              it shall bear any expense or cost entailed therein.

      7.8     The Options and the Exercise Price shall be subject to the
              adjustment  rules  specified in APPENDIX B hereto.

                       provisions of subclause 7.9.2.2 above shall not apply,
                       while the Options whose exercise date had arrived on the
                       date of Termination of Services shall be exercisable
                       within the Abridged Exercise Period as defined in
                       subclause 7.9.2.3 of this Contract.

              7.9.4    Notwithstanding that stated in clauses 7.9.1, 7.9.2 and
                       7.9.3, in the event that Lipman holds in the course of
                       2003 a public offering of shares or convertible
                       securities (exclusive of an allotment of securities to
                       its employees), the Management Company shall be entitled
                       to exercise the First Portion of the Options as defined
                       in clause 7.3.1 above during the Abridged Exercise
                       Period, even if on the date of Termination of Services
                       the exercise date of the Options subject of the First
                       Portion had not arrived, and even where the Services were
                       terminated in the circumstances enumerated in clauses
                       7.9.1, 7.9.2 and 7.9.3, such that if not for the
                       provisions of this clause the Management Company would
                       not have been entitled to exercise the Options subject of
                       the First Portion, but excluding a case where the
                       Management Contract was canceled by Lipman due to
                       Exempting Circumstances.

              7.9.5    Notwithstanding that stated in clauses 7.9.3 and 7.9.4
                       above, insofar as the Termination of Services comes after
                       the First Period, due to Perry assuming a position which,
                       at Lipman's discretion, is a public position of national
                       importance, the Management Company shall be entitled to
                       exercise all the Options in accordance with this clause
                       7, at the times and upon the conditions as it would have
                       been entitled if not for the Termination of Services as
                       stated.

              7.9.6    Notwithstanding that stated in clauses 7.9.1, 7.9.2,
                       7.9.3 and 7.9.4 above, in any case where the Management
                       Company ceases to provide Lipman the Management Services
                       according to this Contract due to Perry's inability to
                       fill the position by reason of his incapacity or death
                       (God forbid), the Management Company shall continue to be
                       entitled to exercise the Options in accordance with this
                       clause 7, at the times and upon the conditions as it
                       would have been entitled if not for the Termination of
                       Services as stated.


                                      -8-

              the Contract or a claim thereunder. In case of deletions in the

of a full-time position.
























                                      -14-



                                   APPENDIX B

1.   DIVIDENDS. Should Lipman distribute a dividend, and where the date set for
     the distribution thereof occurs AFTER the date of allotment of the option
     warrants but before the actual date of exercise thereof, the amount of the
     dividend per share, in dollar-linked values calculated according to the
     representative rate of the dollar known on the date of payment of the
     dividend, shall be subtracted from the exercise price. Where the dividend
     is a non-cash dividend (but excluding bonus shares, in respect of which
     clause 2 below shall apply), the amount of the dividend shall be based on
     the economic value of the assets subject of that dividend, as determined by
     an economic appraiser prior to the performance of the distribution; and in
     the absence of an economic appraisal - based on the market value of that
     asset (insofar as it is a marketable asset) or on the book value of that
     asset in Lipman's financial statements - whichever is higher.

2.   BONUS SHARES; SPLIT OR CONSOLIDATION.

     2.1    Should Lipman distribute bonus shares, and where the date of record
            for the distribution thereof occurs AFTER the date of allotment of
            the relevant option warrants but before the actual date of exercise
            thereof, the number of shares to which the Management Company is
            entitled upon the exercise of the options shall increase according
            to the number of shares to which the Management Company would have
            been entitled as bonus shares had it exercised all the options
            before the date of record for distribution of the bonus shares.
     2.2    The exercise price of each option shall not change as a result of
            the increase in the number of shares to which the Management Company
            is entitled following the distribution of bonus shares as stated,
            but the payment for each share shall decrease accordingly. Similar
            adjustments shall be made in the case of the split (or
            consolidation) of Lipman shares.

3.   RIGHTS ISSUE.

     In case of a rights issue by Lipman to its shareholders for the purchase of
     Lipman shares, including securities convertible into Lipman shares,
     identical rights shall be offered to the Management Company in the same
     quantities as it could have been offered had it been entitled to exercise
     all the options before the date of record for distribution of the rights,
     at the price payable for the exercise of the rights, where exercise thereof
     is conditioned by the terms of issue on any payment. Said payment for the
     exercise of the rights shall be made at the time of the exercise of the
     relevant options, linked on basis of the "last known index" up to the known
     index on the date of exercise of the options, the base index being the
     known index on the final date for the exercise of the rights by the
     shareholders. The exercise amount including linkage differences shall be
     certified by Lipman's CPA.


                                      -15-


     If in the framework of the rights issue Lipman issues any convertible
     securities whose final date of exercise precedes the final date of exercise
     of the options or any of them, the Management Company shall be entitled to
     exercise the rights in respect of such convertible securities before the
     exercise of the options, provided it pays for the rights the price which by
     the terms of issue of the convertible securities is payable thereon,
     insofar as exercise thereof is conditioned upon any payment, at the time of
     the exercise of the convertible securities.

4.   PROVISIONS WITH RESPECT TO REGISTERED CAPITAL. Lipman shall retain a
     sufficient quantity of ordinary shares of NIS 1 NV in its registered
     capital, and it shall take all other measures as necessary to enable it to
     implement the provisions of the Management Contract with respect to the
     options to which the Management Company is entitled and the provisions of
     this appendix.

5.   UMPIRE. Any disagreement in the matter of the required adjustments under
     this appendix shall be decided by the CPA Umpire as hereinafter defined,
     who shall act as an umpire (and not as an arbitrator) on behalf of the
     parties and whose decision shall be final, unappealabe and uncontestable.
     The "Umpire" - Prof. Yitzhak Sawary, or if he is incapable of or prevented
     from serving as umpire for any reason, a CPA of good repute upon whose
     identity the parties shall agree, and in the absence of agreement - whoever
     is appointed in this regard by the President of the Institute of Certified
     Public Accountants in Israel.
