                    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2007
          (dollars in thousands, except share data and per share data)

NOTE 1 - GENERAL

     A.   BASIS FOR PRESENTATION

          (1)  The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements
               as of June 30, 2007 and for the six months and three months then
               ended ("interim financial statements") of Tower Semiconductor
               Ltd. and subsidiary ("the Company") should be read in conjunction
               with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company
               as of December 31, 2006 and for the year then ended, including
               the notes thereto. In the opinion of management, the interim
               financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair
               presentation of the financial position and results of operations
               as of the date and for the interim periods presented. The results
               of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
               indicative of the results to be expected on a full-year basis.

          (2)  The interim financial statements have been prepared in conformity
               with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in Israel
               ("Israeli GAAP"). The interim financial statements differ in
               certain respects from GAAP in the United States of America ("U.S.
               GAAP"), as indicated in Note 4. The accounting principles applied
               in the preparation of these interim financial statements are
               consistent with those principles applied in the preparation of
               the most recent annual audited financial statements, except for
               the accounting principles detailed in paragraph 3 below.

                    FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS"

                    In July 2006, the Israeli Accounting Standards Board
                    published Accounting Standard No. 29 - "Adoption of
                    International Financial Reporting Standards" - IFRS ("the
                    Standard"). According to the Standard, an entity subject to
                    the Israeli Securities Law and authoritative regulations
                    thereunder (including dual listed companies), excluding
                    foreign corporations, that do not prepare their financial
                    statements in accordance with Israeli GAAP, as defined by
                    the Israeli Securities Law will be required to prepare
                    financial statements in accordance with the IFRS and related
                    interpretations published by the International Accounting
                    Standards Board, for the reporting periods commencing
                    January 1, 2008, including interim periods.

                    FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS" (CONT.)

                    An entity adopting IFRS as of January 1, 2008 and electing
                    to report comparative figures in accordance with the IFRS
                    for only 2007, will be required, commencing in 2008, to
                    prepare opening balance-sheet amounts as of January 1, 2007
                    based on the IFRS. Reporting in accordance with the IFRS
                    will be carried out based on the provisions of IFRS No. 1,
                    "First-time Adoption of IFRS Standards", which establishes
                    guidance on implementing and transitioning from financial
                    reporting based on domestic national accounting standards to
                    reporting in accordance with IFRS. IFRS No. 1 supersedes the
                    transitional provisions established in other IFRSs
                    (including those established in former domestic national
                    accounting standards), stating that all IFRSs should be
                    adopted retroactively for the opening balance-sheet amounts.
                    Nevertheless, IFRS No. 1 grants exemptions on certain issues
                    by allowing the alternative of not applying the retroactive
                    application in respect thereof.

                    The Company is in the process of examining the effect of the
                    transition to IFRS on the Company's financial position and
                    results of operations.

               B.   ACCOUNTING STANDARD NO. 26 "INVENTORY"

                    In August 2006 the Israeli Accounting Standards Board
                    published Accounting Standard No. 26 - "Inventory" ("the
                    Standard"), which outlines the accounting treatment for
                    inventory. The Standard applies to all types of inventory,
                    other than buildings earmarked for sale and addressed by
                    Accounting Standard No.2 ("Construction of Buildings for
                    Sale"), inventory of work in progress stemming from
                    performance contracts, addressed by Accounting Standard No.4
                    ("Work Based on Performance Contract"), financial
                    instruments and biological assets relating to agricultural
                    activity and agricultural production during harvest.

                    The Standard applies to financial statements covering
                    periods beginning January 1, 2007 and onwards and should be
                    implemented retroactively. The Standard did not affect the
                    Company's financial position, results of operations and cash
                    flows.

               C.   ACCOUNTING STANDARD NO. 27 "FIXED ASSETS"

                    In September 2006 the Israeli Accounting Standards Board
                    published Accounting Standard No. 27 ("the Standard"), which
                    establishes the accounting treatment for fixed assets,
                    including recognition of assets, determination of their book
                    value, related depreciation, losses from impairment as well
                    as the disclosure required in the financial statements. The
                    Standard states that a fixed-asset item will be measured at
                    the initial recognition date at cost. The cost should also
                    include the initial estimate of costs required to dismantle
                    and remove the item.

                    Following the initial recognition, the Standard permits the
                    entity to implement in its accounting policy the measurement
                    of the fixed assets by the cost method or by revaluation so
                    long as this policy is implemented in regard to all the
                    items in that group.

                    Under the cost method, an item will be presented at cost
                    less accumulated depreciation net book value, less
                    accumulated impairment losses.

                    Under the revaluation method, an item whose fair value can
                    be measured reliably will be presented at its estimated
                    amount, which equals its fair value at the revaluation date,
                    net of depreciation accumulated subsequently and less
                    accumulated impairment losses. A resulting increase in an
                    asset's value due to the revaluation should be allocated
                    directly to shareholders' equity ("revaluation reserve").

                    The Standard applies to financial statements covering
                    periods beginning January 1, 2007 and onwards and is
                    implemented retroactively. The Standard did not affect the
                    Company's financial position or results of operations,
                    except for reclassification in the balance sheet and cash
                    flows report of spare parts from inventory to fixed assets.

                    In April 2007 the Israeli Accounting Standard Board
                    published Standard No. 28 that amends Standard No. 27 to
                    allow, at transition, the exemptions allowed under IFRS 1
                    regarding fixed assets.

                    BETWEEN AN ENTITY AND A CONTROLLING PARTY"

                    In December 2006 the Israeli Accounting Standards Board
                    published Accounting Standard No. 23, "Accounting for
                    Transactions between an Entity and a controlling party"
                    ("the Standard"). The Standard applies to entities subject
                    to the Israeli Securities Law-1968. The Standard establishes
                    the requirements for accounting for transactions between an
                    entity and its controlling party which involve the
                    disposition of an asset, the taking on of a liability,
                    reimbursement or debt concession, and the receiving of
                    loans. The Standard does not apply to business combinations
                    under common control. The Standard stipulates that
                    transactions between an entity and a controlling party will
                    be measured based on fair value; transactions which in
                    nature are owner investments should be reported directly in
                    equity and not be recognized in the controlled entity's
                    profit and loss; the differences between the consideration
                    set in transactions between an entity and a controlling
                    party and their fair value will be allocated directly to
                    equity; and current and deferred taxes pertaining to the
                    items allocated to equity due to transactions with
                    controlling parties will be allocated directly to equity as
                    well.

                    The Standard applies to transactions between an entity and a
                    controlling party taking place subsequent to January 1, 2007
                    and for loans granted from or given to a controlling party
                    prior to the Standard's coming into effect, starting on the
                    Standard's effective date. The Standard did not affect the
                    Company's financial position, results of operations and cash
                    flows.

               E.   ACCOUNTING STANDARD NO. 30 - "INTANGIBLE ASSETS"

                    In March 2007, the Israeli Accounting Standards Board
                    published Accounting Standard No. 30, "Intangible Assets"
                    ("the Standard"), which sets the accounting treatment for
                    intangible assets that are not covered by any other
                    standard, as well as the disclosure requirements in the
                    financial statements for the entity's intangible assets.

               E.   ACCOUNTING STANDARD NO. 30 - "INTANGIBLE ASSETS" (CONT.)

                    According to the Standard:

                    An intangible asset shall be measured initially at cost.

                    Expenditures arising from research (or from the research
                    phase of an internal project) shall not be recognized as an
                    asset and should be expensed when incurred. An intangible
                    asset arising from development (or from the development
                    phase of an internal project) shall be recognized if, and
                    only if, the criteria for recognition as an intangible asset
                    in the Standard are met. Expenditure on an intangible item
                    that was not recognized initially, shall not be recognized
                    as part of the cost of an intangible asset at a later date.

                    After initial recognition, an entity may choose to measure
                    an intangible asset at its cost less any accumulated
                    amortization and any accumulated impairment losses, or for
                    an intangible asset that has an active market, as defined in
                    the Standard, the intangible asset may be carried at a
                    revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of the
                    revaluation less any subsequent accumulated amortization and
                    any subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An entity
                    shall assess whether the useful life of an intangible asset
                    is finite or indefinite. The amortization of an intangible
                    asset with a finite useful life shall be over its useful
                    life using a systematic basis. An intangible asset with an
                    indefinite useful life shall not be amortized. Instead, an
                    entity is required to test an intangible asset with an
                    indefinite useful life for impairment by comparing its
                    recoverable amount with its carrying amount annually, or
                    whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset
                    may be impaired.

                    This Standard shall apply to financial statements for annual
                    periods beginning on or after January 1, 2007. The Standard

NOTE 1 - GENERAL (CONT.)

     A.   BASIS FOR PRESENTATION (CONT.)

          (5)  During the second quarter of 2007, the Company reassessed the
               estimated useful lives of its machinery and equipment and as a
               result, with effect from April 1, 2007, machinery and equipment
               is to be depreciated over estimated useful lives of 7 years
               rather than 5 years prior to such date. The change reflects the
               Company's best estimate of the useful lives of it equipment and
               was also based on experience accumulated from Fab 1 and on recent
               trends in industry practices. The Company believes that the
               change better reflects the economics associated with the
               ownership of the equipment. This change has been accounted for as
               a change in estimate and was applied prospectively.

     B.   ESTABLISHMENT AND OPERATIONS OF NEW FABRICATION FACILITY ("FAB 2")

          In 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved the establishment
          of the Company's second wafer fabrication facility in Israel ("Fab
          2"). In Fab 2, the Company manufactures semiconductor integrated
          circuits on silicon wafers in geometries of 0.18 to 0.13 micron on
          200-millimeter wafers. In connection with the establishment, equipping
          and financing of Fab 2, the Company has entered into several related
          agreements and other arrangements and since 2001 has completed public
          and private financing transactions. For additional information, see
          Note 11A to the 2006 audited consolidated financial statements.

          The Fab 2 project is a complex undertaking, which entails substantial
          risks and uncertainties.

          For further details concerning the Fab 2 project and related
          agreements, some of which were amended several times, see Note 11A to
          the 2006 audited consolidated financial statements.

     C.   FINANCING OF THE COMPANY'S ONGOING OPERATIONS

          In recent years, the Company has experienced significant recurring
          losses, recurring negative cash flows from operating activities and an
          increasing accumulated deficit. The Company is working in various ways
          to mitigate its financial difficulties and among them are the
          following:

          Since the second half of 2005, the Company increased its customer
          base, mainly in Fab 2, modified its organizational structure to better
          address its customers and its market positioning, increased its sales
          and its EBITDA, reduced its losses, increased its capacity level and
          utilization rates, raised funds totaling approximately $238,000 in
          gross proceeds, excluding the amounts described in Note 3B below (see
          Note 3 below and Notes 12C(2), 12I, 12J, and 12K to the 2006 audited
          consolidated financial statements) and restructured its bank debt (see
          Note 11A(6) to the 2006 audited consolidated financial statements).

     C.   FINANCING OF THE COMPANY'S ONGOING OPERATIONS (CONT.)

          In March 2006, the board of directors of the Company approved a plan
          to ramp up Fab 2's capacity to approximately 24,000 wafers per month
          in order to help meet customer needs and product qualification needs,
          based on the Company's customer pipeline and reinforced by forecasted
          market conditions. As of June 30, 2007, the Company is in advanced
          stages of the Fab 2 ramp-up plan.

          For details regarding the financing efforts of the ramp-up plan,
          including the definitive amendment to the Company's facility agreement
          with two leading Israeli banks ("Banks") for the restructuring of its
          debt and the securities purchase agreement with Israel Corporation
          Ltd. ("TIC") according to which TIC invested $100,000 in the Company,
          which both closed in September 2006, see Notes 11A(6) and 11A(4) to
          the 2006 audited consolidated financial statements.

          Further, the Company continues to examine alternatives for additional
          funding sources in order to further ramp-up the equipping of Fab2,
          including those described in Notes 3B and 3C below.

NOTE 3 - RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     A.   MARCH 2007 PRIVATE PLACEMENT IN THE US - In March 2007, the Company
          completed a private placement of its securities in which it sold
          ordinary shares and warrants for the purchase of ordinary shares,
          raising a total of approximately $29,000 in gross proceeds. In the
          private placement, the Company issued approximately 18.8 million
          shares, warrants exercisable into approximately 9.4 million shares at
          an exercise price of $2.04 (subject to possible adjustments under
          certain circumstances), exercisable until March 15, 2012 ("Series I
          Warrants"), and short-term warrants exercisable into approximately
          18.8 million shares at an exercise price of $1.70, which was identical
          to the closing price of the Company's Ordinary Shares on the NASDAQ on
          the trading day immediately prior to the closing of the private
          placement ("Series II Warrants"), exercisable until December 31, 2007.
          Subject to certain conditions, the Company can compel the exercise of
          the Series II Warrants if during any 20 out of 30 consecutive trading
          days the closing price of the Company's shares on NASDAQ exceeds
          $2.12.

          In accordance with Standard No. 22 of Israeli GAAP, Series I Warrants
          have been initially classified as a liability and subsequently marked
          to market through profit and loss.

          See Note 4F for disclosure of the accounting treatment in accordance
          with U.S. GAAP.

     B.   JUNE 2007 LONG-TERM BONDS FUND-RAISING IN ISRAEL - In June 2007, in a
          private placement with Israeli institutions of long-term convertible
          and non-convertible bonds and warrants, the Company received orders
          totaling a gross amount of approximately $40,000. In the funding, 342
          units were sold, each comprised of: (i) long-term
          non-convertible-bonds, repayable in six equal annual installments
          between the dates of December 2011 and December 2016, with a face
          amount of NIS 250,000 (approximately $59.7) and carrying an annual
          interest rate of 8 percent; (ii) long-term convertible-bonds repayable
          in December 2012 with a 17.2 NIS conversion price (approximately
          $4.11) with a face amount of NIS 262,500 (approximately $62.7),
          carrying an annual interest of 8 percent, and (iii) 5,800 warrants,
          each exercisable for four years, for one Tower ordinary share at a
          price of $2.04 (approximately 8.54 NIS). The bonds are linked to the
          Israeli Consumer Price Index (CPI) and were issued at 95.5% of par
          value. The conversion and exercise prices are subject to reduction in
          certain limited circumstances. All figures in dollars are presented
          herein for convenience only, based on the exchange rate prevailing at
          the time of the private placement. Under Israeli securities laws, the
          securities were subject to a statutory lock-up. The Company undertook
          to file a prospectus with the Israel Securities Authority to allow for
          the unrestricted trade of the securities. The funds raised were held
          in escrow to be released to the Company if the prospectus is declared
          effective by the Israel Securities Authority within 90 days from the
          date of the offering.

     B.   JUNE 2007 LONG-TERM BONDS FUND-RAISING IN ISRAEL (CONT.)

          In the event the prospectus was not declared effective by the Israel
          Securities Authority within such period, the investors would have had
          the option to receive back their investment.

          As of June 30, 2007, the proceeds were in escrow, and the Company was
          not entitled to receive them, and as such, the proceeds are not
          recorded in the Company's balance sheet as cash or deposit or accounts
          receivable balances as of June 30, 2007, and likewise, no obligation
          to make repayment on account of the convertible and non-convertible
          bonds was recorded by the Company in its balance sheet as long-term
          liabilities as of June 30, 2007. In July 2007, the Company's
          prospectus was declared effective by the Israel Securities Authority
          and as such the securities issued in the private placement are no
          longer subject to the statutory lock-up and in August 2007 the
          proceeds raised were released to the Company. The prospectus also
          contemplated a public offering of the same securities issued in the
          June 2007 private placement. The timing of and the amount and offering
          prices of such securities has yet to be determined.

     C.   JULY 2007 LETTERS OF INTENT ("LOIS") - In July 2007, the Company
          concluded the signatures of LOIs with its lender banks, Bank Leumi and
          Bank Hapoalim, and with Israel Corporation, a major shareholder, to
          provide credit lines totaling up to $60,000, in order to secure the
          funding of equipment required for a ramp up plan the Company is
          considering to execute for Fab 2. Loans to be borrowed, if at all,
          under the credit lines will bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR
          plus 3% and will be repayable by no later than March 2010. The LOIs
          are subject to the signing and closing of definitive agreements and
          the receipt of corporate approvals. They also contemplate that the
          Company will pay the banks and TIC customary fees, including issuing
          warrants for an aggregate amount of approximately 1.5% of the
          Company's fully diluted share capital with an exercise price of $2.04.

     With regard to the Company's interim financial statements, the material
     differences between GAAP in Israel and in the U.S. relate to the following.
     See Note 4(I) below for the presentation of the Company's unaudited balance
     sheet as of June 30, 2007 in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

     A.   RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS BY THE FASB

          SFAS NO. 157, "FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS"

          In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value
          Measurements" (SFAS No. 157). The purpose of SFAS No. 157 is to define
          fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value, and
          enhance disclosures about fair value measurements.

          The Company decided to early adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 157
          effective January 1, 2007, concurrent with the adoption of FASB 159
          "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities"
          (SFAS No. 159) see H below.

     A.   RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS BY THE FASB (CONT.)

          SFAS NO. 159, "THE FAIR VALUE OPTION FOR FINANCIAL ASSETS AND
          FINANCIAL LIABILITIES"

          In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option
          for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" (SFAS No. 159). SFAS
          No. 159 permits companies to choose to measure certain financial
          instruments and certain other items at fair value. The standard
          requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair
          value option has been elected be reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is
          effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal
          year 2008, although earlier adoption is permitted. The Company decided
          to early adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 159 effective January 1,
          2007, and elected to carry at fair value the Facility agreement, see H
          below.

          FIN NO. 48. ACCOUNTING FOR UNCERTAINTY IN INCOME TAXES

          On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting
          for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement
          No. 109" ("FIN 48"), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in
          tax positions. This Interpretation requires recognition in the
          financial statements of the impact of a tax position, if that position
          is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the
          technical merits of the position. A tax position that meets the
          more-likely-than-not recognition threshold shall initially and
          subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is
          greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate
          settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all
          relevant information. Measurement of a tax position that meets the
          more-likely-than-not recognition threshold shall consider the amounts
          and probabilities of the outcomes that could be realized upon ultimate
          settlement using the facts, circumstances, and information available
          at the reporting date.

          The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the 2007 fiscal year with
          the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principles recorded
          as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. FIN 48
          did not have a material effect on the financial condition results of
          operations, of the Company.

     B.   PRESENTATION OF NET LONG-TERM LIABILITIES IN RESPECT OF EMPLOYEE
          SEVERANCE PAY

          Under U.S. GAAP, assets and liabilities relating to severance
          arrangements are to be presented separately and are not to be offset,
          while according to Israeli GAAP such an offset is required.
          Accordingly, as of June 30, 2007, an amount of $12,849 was
          reclassified from other long-term liabilities as long-term
          investments.

          Complying with SFAS 133 as amended and the related interpretations
          thereon as they apply to the Company's hedging transactions, as of
          June 30, 2007, such transactions would have resulted in: an increase
          in other long-term investments in the amount of $1,743; an accumulated
          other comprehensive income component of equity balance as of June 30,
          2007 in the amount of $414 (as of December 31, 2006, an accumulated
          other comprehensive loss component of equity balance in the amount of
          $203) ; and in a decrease of $1,329 in property and equipment, net as
          of June 30, 2007.

     D.   ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

          Under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 14 ("APB 14"), the
          proceeds from the sale of the securities in the Company's January 2002
          Israeli public offering are to be allocated to each of the securities
          issued based on their relative fair value, while according to Israeli
          GAAP such treatment was not required. Complying with APB 14, based on
          the average market value of each of the components issued in the first
          three days following their issuance (in January 2002), would have
          resulted in an increase in shareholders' equity as of the issuance
          date in the amount of $2,363 (net of $196 related issuance expenses),
          and a decrease in convertible debentures as of such date in the amount
          of $2,559. The additional accumulated effect of amortization of the
          discount on the convertible debentures under U.S. GAAP as of June 30,
          2007 would have been $780. Commencing with the adoption of Standard
          No. 22 in January 2006, allocation of proceeds in a unit, to its
          components, is based on relative fair values under Israeli GAAP as
          well as under US GAAP.

          Under US GAAP, convertible debentures have to be evaluated to
          determine if they contain embedded derivative that warrant
          bifurcation. Conversion features embedded in convertible debentures
          will need to be evaluated as to whether they can be classified as
          equity based on the criteria established in EITF Issues 00-19 and
          05-2. The Company evaluated the conversion features embedded in its
          debentures (i.e., sale of convertible debentures in 2002 - "2002
          debentures", sale of convertible debentures in 2005 - "2005
          debentures" and sale of convertible debentures in 2006 - "2006
          debentures") and concluded that the conversion feature embedded in the
          2005 and 2006 debentures warrant bifurcation while the conversion
          feature embedded in the 2002 debentures need not be separated.

          2002 DEBENTURES:

          Under US GAAP, the equity component, in the amount of $1,681,
          classified in equity under Israeli GAAP should have not been separated
          and was required to be included as part of the carrying amount of the
          debentures.

     D.   ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (CONT.)

          2005 AND 2006 DEBENTURES:

          Under US GAAP, the equity component of the 2005 and 2006 debentures,
          in the amounts of $12,312 and $6,030 respectively, as of June 30,
          2007, classified as equity under Israeli GAAP were reclassified to
          liabilities and the conversion features were bifurcated from the debt
          host and marked to market through earnings. The initial amount
          allocated to the bifurcated conversion features were determined using
          the "with and without" method based on the fair value of the embedded
          derivative prescribed in DIG Issue B6.

          All the above would have resulted, as of June 30, 2007, mainly in a
          decrease in convertible debentures in the amount of $5,987; an
          increase in the shareholder's equity in the amount of $6,723; and an
          increase in other assets in the amount of $736. The Company's loss for
          the six month period ended June 30, 2007 would have increased in the
          amounts of $1,156.

     E.   ISSUED WARRANTS PRESENTATION

          Under U.S. GAAP the Company's series 5 warrants were initially
          recorded as liability due to the ratchet provision included in them.
          Upon the effective date of the prospectus filed in Israel registering
          such warrants, the ratchet expired and the series 5 warrants were
          eligible for equity classification based on the criteria in EITF
          00-19.

          Complying with the above would have resulted as of June 30, 2007
          mainly in a decrease in other long term liabilities and an increase in
          shareholder's equity in the amount of $1,817. The Company's loss for
          the six month period ended June 30, 2007 would have increased in the
          amount of $1,271.

     F.   MARCH 2007 PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF ORDINARY SHARES AND WARRANTS

          Under US GAAP all components in the private placement should be
          classified in equity. As of June 30, 2007 this difference will result
          in a decrease in liabilities and increase in shareholders equity in
          the amount of $3,074. The Company's loss for the six month period
          ended June 30, 2007 would have increased in the amount of $796.

     G.   EMPLOYEE STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

          The Company adopted, effective January 1, 2006, SFAS 123R according to
          which the compensation expense related to employee and directors share
          option awards would have resulted in an increase in the compensations
          expenses for the six month period ending June 30, 2007 in the amount
          of $618. The Company elected the modified prospective method as its
          transition method. The adoption of SFAS 123R for US GAAP along with
          the adoption of Standard no. 24 for Israeli GAAP, decreased the
          potential differences between US GAAP and Israeli GAAP as it related
          to stock based compensation.

     H.   FACILITY AGREEMENT

          Under US GAAP the debt modification under the Amendment to the
          Company's facility agreement, which closed in September 2006, is
          considered troubled debt restructuring within the scope of FASB No. 15
          ACCOUNTING BY DEBTORS AND CREDITORS FOR TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS
          which requires the following: (i) the amount considered settled for
          shares and classified in equity is based on the price per share as
          quoted at the closing date; (ii) the remaining balance after deduction
          of the amount used as proceeds for the share issuance in (i) above,
          will remain outstanding ; (iii) a new, lower effective interest rate
          will be calculated as the interest rate that equates future payments
          to the outstanding balance; and (iv) no gains or losses are recognized
          in the current period.

          During the first quarter of 2007 the Company decided to early adopt
          the provisions of SFAS No. 159 THE FAIR VALUE OPTION FOR FINANCIAL
          ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES. As required by the standard the
          Company also adopted the provisions of FASB 157 FAIR VALUE
          Measurements. The adoption of the standard is effective January 1,
          2007. According to the standard the Company can choose to carry at
          fair value eligible items as defined in the standard, from the date of
          early adoption and accordingly the Company decided to apply the fair
          value option to the Facility agreement.

          The effect of applying the fair value option to the facility agreement
          as of the January 1, 2007 was $65,207 which has been recorded as a
          cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings (no tax effects have
          been recorded). The carrying amount of the facility agreement prior to
          the adoption was $432,430 and immediately after was $367,223. The
          Company reasoned it election of the fair value option for the facility
          agreement on the fact that the application of FASB 15 to the facility
          agreement did not reflect the economic benefits that has been achieved
          with the consummation of the facility agreement and that the
          application of the fair value reflect such benefits in more economic
          way. Also the adoption of the fair value option will decrease the GAAP
          difference that currently exist between Israeli GAAP and IFRS vs. the
          US GAAP.

NOTE 4 - MATERIAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ISRAELI AND U.S. GAAP (CONT.)

     H.   FACILITY AGREEMENT (CONT.)

          Under US GAAP the debt modification under the Amendment is considered
          to include an embedded derivative that should be separately accounted
          for. The Company considered the obligation to issue shares as agreed
          with the Banks and determined that it contains two components (i) a
          contingent component and (ii) an uncontingent component. The
          contingent component is the obligation to issue shares equal to half
          of the amount of the Decreased Amount if the Fourth Quarter 2010 Price
          is less than $3.49. The uncontingent component is the obligation to
          issue shares equal to half of the Decreased Amount regardless of the
          Fourth Quarter 2010 Price. The Company accounted for the uncontingent
          component as an additional interest expense and calculated the
          effective interest rate to include such expense. The Company treated
          the uncontingent component as an embedded derivative that needs to be
          bifurcated and separately accounted for based on fair value. Initial
          separation of the embedded derivative will be done using the "with and
          without" method described in DIG Issue B6. Changes in the fair value
          of the embedded derivative will be included in financing expenses.

          All the above resulted in a decrease of $8,912 in the shareholders
          equity and an increase of the same amount in the long-term loans from
          the banks as of June 30, 2007. The decrease in the shareholders equity
          includes cumulative effect as of December 31, 2006, which decreased
          the accumulated deficit in the amount of $65,207. The Company's loss
          for six month period ended June 30, 2007 would have decreased in the
          amount of $1,364.

          Complying with FASB No. 159 (H above), SFAS 133 (C above), APB 14 (D
          above) and SFAS 123R (G above) would have resulted in an increase in
          the loss for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 in the amount of
          $2,477. The loss for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 would
          have decreased in the amount of $1,007

          Giving effect to all the above, the loss for the six month periods
          ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 would be $74,298 and $87,725,
          respectively.

          For the cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings in the

          equity during a reporting period from transactions and other events
          and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in
          equity during a reporting period except those resulting from
          investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive
          income (loss) represents gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are
          included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income.
          Following are statements of comprehensive loss in accordance with U.S.
