     bank account of such recipient Party described in wire transfer
     instructions provided by such Party to the paying Party within two (2)
     Business Days after the expiration of the Review Period, and (b) Buyer and
     Seller will attempt to reconcile their differences and any resolution by
     them as to any disputed amounts will be final, binding and conclusive for
     all purposes on the Parties. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach a
     resolution with respect to all disputed items within forty-five (45) days
     of delivery of the Adjustment Dispute Notice, Buyer and Seller will submit
     any items remaining in dispute for determination and resolution to the

     report to the Parties, within thirty (30) days after such submission, upon
     such remaining disputed items. The report of the Independent Accounting
     Firm will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties for all purposes.
     The fees and disbursements of the Independent Accounting Firm will be
     allocated between Buyer and Seller so that Buyer's share of such fees and
     disbursements will be in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of
     such remaining disputed items so submitted to the Independent Accounting
     Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by Buyer (as finally determined by the
     Independent Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of such remaining
     disputed amounts so submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm.

     harmless from and against any and all Damages caused by or arising out of
     any settlement approved by the indemnifying Party or any judgment in
     connection with such Third Party Claim. The indemnifying Party shall keep
     the Indemnitee informed of the progress of the defense of any such Third
     Party Claim. Without the written consent of the Indemnitee, the
     indemnifying Party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
     any settlement that does not include an unconditional and complete release
     of the Indemnitee by the claimant or plaintiff making the Third Party Claim
     without the imposition of any injunction or other equitable relief against
     the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee may participate in such defense or
     settlement through its own counsel, but at its own expense provided that if
     there is an actual conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the
     indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee
     may retain its own counsel at the indemnifying Party's expense. In the
     event that the Indemnitee elects to participate in the defense of a Third
     Party Claim, the indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee shall mutually
     cooperate and make available to the other witnesses, records and materials
     related to the matter. No Third Party Claim that is being defended in good
     faith by the indemnifying party shall be settled or compromised by the
     Indemnitee without the written consent of the indemnifying Party.

          10.3.3 Failure to Assume Defense. Failure by the indemnifying Party to
     notify the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any Third
     Party Claim within thirty (30) days after its receipt of notice thereof
     pursuant to Section 10.3.1 shall be deemed a waiver by the indemnifying
     Party of its right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. In such
     event, the Indemnitee may defend against such Third Party Claim in any
     manner it deems appropriate. The Indemnitee may settle such Third Party
     Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto,
     provided that it acts in good faith and in a commercially reasonable
     manner.

          10.3.4 Survival. Neither Party shall have any obligation to indemnify
     any Indemnitee pursuant to Sections 10.1 or 10.2 unless such Indemnitee has
     given written notice to such Party in accordance with Section 10.3.1 prior
     to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, except in
     the case of those representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.4,
     3.14 and 3.19 (the "Extended Representations") which shall survive until
     the expiration of the statutory limitation periods pertaining to the
     respective events which may constitute a breach of such representations and
     warranties.

     10.4 Limits on Indemnification.

          10.4.1 Thresholds and Basket. Seller shall be liable to the Buyer
     Indemnitees for Damages that are indemnifiable pursuant to Section 10.1,
     and Buyer shall be liable to the Seller Indemnitees for Damages that are
     indemnifiable pursuant to Section 10.2 (in either case, other than payment
     obligations under this Agreement), only if (a) amount of Damages for each
     claim exceeds a de minimus threshold of $5,000.00 (unless such claim is
     part of a related series of breaches of representations and warranties)
     before it may be asserted, but if that threshold is exceeded the first
     dollar of the claim is applied against the Basket, and (b) the aggregate
     amount of such Damages to all Buyer Indemnitees or all Seller Indemnitees,
     respectively, exceeds $25,000.00 (the "Basket").

          10.4.2 Limit of Liability. The total aggregate liability of Seller for
     any claims for Damages arising under Section 10.1 of this Agreement
     (exclusive of Damages arising from the breach of any Extended
     Representation) shall not exceed the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of
     doubt, the limitations of liability set forth in this Section 10.4 shall
     not apply to any Extended Representation.

          10.4.3 Consequential Damages; Insurance; Taxes. Neither Seller, on the
     one hand, nor Buyer, on the other hand, shall have any obligation to
     indemnify any Seller Indemnitee or Buyer Indemnitee for any other Damages
     that are (a) recoverable by the Indemnitee from any third party (including
     insurers to the extent recoverable), except to the extent of any
     deductible, retention or demonstrated increase in premiums related thereto,
     or (b) offset by tax savings realized on account of such Damages by the
     Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates (to the extent and at the time of such
     tax savings). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
     Agreement, no Party hereto shall be entitled to recover from any other
     Party hereto any amount in respect of exemplary, punitive, special,
     indirect, consequential, remote, or speculative damages, including lost
     profits.

          10.4.4 Exclusive Remedy. This Article 10 sets forth the exclusive
     remedy owing from Seller to the Buyer Indemnitees and from Buyer to Seller
     Indemnitees that arise from the matters described in Sections 10.1 and
     10.2. Each of Seller and Buyer hereby waives any other claim or cause of
     action that it might assert against the other Party with respect to the
     matters described in Sections 10.1 and 10.2.

          10.4.5 Indemnity Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article
     10 (other than interest payments) shall be treated by the Parties on all
     Tax Returns as an additional payment or rebate, as the case may be, of the
     Purchase Price.

          10.4.6 Payment and Assignment of Claims. Upon final determination by
     the Parties or by a court of competent jurisdiction that an Indemnitee is
     entitled to indemnification under this Article 10, the indemnifying Party
     shall promptly pay or reimburse, as appropriate, the Indemnitee for any
     Damages to which it is entitled to be indemnified hereunder. Neither Party
     nor its Affiliates shall permit any exercise of any right of set-off
     against the other Party or its Affiliates until such final determination is
     made.

                                       29

unreasonably withheld.

                                   ARTICLE XII
                                  Miscellaneous

     12.1 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement as applied to any
Party or to any circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by
any court of competent jurisdiction, (i) the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full
force and effect and (ii) the application of such provision to any other part or
to any other circumstance shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

     12.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors, whether by

provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or

Agreement or to affect the construction or interpretation hereof.

     12.5 Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived
in writing at any time by the Party which is entitled to the benefits thereof.
Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement
will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other
or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege.

     12.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall create
or confer upon any Person (including but not limited to any Employees), other
than the Parties or their respective successors and permitted assigns, any legal
or equitable rights, remedies, obligations, liabilities or claims under or with
respect to this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.

Gateway Agreements are not in compliance with applicable Laws; and no event has
occurred, and no circumstances or condition exists, that (with or without notice
or lapse of time) would reasonably be expected to constitute or result in a
failure of the Assets or the Gateway Agreements to comply with the terms of any
applicable Laws.

     14.13 Taxes. There are no Liens on any of the Assets that arose in
connection with any failure (or alleged failure) to pay any Tax that will
continue to be a Lien against the Assets after Closing.

     14.14 Real Property. The only Real Property of the Sellers consists of all
of the Easements necessary for the ownership or operation of the Assets. Sellers
have not received any notice of any (i) plan, study or effort by any Person or
Governmental Authority (ii) intended or proposed Law, or (iii) existing,
proposed or contemplated public improvement plan to modify or realign any street
or highway or eminent domain proceeding, in each case that may impose a Lien
upon, result in a taking of all or any part of, or adversely affect the current
or planned use of, any of the Real Property. Each Easement included in the Real
Property is valid, existing and enforceable; there has not been, and there
currently is not any event (with or without notice, lapse of time or both with
respect thereto) that would result in the termination, impairment or limitation
of any such Easement; no future payments of any kind are due under any Easement
included in the Real Property in order to maintain its existence; each such
Easement is perpetual; and the continuation, validity and enforceability of each
Easement will not be disturbed by the transaction contemplated herein.

                                   ARTICLE XV
                     Representations and Warranties of Buyer

     Buyer makes the following representations and warranties to Sellers:

     15.1 Organization; Power and Authority. Buyer is a limited liability

and perform its obligations under this Agreement and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by it.

     15.2 Authorization; Execution and Validity. The execution, delivery and
performance by Buyer of this Agreement and the consummation by Buyer of the
transactions contemplated hereby to be consummated by it have been duly
authorized by all necessary company action. This Agreement has been duly and
validly executed and delivered by Buyer, constitutes a valid and binding
obligation of Buyer and is enforceable against Buyer in accordance with its
terms, except to the extent that the enforcement hereof may be limited by (i)
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or
hereafter in effect relating to creditors' rights generally, and (ii) general
principles of equity regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law.

     15.3 No Conflict; Buyer Consents. The execution, delivery and performance
by Buyer of this Agreement will not (a) violate any Law to which Buyer is
subject, (b) violate any Charter Document of Buyer, (c) violate any Order to
which Buyer is a party or by which it is bound, (d) require any Consent from any
Governmental Authority, or (e) breach any material Contract to which Buyer is a
party or by which it is bound.

     15.4 Litigation; Orders. There is no Action by any Person or by or before
any Governmental Authority that is pending or, to Buyer's Knowledge threatened
against or affecting Buyer or any of its properties, assets, operations or
business which would, if adversely determined, have a material adverse effect on
Buyer's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
nor is Buyer subject to any Order which would have any such effect.

     15.5 Brokers. No Person is or will become entitled to receive any brokerage
or finder's fee, advisory fee or other similar payment for the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement by virtue of having been engaged by or acted on
behalf of Buyer.

                                  ARTICLE XVI
                                INDEMNIFICATION

     16.1 Indemnification by Sellers. Subject to the other provisions of this
Article 5, from and after the Closing Date, Sellers shall defend, indemnify and
hold Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective employees, officers, directors
and agents (the "Buyer Indemnitees") harmless from and against any and all
Damages suffered by any Buyer Indemnitee arising out of:

          16.1.1 the breach of any representation or warranty made by Sellers in
     this Agreement or in any certificate required to be executed and delivered
     by Sellers or their respective officers at the Closing pursuant to this
     Agreement;

          16.1.2 the failure of Sellers to perform any covenant or obligation by
     Sellers contained in this Agreement or any other agreement required to be
     executed and delivered by Seller at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement;
     and

          16.1.3 any Actions against any of the Buyer Indemnitees arising out of
     the actions or inactions of Sellers with respect to the Assets on or prior
     to the Closing Date.

                                       49

<PAGE>

     16.2 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the other provisions of this
Article 5, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall defend, indemnify and
hold Sellers, their Affiliates and their respective employees, officers,
directors and agents (the "Seller Indemnitees") harmless from and against any
Damages suffered by any Seller Indemnitee arising out of:

          16.2.1 the breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in
     this Agreement or in any certificate required to be executed and delivered
     by Buyer or its officers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement;

          16.2.2 the failure of Buyer to perform any covenant or obligation by
     Buyer contained in this Agreement or any other agreement required to be
     executed and delivered by Buyer at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement;
     and

          16.2.3 any Actions against any of the Seller Indemnitees arising out
     of the actions or inactions of Buyer with respect to the operation of the
     Assets or obligations under the Gateway Agreements and Transportation
     Agreements after the Closing Date.

     16.3 Notice and Resolution of Claims.

          16.3.1 Notice. Each person entitled to indemnification pursuant to
     Section 5.1 or Section 5.2 (an "Indemnitee") shall promptly give written
     notice to the indemnifying Party after obtaining knowledge of any claim
     that it may have pursuant to this Article 5; provided, however, the failure
     of any Indemnitee to give timely notice thereof shall not affect any of its
     rights to indemnification hereunder nor relieve the indemnifying Party from
     any of its indemnification obligations hereunder. Such notice shall set
     forth in reasonable detail the claim and the basis for indemnification.

          16.3.2 Right to Assume Defense. If such claim for indemnity shall
     arise from a claim or Action involving a third party (a "Third Party
     Claim"), the Indemnitee shall permit the indemnifying Party to assume its
     defense. If the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party
     Claim, it shall take all steps necessary to investigate, defend or settle
     such Action and shall, subject to Section 5.4, hold the Indemnitee harmless
     from and against any and all Damages caused by or arising out of any
     settlement approved by the indemnifying Party or any judgment in connection
     with such Third Party Claim. The indemnifying Party shall keep the
     Indemnitee informed of the progress of the defense of any such Third Party
     Claim. Without the written consent of the Indemnitee, the indemnifying
     Party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
     settlement that does not include an unconditional and complete release of
     the Indemnitee by the claimant or plaintiff making the Third Party Claim
     without the imposition of any injunction or other equitable relief against
     the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee may participate in such defense or
     settlement through its own counsel, but at its own expense provided that if
     there is an actual conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the
     indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee
     may retain its own counsel at the indemnifying Party's expense. In the
     event that the Indemnitee elects to participate in the defense of a Third
     Party Claim, the indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee shall mutually
     cooperate and make available to the other witnesses, records and materials
     related to the matter. No Third Party Claim that is being defended in good
     faith by the indemnifying party shall be settled or compromised by the
     Indemnitee without the written consent of the indemnifying Party.

                                       50

<PAGE>

          16.3.3 Failure to Assume Defense. Failure by the indemnifying Party to
     notify the Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any Third
     Party Claim within thirty (30) days after its receipt of notice thereof
     pursuant to Section 5.3.1 shall be deemed a waiver by the indemnifying
     Party of its right to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim. In such
     event, the Indemnitee may defend against such Third Party Claim in any
     manner it deems appropriate. The Indemnitee may settle such Third Party
     Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect thereto,
     provided that it acts in good faith and in a commercially reasonable
     manner.

          16.3.4 Survival. The Parties indemnity obligations shall be limited to
     those claims that accrue within twelve (12) months after the Closing Date
     (the "Claims Period"); provided, however, that the Claims Period for any
     claim arising from a breach of the representations and warranties set forth
     in Sections 3.8, 3.10 and 3.13 (the "Extended Representations") shall
     terminate upon the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations
     period.

     16.4 Limits on Indemnification.

          16.4.1 Limit of Liability. The total aggregate liability of Sellers
     for any claims for Damages arising under Section 5.1 of this Agreement
     (exclusive of Damages arising from the breach of any Extended
     Representation) shall not exceed the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of
     doubt, the limitations of liability set forth in this Section 5.4 shall not
     apply to any Extended Representation.

          16.4.2 Consequential Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
     contained in this Agreement, no Party hereto shall be entitled to recover
     from any other Party hereto any amount in respect of exemplary, punitive,
     special, indirect, consequential, remote, or speculative damages, including
     lost profits.

          16.4.3 Exclusive Remedy. This Article 5 sets forth the exclusive
     remedy owing from Sellers to the Buyer Indemnitees and from Buyer to Seller
     Indemnitees that arise from the matters described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2.
     Each Party hereby waives any other claim or cause of action that it might
     assert against the other Party with respect to the matters described in
     Sections 5.1 and 5.2.

          16.4.4 Indemnity Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article
     5 (other than interest payments) shall be treated by the Parties on all Tax
     Returns as an additional payment or rebate, as the case may be, of the
     Purchase Price.

          16.4.5 Payment and Assignment of Claims. Upon final determination by
     the Parties or by a court of competent jurisdiction that an Indemnitee is
     entitled to indemnification under this Article 5, the indemnifying Party
     shall promptly pay or reimburse, as appropriate, the Indemnitee for any
     Damages to which it is entitled to be indemnified hereunder. Neither Party
     nor its Affiliates shall permit any exercise of any right of set-off
     against the other Party or its Affiliates until such final determination is
     made.

                                       51

<PAGE>

     16.5 Other Indemnitees. Buyer shall cause Buyer Indemnitees, and Sellers
shall cause Seller Indemnitees, to comply with the provisions and to abide by
the limitations set forth in this Article 5.

                                  ARTICLE XVII
                                  Miscellaneous

     17.1 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement as applied to any
Party or to any circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable by
any court of competent jurisdiction, (i) the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full
force and effect and (ii) the application of such provision to any other part or
to any other circumstance shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

     17.2 Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors, whether by
merger, consolidation or otherwise, and permitted assigns of the Parties;
provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or
obligations thereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written
consent of the other Party. Any assignment in violation of this Section 6.2
shall be null and void.

     17.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original
and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

     17.4 Headings. The captions and headings used in this Agreement are
inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this
Agreement or to affect the construction or interpretation hereof.

     17.5 Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement may be waived
in writing at any time by the Party which is entitled to the benefits thereof.
Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement
will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or
partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other
or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege.

     17.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall create
or confer upon any Person (including but not limited to any Employees), other

or equitable rights, remedies, obligations, liabilities or claims under or with
respect to this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein.

     17.7 Notices. Unless otherwise provided, all notices and other

Dear Sir,

Re:Petroleum Exploration License 298/Ma'anit-Joseph

 

Further to your request, I shall extend the term of the referenced license issued to Zion Oil & Gas, Inc. (hereinafter - "Zion") through 30 April 2006 on the fulfillment of all the following conditions:

1.No later than 10 November 2004, Zion shall sign a contract with a drilling contractor for the drilling of a well to at least 4,000 meters (the Mohilla structure) (hereinafter - the "Well");

2.Not later than 1 March 2005, Zion shall prove to my satisfaction one of the following:

(a)that Zion has on deposit in its account an amount which, together with amounts previously paid on account of the Well, will be sufficient to cover the costs of drilling the Well and conducting the customary tests (the expected cost of the Well as fixed in the AFE for these purposes) (hereinafter - the "Drilling Funds"); or

(b)if Zion has submitted an application to transfer a portion of its rights in the License or in the Well to a third party, that there is in the accounts of Zion and the third party collectively an amount equal to the Drilling Funds.

For the purposes of clause 2, the term "in the account" includes a deposit in a bank or a securities account, a bank guarantee, letter of credit or other form satisfactory to me.

You have informed me that you intend to use the drilling rig that prior to use by you will be serving Givot Olam. If this drilling rig will be released a sufficient time prior to the end of the License's current term (being 30 April 2005), I shall amend the schedule of the work program so that you shall be required to commence the Well by the later of (1) 45 (forty five) days following the release of the drilling rig by Givot Olam and the confirmation of the owner of the rig (Lapidoth) that it is available for your use or (2) 1 March 2004.
