Report of Independent Auditors
To the Shareholders of
Followap Inc. and its Consolidated Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Followap Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated 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 consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries include Followap R&D (2000) Ltd. in Israel, Followap GmbH in Germany and Followap Limited incorporated in September 2004, in the U.K.
 
  B.   Over 90% of the Company’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were derived from sales to one major customer and its affiliates.
 
  C.   The high technology industry in which the Group is involved is highly competitive and is characterized by the risks of rapidly changing technologies. Penetration into the world market requires the investment of considerable resources and continuous development efforts. The Group’s future success is dependent upon several factors including the technological quality and price/performance of its products relative to those of its competitors. There can be no assurance that the Group will be able to maintain the high technological quality of its product or to continue to develop or market its new products effectively.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
      The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.
 
  A.   Basis of presentation
 
      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The accounts of the subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of their inception. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
 
  B.   Use of 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.
 
  C.   Financial statements in U.S. Dollars
 
      The Group’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S Dollar. The Group’s transaction and balances denominated in U.S. Dollars are presented at their original amount. The non- U.S. Dollar transactions and balances have been remeasured to dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 52. “Foreign Currency Translation”.

  D.   Cash equivalents
 
      Cash equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less.
 
  E.   Allowance for doubtful debts
 
      Allowances are provided on the basis of specific accounts whose collection is, in the opinion of management, doubtful.
 
      As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, there were no accounts for which the collection was uncertain.
 
  F.   Property and equipment
 
      Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets at the following annual rates:
     
    %
Computers and peripheral equipment
  33
Office furniture and equipment
  7-15
Test equipment
  15
Leasehold improvements
  over the term of the lease
      The Company’s 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” (“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 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. During 2005 and 2004 no impairment losses were recorded.
 
  G.   Accounting for stock-based compensation:
  1.   The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and Interpretation No. 44 “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation” (“FIN 44”) in accounting for its employee stock option plans. Under APB 25, when the exercise price of the Company’s stock options is less than the market price of the underlying shares on the date of grant, compensation expense is recognized.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
  G.   Accounting for stock-based compensation (cont.):
 
      The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — transition and disclosure”, which amended certain provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, effective as of the beginning of 2003. The Company continues to apply the provisions of APB No. 25 in accounting for stock-based compensation.
 
      Pro forma information regarding net loss is required by SFAS No. 123 and has been determined as if the Company has accounted for its employee stock options under the minimum value method of that statement (which assumes an expected volatility of zero). The value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Valuation Model, with the following weighted-average assumptions:
         
    For the year ended   For the year ended
    December 31,   December 31,
    2005   2004
Dividend yield
  0%   0%
Expected volatility
  0%   0%
Risk-free interest rate
  4%   2.5%
Expected life
  7.5 years   7.5 years
  2.   The Company applies SFAS No. 123 and EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”) with respect to options and warrants issued to non-employees. SFAS No. 123 and EITF 96-18 require the use of an option valuation model to measure the fair value of the options.
  H.   Research and development expenses
 
      Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of operation as incurred.
 
  I.   Revenue recognition
 
      The Company derives its revenues from licenses and services, software subscriptions, support and consulting. License revenues consist of fees for perpetual licenses of the Company’s software products. Service revenues include maintenance and consulting revenues.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
  I.   Revenue recognition (cont.)
 
      The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition, as amended (“SOP No. 97-2”). In addition, the Company has adopted Statement of Position No. 98-9, “Modification of SOP No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions” (“SOP No. 98-9”). SOP No. 98-9 requires that revenue be recognized under the “residual method” when Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements and VSOE does not exist for all of the delivered elements.
 
      Revenues from license fees are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. The Company concluded that since it has only one major customer it does not have VSOE of fair value. As a result, revenues from license fees are recognized ratably over the period of the service agreement existing at date of acceptance.
 
      Service revenues are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the maintenance terms or when services are performed. Maintenance arrangements provide technical customer support and the right to unspecified upgrades on a when-and-if basis. Revenues from other services are recognized as the services are delivered.
 
      Deferred revenues include amounts received from customers for which revenues have not been recognized.
 
  J.   Severance pay
 
      The Company’s liability for severance pay is calculated pursuant to the agreements signed with its employees.
 
      The Israeli subsidiary’s liability for severance pay is calculated pursuant to Israeli 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 in Israel are entitled to one month’s salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof. The Israeli subsidiary’s liability for all of its Israeli employees is provided by monthly deposits with insurance policies and by an accrual. The value of these policies is recorded as an asset in the Group’s balance sheet.
 
      The deposited funds may be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to Israeli severance pay law or labor agreements. The value of the deposited funds is based on the cash surrendered value of these policies, and includes immaterial profits.
 
      Severance expenses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $40 and $136, respectively.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
  K.   Concentrations of credit risk:
 
      Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company and its subsidiaries to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents.
 
      The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in major banks in Israel and the United States. Such deposits in the U.S. may be in excess of insured limits and are not insured in other jurisdictions. 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 and its subsidiaries have no off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.
 
  L.   Fair value of financial instruments:
 
      The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts receivables, trade payables and accounts payable, approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.
 
  M.   Income taxes
 
      The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”). This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on differences between 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 will provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.
 
  N.   Impact of recently issued accounting standards
  1.   On December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets,” an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29 (“SFAS 153”). The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions (“APB 29”), is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measure based on fair value of the assets exchanged. APB 29 included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS 153 amends APB 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 153 will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

  N.   Impact of recently issued accounting standards (cont.)
  2.   On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“Statement 123R”), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. Generally, the approach in Statement 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123 permitted, but did not require, share-based payments to employees to be recognized based on their fair values while Statement 123R requires all share-based payments to employees to be recognized based on their fair values. Statement 123R also revises, clarifies and expands guidance in several areas, including measuring fair value, classifying an award as equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods.
 
      Statement 123(R) requires nonpublic companies that used the minimum value method of measuring equity share options and similar instruments for either recognition or pro forma disclosure purposes under SFAS No. 123 to adopt its requirements prospectively to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date. Those entities shall continue to account for any portion of awards outstanding at the date of initial application using the accounting principles originally applied to those awards (either the minimum value method under SFAS No. 123 or the provisions of APB 25 and its related interpretive guidance).
 
      In March 2005, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 provides the SEC staff’s position regarding the application of Statement 123R, which contains interpretive guidance related to the interaction between Statement 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations, and also provides the staff’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies.
 
      The impact of adoption of Statement 123(R) and SAB 107 will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in the future. Since outstanding awards are to be accounted for based on principles originally applied to them (unless modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date) no resulting accounting effect is expected for such awards. The Company expects the adoption to result in the recognition of stock-based compensation expense of approximately $4.5 to $5.0 million for options granted during 2006.
 
      The new Standard will be effective for the Company in the first fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2005.
 
  3.   In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154 (“FAS 154”), “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” — a replacement of APB No. 20, “Accounting Changes” and FAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statement”.  FAS 154 provides guidance on accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections.

  N.   Impact of recently issued accounting standards (cont.)
 
      APB No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. FAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable.
 
      As of December 31, 2005, adoption of SFAS 154 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

  B.   Stock Options and warrants to customers and service providers
  1.   In January 2000, the Company issued to a service provider options to purchase 70,000 Ordinary shares of $ 0.001 par value of the Company at an exercise price of $ 0.0714 per share. In January 2004 the service provider exercised his right to purchase ordinary shares of the Company in consideration to $5.
 
  2.   In February 2004, the Company granted to a customer a warrant to purchase 60,000 Ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.917 per share. This warrant is fully vested.
 
  3.   During 2004 the Company granted options to purchase 230,150 Ordinary shares to consultants at an exercise price of $0.0015 per share. The options granted, vest on grant date up to a period of four years. The fair value of these options was estimated using Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2004: risk-free interest rate of 2.5%, dividend yields of 0%, expected volatility of 60% and a weighted-average contractual life of the options of approximately 10 years. Compensation expenses of approximately $100 and $54 were recognized in the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In 2005 no options were granted to consultants.
  C.   Stock options to directors and employees
 
      The Board of Directors of the Company adopted a plan to grant options to purchase Ordinary shares of the Company to officers, employees and directors of the Company. The options shall terminate within 10 years after the date of the grant.

      The options were granted at an exercise price per share of $0.001- $1.72. The weighted average fair value per share of options granted during the years 2005 and 2004 was $1.69 and $1.505 respectively.
 
  D.   Compensation expenses with respect to options granted to employees
 
      The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options granted to employees and directors of the Group. The number of shares is fixed at the date of grants. Accordingly, the difference between the fair value of the shares on the date of grant and the exercise price of such options is charged to statement of operations over the vesting period.
 
      Had compensation expenses for stock options granted been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates, consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the effect on the results of operation for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 would have amounted as follows:
                 
    Year ended December 31,  
    2005     2004  
 
               
Net loss as reported
  $ (3,306 )   $ (2,099 )

Note 12 — Taxes on Income
  A.   Taxation
 
      The Company is taxed under United States federal and state tax rules.
 
  B.   Loss for tax purposes
 
      The Company’s carryforward tax losses amounted to approximately $9.7 million as of December 31, 2005. Such losses are available to offset any future U.S. taxable income of the Company and will expire in the years 2021-2025.
 
  C.   Income tax assessments
 
      The Company and its subsidiaries have not been assessed for tax purposes since incorporation.
 
  D.   Subsidiaries
  1.   The subsidiaries of the Company are subject to tax laws in their countries of residence.
 
  2.   Israeli income tax is computed on the basis of the Israeli subsidiary’s results in nominal New Israeli Shekels (“NIS”) determined for statutory purposes. The Israeli subsidiary is assessed for tax purposes under the Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments 1985), the purpose of which is to prevent taxation of inflationary profits.
 
      On May 2001, the Israeli subsidiary submitted a request to the Investment Center of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce (hereinafter “Investment Center”) for the approval of its investment program as an “Approved Enterprise” status under the alternative benefits method pursuant to the Israeli Tax Law. The benefit period deriving from the plan is due to end in 2007.
 
  3.   The main benefits of which the Israeli subsidiary will be entitled, if the Israeli subsidiary implements all the terms of the approved program and the Israeli Tax Law, are the reduced tax rates on income deriving from an approved enterprise and reduced tax rates on dividends originating from this income. The income derived from an approved enterprise will be exempt from tax for a two year period, commencing on the date that taxable income is first generated by the approved enterprise (limited to the earlier of a maximum period of 12 years from the year of commencement of operations or 14 years from the year in which the approval letter was received), and will be subject to a reduced tax rate of 25% during the remaining tax benefits period (five years). The reduced tax rate and the remaining period are subject to the percentage of foreign shareholders.
 
      Dividend distributions originating from the income of the Approved Enterprise will be subject to withholding tax at the rate of 25%, provided that the dividend is distributed during the period stipulated in the Law. If the Israeli subsidiary derives income from sources other than the approved enterprise during the relevant period of benefits, such income will be taxable at regular corporate tax rate. (See G below).

In June 2004, an amendment to the Income Tax Ordinance (No. 140 and Temporary Provision), 2004 was passed by the “Knesset” (Israeli parliament) and on July 25, 2005, another law was passed, the amendment to the Income Tax Ordinance (No. 147) 2005, according to which the corporate tax rate is to be progressively reduced to the following tax rates: 2004 — 35%, 2005 — 34%, 2006 - 31%, 2007 — 29%, 2008 — 27%, 2009 — 26%, 2010 and thereafter — 25%.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1:- GENERAL
  A.   Followap Inc. (the “Company”), registered in Delaware, was incorporated in December 1999 and commenced operations on January 19, 2000. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Followap R&D 2000 Ltd. in Israel, Followap GmbH in Germany and Followap Ltd. in the UK are engaged in development, marketing and sales of Mobile Instant Messaging Presence and Location (IMPL) platforms for mobile operators.
 
      Most of the Company’s revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 and for the year ended December 31, 2005 were derived from sales to a major customer and his affiliates.
  B.   The high technology industry in which the Company is involved is highly competitive and is characterized by the risks of rapidly changing technologies. Penetration into the world market requires the investment of considerable resources and continuous development efforts. The Company’s future success is dependent upon several factors including the technological quality and price/performance of its products relative to those of its competitors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain the high technological quality of its product or to continue to develop or market its new products effectively.
  C.   The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 2006.
NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
  A.   The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2005 are applied consistently in these consolidated financial statements, except as detailed in b below.
  B.   Stock based compensation
      On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors. SFAS 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), for periods beginning in fiscal 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued.)
  C.   Stock based compensation (continued)
      SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated income statement.
 
      Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for equity-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”). Compensation expense is equal to the excess, if any, of the market price of the stock over the exercise price on the grant date of the award. Pro forma information regarding net loss is required by SFAS 123 and has been determined as if the Company has accounted for its employee stock options under the Minimum value method (which assumes an expected volatility of zero).
 
      Statement 123(R) requires nonpublic companies that used the minimum value method of measuring equity share options for pro forma disclosure purposes under SFAS 123 to adopt its requirements prospectively to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date. The Company continues to account for any portion of awards outstanding at the date of initial application using the accounting principles originally applied to those awards, the provisions of Opinion 25 and its related interpretive guidance.
 
      The Company recognizes compensation expenses for the value of its awards, which have graded vesting over a period of 4 years, based on the straight line method over the requisite service period of each of the awards. The contractual life of the options is 10 years from date of grant.
 
      As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company’s loss before taxes on income and net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, is $2,379 higher than if it had continued to account for stock-based compensation under APB 25. During the nine months period ended September 30, 2006, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock options in the amount of $4,434.
 
      The Company estimates the value of its stock options using the “calculated value” on grant date that incorporates each of the inputs required by Statement 123(R),with the exception of the expected volatility of its stock. The calculated value method requires that the volatility assumption used in an option pricing model be based on the historical volatility of similar public companies. The Company measures compensation cost of employee stock options based on the calculated value instead of fair value because it is not practical to estimate the volatility of its share price.
 
      The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the value of its share-based payments.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued.)
  C.   Stock based compensation (continued)
 
      The expected option term represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and was determined according to simplified method as suggested by SAB107, the average of vesting and the contractual terms of the stock options. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from U.S. Treasury bonds with an equivalent term.
 
      The fair value of the Company’s stock options granted to employees and directors for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions:
         
    Nine months  
    ended  
    September 30,

      The weighted-average grant-date value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $ 6.05. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s stock price on September 30, 2006 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on September 30, 2006. This amount changes based on the value of the Company’s stock. As of September 30, 2006, there was $ 6,910 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.

      Options granted to non-employees:
 
      The Company applies SFAS 123 and Emerging Issues 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”, with respect to options issued to non-employees. SFAS 123 requires the use of option valuation models to measure the fair value of the options and warrants.
 
      The fair value for these options was estimated at the measurement date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions for 2006: risk-free interest rates of 2.5%, dividend yields of 0%, volatility factors of the historical volatility of similar public companies of 60% and a contractual life of 7.5 years.
 
      Compensation expenses related to the granting of stock options to consultants amounted to $39 for the nine month periods ending September 30, 2006.
  D.   Recently issued accounting pronouncements:
  1.   FASB Interpretation No. 48:
 
      In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 utilizes a two-step approach for evaluating tax positions. Recognition (step one) occurs when an enterprise concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement (step two) is only addressed if step one has been satisfied (i.e., the position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained). Under step two, the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit, determined on a cumulative probability basis that is more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement.
 
      FIN 48 applies to all tax positions related to income taxes subject to the Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No. 109, “Accounting for income taxes” (“FAS 109”). This includes tax positions considered to be “routine” as well as those with a high degree of uncertainty.
 
      FIN 48 has expanded disclosure requirements, which include a tabular roll forward of the beginning and ending aggregate unrecognized tax benefits as well as specific detail related to tax uncertainties for which it is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit will significantly increase or decrease within twelve months. These disclosures are required at each annual reporting period unless a significant change occurs in an interim period.

  D.   Recently issued accounting pronouncements (cont.)
 
      FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The cumulative effect of applying FIN 48 will be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48.
  2.   SFAS No. 157:
 
      In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This statement provides a single definition of fair value, a framework for measuring fair value, and expanded disclosures concerning fair value. Previously, different definitions of fair value were contained in various accounting pronouncements creating inconsistencies in measurement and disclosures. SFAS No. 157 applies under those previously issued pronouncements that prescribe fair value as the relevant measure of value, except SFAS No. 123(R) and related interpretations. The statement does not apply to accounting standard that require or permit measurement similar to fair value but are not intended to represent fair value. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157.
  3.   Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108:
 
      In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”) Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, that provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The SEC staff believes that registrants should quantify errors using both a balance sheet and an income statement approach and evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SAB 108.
NOTE 3:- SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006
  A.   On August 16, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with a lender for the extension of a line of credit to the Company for a year in an amount of up to $ 4,500.

Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
     On November 27, 2006, NeuStar, Inc. (“NeuStar” or the “Company”) completed its acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Followap Inc. (“Followap”). On April 21, 2006, NeuStar completed its acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of UltraDNS Corporation (“UltraDNS”). The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the historical financial statements of NeuStar, UltraDNS and Followap and have been prepared to give effect to these completed acquisitions, which were accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS 141”).
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet gives effect to the acquisition of Followap as if it had occurred on September 30, 2006. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 gives effect to the acquisition of Followap, as well as the acquisition of UltraDNS, as if they had occurred on January 1, 2005. The assumptions, estimates and adjustments herein have been made solely for purposes of developing these pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.
     NeuStar’s acquisition of Followap will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141. Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price, calculated as described in Notes 1 and 2 to these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, is allocated to the net tangible liabilities assumed and the intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition, based on their estimated fair values as of the effective date of the acquisition. Management’s estimates of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based, in part, on third-party valuations. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a preliminary valuation and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change.
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments regarding liabilities incurred or cost savings achieved resulting from the integration of these companies, as management is in the process of assessing what, if any, future actions are necessary. However, additional liabilities ultimately may be recorded for severance and/or other costs associated with removing redundant operations that could affect amounts in these pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, and their effects may be material.
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical audited consolidated financial statements and related notes of NeuStar, “Management’s Discussions and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in NeuStar’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 and NeuStar’s Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2006, as well as the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of Followap which are attached as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3, to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are not intended to represent or be indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial condition of NeuStar that would have been reported had the acquisition been completed as of the dates presented, and should not be construed as representative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial condition of the combined entity.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
NEUSTAR, INC.
Note 1. Basis of Pro Forma Presentation
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purposes of inclusion in NeuStar’s amended Form 8-K/A prepared in connection with the acquisition of Followap. These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements also give effect to the acquisition of UltraDNS.
     Certain information and certain footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures provided herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
     The information concerning NeuStar has been obtained from the audited consolidated financial statements of NeuStar for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The information concerning Followap has been obtained from the audited consolidated financial statements of Followap for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The information concerning UltraDNS has been obtained from the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the unaudited financial statements for the period from January 1, 2006 to April 20, 2006, the day immediately prior to the completion of the acquisition of UltraDNS by NeuStar.
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are provided for informational purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the Company’s financial position or results of operations which would actually have been obtained had such transactions been completed as of the date or for the periods presented, or of the financial position or results of operations that may be obtained in the future.
Note 2. Purchase Price Allocation
     On November 27, 2006, NeuStar completed its acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Followap. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared to give effect to the completed acquisition, which was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with SFAS No. 141. Followap is a leading provider of next-generation communications solutions for network operators, delivering interoperability between operators and Internet portals in five different functional areas, which are instant messaging, presence, multimedia gateways, inter-carrier messaging hubs, and services for handset clients. The total estimated purchase price was approximately $146.4 million, which includes cash consideration of $139.0 million, payment of Followap debt and other liabilities of $5.6 million and estimated direct transaction costs of $1.8 million. The consideration payable to the holders of options to purchase Followap common stock that had not vested as of the closing of the acquisition was deposited into an escrow fund for the benefit of option holders. These funds will be paid to the holders of such options over time as their options would have vested if they had not been canceled in connection with the acquisition. To the extent a holder of such options forfeits this consideration in accordance with the agreement and plan of merger, this consideration shall be distributed among the former shareholders of Followap.
     Of the total cash consideration, approximately $14.1 million was distributed to an escrow account, of which $13.8 million will be used for indemnification claims as set forth in the agreement and plan of merger. The other $0.3 million will be used for the reimbursement of certain costs and expenses of the representative for the former shareholders of Followap. All funds remaining in the account will be distributed to Followap stockholders in accordance with the agreement and plan of merger following 12 months from the completion of the acquisition.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
NEUSTAR, INC. (continued)
Note 2. Purchase Price Allocation (continued)
     Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to Followap’s net tangible liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as of November 27, 2006, the effective date of the acquisition. Based in part on a third party valuation, and other factors as described in the introduction to these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, the preliminary estimated purchase price is allocated as follows (in thousands):
         
Cash and cash equivalents
  $ 2,218  
Accounts receivable
    1,161  
Prepaid expenses and other current assets
    283  
Property and equipment
    1,094  
Other assets
    870  
Accounts payable
    (707 )
Accrued expenses
    (3,223 )
Deferred revenue
    (212 )
Other liabilities
    (1,019 )
Deferred tax liability, net
    (4,605 )
 
     
Net tangible liabilities assumed
    (4,140 )
Definite-lived intangible assets acquired
    30,600  
Goodwill
    119,904  
 
     
Total estimated purchase price
  $ 146,364  
 
     
     Of the total estimated purchase price, a preliminary estimate of $4.1 million has been allocated to net tangible liabilities assumed and $30.6 million has been allocated to definite-lived intangible assets acquired. The Company utilized a third party valuation in determining the fair value of the definite-lived intangible asset base. The income approach, which includes an analysis of cash flows and the risks associated with achieving such cash flows, was the primary technique utilized in valuing the identifiable intangible assets. The $30.6 million of definite lived intangible assets acquired consists of the value assigned to Followap’s customer relationships of $20.8 million and acquired technology of $9.8 million. NeuStar expects to amortize the value of the Followap customer relationships using an accelerated basis over five years and the value of the acquired technology will be amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years.
     Of the total estimated purchase price, approximately $119.9 million has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
     In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill will be tested for impairment at least annually (more frequently if certain impairment indicators are present). In the event that the management of the Company determines that the goodwill has become impaired, the Company will incur an accounting charge for the amount of impairment during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made.
Note 3. Pro Forma Adjustments
     Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price, to adjust amounts related to Followap’s net tangible liabilities and intangible assets to a preliminary estimate of the fair values of those amounts, to reflect the amortization expense related to the estimated amortizable intangible assets and to reclassify certain of Followap’s amounts to conform to NeuStar’s presentation.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
NEUSTAR, INC. (continued)
Note 3. Pro Forma Adjustments (continued)
     The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments for liabilities relating to Emerging Issues Task Force No. 95-3 (“EITF 95-3”), Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination. Management is in the process of assessing what, if any, future actions are necessary. However, liabilities ultimately may be recorded for severance or relocation costs, or other costs associated with exiting activities of Followap that may affect amounts in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.
     NeuStar has not identified any material preacquisition contingencies where the related asset, liability or impairment is probable and the amount of the asset, liability or impairment can be reasonably estimated. Prior to the end of the purchase price allocation period, if information becomes available which would indicate it is probable that such events have occurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, such items will be included in the purchase price allocation.
The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:
  a)   To reflect cash paid and related pro forma borrowings of $5.6 million related to the acquisition of Followap. The pro forma borrowings of $5.6 million represent the difference between the cash paid for the acquisition and the cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand as of September 30, 2006. As of the acquisition date, the Company had sufficient cash on hand to pay the entire purchase price of $146.4 million.
 
  b)   To reflect the fair value of acquired goodwill based on net assets acquired as if the acquisition occurred on September 30, 2006. The difference between the amount recorded on a pro forma basis and the actual balance as of the acquisition date is the result of changes in the net assets of Followap between September 30, 2006 and November 27, 2006.
 
  c)   To reflect the estimate of the fair value of customer relationships estimated to be $20.8 million and acquired technology estimated to be $9.8 million.
 
  d)   To reflect the payment of debt and other liabilities in connection with the acquisition of Followap.
 
  e)   To eliminate Followap’s deferred revenue that does not represent a legal performance obligation to the combined company. No adjustments were made to the pro forma statement of operations related to this pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet adjustment.
 
  f)   To reflect net deferred tax assets and liabilities related to the acquisition.
 
  g)   To eliminate Followap’s stockholders’ deficit balances.
 
  h)   Reclassification of depreciation expense to conform to presentation of NeuStar’s statement of operations.

  j)   To eliminate interest expense recognized for debt paid off in connection with the acquisitions of Followap and UltraDNS which would not have been incurred if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2005 and to reduce interest income due to cash utilized to fund these acquisitions.
 
  k)   To record income taxes at NeuStar’s consolidated effective income tax rate.
