relationship between the parties which would entitle either party to
receive a share of the other party's earnings or profits.

without limitation, overhead costs and expenses and the salaries,
wages and employee benefit payments paid in respect of the manager and
other employees of TopTier, reasonably and properly incurred by
TopTier in the performance of the services to be provided by it

rate prevailing at the end of each calendar month and as reported as

(b) An amount by way of profit which shall be such amount as may from time
to time be mutually agreed upon by TopTier and TTI and which, until
otherwise so agreed upon, shall be an amount equal to five percent of

such requests to the extent practicable under Israel's foreign
exchange regulations then applicable.

request during the period this Agreement is effective. TopTier agrees
to keep all information disclosed by such review confidential and
shall disclose that information only to those employees of TopTier
who have a need to know.
(7) TopTier shall cause all necessary and proper action to be taken in order
to obtain all governmental approvals and licenses from the Israel foreign
exchange, tax and other governmental authorities which may be required in
order for TopTier to perform the services to be performed by them
hereunder and to receive the service fee from TTI provided for in
Paragraph (5) hereof.
(8) TopTier shall cause to be paid all taxes and other duties or assessments
which may be levied by any governmental authority with respect to the
services to be performed by TopTier pursuant to this Agreement and/or on
the service fees accruing and payable to TopTier pursuant to this
Agreement.

terminated in the event that either party (a) becomes subject or party to
proceedings in bankruptcy, winding-up or liquidation or to litigation
which may lead to bankruptcy, winding-up or liquidation, (b) makes an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or (c) contravenes any one
or more of the provisions hereof.
In addition, TTI may elect to terminate this agreement immediately, upon
written notice to TopTier if TopTier engages in activities which, in the
opinion of TTI, are detrimental to the interests of TTI.
(11) Neither this Agreement nor any of the respective rights or obligations of
the parties hereto shall be assignable in whole or in part without the
consent in writing of the other party hereto, and such consent may be
withheld wholly within the discretion of such other party.

exclusive statement of the terms of the parties' agreement, supersedes
