Exhibit 1
Arbitration
Proceeding between Elop and Rafael
Haifa, Israel – September 25,
2007 – Elbit Systems Ltd. (Nasdaq ESLT) announced that as a result of an arbitration
proceeding initiated by its subsidiary Elbit Systems Electro-Optics Elop Ltd. (Elop), that
filed a claim against Rafael Armaments Development Authorities Ltd. (Rafael) in an amount
of approximately $55 million, Rafael has filed a counterclaim in the arbitration proceeding
in the amount of approximately $14 million. Elop filed the arbitration claim against Rafael
for damages and breach of contract relating to a subcontract under which Rafael was a
subcontractor to Elop.
Based upon a preliminary review of
the counterclaim, Elbit Systems management does not believe this matter will have a
material adverse impact on its results of operations.
