INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

CONTENTS

Material Increase in Financial Income
The Registrant expects to recognize, in the third quarter of 2009, a material increase in financial income resulting mainly from the $18.5 million cash settlement of the Registrant’s arbitration claim related to its auction rate security. Prior to the third quarter of 2009, the Registrant had recognized write-downs in income in the aggregate amount of $20.2 million related to this security. This cash injection will significantly strengthen the Registrant’s cash position, which amounted to $11.8 million as of June 30, 2009.

Dividend Distribution
The Registrant’s Board of Directors today authorized the necessary steps, including applying for the requisite court approval, to enable the distribution of a cash dividend in the amount of $0.80 per share, or approximately $15 million in the aggregate. Under Israeli law, a company with insufficient retained earnings is required to obtain approval from the court for such a distribution. The Registrant expects to obtain such court approval within eight to twelve weeks, although there is no guarantee that such approval will not be delayed or denied. Prior to paying the dividend, the Registrant will issue a press release announcing the record date and distribution date.

In July 2003, the Board of Directors adopted the Registrant’s current dividend policy. The Registrant has since distributed dividends six times and intends to continue to distribute cash dividends based on factors that include its cash position and activities.
