Each Purchaser represents and warrants to, and covenants and agrees with, the
Company as follows (except that Xxxx Xxxx is not making the representation
set out in b. below):
a. The Purchaser is purchasing the Units and will be acquiring the Ordinary
Shares issuable upon conversion of, and in lieu of interest payments on,
the Debentures and upon exercise of the Warrants for its own account, for
investment purposes only and not with a view towards the public sale or
distribution thereof and not with a view to or for sale in connection with
any distribution thereof;
b. The Purchaser is (i) an "accredited investor," as that term is defined in
Rule 501 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act,

and financial experience of its officers (if an entity) and professional
advisors, to protect its own interests in connection with the transactions

afford the entire loss of its investment in the Units;
c. All subsequent offers and sales of the Debentures or the Warrants and the
Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise of, or in lieu of
interest payments on, the Debentures, or upon exercise of the Warrants
shall be made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration;
d. The Purchaser understands that the Units are being offered and sold to it
in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements of the
United States federal and state securities laws, and that the Company is
relying upon the truth and accuracy of the Purchaser's representations and
warranties, and the Purchaser's compliance with its agreements, each as set
forth herein, in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and
the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the Units;
e. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all
materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company
and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Units which have been
requested by such Purchaser. The Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have
been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the Company, and have
received answers to any such inquiries to their satisfaction.
f. The Purchaser acknowledges that it has been furnished with or has acquired
copies of the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F (the "1999 Annual
Report") filed with the Commission for year ended December 31, 1999, and
each Form 6-K filed thereafter until the date hereof and the Proxy
Statement of the Company dated July 31, 2000 (the "Offering Materials").
The Purchaser is not relying upon any representations or
2
other information (whether oral or written) other than as set forth in this
Agreement, and the Offering Materials.
g. The Purchaser acknowledges that in making its decision to purchase the
Units, it has relied upon independent investigations made by it and its
representatives, if any, and the Purchaser and such representatives, if
any, have been provided access and the opportunity to examine all material,
publicly available books and records of the Company, all material contracts

questions and to receive answers from the Company or persons acting on its
behalf concerning the terms and conditions of this offering. The Purchaser

answers to any such inquiries which they have deemed to be satisfactory.
h. The Purchaser understands that no federal or state agency has passed on or
made any recommendation or endorsement of the Units.
i. Among the risks associated with an investment by the Purchaser in the Units
are: (1) the Company's limited access to additional capital, (2) risks
associated with technology-based companies generally, including the risks
of technological change and new products, and (3) the limited trading
market of the Ordinary Shares, and the consequent lack of liquidity of an
investment in the Debentures and the Warrants. In addition, the Purchasers
acknowledge that they are aware that StoreAge Networks Ltd ("StoreAge") is
a start-up high-tech company and that the shares held by the Company in
StoreAge are the Company's only material asset; in the event that the
Company does not obtain significant cash for its shares in StoreAge, the
Company may not be able to repay the principal amount of the Debentures,
and the Purchasers could lose their entire investment. In addition, the
Purchasers acknowledge that the Company has not made any representations to
the Purchasers as to the prospects of success of StoreAge. In addition, the
Purchaser acknowledges that the transfer of the shares of StoreAge held by
the Company are subject to certain restrictions on transfer and, to the
extent relevant, the Purchaser undertakes to comply with such restrictions.

registration; (2) any sale of the Securities made in reliance upon Rule 144
under the Securities Act may be made only in accordance with the terms of
said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of the
Securities under circumstances in which the seller, or the person through
whom the sale is made, may be deemed to be an underwriter, as that term is
used in the Securities Act, may require compliance with another exemption
under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder; and (3) neither the Company nor any other person is under any
obligation to register the Securities (other than pursuant to the
Registration Rights Agreement) under the Securities Act or to comply with

issuable upon conversion of the Debentures, or upon exercise of the
Warrants shall have been registered under the Securities Act as
contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement and sold in accordance
with such Registration Statement, such securities shall bear a restrictive
legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may

in connection with the sale of the Units to each Purchaser as required by
Israeli and/or United States laws and regulations, or by any domestic

Commission), and to provide copies thereof to the Purchaser promptly after
such filing or filings.

and, except in connection with an acquisition transaction in which at least
50% of the Company's voting equity securities are acquired by another

file reports under the Exchange Act even if the Exchange Act or the rules
and regulations thereunder would permit such termination.
f. Use of Proceeds. The Company has used the proceeds from the issuance of
the Units (excluding amounts paid by the Company for legal fees and

Ordinary Shares to provide for the conversion of the Debentures and the
exercise of the Warrants.
The number of Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance by the Company upon
conversion of the Debentures or upon exercise of the Warrants shall at all
times be allocated pro rata among the Purchasers based upon the aggregate
purchase price of the Units purchased by each Purchaser, and no Purchaser
may at any time convert its Debentures or exercise Warrants so as to obtain
a greater number of Ordinary Shares than its pro rata allocation of the
Company's reserved Ordinary Shares. In the event that a Purchaser shall
sell or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, any of its Securities
(except for Ordinary Shares of the Company subject to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act or otherwise freely
tradable by such Purchaser), each transferee shall, for purposes of
determining such transferee's allocation of the Company's reserved Ordinary
Shares, be allocated a pro rata portion of the initial purchase price paid
by the Transferor upon its purchase of the Units.

in the event that the Purchasers hold (together) at least five percent (5%)
of the Company's issued and outstanding share capital, the Purchasers shall
be entitled to appoint one (1) director to the Board of Directors of the
Company. In addition, as long as the Debentures remain unpaid, the
Purchasers (as a group) will have the right to appoint an observer to the
Board of Directors of the Company. The observer will have the right to
participate in the meetings of the Board of Directors, with no right to
vote.

5. TRANSFER AGENT INSTRUCTIONS.
a. The Company warrants that no instruction other than the instructions
referred to in this Section 5 and stop transfer instructions to give effect
to Sections 4(a) and 4(b) hereof prior to the registration and sale of the
Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures, or upon
exercise of the Warrants under the Securities Act will be given by the
Company to the transfer agent and that such Ordinary Shares shall otherwise
be freely transferable on the books and records of the Company as and to
the extent provided in this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement,
and applicable law. Nothing in this Section shall affect in any way the
Purchaser's obligations and agreement to comply with all applicable
securities laws upon resale of the Securities. If a Purchaser provides the
Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company
that registration of a resale by the Purchaser of any of the Securities in
accordance with clause (1)(B) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement is not
required under the Securities Act, the Company shall (except as provided in
clause (2) of Section 4(a) of this Agreement) permit the transfer of the
Securities and, in the case of the Ordinary Shares, promptly instruct the
Company's transfer agent to issue one or more certificates for Ordinary
Shares without legend in such names and in such denominations as specified
by the Purchaser.

Debentures or to exercise the Warrants by faxing an executed and completed
Notice of Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase, as applicable, to the
Company, and delivering within three (3) business days thereafter, the
original Notice of Conversion (and the related original Debentures) or Form
of Election to Purchase (and the related original Warrants) to the Company
by express courier, duly endorsed. Each date on which a Notice of
Conversion or Form of Election to Purchase is received by the Company in
accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a "Conversion Date."
The Company will transmit the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares
issuable upon conversion of any Debentures or upon exercise of any Warrants
(together with the Debentures not so converted, or the Warrants not so
exercised) to such Purchaser via express courier or by electronic transfer,
as soon as practicable thereafter (but in all events within three (3)
business days), after receipt by the Company of the original Notice of
Conversion (and the related original Debentures) or the original Form of
Election to Purchase (and the related original Warrants) to be converted
(the "Delivery Date"). For purposes of this Agreement, such conversion of
the Debentures or exercise of the Warrants shall be deemed to have been
made immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date.
c. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Ordinary
Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Debentures or exercise of the
Warrants, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the
Depositary Trust company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer
program, on the written request of a Purchaser who shall have previously
instructed such Purchaser's prime broker to confirm such request to the
Company's transfer agent, the Company shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit such
Ordinary Shares to the Purchaser by crediting the account of the
Purchaser's prime broker with DTC through its Deposit
10
Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system no later than the applicable
Delivery Date.

herein, the Company shall reimburse such Purchasers for any out-of-pocket
expenses reasonably incurred by such in making preparations for the purchase,
sale and delivery of the Units not so delivered, without derogating from any
other remedy available to the Purchasers under these circumstances.
