Even though Metalink is not currently operating any business, since it is a public company with cash reserves, we believe that Metalink will be able to leverage the benefits of being a public company with its financial resources either to acquire an operating business or to become a holding company by investing its cash reserves in other operating companies. Although not required under the federal securities laws, we are increasing our ownership interest in Metalink by way of this tender offer in order to comply with the requirements of Israeli law. According to Israeli law, we are not permitted to acquire additional Metalink shares if such acquisition would result in our percentage ownership of the voting power of Metalink exceeding either 45.0% or 25.0%, other than by means of a tender offer."

7.          The second paragraph on page 24 of the Offer to Purchase is hereby amended to state as follows:

 

"The foregoing conditions may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances giving rise to any such conditions, so long as they are material and are not caused exclusively by any action or inaction on our part, and , in the case of clause (b) above, subject to applicable law, may be waived by us in whole or in part at any time and from time to time until the Initial Completion Date (as may be extended), in each case, in the exercise of our reasonable judgment. You should be aware that, under Israeli law, we may not waive the conditions set forth in clause (a) above."
