8.3.1 At any time during the Option Term, the Sellers (jointly and not
severally), may serve notice in writing to the Purchaser,
requiring the Purchaser to purchase (the "PUT OPTION") the Option
Shares. The Put Option (or the accelerated Put Option) may be
exercised by the Sellers on one occasion during the Option Term,
in full and not in part. The consideration for the Option Shares
subject to the Put Option shall be calculated and paid in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2 hereof governing
the Call Option.
8.3.2 The closing of the Put Option (or the Accelerated Put Option (as
defined below), if applicable) shall be subject to Seller's
provision as of such closing, of the representations and
warranties of Sections 3 and 5 hereof, with respect to the Option

Option, as of the closing of such Call Option, subject to such

8.5 ACCELERATED OPTION.
8.5.1 It is expressly agreed, that in the event that the Company
issues any ordinary shares or preferred shares or any other kind
of shares of the Company, whether now or hereafter authorized
(including as a result of the exercise or conversion, as the case
may be, of rights, options, or warrants to purchase ordinary
shares or preferred shares, or securities convertible into
ordinary shares or preferred shares of the Company) to any third
party, except for issuances as a result of: (i) conversion of any
warrants or notes outstanding as of the date hereof, or (ii) the
exercise of any options by former or existing employees or
consultants of the Company (the "TRIGGERING EVENT"), then, at
Sellers' sole discretion, Sellers may notify the Purchaser that
the Option Term (with respect to the Put Option only) shall be
deemed to commence upon such Triggering Event, and extend for a
period of 12 months thereafter (the "ACCELERATED PUT OPTION").
Sellers shall notify the Purchaser of the election to accelerate
the Put Option promptly upon their being aware of the appropriate
circumstances, and in any event no later than 7 business days
before the Triggering Event. Unless so notified by Sellers, the
provisions of this Section 8.5 shall NOT apply.
8.5.2 The consideration to be paid by the Purchaser for the
Accelerated Put Option shall equal the relevant Company Valuation
(as set forth in Section 8.5.3 below) divided by the number of
Company Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Triggering Event, multiplied by the number of Accelerated Put
Option Shares.
8.5.3 In the event the Triggering Event occurs after to the end of
2006, the Company Valuation shall be calculated in accordance
with Section 8.2(a) above. If, however, the Triggering Event
occurs prior to the end of 2006, than the Company Valuation shall
be the higher of (i) $4,500,000 or (ii) Company Valuation to be
calculated in accordance with Section 8.2(a) above but on the
basis of the Deemed Projected Results (defined below) and not of
Projected Results.
The term "DEEMED PROJECTED RESULTS" shall mean three (3) times
the aggregate revenues received during the twelve (12) month
period immediately prior to the Triggering Event
8.6 Notwithstanding anything else herein, in the event the Company total
pre-tax profits for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006 are, in the
aggregate, below 5% of the Minimum Projected Results (defined below),
then the Put Option shall immediately expire with no further force and
effect. The term "MINIMUM PROJECTED RESULTS" shall mean Projected
Results in an amount of Two Hundred and Thirty Million NIS (NIS
230,000,000), or in the event of Accelerated Put Option, shall mean
Deemed Projected Results in an amount of Two Hundred and Thirty
Million NIS (NIS 230,000,000).
