Item 4. Description of Securities.

        Not applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Insurance for Office Holders

        The Israeli Companies Law provides that a company may, if permitted by its articles of association, enter into a contract for the insurance of the liability of any of its office holders arising from their acts or omissions in such capacity which constitute any of the following:

  a breach of the office holder's duty of care to the company or to another person;

a breach of the office holder’s duty of loyalty to the company, provided that the office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable grounds to assume that his act would not prejudice the company’s interests; and

  a monetary liability imposed upon the office holder in favor of another person.

S-84th “Page” of 8TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 4th

        Our articles of association permit us to purchase insurance covering the liability of our office holders in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law as currently in effect.

        Our officers and directors are covered by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of Internet Gold -Golden Lines Ltd., our parent company, that provides coverage of not more than $5 million per claim and in the aggregate per year.

Exemption of Office Holders

        The Israeli Companies Law provides that a company cannot exempt an office holder from liability with respect to a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the company. If permitted by its articles of association, a company may, in advance, grant an exemption to an office holder from his or her liability to the company with respect to a breach of the officer holder’s duty of care. However, a company may not grant an exemption in advance to a director from his or her liability to the company with respect to a breach of his or her duty of care in the event of a distribution.

        Our articles of association permit us to exempt our office holders in accordance with the Israeli Companies Law as currently in effect.

Indemnification of Office Holders

        The Israeli Companies Law provides that a company may, if permitted by its articles of association, indemnify an office holder for liabilities or expenses imposed on him or her, or incurred by him or her concerning acts or omissions performed by the office holder in such capacity for:

  a monetary liability imposed on the office holder in favor of another person by any judgment, including a settlement or an arbitrator's award approved by a court;

  reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred by the office holder as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against him or her by a competent authority, provided that such investigation or proceeding concluded without any indictment filed against the office holder and without any monetary liability imposed on the office holder in lieu of criminal proceedings, or concluded without an indictment against the office holder but with the imposition of a monetary liability on the office holder in lieu of criminal proceedings with respect to a criminal offense that does not require proof of criminal intent; and

reasonable litigation expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the office holder or which were imposed on him or her by a court, in an action instituted by the company or on the company’s behalf, or by another person, against the office holder, or in a criminal charge from which the office holder was acquitted, or in a criminal proceeding in which the office holder was convicted of a criminal offense which does not require proof of criminal intent.

        The indemnification provisions in a company’s articles of association may include:

a provision allowing the company to undertake in advance to indemnify an office holder, except that with respect to a monetary liability imposed on the office holder by any judgment, settlement or court-approved arbitration award, the undertaking must be limited to types of events which the company’s board of directors deems foreseeable considering the company’s actual operations at the time of the undertaking, and to an amount or standard that the board of directors has determined as reasonable under the circumstances; and

  a provision allowing the company to retroactively indemnify an office holder.

4



S-85th “Page” of 8TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th

Our articles of association allow us to indemnify our office holders to the fullest extent permitted by law, subject to the provisions of the Israeli Companies Law. Our articles of association provide that an indemnification undertaking may be given in advance or retroactively, provided that an undertaking given in advance will be restricted to types of events that our board of directors deems foreseeable considering our company’s operations at the time of the undertaking, and in an amount or standard that our board of directors deems reasonable under the circumstances. We have undertaken to indemnify our directors and officers to the extent permitted by law, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5 million, to the extent that their liability is not covered under our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy.

Limitations on Insurance, Exemption and Indemnification

        The Israeli Companies Law provides that neither a provision of the articles of association permitting the company to enter into a contract to insure the liability of an office holder, nor a provision in the articles of association or a resolution of the board of directors permitting the indemnification of an office holder, nor a provision in the articles of association exempting an office holder from duty to the company shall be valid, where such insurance, indemnification or exemption relates to any of the following:

a breach by the office holder of his duty of loyalty, except with respect to insurance coverage or indemnification if the office holder acted in good faith and had reasonable grounds to assume that the act would not prejudice the company;

a breach by the office holder of his duty of care if such breach was committed intentionally or recklessly, unless the breach was committed only negligently;

  any act or omission committed with intent to derive an unlawful personal gain; and

  any fine or forfeiture imposed on the office holder.

        In addition, pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, exemption of, procurement of insurance coverage for, an undertaking to indemnify or indemnification of an office holder must be approved by the audit committee and the board of directors and, if such office holder is a director or a controlling shareholder or a relative of the controlling shareholder, also by the shareholders general meeting.

  (1) Filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, registration number 333-146645, filed with the Commission on October 12, 2007, and incorporated herein by reference.

  (2) Filed as Exhibit 4.2 to the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Amendment No. 3 to Form F-1, registration number 333-146645, filed with the Commission on October 26, 2007, and incorporated herein by reference.

  (3) Filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Amendment No. 3 to Form F-1, registration number 333-146645, filed with the Commission on October 26, 2007, and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9. Undertakings.

    (a)        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)        To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);

  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement;

  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

          provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2)        That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bonafide offering thereof.

(3)        To remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

    (b)        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

    (c)        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
