Concurrently with the closing of the private placement, Mr. Goldstein sold all of his 2,000,000 Shares to FIMGold LP for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000,000. The purchase price per share of the Shares was $15.00, which was the approximate closing price per share of the Shares on the NASDAQ National Market and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange on December 28, 2004, the date on which an agreement in principal was reached. In addition, Mr. Goldstein concurrently sold to FIMGold LP all of his 15,500,000 ordinary shares in Formula Vision Technologies (F.V.T.) Ltd.

Such actions could include, among other things, either acquiring or disposing of the Shares, in whole or in part, at any time, subject to applicable laws.
