On July 5, 2012, Europe Israel, Control Centers Ltd., Mr. Mordechay Zisser, Victory Investment Company Ltd. and Bank Hapoalim Ltd. entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Loan Agreement, dated May 4, 1999 (the "Original Loan Agreement").  Pursuant to the terms of the Original Loan Agreement and the Amendment, the loans from Bank Hapoalim are secured by all of the Issuer shares held by Europe Israel via Bank Hapoalim.  The parties entered into the Amendment to provide for a new repayment schedule for certain pre-existing loans, to increase the interest rates on certain outstanding loans, and to clarify the amounts of certain outstanding loans and their repayment schedules.  As of July 5, 2012, the total outstanding loan amount was approximately NIS 984.2 million (which was equal to approximately $251.5 million on July 5, 2012), which is required to be repaid in multiple installments ranging from November 30, 2012 until December 31, 2024.
 
In consideration for entering into the Amendment, Europe Israel agreed to grant Bank Hapoalim an option to purchase 913,410 shares of the Issuer (the "Option Shares").  The option grant will be subject to the terms of an option agreement to be entered into upon closing, which is expected to be held on or before July 25, 2012.  One third of the Option Shares has an exercise price of $3.00 per share, one third has an exercise price of $6.00 per share and one third has an exercise price of $9.00 per share.  The closing price of the Issuer shares on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on July 5, 2012 was $2.44 per share.  The option becomes exercisable on July 4, 2016 and expires on the later of (i) December 31, 2016, and (ii) the final payment of all obligations owed to Bank Hapoalim.  The option may be exercised through a cashless mechanism, provided that the net gain for Bank Hapoalim may not exceed NIS 120 million (which was equal to approximately $30.6 million on July 5, 2012).
