the OTC Bulletin Board and Euros on Euronext Brussels), and at different times (resulting from different time zones, different trading days and different public holidays in the United States and Belgium). Consequently, the trading prices of our ordinary shares on these two markets often differ. Any decrease in the trading price of our ordinary shares on one of these markets could cause a decrease in the trading price of our ordinary shares on the other market.

We have a stockholder that is able to exercise substantial influence over us and all matters submitted to our stockholders which may make us difficult to be acquired and less attractive to new investors.

Special Situations Fund III, L.P., or SSF, and its affiliates beneficially own, 5,114,037 of our ordinary shares, representing approximately 21.93% of our outstanding ordinary shares, based on 23,315,994 ordinary shares currently outstanding. In addition, SSF and its affiliates own warrants exercisable for an additional 1,411,290 ordinary shares. Such ownership interest gives SSF and its affiliates substantial influence over the outcome of all matters submitted to our stockholders, including the election of directors and the adoption of a merger agreement, and such influence could make us a less attractive acquisition or investment target. In addition, our officers and directors beneficially own a significant amount of our ordinary shares, which may have a similar effect as SSF' ownership of our ordinary shares.

If we trigger either the participation right granted to investors in our recent private placement or the anti-dilution provision contained in our warrants, our stockholders could suffer substantial dilution.

On December 9, 2005, we completed a private placement of 4,919,354 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares. The investors in this private placement were granted the right, for one year following the closing of the private placement and subject to certain limitations, to participate in future issuances of our capital stock or securities (a “Subsequent Financing”) up to an amount which would permit each investor to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Subsequent Financing (after giving effect to such Subsequent Financing). Additionally, all of the warrants offered in this private placement contain an anti-dilution mechanism whereby, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price of the warrants is automatically reduced to the lowest price per share at which the ordinary shares were issued or sold if we issue or sell any ordinary shares at a price per share less than the exercise price of the warrants (a “Trigger Issuance”). However, there is a cap on the number of ordinary shares that may be purchased by any warrant holder pursuant to this anti-dilution mechanism. Each warrant holder may purchase only such number of ordinary shares which would permit such holder to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Trigger Issuance (after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance). Accordingly, if we trigger either the participation right granted to the investors in the private placement or the anti-dilution provision contained in the warrants, our stockholders could suffer substantial dilution.

The number of ordinary shares which are available for sale upon exercise of our outstanding warrants and options is significant in relation to our currently outstanding ordinary shares and could cause downward pressure on the market price for our ordinary shares.

The number of ordinary shares registered for resale upon exercise of our outstanding warrants and options is significant in relation to the number of ordinary shares currently outstanding. If those warrantholders or optionholders determine to sell a substantial number of shares into the market at any given time, there may not be sufficient demand in the market to purchase the shares without a decline in the market price for our ordinary shares. Moreover, continuous sales into the market of a number of shares in excess of the typical trading volume for our ordinary shares, or even the availability of such a large number of shares, could depress the trading market for our ordinary shares over an extended period of time.

17

If persons engage in short sales of our ordinary shares, including sales of shares to be issued upon the exercise of our outstanding warrants and options, the price of our ordinary shares may decline.

Selling short is a technique used by a stockholder to take advantage of an anticipated decline in the price of a security. In addition, holders of options and warrants will sometimes sell short knowing they can, in effect, cover through the exercise of an option or warrant, thus locking in a profit. A significant number of short sales or a large volume of other sales within a relatively short period of time can create downward pressure on the market price of a security. Further sales of ordinary shares issued upon exercise of our outstanding warrants or options could cause even greater declines in the price of our ordinary shares due to the number of additional shares available in the market upon such exercise or conversion, which could encourage short sales that could further undermine the value of our ordinary shares. You could, therefore, experience a decline in the value of your investment as a result of short sales of our ordinary shares.

Being a foreign private issuer exempts us from certain SEC requirements.

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of rules promulgated under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). As such, we are exempt from certain provisions applicable to United States public companies including:

•the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K;

•the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of a security registered under the Exchange Act;

•the provisions of Regulation FD aimed at preventing issuers from making selective disclosures of material information;

•the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and establishing insider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction (i.e., a purchase and sale, or sale and purchase, of the issuer’s equity securities within less than six months);

Because of these exemptions, investors are not afforded the same protections or information generally available to investors holding shares in public companies organized in the United States.

ITEM 4.    Information on the Corporation.

A.    History and Development of the Corporation

SuperCom Ltd. was incorporated in Israel, as a company limited by shares, on July 4, 1988 pursuant to the provisions of the then-current Israeli Companies Ordinance. The legislative framework within which we now operate is the Israeli Companies Law, which became effective on February 1, 2000, and the Israeli Companies Ordinance (New Version) 1983, as amended (the "Companies Ordinance").

SuperCom Ltd. became a publicly-traded company on NASDAQEurope on April 19, 1999. On October 23, 2003, following the closing of the NASDAQEurope stock market, we transferred the listing of our shares to Euronext Brussels stock market under the symbol “SUP”. Since November 5, 2004 our ordinary shares have also traded on the OTC Bulletin Board market under the symbol “SPCBF.OB”.

From our incorporation in 1988 until 1999, we were a development-stage company primarily engaged in research and development, establishing relationships with suppliers and potential customers and recruiting personnel with a focus on the governmental market. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, we completed our reorganization plan that we began in 2001. According to such plan, we decided to add marketing and sales efforts on the commercial market with a new line of products, including SmartGate 2400, EduGate and DynaGate, while still maintaining our business in the governmental market.

18

In December 2002, we discontinued the operations of two subsidiaries, Genodous Inc. and Kromotek, Inc., and disposed of all assets related to such subsidiaries. The operations and cash flows of those two subsidiaries have been eliminated from our operations. We have no intention of continuing our activity in such subsidiaries. Our plan of discontinuance involved (i) termination of all employees related to those subsidiaries, including payment of all statutory and contractual severance sums, by the end of the fourth quarter of 2002, and (ii) disposal of the equipment owned by such subsidiaries.

During the period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005, our capital expenditures totaled approximately $315,000 (compared to $1,088,000 during 2004 and $87,000 during 2003), of which approximately $293,000 (compared to $1,017,000 during 2004 and $78,000 during 2003) was expended at or upon SuperCom's facilities in Israel, and approximately $22,000 (compared to $71,000 during 2004 and $9,000 during 2003) was expended upon various facilities of SuperCom's subsidiaries outside Israel. Of these expenditures, approximately $48,000 during 2005 (compared to $41,000 during 2004 and $66,000 during 2003) was for capital equipment and leasehold improvements and the balance of approximately $267,000 (compared to $1,047,000 during 2004 and $21,000 during 2003 and $40,000 during 2002) was related to information technology.

On November 17, 2003, we purchased the remaining 20% of the shares that we did not own of SuperCom Asia Pacific from the minority shareholder in consideration of a payment of approximately $70,000.

All of the above expenditures were paid from cash generated from our initial public offering.

During fiscal 2002, we sold in three separate transactions with third party purchasers our entire equity interest in our subsidiary, InkSure Technologies, Inc., (“InkSure”), for which we received aggregate proceeds of approximately $6,600,000 from the sale of its shares. During 2003, we did not make any significant capital divestitures nor are any such divestitures in progress. Other than further capital expenditures of the types and consistent with the amounts described above, there are no significant capital expenditures in progress by us.

In February 2006, we announced the introduction of a new technology and solution for active tracking of people and assets, and the establishment of a new subsidiary Pure RF Inc, which will focus on this growing market.

We filed a Registration Statement under the Exchange Act on Form 20-F on July 29, 2004 which became effective 60 days thereafter. At such time, we became a foreign private issuer reporting company under the Exchange Act. Our ordinary shares began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States on November 5, 2004.

Our head office and principal place of business is located at Sagid House “Hasharon Industrial Park” P.O.B 5039, Qadima 60920 Israel, and our telephone number is +972-9-8890800. Our internet address is http://www.supercomgroup.com. The information contained on our corporate website is not a part of this Annual Report.

Our agent for SEC matters in the United States is SuperCom, Inc., whose address is: 2010 Corporate Ridge, Suite 700 McLean, VA 22102-7838.

B.    Business Overview

Business Overview

We are a smart card technology company that designs, develops and markets advanced smart card technologies and products for the governmental and commercial secured identification markets. With an embedded microcontroller, smart cards have the unique ability to store large amounts of data, perform on-card functions, such as encryption, and interact intelligently with a smart card reader. Smart cards connect to a smart card reader through either direct physical contact or a remote contactless radio frequency interface. We function as a "one-stop" technological integration and support source for smart card system integrators, utilizing our know-how and technologies. We develop and market a wide range of complementary technologies and solutions for the smart card market, including customizable smart cards, smart card-related products, proprietary smart card production technologies, and advanced identification, or ID, technologies, complemented by brand protection and authentication technologies. We also sell specially designed kits containing the raw materials necessary to produce cards and smart cards.

19

We believe that our core strengths are as follows:

· Smart card technology integration know-how;

· High security solution integration;

· Proprietary smart card technologies and products;

· Expertise in multi-application smart cards; and

· Extensive experience with the government ID market.

Our objective is to become a leading provider of high-end smart card systems by marketing our extensive technological know-how, advanced technologies and value-added products and applications for government and commercial smart cards in the secured identification and access control markets, worldwide. We intend to continue to participate in governmental ventures. We plan to also increase our sales efforts to the US Department of Homeland Security, state, local governments and to commercial markets through our distribution channels, with the leading distributors in the homeland security market.

We will seek to market our products and proprietary technologies to position us as:

· A horizontal smart card technology provider and integrator with the ability to respond to complex security and multi-application smart card system challenges; and

· A provider of a combination of unique and traditional smart cards and complementary smart card-related products, which, as applicable, will be sold "off-the-shelf" as complete solutions.

There can be no assurance as to whether we shall achieve our objective, the degree of our growth, if any, in the commercial market or whether we shall achieve our desired market position.

Recent Developments

In June 2006, we announced that we won a tender for the issuance of fire-arm license IDs and the licensing of guards to carry fire arms, with the Israeli Ministry of the Interior. The project is worth up to $500,000. This is the second time that we have been awarded a fire-arm license tender in Israel, following an initial award of $200,000 in 2003. 

In May 2006, we announced that our US Subsidiary, SuperCom, Inc., had received a United States General Services Administration (GSA), Federal Supply Schedule Contract for its products including its Homeland Security and First responder product line.  This contract award enables all U.S. federal and state agencies to buy SuperCom products from a GSA-approved price list with agreed upon terms and conditions.

As a GSA business partner, SuperCom and the GSA will proceed to form a marketing partnership. GSA Schedules provide a direct and effective procurement vehicle that satisfies the Government’s extensive requirements with simple administrative processes that significantly reduce the time and expense of acquisition, for both the contractor and the federal customer.

In April 2006, we announced that we have received a $600,000 follow-on order from a West European government. The order is expected to be delivered during 2006 and follows the successful completion of E-Passport and the first stage of an eID project for the European government.

In April 2006, we announced that we have received a follow-on order from one of our governmental customers, following the successful implementation of an e-ID system that was delivered to the customer in 2005.

20

The contract, which includes raw materials supply, maintenance and software support services over a period of 5 years starting from the first quarter of 2006, is valued at $1.25 million.

In March 2006, we announced plans for Eyal Tuchman, Chief Financial Officer of Supercom over the past three years, to succeed Avi Schechter as Chief Executive Officer in April 2006. Mr. Schechter will continue to serve as a consultant for the Company.

In February 2006, we announced the introduction of a new technology for the tracking of people and assets, and the establishment of a new subsidiary in the U.S., Pure RF Inc., which will focus on this growing market.

The new technology expands our homeland security offerings through a Wireless Asset Tracking System for strategic and high value items. This offering will be provided to customers through the new subsidiary. The development of this new technology, as well as the establishment of the new subsidiary, is due to the growing market demand for asset tracking solutions in general and particularly in the homeland security market.

SuperCom’s “Pure RF™” Movement Detection Solution monitors and tracks large number of items simultaneously, providing  an active set of different signals and alerts. The software and hardware solution employs small, low-powered radio frequency (“RF”) tags attached to an object or a person. License-free radio bands are used to track the RF band from a base transmitter that is programmable for periodic or event-driven transmissions. “Pure RF™” can monitor and locate tagged items through a hand-held tracking device, which can also be integrated into cellular phones.

In February 2006, we announced that R. James Woolsey, former Director of Central Intelligence and one of America’s preeminent authorities on security issues, will be Chairman of our newly created Advisory Board.

The Advisory Board was established to enhance our presence in the United States and other nations, and to help identify new applications for our technologies in the homeland security, defense and document authentication markets.

In an era when both government and the private sector are faced with unprecedented challenges to protect public safety and personal privacy, the Advisory Board will serve to extend our forward-looking technologies into the U.S. market.

Mr. Woolsey will be joined on the Advisory Board by other distinguished Americans with experience in national security issues.  Additional Advisory Board members will be announced in the near future.

In January 2006, we announced an award of a tender to provide the technology for a biometric passport issuing and control system for a country in western Europe. The implementation of the project is expected to start during first quarter of 2006.

The contract is for the implementation of a biometric passport issuing and control system, and includes a six-year contract for maintenance and support.

In November and December of 2005, we received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,050,000 from a private placement to certain investors of 4,919,354 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The private placement was made to accredited investors without general solicitation or marketing pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to foreign private investors in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. In connection with the private placement, our placement agent received a cash fee of $150,000 and our placement advisors received five-year warrants to purchase 49,677 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The investors in this private placement were granted the right, for one year following the closing of the private placement and subject to certain limitations, to participate in future issuances of our capital stock or securities (a “Subsequent Financing”) up to an amount which would permit each investor to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Subsequent Financing (after giving effect to such Subsequent Financing). Additionally, all of the warrants offered in this private placement contain an anti-dilution mechanism whereby, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price of the warrants is automatically reduced to the lowest price per share at which the ordinary shares were issued or sold if we issue or sell any ordinary shares at a price per share less than the exercise price of the warrants (a “Trigger Issuance”). However, there is a cap on the number of ordinary shares that may be purchased by any warrant holder pursuant to this anti-dilution mechanism. Each warrant holder may purchase only such number of ordinary shares which would permit such holder to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Trigger Issuance (after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance). The warrants are callable, subject to certain limitations, at our option if the closing bid price per ordinary share of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $1.20 for 20 trading days during the term of the warrants. We may however only call, in any 3-month period, the lesser of (i) 20% of the aggregate amount of the warrants initially issued to a warrant holder, or (ii) the total number of warrants then held by such holder.

21

During the second half of 2005, our Vend-EZ(TM) contactless smart card-based cashless purchasing solution was approved by one of world's largest consumer products companies for use in its vending machines in the United States. We are going to re-evaluate our marketing and sales efforts with regard to this solution by the beginning of the year 2007.

In May, 2005 we received our first order for our SmartDSMS product from the city of Columbus, Ohio, which assists users in managing recovery operations. The solution was deployed during the second quarter of 2005.

On May 5, 2005, the U.S. Government Printing Office (“GPO”) issued a Notice of Termination for Convenience involving our participation in the three-phase testing of technology for a new electronic passport project. While an earlier termination notice was withdrawn after discussions with theGPO, our attempts to persuade the GPO to withdraw the current termination notice have been unsuccessful.  The notice terminates our contract awards for the Electronic Passport Program. While the termination notice does not specify the reason for its issuance, we understand from our discussions with the GPO that it is based on unresolved security concerns and not related to our technological solution or our cost proposal.

On March 24, 2005, we terminated our agreement with Intercomsoft relating to the national documentation project in Moldova. Under the terms of the termination agreement, we will supply equipment, consumables and software directly to the Moldovan government. We have not, however, entered into a contract with the Moldovan government. We are being paid by the Moldavian per purchase order. We do not expect any significant changes in our revenues as a result of the termination of such agreement.

In January 2005, we announced that we have signed an agreement with the government of a European country to deploy a biometric visa issuance system in its embassies throughout the world. The project’s first stage that has an estimated value of approximately $500,000.

We have introduced the following new products since December 2004:

· Biometrics Visa. The biometric visa system is built on our proprietary platform technology and is tailored to meet the customer’s specific requirements. The integrated system captures the fingerprints of each visa applicant and stores the images on a chip integrated in each visa, enabling automatic and positive identification of the person each time the visa is used. This end-to-end solution meets all International Civil Aviation Organization (“ICAO”) standards for visas and passports.

· Smart Disaster Site Management System - SmartDSMS. SmartDSMS is a comprehensive solution for facilitating the authentication and flow of on-site personnel in disaster recovery operations.  Built on our patented DynaGate technology, the wireless mobile units are specifically designed to monitor the movement of credentialed individuals throughout the disaster area. 

· Vend -EZ. The Vend-EZ enables vending machines with a smart card reader and a specialized controller to support smart transactions with Contactless Smart Cards.

· RF Tag. The RF tag is a technology that can monitor and locate tagged items through a hand-held tracking device. The active RF tags solution is able to track hundreds of items simultaneously, providing an alert when a tagged item is removed from a pre-determined area tacking through a marked checkpoint or otherwise moves in an unexpected manner.

Please refer to “The Market—Products and New Technology” below for more information about these products.

The Market

Our Market Opportunity

Many industries are rapidly adopting smart cards due to their enhanced security features. One reason for this move is the ability to use smart cards for multiple purposes. In today's world, mobile phones are used not only for communication, but also for mobile commerce. Credit cards are used as loyalty cards and as a means of authenticating e-commerce transactions. Transportation payment cards at once support multiple transportation providers and function as debit cards for select retailers. Smart cards can carry personal information for identification purposes, biometric data for physical access control, and digital signatures for network security.

A smart card is a card that stores information on an integrated circuit chip embedded within the card, rather than on a magnetic strip on the surface. While a typical magnetic strip card stores approximately 212 bytes of information, generally consisting of limited data, a smart card can store 64 kilobytes or more of information, which is many times more than a traditional magnetic stripe credit card. Additionally, the integrated circuit within a smart card serves as a central processing unit which, combined with its memory capacity, facilitates the use of encryption applications, which secure data and value exchanges within networks and the Internet. Smart cards also permit bi-directional authentication, which means that in addition to authenticating the identity of the user, the card can authenticate the validity of the intended party or device prior to exchanging information or value.

Due to the need for more secure identification and authentication, and the ability to incorporate multi-application features, there has been a shift towards adapting high-end smart card systems in both governmental and commercial market segments. Governments are seeking to move away from their traditional paper-based identification systems, and commercial entities are also shifting their secured systems away from basic, low memory single application cards.

The demand for increasingly complicated smart card systems with novel technological abilities, combined with increased pressure for cost-effective systems, has fostered the emergence of multiple entrants in the smart card market, each specializing in specific aspects of smart card production, software or technology. However, the complexity and sheer volume of these specialized providers have generated an outcome opposite to the market's needs. This specialization has required a growing number of entities to become involved in a single project, thereby causing longer timelines, higher costs, and less optimized solutions.

Security, Cost Reduction and Smart Cards

Governments and commercial entities control and mass-produce various types of identification documents and cards, such as passports, visas, drivers' licenses, and national or contactless smart cards. Such documents and cards generally provide their owners with the ability to exercise special rights, obtain benefits, effect commercial transactions, or cross otherwise restricted borders. As a result of their importance, identification cards and related documents are often forged or altered. The costs associated with such fraud, for both victims and law enforcement agents, are significant. Consequently, governments and commercial organizations are seeking solutions that will heighten security, reduce costs associated with forged or fraudulent identification documentation and enable cost-effective production of secure and durable documentation.

Technological Developments

As an additional means of detecting fraud, identification systems increasingly use biometric data, which are unique biological characteristics such as fingerprints and facial images, to verify personal identity and other personal information, such as medical and financial information. For example, our identification system includes a person's fingerprint as verification of a person's identity. The inclusion of this information in cards or documents for on-line or real-time verification is particularly important for identification cards as they are often used in commercial transactions.

Political Developments

The growth in the national identification documentation market has been fueled by geopolitical developments including the disintegration of several federal states (such as the former Soviet Union), the subsequent emergence of newly independent nations, and the creation of regional communities (such as the European Union). We believe that these political developments have created significant opportunities as an increasing number of governments are seeking to create digital population registry databases and cost-effective, secure and durable national identification documentation. Since the events of September 11, 2001, we have observed increased interest in government ID projects. Over the past year alone, we have submitted a number of proposals to governments, including the Israeli and other governments, to spearhead national identification documentation projects.

23

Authentication and Security of Documents

Today, with the help of advanced printing technologies, counterfeiters can produce most of the current identification documents that exist in the world. Governments and security agencies worldwide are considering the use of national ID documents with a high level of security as a method to control terrorism after the events of September 11, 2001. Our printing production and security technologies provide governments and their law enforcement agencies advanced and highly secure ID documents that help reduce and detect counterfeited ID documents. There can be no assurances, however, that governments and security agencies will adopt national ID documents or that if adopted that our technology will be compatible with the technology adopted or that such documentation could not counterfeited.

Our Strategy

We are a provider of high-end tracking solutions for people, assets and objects. We believe that the government and commercial sectors are moving towards the more functional and broader applications that a smart card solution can provide over traditional methods. We are positioning ourselves to become a key player in government and commercial smart card markets as a result of our ability to function as a one-stop shop for cost-effective high-end smart card systems. Our objective is to become a leading provider of high-end smart card systems by marketing our extensive technological know-how, advanced technologies and value-added products and applications for government and commercial smart cards in the secured identification and access control markets, worldwide.

While there can be no assurance that we shall achieve our goal, in whole or in part, we intend to achieve our goal by:

Extending Technological Recognition

We believe that our customized systems, proprietary printing and production technologies, software packages and integration capabilities will enable us to position ourselves as a key technological player in the secured identification document/card market. There can be no assurance, however, that we shall become such a key technological player.

Leveraging Technology/Know-How Into Complementary Markets

We intend to leverage our core technologies and know-how in order to respond to the needs of existing and potential customers. These technologies involve document authentication and registry database systems. We intend to tailor our marketing and sales efforts so as to integrate such technologies into the actual solutions offered to our governmental and commercial customers. There can be no assurance, however, that we shall be successful in these efforts.

Expansion of the Contactless Smart Card Business

We believe that the picture identification contactless smart card represents the next generation of national identification documentation and anticipate increasing demand for this technology from our existing and potential customer base. We have positioned ourselves to service this demand through the development of our smart card production line technology. We intend to become a key player in the supply of contactless smart cards to the governmental and commercial markets, and are consequently investing in research and development to enhance our contactless smart card technologies in order to satisfy end-user requirements. There are two aspects of the expanding commercial market: (i) new applications and (ii) replacement of low-end magnetic stripe cards with contactless smart cards with security features. There can be no assurance that we shall become a key player in the governmental and commercial smart card markets.

Leveraging Public Sector Expertise Into Commercial Applications

We believe that significant commercial possibilities exist for our secure and durable document/card production solutions that we developed for the public sector. We have completed the process of leveraging our expertise in the production of picture identification contactless smart cards for the public sector, and now provide solutions for commercial applications of such technology with requirements similar to those in the public sector, such as private or corporate identification cards, medical cards and benefits administration. There can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to apply our expertise and solutions developed for the public sector into the commercial market.

Penetrating New Markets

We intend to increase our penetration of existing markets by leveraging our current products and systems to new applications and new vertical markets, which can be used to produce various types of documents and cards. We will also seek to leverage our existing relationships and established reputation in new markets. We have initiated entry into geographic markets upon which we have not traditionally focused, such as the United States. There can be no assurance, however, that our efforts will achieve their objectives.

24

Seeking Partnerships With Other Relevant Companies

We intend to continue to obtain and sell many of our products through strategic alliance and supplier agreements in which we act as subcontractors or suppliers to the primary integrator or contractor. We will also seek new strategic partners to market our products in order to expand geographic markets and, possibly, to produce or develop our products in a more cost-effective manner. There can be no assurances that we will be able to maintain our existing strategic partnerships or enter into new strategic partnerships in the future.

Research and Development

Our past research and development efforts have helped us to achieve the goal of offering our customers a complete line of products and solutions. We spent $0.9 million, $0.8 million and $1.2 million on research and development in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. These amounts were spent on the development or improvement of our technologies and products, primarily in the areas of an automatic contactless smart card production line, data capture, management software, population registry software packages, security printing, contactless smart cards and document authentication. We will continue to research and develop new security and identification features through laser printing and pre-printing, create new personalization methods for contactless smart cards, develop a range of smart card applications, continue to develop our automatic contactless smart card production line, SmartSMDS, E-Passport and new technology for active tracking solutions. There can be no assurance that we can achieve any or all of our research and development goals.

Products and New Technology

Since our inception in 1988, we have been involved in the development of advanced technologies for the national documentation market. In view of the increasing demand for identification cards that are based on contactless smart card technologies, we have developed a fully automated production line for picture identification contactless smart cards. We also offer to our customers raw materials and maintenance and service agreements. Today, we have three major groups of solutions for our customers that are organized as separate marketing divisions:

· Our credentialing solutions provide ID solutions for governments, commercial sectors and contactless smart card production equipment for the governmental and commercial markets;

· Our homeland security “SmartDSMS” provides solution for facilitating the authentication and flow of on-site personnel in disaster recovery operations; and 

· Our new tracking technology using RF tags can monitor and locate tags items through a hand-held tracking device.

Contactless Smart Cards

Our contactless smart cards are customizable, machine-readable smart cards designed for a broad range of commercial and governmental applications. From traditional ID documents to modern e-commerce cards, our contactless smart cards carry large quantities of data, securely stored in a sealed microchip and are read using our Smart Card Reader. The cards come in different sizes and can incorporate virtually any chip on the market. For increased durability, the cards are constructed from Teslin®, an ultra-thin material that resists abrasion. The cards are suitable for many existing and future applications, such as e-identity verification, contactless credit cards, loyalty cards, health cards, financial sector cards, transportation cards and others. Our customers are using the cards as loyalty cards as part of our EduGate and SmartGate systems and as financial sector cards.

We have designed and developed what we believe are unique technologies for the production of our proprietary contactless smart card. The smart card is a pre-fabricated multi-layered Teslin ® and polyester card that contains a radio frequency antenna and a programmable memory chip. Each smart card is personalized, including the initialization of its memory chip, in order to produce a particular contactless smart card. The design of the contactless smart card minimizes the number of steps necessary to produce smart cards because our proprietary printing technology allows customers to print directly onto multiple pages of the smart card. The smart card uses read/write memory chips supplied by third parties with a capacity that ranges from one to eight kilobytes and contains an installed "on-board" operating system. This allows customers to re-program the chip following initialization, thereby adding, removing or updating applications and data without the need to replace the chip.

25

We have also developed the contactless smart card Production Line 1000 (“SPPL 1000-A”), a technology designed for the mass production of secure and durable picture identification contactless smart cards. The SPPL 1000-A is an automated smart card inlet production line produces the inlet that contains the chip and an antenna that carries the secure, personalized data in the finished card, which is the core of the contactless smart card. Producing a continuous reel of inlets, the SPPL 1000-A increases throughput and reduces waste. Utilizing our universal chip packaging, it can accommodate virtually any chip on the market.

Our SPPL 1000-B automated contactless smart card and pouch production line (“SPPL 1000-B”) produces the highly durable casing for our inlet, including, finished and personalized smart card or our pouches. The SPPL 1000-B uses pre-printed ultra-strong Teslin® pages to produce high quality color smart cards laminated with additional protective layers of polyester. The SPPL 1000-B accepts continuous reels of our smart card inlets, thereby maximizing flexibility and cost efficiency.

Contactless Smart Card Reader/Writer - 5600 Series

Our Contactless Smart Card Readers/Writers are devices that transfer data to and from contactless smart cards. Our Contactless Smart Card Readers/Writers are easily integrated with devices such as vending machines, access gates and hand-held terminals. Unlike readers/writers that require direct contact between the card and reader, SuperCom Contactless Smart Card Readers/Writers operate by radio frequency technology, which allows the transmission of data by simply holding the card near the reader. The ability to read cards without physical contact speeds reaction time and prolongs the life of both the smart card and the reader/writer. In addition, given that the 5600 Series Reader/Writer has no moving parts, maintenance and cost of ownership are considerably reduced.

Smart Card 8500 Series

Our Smart Card 8500 Series offers more features than our other smart cards. These smart cards are color personalized, highly durable, and may be produced at remote issuing stations by customers using our equipment. In addition, the 8500 Series' smart cards are designed to meet our customer’s specifiedsize and thickness standards regardless of the size of the chip the customer chooses. The 8500 Series' smart cards may incorporate a variety of security features such as ID pictures and holograms, hidden features detectable by ultraviolet lamps or two-dimensional bar-code readers, and proprietary features that require special forensic equipment for authentication. Customers can select the security level required for each card, creating customized security solutions for different ID types.

Security Printing

We have developed fully automated production lines that allow for rapid mass production of generic pouches and personalized cards. Our ability to produce generic pouches is important because such pouches may be personalized through our proprietary transfer printing technology at a later stage. This provides customers with the option to decentralize the mass production of cards by manufacturing pouches in a centralized location and distributing them to sites (such as regional documentation issuing sites or embassies) where the pouch is personalized and the final card is produced.

Transfer Process Printing

Our proprietary transfer printing technology, which is patented in five jurisdictions, including the United States, Europe and Hong Kong, allows us to print captured data on booklets and pouches regardless of the size, design, type, thickness or lamination method used. This technology offers the customer the option of combining the security of personalized pouches and pre-sewn laminated booklets with the durability of laser printing in a cost-effective manner. The ability to affix data on any size pouch or booklet provides us with a competitive advantage as governments often purchase quantities of different types of blank passport booklets and pouches in bulk and desire the ability to produce durable passports and similar documents in various formats while utilizing their entire existing stock of booklets and cards. Our technology allows the printing of personalized data on multiple passport pages in the same step. This allows additional security data to be included in a passport without incurring a substantial increase in the cost of producing each booklet.

Teslin Printing

A growing segment of the national identification documentation market uses Teslin® as its primary printing substrate. Teslin® is a polymer that was developed and patented in the United States. We purchase all of the Teslin® used in our business from the sole manufacturer of this product. Teslin® has been identified by the identification documentation production industry as a potential substrate because of its high absorption level, attractive print stability, and plastic-like flexibility and durability. Teslin®, however, is extremely sensitive to high temperatures. This renders useless any conventional printing technique based on extreme heat, such as laser printing. In addition, Teslin® is not receptive to ink jet printing. The practice adopted by the national identification production industry is to use thick pieces of Teslin® coated with various chemicals in order to increase its resistance to heat. This process, however, makes the cards more vulnerable to damage, thus vitiating the very attractiveness of Teslin®. We offer our customers the ability to print on Teslin® using high quality color laser printers. Our use of laser printing provides us with an important competitive advantage given that laser printing can retain functional stability for up to 10 years, as opposed to ink jet or thermal transfer technology printing, which are generally stable for only two to five years.

Our solution features a production process in which laser printing is controlled by proprietary software than the typical heat and pressure process. This solution makes laser printing possible on extremely thin layers of uncoated Teslin®, which maximizes durability while minimizing the possibility of forgery or tampering. We also utilize our Teslin® printing capability for the production of picture identification contactless smart cards in order to make such cards significantly more durable.

Software Packages

Our software packages are designed for data collection and management, and capturing and encoding various types of data in a personal digitized file. This facilitates control over the data printing process and storage of digitized files at either a remote site or central registry. The packages can handle all types of data ranging from images captured through live video, photo or color scanning to biometric information, including palm geometry, fingerprints and facial recognition. The packages are configurable with all types of database software, can be used with all commercially available platforms, including mainframe computers and UNIX servers, can support multiple document types and printers and can operate in Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows NT environments.

Our proprietary software integrates these data capture technologies with a PC-based workstation in a modular configuration, allowing for the easy establishment and operation of multiple data collection stations and provision of customer-specific solutions. In addition, our software enables data capture workstation operators to control the image capture process exclusively through the keyboard and to calibrate multiple units of image capture equipment through one centralized workstation.

Raw Materials

We sell specially designed kits containing the raw materials necessary to produce some of our products, including silicon sheets, polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”) and Teslin®. Among the raw materials we sell are plastics, various printing substrates, toners and printing drums. Although not all of these materials incorporate our technologies, they include components necessary for the operation of certain of our systems. In some cases, our customer agreements require that customers purchase raw materials from us for the production of documents and cards exclusively for the term of the agreement.

Electronic Passport Technology

Our electronic passport solution provides a smart inlay, which can be included in the front or back cover of the passport, in the middle page or adjoining the personalization page.

Our ePassport solution is based upon the following areas of products and expertise:

· Smart Inlay for ePassport

Our smart inlay is flexible, highly durable and uses an operating system fully compatible with the ICAO and International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”) standards. Our inlay passed several extensive tests that exceed the normal use of a passport with embedded technology. Our ePassport inlay can be included in the front or back cover, in the middle page or adjoining the personalization page.

The end-to-end solution meets all ICAO standards for visas and passports.

EduGate

EduGate is an access control and attendance system designed to combat school truancy. The system allows school personnel to record and automatically report students' entry or exit by using a system of smart cards and smart card readers while a remote central computer compiles data about students' attendance. An optional feature is PhoneGate, an automated system that contacts parents by email or text messaging if their child is absent from school.

DynaGate

DynaGate is a portable smart card reader and data collection device that can also be integrated into our EduGate system. It utilizes the Dynamic Access Control (“DAC”) concept (patent pending in the United States and Israel) to enable school personnel to check, record and automatically report a student's entry or exit using a specially designed mobile reader. The school's main management system records activity and automatically notifies parents of their child's absence from school.

SmartGate 2400

Security and identification authorization are important concerns for businesses and individuals alike. SmartGate 2400 is an integrated solution for these concerns, providing secured access control to targeted environments using contactless smart cards, controllers and readers. These units are programmed according to client specifications and carry an array of personalization and security features. The multi-application system can be integrated into a variety of environments, including office buildings, residential buildings, nursing homes, hospitals, universities and schools.

Smart Disaster Site Management System - SmartDSMS

SmartDSMS is a comprehensive solution for facilitating the authentication and flow of on-site personnel in disaster recovery operations.  Built on our patented DynaGate technology, the wireless mobile units are specifically designed to monitor the movement of credentialed individuals throughout the disaster area.  The wireless solution provides the capability of transmission of data over distances exceeding ten miles in and around debris and buildings.

As a modular solution, it is intended for mobility and can easily be moved from one disaster site to the next. Once deployed, these self-contained units monitor access to sensitive areas, log personnel traffic into and out of the site and facilitate real-time reporting. The system records all access requests and assists in the personnel management of disaster recovery efforts by ensuring controlled access and reliable real-time reports that account for all personnel at the disaster site, and grants or denies access into restricted zones based on the security profile.

By utilizing DynaGate, a mobile wireless access control system, every entrance is managed and documented at the disaster site.  The local first responders to the disaster area are pre-badged prior to any emergency.  Other personnel are provided with badges at the on-site enrollment station. Advantages of this “smart” solution include the ability to store personal data on the card such as fingerprint, blood type, allergies and emergency contact information and an authorization level to each DynaGate access zone station.  Access data is maintained in real-time on a central server.

Customers and Projects

Passports and ID Card—Africa

In April 2003, we entered into an agreement with the Security, Immigration and Refugees Affaires Authority of an African country in connection with passports and other travel documentation project in such African country. The agreement has a term of five years. Pursuant to the agreement, we will supply the customer with equipment and raw materials necessary for the production of passports and other travel documents as required from time to time under the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, the customer is required to pay us for the equipment and the raw materials that we supply in the aggregate amount of $1.6 million. In 2003, we generated $ 536,000 in revenues. During 2004 and 2005, we generated $261,000 and $240,000 respectively, in revenues pursuant to this agreement.

Passports and Id Smart Cards—Ukraine

In September 1999, a consortium led by us was awarded a contract from the Ukrainian government for a national passport and ID smart card project. Over the course of the project, we were engaged to supply technology, production equipment and raw materials for the issuance of passports and ID smart cards. In April 2001, we signed the first phase of this agreement, which provided the Ukrainian government with a central production system for issuing Ukrainian passports and finished the initial implementation phase. During 2002, we began the delivery of the first phase of the Ukraine ID Project (the “Ukraine ID Project”) and generated revenues of $2.1 million. During 2003, we generated an aggregate of $1.97 million in revenues from the Ukraine ID Project.

In April 2004, we were informed by the International Commercial Arbitration Court at the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (“Arbitration Court”) that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a statement of claim to declare the Contract No. 10/82, dated April 9, 2002 between SuperCom and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine as void due to defaults in the tender proceedings under which the Ukraine Contract had been awarded to SuperCom. On July 22, 2004 we were informed by the law firm representing us in the arbitration proceedings that on July 19, 2004, the Arbitration Court had issued a negative award declaring the Ukraine Contract as void. We strongly believe that the award is wrong due to many defaults that occurred in the arbitration proceedings. On April 27, 2005 we challenged the validity of the award in the High Commercial Court of Ukraine. In May 2005 we were informed by the Arbitration Court that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a new statement of claim for restitution of $1,047,740 paid to us by the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry. On September 27, 2005, we received a negative award by the Arbitration Court. On December 12, 2005 we were informed that the Supreme Court of Ukraine had dismissed our appeal regarding the July 2004 decision. Based on the opinion of our legal advisors, we strongly believe that such award is wrong, that the claim has no merit and that there have been serious violations of the arbitration proceedings, therefore no provision was set-up in the financial statements in respect to the claim for restitution of $1,047,740. However, due to the developments described above we wrote off inventory in an amount of approximately $287,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005 and took possession of the remaining inventory that was previously delivered to the customer. In 2003, we increased the allowance for doubtful accounts in aggregate amount of $ 2,133,000 for the debt the Ukrainian government owes to us. We did not have any revenues from this project in 2004 and 2005.

National Documentation—Moldova

In August 1995, we entered into an agreement with Intercomsoft, which was subsequently amended on May 5, 1998 and July 22, 1998, in connection with a national documentation project in Moldova. The agreement had a term of ten years. Pursuant to the agreement, we supplied Intercomsoft with equipment and raw materials necessary for the production of passports, drivers' licenses, vehicle registrations, identification cards and other documents, as required from time to time under an agreement between Intercomsoft and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Moldova (“MIAM”). Pursuant to the agreement, Intercomsoft was required to pay us for the equipment and raw materials that we supplied to Intercomsoft. In addition, we were entitled to 25% of Intercomsoft's gross profits from the sale of ID documentation to the MIAM. In addition, Trimol Group Inc., a publicly traded company in the United States and the parent company of Intercomsoft, issued 125,000 shares of Trimol Group, Inc. to us as partial consideration for the equipment supplied and the other undertakings. During the first and the second quarter of 2004 we sold all of our shares in Trimol Group, Inc. for the total amount of $2,500. In 2003 and 2004, we generated revenues of $1,184,000 and $1,610,000, respectively, pursuant to this agreement. During 2005, we generated $559,000 in revenues pursuant to this agreement.

On March 24, 2005, we terminated our agreement with Intercomsoft. Under the terms of the termination agreement, we will supply equipment, consumables and software directly to the Moldovan government which we expect will be paid for by the Moldovan government. We have not entered a contract with the Moldovan government. We are being paid by the Moldavian per purchase order. During 2005, we generated $1,868,000 in revenues from the Moldovan government. We do not expect any significant changes in our revenues as a result of the termination of such agreement. In the absence of a long-term agreement, there can be no assurances that the Moldovan government will purchase products from us to the same extent or for the same period of time as Intercomsoft would have under its agreement with us.

In December 1997, we entered into an agreement with the Stationary Office Limited, an English company (“TSO”), which was awarded a ten-year agreement in June 1997 to supply passports to the United Kingdom Passport Agency. Pursuant to the agreement, we, as subcontractor, will supply TSO with equipment and training for the production of passports at TSO's central facility in Manchester, England and at six regional offices of the United Kingdom Passport Agency. In addition, TSO has the option to purchase raw materials from us at prices specified in the agreement. The TSO agreement may be terminated for cause and upon termination of TSO's agreement with the Passport Agency. In 2003 and 2004, we generated revenues of $140,000 and $129,000, respectively, pursuant to this agreement. During 2005, we generated revenues of $14,000 pursuant to this agreement.

30

United States Government Printing Office

On May 5, 2005, the U.S. Government Printing Office (“GPO”) issued a Notice of Termination for Convenience involving our participation in the three-phase testing of technology for a new electronic passport project. While an earlier termination notice was withdrawn after discussions with the GPO, our attempts to persuade the GPO to withdraw the current termination notice have been unsuccessful.  The notice terminates our contract awards for the Electronic Passport Program. While the termination notice does not specify the reason for its issuance, we understand from our discussions with the GPO that it is based on unresolved security concerns and not related to our technological solution or our cost proposal.

Biometric Visasystem to European Government

In January 2005, we announced that we have signed an agreement with the government of an European country to deploy a biometric visa issuance system in its embassies throughout the world. The project’s first stage has an estimated value of approximately $500,000.

The system will be built on our proprietary platform technology, and will be tailored to meet the customer’s specific requirements. To combat counterfeiting and fraud, the integrated system will capture the fingerprints of each visa applicant and store the images on a chip integrated in each visa, enabling automatic and positive identification of the person each time the visa is used. The system features an advanced and decentralized design that makes it fast and cost-effective to install while increasing its flexibility. The end-to-end solution meets all ICAO standards for visas and passports.

Total revenues that was recognized by December 31, 2005 were $360,000 pursuant to this agreement.

National ID card deal with African Governmental Agency

In December 2004, we announced that we have entered into an agreement with an African governmental agency to provide an end-to-end “Magna” national identification system valued at $2.5 million during the term of the agreement, which is five years. The solution will be deployed in stages that began in the fourth quarter of 2004 and will continue through the end of the fourth quarter of 2005.  Revenues will be recognized during the forth quarter 2004 through the year 2005.

The comprehensive hardware and software-based solution will consist of a national population ID registry together with a document issuance system. The identification card itself will utilize visible and invisible security features, including the encoded fingerprints of the cardholder.

Customer Service

We believe that customer support plays a significant role in our sales and marketing efforts and in our ability to maintain customer satisfaction, which is critical to our efforts to build our reputation and permit us to grow in both new and existing markets. In addition, we believe that the customer interaction and feedback involved in our ongoing support functions provide us with information on customer needs that contributes to our product development efforts. We generally provide maintenance services under our agreements pursuant to terms that are according to each particular agreement. We provide service either through customer training, local third-party service organizations, our subsidiaries, or our personnel, including appropriate personnel sent from our headquarters in Israel. We generally provide our customers with a warranty for our products varying in length from twelve to 36 months. Costs incurred annually by SuperCom for product warranties have to date been insignificant; however, there can be no assurance that these costs will not increase significantly in the future.

32

Manufacturing and Availability of Raw Materials

Our manufacturing operations consist primarily of materials planning and procurement, quality control of components, kit assembly and integration, final assembly, and testing of fully-configured systems. A significant portion of our manufacturing operations consists of the integration and testing of off-the-shelf components. All of our products and systems, whether or not manufactured by us, undergo several levels of testing, including configuration to customer orders and testing with current release software, prior to delivery.

Certain components, such as printers and digital cameras, are purchased and then integrated by us into a data capture workstation. We perform a significant amount of primary assembly of our printers. We contract with manufacturers to produce less technologically sensitive and complex features of our printers to our specifications.

In addition, we purchase raw materials such as Teslin®, silicon, toners and certain security features, used by our customers in the production of ID documents from third parties. While third parties process many of the materials according to our specifications, we carry out the finishing and packaging of the consumable materials.

We do not have minimum supply commitments from our vendors and generally purchase components on a purchase order basis. Although we generally use standard raw materials and components for our systems, some of the key raw materials or components are available only from a single source or from limited sources. For example, Teslin®, which is a primary raw material used in our smart card products is only available from a single source. Similarly, many of our various chips and toners are only available from limited sources. Even where multiple sources are available, we typically obtain components and raw materials from only one vendor to ensure high quality, prompt delivery and low cost. If one of our suppliers were unable to meet our supply demands and we could not quickly replace the source of supply, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition, for reasons including a delay of receipt of revenues and damage to our business reputation. We have, however, identified alternate sources of supply for most of our components and raw materials. We believe that our open systems architecture facilitates the substitution of components when this becomes necessary or desirable.

Competition

The market for our products and services is extremely competitive. We asses our competitive position from our experience and market intelligence and reviewing third party competitive research materials. Our management expects this competition to intensify as the markets in which our products and services compete continue to develop. We face competition from technologically sophisticated companies, many of which have substantially greater technical, financial, and marketing resources. In some cases, we compete with entities that have pre-existing relationships with potential customers. As the national documentation production market expands, we expect additional competitors to enter the market. However, as of the date of this annual report, we believe that we have been able to compete because our products combine technologies and features that provide customers with a complete and comprehensive solution. There can be no assurance, however, that other companies will not offer similar products in the future or develop products and services that are superior to our products and services, that achieve greater customer acceptance or that have significantly improved functionality as compared to our existing and future smart card products and services. Increased competition may result in our experiencing reduced margins, loss of sales or decreased market shares.

We experience intense competitive pricing pressures, promotional programs and customers who negotiate price reductions in exchange for longer-term purchase commitments, which might cause the average selling prices for our products to decline. The pricing of products depends on the specific features and functions of the products, purchase volumes and the level of sales and service support required. These same competitive pressures may require us to write down the carrying value of any inventory on hand, which would adversely affect our operating results and adversely affect our earnings per share.

In the passport production and national identification card markets, we compete with local governments and government-owned or private sector security printing companies. These companies have either adapted new printing technologies to the passport production market or use the same technologies as we do. These companies include Canadian Bank Notes; Thomas De la Rue, a publicly held English company; Giesecke & Devrient GmbH, a German company; 3M Inc., a publicly-held U.S. company; Setec Oy, a Finnish company that produces passports using laser engraving technology; Toppan, a Japanese company that manufactures laser printers; and American Banknote Corporation. We are able to compete to date on the basis of, among other things, our ability to produce national identification cards of any size that feature high-speed laser printing on Teslin ® and polyester, which provides enhanced security and significant durability. There can be no assurance, however, that other companies will not offer similar products in the future.

33

We also compete with system integrators such as EDS, Unisys, Siemens, TRW, Lockheed-Martin and IBM, which act as prime integrators in connection with government agreements. These system integrators, however, sometimes act as our partners when we participate in consortiums led by, or including, one or more of these system integrators.

In projects where customers require biometric data collection technology, we compete with automatic fingerprint identification system, or AFIS providers such as Lockheed-Martin, Printrak International (Motorola), TRW, Cogent Technology, Sagem Morpho of France and NEC of Japan. AFIS suppliers tend to position themselves as prime integrators on turnkey projects. We have developed integration capabilities with AFIS systems and can print encrypted AFIS data onto our national identification cards and passports.

In the emerging market for contactless smart cards for use in national documentation systems, we compete with companies such as Schlumberger, Gempluss and Orga Cards, which supply smart cards for commercial applications using polyvinylchloride, or PVC, and other material platforms; Giesecke & Devrient Oberthur, which supplies smart cards; ODS Landis & Gyr and Maurer, a German company, which produces laser engraved polycarbonate cards; Nova Card and Amatech, German companies, and Austrian Cards, an Austrian company, which also sell antenna winding technology, PET cards and sell contactless production equipment; Muhlbauer and Meltzer, German companies which are competitors in manufacturing contactless equipment; and Bull and De La Rue, which is engaged in the business of printing money, passport and other secured documents.

Our commercial applications for EduGate, DynaGate, SmartDSMS and Vend-EZ compete in an undeveloped market that is primarily served by niche competitors, which change frequently.

Intellectual Property

Our ability to compete is dependent on our ability to develop and maintain the proprietary aspects of our technology. We rely on a combination of trademark, copyright, trade secret and other intellectual property laws, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements, licensing and other contractual arrangements and have also applied for patent protection to protect our proprietary technology and intellectual property. These legal protections afford only limited protection for our proprietary technology and intellectual property. If we enter into U.S. government contracts, the U.S. government may be in a position to obtain greater rights with respect to our intellectual property than we would grant to other entities.

In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of Israel or the United States. Our means of protecting our intellectual property rights in Israel, the United States or any other country in which we operate may not be adequate to fully protect our intellectual property rights. For instance, the intellectual property rights of our Asian subsidiary, SuperCom Asia Pacific Ltd. may not be fully protected by the laws of Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China.

Patents

As of the date of this annual report, we had 5 patent cases. One registered in Israel, 2 pending in Israel, 3 pending in USA, one registered in Honk Kong and one pending in other jurisdictions. Generally, these patents and patent applications relate to our lamination, printing access control and electronic passport technologies

We intend to file additional patent applications when and if appropriate. There is no guarantee that patents will arise from our applications or, if patents do arise, that we will be afforded proprietary protection should claims arise.

In addition, we recognize that our existing patents provide us only limited protection. Moreover, not all countries provide legal protection of proprietary technology to the same extent. There can be no assurance that the measures taken by us to protect our proprietary technologies are or will be sufficient to prevent misappropriation of our technologies or portions thereof by unauthorized third parties or independent development by others of similar technologies or products. In addition, regardless of whether our products infringe on proprietary rights of third parties, infringement or invalidity claims may be asserted or prosecuted against us and we could incur significant expenses in defending them. Our costs could also increase if we have to pay license fees as a result of these claims.

Licenses

We license technology and software, such as operating systems and database software from third parties for incorporation into our smart card systems and products and we expect to continue to enter into these types of agreements for future products. Our licenses are either perpetual or for specific terms.

34

Government Regulation

Some of our contracts relate to projects that have elements that are classified for national security reasons. Although most of our contracts are not themselves classified, persons with high security clearances are often required to perform portions of the contracts. We believe that our employment of personnel with high security clearances is helpful in obtaining such contracts. Doing business with governments is complex and requires the ability to comply with intricate regulations and satisfy periodic audits.

Our smart card readers must comply in the United States with the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission, or the FCC, which may require certification, verification or registration of the equipment with the FCC. Certification and verification of new equipment requires testing to ensure the equipment's compliance with the FCC's rules. In addition, the equipment must be labeled according to the FCC's rules to show compliance with these rules. Electronic equipment permitted or authorized to be used by the FCC through our certification or verification procedures must not cause harmful interference to licensed FCC users, and it is subject to radio frequency interference from licensed FCC users. To date, our smart card readers have complied with the regulations of the FCC; however, there can be no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future.

We are subject to certain labor statutes and to certain provisions of collective bargaining agreements between the Histadrut, the General Federation of Labor in Israel, and the Coordinating Bureau of Economic Organizations, including the Industrialists’ Association, with respect to our Israeli employees. In addition, our Israeli employees are also subject to minimum mandatory military service requirements. Please refer to the discussion of “Employees” appearing under Section D of Item 6 for more information.

Generally, we are subject to the laws, regulations and standards of the countries in which we operate and/or sell our products, which vary substantially from country to country. The difficulty of complying with these laws regulations and standards may be more or less difficult than complying with applicable U.S. or Israeli regulations, and the requirements may differ.

Legal Proceedings

We are party to legal proceedings in the normal course of our business. Other than as described below, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which our property is subject. Although the outcome of claims and lawsuits against us can not be accurately predicted, we do not believe that any of the claims and lawsuits described in this paragraph, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for any quarterly or annual period.

In April 2004, we were informed by the International Commercial Arbitration Court at the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (“Arbitration Court”) that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a statement of claim to declare the Contract No. 10/82, dated April 9, 2002 between SuperCom and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine as void due to defaults in the tender proceedings under which the Ukraine Contract had been awarded to SuperCom. On July 22, 2004 we were informed by the law firm representing us in the arbitration proceedings that on July 19, 2004, the Arbitration Court issued a negative award declaring the Ukraine Contract as void. We strongly believe that the award is wrong due to many defaults that occurred in the arbitration proceedings. On April 27, 2005 we challenged the validity of the award in the High Commercial Court of Ukraine. In May 2005 we were informed by the Arbitration Court that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a new statement of claim for restitution of $1,047,740, paid to us by the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry. On September 27, 2005, we received a negative award by the Arbitration Court. On December 12, 2005 we were informed that the Supreme Court of Ukraine had dismissed our appeal regarding the July 2004 decision. Based on the opinion of our legal advisors, we strongly believe that such award is wrong, that the claim has no merit and that there have been serious violations of the arbitration proceedings, therefore no provision was set-up in the financial statements in respect to the claim for restitution of $1,047,740. However, due to the developments described above, we wrote off inventory in an amount of approximately $287,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005 and took possession of the remaining inventory that was previously delivered to the customer. In 2003, we increased the allowance for doubtful accounts in aggregate amount of $ 2,133,000 for the debt the Ukrainian government owes to us. We did not have any revenues from this project in 2004 and 2005.

On October30, 2003 , SuperCom Slovakia, a subsidiary (66%) of SuperCom Ltd., received an award by the International Arbitral Centre of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber ("IAC"), in the case against the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic which refers to the agreement on delivery of Technology, Cooperation and Services signed on March 17, 1998. Upon the Arbitral Award, the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic was ordered to pay SuperCom Slovakia the amount of SKK 80,000,000 (approximately $2,500,000 million as of December 31, 2005) plus interest accruing from March, 1999. In addition, the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic was ordered to pay the costs of arbitration in the amount of EUR 42,716 (approximately $51,000 as of December 31, 2005) and SuperCom Slovakia's legal fees in the amount of EUR 63,611 (approximately $75,000 as of December 31, 2005). We have begun the enforcement procedure of the arbitral award. The Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic filed a claim with the Commercial Court in Vienna, Austria on February 10, 2004, whereby it challenged and requested to set aside the arbitral award. During September 2005 the commercial court of Vienna dismissed the claim of the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic. On October 21, 2005 the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic filed an appeal.

On July 14, 2003, Mr. Yaacov Pedhatzur, an Israeli citizen filed a lawsuit against us, with the Magistrate Court in Tel Aviv, Israel. The plaintiff claims that we owe him certain commission in respect of transactions between SuperCom and certain third parties On September 29, 2005 we reached a settlement agreement with Mr. Yaacov Pedhatzur pursuant to which we will pay Mr. Pedhatzur the NIS equivalent of $ 129,000. The settlement agreement has been validated by the Magistrate Court. This amount was recorded in the statement of operations as litigation settlement expenses.

On December 16, 1999, Secu-Systems Ltd. ("Secu-systems" or the "Plaintiff") filed a lawsuit with the District Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa jointly and severally against us and InkSure Ltd. (a former subsidiary, which became a subsidiary of InkSure Technologies, Inc., ("InkSure")) seeking a permanent injunction and damages. The Plaintiff asserted in its suit that the printing method applied to certain products that have been developed by InkSure constitutes inter alia: (a) a breach of a confidentiality agreement between the Plaintiff and us; (b) unjust enrichment of us and InkSure; (c) a breach of fiduciary duties owed to the Plaintiff by us and InkSure, and (d) a tort of misappropriation of trade secrets and damage to the Plaintiff's property. Based on such allegations, Secu-Systems asked the court to order us and InkSure to: (i) cease any activity which involves the Plaintiff's confidential information; (ii) furnish the Plaintiff with a certified report detailing all profits derived by us and InkSure from such activity; (iii) pay the Plaintiff an amount equal to all such profits, and (iv) pay the Plaintiff additional damages in the amount of NIS 100,000 (approximately $22,000 as of December 31, 2005). Alternatively, the Plaintiff asked the court to declare that the above-mentioned products are jointly owned, in equal shares, by the Plaintiff and InkSure and that the Plaintiff is entitled to 50% of all profits derived therefrom

On March 15, 2006, the Court gave its ruling as follows:

1. The claim for a breach of contract was denied.

2. The claim for misappropriation of trade secret was accepted, but the court states explicitly that there is no room for ordering the defendant to restitute profits of breach of contract and that there is also no room for granting a remedy which orders the restitution of profits due to the causes of actions of misappropriation of trade secret or unjust enrichment.

3. Ordered InkSure and us to cease all activity which involves the use of the confidential knowledge and/or the confidential information.

4. To provide to the Plaintiff, within 60 days, a report certified by an accountant that sets forth in full the income and/or benefit that has been received by InkSure and us as a result of the infringing activity until the date of the judgment.

5. To pay (jointly and severally) to the Plaintiff a compensation in the sum of NIS 100,000 (bearing interest and linked to the consumer price index (CPI) from the date of the judgment), legal expenses (bearing interest and linked to the CPI from the dates they were incurred until their actual payment) as well as attorney's fees in the sum of NIS 30,000 plus VAT (bearing interest and linked to the CPI from the date of the judgment).

Secu-Systems has recently filed an appeal on the ruling above. At this point, we cannot estimate the odds of success of the appeal. We have the right to file a counter appeal until July 15, 2006.

On May 1, 2006, Evilia Investments Ltd. ("Evilia") filed with the Magistrate's Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa a monetary lawsuit against InkSure and against us, jointly and severally, for payment of NIS 2,366,868 (as of June 15, 2006, approximately $530,000) plus interest, due as rent payments and related management fees for a certain real estate property in Rehovot, leased to InkSure under a lease agreement entered into between Evilia and InkSure on October 10, 2000, as amended on May 25, 2001 (the "Agreement"), to which SuperCom is a guarantor.

A motion for leave to defend the lawsuit has been filed with the Court by both InkSure and us on June 15, 2006.

Based upon the facts provided by InkSure, the building was not completed and was not ready for use, and hence, InkSure submitted to Evilia a notice of termination of the Agreement

Assuming that the facts presented by InkSure in its motion for leave to defend the lawsuit are adopted as true by the Magistrate's Court, we tend to believe that the chances the claim against InkSure and hence (since the guarantee signed by us will no longer be valid if the termination of the Agreement by InkSure is found to be justified by the court), also against us, will be dismissed are reasonably good

36

In addition, based on our legal consultant advisor, we believe that our liability under the Agreement is limited as a guarantor to InkSure's obligation, if and to the extent it is not paid by InkSure.

Accordingly, even if the court issues a final judgment according to which InkSure is required to pay the amount claimed or any part thereof, our obligation to pay any amount to Evilia is subject to no payment of the amounts due from InkSure, and limited only to such amounts.

Since Inksure appears to be financially capable of paying any amounts due on the claim, if so determined by the court, we tend to believe that our exposure is limited.

Employees

As of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had 57 and 67 full-time employees, respectively. Please refer to the section captioned “Employees” appearing under Section D, Item 6 for more information about our employees.

Our ability to succeed depends, among other things, upon our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified managerial, technical, accounting, sales and marketing personnel.

Seasonality

Our financial and operating results have fluctuated in the past and our financial and operating results could fluctuate in the future. It is our experience that, as a general matter, a majority of our sales are made during the latter half of the calendar year consistent with the budgetary, approval and order processes of our governmental customers. Additionally, the period between our initial contact with a potential customer and the purchase of our products and services is often long and subject to delays associated with the budgeting, approval and competitive evaluation processes that frequently accompany significant capital expenditures, particularly by governmental agencies. The typical sales cycle for our government customers has to date ranged from three to 24 months and the typical sales cycle for our commercial customers has ranged from one to six months. A lengthy sales cycle may have an impact on the timing of our revenue, which may cause our quarterly operating results to fall below investor expectations. We believe that a customer's decision to purchase our products and services is discretionary, involves a significant commitment of resources, and is influenced by customer budgetary cycles. To successfully sell our products and services, we generally must educate our potential customers regarding their use and benefits, which can require significant time and resources. This significant expenditure of time and resources may not result in actual sales of our products and services.

The lead-time for ordering parts and materials and building many of our products can be many months. As a result, we must order parts and materials and build our products based on forecasted demand. If demand for our products lags significantly behind our forecasts, we may produce more products than we can sell, which can result in cash flow problems and write-offs or write-downs of obsolete inventory.

C.    Organizational Structure

The diagram below shows SuperCom Ltd.'s holdings in its subsidiaries and affiliates as of December 31, 2005:

As part of our reorganization plan during 2001 and 2002, we have made a strategic decision to focus on our core business and shut down all operations that are not a part thereof. As a result, we liquidated Genodus Inc. (and its subsidiary) and Kromotech Inc. and its subsidiary, both of which developed technology used in our business, which we now own, and sold all of our equity in InkSure Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

ITEM 5.    Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.

A.    Operating results

The following section should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and which are included in Item 18. Some of the statements contained in this section constitute “forward-looking statements.” These statements relate to future events or to our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements express or implied by such forward-looking statements. See “Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.”

Overview

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel in 1988. From our incorporation until 1999, we were a development-stage company primarily engaged in research and development, establishing relationships with suppliers and potential customers and recruiting personnel with a focus on the governmental market. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002, we completed our reorganization plan, which began in 2001. According to such plan, we decided to add marketing and sales efforts on the commercial market with a new line of products, including SmartGate 2400, EduGate and DynaGate, while still maintaining our business in the governmental market. In 2005, our revenue from the government market totaled approximately $7,519,000 compared to $943,000 from the commercial market. In 2004, our revenue from the government market totaled approximately $6,330,000 compared to $1,014,000 from the commercial market. In 2003, our revenue from the government market was approximately $5,621,000 compared to $1,623,000 from the commercial market. Although we believe that the government is critical to our success in the short-term, we believe that both the government and commercial markets will be critical to our long-term future success.

During fiscal 2002, we sold our equity interest in our subsidiary, InkSure Technologies, Inc. (“InkSure”), for which we received aggregate proceeds of approximately $6,600,000 from the sale of shares.

39

Revenues

The primary products that we sell are smart card systems, smart card production machines and raw materials used for the production of smart cards and secure ID cards. We typicallyderive the majority of our revenues during the first two years of an agreement with a customer. This revenue is generated by the delivery of the data collection and document production systems. Following delivery of such systems, the majority of revenues generated from the agreement results from ongoing deliveries of raw materials for use with the installed systems. We also typically generate additional revenues from maintenance fees and support, training and installation.

Our systems are tailored to meet the specific needs of our customers. In order to satisfy these needs, the terms of each agreement, including the duration of the agreement and prices for our products and services differ from agreement to agreement.

Additional revenue is generated through licensing technology, mostly with commercial customers.

Operating Expense

Our costs associated with a particular project may vary significantly depending on the specific requirements of the customer and the terms of the agreement, as well as on the extent of the technology licensing. As a result, our gross profits from each project may vary significantly.

Our research and development expenses consist of salaries, raw material and equipment costs, as well as financing research and development operations in subsidiaries.

Net Income

Our operating results are significantly affected by, among other things, the timing of contract awards and performance of agreements. As a result, our revenues and income may fluctuate substantially from quarter to quarter, and comparisons over longer periods of time may be more meaningful. The nature of our expenses (including cost of revenues) are mainly fixed or semi-fixed and any fluctuation in revenues will generate a significant variation in gross profit and net income.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for bad debts, and valuation of inventories and impairment of long-lived assets.

We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Under different assumptions or conditions, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP"). Our significant accounting principles are presented within Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. While all the accounting policies impact the financial statements, certain policies may be viewed to be critical. These policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes that the significant accounting policies which affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported results include the following:

A.Revenue recognition

B.Allowance for doubtful accounts

C.Inventory valuation

D.Impairment of long-lived assets

E.Contingencies

F.Stock Based Compensation

40

Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We generate revenues primarily from governmental projects sales and commercial products sales. Some of our transactions include maintenance services, installation and integration consulting services.

Revenues are recognized when delivery has occurred and, where applicable, after installation has been completed, there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured and no further obligations exist. In cases where delivery has occurred but the required installation has not been performed, the Company does not recognize the revenues until the installation is completed. The Company does not grant a right of return. Following are the main factors of our revenue recognition policies:

· We recognize revenue from products generally upon shipment, unless contract terms call for a later date, net of an allowance for estimated returns, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, collection is probable, the fee is fixed or determinable, vendor-specific objective evidence exists to allocate the total fee to elements of the arrangement and assuming only inconsequential or perfunctory performance obligations remain. Revenue from some data security hardware products contains embedded software. However, the embedded software is considered incidental to the hardware product sale. We also act as a reseller of third-party hardware and software applications. Generally, we recognize such revenue upon shipment of the hardware or software application, unless contract terms call for a later date, provided that all other conditions above have been met. As mentioned above we derive our revenues mainly from sale of hardware products that include embedded software that is considered to be incidental.

However, in limited circumstances, we provide software upgrades in respect of the embedded software of hardware products sold in the past. Such revenues are recognized when all criteria outlined in Statement of Position No. 97-2 “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP No. 97-2) (as amended) are met: when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred (i.e. the services have been provided), no significant obligationsunder the agreement remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable.

· Service revenue includes payments under support and upgrade contracts and consulting fees. We recognize support and upgrade revenue ratably over the term of the contract, which typically is twelve months. Consulting revenue primarily relates to installation, integration and training services performed on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis under separate service arrangements. Fees from consulting are recognized as services are performed.

· Revenues from arrangements that involve the delivery of multiple deliverables such as products, services or rights to use asset, are recognized in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”. For such arrangements, each element of the contract is accounted as a separate unit if the delivered items has value to the customer on a standalone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered items.

· We are entitled to royalties upon sales of smartcard systems. Such royalties are recognized when the sales are reported to the Company. (mainly on a monthly basis)

· Revenues from long-term contracts are recognized pursuant to the percentage of completion method. We measure the percentage of completion based on output criteria, such as the number of units delivered or based on contract milestones as applicable to each contract. Provisions for estimated losses on incomplete contracts are made during the period in which such losses are first identified, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract. Cost estimates on percentage-of-completion contracts are reviewed periodically with adjustments recorded in the period in which the revisions are made. The complexity of the estimation process and factors relating to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the application of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting affect the amounts of revenue and related expenses reported in our consolidated financial statements. A number of internal and external factors can affect our estimates, including labor rates, availability of qualified personnel and project requirement and/or scope changes. Billings on uncompleted contracts may be less than or greater than the revenues recognized and are recorded as either unbilled receivable (an asset) or deferred revenue (a liability) in the consolidated financial statements.

· The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to specific debts that the Company has determined to be doubtful of collection.

Our revenue results are difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenue or delay in recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses.

41

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition and we require collateral as deemed necessary. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to those accounts that we have determined to be doubtful of collection. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $3,347,000 and $3,397,000 at December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Inventories Valuation

At each balance sheet date, we evaluate our inventory balance for excess quantities and technical obsolescence. This evaluation includes analyses of sales levels by product line and projection of future demand. In addition, we write off inventories that we considered obsolete. Remaining inventory balances are adjusted to the lower of the cost or market value. If future demand or market conditions are less favorable than our projections, additional inventory write-downs may be required and would be reflected in cost of sales in the period the revision is made.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the carrying amount of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less selling costs.

The determination of the value of such long-lived and intangible assets requires management to make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates or the related assumptions change in the future, we could be required to record impairment charges. Any material change in our valuation of assets in the future and any consequent adjustment for impairment could have a material adverse impact on our future reported financial results.

Contingencies

From time to time, we are the defendant or plaintiff in various legal actions, which arise in the normal course of business. We are required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves required for these contingencies, if any, which would be charged to earnings, is made after careful and considered analysis of each individual action together with our legal advisors. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in circumstances, such as a change in settlement strategy. A change in the required reserves would affect our earnings in the period the change is made. Other than as described under the heading “Legal Proceedings” under Item 4, B, there are no material pending legal proceedings in which we are a party or of which our property is subject.

Stock-Based Compensation

Until December 31, 2005 we applied the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations including Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation,” an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, issued in March 2000, to account for our employee stock options. Under this method, compensation expense is recognized only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price on the date of grant. SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123)” and FASB Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure,” an amendment to FASB Statement No. 123, established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As permitted by existing accounting standards, through December 31, 2005, we elected to continue to apply the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting described above, and have adopted only the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, as amended. However, as more fully described in note 2(v) to the accompanying financial statement. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), a revision of SFAS 123. Among other items, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of APB 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires companies to recognize in their financial statements, the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the fair value of those awards at the grant date. The effective date of SFAS 123R is the first reporting fiscal year period beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the first quarter 2006 for the Company.

The Company expects that SFAS 123R, will be applied using the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the statement. Under this transition method, upon the adoption of SFAS 123R, the new standard will be implemented as from the first quarter of 2006, with no restatement of prior periods.

Considering this transition method, the Company expects that the effect of applying this statement on the Company’s results of operations in 2006 as it relates to existing option plans, would not be materially different from the FAS 123 pro forma effect previously reported.

We accounted for non-employee stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that Are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.”

Warranties

Based on past experience, the Company does not provide for warranty costs when revenue is recognized.

Operating Results

Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004

Revenues

Our revenues in 2005 were $8,462,000 compared to $7,344,000 in 2004, an increase of 15%. The increase is primarily due to an increase in revenues from existing governmental customers, primarily in Europe and Africa. We anticipate that our mix of revenues from the government and commercial markets for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 will be consistent with our mix of revenues in 2005. Although we believe that the government market is critical to our success in the short-term, we believe that both the government and commercial markets will be critical to our long-term future success.

Gross Profit

Our gross profits in 2005 were $3,882,000 compared to gross profits of $3,614,000 in 2004, an increase of 7.4%. The gross profit margin for the year 2005 decreased by 3.3% as compared to 49% in 2004. The decrease in our 2005 gross profit margin was primarily due to Inventory write-off in the amount of $287,000 related to the Ukraine project, and due to different mix of products, which carry lower margins.

Expenses

Our operating expenses in 2005 were $7,778,000 compared to $5,245,000 in 2004, an increase of 48%. The increase in operating expenses was due to the increase in selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, restructuring expenses of $496,000 relating to cost-cutting measures that we implemented during the year 2005 and settlement expenses of $129,000.

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and commission earned by sales and marketing personnel, trade show and promotional expenses, allocated rent and supplies and travel and entertainment costs. Our selling and marketing expenses in 2005 were $3,003,000 compared to $2,445,000 in 2004, an increase of 23%. The increase in the sales and marketing expenses was due to the increase in labor expenses and sales promotion expenses related to the increase in revenues.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, allocated rent and supplies, and related costs for our executive, finance, legal, human resource, information technology and administrative personnel, and professional service fees, including legal counsel insurance and audit fees. Our general and administrative expenses in 2005 were $2,968,000 compared to $1,955,000 in 2004, an increase of 52%. The increase in the general and administrative expenses was primarily due to expenses related to the registration of our ordinary shares under the Exchange Act, the commencement of trading of our shares in the United States on the OTC Bulletin Board, and increases in our legal expenses related to our ID solutions for governmental markets activity.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, allocated rent expense, supplies and equipment for software developers and architects, hardware engineers and program managers, as well as legal fees associated with our intellectual property. Our research and development expenses in 2005 were $1,182,000 compared to $845,000 in 2004, an increase of 40%. The increase in the research and development expenses was primarily due to research and development expenses associated with our ID solutions for governmental markets and to new products development including SmartSMDS, E-Passport. We expect, that our research and development expenses will increase in 2006 due to research and development expenses associated with our SmartSMDS, E-Passport and new technology for active tracking solutions.

Restructuring expenses contains certain financial measures related to expenses totaling $496,000 that are associated with cost-cutting measures implemented by us during year 2005.

Additionally, in 2005, we paid settlement expenses totaling $129,000 relating to a litigation settlement that we entered into with Mr. Yaacov Pedhatzur in connection with the Yaacov Pedhatzur litigation.

Financial Interest Expense, net

Financial interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, and 2004, was $53,000 and $166,000, respectively. Interest expense during 2005 and 2004 consisted of interest accrued from bank loans net of bank deposit.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses, net for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, and 2004, was $ 30,000 and $27,000, respectively.

Net Loss

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss in 2005 was $3,951,000 compared to a net loss of $1,872,000 in 2004, an increase of 111%.

45

Year Ended December 31, 2004 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2003

Revenues

Our revenues in 2004 were $7,344,000 compared to $7,244,000 in 2003, an increase of 2%. Our revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 included $1,970,000 in revenues attributable to our agreement with the Ukraine Ministry of Internal Affairs for a national passport and ID smart card project (the “Ukraine ID Project”). Due to the arbitration proceeding with the Ukraine Chamber of Commerce relating to the Ukraine ID Project we did not recognize any revenues from this project for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. During 2004, we classified the cost of goods that were sold to the Ukraine Ministry of Internal Affairs from trade receivables to inventory. As a result of negative developments in the arbitration relating to the Ukraine ID Project we wrote off inventory during the fourth quarter of 2005 in the amount of approximately $287,000. Additionally, during the year 2003, we increased the allowance for doubtful accounts in an aggregate amount of $2,133,000 for the debt the Ukrainian government owes to us in connection with the Ukraine ID Project. Our revenues in the fourth quarter of 2003 included $536,000 of revenue related to the sale of a production line to a customer in the United States, which is to be paid to us over a period of four years. Our revenues in the fourth quarter of 2004 included $1,208,000 of revenue related to the sale of a production line to a customer in Europe. Our revenues from the government market for 2004 and 2003 totaled $6,330,000 and $5,621,000, respectively. In comparison our revenues from the commercial market for 2004 and 2003 totaled $1,014,000 and $1,623,000, respectively.

Gross Profit

Our gross profits in 2004 were $3,614,000 compared to gross profits of $4,142,000 in 2003, a decrease of 12.7%. The gross profit margin for the year 2004 decreased by 8% as compared to a 57% in 2003. The decrease in our 2004 gross profit was primarily due to different mix of product, which carry lower margins. We increased the volume of sales of our commercial applications, which carry lower margins as compared to sales of our ID solutions and contactless smart cards for governmental markets.

Expenses

Our operating expenses in 2004 were $5,245,000 compared to $5,773,000 in 2003, a decrease of 9%. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the reduction in sales and marketing expenses.

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and commission earned by sales and marketing personnel, trade show and promotional expenses, allocated rent and supplies and travel and entertainment costs. Our selling and marketing expenses in 2004 were $2,445,000 compared to $3,026,000 in 2003, a decrease of 19%. The decrease in the sales and marketing expenses was due to a reduction in sales and marketing expenses related to our Ukraine ID Project.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, allocated rent and supplies, and related costs for our executive, finance, legal, human resource, information technology and administrative personnel, and professional service fees, including legal counsel insurance and audit fees. Our general and administrative expenses in 2004 were $1,955,000 compared to $1,829,000 in 2003, an increase of 7%. The increase in the general and administrative expenses was primarily due to expenses related to the registration of our ordinary shares under the Exchange Act, and the commencement of trading of our shares in the United States on the OTC Bulletin Board.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, allocated rent expense, supplies and equipment for software developers and architects, hardware engineers and program managers, as well as legal fees associated with our intellectual property. Our research and development expenses in 2004 were $845,000 compared to $918,000 in 2003, a decrease of 8%.

Financial Interest Expense, net

Financial interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, and 2004, was $135,000 and $166,000, respectively. Interest expense during 2004 and 2003 consisted of interest accrued from bank loans net of bank deposit.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses, net for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, and 2004, was $ 83,000 and $27,000, respectively. Other expenses primarily consisted of a decline in market value of held-to-maturity securities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, and 2004, $ 52,000 and $ 7,000, respectively.

46

Net Loss

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss in 2004 was $1,872,000 compared to a net loss of $1,995,000 in 2003, a decrease of 6%.

Impact of Inflation and Currency Fluctuations

Because the majority of our revenue is paid in or linked to the dollar, we believe that inflation and fluctuation in the NIS/dollar exchange rate has no material effect on our results of operations. However, a portion of the cost of our Israeli operations, mainly personnel, is incurred in NIS. Because some of our costs are in NIS, inflation in Israel/dollar exchange rate fluctuations do have some impact on expenses and, as a result, on net income. Our NIS costs, as expressed in dollars, are influenced by the extent to which any increase in the rate of inflation in Israel is not offset, or is offset on a delayed basis, by a devaluation of the NIS in relation to the dollar.

In 2005, the rate of devaluation of the NIS against the U.S. dollar was 6.8% and the rate of inflation was 2.4%. It is unclear what the devaluation/evaluation rate will be in the future, and we may be materially adversely affected if inflation in Israel exceeds the devaluation of the NIS against the U.S. dollar, or if the timing of the devaluation lags behind increases in inflation in Israel.

We do not engage in any hedging or other transactions intended to manage risks relating to foreign currency exchange rate or interest rate fluctuations. At December 31, 2005, we did not own any market risk sensitive instruments except for our revolving line of credit. However, we may in the future undertake hedging or other similar transactions or invest in market risk sensitive instruments if management determines that it is necessary or advisable to offset these risks.

Seasonality

Our quarterly operations are subject to fluctuations due to several factors, including the factors discused under the section captioned “Risk Factors—The time from our initial contact with a customer to a sale is long and subject to delays which could result in the postponement of our receipt of revenues from one accounting period to the next, increasing the variability of our results of operations and causing significant fluctuations in our revenue from quarter to quarter.” and the section captioned “Seasonality” appearing under Item 4, B. It is our experience that, as a general matter, a majority of our sales are made during the latter half of the calendar year consistent with the budgetary, approval and order processes of our governmental customers. Additionally, the period between our initial contact with a potential customer and the purchase of our products and services is often long and subject to delays associated with the budgeting, approval and competitive evaluation processes that frequently accompany significant capital expenditures, particularly for government organizations. A lengthy sales cycle may have an impact on the timing of our revenue, which may cause our quarterly operating results to fall below investor expectations. We believe that a customer's decision to purchase our products and services is discretionary, involves a significant commitment of resources, and is influenced by customer budgetary cycles. To successfully sell our products and services, we generally must educate our potential customers regarding their use and benefits, which can require significant time and resources. This significant expenditure of time and resources may not result in actual sales of our products and services, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. .

New Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS 151 “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4”

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). SFAS 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal”. In addition, it requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities.

As applicable to the Company SFAS 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred after January 1, 2006. The Company believes that FAS 151, when adopted, will not have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

47

SFAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”

In May 2005, the FASB published SFAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3” (SFAS 154), SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle.  SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions.

As applicable to the Company, the provisions of FAS 154 are effective as for the year beginning January 1, 2006. The adoption of this Standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

FAS 155 “accounting for certain Hybrid Financial Instruments”

In February 2006, the FASB issued FAS 155, accounting for certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB statements No. 133 and 140. This statement permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation.

This statement shall be effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued , or subject to a remeasurement (new basis) after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year, provided that no interim period financial statements have bee issued for the financial year.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of this statement, if any, on the Company’s financial statements or its results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (SFAS 123). Among other items, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of APB 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires companies to recognize in their financial statements, the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the fair value of those awards at the grant date. The effective date of SFAS 123R is the first reporting fiscal year period beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the first quarter 2006 for the Company.

SFAS 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a “modified prospective” method, or a “modified retrospective” method. Under the “modified prospective” method, compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R. Under the “modified retrospective” method, the requirements are the same as under the “modified prospective” method, but it also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS 123.

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 (“SAB 107”). In particular, SAB 107 provides supplemental implementation guidance on SFAS 123R, including guidance on valuation methods, classification of compensation expense, inventory capitalization of share-based compensation cost, income statement effects, disclosures and several other issues. The Company will apply the principles of SAB 107 in conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123R

The Company expects that SFAS 123R, will be applied using the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the statement. Under this transition method, upon the adoption of SFAS 123R, the new standard will be implemented as from the first quarter of 2006, with no restatement of prior periods.

Considering this transition method, the Company expects that the effect of applying this statement on the Company’s results of operations in 2006 as it relates to existing option plans, would not be materially different from the FAS 123 pro forma effect previously reported.

B.    Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 was $2,954,000 compared to $609,000 during the period ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $2,345,000 or 385%. This increase was primarily as a result of an increase in loss from operational activities, in addition to a decrease in trade payable, an increase in inventories of $40,000 in the year ended 2005 compared to a decrease of $ 814,000 during the year ended 2004 and a decrease of $ 407,000 in accrued expenses and other liabilities during the year ended 2005 compared to an increase of $ 747,000 during the year ended 2004. On the other hand, our other accounts receivable and prepaid expenses decreased by $517,000 in the year ended 2005, compared to an increase of $403,000 in the year ended 2004 and our trade receivable decreased by $448,000 in the year ended 2005, compared to an increase of $398,000 in the year ended 2004.

48

Net cash used in investing activities during the period ended December 31, 2005 was $635,000 compared to $531,000 during the period ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $104,000. This increase was primarily due to investment in marketable debt securities of $ 650,000 during the year ended 2005 compared to a proceeds from maturity of $110,000 during the year 2004. On the other hand during the year 2005 we purchased property and equipment in the amount of $ 315,000 compared to $ 1,088,000 during the year 2004.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the period ended December 31, 2005 was $2,989,000 compared to $2,305,000 during the period ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $684,000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in short term bank credit of $120,000 compared to a decrease in short term bank credit of $1,122,000 in 2004 and an increase in issuance of share capital through a private placement, net of issuance costs.

As of December 31, 2005, our cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and marketable debt securities totaled $2,944,000, compared to $3,247,000 as of December 31, 2004. Restricted cash totaled $1,088,000 as of December 31, 2005 compared to $1,129,000 as of December 31, 2004. Restricted cash is invested in certificates of deposits, which mature within one year, and is used to secure agreements with a customer or a bank.

We have accumulated net losses of approximately $24,065,000 from our inception through December 31, 2005, and we have continued to accumulate net losses since December 31, 2005. Since May 1999, we have funded operations primarily through cash generated from our initial public offering on Nasdaq Europe in April 1999, which resulted in total net proceeds of approximately $23,600,000 (before offering expenses), our sale of shares of our former subsidiary, InkSure, and, to a lesser extent, borrowings from financial institutions, in 2004, private placements of our ordinary shares and warrants to purchase our ordinary shares and in 2005, private placements of our ordinary shares and warrants to purchase our ordinary shares. As of December 31, 2005, our principal source of liquidity was $2,944,000 of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. As of December 31, 2005, we had $855,000 of debt outstanding relating to obligations under our credit facility, $195,000 of debt outstanding relating to long-term loan, net of current maturities and an obligation for severance pay to Israeli employees of $616,000 of which $492,000 is provided by monthly deposits with severance pay funds, insurance policies and by an accrual.

In April 1999, we entered into an underwriting agreement to sell 2,526,316 ordinary shares plus an additional 631,579 ordinary shares offered by selling shareholders at an offering price of $10.00 per share for gross proceeds to us of approximately $25,300,000. The gross proceeds were offset by underwriting fees of $1,700,000 and offering expenses of $1,250,000 so that we received net proceeds of $22,350,000 from this public offering.

During June and July, 2004, we received aggregate gross proceeds of $1,225,000 from a private placement of 1,558,826 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 623,535 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.10 per share. In connection with the private placement, our placement advisors received warrants to purchase 77,941 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.10 per share.

In August and September 2004, we received gross proceeds of $2,200,000 from a private placement to accredited investors of 2,470,589 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 988,234 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.10 per share. In connection with the private placement, our placement agent received warrants to purchase 177,882 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $1.10 per share and 444,706 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.85 per share. All of such warrants issued in this private placement, except 444,706 warrants with an exercise price of $0.85, were called by us at a redemption price of $.01 per warrant pursuant to our right to do so if the closing price (or closing bid price) of our ordinary shares on an U.S. stock exchange, Nasdaq or the OTC Bulletin Board was equal to or greater than $2.50 per share for 10 out of any 15 consecutive trading days. The investors exercised warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,144,853 ordinary shares. During the fourth quarter of 2004, 706,912 warrants were exercised for an aggregate amount of approximately $778,000, and approximately $130,000 was received in respect of shares to be allotted in 2005. During the year 2005, 320,294 warrants were exercised for an aggregate amount of approximately $ 352,000.

In November and December of 2005, we received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,050,000 from a private placement to certain investors of 4,919,354 ordinary shares (out of which, 887,096 shares were issued after balance sheet date.) and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The private placement was made to accredited investors without general solicitation or marketing pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to foreign private investors in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. In connection with the private placement, our placement agent received a cash fee of $150,000 and our placement advisors received five-year warrants to purchase 49,677 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The investors in this private placement were granted the right, for one year following the closing of the private placement and subject to certain limitations, to participate in future issuances of our capital stock or securities (a “Subsequent Financing”) up to an amount which would permit each investor to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Subsequent Financing (after giving effect to such Subsequent Financing). Additionally, all of the warrants offered in this private placement contain an anti-dilution mechanism whereby, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price of the warrants is automatically reduced to the lowest price per share at which the ordinary shares were issued or sold if we issue or sell any ordinary shares at a price per share less than the exercise price of the warrants (a “Trigger Issuance”). However, there is a cap on the number of ordinary shares that may be purchased by any warrant holder pursuant to this anti-dilution mechanism. Each warrant holder may purchase only such number of ordinary shares which would permit such holder to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Trigger Issuance (after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance). The warrants are callable, subject to certain limitations, at our option if the closing bid price per ordinary share of our ordinary shares equals or exceeds $1.20 for 20 trading days during the term of the warrants. We may however only call, in any 3-month period, the lesser of (i) 20% of the aggregate amount of the warrants initially issued to a warrant holder, or (ii) the total number of warrants then held by such holder.

Our budget relies on our existing projects and estimated revenues from sales of our ID and smart card applications and commercial applications.

As of December 31, 2005, we had credit lines from several banks in an aggregate amount of $803,000 including current maturities of long-term loans in an amount of $167,000 (from time to time the bank may increase our credit line for a limited period), of which $587,000 is denominated in NIS and bears interest at a rate of Prime, plus an additional 0.5% to 2.5%, and $ 216,000 is denominated in dollars and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus +2.5% to +2.9%. (As of December 31, 2005, the rates of the LIBOR and Prime were 4.8% and 6% respectively) The weighted average interest rate on the credit lines as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 was approximately 5.7% and 5.9%, respectively.

We had an unused credit facility in the amount of approximately $0 as of December 31, 2005. There is no fee for the unused portion of the credit facility.

During the period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005, our capital expenditures totaled approximately $315,000 (compared to $1,088,000 during 2004 and $87,000 during 2003), of which approximately $293,000 (compared to $1,017,000 during 2004 and $78,000 during 2003) was expended at or upon SuperCom's facilities in Israel, and approximately $22,000 (compared to $71,000 during 2004 and $9,000 during 2003) was expended upon various facilities of SuperCom's subsidiaries outside Israel. Of these expenditures, approximately $48,000 during 2005 (compared to $41,000 during 2004 and $66,000 during 2003) was for capital equipment and leasehold improvements and the balance of approximately $267,000 (compared to $1,047,000 during 2004 and $21,000 during 2003) was related to information technology.

We believe that our existing capital resources together with revenue from operations and amounts available under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our planned operations through at least the next twelve months. We will be required to raise additional funds to meet our long-term planned goals. We intend to consider other alternatives for financing, which may include public or private equity financings. There can be no assurance that such additional financing, if at all available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain such additional financing, future operations will need to be scaled back further or discontinued.

C.    Research and Development

Our past research and development efforts have helped us to achieve our goal of offering our customers a complete line of products and solutions. As a result of our past efforts, we reduced the number of employees in our research and development activities to 24 people as of December 31, 2005. We spent $0.9 million, $0.8 million and $1.2 on research and development in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. These amounts were spent on the development or improvement of our technologies and products, primarily in the areas of an automatic contactless smart card production line, data capture, management software, population registry software packages, security printing, contactless smart cards and document authentication. We will continue to research and develop new security and identification features through laser printing and pre-printing, create new personalization methods for contactless smart cards, develop a range of smart card applications, continue to develop our automatic contactless smart card production line, SmartSMDS, E-Passport and new technology for active tracking solutions. There can be no assurance that we can achieve any or all of our research and development goals.

D. Trend Information

Industry Trends

The increased demand for better security systems and services has positively affected trends within the industry. Access and asset control are now leading security concerns in commercial and governmental enterprises. This has created an increasing demand, both for physical security access to buildings and logical security access to corporate networks. Our contactless smart cards provide an optimal solution to these problems as they deliver stronger authentication of network users and they store personal data for highly secure physical access control.

Another major trend is the widespread deployment of smart credentials and travel documents. From among the three main credentials (e-passport, ID card, drivers’ license) in use on a governmental level, the electronic smart passport is posed to be the frontrunner and leads the way for the others. As a global credential, it is the only one based on international standards and will therefore most likely serve as the base from which the standards of other credentials on national, local and commercial levels will be derived.

Market and Operational Trends

Our quarterly operations results may be subject to significant fluctuations due to several factors. Some of these factors are based primarily on the timing of large orders, which represent a significant percentage of our revenues, customer budget cycles and impact on the timing for buying decisions, competitive pressures, the ability of our partners, distributors and system integrators to become effective in selling and marketing our products, as well as other factors.

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, we observed a slight increase in our production. We have also observed a considerable increase in marketing leads from our growing partnerships, distributions and systems integration network, and a particular interest by government customers in electronic passports (e-passports). We expect to continue to benefit from marketing programs and leads generated by this network, as well as sales opportunities identified by them. We intend to expand our marketing and implementation capacity through these third parties, including vendors of complementary products and providers of service applications. By employing third parties in the marketing and implementation process, we expect to enhance sales by taking advantage of their market presence.

A significant portion of our 2005 revenues have been derived from our governmental projects and the remainder have been derived from commercial products. Historically, our revenues have been concentrated in a few large orders and in a relatively small number of customers, a trend that has been increasing over time and a trend that we expect to continue to influence our revenues.

Our revenues from the government market for 2005 and 2004 totaled $7,519,000 and $6,330,000, respectively. In comparison our revenues from the commercial market for 2005 and 2004 totaled $943,000 and $1,014,000, respectively. We anticipate that our mix of revenues from government and commercial markets for 2006 will be consistent with our mix of revenues in 2005.

For more information about our expectations regarding future cost of revenues, future operating expenses and liquidity and capital resources, please refer to the section captioned“Risk Factors, ” under Section D of Item 3 and the sections captioned “Results of Operations” and“Liquidity and Capital Resources” under Sections A and B, respectively, of Item 5 “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects”.

Our development and marketing efforts for the solution and product platforms are aimed at addressing several systems and service trends that we see developing in the industry:

In 2003, the ICAO mandated the inclusion of biometric authentication technology in passports. We believe that the e-passport trend, from our point of view, should have an apparent impact on our income from operations during the next few years. As we have developed a flexible end-to-end solution for electronic passports, we believe that this trend will significantly affect our business forecast, as well as influence vertical markets in the smart card industry. Our combined experience in passport application projects worldwide and our position as a leading smart card inlay manufacturer provides us with what we believe is an advantage. We are aggressively bidding on a number of large national identification projects and expect to achieve fair results.

51

During the second half of the year 2005, our Vend-EZ(TM) contactless smart card-based cashless purchasing solution was approved by one of world's largest consumer products companies for use in its vending machines in the United States. We are going to re-evaluate our marketing and sales efforts with regard to this solution by the beginning of the year 2007.

In May, 2005 we received our first order for our SmartDSMS product from the city of Columbus, Ohio, which assists users in managing recovery operations. The solution was deployed during the second quarter of 2005.

As a result of these trends and combined with our core strengths, we are focusing on products and solutions that we believe will be significantly influential in the present and future markets. As of the date of this annual report, we expect that our 2006 revenues will be primarily derived from:

· Smart ID technologies;

· High security solution integration;

· Expertise in multi-application smart cards, integration know-how; and

· Extensive experience with the government ID market.

Recent Developments and Outlook

We expect revenues to continue to be derived from one-time sales and recurring fees, sales of high-end solutions, sales of products, consumables and technology. Sales are expected to continue through OEM partnerships and continual upgrades, maintenance and support will continue to be provided to customers.

We recently entered into a lease agreement for a new office in Kadima, Israel, which replaced our office in Ra’anna, Israel. As a result of this relocation as part of a cost-cutting program, we wrote off certain assets.

In June 2006, we announced that we won a tender for the issuance of fire-arm license IDs and the licensing of guards to carry fire arms with the Israeli Ministry of the Interior. The project is valued at up to $500,000. This is the second time that we have been awarded a fire-arm licenses tender in Israel, following an initial award of $200,000 in 2003.

In May 2006, we announced that our U.S. subsidiary, SuperCom, Inc., has received a United States General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule Contract for its products including its Homeland Security and First responder product line.  This contract award enables all U.S. federal and state agencies to buy SuperCom products from a GSA-approved price list with agreed upon terms and conditions. As a GSA business partner, SuperCom and the GSA will proceed to form a marketing partnership. GSA Schedules provide a direct and effective procurement vehicle that satisfies the Government’s extensive requirements with simple administrative processes that significantly reduce the time and expense of acquisition, for both the contractor and the federal customer.

In April 2006, we announced that we have received a $600,000 follow-on order from a West European government. The order is expected to be delivered during 2006 and follows the successful completion of E-Passport and the first stage of an eID project for the European government.

In April 2006, we announced that we have received a follow-on order from one of our governmental customers, following the successful implementation of an e-ID system that was delivered to the customer in 2005. The contract, which includes raw materials supply, maintenance and software support services over a period of 5 years starting from the first quarter of 2006, is valued at $1.25 million.

In March 2006, we announced plans for Eyal Tuchman, Chief Financial Officer of Supercom over the past three years, to succeed Avi Schechter as Chief Executive Officer in April 2006. Mr. Schechter will continue to serve as a consultant for the Company.

In February 2006, we announced the introduction of a new technology for the tracking of people and assets, and the establishment of a new subsidiary in the U.S., Pure RF Inc., which will focus on this growing market. The new technology expands our Homeland Security offerings through a Wireless Asset Tracking System for strategic and high value items. This offering will be provided to customers through the new subsidiary. The development of this new technology, as well as the establishment of the new subsidiary, is due to the growing market demand for asset tracking solutions in general and particularly in the Homeland Security market. SuperCom’s “Pure RF™” Movement Detection Solution monitors and tracks large number of  items simultaneously, providing  an active set of different signals and alerts. The software and hardware solution employs small, low-powered RF tags attached to an object or a person. License-free radio bands are used to track the RF band from a base transmitter that is programmable for periodic or event-driven transmissions. “Pure RF™” can monitor and locate tagged items through a hand-held tracking device, which can also be integrated into cellular phones.

In February 2006, we also announced that R. James Woolsey, former Director of Central Intelligence and one of America’s preeminent authorities on security issues, will be named Chairman of our newly created Advisory Board. The Advisory Board was established to enhance our presence in the United States and other nations, and to help identify new applications for our technologies in the homeland security, defense and document authentication markets. In an era when both government and the private sector are faced with unprecedented challenges to protect public safety and personal privacy, the Advisory Board will serve to extend our forward-looking technologies into the U.S. market. Mr. Woolsey will be joined on the Advisory Board by other distinguished Americans with experience in national security issues. Additional Advisory Board members will be announced in the near future.

In January 2006, we announced an award of a tender to provide the technology for a biometric passport issuing and control system for a country in western Europe. The implementation of the project started during first quarter of 2006. The contract is for the implementation of a biometric passport issuing and control system, and includes a six-year contract for maintenance and support.

Due to the Ukraine ID Project litigation, we did not recognize any revenues from this project during the year 2004 and 2005. During 2003, we generated an aggregate of $1,970,000 in revenues from this project. If we are not able to replace this revenue with revenue from other projects, we expect our revenues to decrease and our net loss to increase in 2006. See Item 3, “Risk Factors”- We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from a small number of customers, and the reduction of sales to any one of those customers could adversely impact our operating results by causing a drop in revenues.” above. During 2004, we classified the cost of goods that were sold to the Ukraine Ministry of Internal Affairs from trade receivables to inventory. As a result of negative developments in the arbitration relating to the Ukraine ID project, we wrote off inventory in the amount of approximately $287,000 in the fourth quarter of 2005. Moreover, there is no assurance that we will ultimately collect the amounts due under our contract with the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.

In May, 2005 we received our first order for our SmartDSMS product from the city of Columbus, Ohio, which assists users in managing recovery operations. The solution was deployed during the second quarter of 2005.

On May 5, 2005, the U.S. Government Printing Office (“GPO”) issued a Notice of Termination for Convenience involving our participation in the three-phase testing of technology for a new electronic passport project. While an earlier termination notice was withdrawn after discussions with the GPO, our attempts to persuade the GPO to withdraw the current termination notice have been unsuccessful. The notice terminates our contract awards for the Electronic Passport Program. While the termination notice does not specify the reason for its issuance, we understand from our discussions with the GPO that it is based on unresolved security concerns and not related to our technological solution or our cost proposal. On March 24, 2005, we terminated our agreement with Intercomsoft relating to the national documentation project in Moldova. Under the terms of the termination agreement, we will supply equipment, consumables and software directly to the Moldovan government. We have not, however, entered into a contract with the Moldovan government. We are being paid by the Moldovan government per purchase order. We do not expect any significant changes in our revenues as a result of the termination of this agreement.

In January 2005, we announced that we have signed an agreement with the government of an European country to deploy a biometric visa issuance system in its embassies throughout the world. The project’s first stage has an estimated value of approximately $500,000.

In December 2004, we announced that we have entered into an agreement with an African governmental agency to provide an end-to-end “Magna” national identification system valued at $2.5 million during the term of the agreement, which is five years. The solution will be deployed in stages that began in the fourth quarter of 2004 and will continue through the end of the fourth quarter of 2005.  Revenues were recognized during the year 2004 and 2005, of $ 637,230 and $ 1,917,671 respectively and we anticipate additional revenues from this project during the coming years.

During the fourth quarter of 2004, we sold an automated smart card production system to the government of an European nation. We recognized revenues from the sale in the amount of approximately $1.25 million during the forth quarter 2004. During the year 2005 our revenues from this project were $ 202,000.

Under the Companies Law and the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, Israeli public companies, namely companies whose shares have been offered to the public, or that are publicly traded are required to appoint at least two natural persons as “external directors”. A person may not be appointed as an external director if the person, or a relative, partner or employer of the person, or any entity under the person’s control, has or had, on or within the two years preceding the date of the person’s appointment to serve as an external director, any affiliation with the company to whose board the external director is proposed to be appointed, with the controlling shareholder of such company or with any entity controlling or controlled by such company or by the controlling shareholder of such company. The term “affiliation” includes an employment relationship, a business or professional relationship maintained on a regular basis, control and service as an office holder (which term includes a director).

57

In addition, no person may serve as an external director if the person’s position or other business activities create, or may create, a conflict of interest with the person’s responsibilities as an external director or interfere with the person’s ability to serve as an external director or if the person is an employee of the Israel Securities Authority or of an Israeli stock exchange. If, at the time of election of an external director, all other directors are of the same gender, the external director to be elected must be of the other gender.

Pursuant to a recent amendment to the Companies Law, at least one of the external directors, as well as a number of the non-external directors to be determined by the board of directors, are required to have “accounting and financial skills” and the other external directors are required to have "professional skills", as such terms are defined in regulations recently promulgated under the Companies Law.

Each committee of a company’s board of directors that has the authority to exercise powers of the board of directors is required to include at least one external director and its audit committee must include all external directors.

External directors are elected at the general meeting of shareholders by a simple majority, provided that the majority includes at least one-third of the shareholders who are not controlling shareholders, who are present and voting, or that the non-controlling shareholders who vote against the election hold one percent or less of the voting power of the company. Notwithstanding the above, regulations under the Companies Law provide that with respect to companies such as us, whose shares are traded on a stock exchange outside of Israel, the board of directors may determine that a director appointed prior to February 1, 2000 (the effective date of the Companies Law), who meets the above qualifications, be deemed an external director even if the person served as a director when the Companies Law became effective. In such case shareholder approval is not required.

At our 2003 Annual General Meeting held on June 30, 2003, Esther Koren and Avi Elkind were each re-elected to serve as external directors for an additional term of three years ending on June 30, 2006. However, Esther Koren resigned as a member of our Board of Directors due to personal reasons effective July 14, 2004. Ms. Michal Brikman was subsequently appointed to our Board of Directors as an External Director which was approved by our shareholders at a special general shareholder meeting on October 28, 2004. In addition, Ms. Brikman was appointed to the audit committee.

Under the Companies Law, an external director cannot be dismissed from office unless: (i) the board of directors determines that the external director no longer meets the statutory requirements for holding the office, or that the external director has breached the external director's fiduciary duties and the shareholders vote, by the same majority required for the appointment, to remove the external director after the external director has been given the opportunity to present his or her position; (ii) a court determines, upon a request of a director or a shareholder, that the external director no longer meets the statutory requirements of an external director or that the external director has breached his or her fiduciary duties to the company; or (iii) a court determines, upon a request of the company or a director, shareholder or creditor of the company, that the external director is unable to fulfill his or her duty or has been convicted of specified crimes.

Board Committees

We have the following committees:

Audit Committee

The Companies Law requires public companies to appoint an audit committee comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors, and further stipulates that the chairman of the board of directors of a public company, any director employed by or providing other services on a regular basis to the company and the controlling shareholder or any relative of the controlling shareholder of such company may not be members of the audit committee of the company. We have an audit committee (the "Audit Committee"), a majority of whose members, including the Chairman, satisfy the criteria of independence as required by Israeli law. The functions of the Audit Committee include, among others, reviewing and evaluating the results and scope of the audit and other services provided by our independent accountants. In addition, tasks include reviewing our accounting principles and system of internal auditing controls and approving actions or transactions requiring Audit Committee approval under the Companies Law or the Articles of Association. The Audit Committee is comprised of Mr. Avi Elkind, Ms.Michal Brikman and Mr. Daniel Spira.

58

Remuneration Committee

We have a remuneration committee (the "Remuneration Committee"). The Remuneration Committee is responsible for making recommendations on remuneration of Named Executive Officers and the implementation of the Employee Share Option Plan. The Named Executive Officers and our senior officers are paid fairly and commensurably with their contributions to furthering our strategic direction and objectives. We also grant stock options to our officers, directors and employees from time to time in accordance with our stock option plan. The Remuneration Committee is comprised of Avi Elkind, Ms. Michal Brikman and Mr. Daniel Spira.

Management Employment Agreements

We maintain written employment agreements with substantially all of our key employees. These agreements provide, among other matters, for monthly salaries, our contributions to Managers’ Insurance and an Education Fund and severance benefits. All of our agreements with our key employees are subject to termination by either party upon the delivery of notice of termination as provided therein.

D.    Employees

As of December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had 57 and 67 full-time employees, respectively. The following table describes our employees and the employees of our subsidiaries by department.

	Dec. 31, 2003	Dec. 31, 2004	Dec. 31, 2005
Research, Development & Manufacturing	21	28	24
Marketing and Sales	27	27	23
Administration	11	12	10
Total	59	67	57

From time to time, we have engaged temporary employees to fill open positions. These temporary employees, however, historically have not comprised a material number of our employees.

As of December 31, 2005 all but 18 of our employees are located at our, Israel location.

SuperCom’s Israeli employees are not part of a collective bargaining agreement. However, in Israel we are subject to certain labor statutes, and to certain provisions of collective bargaining agreements between the Histadrut, the General Federation of Labor in Israel, and the Coordinating Bureau of Economic Organizations, including the Industrialists' Association. These are applicable to our employees by virtue of expansion orders of the Israeli Ministry of Labor and Welfare. These statutes and provisions principally concern the length of the workday, minimum daily wages for professional workers, procedures for dismissing employees, determination of severance pay, annual and other vacations, sick pay and other conditions for employment. In addition, by virtue of such expansion order all employees in Israelare entitled to automatic adjustment of wages relative to increases in the Consumer Price Index in Israel. The amount and frequency of these adjustments are modified from time to time. We provide our employees with benefits and working conditions that comply with the required minimum.

Generally, all male adult citizens and permanent residents of Israel under the age of 45 are, unless exempt, obligated to perform up to 30 days of military reserve duty annually. Additionally, all such residents are subject to being called to active duty at any time under emergency circumstances. Some of our officers and employees are obligated to perform annual reserve duty. While we have operated effectively under these requirements since we began operations, no assessment can be made as to the full impact of such requirements on our workforce or business if conditions should change, and no prediction can be made as to the effect on us of any expansion of such obligations.

All of our employees have entered into confidentiality agreements. We have also granted certain employees options to purchase shares of our ordinary shares under our option plan. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good and have never experienced a strike or work stoppage.

59

E.    Share Ownership

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares by our directors and Named Executive Officer as of May 31, 2006. As of that date, we had 23,315,994 ordinary shares outstanding.

Name	Ordinary Shares held directly and beneficially	% of Outstanding Ordinary Shares as of May 31, 2006
Eli Rozen	3,271,340(1)	13.54%
Avi Landman	2,429,097(2)	10.38%
Directors and Named Executive Officers as a Group ([9] persons)	6,716,359(3)	26.59%

(1) Includes (a) 2,425,359 shares held directly by Eli Rozen, and (b) options to purchase 845,981 ordinary shares which are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of May 31, 2006, of which 679,314 ordinary shares are held by Finel Architecture and Engineering Ltd., a company owned solely by Mr. Rozen (“Finel”).

All of our ordinary shares have identical voting rights.

Share Option Plans

On February 14, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted, and our shareholders subsequently approved, the 1999 Employee Stock Option Plan Option Plan, which was amended and restated in March 2002(the "1999 Option Plan"). We no longer use the 1999 Option Plan to issue stock options. In 2003, we adopted a new stock option plan under which we now issue stock options (the “Option Plan”). In December 2004, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the SEC registering (i) 1,000,000 ordinary shares available for issuance upon exercise of stock options reserved for grant under the Option Plan, (ii) 3,494,315 ordinary shares issued or issuable upon exercise of options previously granted under the Option Plan, and (iii) 643,595 ordinary shares issued or issuable upon exercise of options previously granted under the 1999 Option Plan.The Option Plan is intended to provide incentives to our employees, officers, directors and/or consultants by providing them with the opportunity to purchase our ordinary shares. Under the Option Plan, options to purchase an aggregate of up to the number of our authorized ordinary shares (40,000,000) may, from time to time, be awarded to any employee, officer, director and/or consultant. The Option Plan is, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, administered by the Remuneration Committee, and is designed: (i) to comply with Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance or any provision which may amend or replace it and rules promulgated thereunder and to enable us and grantees thereunder to benefit from Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance and the Commissioner’s Rules; and (ii) to enable us to grant options and issue shares outside the context of Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance. Options become exercisable ratably over a period of three to five years, commencing with the date of grant. The options generally expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. Any options, which are forfeited or canceled before expiration, become available for future grants.

During 2005, options to purchase a total of 540,000, 165,005, and 221,666 ordinary shares (having respective weighted exercise prices of $0.84, $0.94 and $0.42 per share) were awarded, cancelled and exercised, respectively, under this Plan. As of December 31, 2005, under this Plan, options to purchase a total of 3,505,706 ordinary shares and having a weighted average exercise price of $0.98 per share, were outstanding.

As a result of an amendment to Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance as part of the 2003 Israeli tax reform, and pursuant to an election made by us thereunder, capital gains derived by optionees arising from the sale of shares pursuant to the exercise of options granted to them under Section 102 after January 1, 2003, will generally be subject to a flat capital gains tax rate of 25%. Previously, such gains were taxed as salary income at the employee’s marginal tax rate (which could be up to 50%). However, as a result of this election, we will no longer be allowed to claim as an expense for tax purposes the amounts credited to such employees as a benefit when the related capital gains tax is payable by them, as we had previously been entitled to do under Section 102. For certain information as to the Israeli tax reform, see “Taxation.”

60

On December 29, 2005, our Board of Directors and our audit committee, approved the acceleration of the vesting schedule for certain of the stock options granted to our employees and officers as an incentive. As a result, options to purchase a total of 712,500 ordinary shares became exercisable as of such date.

A summary of our stock option activity, and related information is as follows:

	Year ended December 31
	2003					2004					2005

To the best of our knowledge based on the information known to us, there have not been any significant change in the percentage ownership of the Company’s major shareholders during the last three years other than changes resulting from our private placements in 2004 and 2005 and the exercise of warrants issued in those offerings, and the grant of options to Messrs. Rozen and Landman.

As of December 31, 2005, to the best of our knowledge based on the information available to us, we had approximately 70 total registered holders of our ordinary shares. As of December 31, 2005 to the best of our knowledge based on the information available to us, approximately 40% of our total outstanding ordinary shares were held by U.S. residents.

To the best of our knowledge based on the information available to us, there are no existing arrangements that may at a future date result in a change of control of SuperCom.

B. Related Party Transactions 

It is our policy to enter into transactions with related parties on terms that, on the whole, are no less favorable than those that would be available from unaffiliated parties. Based on our experience in the business segments in which we operate and the terms of our transactions with unaffiliated third parties, we believe that all of the transactions described below met our policy standards at the time they occurred.

Dividend Policy

         We have not distributed a dividend since August 27, 1997 and we do not anticipate any dividend distribution in the foreseeable future. Dividends may only be paid out of our profits legally available for distribution (the “Profits Criteria”) under the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the “Companies Law”),, and provided that there is no reasonable concern that such payment will prevent us from satisfying our existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due. In addition, a competent court may approve, as per a motion to be filed by a company in accordance with the Companies Law requirements, a payment which does not meet the Profit Criteria, provided that the court was convinced that there is no reasonable concern that such payment will prevent the company from satisfying its existing and foreseeable obligations as they become due.

In accordance with our articles of association, a dividend shall be proposed by the board of directors and shall be payable only after the same has been approved by ordinary resolution of the shareholders meeting, but no such resolution shall provide for the payment of an amount exceeding the amount proposed by the board of directors.

Subject to the rights of the holders of shares as to dividends, any dividend paid by us shall be allocated among the members entitled thereto in proportion to the sum paid up or credited as paid up on account of the nominal value of their respective holding of the shares in respect of which such dividend is being paid, without taking into account the premium paid up for the shares.

Legal Proceedings

We are party to legal proceedings in the normal course of our business. Other than as described under the heading “Legal Proceedings” under Section B of Item 4, there are no material pending legal proceedings in which we are a party or to which our property is subject. Although the outcome of claims and lawsuits against us can not be accurately predicted, we do not believe that any of the claims and lawsuits described in this paragraph, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for any quarterly or annual period, other than as described under the heading “Legal Proceedings” under Section B of Item 4.

Israeli Taxation

The following is a summary of the current material Israeli tax laws applicable to companies in Israel with special reference to its effect on us. This section also contains a discussion of certain Israeli government programs from which we may benefit. This summary does not discuss all the acts of Israeli tax law that may be relevant to a particular investor in light of his or her personal investment circumstances or to some types of investors subject to special treatment under Israeli law. Examples of this kind of investor include traders in securities or persons that own, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding capital, all of whom are subject to special tax regimes not covered in this discussion. Some parts of this discussion are based on new tax legislation that has not been subject to judicial or administrative interpretation. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the views expressed in the discussion will be accepted by the tax authorities in question. The discussion is not intended and should not be construed as legal or professional tax advice and does not cover all possible tax considerations.

Potential investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the Israeli or other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares, including, in particular, the effect of any foreign, state or local taxes.

The following discussion describes the material Israeli tax consequences regarding ownership and disposition of SuperCom’s ordinary shares applicable to non-Israeli shareholders, including U.S. shareholders.

General Corporate Tax Structure

Israeli companies are generally subject to corporate tax on their taxable income at a rate that is 34% for the 2005 tax year. This rate was 35% in the 2004 tax year and will be 31% in the 2006 tax year, 29% for the 2007 tax year, 27% for the 2008 tax year, 26% for the 2009 tax year and 25% thereafter.

However, as discussed below, the rate is effectively reduced for income derived from an “approved enterprise.”

Special provisions relating to taxation under inflationary conditions

The Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985, generally referred to as the Inflationary Adjustments Law, represents an attempt to overcome the problems presented to a traditional tax system by an economy undergoing rapid inflation. The Inflationary Adjustments Law is highly complex. The provisions that are material to us, are summarized as follows:

Ø Where a company’s equity, as calculated under the Inflationary Adjustments Law, exceeds the depreciated cost of its fixed assets (as defined in the Inflationary Adjustments Law), a deduction from taxable income is permitted equal to the above excess multiplied by the applicable annual rate of inflation. The maximum deduction permitted in any single tax year is 70% of taxable income, with the unused portion permitted to be carried forward, linked to the Israeli consumer price index.

67

Ø Where a company’s depreciated cost of fixed assets exceeds its equity, then the excess multiplied by the applicable annual rate of inflation is added to taxable income.

Ø Subject to specified limitations, depreciation deductions on fixed assets and losses carried forward are adjusted for inflation based on the change in the consumer price index.

Under the Inflationary Adjustments Law, results for tax purposes are measured in real terms, in accordance with changes in the Israeli consumer price index. We are taxed under this law. The difference between the change in the Israeli consumer price index and the exchange rate of Israeli currency in relation to the dollar may in future periods cause significant differences between taxable income and the income measured in dollars as reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969

Under the Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969 (the “Industry Encouragement Law”), a company qualifies as an “Industrial Company” if it is a resident in Israel and at least 90% of its income in a given tax year (exclusive of certain income) is derived from Industrial Enterprises which was defined as an enterprise whose major activity in a particular tax year is industrial manufacturing. As of the date of this prospectus, we were qualified as such.

A qualifying Industrial Company is entitled to deduct expenses related to public offering in equal amounts over three years and is also entitled to amortization of the cost of purchased know-how and patents over an eight - year period for tax purposes. Additionally, under certain income tax regulations, Industrial Companies qualify for special accelerated depreciation rates. An Industrial Company owning an Approved Enterprise (see “Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959” below) may choose between the above depreciation rates and the depreciation rules available to Approved Enterprises.

Qualification as an Industrial Company is not conditional upon the receipt of prior approval from any Israeli Government authority. No assurance can be given that we will continue to qualify as an Industrial Company or will in the future be able to avail itself of any benefits available to companies so qualifying.

Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investment, 1959

The Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investment, 1959 (the “Investment Law”) provides that capital investment in a production facility (or other eligible assets) may, upon application to the Israeli Investment Center, be designated as an “Approved Enterprise”. Each certificate of approval for an Approved Enterprise relates to a specific investment program, delineated both by the financial scope of the investment and by the physical characteristics of the facility or the asset. A company having an Approved Enterprise is entitled to certain benefits, including Israeli Government cash grants and tax benefits.

In April 2005, a comprehensive amendment to the Investment Law came into effect. Our current tax benefits are subject to the provisions of the Investment Law prior to its revision, while new benefits that will be received in the future, if any, will be subject to the provisions of the Investment Law, as amended. Accordingly, the following discussion is a summary of the Investment Law prior to its amendment as well as the relevant changes contained in the new legislation.

According to the Investment Law prior to its amendment, in order to obtain benefits, an approval from the Investment Center of the Israeli Ministry of Industry and Trade had to be obtained. Each certificate of approval for an Approved Enterprise relates to a specific investment program in the Approved Enterprise, delineated both by the financial scope of the investment and by the physical characteristics of the facility or the asset.

An Approved Enterprise may elect to forego any entitlement to the grants otherwise available under the Investment Law and, in lieu of the foregoing, participate in an alternative benefits program, under which the undistributed income from the Approved Enterprise is fully exempt from corporate tax for a defined period of time. The period of tax exemption ranges between two and 10 years, depending upon the location within Israel of the Approved Enterprise and the type of Approved Enterprise. Upon expiration of the exemption period, the Approved Enterprise would be eligible for the otherwise applicable reduced tax rates under the Investment Law for the remainder, if any, of the otherwise applicable benefits period. If a company has more than one Approved Enterprise program or if only a portion of its capital investments are approved, its effective tax rate is the result of a weighted combination of the applicable rates. The tax benefits from any certificate of approval relate only to taxable profits attributable to the specific Approved Enterprise. Income derived from activity that is not integral to the activity of the Approved Enterprise should not be divided between the different Approved Enterprises and would therefore not enjoy tax benefits.

68

Income derived from an Approved Enterprise is generally subject to a tax rate of 25% for a period of seven years. However, further reductions in tax rates depending on the percentage of the non-Israeli investment in a company’s share capital (conferring rights to profits, voting and appointment of directors) and the percentage of its combined share and loan capital owned by non-Israeli residents, would apply. The tax rate is 20% if the non-Israeli investment level is 49% or more but less than 74%, 15% if the non-Israeli investment level is 74% or more but less than 90%, and 10% if the non-Israeli investment level is 90% or more. The lowest level of foreign investment during the year will be used to determine the relevant tax rate for that year. These tax benefits are granted for a limited period not exceeding seven years or 10 years with respect to a company whose foreign investment level exceeds 25% during the first year in which the Approved Enterprise has taxable income after utilizing its net operating losses. The period of benefits may in no event, however, exceed thelesser of (a) 12 years from the year in which the program was activated and (b) 14 years from the year of receipt of Approved Enterprise status.

A company that has elected to participate in the alternative benefits program and that subsequently pays a dividend out of the income derived from the Approved Enterprise during the tax exemption period will be subject to corporate tax in respect of the amount distributed (including withholding tax thereon) at the rate that would have been applicable had the company not elected the alternative benefits program (generally 10% to 25%). The dividend recipient is taxed at the reduced withholding tax rate of 15%, applicable to dividends from the Approved Enterprises if the dividend is distributed within 12 years after the benefits period or other rate provided under a treaty. The withholding tax rate will be 20% or 25% for a substantial shareholder after such period or a lower rate as provided by a relevant treaty. In the case of a company with a foreign investment level (as defined by the Investment Law) of 25% or more, the 12-year limitation on reduced withholding tax on dividends does not apply.

The Investment Law also provides that an Approved Enterprise is entitled to accelerated tax depreciation on property and equipment included in an approved investment program.

The benefits available to an Approved Enterprise are conditional upon our fulfilling certain conditions stipulated in the Investment Law and its regulations and the criteria set forth in the specific certificate of approval. If we were to violate those conditions, in whole or in part, we would be required to refund the amount of tax benefits, plus an amount linked to the Israeli consumer price index, plus interest and penalties.

Pursuant to the recent amendment to the Investment Law, only Approved Enterprises receiving cash grants require the approval of the Investment Center. Approved Enterprises that do not receive benefits in the form of governmental cash grants, such as benefits in the form of tax benefits, are no longer required to obtain this approval. In lieu of such approval, these Approved Enterprises are required to make certain investments as specified in the law. Such Approved Enterprises may, at their discretion, elect to apply for a pre-ruling from the Israeli tax authorities confirming that they are in compliance with the provisions of the law.

The amended Investment Law specifies certain conditions that an Approved Enterprise has to comply with in order to be entitled to benefits. These conditions include:

Ø that the Approved Enterprise’s revenues from any single country not exceed 75% of the Approved Enterprise’s total revenues; or

Ø that 25% of the Approved Enterprise’s revenues during the benefits period be derived from sales into a single country with a population of at least 12 million.

In addition, the amendment addresses benefits that are being granted to Approved Enterprises and the length of the benefits period. For example, under the alternative program, an Approved Enterprise located in certain areas that used to be tax-exempt is now entitled to elect to pay an 11.5% tax rate instead, and, in such case, upon the distribution of its profits, no additional corporate tax will be paid. In addition, if an Approved Enterprise elects to pay the 11.5% tax rate, dividends that may be distributed to foreign residents will be subject only to a 4% withholding tax.

SuperCom has three Alternative Benefits Programs under the Investment Law, which entitle us to certain tax benefits. The benefits available to a company having an Approved Enterprise are conditional upon the fulfillment of certain conditions stipulated in the Investment Law and its regulations and the criteria set forth in the specific certificate of approval We believe our Approved Enterprises operate in substantial compliance with all such conditions and criteria as of December 31, 2005.

Taxation of Capital Gains Applicable to Israeli Shareholders and Non-Israeli Shareholders

General

Israeli law generally imposes a capital gains tax on the sale of any capital assets by residents of Israel, as defined for Israeli tax purposes, and on the sale of assets located in Israel, including shares in Israeli companies, by both residents and non-residents of Israel, unless a specific exemption is available or unless a tax treaty between Israel and the shareholder’s country of residence provides otherwise. The law distinguishes between real gain and inflationary surplus. The inflationary surplus is a portion of the total capital gain which is equivalent to the increase of the relevant asset’s purchase price which is attributable to the increase in the Israeli consumer price index or, in certain circumstances, a foreign currency exchange rate, between the date of purchase and the date of sale. The real gain is the excess of the total capital gain over the inflationary surplus.

Israeli residents

Individuals and corporations which are not subject to the provisions of the Inflationary Adjustments Law The law in effect until December 31, 2005

Pursuant to the Tax Reform, generally, capital gains tax is imposed on Israeli residents at a rate of 15% on real gains derived on or after January 1, 2003, from the sale of shares in Israeli companies publicly traded on a recognized stock market in a country that has a treaty for the prevention of double taxation with Israel. (such as NASDAQ) or companies traded on both the TASE and NASDAQ or another recognized stock market. This tax rate is contingent upon the shareholder not claiming a deduction for financing expenses in connection with such shares, and does not apply to: (i) the sale of shares to a relative (as defined in the Tax Reform); (ii) the sale of shares by dealers in securities; (iii) the sale of shares by shareholders that report in accordance with the Inflationary Adjustments Law; or (iv) the sale of shares by shareholders who acquired their shares prior to an initial public offering (that are subject to a different tax arrangement). The tax basis of shares acquired prior to January 1, 2003 will be determined in accordance with the average closing share price in the three trading days preceding January 1, 2003. However, a request may be made to the tax authorities to consider the actual adjusted cost of the shares as the tax basis if it is higher than such average price.

Corporations which are subject to the provisions of the Inflationary Adjustments Law

In 2005, the gain on the sale of securities is subject to tax at the date of sale, at the corporate tax law for that year ( 34%), on the entire increase in value in real terms from the date of purchase until the date of sale.

The law, commencing January 1, 2006:

Individuals:

Commencing in January 1, 2006, a real capital gain deriving to an individual will be taxed at a rate of 20%, on condition that the income is not classified as business income from the vantage point of the individual. This will apply to the entire real capital gain accrued since the date of purchase, or since January 1, 2003 if the purchase preceded that date.

Notwithstanding the above, the real capital gain will be taxed at a rate of 25% in the following instances:

1.The individual deducts interest expenses and linkage differentials.

2.The seller is a "significant shareholder" at the date of the sale of the securities or at any time during the 12-month period preceding the sale. A "significant shareholder" is defined in general as shareholder who holds, either directly or indirectly, alone or together with another, at least 10% of any form of a means of control in a company. The term "together with another" means together with a relative, or together with someone who is not a relative with which the individual, either directly or indirectly, has a regular cooperative agreement regarding the affairs of the company.

70

Companies not subject to the provisions of the Adjustment Law:

Companies not subject to the provisions of the Adjustment Law in 2005, will be taxed at a rate of 25% upon the capital gain on the sale of securities in the period 2006 - 2009. In 2010 and thereafter, capital gains will be taxed at a corporate rate, which in 2010 is expected to be 25%.

Companies subject to the provisions of the Adjustment Law:

The real capital gain on the sale of securities by a company subject to the provisions of the Adjustment Law will be taxed at the corporate tax rate applicable during the year of sale, as follows: 2006 - 31%, 2007 - 29%, 2008 - 27%, 2009 - 26%, 2010 - 25%.

Non-Israeli residents:

Non-residents of Israel will be exempt from capital gains tax in relation to the sale of ordinary shares for as long as (a) the ordinary shares are listed for trading on a stock exchange in a jurisdiction with which Israel has a treaty, (b) the capital gains are not accrued or derived by the non-resident shareholder’s permanent enterprise in Israel, (c) the ordinary shares in relation to which the capital gains are accrued or derived were acquired by the non-resident shareholder after the initial listing of the ordinary shares on a stock exchange outside of Israel and (d) neither the shareholder nor the particular capital gain is otherwise subject to certain sections of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance.

However, non-Israeli corporations will not be entitled to such exemption if an Israeli resident (i) has a controlling interest of 25% or more in such non-Israeli corporation, or (ii) is the beneficiary or is entitled to 25% or more of the revenues or profits of such non-Israeli corporation, whether directly or indirectly.

In addition, pursuant to the Income Tax Treaty between Israel and the United States, which we refer to as the Tax Treaty, gains derived from the sale, exchange or disposition of our ordinary shares by a person who qualifies as a resident of the United States within the meaning of the Tax Treaty and who is entitled to claim the benefits afforded to US residents under the Tax Treaty, referred to as a Treaty US Resident, would not be subject to Israeli capital gains tax, unless such Treaty US Resident owned, directly or indirectly, shares representing 10% or more of the voting power of our company at any time during the 12-month period preceding such sale, exchange or disposition.

In some instances where SuperCom shareholders may be liable to Israeli tax on the sale of their ordinary shares, the payment of the consideration may be subject to the withholding of Israeli tax at the source. However, under the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty, such Treaty U.S. Resident would be permitted to claim a credit for such taxes against the U.S. federal income tax imposed with respect to such sale, exchange or disposition, subject to the limitations in U.S. laws applicable to foreign tax credits. The U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty does not relate to U.S. state or local taxes.

Income Taxes on Dividend Distribution to Israeli and Non-Israeli Shareholders

According to the Israeli tax law, any distribution of dividend from income attributed to an “Approved Enterprise” will be subject to tax in Israel at the rate of 15%.

Any distribution of dividend from income, which is not attributed to an “Approved Enterprise” will be subject to tax in Israel at the rate of 20%, except for dividend distributed, to Individual deemed “a substantial shareholder” which will be subject to tax at the rate of 25%.

Under the Tax Treaty, the maximum Israeli withholding tax on dividends paid to a holder of shares who is a Treaty US Resident is 25%. However, as mentioned above under “—Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959”, dividends of an Israeli company paid out of income derived from an Approved Enterprise during the benefit period will still be subject to a reduced tax rate of 15%.

The Tax Treaty further provides that a 12.5% Israeli withholding tax would apply to dividends paid to a US corporation owning 10% or more of an Israeli company’s voting stock during, in general, the current and preceding tax years of the Israeli company. The lower 12.5% rate applies only to dividends from income not derived from an Approved Enterprise in the applicable period and provided that not more than 25% of the Israeli company’s gross income consists of interest or dividend.

71

A non-resident of Israel who has dividend income derived from or accrued in Israel, from which tax was withheld at source, is generally exempt from the duty to file tax returns in Israel in respect of such income, provided such income was not derived from a business conducted in Israel by the taxpayer and the non-resident has no other sources of income in Israel.

Residents of the United States generally will have withholding tax in Israel deducted at source. As discussed below, they may be entitled to a credit or deduction for United States federal income tax purposes in the amount of the taxes withheld, subject to detailed rules contained in United States tax legislation.

United States Federal Income Taxation

General

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. persons holding our ordinary shares and warrants (“U.S. holders”) of purchasing, owning, and disposing of such shares and warrants. For this purpose, a U.S. person is, in each case as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (b) a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation under federal income tax laws created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; (c) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (d) a trust that is subject to the primary supervision of a court over its administration and one or more U.S. persons control all substantial decisions, or a trust that has validly elected to be treated as a domestic trust under applicable Treasury Regulations. This summary does not address any tax consequences to persons other than U.S. persons.

This discussion is a general summary and does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular U.S. holders based on their particular investment or tax circumstances. It does not address any tax consequences to certain types of U.S. holders that are subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions or broker-dealers, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use the mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities, partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal tax purposes, regulated investment companies, real estate investment companies, expatriates, persons liable for alternative minimum tax, persons owning, directly or by attribution, 10 percent or more, by voting power or value, of our ordinary shares, persons whose “functional currency” is not the United States dollar, or persons holding ordinary shares or warrants as part of a hedging, constructive sale or conversion, straddle, or other risk-reducing transaction.

This summary addresses only ordinary shares and warrants that: (a) are held as capital assets; (b) were acquired upon original issuance at their initial offering price.

This summary relates only to U.S. federal income taxes. It does not address any other tax, including but not limited to state, local, or foreign taxes, or any other U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes.

The statements in this summary are based on the current U.S. federal income tax laws as contained in the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations, and relevant judicial decisions and administrative guidance. The U.S. federal tax laws are subject to change, and any such change may materially affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning, or disposing of our ordinary shares or warrants. We cannot assure you that new laws, interpretations of law or court decisions, any of which may take effect retroactively, will not cause any statement in this summary to be inaccurate. There can be no assurance that the positions we take on our tax returns will be accepted by the Internal Revenue Service.

This section is not a substitute for careful tax planning. Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific U.S. federal, state, foreign and other tax consequences to them, in light of their own particular circumstances, of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our ordinary shares and warrants and the effect of potential changes in applicable tax laws.

Dividends

A U.S. holder will be required to take into account as dividends any distributions with respect to our ordinary shares made out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. The dividends received deduction will not be available to a U.S. holder that is taxed as a corporation. With certain exceptions (including but not limited to dividends treated as investment income for purposes of investment interest deduction limitations), qualified dividends received by a non-corporate U.S. holder generally will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to capital gains, if certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, through December 31, 2008, after which the rate applicable to dividends is scheduled to return to the tax rate generally applicable to ordinary income. Dividends will generally be from a non-U.S. source and treated as “passive income” or “financial services income” for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

72

The amount of any dividend paid in Israeli currency will equal its U.S. dollar value, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is received by the U.S. holder, regardless of whether the Israeli currency is converted into U.S. dollars. If the Israeli currency is not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, the U.S. holder will have a basis in the Israeli currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any subsequent gain or loss upon the conversion or other disposition of the Israeli currency will be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be income or loss from U.S. sources.

A U.S. holder will not incur tax on a distribution with respect to our ordinary shares in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits if the distribution does not exceed the adjusted basis of the U.S. holder’s ordinary shares. Instead, the distribution will reduce the adjusted basis of the shares. Any such distribution in excess of both our current and accumulated earnings and profits and the U.S. holder’s adjusted basis will be treated as capital gain, long-term if the U.S. holder has held the shares for more than one year, and generally will be gain or loss from U.S. sources. See “Disposition of Ordinary Shares or Warrants” below for a discussion of capital gains tax rates and limitations on deductions for losses.

Exercise or Lapse of Warrants

Upon the exercise of our warrants, a U.S. holder will not recognize gain or loss and will have a tax basis in the ordinary shares received equal to the U.S. holder’s tax basis in the warrant plus the exercise price of the warrant. The holding period for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of a warrant will begin on the day following the date of exercise and will not include the period during which the U.S. holder held the warrant. If a warrant lapses unexercised, a U.S. holder will recognize a capital loss in an amount equal to its tax basis in the warrant. Such loss will be long-term if the warrant has been held for more than one year. See “Disposition of Ordinary Shares or Warrants” below for a discussion of capital gains tax rates and limitations on deductions for losses. The loss will generally be from U.S. sources, but the loss may be from a non-U.S. source under some circumstances under the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty. U.S. holders should consult their own independent tax advisors regarding the sourcing of any losses due to the lapse of our warrants before exercise.

Disposition of Ordinary Shares or Warrants

In general, a U.S. holder must treat any gain or loss recognized upon a taxable disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants as capital gain or loss, long-term if the U.S. holder has held the shares or warrants for more than one year. In general, a U.S. holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the sum of the fair market value of any property and the amount of cash received in such disposition and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis generally will equal the U.S. holder’s acquisition cost less any return of capital. Long-term capital gain realized by a non-corporate U.S. holder generally will be subject to a reduced maximum rate of 15 percent through December 31, 2008, after which the maximum capital gains rate is scheduled to return to 20 percent. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations, as are losses upon a taxable disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants if the U.S. holder purchases, or enters into a contract or option to purchase, substantially identical stock or securities within 30 days before or after any disposition. Gain or loss from the disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants will generally be from U.S. sources, but such gain or loss may be from a non-U.S. source under some circumstances under the U.S.-Israel Tax Treaty. U.S. holders should consult their own independent tax advisors regarding the sourcing of any gain or loss on the disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants, as well as regarding any foreign currency gain or loss in connection with such a disposition.

Credit for Foreign Taxes Withheld

Payments to U.S. holders as dividends or consideration for ordinary shares or warrants may in some circumstances be subject to Israeli withholding taxes. See “Israeli Taxation” above. Generally, such withholding taxes in lieu of Israeli income taxes imposed on such transactions are creditable against the U.S. holder’s U.S. tax liability, subject to numerous U.S. foreign tax credit limitations, including additional limitations in the case of qualified dividends eligible for the maximum rate accorded to capital gains. A U.S. holder should consult its own independent tax advisor regarding use of the U.S. foreign tax credit and its limitations. A U.S. holder (except an individual who does not itemize deductions) may elect to take a deduction rather than a credit for foreign taxes paid.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

A “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) is defined as any foreign corporation at least 75 percent of whose consolidated gross income for the taxable year is passive income, or at least 50 percent of the value of whose consolidated assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, annuities and the excess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income. We believe that the corporation is not and has not been a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and we expect that it will not become a PFIC. If we were to become a PFIC, then all U.S. holders would be required either: (i) to include in their taxable income certain undistributed amounts of our income if a qualified electing fund election has been made; or (ii) to pay an interest charge together with tax calculated at maximum ordinary income rates on certain “excess distributions” (defined to include gain on the sale of ordinary shares). In addition, if we are a PFIC, individual U.S. holders will not be eligible for the maximum capital gains tax rate on qualified dividends.

73

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

A non-corporate U.S. holder may, under certain circumstances, be subject to information reporting requirements and backup withholding at a rate of 28 percent on payments of dividends, interest, and other reportable payments. A non-corporate U.S. holder should consult its own independent tax advisor regarding the possibility of information reporting and backup withholding on payments in connection with the purchase, ownership, or disposition of our ordinary shares or warrants.

ITEM 11.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Quantitative and Qualitative Information about Market Risk

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from investments without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities in which we may invest may be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates and foreign currency rates against the NIS may cause the value of the investment to fluctuate. For example, if we purchase a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the value of our investment will probably decline. To minimize this risk, we intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including U.S. dollars, NIS bank deposits, money market funds and government and non-government debt securities. In general, money market funds are not subject to market risk because the interest paid on such funds fluctuates with the prevailing interest rate.

74

Our financial market risk includes risks related to international operations and related foreign currencies. We anticipate that sales outside of North America will continue to account for a significant portion of our consolidated revenue in 2006. To date, most of our sales have been valued in dollars. In future periods, we expect our sales to be principally valued in dollars, eliminating foreign currency exchange risk.

We value expenses of some of our international operations, such as Israel and Hong Kong, in each country's local currency and therefore are subject to foreign currency exchange risk. However, through December 31, 2005, we have not experienced any significant negative impact on our operations as a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, although we have incurred a loss of $48,000 in the year ended December 31, 2005 due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. We do not use financial instruments to hedge operating expenses in Israel or Hong Kong that are valued in local currency. We intend to continue to assess the need to utilize financial instruments to hedge currency exposures on an ongoing basis.

We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes, nor do we hedge our foreign currency exposure to offset the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates.

Our exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our credit facility. At December 31, 2005, our financial market risk related to this debt was immaterial. Our general policy is to limit the risk of principal loss and ensure the safety of invested funds by limiting market and credit risk.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Within 90 days prior to the date of this Annual Report, we performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the material financial and non-financial information required to be disclosed on Form 20-F and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on our evaluation, which was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed on Form 20-F and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as and when required. The CEO and CFO have indicated that there have been no significant changes in the internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the above-mentioned evaluation, Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we expect that beginning with our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, we will be required to furnish a report by management on our internal control over financial reporting, which report must also contain a statement that our auditors have issued an attestation report on our management's assessment of such internal controls.

Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of

SuperCom Asia Pacific Limited

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SuperCom Asia Pacific Limited (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF

SUPERCOM LTD.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Supercom Ltd. (the "Company") and it's subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of Directors and management of the Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We did not audit the financial statements of "Supercom Asia Pacific Limited" a subsidiary, whose assets included in the consolidation constituted approximately 5% and 4% of total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively., and whose revenues included in the consolidation constituted approximately 28.5%, 33% and 26% of total consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The financial statements of this subsidiary were audited by other independent auditors, whose report has been furnished to us. Our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in respect of this company, is based solely on the report of the other independent auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of the other independent auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other independent auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their operations, and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Company is also a developer and provider of a wide-range of complementary technologies and solutions for the smartcard market. The Company develops and markets innovative and customizable smartcards, smartcard-related products, proprietary smartcard production technologies and advanced identification or ID technologies, complemented by brand protection and authentication technologies. The Company also sells specially designed kits containing the raw materials necessary to produce cards and smartcards.

The Company sells its products through centralized marketing offices in distinct world regions.

c. In November and December of 2005, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,050 from a private placement to certain investors of 4,919,354 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares at an exerciseprice of $0.60 per share. (See note 12(f))

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US G.A.A.P”)

a. Useof estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

b. Financial statements in U.S. dollars:

Most of the revenues of the Company and its subsidiaries are received in U.S. dollars. In addition, a substantial portion of the costs of the Company and its subsidiaries are incurred in dollars. Therefore, company management believes that the dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar.

Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the dollar are remeasured into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement No. 52 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") "Foreign Currency Translation" (“SFAS No. 52”). All transaction gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the statements of operations as financial income or expenses as appropriate.

c. Principles of consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries (unless the minority shareholders have certain approval or veto rights) in Israel, the United States and Hong-Kong. Material intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated upon consolidation. Material profits from intercompany sales, not yet realized outside the group, were also eliminated

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

d. Cash equivalents:

The Company considers unrestricted short-term highly liquid investments originally purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

e. Restricted cash:

Restricted cash is invested in certificates of deposit, which mature within one year, and is used to secure agreements with a customer or a bank.

f. Short-term deposits:

The Company classifies deposits with maturities of more than three months and less than one year as short-term deposits.

g. Marketable debt securities:

The Company accounts for investments in marketable debt securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115").

Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in marketable debt securities and commercial papers at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date.

As of December 31, 2005, all securities covered by SFAS No. 115 were designated by Company Management as trading securities.

As such, the securities are stated at market value. The changes in market value of these securities are carried to financial income or expense.

Trading gains for the year 2005 amounted approximately to $15 in respect to trading securities held by the Company as of December 31, 2005.

h. Allowance for doubtful accounts:

The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to specific amounts the Company has determined to be doubtful of collection. In determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company considers, among other things, its past experience with such customers and the information available on such customers.

i. Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory write-offs are mainly provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence. Cost is determined as follows:

Raw materials, parts and supplies - using the moving "average cost" method.

Work-in-progress and finished products - on the basis of direct manufacturing costs, with the addition of allocable, indirect manufacturing costs.

j. Investment in an affiliated company and a majority owned subsidiary:

The investment in a company, over which the Company can exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee (generally, entities in which the Company holds 20% to 50% of ownership or voting rights), is presented using the equity method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principle Bulletin No 18 “The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock”.

The investment in a majority-owned company is presented using the equity method of accounting due to substantive participation rights held by the minority, which impacts the Company’s ability to exert control over the subsidiary. (See Note 5).

k. Property and equipment:

Property and equipment (including self construction equipment) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Self-construction equipment costs represent the incremental direct costs that are identifiable with, and related to, the construction and installation of the equipment and that are necessary to get it ready for its intended use. Those costs include amounts paid to outside contractors and payroll-related costs of employees that are engaged in the construction and installation of the equipment.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives, at the following annual rates:

l. Impairment of long lives assets and intangible assets:

The Company's long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS No. 144") whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

m. Accrued severance pay:

The liabilities of the Company for severance pay are calculated pursuant to Israel's Severance Pay Law, based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the balance sheet date. Employees are entitled to one month's salary for each year of employment, or a portion thereof. The Company's liability for all its employees is fully covered by monthly deposits with severance pay funds, insurance policies and by an accrual. The value of these policies is presented as an asset in the Company's balance sheet.

The deposited funds include accrued income up to the balance sheet date. The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to Israel's Severance Pay Law or labor agreements. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrender value of these policies and includes immaterial profits.

Severance expenses for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 amounted to $153, $151 and $ 115, respectively.

n. Intangible assets:

Intangible assets acquired on or after July 1, 2001, are amortized over their useful lives using a method of amortization that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise used up, in accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets.

o. Revenue recognition:

The Company and its subsidiaries generate their revenues from the sale of products, maintenance, training and installation. The sale of products involves the sale of the Smartcard System and raw materials. The Company sells its products through centralized marketing offices in distinct world regions.

Product sales of smartcard systems, contactless smart card Production Line 1000 (SPPL 1000) and raw materials are recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB No. 104"), when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, collectability is probable, and inconsequential or perfunctory performance obligations remain. If the product requires specific customer acceptance, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance occurs or the acceptance provision lapses.

The Company does not provide a right of return to its customers.

Based on past experience, the Company does not provide for warranty costs when revenue is recognized.

The Company applied the provisions of EITF Issue No. 00-21 "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables" for multiple element arrangements entered into after June 15, 2003. EITF Issue No. 00-21 provides guidance on how to account for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. For such arrangements, each element of the contract is accounted as a separate unit when it provides the customer value on a stand-alone basis and there is objective evidence of the fair value of the related unit.

Maintenance and support revenues included in multiple-element arrangements are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the maintenance and support agreement. For these multiple element arrangements, the Company accounts for each unit of the contract (maintenance, support and services) as a separate unit when each unit provides value to the customer on a stand-alone basis and there is objective evidence of the fair value of the stand-alone unit.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

The Company is entitled to royalties upon sales of smartcard systems. Such royalties are recognized when the sales are reported to the Company. (mainly on a monthly basis)

Deferred revenues and customer advances include amounts received from customers for which revenues have not been recognized.

The Company recognizes certain long-term contract revenues, in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production Type Contracts”.

Pursuant to SOP 81-1, revenues from these contracts are recognized under the percentage of completion method. The Company measures the percentage of completion based on output criteria, such as contract milestones or number of units shipped, as stipulated in each contract.

Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made during the period in which such losses are first identified, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract. As of December 31, 2005, no such estimated losses were identified.

The Company believes that the use of the percentage of completion method is appropriate, as the Company has the ability to make reasonably dependable estimates of the extent of progress towards completion, contract revenues and contract costs. In addition, contracts executed include provisions that clearly specify the enforceable rights of the parties to the contract, the consideration to be exchanged and the manner and terms of settlement. In all cases, the Company expects to perform its contractual obligations and the parties are expected to satisfy their obligations under the contract.

In contracts that do not meet all the abovementioned conditions, the Company utilizes zero estimates of profits; equal amounts of revenue and cost are recognized until results can be estimated with sufficientaccuracy.

Revenues and costs recognized pursuant to SOP 81-1 on contracts in progress are subject to management estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The Company derives its revenues mainly from sale of hardware products that include embedded software that Management considers to be incidental. Such revenues are recognized in accordance with SAB No. 104, as mentioned above.

However, in limited circumstances, the Company provides software upgrades in respect of the embedded software of hardware products sold to its customers in the past. Such revenues are recognized when all criteria outlined in Statement of Position No. 97-2 “Software Revenue Recognition” (“SOP No. 97-2) (as amended) are met: when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred (i.e. the services have been provided), no significant obligations under the agreement remain, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable.

p. Shipping and handling costs:

Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are reflected as revenues while the related shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenues. To date, shipping and handling costs have not been material.

q. Research and development costs:

SmartCard systems research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Research and development costs incurred in the process of software production before establishment of technological feasibility, are charged to expenses as incurred. Costs of the production of a product master incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility are capitalized according to the principles set forth in SFAS No. 86 "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed". Based on the Company's product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a detailed program design or a working model.

Capitalized software development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis commencing with general product release by the greater of the amount computed using: (i) the ratio that current gross revenues from sales of the software bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues from sales of that software, or (ii) the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software product (three years).

The Company assesses the recoverability of this intangible asset on a regular basis by determining whether the amortization of the asset over its remaining life can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows from the specific software product sold.

r. Income taxes:

The Company and its subsidiaries account for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". This statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company and its subsidiaries provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.

s. Concentrations of credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash deposits, marketable debt securities and trade receivables. The Company's trade receivables are derived from sales to customers located primarily in Europe (including Eastern Europe), Asia pacific, Africa, the United States and Israel. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial conditions. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to specific debts that the Company has determined to be doubtful of collection.

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash deposits and marketable debt securities are deposited with major banks in Israel, Hong-Kong and the United States. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company's investments are financially sound, and accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments.

The Company's marketable debt securities include investments in securities of Municipals Bounds. Minimal credit risk exists with respect to these marketable debt securities.

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. See note 8(a) regarding bank credit denominated in currencies other than dollars.

t. Basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share:

Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year, plus the dilutive potential stock options outstanding during the year, in accordance with FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".

All outstanding stock options and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted net loss per share since the Company reported losses for the years 2003, 2004 and 2005. The number of outstanding options and warrants were 1,534,514, 5,082,763 and 6,594,600, for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

u. Fair value of financial instruments:

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company and its subsidiaries in determining their fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash deposits, short-term deposits, marketable debt securities current trade receivables, other accounts receivable, trade payables, short-term bank credit and other accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. The fair value for marketable securities is based on quoted market prices.

The carrying amount of the Company's long-term loan approximates its fair value. The fair value was estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using current interest rates for loans or similar terms and maturities.

v. Accounting for stock-based compensation:

The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans using the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by APB 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations. Accordingly, the compensation is measured as the excess of the market price of the underlying stock over the exercise price on the date of grant, if any. Such compensation is amortized over the vesting period.

Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-based Compensation” (“SFAS No 123”), pro forma information regarding net income and income per share is required, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee share options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123.

The fair value of these options is amortized over their vesting period and estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2003, 2004 and 2005: risk-free interest rate of 8.4%, 4.2% and 3.68%, respectively, with a dividend yield of 0% for each year, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's ordinary shares of 1.499, 1.139 and 1.019, respectively, and a weighted-average expected life of the option of five years for each year.

The following table summarizes relevant information as to reported results under the Company's intrinsic value method of accounting for stock awards, with supplemental information as if the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, had been applied:

The Company applied SFAS 123 and Emerging Issue Task Force No. 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or services” (EITF No. 96-18) with respect to options issued to non-employees.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (SFAS 123). Among other items, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of APB 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires companies to recognize in their financial statements, the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the fair value of those awards at the grant date. The effective date of SFAS 123R is the first reporting fiscal year period beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the first quarter 2006 for the Company.

SFAS 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a “modified prospective” method, or a “modified retrospective” method. Under the “modified prospective” method, compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS 123R. Under the “modified retrospective” method, the requirements are the same as under the “modified prospective” method, but it also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS 123.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Cont.)

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 107 (“SAB 107”). In particular, SAB 107 provides supplemental implementation guidance on SFAS 123R, including guidance on valuation methods, classification of compensation expense, inventory capitalization of share-based compensation cost, income statement effects, disclosures and several other issues. The Company will apply the principles of SAB 107 in conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123R

The Company expects that SFAS 123R, will be applied using the modified prospective application transition method, as permitted by the statement. Under this transition method, upon the adoption of SFAS 123R, the new standard will be implemented as from the first quarter of 2006, with no restatement of prior periods.

Considering this transition method, the Company expects that the effect of applying this statement on the Company’s results of operations in 2006 as it relates to existing option plans, would not be materially different from the FAS 123 pro forma effect previously reported.

w. Advertising costs:

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 were approximately $ 58, $ 10 and $ 21, respectively.

x. Comprehensive Income:

The Company has no comprehensive income components other than net income (loss).

y. Reclassifications:

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

z. Recently issued accounting pronouncements:

SFAS 151 “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4”

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). SFAS 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal”. In addition, it requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities.

96

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(Cont.)

As applicable to the Company SFAS 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred after January 1, 2006. The Company believes that FAS 151, when adopted, will not have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

SFAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”

In May 2005, the FASB published SFAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections - a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3” (SFAS 154), SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle.  SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions.

As applicable to the Company, the provisions of FAS 154 are effective as for the year beginning January 1, 2006. The adoption of this Standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

FAS 155 “accounting for certain Hybrid Financial Instruments”

In February 2006, the FASB issued FAS 155, accounting for certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB statements No. 133 and 140. This statement permits fair value measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation.

This statement shall be effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued , or subject to a remeasurement (new basis) after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year, provided that no interim period financial statements have bee issued for the financial year.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of this statement, if any, on the Company’s financial statements or its results of operations.

In April 2004, the Company was informed by the International Commercial Arbitration Court at the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (“Arbitration Court”) that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a statement of claim to declare the Contract No. 10/82, dated April 9, 2002 between SuperCom and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine as void due to defaults in the tender proceedings under which the Ukraine Contract had been awarded to SuperCom. On July 22, 2004, the Company was informed by the law firm representing the Company in the arbitration proceedings that on July 19, 2004, the Arbitration Court issued a negative award declaring the Ukraine Contract as void. The Company strongly believes that the award is wrong due to many defaults that occurred in the arbitration proceedings. On April 27, 2005 the Company challenged the validity of the award in the High Commercial Court of Ukraine. In May 2005 the Company was informed by the Arbitration Court that the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry had filed with the Arbitration Court a new statement of claim for restitution of $1,048, paid to the Company by the Department for Resources Supply of the Ministry. On September 27, 2005, the Company received a negative award by the Arbitration Court. On December 12, 2005 the Company was informed that the Supreme Court of Ukraine had dismissed the Company’s appeal regarding the July 2004 decision.

NOTE 10:- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (Cont.)

Based on the opinion of its legal advisors, the Company strongly believes that such award is wrong, that the claim has no merit and that there have been serious violations of the arbitration proceedings, therefore no provision was set-up in the financial statements in respect to the claim for restitution of $1,048. However, due to the developments described above the Company wrote off inventory in an amount of approximately $287 and took possession of the remaining inventory that was previously delivered to the customer. In 2003, the Company increased the allowance for doubtful accounts in an aggregate amount of $ 2,133 for the debt of the Ukrainian government owes to the Company.

The Company did not have any revenues from this project in 2004 and 2005.

2. On October 30, 2003, SuperCom Slovakia, a subsidiary (66%) of SuperCom Ltd., received an award from the International Arbitral Center of the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber (“IAC”), in the case against the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic which refers to the agreement on delivery of Technology, Cooperation and Services signed on March 17, 1998. Upon the Arbitral Award, the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic was ordered to pay SuperCom Slovakia the amount of SKK 80,000,000 (approximately $2,500 as of December 31, 2005) plus interest accruing from March, 1999. In addition, the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic was ordered to pay the costs of arbitration in the amount of EUR 42,716 (approximately $51 as of December 31, 2005) and SuperCom Slovakia’s legal fees in the amount of EUR 63,611 (approximately $75 as of December 31, 2005). The Company has begun the enforcement procedure of the arbitral award. The Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic filed a claim with the Commercial Court in Vienna, Austria on February 10, 2004, whereby it challenged and requested to set aside the arbitral award. During September 2005 the commercial court of Vienna dismissed the claim of the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic. On October 21, 2005 the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic filed an appeal.

3. On July 14, 2003, Mr. Yaacov Pedhatzur, an Israeli citizen, filed a lawsuit against the Company with the Magistrate Court in Tel Aviv, Israel. The plaintiff claims that the Company owes him certain commissions in respect of transactions between SuperCom and certain third parties On September 29, 2005 the Company reached a settlement agreement with Mr. Yaacov Pedhatzur pursuant to which SuperCom will pay Mr. Pedhatzur the NIS equivalent of $ 129. The settlement agreement has been validated by the court. This amount was recorded in the statement of operations as litigation settlement expenses.

4. On December 16, 1999, Secu-Systems filed a lawsuit with the District Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa jointly and severally against the Company and InkSure Ltd. (a former subsidiary, which became a subsidiary of InkSure Technologies, Inc.) seeking a permanent injunction and damages. The plaintiff asserted in its suit that the printing method applied to certain products that have been developed by InkSure Ltd. constitutes inter alia: (a) the breach of a confidentiality agreement between the plaintiff and the Company; (b) unjust enrichment of the Company and InkSure Ltd; (c) breach of fiduciary duties owed to the plaintiff by the Company and InkSure Ltd., and (d) a tort of misappropriation of trade secrets and damage to plaintiff’s property. Based on such allegations, Secu-Systems asked the court to order the Company and InkSure Ltd. to: (i) cease any activity which involves the plaintiff’s confidential information; (ii) furnish the plaintiff with a certified report detailing all profits derived by the Company and InkSure Ltd. from such activity; (iii) pay the plaintiff an amount equal to all such profits, and (iv) pay the plaintiff additional damages in the amount of NIS 100,000 (approximately $22 as of December 31, 2005). Alternatively, the plaintiff asked the court to declare that the above-mentioned products are jointly owned, in equal shares, by the plaintiff and InkSure Ltd. and that the plaintiff is entitled to 50% of all profits derived therefrom.   Regardingthe developments of this litigation see note 18(b).

NOTE 11:- TAXES ON INCOME

a. Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 ("the law"):

Certain of the Company's production facilities have been granted the status as an "Approved Enterprise", under the law, for three separate investment programs that were approved in July 1992, October 1994 and March 1996.

Since the Company operates more than one approved enterprise and since the Company is not entitled to tax benefits on part of its taxable income that is taxed at the regular corporate tax rate, under the abovementioned law, its effective tax rate will be the result of a weighted average of the various applicable rates and tax exemptions. The computation is made in respect of income derived from each project, on the basis of formulas specified by law and approvals.

Entitlement to the above benefits is contingent upon the Company’s fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the law, regulations published thereunder and the letters of approval for the specific investments in "approved enterprises". In the event of failure to comply with these conditions, the benefits may be canceled and the Company may be required to refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, including interest. As of December 31, 2005, Management believes that the Company is in compliance with all of the aforementioned conditions.

The tax-exempt profits attributable to the Company's "Approved Enterprises" can be distributed to shareholders without subjecting the Company to taxes only upon the complete liquidation of the Company. If these retained tax-exempt profits are distributed in a manner other than as part of the complete liquidation of the Company, they would be taxed at the corporate tax rate applicable to such profits as if the Company had not elected the alternative benefits track (currently 25% for an "Approved Enterprise"). The Company's Board of Directors has determined that such tax-exempt income will not be distributed as dividends.

The period of tax benefits, detailed above, is limited to the earlier of 12 years from the commencement of production, or 14 years from the approval date.

NOTE 11:- TAXES ON INCOME (Cont.)

The law also grants entitlement to claim accelerated depreciation on buildings, machinery and equipment used by the "Approved Enterprise", during the first five tax years.

Should the Company derive income from sources other than an "Approved Enterprise" during the relevant period of benefits, such income will be taxable at the regular corporate tax rate. See Note 11(d).

b. Tax benefits under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation), 1969:

The Company is an "industrial company", as defined by this law and, as such, is entitled to certain tax benefits, mainly accelerated depreciation of machinery and equipment, the right to claim public issuance expenses and amortization of patents and other intangible property rights as a deduction for tax purposes.

c. Measurement of results of operations for tax purposes under the Israeli Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985.

Results of operations for tax purposes are measured in terms of earnings in NIS after adjustments for changes in Israel's Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). As explained in Note 2b, the financial statements are measured in U.S. dollars. The difference between the annual change in Israel's CPI and in the NIS/dollar exchange rate causes a further difference between taxable income and the income before taxes shown in the financial statements. In accordance with paragraph 9(f) of SFAS No. 109, the Company has not provided deferred income taxes on the above difference between the functional currency and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.

d. Reduction in corporate tax rates:

On July 25, 2005 the Israeli Parliament passed an amendment to the Income Tax Ordinance (No. 147) - 2005, gradually reducing the tax rate applicable to the Company (regarding profits not eligible for “approved enterprise” benefits mentioned above) as follows: in 2006 - 31%, in 2007 - 29%, in 2008 - 27%, in 2009 - 26% and in 2010 and thereafter - 25%.

According to a previous amendment to the Income Tax Ordinance (No. 140) 2004, the tax rates were reduced as follows: in 2004 - 35% and in 2005 - 34%.

The effect of the amendment on the deferred income taxes balances was not material.

e. Non-Israeli subsidiaries:

Non-Israeli subsidiaries are taxed according to the tax laws in their country of residence.

f. Deferred income taxes:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the deferred tax assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are as follows:

	December 31,
Tax Benefits:	2004			2005
Operating loss carryforward	$	3,648		$	4,626
Reserves and allowances		798			805
Net deferred tax asset before valuation allowance		4,446			5,431
Valuation allowance		(4,446	)		(5,431	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	-		$	-
Deferred income taxes consist of the following:

Valuation allowance		(4,069	)		(4,643	)
Foreign		377			788
Valuation allowance		(377	)		(788	)
	$	-		$	-

As of December 31, 2005 the Company and its subsidiaries have provided valuation allowances of $ 5,431 in respect of deferred tax assets resulting from tax loss carryforwards and other temporary differences. Management currently believes that since the Company and its subsidiaries have a history of losses, the deferred tax assets are not considered more likely than not to be realized in the foreseeable future.

g. Net operating loss carryforwards, capital loss and loss on marketable securities:

SuperCom Ltd. has accumulated losses for tax purposes as of December 31, 2005, in an amount of approximately $ 17,500, which may be carried forward and offset against taxable income in the future for an indefinite period. SuperComLtd. also has a capital loss of approximately $ 4,000 which can be carried forward and offset against capital gains and a loss on marketable securities in an amount of $ 300, which may be carried forward and offset against gains on marketable securities for an indefinite period.

NOTE 11:- TAXES ON INCOME (Cont.)

SuperCom's subsidiaries in the United States and Hong Kong have estimated total available carryforward tax losses of $ 1,831 and $ 801, respectively. In Hong-Kong Tax losses are available to offset against future taxable income, if any, for an indefinite period. In the United States tax losses can be carried forward for 20 years.

Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the "change in ownership" provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.

h. SuperCom Ltd has received final assessment until the year ended December 31, 2001.

i. Loss before taxes on income consists of the following:

	Year ended December 31,

c. Shareholders' rights:

The ordinary shares confer upon the holders the right to receive notice to participate and vote in the general meetings of the Company, and the right to receive dividends, if declared.

d. Stock options:

1. On February 14, 1999, the Board of Directors adopted, and Company’s shareholders subsequently approved, the 1999 Employee Stock Option Plan Option Plan, which was amended and restated in March 2002 (the “1999 Option Plan”). The Company no longer uses the 1999 Option Plan to issue stock options. In 2003, the Company adopted a new stock option plan under which the Company now issue stock options (the “Option Plan”). The Option Plan is intended to provide incentives to the Company employees, officers, directors and/or consultants by providing them with the opportunity to purchase our ordinary shares. Under the Option Plan, options to purchase an aggregate of up to the number of the Company’s authorized ordinary shares (40,000,000) may, from time to time, be awarded to any employee, officer, director and/or consultant. The Option Plan is, subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, administered by the Remuneration Committee, and is designed: (i) to comply with Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance or any provision which may amend or replace it and rules promulgated thereunder and to enable the Company and grantees thereunder to benefit from Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance and the Commissioner’s Rules; and (ii) to enable the Company to grant options and issue shares outside the context of Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance. Options become exercisable ratably over a period of three to five years, commencing with the date of grant. The options generally expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant.

f. In November and December of 2005, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,050 from a private placement to certain investors of 4,919,354 ordinary shares (out of which 887,096 shares were issued after balance sheet date) and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The private placement was made to accredited investors without general solicitation or marketing pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to foreign private investors in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. In connection with the private placement, the Company placement agent received a cash fee of $150 and the Company’s placement advisors received five-year warrants to purchase 49,677 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The investors in this private placement were granted the right, for one year following the closing of the private placement and subject to certain limitations, to participate in future issuances of the Company’s capital stock or securities (a “Subsequent Financing”) up to an amount which would permit each investor to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Subsequent Financing (after giving effect to such Subsequent Financing). Additionally, all of the warrants offered in this private placement contain an anti-dilution mechanism whereby, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price of the warrants is automatically reduced to the lowest price per share at which the ordinary shares were issued or sold if the Company issues or sells any ordinary shares at a price per share less than the exercise price of the warrants (a “Trigger Issuance”). However, there is a cap on the number of ordinary shares that may be purchased by any warrant holder pursuant to this anti-dilution mechanism. Each warrant holder may purchase only such number of ordinary shares which would permit such holder to maintain its fully diluted percentage equity ownership at the same level existing prior to the Trigger Issuance (after giving effect to such Trigger Issuance). The warrants are callable, subject to certain limitations, at the option of the Company if the closing bid price per ordinary share of the Company's ordinary shares equals or exceeds $1.20 for 20 trading days during the term of the warrants. The Company may however only call, in any 3-month period, the lesser of (i) 20% of the aggregate amount of the warrants initially issued to a warrant holder, or (ii) the total number of warrants then held by such holder.

NOTE 17:- SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

a. In October 2004, the Company announced that the United States Government Printing Office (GPO) has informed that the Company’s proposal as a prime contractor for the integration of smart card technology in the US new electronic passports has been accepted for award.  In addition, SuperCom’s proposal as a sub-contractor with a leading American system integrator corporation has also been accepted for award in this project.

On May 5, 2005, the Company announced that the GPO issued a Notice of Termination for Convenience involving the Company’s participation in the three-phase testing of technology for a new electronic passport project. While an earlier termination notice was withdrawn after discussions with the GPO, the Company’s attempts to persuade the GPO to withdraw the current termination notice have been unsuccessful.  The notice terminates SuperCom’s contract awards for the Electronic Passport Program. While the termination notice does not specify the reason for its issuance, the Company understands from its discussions with the GPO that it is based on unresolved security concerns and not related to the Company’s technological solution or its cost proposal.

NOTE 17:- SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

b. On March 24, 2005, SuperCom Ltd entered into a termination agreement with Intercomsoft Limited with respect to the Sales Agreement between the parties (relating to the Moldova National Documentation Project), from which the Company has derived revenues of $1,184, $1,610 and $559 during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Under the terms of the termination agreement, SuperCom will supply equipment, consumables, and software directly to the Moldovan government. During the year 2005 the Company generated $1,868 in revenues from the Moldovan government. As a result of the termination, the Company does not anticipate any significant changes in its revenues.

c. On April 18, 2005 the Company signed a contract to lease new offices in Kadima. See Note 11a.

d. In November and December of 2005, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,050 from a private placement to certain investors of 4,919,354 ordinary shares and five-year warrants to purchase 1,721,772 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. See Note 12

NOTE 18:- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

a. On May 1, 2006, Evilia Investments Ltd. ("Evilia") filed with the Magistrate's Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa a monetary lawsuit against InkSure Ltd. (a former subsidiary, which became a subsidiary of InkSure Technologies, Inc., ("InkSure")) and against the Company, jointly and severally, for payment of NIS 2,366,868 (as of June 15, 2006, approximately $530) plus interest, due as rent payments and related management fees for a certain real estate property in Rehovot, leased to InkSure under a lease agreement entered into between Evilia and InkSure on October 10, 2000, as amended on May 25, 2001 (the "Agreement"), to which SuperCom is a guarantor.

A motion for leave to defend the lawsuit has been filed with the Court by both InkSure and the Company on June 15, 2006.

Based upon the facts provided by InkSure, the building was not completed and was not ready for use, and hence, InkSure submitted to Evilia a notice of termination of the Agreement.

Assuming that the facts presented by InkSure in its motion for leave to defend the lawsuit are adopted as true by the Magistrate's Court, the Company tend to believe that the chances the claim against InkSure and hence (since the guarantee signed by the Company will no longer be valid if the termination of the Agreement by InkSure is found to be justified by the court), also against the Company, will be dismissed are reasonably good.

In addition, based on the Company’s legal consultant advisor, the Company believes that the Company’s liability under the Agreement is limited as a guarantor to InkSure's obligation, if and to the extent it is not paid by InkSure.

Accordingly, even if the court issues a final judgment according to which InkSure is required to pay the amount claimed or any part thereof, the Company’s obligation to pay any amount to Evilia is subject to no payment of the amounts due from InkSure, and limited only to such amounts.

NOTE 18:- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Cont.)

Since Inksure appears to be financially capable of paying any amounts due on the claim, if so determined by the court, the Company tend to believe that its exposure is limited. Therefore, no reserve has been setup in the financial statement in respect of this litigation.

b. As disclosed in note 10(c)(4), on December 16, 1999, Secu-Systems Ltd. ("Secu-systems" or the "Plaintiff") filed a lawsuit with the District Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa jointly and severally against the Company and InkSure seeking a permanent injunction and damages. The Plaintiff asserted in its suit that the printing method applied to certain products that have been developed by InkSure constitutes inter alia: (a) a breach of a confidentiality agreement between the Plaintiff and the Company; (b) unjust enrichment of the Companyand InkSure; (c) a breach of fiduciary duties owed to the Plaintiff by the Company and InkSure, and (d) a tort of misappropriation of trade secrets and damage to the Plaintiff's property. Based on such allegations, Secu-Systems asked the court to order the Company and InkSure to: (i) cease any activity which involves the Plaintiff's confidential information; (ii) furnish the Plaintiff with a certified report detailing all profits derived by the Company and InkSure from such activity; (iii) pay the Plaintiff an amount equal to all such profits, and (iv) pay the Plaintiff additional damages in the amount of NIS 100,000 (approximately $22 as of December 31, 2005). Alternatively, the Plaintiff asked the court to declare that the above-mentioned products are jointly owned, in equal shares, by the Plaintiff and InkSure and that the Plaintiff is entitled to 50% of all profits derived therefrom.

On March 15, 2006, the Court gave its ruling as follows:

1. The claim for a breach of contract was denied.  

2. The claim for misappropriation of trade secret was accepted, but the court states explicitly that there is no room for ordered InkSure and the Comany to restitute profits of breach of contract and that there is also no room for granting a remedy which orders the restitution of profits due to the causes of actions of misappropriation of trade secret or unjust enrichment.  

3. Ordered InkSure and the Comany to cease all activity which involves the use of the confidential knowledge and/or the confidential information.  

4. To provide to the Plaintiff, within 60 days, a report certified by an accountant that sets forth in full the income and/or benefit that has been received by InkSure and the Company as a result of the infringing activity until the date of the judgment.  

5. To pay (jointly and severally) to the Plaintiff a compensation in the sum of NIS 100,000 (bearing interest and linked to the consumer price index (CPI) from the date of the judgment), legal expenses (bearing interest and linked to the CPI from the dates they were incurred until their actual payment) as well as attorney's fees in the sum of NIS 30,000 plus VAT (bearing interest and linked to the CPI from the date of the judgment).

Secu-Systems has recently filed an appeal on the ruling above. At this point, the Company cannot estimate the odds of success of the appeal. The Company has the right to file a counter appeal until July 15, 2006.

Exhibit 11.1

SUPERCOM LTD.

corporate CODE OF CONDUCT and ethics

This Corporate Code of Conduct and Ethics, referred to as the “Code,” is intended to provide our associates, as defined below, with a clear understanding of the principles of business conduct and ethics that are expected of them and to ensure:

· the ethical handling of conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

· full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports required to be filed by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by the company; and

· compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.

The standards set forth in the Code apply to us all. Every associate of the company has to comply with the Code as a condition of his or her relationship with the company. The term “associate” means every full and part-time employee of the company and its subsidiaries, all members of the company’s senior management, including the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and every member of the company’s Board of Directors, even if such member is not employed by the company.

It is our responsibility to conduct ourselves in an ethical business manner and also to ensure that others do the same. If any one of us violates these standards, he or she can expect a disciplinary response, up to and including termination of any employment or other relationship with the company, and possibly other legal action. If any breach of the Code is known to you, you are encouraged to report it to the Corporate Compliance Officer. By doing so, we ensure that the good faith efforts of all of us to comply with the Code are not undermined.

The Chief Financial Officer is designated by the Board and can be nominated and changed with a Board resolution. The Board has designated the Chief Financial Officer the Corporate Compliance Officer.

The standards set forth in this Code are guidelines that should govern our conduct at all times. If you are confronted with situations not covered by this Code, or have questions regarding the matters that are addressed in the Code, you are urged to consult with the Corporate Compliance Officer.

The provisions of the Code regarding the actions the company will take are guidelines which the company intends to follow. There may be circumstances, however, that in the company’s judgment require different measures or actions and in such cases it may act accordingly while still attempting to fulfill the principles underlying this Code

I CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Associates should avoid any situation that may involve, or even appear to involve, a conflict between their personal interests and the interests of the company. In dealings with current or potential customers, suppliers, contractors, and competitors, each associate should act in the best interests of the company to the exclusion of personal advantage. Associates and their immediate family members are prohibited from any of the following activities which could represent an actual or perceived conflict of interest:

· Having a significant financial interest in, or obligation to any outside enterprise which does or seeks to do business with the company or which is an actual or potential competitor of the company.

· Serving as a director, officer or in any other management or consulting capacity for any actual or potential competitor of the company or engaging in activities that are directly competitive with those in which the company is engaged.

· Conducting a significant amount of business on the company’s behalf with an outside enterprise which does or seeks to do business with the company if an immediate family member of the associate is a principal, officer or employee of such enterprise.

· Using any company property or information or his or her position at the company for his or her personal gain or diverting a business opportunity from the company for personal benefit.

· Receiving any loan or advance from the company, or be the beneficiary of a guarantee by the company of a loan or advance from a third party, except for customary advances or corporate credit in the ordinary course of business or approved by the Audit Committee and the Corporate Compliance Officer.

· In addition, the Audit Committee of the Board will review and approve all related-party transactions, as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission, any exchange or market upon which the Company’s securities are listed or quoted, or any other regulatory body to which the company is subject.

II FULL AND FAIR DISCLOSURE

Because the integrity of the company’s external reports to shareholders and authorities such as the Securities and Exchange Commission depends on the integrity of the company’s internal reports and record-keeping, all associates must adhere to the highest standards of care with respect to our internal records and reporting. The company is committed to full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in the periodic reports required to be filed by it with authorities such as the Securities and Exchange Commission, and it expects each associate to work diligently towards that goal.

A Accurate Records and Reporting

Under law, the company is required to keep books, records and accounts that accurately and fairly reflect all transactions, dispositions of assets and other events that are the subject of specific regulatory record keeping requirements, including generally accepted accounting principles and other applicable rules, regulations and criteria for preparing financial statements and for preparing periodic reports filed with authorities such as the Securities and Exchange Commission. All company reports, accounting records, sales reports, expense accounts, invoices, purchase orders, and other documents must accurately and clearly represent the relevant facts and the true nature of transactions. Reports and other documents should state all material facts of a transaction and not omit any information that would be relevant in interpreting such report or document. Under no circumstance may there be any unrecorded liability or fund of the company, regardless of the purposes for which the liability or fund may have been intended, or any improper or inaccurate entry knowingly made on the books or records of the company. No payment on behalf of the company may be approved or made with the intention, understanding or awareness that any part of the payment is to be used for any purpose other than that described by the documentation supporting the payment. In addition, intentional accounting misclassifications (e.g., expense versus capital) and improper acceleration or deferral of expenses or revenues are unacceptable reporting practices that are expressly prohibited.

The company has developed and maintains a system of internal controls to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization, are properly recorded and posted, and are in compliance with regulatory requirements. The system of internal controls within the company includes written policies and procedures, budgetary controls, supervisory review and monitoring, and various other checks and balances, and safeguards such as password protection to access certain computer systems. The company has also developed and maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that all of the information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Associates are expected to be familiar with, and to adhere strictly to, these internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures.

B Document Retention

Applicable laws and regulations require the proper retention of many categories of records and documents that are commonly maintained by companies. In consideration of those legal requirements and the company’s business needs, all associates must maintain records in accordance with the legal requirements.

In addition, any record, in paper or electronic format, relevant to a threatened, anticipated or actual internal or external inquiry, investigation, matter or lawsuit may not be discarded, concealed, falsified, altered, or otherwise made unavailable, once an associate has become aware of the existence of such threatened, anticipated or actual internal or external inquiry, investigation, matter or lawsuit. Associates must handle such records in accordance with the legal requirements.

When in doubt regarding retention of any record, an associate must not discard or alter the record in question and should seek guidance from the Corporate Compliance Officer.

III FAIR DEALING WITH CUSTOMERS, SUPPLIERS, COMPETITORS, AND ASSOCIATES

The company does not seek to gain any advantage through the improper use of favors or other inducements. Good judgment and moderation must be exercised to avoid misinterpretation and adverse effect on the reputation of the company or its associates. Offering, giving, soliciting or receiving any form of bribe to or from an employee of a customer or supplier to influence that employee’s conduct is strictly prohibited.

A. Giving Gifts

Cash or cash-equivalent gifts must not be given by an associate to any person or enterprise. Gifts, favors and entertainment may be given to non-governmental employees if what is given:

· is consistent with customary business practice;

· is not excessive in value and cannot be construed as a bribe or pay-off;

· is not in violation of applicable law or ethical standards; and

· will not embarrass the company or the associate if publicly disclosed.

See also subsection E below for considerations relating to gifts to foreign officials and Section IV. B below for considerations relating to gifts to government employees.

B. Receiving Gifts

Gifts, favors, entertainment or other inducements may not be accepted by associates or members of their immediate families from any person or organization that does or seeks to do business with, or is a competitor of, the company, except as common courtesies usually associated with customary business practices. If the gift is of more than token value, the Corporate Compliance Officer must approve its acceptance. An especially strict standard applies when suppliers are involved. If a gift unduly influences or makes an associate feel obligated to “pay back” the other party with business, receipt of the gift is unacceptable. It is never acceptable to accept a gift in cash or cash equivalent.

C. Unfair Competition

Applicable laws and regulations dictate what can and what cannot be done in a competitive environment. The following practices can lead to liability for “unfair competition” and should be avoided. They are violations of the Code.

Disparagement of Competitors. It is not illegal to point out weaknesses in a competitor’s service, product or operation; however, associates may not spread false rumors about competitors or make misrepresentations about their businesses. For example, an associate may not pass on anecdotal or unverified stories about a competitor’s products or services as the absolute truth (e.g., the statement that “our competitors’ diagnostic testing procedures have poor quality control”).

Disrupting a Competitor’s Business. This includes bribing a competitor’s employees, posing as prospective customers or using deceptive practices such as enticing away employees in order to obtain secrets or destroy a competitor’s organization. For example, it is not a valid form of “market research” to visit a competitor’s place of business posing as a customer.

Misrepresentations of Price and Product. Lies or misrepresentations about the nature, quality or character of the company’s services and products are both illegal and contrary to company policy. An associate may only describe our services and products based on their documented specifications, not based on anecdote or his or her belief that our specifications are too conservative.

D. Antitrust Concerns

The company is subject to antitrust laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where it does business that are intended to ensure that competition is the primary regulator of business activity. These laws and regulations prohibit many kinds of formal or informal understandings, agreements, and plans which involve prices, territories, market share or customers to be served. As a result, every corporate decision that involves customers, competitors, and business planning with respect to output, sales and pricing raises antitrust issues. Compliance with applicable antitrust laws is in the public interest, in the interest of the business community at large, and in our company’s interest.

Failing to recognize antitrust risk is costly. Antitrust litigation can be very expensive and time-consuming. Moreover, violations of the antitrust laws can, among other things, subject you and the company to the imposition of injunctions, treble damages, and heavy fines. Criminal penalties may also be imposed, and individual employees can receive heavy fines or even be imprisoned. For this reason, antitrust compliance should be taken seriously at all levels within the company.

E. Unfair Practices in International Business

Applicable laws and regulations prohibit associates from making certain gifts to foreign officials. “Foreign officials” may include not only persons acting in an official capacity on behalf of a foreign government, agency, department or instrumentality, but also representatives of international organizations, foreign political parties and candidates for foreign public office. A gift may be prohibited if it is made for the purpose of:

· Influencing any act or decision of a foreign official in his official capacity;

· Inducing a foreign official to do or omit to do any act in violation of his lawful duty;

· Inducing a foreign official to use his position to affect any decision of the government; or

· Inducing a foreign official to secure any improper advantage.

A gift is still prohibited even when paid through an intermediary. Any associate who has any questions as to whether a particular gift might be prohibited, please contact the Corporate Compliance Officer.

IV. GOVERNMENT RELATIONS

Associates must adhere to the highest standards of ethical conduct in all relationships with government employees and must not improperly attempt to influence the actions of any public official.

A. Government Procurement

Many national and local governments have adopted comprehensive laws and regulations governing their purchases of products from private contractors. These laws and regulations are intended to assure that governmental entities receive pricing, terms, and conditions equivalent to those granted to the company’s most favored commercial customers and that there is full and open competition in contracting. When selling products or services to government procurement agencies, the company is accountable for complying with all applicable procurement laws, regulations, and requirements. Certifications to, and contracts with, government agencies are to be signed by a company associate authorized by the Managing Board to sign such documents, based upon knowledge that all requirements have been fully satisfied.

B. Payments to Officials

Payments or gifts shall not be made directly or indirectly to any government official or associate if the gift or payment is illegal under the laws of the country having jurisdiction over the transaction, or if it is for the purpose of influencing or inducing the recipient to do, or omit to do, any act in violation of his or her lawful duty. Under no circumstances should gifts be given to employees of the United States Government.

C. Political Contributions

Company funds, property or services may not be contributed to any political party or committee, or to any candidate for or holder of any office of any government. This policy does not preclude, where lawful, company expenditures to support or oppose public referendum or separate ballot issues, or, where lawful and when reviewed and approved in advance by the Corporate Compliance Officer, the formation and operation of a political action committee.

V. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

A. Insider Trading Policy

The company expressly forbids any associate from trading on material non-public information or communicating material non-public information to others in violation of the law. This conduct is frequently referred to as “insider trading.” This policy applies to every associate of the company and extends to activities both within and outside their duties to the company, including trading for a personal account. An associate may also become a temporary insider of another company with which our company has a contractual relationship, to which it has made a loan, to which it provides advice or for which it performs other services.

Trading on inside information is not a basis for liability unless the information is material. This is information that a reasonable investor would consider important in making his or her investment decisions, or information that is likely to have a significant effect on the price of a company’s securities.

Information is non-public until it has been effectively communicated to the marketplace. Tangible evidence of such dissemination is the best indication that the information is public. For example, information found in a report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or appearing in a national newspaper would be considered public. Each associate should be familiar with and abide by the company’s Insider Trading Policy. A copy of this policy is available from the Human Resources Department or on the Company’s intranet site.

B. Equal Employment Opportunity

The company makes employment-related decisions without regard to a person’s race, color, religious creed, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry, present or past history of mental disorder, mental retardation, learning disability or physical disability, including, but not limited to, blindness and genetic predisposition, or any other factor unrelated to a person’s ability to perform the person’s job. “Employment decisions” generally mean decisions relating to hiring, recruiting, training, promotions and compensation, but the term may encompass other employment actions as well. The company encourages its associates to bring any problem, complaint or concern regarding any alleged employment discrimination to the attention of the Human Resources Department. Associates who have concerns regarding conduct they believe is discriminatory should also feel free to make any such reports to the Corporate Compliance Officer.

C. Sexual Harassment Policy

The company is committed to maintaining a collegial work environment in which all individuals are treated with respect and dignity and which is free of sexual harassment. In keeping with this commitment, the company will not tolerate sexual harassment of associates by anyone, including any supervisor, co-worker, vendor, client or customer, whether in the workplace, at assignments outside the workplace, at company-sponsored social functions or elsewhere. Each associate should contact the Human Resources Department if he requires further information.

D. Health, Safety & Environment Laws

Health, safety, and environmental responsibilities are fundamental to the company’s values. Associates are responsible for ensuring that the company complies with all provisions of the health, safety, and environmental laws of the United States and of other countries where the company does business. The penalties that can be imposed against the company and its associates for failure to comply with health, safety, and environmental laws can be substantial, and include imprisonment and fines.

VI. REPORTING VIOLATIONS UNDER THE CODE: NON-RETALIATION POLICY

Any associate of the company having any information or knowledge regarding the existence of any violation or suspected violation of the Code may report the violation or suspected violation to the Corporate Compliance Officer. The Company will endeavor to keep reports confidential to the fullest extent practicable under the circumstances.

Any associate who reports a suspected violation under the Code by the company, or its agents acting on behalf of the company, to the Corporate Compliance Officer, may not be fired, demoted, reprimanded or otherwise harmed for, or because of, the reporting of the suspected violation, regardless of whether the suspected violation involves the associate, the associate’s supervisor or senior management of the company.

In addition, any associate who reports a suspected violation under the Code which the associate reasonably believes constitutes a violation of a federal statute by the company, or its agents acting on behalf of the company, to a federal regulatory or law enforcement agency, may not be reprimanded, discharged, demoted, suspended, threatened, harassed or in any manner discriminated against in the terms and conditions of the associate’s employment for, or because of, the reporting of the suspected violation, regardless of whether the suspected violation involves the associate, the associate’s supervisor or senior management of the company.

VII. QUESTIONS UNDER THE CODE AND WAIVER PROCEDURES

Associates are encouraged to consult with the Corporate Compliance Officer about any uncertainty or questions they may have under the Code. If any situation should arise where a course of action would likely result in a violation of the Code but for which the associate thinks that a valid reason for the course of action exists, the associate should contact the Corporate Compliance Officer to obtain a waiver prior to the time the action is taken. No waivers will be granted after the fact for actions already taken. Except as noted below, the Corporate Compliance Officer will review all the facts surrounding the proposed course of action and will determine whether a waiver from any policy in the Code should be granted.

Waiver Procedures for Executive Officers and Directors. Waiver requests by an executive officer or member of the Board shall be referred by the Corporate Compliance Officer, with his or her recommendation, to the Board or a committee thereof for consideration. If either (i) a majority of the independent directors on the Board, or (ii) a committee comprised solely of independent directors agrees that the waiver should be granted, it will be granted. The company will disclose the nature and reasons for the waiver on its next Form 20-F to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or otherwise as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the Board denies the request for a waiver, the waiver will not be granted and the associate may not pursue the intended course of action.

It is the company’s policy only to grant waivers from the Code in limited and compelling circumstances.
