(u)       Books and Record Internal Accounting Controls. The books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries accurately reflect in all material respects the information relating to the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, the location and collection of their assets, and the nature of all transactions giving rise to the obligations or accounts receivable of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient, in the judgment of the Company, to provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the certifying officers by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act is being prepared. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the most recent periodic reporting period under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”).

(d)       Acquisition for Investment. The Purchaser is acquiring the Securities solely for its own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for sale in connection with distribution in violation of applicable securities laws. The Purchaser does not have a present intention to sell the Securities, nor a present arrangement (whether or not legally binding) or intention to effect any distribution of the Securities to or through any person or entity in violation of applicable securities laws; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, the Purchaser does not agree to hold the Securities for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Securities at any time in accordance with Federal and state securities laws applicable to such disposition. The Purchaser acknowledges that it is able to bear the financial risks associated with an investment in the Securities and that it has been given full access to such records of the Company and the Subsidiaries and to the officers of the Company and the Subsidiaries and received such information as it has deemed necessary or appropriate to conduct its due diligence investigation and has sufficient knowledge and experience in investing in companies similar to the Company in terms of the Company’s stage of development so as to be able to evaluate the risks and merits of its investment in the Company.

(e)       Status of Purchaser. The Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and the Purchaser is not a broker-dealer.

The Purchaser acknowledges that such Purchaser has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from, or obtain additional information from, the executive officers of the Company concerning the financial and other affairs of the Company, and to the extent deemed necessary in light of the Purchaser’s personal knowledge of the Company’s affairs, the Purchaser has asked such questions and received answers to the full satisfaction of the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to invest in the Company.
 
(g)       No General Solicitation. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Securities were not offered to the Purchaser by means of any form of general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which the Purchaser was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.
 
(h)       Rule 144.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the Purchaser is familiar with Rule 144 of the rules and regulations of the Commission, as amended, promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), and that the Purchaser has been advised that Rule 144 permits resales only under certain circumstances. The Purchaser understands that to the extent that Rule 144 is not available, the Purchaser will be unable to sell any Securities without either registration under the Securities Act or the existence of another exemption from such registration requirement.

 
-14-
 

(i)       General. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirement of Federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of the Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of the Purchaser to acquire the Securities.
 
(j)       Short Sales. Purchaser has not, during the last thirty (30) days prior to the date hereof, directly or indirectly, nor has any party acting on behalf of or pursuant to any understanding with the Purchaser, effected or agreed to effect any short sale, whether or not against the box, established any “put equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16(a)-1(h) under the Exchange Act) with respect to any security of the Company, granted any other right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any security of the Company or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from any security of the Company or otherwise sought to hedge its positioning of the Company’s securities.  The Purchaser shall not, and shall cause any affiliates not to, engage, directly or indirectly, in any transactions in the securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any short sales) involving the Company’s securities during the period from the date hereof until six months from the date hereof. The Purchaser understands and acknowledges, that the Commission currently takes the position that covering a short position established prior to effectiveness of a resale registration statement with shares included in such registration statement would be a violation of Section 5 of the Securities Act, as set forth in Item 65, Section 5 under Section A, of the Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, dated July 1997, compiled by the Office of Chief Counsel, Division of Corporation Finance

ARTICLE V
Stock Certificate Legend
 
Section 5.1                      Legend. Each certificate representing the Note, the Warrant and the Shares, and, if appropriate, the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise thereof, shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS A COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE ACT HAS BEEN MADE OR UNLESS AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, WHICH WILL REQUIRE A WRITTEN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES THAT REMOVAL OF THIS RESTRICTIVE LEGEND IS IN ALL MANNER PROPER AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT.
 
The Company agrees to reissue certificates representing any of the Warrant Shares or the Shares without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such securities, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request. Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Warrant Shares or the Shares under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid exemption exists with respect thereto. The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within five (5) business days. In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company. The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant Shares or the Shares is required to be issued to a Purchaser without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Warrant Shares or the Shares (provided that a registration statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Shares and Warrant Shares is then in effect), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Shares or Shares to a Purchaser by crediting the account of the Purchaser or the Purchaser's Prime Broker with the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI
Indemnification
 
Section 6.1                      General Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser (and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Purchaser as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein.

Section 6.2                      Indemnification Procedure. Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an “indemnified party”) will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. In case any action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnified party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnifying party may exist with respect of such action, proceeding or claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. In the event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim. In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party’s costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder. The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim. The indemnification required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party irrevocably agrees to refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification. The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.

4.           Adjustment for Dividends, Distributions, Subdivisions, Combinations, Mergers, Consolidations or Sale of Assets
 
4.1           Manner of Adjustment.
 
(a)           Stock Dividends, Distributions or Subdivisions.  In the event the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock in a stock dividend, stock distribution or subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately before such stock dividend, stock distribution or subdivision shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such stock dividend, stock distribution or subdivision, be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable by exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased.
 
(b)           Combinations or Consolidations.  In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination or consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such combination or consolidation, be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable by exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased.
 
(c)           Adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange or Substitution.  In the event that the class of securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than any event addressed by Sections 4.1(a), 4.1(b) or 4.1(d)), then and in each such event the Holder shall have the right thereafter to exercise this Warrant for the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reorganization, reclassification, or other change, by holders of the number of shares of the class of securities into which such Warrant might have been exercisable for immediately prior to such reorganization, reclassification, or change, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

 
-36-
 
 
(d)           Adjustment for Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.  In the event that the Company shall merge or consolidate with or into another entity or sell all of its assets, this Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable for the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth in this Section 4 with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Holder of this Warrant, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 4 shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

(e)               Adjustment for Spin-off of Subsidiary,  In the event that the Company engages in a spinoff of a material subsidiary by way of distributing a dividend to all holders of its Common Stock, which results in a material reduction of the Company’s book value per share, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be proportionately reduced.

4.2           Certificate as to Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 4, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. 
 
4.3           Closing of Books.  The Company shall at no time close its transfer books against the transfer of any shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely and proper issuance of such shares.
 
5.      Limitation on Exercise.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the number of Warrant Shares that may be acquired by the Holder upon any exercise of this Warrant (or otherwise in respect hereof) shall be limited to the extent necessary to insure that, following such exercise (or other issuance), the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by such Holder and its affiliates and any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), does not exceed 19.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (including for such purpose the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise).  For such purposes, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.     

6.         Covenants of the Company.  During the period within which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have authorized and reserved for the purpose of issue upon exercise of the rights evidenced hereby, a sufficient number of shares of the class of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant to provide for the exercise of such rights.  All securities which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.  Upon surrender for exercise, this Warrant shall be canceled and shall not be reissued;  provided, however, that upon the partial exercise hereof a substitute Warrant of like tenor and date representing the rights to subscribe for and purchase any such unexercised portion hereof shall be issued.

 
-37-
 
 
7.           No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise.  This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company but upon presentation of this Warrant with the Exercise Notice duly executed and the tender of payment of the Exercise Price at the office of the Company pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, the Holder shall forthwith be deemed a stockholder of the Company in respect of the securities for which the Holder has so subscribed and paid.
 
8.           No Change Necessary.  The form of this Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment in the Exercise Price or in the number of shares issuable upon its exercise.  A Warrant issued after any adjustment or any partial exercise or upon replacement may continue to express the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares (appropriately reduced in the case of partial exercise) as are stated on this Warrant as initially issued, and that Exercise Price and that number of shares shall be considered to have been so changed as of the close of business on the date of adjustment.
 
9.           Addresses for Notices.  All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing, either delivered in hand or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or sent by facsimile, and shall be deemed to have been duly made when delivered:
 
If to the Holder, to the Holder’s address as shown on the books of the Company; or
 
If to the Company, to the address set forth on the first page of this Warrant.
 
10.           Substitution.  In the case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue a new Warrant of like tenor and denomination and deliver the same (a) in exchange and substitution for and upon surrender and cancellation of any mutilated Warrant, or (b) in lieu of any Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, or destruction of such Warrant (including, without limitation, a reasonably detailed affidavit with respect to the circumstances of any loss, theft or destruction), and of indemnity (or, in the case of the initial Holder or any other institutional holder, an indemnity agreement) satisfactory to the Company.
 
11.           Transfer Restrictions.  This Warrant shall not be transferable by the Holder and shall be exercisable only by the Holder.  Without the prior written consent of the Company, the Warrant shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.  Any attempted transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Warrant or of any rights granted hereunder contrary to the provisions of this Section 10, or the levy of any attachment or similar process upon the Warrant or such rights, shall be null and void.

 
-38-
 
  
12.           Taxes.  The Company makes no representation about tax treatment to the Holder with respect to receipt or exercise of the Warrant or acquiring, holding or disposing of the Warrant Shares, and the Holder represents that the Holder has had the opportunity to discuss such treatment with the Holder’s tax advisers.
 
13.           Remedies.  Each party stipulates that the remedies at law in the event of any default or threatened default by the other party in the performance or compliance with any of the terms of this Warrant may not be adequate, and that such terms may be specifically enforced by a decree for that specific performance of any agreement contained herein or by an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or otherwise.
 
14.           Governing Law.  This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the State of New York without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.
 
15.           Miscellaneous.  This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the Holder and the Company.

Re:  Xfone, Inc.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
Reference is made to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated effective as of March 23, 2010, by and among Xfone, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and Burlingame Equity Investors, LP (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company is issuing to the Purchaser a 10% Promissory Note (the “Note”), a Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 950,0000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Warrant”) and 2,173,913 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”). This letter shall serve as our irrevocable authorization and direction to you (provided that you are the transfer agent of the Company at such time) to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant (the “Warrant Shares”) to or upon the order of the Purchaser from time to time upon (i) surrender to you of a properly completed and duly executed Exercise Notice as the case may be, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I, (ii) the Warrant; and (iii) delivery of a treasury order or other appropriate order duly executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company. So long as you have previously received (x) written confirmation from counsel to the Company that a registration statement covering resales of the Warrant Shares or Shares, as applicable, has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and no subsequent notice by the Company or its counsel of the suspension or termination of its effectiveness and (y) a copy of such registration statement, and if the Purchaser represents in writing that the Warrant Shares or the Shares, as the case may be, were sold pursuant to the Registration Statement, then certificates representing the Warrant Shares and the Shares, as the case may be, shall not bear any legend restricting transfer of the Warrant Shares and the Shares, as the case may be, thereby and should not be subject to any stop-transfer restriction. Provided, however, that if you have not previously received those items and representations listed above, then the certificates for the Warrant Shares and the Shares shall bear the following legend:
 
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS A COMPLIANCE WITH THE REGISTRATION PROVISIONS OF THE ACT HAS BEEN MADE OR UNLESS AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION PROVISIONS HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED, OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES, IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, WHICH WILL REQUIRE A WRITTEN OPINION OF LEGAL COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THE SECURITIES THAT REMOVAL OF THIS RESTRICTIVE LEGEND IS IN ALL MANNER PROPER AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT”

 
-41-
 
 
and, provided further, that the Company may from time to time notify you to place stop-transfer restrictions on the certificates for the Warrant Shares and the Shares in the event a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares and the Shares is subject to amendment for events then current.
 
A form of written confirmation from counsel to the Company that a registration statement covering resales of the Warrant Shares and the Shares has been declared effective by the SEC under the 1933 Act is attached hereto as Exhibit III.
 
Please be advised that the Purchaser is relying upon this letter as an inducement to enter into the Purchase Agreement and, accordingly, the Purchaser is a third party beneficiary to these instructions.
 
Please execute this letter in the space indicated to acknowledge your agreement to act in accordance with these instructions. Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact me at xxx@xxxxx.xxx.

Re:  Xfone, Inc.
 
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
We are special counsel to Xfone, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and have represented the Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated effective as of March 23, 2010, by and between the Company and Burlingame Equity Investors, LP (“Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Purchaser a 10% promissory note (the “Note”), a Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 950,0000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Warrant”) and 2,173,913 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has also agreed to grant the Purchaser certain Registration Rights. In connection with the Company’s obligations under the Agreement, on ________________, 200_, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form [S-1] [S-3] (File No. 333-________) (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the resale of the Registrable Securities which names the Purchaser as a selling stockholder thereunder.
 
In connection with the foregoing, we advise you that a member of the SEC’s staff has advised us by telephone that the SEC has entered an order declaring the Registration Statement effective under the 1933 Act at [ENTER TIME OF EFFECTIVENESS] on [ENTER DATE OF EFFECTIVENESS] and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry of a member of the SEC’s staff, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before, or threatened by, the SEC and accordingly, the Registrable Securities are available for resale under the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL


1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets, and to carry on its business as presently conducted. The Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, which the failure to so qualify could have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

2.  Each of the Subsidiaries of the Company (the “Subsidiaries”) is a corporation, duly organized and in good standing under the laws of their respective states of incorporation.

3. The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and, as applicable, to issue the Securities. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no further consent or authorization of any Issuer or its board of directors or stockholders is required. Each of the Transaction Documents have been duly executed and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuers enforceable against it in accordance with its respective terms. The Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant is not subject to any preemptive rights under the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws.

4. The Note, the Warrant and the Shares have been duly authorized and, when delivered against payment in full upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Warrant Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance, and, when delivered upon exercise or payment in full as provided in the Warrant will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

5. The execution, delivery and performance of and compliance with the terms of the Transaction Documents and the issuance of the Note, the Warrant, the Shares and the Warrant Shares do not (i) violate any provision of the Articles or Bylaws or governing documentation of the Company, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any material agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company is a party, (iii) create or impose a lien, charge or encumbrance on any property of the Company under any agreement or any commitment to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or by which any of its respective properties or assets are bound, or (iv) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction or decree (including Federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or by which any of its property or assets is bound or affected, except, in all cases other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) and (iv) above, for such conflicts, default, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

 
-45-
 

6. No consent, approval or authorization of or designation, declaration or filing with any governmental authority on the part of the Company is required under Federal, state or local law, rule or regulation in connection with the valid execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, or the offer, sale or issuance of the Note, the Warrant, the Shares or the Warrant Shares, except that the NYSE AMEX LLC and Tel Aviv Stock Exchange must approve an additional listing application covering the Shares and the Warrant Shares.
.
7. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding pending or threatened against the Company which questions the validity of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, claim, investigation or proceeding pending, or to our knowledge, threatened, against or involving any Issuer or any of its properties or assets and which, if adversely determined, is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding orders, judgments, injunctions, awards or decrees of any court, arbitrator or governmental or regulatory body against any Issuer or any officers or directors of any Issuer in their capacities as such.

8. Based upon the representations of the Purchaser, the offer, issuance and sale of the Note, the Warrant and the Shares, and the offer, issuance and sale of the shares of the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and the Warrant, as applicable, are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

9. The Company is not, and as a result of and immediately upon the applicable Closing the Company will not be, an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Schedule 2.1(o)


Xxxxxxx Xxxx et al. vs. 012 Telecom Ltd. et al.

On January 19, 2010, Xxxxxxx Xxxx et al. (the “Petitioners”) filed a request to approve a claim as a class action (the “Class Action Request”) against Xfone 018 Ltd. ("Xfone 018"), a 69% owned Israel based subsidiary of the Company and four other Israeli telecom companies, all of which are entities unrelated to the Company (collectively, the “Defendants”), in the District Court in Petach Tikva, Israel (the “Israeli Court”).  The Petitioners’ claim alleges that the Defendants do not fully fulfill their alleged legal requirement to bear the cost of telephone calls by consumers to the Defendants’ respective technical support numbers. One of the Petitioners seeks damages for the cost such telephone calls allegedly made by him since 2004, assessed by him at NIS 54.45. The Class Action Request, to the extent it pertains to Xfone 018, stated total damages of NIS 7,500,000  which reflects the Petitioners’ estimation of damages caused to all consumers which (pursuant to the Class Action Request) allegedly called to Xfone 018’s technical support number during a certain period defined in the Class Action Request. As of March 21, 2010, this matter is pending.
