(“PureSight-Israel”), on the other hand. Cellular
Express and BCGI-Israel are each referred to herein as a

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in Article IX.
In consideration of the representations,
warranties and covenants herein contained, the Parties agree as
follows.

this Agreement, the Buyers shall purchase from the Sellers, and the

and warrants to the Buyers that, except as set forth in the
Disclosure Schedule, the statements contained in this Article II
are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and will be
true and correct as of the Closing as though made as of the
Closing, except to the extent such representations and warranties
are specifically made as of a particular date (in which case such
representations and warranties will be
5
true and correct as of such date). The
Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in sections and subsections
corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections
contained in this Article II. The disclosures in any section or
subsection of the Disclosure Schedule shall qualify other sections
and subsections in this Article II only to the extent it is clear
from a reading of the disclosure that such disclosure is applicable
to such other sections and subsections. For purposes of this
Article II, the phrases “to the knowledge of the

phrase of similar import shall be deemed to refer to the actual
knowledge of Netta Mendelson, Royi Cohen, Ouri Azoulay and Cleve

and agents of the Sellers with respect to the matter in

corporation duly organized, validly existing and in corporate and
tax good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, and
PureSight-Israel is a company duly organized, validly existing and
in corporate and tax good standing under the laws of Israel. Each
Seller is duly qualified to conduct business and is in corporate
and tax good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction listed
next to such Seller’s name in Section 2.1 of the Disclosure
Schedule, which jurisdictions constitute the only jurisdictions in
which the nature of such Seller’s businesses or the ownership
or leasing of its properties requires such qualification. Each
Seller has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on
the businesses in which it is engaged and to own and use the
properties owned and used by it. PureSight-US has furnished to the
Buyers complete and accurate copies of its Certificate of
Incorporation and by-laws and PureSight-Israel has furnished to the
Buyers complete and accurate copies of its most recently updated
Articles of Association. Neither Seller is in default under or in
violation of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation,
by-laws or its most recently updated Articles of Association, as
the case may be.
Capitalization .
The authorized capital stock of PureSight-US
consists of (A) 18,250,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value
per share, of which, as of the date of this Agreement, 40 shares
were issued and outstanding and no shares were held in the treasury
of the Seller, and (B) 13,750,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.001
par value per share, of which (i) 1,561,224 shares have been
designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which,

1,758,991 shares have been designated as Series A1 Convertible
Preferred Stock, all of which, as of the date of this Agreement,

93,840 shares have been designated as Series A3 Convertible
Preferred Stock, all of which, as of the date of this Agreement,
were issued and outstanding and (v) one share has been designated
as Series A4 Convertible Preferred Stock, of which, as of the date
of this Agreement, one share was issued and outstanding. Section
2.2 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate
list, as of the date of this Agreement, of (i) all stockholders of
PureSight-US, indicating the number and class or series of shares
of capital stock of such Seller held by each stockholder and (for
shares other than common stock) the number of shares of common
stock (if any) into which such shares are convertible, (ii) all
outstanding options, warrants or other instruments giving any party
the right to acquire any of capital stock of such Seller,
indicating (A) the holder thereof and (B) the number and class or
series of capital stock of such Seller subject thereto and (for
shares other than common stock) the number of shares of common
stock (if any) into which such shares are convertible. There are no
outstanding agreements or commitments to which PureSight-US is a
party or which are binding upon such Seller providing for the
redemption of any of its capital stock.
The authorized capital stock of PureSight-Israel
consists of 3,600,000 ordinary shares, NIS 0.01 par value per
share, of which, as of the date of this Agreement, 153,639 shares
were issued and outstanding. All of the issued and outstanding
shares of capital stock of PureSight-Israel are held of record and
beneficially owned by PureSight-US. PureSight-Israel has never
granted any options or similar rights to purchase shares of its
capital stock to any person.
Authorization of Transaction
. Each Seller has all requisite
power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements and, subject to the Requisite Stockholder
Approval in the case of PureSight-US to perform its obligations
hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery by each Seller
of this Agreement and the performance by each Seller of this
Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the consummation by each
Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have
been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate and,
subject to the Requisite Stockholder Approval in the case of
PureSight-US, stockholder action on the part of each Seller.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Board
of
6
Directors of PureSight-US, at a meeting duly
called and held, by the unanimous vote of all directors determined
that the sale of assets contemplated by this Agreement is fair to
and in the best interests of the Seller and its stockholders,
approved this Agreement in accordance with the Delaware General
Corporation Law, directed that such asset sale be submitted to the
stockholders of such Seller for their approval, and resolved to
recommend that the stockholders of such Seller vote in favor of the
approval of such asset sale. This Agreement has been duly and
validly executed and delivered by each Seller and constitutes, and
each of the Ancillary Agreements, upon its execution and delivery
by each Seller, will constitute, a valid and binding obligation of
each Seller, enforceable against each Seller in accordance with its
respective terms.
Noncontravention . Neither the execution and delivery by either
Seller of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, nor the
consummation by either Seller of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, will (a) conflict with or violate any provision
of the Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of PureSight-US or
the Articles of Association of PureSight-Israel, (b) except as set
forth in Section 2.4(b) of the Disclosure Schedule, require on the
part of either Seller any notice to or filing with, or any permit,
authorization, consent or approval of, any Governmental Entity, (c)
except as set forth in Section 2.4(c) of the Disclosure Schedule,
conflict with, result in a breach of, constitute (with or without
due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, result in the
acceleration of obligations under, create in any party the right to
terminate, modify or cancel, or require any notice, consent or
waiver under, any contract or instrument to which either Seller is
a party or by which either Seller is bound or to which any of their
respective assets is subject, (d) result in the imposition of any
Security Interest upon any assets of either Seller or (e) violate
any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation
applicable to either Seller or any of their respective properties
or assets.
Subsidiaries . Other than PureSight-Israel, which is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of PureSight-US, neither Seller owns,
controls directly or indirectly or has any direct or indirect
equity participation or similar interest in any corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other
business association or entity.
Financial Statements . The Sellers have provided to the Buyer the
Financial Statements. The Financial Statements have been prepared
in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout
the periods covered thereby, fairly present the consolidated
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
Sellers as of the respective dates thereof and for the periods
referred to therein and are consistent with the books and records
of the Sellers; provided , however , that the
Financial Statements referred to in clause (b) of the definition of
such term are subject to normal recurring year-end adjustments
(which will not be material) and do not include
footnotes.
Absence of Certain Changes
. Since the Most Recent Balance
Sheet Date, (a) there has occurred no event or development which,
individually or in the aggregate, has had, or could reasonably be
expected to have in the future, a Seller Material Adverse Effect,
and (b) neither Seller has taken any of the actions set forth in
paragraphs (a) through (n) of Section 4.4.
Undisclosed Liabilities . Neither Seller has any liability (whether
known or unknown, whether absolute or contingent, whether
liquidated or unliquidated and whether due or to become due),
except for (a) liabilities shown on the Most Recent Balance Sheet,
(b) liabilities which have arisen since the Most Recent Balance
Sheet Date in the Ordinary Course of Business and which are
reflected on the Final Closing Balance Sheet and (c) contractual
and other liabilities incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business
which are not required by GAAP to be reflected on a balance
sheet.
Tax Matters .
Each Seller has filed on a timely basis all Tax
Returns that it was required to file, and all such Tax Returns were
complete and accurate in all material respects. Neither Seller is
or has ever been a member of a group of corporations with which it
has filed (or been required to file) consolidated, combined or
unitary Tax Returns, other than a group of which only the Sellers
are or were members. Each Seller has paid on a timely basis all
Taxes that were due and payable. The unpaid Taxes of the Sellers
for tax periods through the Most Recent Balance Sheet Date do not
exceed the accruals and reserves for Taxes (excluding accruals and
reserves for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing
differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the Most
Recent Balance Sheet. Neither Seller has any actual or potential

affiliated group of corporations or other entities that included
the Sellers during a prior period) other than the Sellers. All

collect have been duly withheld or collected and, to the extent
required, have been paid to the proper Governmental
Entity.

the Internal Revenue Service or are closed by the applicable
statute of limitations for all taxable years through the taxable
year specified in Section 2.9(b) of the Disclosure Schedule. The
Sellers have delivered or made available to the Buyer complete and
accurate copies of all other Tax Returns of either Seller together
with all related examination reports and statements of deficiency
for all periods from and after December 31, 2001. No examination or
audit of any Tax Return of either Seller by any Governmental Entity
is currently in progress, nor are the Sellers aware of any such
examination or audit being threatened or contemplated. Neither
Seller has been informed by any jurisdiction that the jurisdiction
believes that either Seller was required to file any Tax Return
that was not filed. Neither Seller has waived any statute of
limitations with respect to Taxes or agreed to an extension of time
with respect to a Tax assessment or deficiency.

under, any such Lease, and no event has occurred, is pending or, to

knowledge of the Sellers, any other party under such
Lease;
there are no disputes, oral agreements or
forbearance programs in effect as to such Lease;
