    Dear
Bob:

     

    Re:           Your Employment Agreement
dated April 15, 2007

     

    In
connection with your Fourth Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with
Arotech Corporation and Electric Fuel (E.F.L.) Ltd. (collectively, the
“Company”) dated April 15, 2007 (the “Agreement”), we wish to amend the
Agreement in certain respects. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Agreement.

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              1.

            	
              Section
      1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to extend the Term of the Agreement
      to December 31, 2011.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              2.

            	
              In
      Section 6(3)(ii) of the Agreement, the phrase “twenty percent (20%)” is
      hereby replaced with the phrase “thirty percent
  (30%).”

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              3.

            	
              Section
      7(e) of the Agreement is hereby amended to provide that upon Termination
      (except Termination for Cause), all Restricted Shares, both Performance
      Restricted Shares and Non-Performance Restricted Shares, shall immediately
      become unrestricted and freely tradable (subject to applicable securities
      laws).

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              4.

            	
              For
      the avoidance of doubt, we hereby clarify that if your employment is
      Terminated by you for Good Reason or because there has been a Change in
      Control, or by us without Cause, you will be entitled to be paid upon
      Termination, in addition to and not instead of all Accrued Compensation
      and all other compensation due to you pursuant to the provisions of
      Section 7 of the Agreement, all Base Salary that you would have been paid
      through the end of the Term but for the
  Termination.

            

    

     

    
      	
               
      

            	
              5.

            	
              In
      all other respects, the terms of the Agreement will govern the
      relationship between us.

            

    

     

    If the
foregoing is acceptable to you, kindly sign this letter in the space provided
for your signature below, whereupon this letter will become a binding amendment
to the Agree­ment.

     

    Sincerely
yours,

        Dear
Steven:

         

        Re:           Your Employment Agreement
dated April 14, 2008

         

        In
connection with your amended and restated employment with Electric Fuel (E.F.L.)
Ltd. (the “Company”) dated April 14, 2008 (the “Agreement”), we wish to amend
Agreement in certain respects. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Agreement.

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  1.

                	
                  Section
      1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety, and in place and
      stead thereof a new Section 1 is hereby inserted, reading as
      follows:

                

        

         

        “1.
Term.

         

        The
term of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be for the period
commencing January 1, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2011 (the “Term”). Any
failure of the parties to extend the Term of this Agreement or to enter into a
new employment agreement on or before January 31, 2012 shall hereinafter be
defined as a “Non-Renewal.” The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the
relationship between the parties hereto retroactively as if this Agreement were
signed on the commencement of the Term.”

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  2.

                	
                  Throughout
      the Agreement. any and all references to the “Initial Term” or to an
      “Additional Term” shall be deemed to be references to the
      “Term.”

                

        

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  3.

                	
                  The
      following language shall be added at the end of the penultimate sentence
      of Section 7(b)(ii): “; provided, however, that in the
      event of Termination due to Change in Control, all of the foregoing
      multiples of monthly Base Salary shall be increased by an additional six
      (6) times, such that, for purposes of example, a Termination due to a
      Change of Control at or after the end of the third year of this Agreement
      shall result in termination pay equal to a total of (i) $107,200 plus (ii)
      thirty (30) times the monthly Base Salary at the highest rate in effect at
      any time within the ninety (90) day period ending on the Termination
      Date.”

                

        

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  4.

                	
                  For
      the avoidance of doubt, we hereby clarify that if your employment is
      Terminated by you for Good Reason or because there has been a Change in
      Control or a Change of Location, or by us without Cause, or due to
      Non-Renewal, you will be entitled to be paid upon Termination, in addition
      to and not instead of all Accrued Compensation and all other compensation
      due to you pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 of the Agreement, all
      Base Salary that you would have been paid through the end of the Term but
      for the Termination.

                

        

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  5.

                	
                  Pursuant
      to the terms of the Agreement, your Base Salary is supposed to be
      increased by 6% each year to take account of inflation (irrespective of
      the actual inflation rate). You hereby agree to waive this increase in
      respect of 2009. Notwithstanding this waiver and any future waiver of this
      6% increase, your “Base Salary” for purposes of determining compensation
      upon Termination shall refer to the higher of (i) your actual monthly Base
      Salary at the highest rate in effect at any time within the ninety (90)
      day period ending on the Termination Date, and (ii) what your Base Salary
      at the Termination Date would have been had you not waived the 6%
      increase(s) referred to above.

                

        

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  6.

                	
                  Arotech
      Corporation, the parent corporation of the Company, hereby unconditionally
      guarantees to you the full and prompt payment and performance of all
      obligations, accrued and executory, which the Company presently has or
      hereafter may have to you under the
Agreement.

                

        

         

        
          	
                   
      

                	
                  7.

                	
                  In
      all other respects, the terms of the Agreement will govern the
      relationship between us.

                

        

         

        If the
foregoing is acceptable to you, kindly sign this letter in the space provided
for your signature below, whereupon this letter will become a binding amendment
to the Agree­ment.
