The decision to exercise options reflects Mr. Dahan and Mrs. Lavi's confidence and commitment to XLMedia and they will not be selling shares as part of the transaction.

Following the exercise of Mrs. Lavi's Options, Mrs. Lavi holds 495,372 shares representing 0.22% of the Company's existing issued share capital.

The exercise of the Options is being satisfied by the transfer of shares from the Tamir Fishman Trusts 2004 Ltd ("Tamir Fishman"), the appointed trustee for the Company's Global Share Incentive Plan. Following the transfer of shares Tamir Fishman holds 4,600,247 ordinary shares in the Company representing 2.09% of the Company's issued share capital.

Following the exercise of the Options the total number of Ordinary Shares in the Company remains at 220,352,402 and this is the figure which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company, under the Disclosure and Transparency Rules set out in the Company's articles of association.
