     4.   Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby
          ---------------------------------------------
represents and warrants to the Purchaser as follows:


          (a)  The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as
     a corporation in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware. The
     Company's wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary, Electric Fuel (E.F.L.) Limited
     ("EFL"), is duly incorporated and is validly existing. Each of the Company
     and EFL is qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation in each
     jurisdiction in which the character or location of its assets or properties
     (owned, leased or licensed) or the nature of its business makes such
     qualification necessary, except for such jurisdictions where the failure to
     so qualify, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material
     adverse effect on the assets or properties, business, results of operations
     or financial condition, taken as a whole, of the Company and EFL.

          (b)  All necessary corporate action has been duly and validly taken to
     authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by the
     Company. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and
     delivered by the Company and constitutes the legal, valid and binding
     obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance
     with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by
     bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
     affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
     equitable principles.
<PAGE>

          (c)  Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
     by the Company nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated
     hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the issuance and sale by
     the Company of the Shares) will give rise to a right to terminate or
     accelerate the due date of any payment due under, or conflict with or
     result in the breach of any term or provision of, or constitute a default
     (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a
     default) under, or require any consent or waiver under, or result in the
     execution or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon
     any properties or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of, any
     material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other agreement or
     instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company or any
     of its properties or businesses is bound, or any franchise, license,
     permit, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation applicable to
     the Company, or violate any provision of the charter or by-laws of the
     Company or EFL, except for such consents or waivers that have already been
     obtained and are in full force and effect, or such consents or waivers the
     failure to so obtain would not individually or in the aggregate, have a
     material adverse effect upon the assets or properties, business, results of
     operations or financial condition, taken as a whole, of the Company and
     EFL.


          (d)  The Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
     ended December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1999, the Company's Form 10-Qs for
     the fiscal periods ended March 31, 1999, June 30, 1999 and September 30,
     1999 and all documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
     (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
     amended (the "Exchange Act") (such documents are hereinafter referred to as
     the "Exchange Act Documents") were filed in a timely manner and, when they
     were filed (or, if any amendment with respect to any such document was
     filed, when such amendment was filed), conformed in all material respects
     to the requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations
     thereunder, and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
     omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
     make the statements therein not misleading. Subsequent to the respective
     dates as of which information was given in the Exchange Act Documents,
     except as described therein, there has not been any material adverse change
     in the Company's operations, and, to the Company's knowledge, no event has
     occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both, that would constitute
     such a material adverse change, in the assets or properties, business,
     results of operations or financial condition of the Company taken as a
     whole.

          (e)  Other than as previously disclosed to the Purchaser, there are no
     claims for brokerage commissions or finder's fees on similar compensation
     in connection with the transactions by this Agreement based on any
     arrangement or agreement made by or on behalf of the Company other than as
     previously disclosed to the Purchaser, and the Company agrees to indemnify
     and hold the Purchaser harmless against any damages incurred as a result of
     any such claims.


     5.   Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser.  The Purchaser
          -----------------------------------------------

     this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding
     obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in

     limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
     similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and
     by general equitable principles.

          (b)  The Shares, to be received by the Purchaser will be acquired for
     investment for the Purchaser's own account, and not with a view to the
     distribution of any part thereof. Other then in context of "Hedging"
     transactions, the Purchaser has no present intention of selling, granting
     any participation in, or otherwise distributing the same. The Purchaser
     does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
     person to sell, transfer, or grant participation to such person or to any
     third person, with respect to any of the Shares.

     transferred, or otherwise disposed of without registration under the
     Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an
     effective registration statement covering the Shares or an available
     exemption from registration under the Securities Act, the Shares must be
     held indefinitely. In the absence of an effective registration statement
     covering the Shares, the Purchaser will sell, transfer, or otherwise
     dispose of the Shares only in a manner consistent with its representations
     and agreements set forth herein.

                    "SECURITIES ACT") AND APPLICABLE STATE LAW, AND
                    MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED

                    APPLICABLE EXEMPTION THEREFROM (IN EACH CASE BASED
                    UPON DOCUMENTATION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY,
                    INCLUDING AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO IT
                    THAT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY
