3.D. Risk factors

In conducting our business, we face many risks that may interfere with our business objectives. Some of these risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In particular, we are subject to various risks resulting from changing economic, political, industry, business and financial conditions. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face.

You should carefully consider the following factors and other information in this annual report before you decide to invest in our Ordinary Shares. If any of the negative events referred to below occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. In any such case, the trading price of our Ordinary Shares could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our quarterly operating results are subject to significant fluctuations.

Our quarterly operating results are subject to significant fluctuations and are difficult to predict. Historically, a significant percentage of our quarterly revenues has been derived from orders placed towards the end of a given quarter. If sales forecasted from a specific customer or partner for a particular quarter are not realized in that quarter, we may not be able to generate revenues from alternate sources in time to compensate for the shortfall. Also, frequently our quarterly revenue performance depends upon a sale of significant size to a single customer. Due to the relatively large size of some orders, a lost or delayed sale could have a material adverse effect on our quarterly revenue.

The factors that may cause significant fluctuations in our quarterly operating results include, but are not limited to, the following:

	·	the volume and timing of customer orders;

	·	internal budget constraints and approval processes of our customers;

	·	the length and unpredictability of our sales cycle;

	·	the recognition of a portion of our revenues on a contract accounting basis;

	·	the indirect nature of some of our sales efforts through our channel and strategic partners;

	·	the mix of revenue generated by product licenses and professional services;

	·	new product introductions or enhancements by us or our competitors;

	·	price and product competition;

	·	changes to our pricing strategies and those of our competitors;

	·	timing and amount of sales and marketing expenses;

	·	changes in the composition and success of our business and partner relationships;

	·	technical difficulties affecting the operation of our software;

	·	foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

	·	general economic conditions, including a prolonged economic recession; and

	·	difficulties in collecting accounts receivable.

Because of the numerous factors that may cause significant fluctuations in our quarterly operating results, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and that such comparisons should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

Our sales cycle is variable, often long, dependent on factors outside our control and involves investment of significant resources on our part, but may never result in actual sales.

The length of our sales cycle – the period between initial contact with a potential customer and the signing of a license and related agreements - has historically been lengthy and variable, typically lasting from three to nine months. We generally must educate our potential customers about the use and benefit of our products and services, which can require the investment of significant time and resources, causing us to incur most of our selling and marketing expenses in advance of a potential sale. In addition, a number of companies decide

Page 6

which products to buy through a request for proposal process. In those situations, we run the risk of investing significant resources in a proposal that results in a competitor obtaining the desired contract from the customer or in a decision by a customer not to proceed. Sales of licenses are subject to a number of risks outside our control, including budgeting, approval and competitive evaluation processes that typically accompany significant capital expenditures. Potential customers consider many factors in evaluating our products, and the length of time a customer devotes to evaluation, contract negotiation and budgeting processes varies significantly from company to company. In certain circumstances, we may invest significant resources in a sales process that does not result in actual sales.

Our implementation cycle depends on factors outside our control.

Depending on the nature and specific needs of a customer, the implementation of our products typically takes six to twelve months. During the implementation cycle, there are a number of factors beyond our control that may affect the implementation timeline, including a customer’s budgetary constraints and internal acceptance reviews, the success and continued internal support of a customer’s own development efforts, the nature, size and specific needs of a customer, the possibility that a customer cancels an order and the level and quality of service provided by third-party implementation and professional services partners. Long implementation cycles may delay the recognition of revenue as some of our customers engage us to perform system implementation services, which can defer revenue recognition for the related software license revenue. In addition, when we experience long implementation cycles, we may incur costs at a higher level than anticipated, which may reduce the anticipated profitability of a given implementation. Because our implementation cycle depends on factors outside of our control, we may experience delays or other complications with our implementation timeline that may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The market may not accept our products and services.

Historically, all of our operating revenue has come from sales of, and services related to, our end-to-end service chain optimization suite of products (our "Service Optimization Suite"), which includes ClickSchedule, ClickFix, ClickAnalyze, ClickPlan, ClickMobile, ClickRoster, ClickForecast, ClickLocate, ClickIMRS and ClickContact. We recently further enhanced our offering to include a Field Service Suite, a Mobility Suite and a Roster Suite. We now also provide hosted solutions under a “software as a services” (SaaS) model. We continually aim to improve and enhance our Service Optimization Suite, and other offerings and SaaS solutions, to meet market requirements and our growth depends on the market acceptance of these products and services. If our products and services do not achieve continued customer acceptance, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

We face competition, which could make it difficult to compete successfully.

The market for our products is competitive and rapidly changing. Competition may increase in the future as current competitors expand their product offerings and new companies attempt to enter the market. In addition, smaller competitors have been acquired by large organizations with broader product offerings. Our industry has witnessed a substantial amount of merger and acquisition activity over the past few years and this trend of industry consolidation will likely continue, particularly as larger, better capitalized companies seek to acquire smaller, weaker rivals that have been adversely affected by the economic downturn.

Competitors vary in size and in the scope and breadth of the products and services they offer. Some of our current and potential competitors are among the largest and most well capitalized software companies in the world and have significant competitive advantages over us, including greater name recognition, longer operating histories, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, public relations, sales, distribution and other resources than us. Because the market for service and delivery optimization software is evolving, we expect additional competition from other established and emerging companies if this market continues to develop and expand. For example, we could face competition from our strategic partners or from other companies that may in future decide to enter and compete in our market. In particular, since our contracts with resellers generally do not include non-competition provisions, it may be easier for these partners to compete with us in the future. Competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced gross margin and loss of market share, any of which could cause our business, financial condition and results of operations to suffer. We may not be able to compete successfully with

Page 7

existing or future competitors. If we fail to compete successfully against current and future competitors, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.

If we fail to expand our relationships with third parties that provide implementation and professional services to our customers, we may be unable to increase our revenues.

In order for us to focus more effectively on our core business of developing and licensing software solutions, we must continue to establish relationships with third parties that provide implementation and professional services to our customers. Third-party implementation and professional services firms can be influential in the choice of service optimization applications by new customers. These third parties are under no obligation to recommend or support our products; they could recommend or give higher priority to the products of other companies or to their own products. If we are unable to establish and maintain effective, long-term relationships with implementation and professional services providers, or if these providers do not meet the needs or expectations of our customers, we may be unable to increase our revenues, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Even if we establish relationships with these third party implementation and professional services firms, we may be unable to attract sufficient focus and resources from them to meet all of our customers’ needs as a result of the limited resources and capacities of many third-party providers. If sufficient resources are unavailable, we could be required to provide these services internally, which could limit our ability to meet other demands. We cannot control the level and quality of service provided by these partners.

Failure to fully develop or maintain key business relationships could limit our ability to sell additional licenses, thereby decreasing our revenues and increasing our sales and marketing expenses.

Our success in penetrating our target markets depends, in part, on our ability to develop and maintain key business relationships with software vendors, value-added resellers, agents, systems integrators, distribution partners and customers. For example, we depend on certain suppliers for the development, supply and support of third-party software components that are integrated into our products. We do not have long-term contracts with some of these suppliers, and they are not obligated to provide us with products or services for any specified period of time. If we fail to maintain these relationships, our ability to sell additional licenses could be limited. We have entered into agreements with third parties relating to the integration of our products with their product offerings, and distribution, reselling and consulting services. For example, in 2008 we entered into a global reseller agreement with SAP AG, pursuant to which SAP will resell our Service Optimization Suite. We derive revenues from these agreements, but may not be able to continue to do so in the future. Also, our marketing strategy includes selling through distributors, value-added resellers and agents, as well as direct selling by our own sales force. For example, the marketing strategy for our IMRS product is based on cooperation with these partners. Key resellers, such as SAP, may not be able to maintain sales of our products at their current levels. We may not be successful in extending the terms of our various agreements or establishing similar relationships with these partners if our current agreements expire or are terminated. Furthermore, if any of our software vendors cease production, cease operations or fail to timely deliver orders, we could be required to provide these services internally, which could limit our ability to meet other demands and we may not be able to meet our delivery obligations to our customers, in which case we could lose revenues and harm our customer relationships. If we fail to fully develop or maintain key business relationships, we could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

The complexity of accounting regulations and related interpretations and policies, particularly with regard to revenue recognition, could cause us to defer revenue and materially affect our financial results for a given period.

We frequently enter into contracts where, due to revenue recognition criteria, we recognize only a portion of the total revenue under the contract in the quarter in which we enter into the contract. For example, we may recognize revenue on a ratable basis over the life of the contract. The portion of revenues recognized on a deferred basis may vary significantly in any given quarter, and revenues in any given quarter are a function both of contracts signed in such quarter and contracts signed in prior quarters. In addition, we may be required to apply project accounting, based on Accounting Standards Codification™, or ASC, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts, or ASC 605-35 (originally issued as SOP 81-1), using contract accounting on the percentage-of-completion method based on the relationship of actual working hours incurred to total working hours estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract.

Page 8

When project accounting is applied, license revenues may be adversely affected by delays in the progress of the implementation. As a result, revenues in any quarter could be deferred, and our financial results for a given period could be materially affected by our treatment of revenue recognition.

Nearly all of our cash, cash equivalents and short and long-term investments do not benefit from deposit insurance.

As of December 31, 2009, we had cash, cash equivalents and short and long-term investments of approximately $35 million, compared to $32 million at the end of 2008. The majority of this cash and investments is held mainly in bank deposits located in various countries. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or the FDIC, protects depositors against the loss of their deposits if an FDIC-insured bank or savings association fails. Such protection was increased, until June 30, 2010, from an insurance amount of $100,000 to an insurance amount of $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank and to an unlimited amount for non-interest bearing accounts. However, nearly all of our cash and investments are not insured by the FDIC or similar governmental deposit insurance outside the United States. In the event that a bank holding our cash or investments is unable to honor its deposit obligations, we could lose our cash or investments and such losses may not be fully insured. Any such event could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We depend on key personnel, and the loss of any key personnel could affect our ability to compete and impair our ability to attract additional key personnel.

Our future success depends on the continued service of our executive officers and other key sales and marketing, product development and professional services personnel. Competition for these employees can be intense, including in a number of our key markets and locations, such as Israel and India. More generally, we may be unable to attract and retain a sufficient number of highly qualified professional services personnel to meet our business needs.

Customers that license our software typically engage our professional services organization to assist with the installation and operation of our software applications. Our professional services organization also typically assists with the maintenance, management and expansion of our customers' software systems. Future growth in licenses of our software will depend, in part, on our ability to continue providing customers with these services. To the extent that we receive several large orders simultaneously or in close proximity to one another, we could place added strain on our existing personnel. The market for the qualified personnel we require is very competitive because of the limited number of people available with the necessary technical and sales skills and understanding of our products and technology. If we are unable to maintain and expand our professional services organization, our ability to support our service business would be limited.

The services of our key personnel would be difficult to replace and the loss of any of these employees could harm our business significantly. Although we have employment or consulting agreements with our executive officers that generally require 60 to 90 days notification prior to departure, our relationships with these officers and key employees are at will and can be terminated by either party without cause. The loss of any of our key personnel could harm our ability to execute our business strategy and remain competitive.

Any future mergers with or acquisitions of companies, products or technologies and the resultant integration process may distract our management and disrupt our business.

One of our business strategies is to consider strategic partnerships, alliances, mergers and/or acquisitions of complementary businesses, products and technologies. For example, we made several acquisitions in 2009. Mergers with or acquisitions of companies, products or technologies involve a number of risks, including:

	·	the diversion of management time and resources;

	·	the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of the merged or acquired companies;

	·	the possibility the business cultures will not be compatible;

	·	the difficulty of incorporating acquired technology and rights into our products and services;

	·	unanticipated expenses related to integration of the acquired companies;

	·	difficulties in implementing and maintaining uniform standards, controls and policies;

Page 9

	·	the impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new personnel;

	·	potential inability to retain, integrate and motivate key management, marketing, technical sales and customer support personnel;

	·	potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses; and

	·	impairment of goodwill and other assets acquired.

Pursuant to our business strategy, we will continue to consider additional merger or acquisition transactions.

Any future merger and acquisition activity could distract our management and disrupt our business, thereby materially and adversely affecting our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our market may experience rapid technological changes that could cause our products to fail or require us to redesign our products, which would result in increased research and development expenses.

Our market is characterized by rapid technological change, dynamic customer needs and frequent introductions of new products and product enhancements. If we fail to anticipate or respond adequately to technology developments and customer requirements, or if our product development or introduction is delayed, our business will suffer. Client product requirements can change rapidly as a result of computer hardware and software innovations or changes in and the emergence, evolution and adoption of new industry standards. The actual or anticipated introduction of new products has resulted, and will continue to result, in some reformulation of our product offerings. Technology and industry standards can make existing products obsolete or unmarketable or result in delays in the purchase of such products. For example, new vendors have emerged that offer hosted solutions which are easier to implement and for which the up-front investment by the customer is lower. These offerings are consistent with the global trend in the software industry towards SaaS applications. As a result, the life cycles of our products are difficult to estimate. We must respond to developments rapidly and continue to make substantial product development investments. We have previously experienced delays in introducing new products and features, and we may experience delays in the future that could impair our revenue and operating results. Our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected if we fail to respond to our rapidly changing market by enhancing our product functionality to meet our customers' needs.

Global economic conditions may adversely affect our business.

Our operations and performance depend on worldwide economic conditions and their impact on levels of business spending, which have deteriorated significantly in many countries and regions and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future. This may adversely affect the budgeting and purchasing behavior of our customers and our partners’ customers’, which could adversely affect our product sales.

In addition, although economic conditions in many countries have stabilized somewhat following the widespread contraction in late 2008 and 2009, continuing uncertainties in the financial and credit markets may adversely affect the ability of our customers, suppliers and channel partners (e.g., distributors and resellers) to obtain financing for significant purchases and operations and to perform their contractual obligations with us. As a result, we could encounter, among other adverse effects, a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products and services, and an increase in additional reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable being required.

Our revenues depend on a small number of products, and our results may be vulnerable to unexpected shifts in demand.

ClickSchedule accounted for the majority of our license revenues in each of 2009, 2008 and 2007 and we expect that this will be the case in future periods. Accordingly, any decline in the demand for ClickSchedule will have a material adverse effect on our license revenues. A decline in the demand for ClickSchedule may also reduce revenues derived from our other products.

Our products could be susceptible to errors or defects or contain inaccurate data from third-party vendors.

Complex software products, such as ours, often contain errors or defects, particularly when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. In the past, some of our products have contained errors and

Page 10

defects that have delayed implementation or required us to expend additional resources to correct the problems. Testing of our products is particularly challenging because it is difficult to simulate the wide variety of customer environments in several geographic markets into which our products are deployed. Despite internal testing, testing by current and potential customers and the history of use by our installed base of customers, our current and future products may contain defects or errors. Any such defects or errors could result in adverse customer reaction and publicity, damage to our reputation, diversion of resources, increased service and maintenance costs, loss of market demand, loss of market share, loss of potential new customers, lost revenues, liability or a delay in market acceptance of these products, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The performance of our products also depends, in part, upon the accuracy and continued availability of third-party data. We rely on third parties that provide information such as street and address locations and mapping functions that we incorporate into our products. If these parties do not provide accurate information, or if we are unable to maintain our relationships with them, our reputation and competitive position could suffer and we could be unable to develop or enhance our products as required.

Our intellectual property could be used by third parties without our consent because protection of our intellectual property is limited.

Our success and ability to compete substantially depend upon our internally developed technology, which we protect through a combination of trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, patents and intellectual property law, together with non-disclosure and invention assignment agreements. These legal protections provide only limited protection. Unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology. Policing unauthorized use of our products and technology is difficult and costly, particularly in countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. The steps we have taken may not prevent infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.

Our end-user licenses are designed to prohibit unauthorized use, copying or disclosure of our software and technology in the United States, Israel and other foreign countries. However, these provisions may be unenforceable under the laws of some jurisdictions. Unauthorized third parties may be able to copy portions of our products, reverse engineer or obtain and use information and technology that we regard as proprietary. In addition, some of our licensed users may allow additional unauthorized users to use our software, and if we do not detect such use, we could lose potential license fees. In addition, as we deepen our ties with our channel and strategic partners, the number of people who are exposed to and interact with our software and other intellectual property increases. Despite our best efforts to protect our intellectual property, our channel or strategic partners, or their employees or customers, may copy portions of our products or otherwise obtain and use information and technology that we regard as proprietary. Our channel or strategic partners might also improperly incorporate portions of our technology into their own products or otherwise exceed the authorized scope of their licenses to our technology. If we are unable to successfully detect infringement and/or to enforce our intellectual property rights, our competitiveness may be adversely affected.

Our technology and other intellectual property may be subject to infringement claims.

Substantial litigation regarding technology rights and other intellectual property rights exists in the software industry both in terms of infringement and ownership issues. We expect that software products may be increasingly subject to third-party infringement or ownership claims as the number of competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. A successful claim of patent, copyright or trademark infringement or conflicting ownership rights against us could require us to make changes in our business.

Third parties may make a claim of infringement or conflicting ownership rights against us with respect to our products and technology. Any claims, with or without merit, could:

	·	be expensive and time-consuming to defend;

	·	divert management’s attention and resources;

	·	cause product shipment and installation delays; or

	·	require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements to obtain the right to use a necessary product or component, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

Page 11

We also indemnify some of our customers against claims that our products infringe the intellectual property rights of others. We have only conducted a partial search for existing patents and other intellectual property registrations, and our products may infringe issued patents. In addition, because most patent applications are not publicly disclosed until sometime after the application is filed, applications may have been filed that relate to our products. If a successful claim was made against us and we failed to commercially develop or license a substitute technology, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

If our relationships with our key customers are terminated, our revenues will decline and our business will be adversely affected.

During 2009, our five largest customers together accounted for approximately 37% of our revenues. If for any reason, our relationship with a key customer is terminated, or if any of our key customers reduces purchases of our products, then our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. The impact of the termination or reduction in demand of a key customer would be intensified if we were unable to increase sales to other customers to offset this termination or reduction in demand. We expect that a significant portion of our future revenues will continue to be derived from a small number of customers.

Our business is susceptible to numerous risks associated with international operations.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenues from international sales and we maintain significant portions of our operations outside the United States. We expect international revenues to continue to account for a significant percentage of total revenues and we believe we must continue to expand our international sales and professional services activities to be successful. Our facilities are located in North America, Israel, the European continent, the United Kingdom, Australia, India and Japan, and our executive officers and other key employees are dispersed throughout the world. This geographic dispersion requires significant management resources that may place us at a disadvantage compared to our locally-based competitors. In addition, our international operations are generally subject to a number of risks, including but not limited to:

	·	foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

	·	longer sales cycles;

	·	multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations;

	·	difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

	·	licenses, tariffs and other trade barriers;

	·	loss of proprietary information due to piracy, misappropriation or weaker laws regarding intellectual property protection;

	·	difficulties in communication and monitoring compliance with our internal corporate controls and policy;

	·	expenses associated with customizing products for foreign countries;

	·	protectionist laws and business practices that favor local competition;

	·	difficulties in collecting accounts receivable; and

	·	political and economic instability.

One or more of these risks could harm our future international sales. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected if we fail to manage the risk of doing business internationally.

Our risk exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is increasing, and we may not be able to fully mitigate the risk.

We are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates since we realize our revenues and expenses in several currencies and we translate foreign currencies into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes. Our primary exposures have related to operating expenses and sales, principally in Europe and Israel, which were not U.S. dollar-denominated. Though not the case in 2009, in prior years, our operating expenses increased in part due to exchange rate fluctuations and weakness in the U.S. dollar compared to other currencies that significantly increased the cost of our European and Israel-based operations. We continue to expand our global operations,

Page 12

and revenue recognized in currencies other than U.S. dollars may increase. In 2009, 66% of our expenses and 53% of our revenues were incurred in non-U.S. dollar currencies. We incur a portion of our expenses, principally with respect to salaries and related personnel expenses in Israel, in NIS. In 2009, 34% of our expenses were incurred in NIS. Currency fluctuations in any of the currencies in which we operate could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we have balance sheet exposure related to foreign net assets. Although we engage in non-speculative hedging transactions from time to time to minimize the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on earnings, we may not be able to fully mitigate these risks.

We may not be able to maintain the same level of profitability.

Although we recorded a profit for fiscal years 2006 through 2009, we may not generate sufficient revenues to maintain the same level of profitability in the future. To maintain the same level of profitability, we must increase our revenues while controlling our expenses. We expect to continue to incur significant sales and marketing and research and development expenses. Some of our expenses, such as administrative and management payroll and rent and utilities, are fixed in the short term, must be incurred in advance of when revenue is generated and cannot be quickly reduced if we experience revenue declines. Therefore, if our projected revenue does not meet our expectations, we are likely to experience an even larger adverse impact on our operating profit. As a result, we must generate and maintain growing revenues to maintain the same level of profitability, which we may not accomplish.

Investment Risks

Our Chief Executive Officer owns a significant percentage of our Ordinary Shares and could significantly influence the outcome of actions.

As of March 31, 2010, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Dr. Moshe BenBassat ,beneficially owned approximately 7.9% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares in the form of Ordinary Shares and options for the purchase of our Ordinary Shares. Dr. BenBassat’s wife Idit BenBassat owned approximately 5.5% of our outstanding Ordinary Shares (of which Dr. BenBassat disclaims beneficial ownership). Dr. BenBassat may be able to influence certain matters requiring approval by our shareholders, including the election of directors, or a change of control of our Company. These actions may be taken even if our other investors oppose them. The influence of our Chief Executive Officer could adversely affect our stock price.

We are incurring additional costs and devoting more management resources to comply with increasing regulation of corporate governance and disclosure.

We spend an increased amount of management time and external resources to understand and comply with changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and Nasdaq rules. Devoting the necessary resources to comply with evolving corporate governance and public disclosure standards may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention to compliance activities.

If we are characterized as a passive foreign investment company, our U.S. shareholders will be subject to adverse tax consequences.

If, for any taxable year, either, (1) 75% or more of our gross income is passive income or (2) 50% or more of the fair market value of our assets, including cash (even if held as working capital), produce or are held to produce passive income, we may be characterized as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes. As a result of our cash position and the value of our assets, we may be deemed to be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If we are characterized as a PFIC, our shareholders who are residents of the United States will be subject to adverse U.S. tax consequences. Our treatment as a PFIC could result in a reduction in the after-tax return to shareholders resident in the United States and may cause a reduction in the value of our shares. If we were to be treated as a PFIC, our shareholders will be required, absent certain elections, to pay an interest charge together with tax calculated at maximum rates on certain “excess distributions” including any gain on the sale

Page 13

of Ordinary Shares. The consequences of holding shares in a PFIC are described below under “Additional Information – United States Federal Income Tax Consequences – Passive Foreign Income Tax Consequences – Passive Foreign Investment Companies.” Prospective investors should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences applicable to them of investing in our Ordinary Shares.

Risks Relating to Our Location in Israel

We are incorporated in Israel and have important facilities and resources located in Israel, which could be negatively affected due to military or political tensions.

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel and our research and development facilities, as well as significant executive offices, are located in Israel. Although substantially all of our sales are to customers located outside of Israel, we are directly influenced by the political, economic and military conditions in Israel. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its Arab neighbors and a state of hostility, varying in degree and intensity, has led to security and economic problems for Israel. Historically, Arab states have boycotted any direct trade with Israel and, to varying degrees, have imposed a secondary boycott on any company carrying on trade with, or doing business in, Israel. Although Israel has entered into agreements with Egypt, Jordan and Palestinian representatives, there have been continued and increasing difficulties in the relationship with the Palestinians and no prediction can be made as to whether a resolution of past problems will be achieved or as to the nature of any such resolution. Beginning in September 2000, the overall relationship and security situation between Israel and the Palestinians deteriorated significantly and has been marked by frequent and continuing violence. In addition, during 2006 there occurred an outbreak of open hostilities along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon, and in 2008 there were hostilities in the Gaza Strip.

In addition, certain of our employees in our office in Israel are currently obligated to perform up to 36-45 days of annual reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces and are subject to being called for active military duty at any time. The loss or extended absence of any of our key personnel due to these requirements could harm our business.

To date, these matters have not had a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, but they may do so in the future.

Your rights and responsibilities as a shareholder will be governed by Israeli Law and differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders under U.S. law.

We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Israel. The rights and responsibilities of holders of our Ordinary Shares are governed by our memorandum of association, articles of association and by Israeli law. These rights and responsibilities may differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in U.S. corporations. In particular, a shareholder of an Israeli company has a duty to act in good faith in exercising his or her rights and fulfilling his or her obligations toward the company and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing his or her power in the company, including, among other things, in voting at the general meeting of shareholders on certain matters. Israeli law provides that these duties are applicable in shareholder votes at the general meeting with respect to, among other things, amendments to a company's articles of association, increases in a company's authorized share capital, mergers and acquisitions and transactions involving interests of officers, directors or other interested parties which require the shareholders' general meeting's approval. In addition, a controlling shareholder of an Israeli company or a shareholder who knows that he or she possesses the power to determine the outcome of a vote at a meeting of our shareholders, or who has, by virtue of the company's articles of association, the power to appoint or prevent the appointment of an office holder in the company, or any other power with respect to the company, has a duty of fairness toward the company. The Israeli Companies Law, or the Companies Law, does not establish criteria for determining whether or not a shareholder has acted in good faith. Moreover, the law is relatively new and there is no case law available on the duty of a non-controlling shareholder to act in good faith.

Page 14

It may be difficult to effect service of process and enforce judgments against directors, officers and experts in Israel.

We are incorporated and maintain significant operations in Israel. Some of our executive officers and directors and the Israeli accountants named in this annual report reside outside the United States and a significant portion of our assets and the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. Therefore, it may be difficult for an investor, or any other person or entity, to affect service of process on us or any of those persons or to enforce a U.S. court judgment based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, against us or any of those persons, in an Israeli court. Additionally, it may be difficult for an investor or any other person or entity to enforce civil liabilities under U.S. federal securities laws in original actions instituted in Israel.

We are subject to anti-takeover provisions that could delay or prevent our acquisition by another entity.

Provisions of Israeli corporate and tax law and of our articles of association may have the effect of delaying, preventing or making more difficult any merger or acquisition of us. In addition, any merger or acquisition of us will require the prior consent of the office of the chief scientist, or the Chief Scientist, as well as the Investment Center of the Israeli Ministry of Industry, Trade and Employment (the “Investment Center”). Israeli law regulates mergers, votes required to approve a merger, acquisition of shares through tender offers and transactions involving significant shareholders. In addition, our articles of association provide for a staggered board of directors. Any of these provisions may make it more difficult to acquire us. Accordingly, our acquisition by another entity could be delayed or prevented even if it would be beneficial to our shareholders.

The government programs in which we have participated and the tax benefits we receive require us to satisfy prescribed conditions and may be delayed, terminated or reduced in the future.

We have accepted grants from the Chief Scientist that have helped us finance a portion of our research and development expenditures in Israel. In 2009, 3% of our research and development expenses were financed with grants from the Chief Scientist, compared to 2% and 3% of our research and development expenses in 2008 and 2007, respectively. Although we rely on financing provided by the Chief Scientist to a lesser extent than we did a few years ago and we have fully repaid our royalty commitments to the Chief Scientist, we must continue to satisfy the conditions of the grants. For example, if we fail to comply with the representations and covenants we made to the Chief Scientist concerning our research and development activities in Israel, we could be required to refund the amount of the benefits we have received, adjusted for interest, inflation and penalties.

In addition, we are subject to other restrictions with respect to products developed with grants from the Chief Scientist. For example, we are required to make royalty payments to the Chief Scientist based on the revenues we derive from the sale of products, technologies and services developed with the grants. Also, any know-how from the research developed with the grants from the Chief Scientist may not be transferred to third parties without prior approval of the Chief Scientist, and approval is contingent on the recipient agreeing to abide by the provisions of the Encouragement of Industrial Research and Development, 1984 (the “Research Law”), and related regulations. Also, our ability to manufacture products outside Israel without the approval of the Chief Scientist is restricted under Israeli law and we are required to pay increased royalties to the Chief Scientist of up to 300% with respect to any products manufactured outside Israel. Since we conduct all of our manufacturing activities in Israel and intend to continue doing so, we do not expect any increase in the amount of royalties we pay to the Chief Scientist.

We are also eligible for certain tax benefits for the first several years in which we generate taxable income from two of our existing capital investment programs that qualify as “Approved Enterprises” and two other programs that qualify as “Privileged Enterprises”, in each case pursuant to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments. We have not begun generating taxable income from these programs and we do not expect to utilize these tax benefits in the near future. If we fail to comply with the relevant conditions, the tax benefits we eventually receive could be partially or fully canceled. The Government of Israel may also delay, terminate or reduce these tax benefits. These tax benefits may not be available in the future at their current levels, or at all.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

4.A. History and development

Our corporate name is ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd. for both legal and commercial purposes. We were incorporated as a company under the laws of the State of Israel in 1979 and are subject to the Israeli Companies Law – 1999 (the “Companies Law”). From inception until 1996, we operated as a consulting company in the area of optimization and intelligent decision support systems. Thereafter, we transformed our business model to provide workforce and service management products and solutions. We financed our operations in the early stages of development by raising money from venture capital firms, and in 2000 from our initial public offering on the Nasdaq stock market. Our principal executive offices are located at Azorim Park, Oren Building, 94 Em Hamoshavot Road, Petach Tikva 49527, Israel, and the telephone number at that location is +972-3-765-9400. Our website is located at http://www.clicksoftware.com , which is not a part of this annual report. Our wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, ClickSoftware, Inc., has been appointed our agent in the United States and is located at 35 Corporate Drive, Suite 140, Burlington, Massachusetts.

Our capital expenditures for 2009, 2008, and 2007 amounted to $2.1 million, $1.5 million, and $1.2 million, respectively. These expenditures were primarily for hardware and software and leasehold improvements. In 2009 and 2008, we invested an aggregate of $1.3 million in new office space located in Israel. We moved into these offices in March 2009. Our capital expenditures for 2007 included investments of $0.7 million following a fire in our offices in Israel in 2006. Our current capital expenditures are also primarily for hardware and software, and we expect to finance these expenditures primarily from cash on hand. In April 2009, we completed the acquisition of the workforce management business of Manchitra Services Private Ltd. (“Manchitra”), a business based in India, for approximately $2.6 million. In August 2009, we completed the acquisition of the assets of AST Solutions Group 2009, Inc. (“AST”), a business based in the United States, for approximately $1.6 million. In November 2009, we completed the acquisition of the assets of A.I. Point Ltd. (“AiPoint”), a business based in Israel, for approximately $1.5 million.

4.B. Business overview

Who We Are

We are a leading provider of software products and solutions for workforce management and optimization for the service sector. We derive revenues from the licensing of our software products and the provision of consulting and support services. We also generate revenues from hosted solutions under a “software as a service” (SaaS) model. Our products for resource optimization are aimed at the service sector where the primary resources are people and their time - both service delivery staff as well as customer time. Our products and solutions incorporate best business practices, key business functions of service operations, and sophisticated decision-making algorithms that enable our customers to more efficiently manage their service operations in a scalable, integrated manner. By offering scaled down versions of our products, or specially developed versions for medium and small business (SMB), we now address the needs of service sector companies of all sizes - from companies with 50,000 employees to companies with 5 employees. Recognizing that many large service companies today outsource or utilize external contractors, we offer capabilities in our products to support such operations under a variety of arrangements between our client and its contractors. While other service management applications, such as customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise asset management (EAM) or inventory management, manage primarily data processing aspects, our products drive optimized automatic and semi-automatic decision-making processes. Our solutions have become the backbone of service operations management in many leading organizations worldwide by addressing the fundamental question of job fulfillment: Who does What, for Whom, With what, Where and When.

Value to Our Clients

Our products are designed to markedly improve the customer experience in today’s intense and demanding service world. Our goal is to eliminate the so called “cable guy syndrome” – a situation we are all too familiar with of waiting at home endlessly for the service technician to arrive. Similarly, by optimizing staffing at contact centers and service facilities, we enable our clients to minimize waiting time for their customers when they call in for service, or when they visit service facilities. In addition to improving customer service, which by itself has substantial impact on business success and market share, we believe our products enable our clients to improve productivity, reduce travel time, reduce overtime, increase resource capacity utilization and increase overall business value. The value delivered by our products is quantifiable and can be measured

Page 16

by business metrics that directly impact the financial results of our clients . These metrics include, for instance, impact on revenues derived from improvements in productivity as measured by an increase in the number of jobs delivered, or impact on operating profit. With our products, our clients can scale up their revenues and profits faster than the scale up needed in their cost of operation in order to achieve their business growth.

Methodically Expanding the Industry Verticals We Address

Over the years we have been methodically expanding- and continue to expand- the industry verticals we address. Historically our focus was on mobile workforce for field service operations, including utility (electricity, gas and water) companies, telecommunication, computer and office equipment, medical equipment, and the like. A typical scenario would be optimal resource and time slot allocation for a stream of incoming service calls to install, repair or service customer or infra-structure equipment. With the introduction of enhanced shift scheduling (rostering) products in 2009, we have now expanded to cover industry verticals that operate a shift-based workforce - 24x7 or more than one shift. These verticals include public security operations such as police, fire and first-aid forces, airport security and other services, transportation, health care and hospitals, contact centers, retail stores, and more. A typical scenario involves the assignment of people to shifts in such a way that estimated customer demand for service is optimally covered.

In-House vs. Field Service Daily Management

Field service operations that operate more than one shift clearly require shift scheduling and management. However, a significant portion of the shift-based market is made up of in-house service companies where the customer comes to the service location to receive service , e.g. hospitals, retail or airports. This aspect differs from field service operations - where the technician goes to the customer location. In field service operations, the basic time units in daily management are job duration at customer sites and travel time from customer to customer. On the other hand, in many in-house service operations the basic time units for daily management are shifts, e.g. 7AM to 3PM, 3PM to 11PM, etc. Many in-house service operations also include intra-day scheduling, such as call routing in contact centers or gate switching of airport security agents within a given shift. One of our unique differentiators is the ability to address a wide range of field service and in-house service scenarios - from operations with relatively low changes during the day to companies with high rates of dynamic changes requiring real time workforce optimization. By expanding into optimization solutions for the in-house service markets, we increased considerably the size of our addressable market.

Internal and External Interoperability

Our products operate on the same software architecture with extensive interoperability within our own products, as well as with external products. In 2009 we released Version 8 of our product suites which are based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) -- a structure which, we believe, is gradually becoming the standard in the software industry. This architecture enables interoperability via web services and greatly facilitates integration with the outside world. The ease with which our products can be integrated with leading CRM, enterprise resource planning, or ERP and EAM solutions, often with standard interface adaptors, enables our customers to efficiently deploy our solutions.

Implementation Methodology and Implementation Partners

We also invested in the development of a methodology and a set of tools to support implementation processes which have evolved in a way that streamlines the deployment phase and shortens “time to value.” This methodology and the tool set are used by both our internal project teams as well as by certified implementation partners.

Service Chain Optimization: Beyond Daily Management

A service operation is ultimately measured by its performance at the day of service. Our products for daily management are mission critical applications that manage incoming jobs from the moment a job is opened until it is successfully closed. Our products are able to perform a number of tasks, including generating the appointment time for a customer, assigning the job to the appropriate technician, designing the optimal route for the technician to minimize travel, and monitoring progress.

A typical day in a field service operation starts with the morning schedule that contains the assignments for all the work orders of the day. As the day develops, emergencies may arise, cancellations may occur, jobs may take longer or shorter than expected, and traffic problems may cause unexpected delays. These contingencies present significant challenges and an effective workforce management solution must minimize the disruptions to the existing work orders while accommodating the new emergency orders that must be delivered on the

Page 17

same day. Integrating real-time updates from the technician’s mobile devices and/or GPS-based location reporting devices with our decision-making algorithms, our solutions offer comprehensive coverage to address these challenges and help ensure that the work-plan is continually optimized.

The maturity of mobile devices and GPS technology offer unique opportunities to continually optimize service delivery execution. We believe that handheld data communication devices and GPS location reports can be used far beyond their traditional role of data transmission to and from the field. These tools can be used for real-time decision-making in order to increase productivity and customer responsiveness. For instance, our products and solutions enable a concept known as “drip feed” management by which, initially, every technician receives only the first two tasks of the day. Upon completing the first task, the technician confirms task completion and a new task is assigned. This technique contributes to improved priority management, travel minimization and customer responsiveness. Similarly, with a GPS reporting system, the dispatcher need not ask technicians where they are located since he or she knows at all times where every technician is located, generating additional efficiencies by improved customer-technician assignments.

Our solutions constantly monitor the incoming list of new tasks at all levels of frequency in full synchronization with the delivery status of the existing tasks and the availability of technicians and spare parts in order to maximize productivity and output while complying with promised delivery dates and other business rules.

The decision-making support our products offer does not start on the day of service. By the time we reach the day of service, the workforce's size and skill mix have already been decided down to the name of the individuals and the shift each one of them will be staffing on that day. This capacity is the result of a sequence of decisions, some of which may have been made as long as a year or more in advance. In the period just before the day of service people are assigned to shifts for the coming weeks in a way that their quantity and skill mix can cover the expected demand for each hour of the day/week. In the months prior to staffing the shifts for a given week, the user can first ensure that an adequate capacity of people mix by skill and geographies will be available to select from the personnel available for the shifts, e.g. approving vacation requests, sending people to training and signing up sub-contractors for certain amounts of work . Hiring options at this stage are fairly limited. This stage is for "master" planning, also known as tactical resource planning.

Several months prior to the day of service, capacity planning takes place. This phase involves determining the size and the skill mix in each territory as a function of the company's strategic plan and forecasted demand for customer service. For example, the company may wish to expand or shrink its business lines or territories or introduce new products. At this stage, sufficient time is available for hiring and training new employees or relocating or re-training existing employees. For each of these decision-making stages, a key input is demand forecasting by job type and territories with the time accuracy required for that stage.

This concept of continuous optimization over the decision making time horizon is known as “service chain optimization,” an idea pioneered by us in the 1990’s and for which a U.S. patent was awarded (see “Intellectual Property” below).

Our products cover the needs of companies across the entire service decision making chain. This holistic approach streamlines operations across all levels and functions in the organization from executives to forecasters and planners all the way to regional service mangers, dispatchers and individual resources, e.g. technicians .

Solutions, Products and Services

Our solutions are grouped into four main suites which together comprise our Service Optimization Suite:

Field Service Daily Suite – covers automatic decision making and optimization support to manage field service operations: commencing from appointment booking and scheduling during the period around the day of service, followed by real time scheduling and optimization during the day of service and culminating with reports and business metrics analytics after the day of service.

Page 18

Mobility Suite – covers the needs of the mobile individual and back-office staff for field data communication, such as sending jobs from the back office to the person’s hand-held device, and the person’s ability to accept/decline the job, report on progress and job completion, as well as capturing customers’ signatures, or sending the person’s own time sheet to the back office. Extensive geography support, such as travel guidance and information about underground equipment are also covered. Together with the Field Service Daily Suite, the Mobility Suite offers a complete solution for the real time service enterprise which is another concept pioneered by us. A standalone version of the mobility suite is offered for such clients where automated and optimized dispatch and scheduling is either not required or already covered by another solution.

Roster (Shift Planning) Suite – covers shift planning needs for both the manager as well as the employee to optimize the balance between staffing levels needed for serving customers and managing labor costs, and employee preferences. This suite is offered in several configurations for different industry verticals ranging from police forces to contact centers, and more.

Forecasting and Planning Suite - is designed to address the mid-term and long-term needs of the service sector for forecasting customer demand and accordingly planning staffing levels – quantities and skill mix- in the various territories and business lines.

The following comprise the individual products of the above suites. Certain products may be offered as part of several suites.

ClickSchedule optimizes service scheduling and routing to improve workforce productivity by balancing customer, service and asset resources, and organizational preferences, including contractual commitments, priority, drive time, skills, and service and asset resources availability. Configuration capabilities, a high degree of scalability and use of standard service oriented architecture compliant web services interface coupled with graphic mapping tools are designed to ease and improve integration with other enterprise systems and deployment according to organizational business policies and processes. ClickSchedule is our main software platform and accounted for the majority of our license revenues in each of 2009, 2008 and 2007.

ClickAnalyze provides reporting, monitoring and service business analytics for workforce performance measurement and strategic decision support. ClickAnalyze enables analysis of key performance indicators, including resource productivity, operational costs, and responsiveness to customers. Integrated within the Service Optimization Suite, ClickAnalyze provides executive level summaries, as well as operational detailed reporting and analysis by territory, job type, time frame and other criteria.

ClickMobile provides wireless workforce management for monitoring field workforce activities and reducing the labor costs associated with dispatching personnel. ClickMobile enables job detail notification from the field and allows for field updates even when service resources are out of wireless coverage. Assignments created in ClickSchedule are dispatched to field devices based on configurable workflows while enabling real-time visibility into workforce activity, including job status and start and end time.

ClickLocate (LBS) captures the location information of a field service engineer and/or his or her vehicle obtained via GPS or other technology and integrates it with ClickSchedule for use in optimized scheduling. LBS then enables service organizations to improve their service operations by allowing them to make decisions and take actions based on location information, including near real-time engineer locations. In effect, LBS enables service managers to “see” the current location of the entire mobile workforce at one time.

ClickContact is a customer interaction management solution that enables self-service appointment booking, order updating, automatic customer notifications and customer satisfaction surveying. From scheduling the initial appointment through enabling a post-service follow-up survey, ClickContact provides enhanced customer interaction management throughout the service lifecycle.

ClickRoster provides interactive and automated workforce shift planning based on forecasted workload by quantities and skill requirements, rules and regulations, working contracts, engineer skills, calendar and preferences.

ClickPlan provides interactive and automated workforce planning for staffing and deployment of the field workforce based on forecasted workload. ClickPlan is designed to enable service organizations to resolve

workforce shortages and surpluses weeks and months in advance. Comparing available resources to forecasted workloads, ClickPlan helps determine the best strategy to ensure the right people are in the right place at the right time.

ClickForecast provides field service workload forecasting to enable companies to project workforce capacity. ClickForecast can combine historical service workload with future business events to create a forecast for each territory, job type, or business unit. ClickForecast enables service managers, marketing, and sales to collaboratively determine the demand levels of customers, and to create multiple forecast scenarios, each with different business assumptions.

Additionally, we offer variations of our products for certain vertical markets, including:

Mid-Market Package - Installation, Maintenance and Repair Services (ClickIMRS) is a pre-configured package that has been tailored to the needs of small and mid-sized companies. IMRS encompasses order management, optimized scheduling and operational reports and is based on our Service Optimization Suite and best practices that we have gained from our extensive experience with small and medium-sized customers in the home appliance, computer and office equipment, industrial equipment and other industries. IMRS features pre-configured scheduling and reporting that reduces the expense, time and effort typically required to custom-design and program schedules and reports. In addition, the ready-to-use reports provide insight into service operations and streamline decision-making on the part of both service management and dispatchers.

Service Tycoon is a web-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application that addresses the needs of small and medium sized service businesses. Our recent acquisition of AST enabled us to launch the Service Tycoon application. This product allows companies to be up and running in a few hours, rather than days or weeks, with a service solution that addresses the key needs of service businesses (scheduling appointment, quoting and following up with customers), providing better customer service and management, billing and payment.

Our solutions are designed to deliver improvements in:

	·	workforce productivity

	·	responsiveness to customers

	·	customer service experience

	·	profitability of the service operation

	·	reduction in missed customer commitments.

Each of our services engagements follows a structured implementation methodology which has proven successful in dozens of customer implementations. This methodology includes the following phases: planning, requirements gathering, design, delivery, training, testing, go-live and transition to worldwide support organization. Each phase requires the cooperation of and contributions from the customer in order to ensure a successful delivery.

Principal Markets

We have over 150 enterprise customers and dozens of smaller customers. Our service optimization solutions are utilized by leading organizations in a number of service industry segments, including: utilities and energy, telecommunications, retail, insurance, high-technology, computer and office equipment, industrial equipment, medical equipment, building automation, public security, and home services. In recent years, we have seen strong demand in the utility and telecommunication markets, which have benefited from strong market demand for their products and services as well as deregulation and modernization trends.

We sell our products to a broad base of customers representing a variety of industries with unique needs. During 2009, our five largest customers together accounted for approximately 37% of our revenues. See Item 3.D – Risk factors “If our relationships with our key customers are terminated, our revenues will decline and our business will be adversely affected.”

Page 20

With the introduction of additional product suites as described above we expanded our addressable market in a significant way:

	(a)	The Mobility Suite enables us to penetrate a field service client from a new entry point thus broadening the range of potential prospects to those who may not yet be ready for optimization but are looking for a mobile solution.

	(b)	With our new Rostering Suite for field service and in-house service companies we address a very large group of new prospective clients, e.g. the public security sector, contact centers, retail and health care.

	(c)	Additionally, we believe that our SMB offering ClickIMRS and the new Service Tycoon hosted offering will enable us to address the needs of medium and small businesses, further expanding the service sector companies that we address.

These three offerings join our traditional optimization products for the large enterprise market thus creating four growth engines to drive our business in the years to come. We remain focused on the service sector, and intend to capitalize on the positive synergies between the four growth engines to create force multipliers. For example, most enterprise field operations require a mobility solution. Thus a client for the Field Service Daily Suite is also a candidate for the Mobility Suite and vice versa. Many enterprise field operations employ small contractors that can use the SMB solutions, and via integration of the two a win-win situation is created to streamline the interaction between a service provider and its contractors. Finally, many in-house service operations that face intra-day scheduling challenges can also use our classic scheduling products.

Sales and Marketing Channels

We market and sell our products mostly through our direct sales force located in North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region, as well as through reseller agreements with partners. We continue to create and strengthen partner relations. Our multidisciplinary sales teams consist of field sales executives, sales support consultants and internal sales staff. The internal sales staff is responsible for generating leads and screening prospective customers. Sales support engineers assist the sales executives in the technical aspects of the sales process, including preparing demonstrations and technical proposals. Our sales executives are responsible for completing the sales process and managing the post-sale customer relationship, which consists of ongoing relationship management and the sale of additional licenses and products. Our management also takes an active role in our sales efforts. The knowledge gained by our sales and marketing force is also communicated to our product marketing group, which guides our development team. This enables our organization to align the functionality of our products with customer needs.

We typically direct our sales and marketing efforts to the customer’s executive officers, including the vice president of customer service, the chief information officer, the chief financial officer and other senior executives responsible for improving customer service at our customers' organization. To effectively promote product awareness, we engage in marketing activities in a wide variety of areas, including public relations and analyst relations, email campaigns, web seminars with our customers and industry analysts, newsletters and advertising creation and placement, direct mailings and trade shows.

Our alliances organization supports joint marketing activities with our business partners. Our business relationships with large ERP, CRM and EAM vendors enable us to use our partners' market presence and sales channels to create additional revenue opportunities. Our strategy is based on establishing and maintaining relationships with approved certified adaptors that enable rapid integration and implementation of our products into other major ERP, CRM and EAM systems. In 2008, we achieved “Gold Certified Partner” status with Microsoft Corporation and maintain a sales channel to build our relationship with Microsoft Corporation resellers for Dynamics AX and Dynamics CRM as the primary “route-to-market” for IMRS.

We also market our products and services through resellers. Our reseller agreements generally provide each party with the right to use the other's name in marketing and advertising materials, and to conduct joint marketing programs. We provide sales materials and training to resellers on the marketing, selling and implementation of our solutions. We believe these relationships can extend our presence and brand name in new and existing markets, including the small and medium-sized business market.

In 2008, we entered into a global reseller agreement with SAP AG, pursuant to which SAP will resell certain of our products. Our products are included on SAP’s global pricelist in specified bundles, and sold under the standard SAP end-user license agreement and global support commitments. We believe that our alliance with

Page 21

SAP increases our presence in our existing markets and assists with introducing our products into new markets.

We also have established relationships with large System Integrator (SI) organizations, such as Accenture Ltd. and International Business Machines Corporation (IBM). These SIs provide various levels of resources to integrate, customize and implement our solutions. Depending on the strength of the relationship, we have co-invested in jointly developing industry-specific solutions, training and certifying the partner's professional services teams, developing co-marketing programs, and incorporating our products into their marketing/referral strategies. In addition, in 2004 we formed a strategic alliance with IBM, pursuant to which we teamed with IBM to resell our service optimization solutions.

Our Channel Sales Team maintains a Channel Partner Program to complement the efforts of our existing reseller programs and to highlight the benefits of our IMRS product offering to small to medium sized customers. The Channel Partner Program aims to improve our partners' business practices, increase their opportunity landscape and expand their footprint in the mobility and service optimization arena. The Channel Partner Program provides a framework for recruiting, training and enabling channel partners to become more self sufficient in their mission to promote solution integration activities combining our offerings. The Channel Sales Team aims to execute the Channel Sales Program in order to penetrate the mobility and service optimization mid-market. The Channel Sales Team recruits, enables, trains and certifies channel partners to sell and implement our new products for the mid–market, starting with IMRS.

Acquisitions in 2009

In April 2009, we completed the acquisition of the workforce management business of Manchitra, a business based in India, for approximately $2.6 million. These assets were transferred to our newly formed subsidiary, ClickSoftware India Private Limited. We believe that this acquisition enables us to strengthen our local presence in this region and provides us with an implementation and delivery vehicle in India to provide a new range of benefits to customers in that region. We also believe that the acquisition may provide us with a base from which to pursue off-shore research and development activities as well as implementation service outside of India.

In August 2009, we completed the acquisition of the assets of AST for approximately $1.6 million. This acquisition enabled us to launch the Service Tycoon product. We believe that this acquisition provides us with a platform to penetrate the market for small and medium sized service organizations.

In November 2009, we completed the acquisition of the assets of AiPoint for approximately $1.5 million. This acquisition expands ClickRoster’s functionality by adding a contact center shift-planning functionality. We believe that this acquisition enables us to strengthen our overall shift planning offering.

Competition

The market for our products is competitive and rapidly changing. Competition may increase in the future as the service optimization market gains size and increased business focus, current competitors expand their product offerings, and new companies enter the market. See Item 3D – Risk factors – “We face competition, which could make it difficult to compete successfully.”

In 2009, Gartner, an independent consulting company, identified us among a select group of companies included in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Field Service Management. We were positioned in the "visionaries" quadrant along with just two other companies, both far below us on the “Ability to Execute” axis. The Aberdeen Group, another independent consulting company, identified us in its Mobile Field Services Axis Q1 2009 report as a top performer “Champion” among mobile field service software solution or platform providers.

The principal competitive factors in the service optimization industry are:

	·	the technological capabilities and performance of the solution;

	·	installed base, domain expertise and experience with large-scale implementations; and

	·	the acceptance and adaptability of the service optimization solution to the solution offerings of large SIs and CRM/ERP vendors, and the ability to form marketing alliances with the foregoing.

Page 22

We believe our solutions compare favorably with our competitors' solutions based on these competitive factors. Other key competitive factors include a broad base of users, strategic alliances, key reference customers, interoperability, integration of complementary products and services, technological leadership, product performance, price, customer support, name recognition, relationships with partners and distribution channels, the ability to respond quickly to emerging opportunities and our financial strength.

Our current and potential competitors include:

	·	software application vendors that offer workforce management solutions with certain optimization modules as part of their overall offerings, including, but not limited to, ServicePower Technologies plc., Ventyx, TOA Technologies and Astea;

	·	in the low-end market, traditional small scale ERP and CRM software application vendors;

	·	systems integrators and internal information technology departments that may elect to develop a solution in-house;

	·	software vendors developing solutions that compete with our shift management solutions, such as Quintiq, Kronos and Verint; and

	·	mobile field service vendors such as Syclo and Antenna Software.

Intellectual Property

We believe that the improvement in our existing products and technologies and the development of new products are important in establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage.

We have been issued three patents. One of these patents was issued in the United States and describes a method and system for assigning human resources to provide services. We own a similar patent in Israel. A third patent relates to workforce collaboration on real-time problem resolution and automatic reuse of the discussion for solving similar problems in the future. We also have three patent applications pending in the United States and three patent applications pending in Israel. As we continue to develop new applications of our products, we will consider submitting additional patent applications. Patents may not issue from any of these pending applications and, even if patents do issue, the claims allowed may not be sufficiently broad to protect our technology. In addition, patents issued to us may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, and the rights granted thereunder may not adequately protect us.

We own U.S. trademark registrations for the marks CLICKSOFTWARE, W6, W-6, AITEST , CLICKSCHEDULE , CLICKANALYZE, CLICKFIX, CLICKFORECAST , CLICKMOBILE and CLICKPLAN , and have filed applications for registration of the marks OPTIMIZE TO GOALS, SERVICE TYCOON and CLICKROSTER . In the European Community, we own trademark registrations for CLICKFIX , CLICKSCHEDULE , CLICKANALYZE, CLICKFORECAST , CLICKMOBILE and CLICKPLAN, and have filed applications for registration of the marks CLICKROSTER and SERVICE TYCOON . We own a U.K. trademark for CLICKSOFTWARE . In Israel, we own the marks CLICKMOBILE , CLICKSOFTWARE , W6 and W-6 . In India we filed applications for registration of the marks CLICKSOFTWARE and CLICKSCHEDULE .

Our success and ability to compete substantially depend on our internally developed technology, which we protect through a combination of trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, patents and intellectual property law, together with non-disclosure and invention assignment agreements. These legal protections provide only limited protection. See Item 3.D – Risk factors – “Our intellectual property could be used by third parties without our consent because protection of our intellectual property is limited” and this Item 4.B – Business Overview - “Competition”. Although we rely on a combination of means by which to protect our intellectual property, we believe that factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel, new product developments, frequent product enhancements and reliable product maintenance are more essential to establishing and maintaining a technology leadership position than intellectual property protection.

We generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our customers, partners, employees and consultants and generally control access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. Also, our end-user licenses are designed to prohibit unauthorized use, copying and disclosure of our software and technology in the United States, Israel and other countries.

Page 23

Substantial litigation regarding technology rights exists in the software industry, and we expect that software products may be increasingly subject to third-party infringement and ownership claims as the number of competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlap. See Item 3.D – Risk factors – “Our technology and other intellectual property may be subject to infringement claims”.

Regulation

We do not operate in a market governed by specific regulations but our business is affected by certain government regulations. For example, our ability to manufacture products outside Israel without the approval of the Chief Scientist is restricted under law and we are required to pay increased royalties to the Chief Scientist of up to 300% with respect to any products manufactured outside Israel. See Item 3.D – Risk factors – “The government programs in which we have participated and the tax benefits we receive require us to satisfy prescribed conditions and may be delayed, terminated or reduced in the future.” Also, any merger or acquisition of us will require the prior consent of the Chief Scientist, as well as authorization from the Investment Center. In addition, we spend an increased amount of management time and external resources to understand and comply with changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, new SEC regulations and Nasdaq rules. See Item 3.D – Risk factors – "We are incurring additional costs and devoting more management resources to comply with increasing regulation of corporate governance and disclosure."

4.C. Organizational structure

Our directly and indirectly held principal operating, wholly-owned subsidiaries and their countries of incorporation are:

	·	ClickSoftware, Inc. (United States)
	·	ClickSoftware Central Europe GmbH (Germany)
	·	ClickSoftware Europe Limited (United Kingdom)
	·	ClickSoftware Belgium N.V. (Belgium)
	·	ClickSoftware Australia Pty Limited (Australia)
	·	ClickSoftware Japan KK (Japan)
	·	ClickSoftware India Private Limited (India)

4.D. Property, plants and equipment

We have a lease for approximately 33,000 square feet of office space located in Petach Tikva, Israel. This lease expires in January 2014 and includes an option allowing us to extend the lease term to January 2019. This office space is used for management, marketing, sales and research and development.

We have a lease for approximately 8,800 square feet of office space located in Burlington, Massachusetts. This office space is used for sales, marketing and implementation activities for the North American market. We recently signed an amendment to the lease which provides that starting in the first half of 2010 we will lease a larger area (total space to be approximately 16,000 square feet) in the same building for a minimum period of 4 years.

Our U.K. subsidiary operates from a leased facility of approximately 5,300 square feet located in Burnham, near London. This lease expires in March 2013. The office space is used for sales, marketing and implementation activities for the European market. We also lease additional smaller offices in various sites throughout Europe and Asia.

We consider that our current office space is sufficient to meet our anticipated needs for the foreseeable future and is suitable for the conduct of our business.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

Overview

We derive revenues from the licensing of our software products and the provision of consulting and support services. We recognize revenues in accordance with the ASC 985-605-15 (originally issued as AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” or SOP 97-2), as amended (see Note 2 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included later in this annual report).

Service revenues are comprised of revenues from consulting, training, and post-contract customer support. Consulting services are billed at an agreed-upon rate, plus incurred expenses. Customers licensing our products generally enter into consulting agreements with us. Post-contract customer support arrangements provide technical support and the right to software updates. Post-contract customer support revenues are charged as a percentage of license fees depending on the level of support coverage requested by the customer. Our support contracts typically renew automatically for successive 12-month periods, unless the customer informs us of its desire not to renew.

Following our acquisition of AST in 2009 we also derived revenues from subscription-based hosted services (SaaS). Such revenues constituted an immaterial amount in 2009.

Highlights

Our revenues grew by 17% in 2009 compared to 2008, representing growth in North America, Europe and Asia, and entirely due to growth in service revenues. Our growth was primarily attributable to our ability to attract large customers – mainly in the utility and telecommunications markets, strong repeat business and increased revenues derived via our resellers.

We reported positive net income in the last four years. Net income for 2009 was $12.5 million compared to $8.1 million in 2008. We generated $7.5 million in positive cash-flow from operations in 2009.

As of December 31, 2009, our cash and cash-equivalents, and short and long-term investments increased to $35.0 million from $32.0 million as of December 31, 2008.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses, assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements.

On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, judgments and assumptions, including those related to revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation and goodwill and other intangible assets. We base our estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and forecasts, and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue results are difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenues or delay in recognizing revenues could cause our operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses. In addition, the timing of our revenue recognition influences the timing of certain expenses, such as commissions and royalties. We follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenues; however, certain judgments affect the application of our revenue recognition policy.

Our revenues are principally derived from licensing the rights to use our software and sales of professional services, including consulting, implementation and training. We recognize revenues in accordance with ASC 985-605-15 (originally issued as SOP 97-2). Revenues from software license fees are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, either by written agreement or a purchase order signed by the customer, the software product has been delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, and collection of the license fees is considered probable.

Page 25

License fees from software arrangements that involve multiple elements, such as consulting, training and post-contract customer support, are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair values of the elements. We determine the fair value of each element in multiple-element arrangements based on vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE. We determine the VSOE for each element according to the price charged when the element is sold separately. For post-contract customer support, we determine the VSOE based on the renewal price charged. For other services, such as consulting and training, we determine the VSOE based on the fixed hourly/daily rate charged in stand-alone service transactions. Under the residual method, consideration is allocated to undelivered elements based upon the VSOE of those elements, with the residual of the arrangement fee allocated to and recognized as software license revenue.

Arrangements that include professional services are evaluated to determine whether those services are essential to the functionality of other elements of the arrangement. When services are considered essential, revenue under the arrangement is recognized using contract accounting. When services are not considered essential, revenue allocable to the services is recognized as the services are performed.

Revenue from software licenses that require significant customization, integration and implementation are recognized based on ASC 605-35-05 (originally issued as SOP 81-1) “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts,” using contract accounting on the percentage-of-completion method, based on the relationship of actual working hours incurred to total working hours estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract. In recognizing revenues based on the percentage-of-completion method, we estimate time to completion with revisions to estimates reflected in the period in which changes become known. If we do not accurately estimate the resources required or the scope of work to be performed, or do not manage our services properly within the planned periods of time or satisfy our obligations under the contracts, then future services margins may be significantly and negatively affected or losses on existing contracts may need to be recognized. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are first determined, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract.

Service revenues are comprised of revenues from consulting, training, and post-contract customer support. Revenues from consulting services are recognized on a time and material basis, or in a fixed price contract, on a percentage of completion basis. Revenues from training are recognized as the services are provided. Post-contract customer support arrangements provide for technical support and the right to unspecified updates on an if-and-when-available basis. Revenues from these arrangements are recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement, usually one year.

We categorize revenue as either software license revenue or services revenue. We allocate revenue to each of these categories based on the VSOE for elements in each revenue arrangement and based on the application of the residual method for arrangements in which we have established the VSOE for all undelivered elements. Where we are unable to establish the VSOE for all undelivered elements, we take a systematic approach, whereby we first allocate revenue to any undelivered elements for which the VSOE has been established, and then allocate revenue to any undelivered elements for which the VSOE has not been established based on management’s best estimate of the fair value of those undelivered elements. We then apply a residual method to determine the license fee. Management’s best estimate of fair value of undelivered elements for which the VSOE has not been established is based upon the VSOE of similar offerings and other objective criteria.

We also enter into software arrangements with resellers whereby revenues are recognized upon sale through to the end user by the reseller.

Our standard payment terms are between 30 and 120 days. Our policy is not to grant extended payment terms to our customers over 120 days.

We generally do not grant a right-of-return to our customers. We generally provide a warranty period for three months at no extra charge. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the provision for warranty cost was immaterial.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts using estimates that we make based on factors we believe appropriate, such as the composition of the accounts receivable aging, historical bad debts, changes in payment patterns, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. If we used different assumptions, or if the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make

Page 26

payments, additional provisions for doubtful accounts would be required and would increase our bad debt expense.

In judging the probability that we will be able to collect software license fees, we continuously monitor collection and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based on our historical experience generally, as well as our experience with specific customers. In connection with customers with whom we have no previous experience, we typically utilize public financial information or independent resources to evaluate the creditworthiness of these customers. We perform on-going credit evaluations of our customers.

Stock-Based Compensation

We measure Stock-Based Compensation cost at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. We estimate the fair value of employee stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model based on the market value of the underlying shares at the date of grant. We recognize compensation costs using the straight line method.

Compensation cost related to stock options is recognized in operating results (included in cost of revenues, research and development, selling and marketing, general and administrative expenses) under ASC 718-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 123R.).

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the cost of acquisition over the sum of the amounts assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed. Goodwill is subject to periodic impairment tests. Goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value.

We perform an annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 165. Which provides guidance on management’s assessment of subsequent events. Historically, management had relied on U.S. auditing literature for guidance on assessing and disclosing subsequent events. Statement No. 165 represents the inclusion of guidance on subsequent events in the accounting literature and is direct specifically to management, since management is responsible for preparing an entity’s financial statements. Statement No. 165 is not expected to significantly change practice because its guidance is similar to that in AU section 560, with some important modifications. The new standard clarifies that management must evaluate, as of each reporting period, events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date “through the date that the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued”. Management must perform its assessment for both interim and annual financial reporting periods. We do not expect that the adoption of Statement No. 165 will have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168. The FASB notes that the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, which was primarily codified into FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Standards”. ASC Topic 105 has become the single source of authoritative non governmental generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force, and related accounting literature. This standard reorganizes the GAAP pronouncements into accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. ASC Topic 105 impacts the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures as all references to authoritative accounting literature reflect the newly adopted codification. This standard applies to the Company’s consolidated financial statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Revenues increased 17% to $61.1 million in 2009, compared with $52.3 million in 2008 and $40.0 million in 2007. The growth in revenues in 2009 was attributable entirely to an increase in service revenues. The increase in services revenue was primarily due to significant projects we performed for existing customers who moved to more current versions of our product as well as an increase in the demand for professional services from new customers. In addition, the weakening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar reduced our revenue growth from about 19% to about 17%. The significant growth in revenues in 2008 was primarily attributable to an increase in the volume of products and services sold. Specifically, we attracted large customers, particularly in the telecommunications and utility markets, we generated strong repeat business, and we expanded into new vertical markets. The change in currency values against the U.S. dollar in 2008 did not have a material effect on our revenues in 2008.

In 2009, 46% of our revenues were generated in Europe (with 24% in the United Kingdom, 8% in Germany), 37% in North America (with 31% in the United States and 6% in Canada), and 16% in Asia Pacific (with 14% in Australia) and 1% in Israel. Revenues in Europe grew by $3.3 million, or 13%, compared to 2008. The increases in revenues in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific was attributed mainly to large implementation projects.

In 2008, 47% of our revenues were generated in Europe (with 21% in Germany, 15% in the United Kingdom), 36% in North America (with 28% in the United States and 8% in Canada), and 16% in Asia Pacific (with 12% in Australia) and 1% in Israel. Revenues in Europe grew by $7.0 million, or 40%, compared to 2007. The increase in revenues in Europe was attributed mainly to large repeat orders from an existing customer. The increase in revenues in Asia Pacific was attributable mainly to large implementation projects.

In 2007, 44% of our revenues were generated in Europe (with 21% in the United Kingdom, 9% in Germany), 44% in North America (with 40% in the United States), and 12% in Asia Pacific.

Software Licenses

Software license revenues were $19.3 million, or 32% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $19.8 million, or 38% of revenues, in 2008, and $15.6 million, or 39% of revenues, in 2007. The decrease in software license revenues from 2008 to 2009 of $0.5 million, or 3%, was primarily due to the impact of a large repeat order from a customer in Europe during 2008 that was not repeated in 2009 that was partially offset by increased revenues derived via our resellers. The increase in software license revenues from 2007 to 2008 of $4.2 million, or 27%, was primarily due to an increase in the volume of products sold, particularly repeat orders from existing customers in Europe.

Services

Service revenues were $41.9 million, or 68% of revenues in 2009, compared with $32.4 million, or 62% of revenues, in 2008, and $24.4 million, or 61% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in service revenues from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to significant projects we performed for existing customers who moved to more current versions of our product as well as an increase in the demand for professional services from new customers. The increase in service revenues from 2007 to 2008 was primarily due to an increase in the volume of services provided, particularly increased implementation services and post-contract support agreements.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues consists of cost of software license revenues and cost of services. Cost of software license revenues consists of expenses related to costs of software purchased or licensed for resale, royalty payments to the Chief Scientist (for 2007 and 2008) and media duplication and packaging of our products. Cost of services consists of expenses related to salaries and expenses of our professional services organizations, costs related to third-party consultants, equipment costs and royalty payments to the Chief Scientist.

Cost of revenues was $20.8 million, or 34% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $18.1 million, or 35% of revenues, in 2008 and $15.3 million, or 38% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in the cost of revenues from 2008 to 2009 and from 2007 to 2008 was primarily due to higher costs associated with meeting increased demand for our software and services.

Cost of Software Licenses

Cost of software license revenues was $2.0 million, or 3% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $1.9 million, or 4% of revenues, in 2008 and $2.4 million, or 6% of revenues, in 2007. The minor increase in cost of software license revenues from 2008 to 2009 in absolute terms was primarily due to higher costs for third-party licenses and adaptors to other ERP and CRM systems sold during 2009, offset by the repayment by us of our royalty commitments to the Chief Scientist during 2008. The decrease in cost of software license revenues from 2007 to 2008 in absolute and percentage terms was primarily due to lower costs for third-party licenses and adaptors to other ERP and CRM systems sold during 2008.

Cost of Services

Cost of service revenues was $18.9 million, or 31% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $16.1 million, or 31% of revenues, in 2008 and $12.9 million, or 32% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in the cost of services revenues from 2008 to 2009 of $2.8 million, or 17%, was primarily due to increased demand for our services. As a result, there was an increase in our related payroll expenses of $1.0 million, an increase in subcontractors' costs of $1.8 million, an increase in travel costs of $0.1 million, an increase of $0.8 million in other costs, mainly overhead and amortization of intangible assets, offset by a decrease in royalties paid to the Chief Scientist of $0.9 million due to end of commitments payments during 2008. In addition the overall impact of the weakening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2009 spread over the various expense items above decreased our costs by about $0.5 million. The increase in the cost of services revenues from 2007 to 2008 of $3.2 million, or 25%, was primarily due to increased demand for our services. As a result, there was an increase in our related payroll expenses of $1.5 million, an increase in subcontractors' costs of $0.8 million, an increase in travel costs of $0.2 million and an increase of $0.7 million in other costs, mainly overhead. In addition, the strengthening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2008 spread over the various expense items above increased our costs by about $0.6 million.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $40.3 million, or 66% of revenues, in 2009 compared with $34.2 million, or 65% of revenues, in 2008, and $24.7 million, or 62% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in gross profit from 2008 to 2009 of $6.1 million, or 18%, was primarily due to improved gross profit from our service activities and repayment of royalty commitments to the Chief Scientist in full, the final payment of which was made in 2008. The increase in gross profit from 2007 to 2008 of $9.5 million, or 38%, was primarily due to lower cost of software licenses and improved gross profit from our service activities.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses are categorized into research and development expenses, selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses. Total operating expenses were $29.2 million, or 48% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $27.9 million, or 53% of revenues, in 2008 and $23.4 million, or 58% of revenues, in 2007.

The increase in operating expenses from 2008 to 2009 of $1.3 million, or 4%, was primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses. The increase in general and administrative expenses related to our acquisition activities. We expect that operating expenses will continue to increase in 2010. The increase in operating expenses from 2007 to 2008 of $4.5 million, or 19%, reflects increases across all categories. The increases in sales and marketing expenses and research and development expenses reflect our efforts to maintain our competitive advantage in the market and capture additional market share.

Research and Development Expenses, Net

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs for product development, net of grants received from the Chief Scientist. In return for some of these grants, we are obligated to pay the Israeli government royalties as described below which are included in cost of revenues. In 2008, we completed repayment of our royalty commitments to the Chief Scientist. Software research and development costs incurred prior to the establishment of technology feasibility are included in research and development expenses as incurred. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility through the period of general market availability of the products are capitalized, if material, after consideration of various factors, including net realizable value. To date, software development costs that are eligible for capitalization have not been material and have been expensed.

Research and development expenses, net of related grants, were $6.5 million, or 11% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $6.5 million, or 12% of revenues, in 2008 and $5.8 million, or 14% of revenues, in 2007. Research and development expenses, before deduction of grants from the Chief Scientist, totaled $6.7 million for 2009, compared with $6.6 million for 2008 and $5.9 million for 2007. We received or accrued grants from the Chief Scientist in the amount of $0.2 million in 2009, compared with $0.1 million in 2008 and $0.2 million in 2007. The slight increase in research and development expenses from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to an increase of $0.2 million in other costs, mainly overhead and amortization of intangible assets, a decrease of $0.1 million in payroll expenses and an increase of $0.1 million in grants received from the Chief Scientist. In addition, the overall impact of the weakening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2009 spread over the various expense items above decreased our research and development costs by about $0.2 million.. The increase in research and development expenses from 2007 to 2008 by $0.7 million, or 12%, was primarily due to an increase of $0.4 million in payroll expenses, a decrease of $0.1 million in grants received from the Chief Scientist and an increase of $0.2 million in other costs, mainly overhead. In addition the overall impact of the strengthening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2008 spread over the various expense items above increased our research and development costs by about $0.6 million.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs for marketing and sales functions, including related travel, direct advertising costs, expenditures on trade shows, market research and promotional printing.

Selling and marketing expenses were $16.2 million, or 27% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $16.0 million, or 31% of revenues, in 2008 and $13.2 million, or 33% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in the selling and marketing expenses from 2008 to 2009 of $0.2 million, or 1%, was due to an increase of $0.3 million in payroll expenses offset by a decrease in our selling and marketing activities of $0.1 million. In addition the overall impact of the weakening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2009 spread over

Page 31

the various expense items above decreased our selling and marketing costs by about $0.6 million. The increase in the selling and marketing expenses from 2007 to 2008 of $2.8 million, or 21%, was due to an increase in the number of employees, resulting in an increase of $2.1 million in payroll expenses and an increase in our selling and marketing activities of $0.7 million. These increases reflect the hiring of additional direct-sales employees, additional investment in channel activities and additional direct marketing activities, such as trade shows and other customer events.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs for corporate functions, including information services, finance, legal, accounting, human resources, facilities, provision for doubtful accounts and costs related to our status as a public company.

General and administrative expenses were $6.4 million, or 10% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $5.4 million, or 10% of revenues, in 2008 and $4.4 million, or 11% of revenues, in 2007. The increase of $1.0 million in general and administrative expenses from 2008 to 2009 was due to an increase of $0.9 million in other general and administrative expenses such as legal, accounting and local fees primarily due to acquisition-related costs and an increase in payroll expenses of $0.1 million. In addition the overall impact of the weakening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2009 spread over the various expense items above decreased our general and administrative costs by about $0.1 million. The increase of $1.0 million in general and administrative expenses from 2007 to 2008 was primarily due to an increase in payroll expenses of $0.7 million and an increase of $0.3 million in other general and administrative expenses. In addition the overall impact of the strengthening of other currencies against the U.S. dollar in 2008 spread over the various expense items above increased our general and administrative costs by about $0.2 million.

Interest Income, Net

Interest includes interest income earned on our cash, cash equivalents and short and long-term investments, offset by interest expense, and also includes the effects of foreign currency fluctuations.

Interest income net of interest expenses, was $0.4 million, or 0% of revenues, in 2009, compared with $0.1 million, or 0% of revenues, in 2008 and $0.9 million, or 2% of revenues, in 2007. The increase in interest income from 2008 to 2009 was attributable to a combination of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in our favor, offset by lower returns on our investments due to lower interest rates. The decrease in interest income from 2007 to 2008 was attributable to a combination of losses due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and lower returns on our investments due to lower interest rates.

Other Income

In September 2006, our office located in Tel Aviv was damaged by fire. The majority of losses we suffered in the fire were covered by our insurance policies. In 2007, we recognized other income of $0.4 million, reflecting the funds we received from our insurance company in connection with this claim.

Income Taxes

Under ASC 740-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 109) , deferred tax assets are to be recognized for the anticipated tax benefits associated with net operating loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences, unless it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The adjustment is made by a valuation allowance. We established a valuation allowance for the full amount of the tax benefits since, in previous years, the realization of net operating loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences was less likely than not. For 2009, based on historical taxable income from continuing operations and projections for future taxable income, we reversed part of the valuation allowance since we determined that it is more likely than not that some of our deferred tax assets will be realized. The reversal of the valuation allowance and other adjustments to the deferred tax assets resulted in the recognition of income tax benefits of $1.2 million in 2009. The reversal of the valuation allowance and other adjustments to the deferred tax assets resulted for the first time in the recognition of income tax benefits of $1.9 million in 2008.

Our future consolidated tax expense is expected to reflect various statutory tax rates in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, Australia, Japan and India. Future tax rates may also increase due to tax withholdings by various tax authorities, which are not expected to be utilized in the foreseeable future.

Page 32

As of December 31, 2009, net operating loss carry forwards in Israel amounted to approximately $14.0 million, compared with $24.1 million in 2008. Additional tax loss carry forwards of approximately $21.0 million and $4.3 million remain attributable to our U.S. subsidiary and our European subsidiaries, respectively. The Israeli and the European net operating loss carry forwards have no expiration date. The U.S. net operating loss carry forwards will expire gradually from 2012 through 2024. Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state law provisions. The annual limitations may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.

Net Income

Net income for 2009 was $12.5 million, or $0.40 per fully diluted share, or 20% of revenues, compared with net income of $8.1 million, or $0.27 per fully diluted share, or 16% of revenues, in 2008 and net income of $2.6 million, or $0.09 per fully diluted share, or 7% of revenues, in 2007.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. A significant portion of our expenses related to our Israeli operations are incurred in NIS, and a portion of our revenues and expenses are incurred in British pounds, Euros, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars. The results of our operations are subject to fluctuations in these exchange rates. In 2009, 66% of our expenses and 53% of our revenues were incurred in non-U.S. dollar currencies. In 2009, the net effect of the change in value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies was immaterial (as revenues were negatively impacted but were offset by lower expenses). See Item 3.D – Risk factors "Our risk exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is increasing, and we may not be able to fully mitigate the risk."

5.B. Liquidity and capital resources

Our cash and investments increased by $3.0 million, or 9%, to $35.0 million as of December 31, 2009, compared with $32.0 million as of December 31, 2008, which was an increase of $7.3 million, or 29%, compared with $24.7 million as of December 31, 2007. Our primary sources of cash and investments during 2009 were cash flows of $7.5 million generated from operations and $3.2 million from exercises of employee stock options. Our primary sources of cash and investments during 2008 were cash flows of $8.5 million generated from operations and $0.2 million from exercises of employee stock options.

As of December 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15.6 million, short-term investments of $18.9 million and long-term investments of $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2009, $0.5 million in long-term investments had been deposited with banks to secure letters of credit totaling $0.5 million, which are described below. Our cash, short-term investments and long-term investments are invested or deposited primarily in low–risk and predominantly U.S. dollar denominated investments and bank deposits. The bank deposits are typically held in the form of certificates of deposit for a period of more than three months and up to 12 months and bear fixed income interest. As of December 31, 2009, these bank deposits had an average interest rate per annum of 0.9%.

Nearly all of our cash and investments are not insured by the FDIC or other similar governmental insurance limits. See Item 3.D – Risk Factors “Nearly all of our cash, cash equivalents and short and long-term investments do not benefit from deposit insurance.”

For the year ended December 31, 2009, net cash provided by operations was $7.5 million, comprising net income of $12.5 million, an increase in trade receivables of $8.6 million, an increase in deferred taxes of $1.2 million, an increase in other receivables of $1.0 million, an increase in accounts payable of $2.8 million, and an increase in deferred revenues of $0.7 million, which was partially offset by non-cash charges of $2.3 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2008, net cash provided by operations was $8.5 million, comprising net income of $8.1 million, an increase in trade receivables of $0.9 million, an increase in deferred taxes of $1.9 million, a decrease in other receivables of $0.1 million, an increase in accounts payable of $1.5 million, and a decrease in deferred revenues of $0.1 million, which was partially offset by non-cash charges of $1.7 million.

For the year ended December 31, 2007, net cash provided by operations was $4.9 million, comprising net income of $2.6 million, an increase in trade receivables of $0.4 million, an increase in other receivables of $0.5 million, an increase in accounts payable of $1.3 million, and an increase in deferred revenues of $0.3 million, which was partially offset by non-cash charges of $1.6 million.

In 2006, our office located in Tel Aviv was damaged by fire. As a result, we moved to a temporary location located in Givat Shmuel, Israel. The majority of losses we suffered in the fire were covered by our insurance policies. We finalized our claim with our insurance company in 2007. In total, we received $1.2 million from our insurance policy, of which $0.8 million was booked as proceeds from disposal of equipment and the remainder was booked as an offset of extra expenses incurred by us.

Net cash used in investment activities was $12.6 million in 2009, consisting of $4.8 million of investments in deposits, money market funds and bonds, $5.7 million was used for three acquisitions we made and $2.1 million was used for purchases of equipment and systems, including computer equipment and fixtures and furniture and for leasehold improvements (of which $0.7 million was for investment in new Company offices to which we moved in 2009). Net cash used in investment activities was $0.4 million in 2008, consisting of $1.1 million provided by investment activities consisting of and $1.5 million was used for purchases of equipment and systems, including computer equipment and fixtures and furniture and for leasehold improvements (of which $0.6 million was for investment in new Company offices to which we moved in 2009). Net cash used in investment activities was $10.1 million in 2007, consisting of $9.3 million invested primarily in deposits, $0.4 million provided by insurance company proceeds for disposal of equipment and $1.2 million used for purchases of equipment and systems, including computer equipment and fixtures and furniture and for leasehold improvements.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.2 million in 2009, $0.2 million in 2008 and $0.9 million in 2007, in each case as a result of the exercise of employee stock options.

As of December 31, 2009, we had outstanding trade receivables of approximately $16.4 million, which represented approximately 27% of revenue in 2009. As of December 31, 2008, we had outstanding trade receivables of approximately $7.8 million, which represented approximately 15% of revenue in 2008. As of December 31, 2007, we had outstanding trade receivables of approximately $6.9 million, which represented approximately 17% of revenue in 2007. Our payment terms are typically between 30 and 60 days, and do not exceed 120 days. Days sales outstanding (“DSO”), calculated based on revenues for the most recent quarter and accounts receivable at the balance sheet date, increased to 86 DSO as of December 31, 2009, compared with 50 DSO as of December 31, 2008, and 59 DSO as of December 31, 2007. The DSO increase in 2009 was due to strong bookings in December and does not reflect any change in the terms of payment or the collection pattern.

Since inception, we have received aggregate payments from the Chief Scientist in the amount of $8.7 million related to research and development. In return, we are committed to pay royalties at a rate of 3% to 5% of sales of the developed product, up to 100%-150% of the amount of grants received with annual interest of LIBOR as of the date of approval for programs approved from 1999 and thereafter. As of December 31, 2008, we had paid or accrued royalties related to the results of research and development in the amount of $8.7 million, consisting of our entire commitment to the Chief Scientist. However, even though we have repaid all grants received from the Chief Scientist, we are still subject to the restrictions in the Research Law regarding transfer of our intellectual property developed with the Chief Scientist’s funding. See Item 3.D – Risk Factors “The government programs in which we have participated and the tax benefits we receive require us to satisfy prescribed conditions and may be delayed, terminated or reduced in the future”. We received additional grants from the Chief Scientist in 2009, but such grants are not subject to royalty payment by us.

Page 34

Our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including market demand and acceptance of our products, the resources we devote to developing, marketing, selling and supporting our products, the timing and extent of establishing additional international operations, investments in computers, office equipment and office fixtures and our acquisition activities. We intend to continue investing significant resources in our selling and marketing, research and development operations in the future and expect to continue investing in computers, office equipment and office fixtures. We also intend to continue exploring acquisition opportunities.

We believe that we have sufficient cash to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

5.C. Research and development

We have invested significant time and resources in creating a structured process for undertaking all product development projects. These include documenting product requirements, specifying product features and workflow, developing software, performing quality assurance and creating documentation and packaging. Our research and development center in Israel is ISO 9001 compliant and continuously updates its software development procedures to maintain an ongoing improvement process and high quality products.

Our future research and development strategies will concentrate on strengthening our product offerings in decision support, forecasting, capacity and shift planning and monitoring and schedule optimization; continuing to enhance the technology and scalability of our products; continuing to improve our mobile and location-based capabilities; and continuing the development of offerings for specific vertical industries.

We invested $6.5 million in 2009, $6.5 million in 2008 and $5.8 million in 2007 in research and development activities.

5.D. Trend information

We operate in the rapidly evolving market for workforce management and service optimization. Workforce management spending remained strong in 2009 and in the beginning of 2010. Despite the widespread contraction in late 2008 and 2009, and the current uncertainties in the financial and credit markets, we have continued to experience strong demand for our products and services.

Large system integrators continue to build practices around the workforce management and service optimization market. Our strategy is to continue to increase marketing efforts through our channel and strategic partners to target these potential customers, side by side with our direct sales force. Companies in the mid-market are also seeking solutions to improve productivity. In 2007, we introduced our IMRS initiative and our Channel Partner Program to address demand from mid-market customers.

In 2009, the proportion of our revenues attributable to services increased, while the proportion of license revenues decreased. We expect license and services revenues to grow in absolute terms in 2010 and that the ratio of license revenues to service revenues will increase.

The global economic slowdown has adversely affected certain segments of our end-markets. For example, in 2009 we experienced lower demand from the retail and office equipment sectors. However, we experienced increased demand from other sectors, such as telecommunications and utilities. Energy Insights (an IDC company) expects information technology spending by the utility sector in the United States to accelerate dramatically, and to also grow in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), in the year 2010. According to IDC, the growth in North American utilities IT spending will reach 11% in 2010, driven by economic recovery/energy demand growth, ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009), smart grid investment and demonstration grants, and regulatory mandates for smart metering and energy efficiency. According to IDC, top IT initiatives in North America and EMEA will include work and asset management (including mobile workforce and geographical information systems).

We expect to continue to grow our revenues in 2010 despite the continued uncertainty in the economic conditions. We believe that companies focused on cost control are likely to demand products and services, such as our workforce management and service optimization solutions, that aim to maximize efficiency and decrease customers' operating expenses. We also believe that we have a healthy backlog of orders for our products and services. As of December 31, 2009, we had a backlog of approximately $27.4 million, compared to $17.9 million at the end of 2008.

Page 35

The economic uncertainties may affect the competitive environment in our industry. For example, larger, better capitalized companies may seek to acquire smaller, weaker rivals that have been adversely affected by the economic downturn. In 2009, we completed three acquisitions for a total amount of $5.7 million. Pursuant to our business strategy, we will continue to consider merger and acquisition transactions.

In 2009, approximately 53% of our revenues and 66% of our expenses were denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. Any changes in the value of the U.S. dollar against these currencies affect our reported earnings in U.S. dollars. In 2009, the net effect of the change in value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies was immaterial (as revenues were negatively impacted but were offset by lower expenses). In the beginning of 2010, the U.S. dollar has strengthened against each of the Euro and British Pound and has remained steady against the NIS. If this trend continues, it may have a positive impact on our cost of revenues and operating expenses and a negative impact on our revenues.

5.E. Off-balance sheet arrangements

Except for the arrangements with the Chief Scientist discussed in Item 5.B above and Item 5.F below, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

6.B. Compensation

The aggregate amount of compensation paid to all of our directors and officers in 2009 was $1.7 million in salaries, directors’ fees, and bonuses, compared to $1.7 million in 2008. In addition, we granted 292,500 options to our officers and directors at an average exercise price of $7.33 per share. Options expire seven to ten years after the date of the grant. The total severance obligations to our officers is $277,000 of which $247,000 is deposited in insurance policies and pension funds and $30,000 which is reserved in our financial statements.

The agreements of the executive officers provide that their engagement is “at-will” and may be terminated at any time by either us or the executive. The agreements provide that in the event the executive resigns his employment or the executive is terminated by us without cause, the executive will be entitled to severance payments in amounts equal to twelve months of annual base salary as of the date of termination for Dr. BenBassat and three months of base salary as of the date of termination for Mr. Arvatz and Mr. Carmeli (plus, in the case of Mr. Arvatz and Mr. Carmeli, a severance amount due in accordance with applicable law). Our executive officers participate in a bonus plan in which they may receive bonuses based on achieving Company goals on revenues and operating profit, and based on achieving personal performance-related goals. The goals for our Chief Executive Officer are determined on an annual basis by the Compensation Committee, and the goals for our other executive officers are determined by the Chief Executive Officer.

6.C. Board practices

We are subject to the provisions of the Companies Law, which requires, in part, that Israeli companies whose shares have been offered to the public in or outside of Israel appoint at least two external directors (as such term is defined in the Companies Law) to serve on their board of directors.

There are no service contracts between us or any of our subsidiaries, on the one hand, and our directors in their capacity as directors, on the other hand, providing for benefits upon termination of service, except for the termination provisions included in the employment agreement of officers that also act as directors and that concern solely their termination from their positions as employees.

In addition to the insurance coverage, we have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers in an amount not to exceed $20 million, for all persons and all events to be indemnified, for certain events and occurrences while the director or officer is, or was serving, at our request in such capacity. The indemnification agreements entered into with the directors and officers are substantially in the form of the Amended Form of Indemnification Agreement previously filed as an exhibit to our annual report. As permitted under the Companies Law, the indemnification agreements provide protection against personal liability. We have director and officer insurance coverage that may limit our exposure and may enable us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

External and Independent Directors

Under Israeli law, publicly held Israeli companies, such as us, are required to appoint at least two external directors, each of whom must also serve on the audit committee. All other board committees exercising powers delegated by the board of directors must include at least one external director. Our external directors must be appointed by the holders of a majority of our Ordinary Shares and must meet certain non-affiliation criteria—all as provided under Israeli law. An external director is appointed for an initial term of three consecutive years, and may be reappointed for an additional three-year term, subject to certain conditions under Israeli law.

Shai Beilis and Nira Dror each serves as an external director.

Israeli law further requires that at least one external director have financial and accounting expertise, and that at least one other external director have professional competence, as determined by the Company’s board of directors. Under relevant regulations, a director having financial and accounting expertise is a person who, due to his or her education, experience and talents, is highly skilled in respect of, and understands, business and accounting matters and financial reports, in a manner that enables him or her to have an in-depth understanding of the Company’s financial information and to stimulate discussion in respect of the manner in which the financial data is presented. Under relevant regulations, a director having professional competence is a person who has an academic degree in either economics, business administration, accounting, law or public

Page 40

administration or an academic degree in an area relevant to the Company’s business, or has at least five years experience in a senior position in the business management of a corporation with a substantial scope of business, in a senior position in the public service or in the field of the Company’s business.

Nira Dror was determined by our board of directors to be a financial and accounting expert and Shai Beilis was determined to have professional competence, each as determined by Israeli law.

Audit Committee

The audit committee consists of Dr. Nass, Ms. Dror, Mr. Beilis and Mr. Weiser, each of whom is “independent,” as such term is defined in Rule 5065(a)(2) to the Nasdaq Rules. Our board of directors has determined that Dr. Nass also qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC rules and has the requisite experience under Nasdaq Rules. The audit committee provides assistance to the board of directors in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations with respect to matters involving the accounting, auditing, financial reporting and internal control functions of our Company and our subsidiaries as well as complying with the legal requirements under Israeli law and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The purposes of the audit committee include:

	·	overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes of our Company and audits of its financial statements;

	·	recommending to our shareholders to appoint and approve the compensation of the independent registered public accounting firm engaged to audit our financial statements;

	·	overseeing and monitoring (i) the integrity of our financial statements, (ii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements as they relate to financial statements or accounting matters, (iii) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, independence and performance, and (iv) our internal accounting and financial controls;

	·	provide our board of directors with the results of its monitoring and recommendations derived therefrom;

	·	provide to our board of directors such additional information and materials as it may deem necessary to make it aware of significant financial matters that require its attention;

	·	monitor deficiencies in the management of the Company, inter alia, in consultation with the independent registered public accounting firm and internal auditor, and advise our board of directors on how to correct the deficiencies;

	·	decide whether to approve engagements or transactions that require Audit Committee approval under the Companies Law, relating generally to certain related party transactions;

	·	meet and receive reports from both the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm dealing with matters that arise in connection with their audits; and

	·	conduct any investigation appropriate to fulfilling its responsibilities, and have direct access to the independent registered public accounting firm as well as anyone in our Company.

Our audit committee convenes at least once per quarter to review our quarterly financial results and to address other matters within the committee’s responsibilities. Our audit committee duties are also governed by a written charter.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Mr. Thanos, Mr. Beilis and Ms. Dror, each of whom is “independent,” as such term is defined in Rule 5065(a)(2) to the Nasdaq Rules. Our compensation committee meets at least twice a year. Functions of the compensation committee include:

	·	to recommend to our board of directors the compensation of the Company’s executive officers;

	·	to review and evaluate the compensation plans, policies and programs of the Company; and

	·	to make recommendations to our board of directors and our shareholders relating to compensation to be provided to directors.

Our compensation committee duties are also governed by a written charter.

Page 41

Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee

Our corporate governance and nominating committee consists of Mr. Einav, Dr. Nass, Ms. Dror and Mr. Beilis, each of whom is “independent,” as such term is defined in Rule 5065(a)(2) to the Nasdaq Rules. Our corporate governance and nominating committee meets at least once a year. Functions of the corporate governance and nominating committee include:

	·	to monitor the composition of our board of directors and, when appropriate, seek, screen and recommend for nomination qualified candidates for election to our board of directors at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders;

	·	to seek qualified candidates to fill vacancies on our board of directors;

	·	to evaluate candidates identified on its own initiative as well as candidates referred to it by other members of the board of directors, by our management, by shareholders who submit names to our secretary for referral to the corporate governance and nominating committee, or by other external sources; and

	·	to evaluate the structure and practices of our board of directors and, when appropriate, recommend new policies.

Our corporate governance and nominating committee duties are also governed by a written charter.

6.D. Employees

At December 31, 2009, we employed 295 full time employees. Of these employees, 148 were based in Israel, 53 in the United States, 46 in Asia Pacific and 48 in Europe.

The following is a detailed breakdown of persons employed by main category of activity, as at December 31, 2009:

	YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
Department	2009		2008		2007

Services		123		87		79
Research and Development		67		47		52
Sales and Marketing		64		57		57
General and Administrative		41		35		32
Total		295		226		220

In addition to the number of full-time employees listed above, as at December 31, 2009 we had 40 full-time contractors in Israel (compared to 22 full-time contractors as a December 31, 2008) who work at an offsite location, focusing on quality assurance.

We believe that our relations with our employees are good. Neither our employees nor we are party to any collective bargaining agreements, except for provisions of such agreements that are applicable to the industry by virtue of extension orders issued under applicable Israeli laws.

Israeli law and certain provisions of the nationwide collective bargaining agreements between the Histadrut (General Federation of Labor in Israel) and the Manufacturer's Association of Israel (MAI) ("Bargaining Agreements") apply to our Israeli employees. These provisions principally concern the maximum length of the work day and the work week, minimum wages, paid annual vacation, contributions to a pension fund, insurance for work-related accidents, procedures for dismissing employees, determination of severance pay and other conditions of employment. We provide our employees with benefits and working conditions above the required minimums. Furthermore, pursuant to such provisions, the wages of most of our employees are subject to cost of living adjustments, based on changes in the Israeli CPI. The amounts and frequency of such adjustments are modified from time to time. Israeli law generally requires the payment of severance upon the retirement or death of an employee or upon termination of employment by the employer or, in certain circumstances, by the employee. We currently fund our ongoing severance obligations for our Israeli employees by making monthly payments for insurance policies and severance funds. Severance payment expenses, net of changes in the value the insurance policies and severance funds, amounted to $527,000 in 2009, $739,000 in 2008, and $700,000 in 2007. The decrease in 2009 was largely attributable to appreciation

Page 42

in the value of the insurance policies and severance funds. We obtain and maintain for all of our Israeli employees’ pension funds or manager's insurance as required by the Bargaining Agreements.

We typically maintain non-competition agreements with our employees which prohibit them, if they cease working for us, from directly competing with us or working for our competitors. Recently, Israeli courts have required employers seeking to enforce non-compete undertakings of a former employee to demonstrate that the competitive activities of the former employee will harm one of a limited number of material interests of the employer which have been recognized by the courts, such as the secrecy of a Company’s confidential commercial information or its intellectual property. If we cannot demonstrate that harm would be caused to us, we may be unable to enforce these non-competition agreements and our competitors may be able to benefit from the expertise of our former employees.

6.E. Share ownership

As of March 31, 2010, each of our executive officers and directors beneficially owned less than 1% of our Ordinary Shares, with the exception of Dr. Moshe BenBassat, who owned 2,497,885 shares (or 7.9% of our outstanding shares) and 799,125 options for the purchase of our Ordinary Shares and Mr. Hannan Carmeli, who owned 9,872 shares and 366,167 options for the purchase of our Ordinary Shares.

The following table summarizes information about the options for the purchase of our Ordinary Shares owned by Mr. Hannan Carmeli that were outstanding as of March 31, 2010:

RANGE OF EXERCISE PRICE $		NUMBER OUTSTANDING AT MARCH 31, 2010		NUMBER EXERCISABLE AT MARCH 31, 2010 (1)		EXPIRATION DATE
	1.22-1.75		227,000		227,000		2013-2015

			432,000		336,167

(1) Includes options for Ordinary Shares held that are exercisable within 60 days of the date stated above.

Stock Option Plans

We have established a number of employee option plans containing terms and conditions for the vesting and exercising of options granted to employees for the purchase of our Ordinary Shares.

Our umbrella stock option plan was adopted in 2000 (the “Plan”), which defines our stock option pool available to our employees worldwide. Employees outside of the United States typically receive options under a local stock option plan from the worldwide pool defined by the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, as amended, the number of ordinary shares made available under such Plan automatically increases on the first day of the Company's fiscal year to equal the lesser of: (i) 5% of the outstanding ordinary shares on such date, (ii) 1,250,000 ordinary shares, and (iii) an amount determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Evergreen Mechanism”). In accordance with the Evergreen Mechanism, the board of directors has ratified increases in reserves under the Plan in the aggregate amount of 4,250,000 and currently 2,129,665 options are available under the Plan together with shares available under the employee stock purchase plan.

Page 43

In 2001 we adopted the 2000 Approved U.K. Share Scheme for our employees located in the United Kingdom and in 2003 we adopted the 2003 Israeli Share Option Plan for our employees located in Israel, both of which were adopted under the Plan.

The purpose of the Plan is to enable us to attract and retain qualified persons as employees, officers, directors, consultants, advisors and service providers and to motivate such persons by providing them with an equity participation in us. The Plan will expire in 2014, unless terminated earlier by the board of directors.

The Plan is administered by our board of directors or a committee of our board of directors which has broad discretion, subject to certain limitations, to determine the persons entitled to receive options. Options generally have a term of between seven and ten years. Earlier termination may occur if the employee’s employment with us is terminated or if certain corporate changes or transactions occur. Our board of directors determines the grant and the exercise price at the time the options are granted.

Under the Plan, the terms and conditions under which options are granted and the number of shares subject thereto is determined by our board of directors or a committee of our board of directors. The board of directors or such committee also has discretion to determine the nature of the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of an option under the Plan. Such consideration generally consists of cash, but may include a recourse promissory note.

The Ordinary Shares acquired upon exercise of an option are subject to certain restrictions on transfer, sale or hypothecation. Options are exercisable and restrictions on disposition of shares lapse pursuant to the terms of the individual agreements under which the options were granted or the shares were issued.

The exercise price per share is usually granted at the approximate fair market value of the shares on the date of grant, as determined by the closing price for our Ordinary Shares as reported by Nasdaq on the date prior to the date of grant for stock options.

Each stock option agreement specifies the date and period over which the option becomes exercisable. Options granted by us generally vest over a period of four years. Vesting is conditional upon the employee remaining continuously employed by us.

Export Sales

Export sales in 2009 were $60.5 million, or 99.0% of revenues, compared with $51.7 million, or 98.9% of revenues, in 2008, and $39.9 million, or 99.8% of revenues, in 2007.

Legal Proceedings

10.B. Memorandum and articles of association

Securities Register

We are registered with the Israeli Registrar of Companies. Our registration number is 510829971. Section 2 of our articles of association provides that we may engage in any type of lawful business as may be determined by our board of directors from time to time.

Board of Directors

The Companies Law requires that certain transactions, actions and arrangements be approved as provided for in a company’s articles of association and in certain circumstances by the audit committee, by the board of directors itself and by the shareholders. The vote required by the audit committee and the board of directors for approval of such matters, in each case, is a majority of the disinterested directors participating in a duly convened meeting.

The Companies Law requires that an office holder in the company or a controlling shareholder in a public company promptly disclose any personal interest that he or she may have (either directly or by way of any corporation in which he or she is, directly or indirectly, a 5% or greater shareholder, director or general manager or in which he or she has the right to appoint at least one director or the general manager) and all related material information known to him or her, in connection with any existing or proposed transaction by the company, no later than the first meeting of the board of directors to discuss such existing or proposed transaction. In addition, if the transaction is an extraordinary transaction (that is, a transaction other than in the ordinary course of business, otherwise than on market terms, or is likely to have a material impact on the company’s profitability, assets or liabilities), the office holder in the company or a controlling shareholder in a public company also must disclose any personal interest held by his or her spouse, siblings, parents, grandparents, descendants, spouse’s descendants and the spouses of any of the foregoing.

Once the office holder in the company complies with the above disclosure requirement, a company may approve the transaction in accordance with the provisions of its articles of association. If the transaction is with a third party in which the office holder in the company has a personal interest, the approval must confirm that the transaction is not adverse to the company’s interest. Furthermore, if the transaction is an extraordinary transaction, then, in addition to any approval stipulated by the articles of association, it also must be approved by the company’s audit committee and then by the board of directors, and, under certain circumstances, by the shareholders.

Our articles of association provide that, all actions done bona fide at any meeting of the board of directors or by a committee thereof or by any person(s) acting as director(s) will, notwithstanding that it may afterwards be discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of the participants in such meeting or any of them or any person(s) acting as aforesaid, or that they or any of them were disqualified, be as valid as if there were no such defector disqualification.

Our articles of association provide that a director who has a personal interest in an extraordinary transaction which is brought for discussion before our board of directors or our audit committee shall neither vote in nor attend discussions concerning the approval of such transaction. If the director did vote or attend as aforesaid, the approval given to the aforesaid activity or arrangement will be invalid.

Our articles of association provide that, subject to the Companies Law, our board of directors may delegate its authority, in whole or in part, to such committees of the board of directors as it deems appropriate, and it may from time to time revoke such delegation. To the extent permitted by the Companies Law, our board of

Page 47

directors may from time to time confer upon and delegate to a President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer or other executive officer then holding office, such authorities and duties of the board of directors as it deems fit, and they may delegate such authorities and duties for such period and for such purposes and subject to such conditions and restrictions which they consider in our best interests, without waiving the authorities of the board of directors with respect thereto.

Arrangements regarding compensation of directors require the approval of the Compensation Committee, Audit Committee, our board of directors and the shareholders.

Rights, preferences and restrictions of shares

General. Our share capital is NIS 2,100,000, divided into: (i) 97,000,000 Ordinary Shares of NIS 0.02 nominal value each; (ii) 3,000,000 Non-Voting Ordinary Shares of NIS 0.02 nominal value each, and (iii) 5,000,000 Special Preferred Shares of NIS 0.02 nominal value each. We had historically issued Non-Voting Ordinary Shares pursuant to certain of our employee share option plans but all such shares were converted into Ordinary Shares on a 1:1 basis. Consequently, we currently only have Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding. Our Ordinary Shares do not have preemptive rights.

The Ordinary Shares do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors. As a result, the holders of Ordinary Shares that represent more than 50% of the voting power have the power to elect all the Directors.

Dividend and liquidation rights. Our board of directors may declare a dividend to be paid to the holders of our Ordinary Shares according to their rights and interests in our profits and may fix the record date for eligibility and the time for payment. The directors may from time to time pay to the shareholders on account of the next forthcoming dividend such interim dividends as, in their judgment, our position justifies. All dividends unclaimed for one year after having been declared may be invested or otherwise used by the directors for our benefit until claimed. No unpaid dividend or interest shall bear interest as against us. Our board of directors may determine that a dividend may be paid, wholly or partially, by the distribution of certain of our assets or by a distribution of paid up shares, debentures or debenture stock or any of our securities or of any other companies or in any one or more of such ways in the manner and to the extent permitted by the Companies Law.

Transfer of shares; record dates. Fully paid up Ordinary Shares may be freely transferred pursuant to our articles of association unless such transfer is restricted or prohibited by another instrument or securities laws. Each shareholder who would be entitled to attend and vote at a General Meeting of shareholders is entitled to receive notice of any such meeting. For purposes of determining the shareholders entitled to notice and to vote at such meeting, the board of directors will fix a record date.

Voting; annual general and extraordinary meetings. Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, each shareholder shall have one vote for each share of which he or she is the holder, whether on a show of hands or on a poll. Our articles of association do not permit cumulative voting and it is not mandated by Israeli law. Votes may be given either personally or by proxy. A proxy need not be a shareholder. If any shareholder is without legal capacity, he may vote by means of a trustee or a legal custodian, who may vote either personally or by proxy. If two or more persons are jointly entitled to a share then, in voting upon any question, the vote of the senior person who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other registered holders of the share and, for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the shareholder register.

No business shall be transacted at any General Meeting unless a quorum is present when the meeting proceeds to business. The quorum at any Meeting shall be two shareholders present in person or by proxy, holding or representing at least 33% of our total voting rights. A meeting adjourned for lack of quorum is adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and place, or any time and hour as the board of directors shall designate and state in a notice to the shareholders entitled to vote at the original meeting, and if, at such adjourned meeting, a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding the meeting any two shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, if a General Meeting is convened at the demand of shareholders as permitted by of the Companies Law, then a quorum at such adjourned meeting shall be one or more shareholders holding in the aggregate at least 5% of our issued share capital and at least 1% of our voting rights, or one or more shareholders who hold in the aggregate at least 5% of our voting rights. Rule 5620(c) to Nasdaq Rules requires that an issuer listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market should have a quorum requirement that in no case be less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the company’s common voting stock. However, as mentioned above, our articles of association, consistent with the Companies Law, provide for a lower general quorum requirement of 33% of

Page 48

our outstanding shares and even lower quorum in the event that the required quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding an adjourned meeting, or, in the case the meeting that was adjourned was convened by the shareholders, if the required quorum is not present at the time appointed for holding such adjourned meeting.

Unless a longer period for notice is prescribed by the Companies Law, at least 10 days and not more than 60 days notice of any general meeting shall be given, specifying the place, the day and the hour of the meeting and, in the case of special business, the nature of such business, shall be given in the manner hereinafter mentioned, to such shareholders as are under the provisions of our articles of association, entitled to receive notices from us. Only shareholders of record as reflected on our share register at the close of business on the date fixed by the board of directors as the record date determining the then shareholders who will be entitled to vote, shall be entitled to notice of, and to vote, in person or by proxy, at a general meeting and any postponement or adjournment thereof.

General Meetings are held at least once in every calendar year at such time (within a period of 15 months after the holding of the last preceding General Meeting), and at such time and place as may be determined by the board of directors. At a General Meeting, decisions shall be adopted only on matters that were specified on the agenda. The board of directors is obligated to call extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders upon a written request in accordance with the Companies Law. The Companies Law provides that an extraordinary general meeting of shareholder may be called by the board of directors or by a request of two directors or 25% of the directors in office, or by shareholders holding at least 5% of the issued share capital of the company and at least 1% of the voting rights, or of shareholders holding at least 5% of the voting rights of the company.

Except as otherwise provided in the articles of association, any resolution at a General Meeting shall be deemed adopted if approved by the holders of a majority of our voting rights represented at the meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairman of the meeting shall not be entitled to a further or casting vote.

Discrimination against shareholders. According to our articles of association, there are no discriminating provisions against any existing or prospective holders of our shares as a result of a shareholder holding a substantial number of shares.

Modification of Class Rights

If, at any time, the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issuance of the shares of that class) may be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of all the issued shares of that class, or with the sanction of a majority vote at a meeting of the shareholders passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of the class. The provisions of our articles of association relating to general meetings shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to every such separate general meeting. Any holder of shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a secret poll.

Unless otherwise provided by the conditions of issuance, the enlargement of an existing class of shares, or the issuance of additional shares thereof, shall not be deemed to modify or abrogate the rights attached to the previously issued shares of such class or of any other class. These conditions provide for the minimum shareholder approvals permitted by the Israeli Companies Law.

Restrictions on Shareholders Rights to Own Securities

Our articles of association and the laws of the State of Israel do not restrict in any way the ownership or voting or our shares by non-residents of Israel, except with respect to subjects of countries which are in a state of war with Israel.

Potential Issues that Could Delay a Merger

Our articles of association provides for a staggered board of directors, which could delay, defer or prevent a change of control. In addition, certain provisions of Israeli corporate and tax law may have the effect of delaying, preventing or making more difficult any merger or acquisition of us. For example, any merger or acquisition of us will require the prior consent of the Chief Scientist, as well as the Investment Center. See Item 3.D – Risk factors “We are subject to anti-takeover provisions that could delay or prevent our acquisition by another entity.”

Page 49

Requirement of Disclosure of Shareholder Ownership

There are no provisions of our memorandum of association or articles of association governing the ownership threshold above which shareholder ownership must be disclosed. We are subject, however, to U.S. securities rules that require beneficial owners of more than 5% of our Ordinary Shares to make certain filings with the SEC.

Changes in Capital

Our memorandum of association and articles of association do not impose any conditions governing changes in capital that are more stringent than required by the Companies Law.

10.C. Material contracts not in the ordinary course of business

We have entered into an employment agreement with Moshe BenBassat, our Chief Executive Officer. The agreement provides that the employment relationship is “at-will” and may be terminated at any time by either us or Dr. BenBassat with or without cause. The agreement provides that in the event Dr. BenBassat’s employment is terminated other than for cause, he will be entitled to severance payments in amounts equal to twelve months of base salary as of the date of termination. Dr. BenBassat is entitled to full acceleration of option vesting in the event of a change in control. The right to receive the contractual severance benefits set forth above will immediately terminate if Dr. BenBassat is terminated for cause, as defined in the employment agreements. The agreement provides for an annual base salary of $300,000 and an annual performance bonus not to exceed 200% of annual base salary, which amount shall be set by the Compensation Committee.

At our last annual general meeting of shareholders held on July 23, 2009, our shareholders authorized and empowered our Audit Committee and Board of Directors to structure the mechanisms and vehicles of paying Dr. BenBassat's compensation as our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO (including the possibility of a services provider directly or through a company owned by him, as opposed to an employment arrangement) and to approve any required agreement(s) relating thereto; provided that (1) the total cost to our group of companies (excluding bonuses) in U.S. dollars will not exceed the total cost of his employment during the 2008 fiscal year (excluding bonuses) according to the Employment Agreement between ClickSoftware, Inc. and Dr. BenBassat effective as of January 1, 2004, as amended (the "Current Agreement"), and (2) any new arrangement will contain the equivalent bonus and severance provisions as specified in the Current Agreement. In calculating the total cost to our group of companies, benefits according to the Current Agreement that were not fully utilized by him will be calculated as if they had been fully utilized. Dr. BenBassat terminated the Current Agreement at the end of 2009 but continues to act as our Chairman of the Board and CEO. We are in advanced stages of finalizing the legal documentation regarding a change of the structure of Dr. BenBassat's engagement to a full-time consulting arrangement according to the principles approved at our annual general meeting of shareholders.

10.D. Exchange controls

There are currently no Israeli currency control restrictions on payments of dividends or other distributions with respect to our Ordinary Shares or the proceeds from the sale of shares, except for the obligation of Israeli residents to file reports with the Bank of Israel regarding certain transactions. However, legislation remains in effect pursuant to which currency controls can be imposed by administrative action at any time.

Non-residents of Israel who purchase our securities with non-Israeli currency will be able to repatriate dividends (if any), liquidation distributions and the proceeds of any sale of such securities, into non-Israeli currencies at the rate of exchange prevailing at the time of repatriation, provided that any applicable Israeli taxes have been paid (or withheld) on such amounts.

Neither our articles of association nor the laws of the State of Israel restrict in any way the ownership or voting of Ordinary Shares by non-residents of Israel, except with respect to citizens of countries that are in a state of war with Israel.

10.E. Taxation

The following is a summary of the current tax structure, which is applicable to companies in Israel, with special reference to its effect on us. The following also contains a discussion of material Israeli and U.S. tax consequences to persons purchasing our Ordinary Shares and government programs from which we and some of our group companies benefit. To the extent that the discussion is based on new tax legislation, which has yet to be subject to judicial or administrative interpretation, there can be no assurance that the views expressed in the discussion will accord with any such interpretation in the future. The discussion is not intended and should not be construed as legal or professional tax advice and is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations. An Israeli company that is subject to Israeli taxes on the income of its non-Israeli subsidiaries will receive a credit for income taxes paid/withheld or that will be paid/withheld by the subsidiary in its country of residence, according to the terms and conditions determined in the Israeli Tax Ordinance.

The following summary is included herein as general information only and is not intended as a substitute for careful tax planning. Accordingly, each investor should consult his or her own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to such investor of the purchase, ownership or sale of an ordinary share, including the effect of applicable state, local, foreign or other tax laws and possible changes in tax laws.

Israel Corporate Tax Considerations

General Corporate Tax Structure

Income not eligible for “Approved enterprise” benefits was taxed in 2009 at a regular corporate tax rate of 26% (27% in 2008 and 29% in 2007). The tax rate was reduced in 2010 to 25%. This change does not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. The tax rate is scheduled to be gradually reduced to 18% in 2016 and beyond. However, the effective rate of tax payable by a company which derives income from an “Approved Enterprise” may be considerably lower – see discussion below.

Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959

General. Certain of our production and development facilities have been granted approved enterprise status pursuant to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (the “Investment Law”). Pursuant to the Investment Law, an Industrial Company is a company resident in Israel, if at least 90% of the income of which, in a given tax year, determined in Israeli currency (exclusive of income from some government loans, capital gains, interest and dividends), is derived from an Industrial Enterprise owned by it. An “Industrial Enterprise” is defined as an enterprise whose major activity in a given tax year is industrial production activity. The Investment Law provides that a capital investment in eligible facilities may, upon application to the Investment Center of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the State of Israel, or the Investment Center, be designated as an Approved Enterprise. Each certificate of approval for an Approved Enterprise relates to a specific investment program delineated both by its financial scope, including its capital sources, and by its physical characteristics, e.g., the equipment to be purchased and utilized pursuant to the program. The tax benefits derived from any such certificate of approval relate only to taxable income attributable to the specific Approved Enterprise. Subject to certain provisions concerning income and subject to the Alternative Benefits (see below), any distributed dividends are deemed attributable to the entire enterprise, and the effective tax rate and the effective withholding tax rates represent the weighted combination of the various applicable tax rates.

Tax Benefits . Taxable income of a company derived from an Approved Enterprise is subject to company tax at the rate of up to 25%, instead of the tax rates under the “General Corporate Tax Structure” above, for a certain period of time. The benefit period is a period of seven years commencing in the year in which the Approved Enterprise first generates taxable income. The benefits may be shorter as it is limited to 12 years from the commencement of production of the Approved Enterprise or 14 years from the date of approval, whichever is earlier. Under certain circumstances (as further detailed below), the benefit period may extend to a maximum of ten years or fifteen years (see the 2005 Amendment below) from the commencement of the benefit period. A company which operates under more than one approval or that has capital investments which are only partly approved (such a company being designated as a Mixed Enterprise), may have an effective company tax rate that is the result of a weighted combination of the various applicable rates.

Page 51

A company owning an approved enterprise which was approved after April 1, 1986 may elect to forego the entitlement to grants or state guarantees and apply for an alternative package of tax benefits. These benefits provide that undistributed income from the approved enterprise is fully tax exempt from corporate tax for a defined period, which ranges between two and ten years from the first year of taxable income, subject to the limitations described above, depending principally upon the geographic location within Israel and the type of the approved enterprise. Upon expiration of such period, the approved enterprise is eligible for a beneficial tax rate (25% or lower in the case of an FIC, as described below), for the remainder of the otherwise applicable period of benefits, as described above.

Should the percentage of share capital of the companies having Approved Enterprises held by foreign shareholders exceed 25%, future Approved Enterprises of such companies would qualify for reduced tax rates for an additional three years, after the seven years mentioned above. The company tax rate applicable to income earned from Approved Enterprise programs (currently, for programs on which an application for an approved enterprise status was submitted before December 31, 2004) in the benefit period by a company meeting these qualifications is as follows:

% of Foreign Ownership	Tax Rate

Over 25% but less than 49%	25%
49% or more but less than 74%	20%
74% or more but less than 90%	15%
90% or more	10%

Entitlement to these tax benefits for enterprises to which Investment Center granted an Approved Enterprise status prior to December 31, 2004 (see the 2005 Amendment below) is subject to the final ratification of the Investment Center, and is conditioned upon fulfillment of all terms of the approved program. However, there can be no assurance that we will obtain approval for additional Approved Enterprises, or that the provisions of the Investment Law will not change with respect to future approvals, or that the above-mentioned shareholding portion will be reached for each subsequent year. In the event of our failure to comply with these conditions, the tax and other benefits could be canceled, in whole or in part, and we might be required to refund the amount of the canceled benefits, together with the addition of CPI linkage difference and interest. We believe that our Approved Enterprise substantially complies with all such conditions at present, but there can be no assurance that it will continue to do so. The undistributed income derived from each of our approved enterprise programs is tax-exempt for a two year period beginning with the first year in which it generates otherwise taxable income and is subject to a reduced tax rate for the remainder of the benefit period.

A company that pays a dividend out of income derived from the Approved Enterprise(s) during the tax exemption period will be subject to deferred company tax in respect of the amount distributed (including the recipient’s tax thereon) at the rate which would have been applicable had such company not elected the Alternative Package. This rate is generally 10% to 25%, depending on the extent to which non-Israeli shareholders hold such company’s shares.

The dividend recipient is taxed at the reduced rate applicable to dividends from Approved Enterprises (generally 15% as compared to 25% for individuals or an exemption for companies), if the dividend is distributed during the tax benefit period or within 12 years after this period. However, the limitation does not apply if the company qualifies as a foreign investors’ company. This tax must be withheld by such company at source, regardless of whether the dividend is converted into foreign currency.

Subject to certain provisions concerning income subject to Mixed Enterprises, all dividends are considered to be attributable to the entire enterprise and the effective tax rate on the dividend is the result of a weighted combination of the various applicable tax rates. However, such company is not obliged to distribute exempt retained profits under the Alternative Package, and such company may generally decide from which year’s profits to declare dividends.

Each application to the Investment Center is reviewed separately, and a decision as to whether or not to approve such application is based, among other things, on the then prevailing criteria set forth in the Investment Law, on the specific objectives of the applicant company set forth in such application and on certain financial criteria of the applicant company. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any such application by any of our group companies will be approved. In addition, the benefits available to an

Page 52

Approved Enterprise are conditional upon the fulfillment of certain conditions stipulated in the Investment Law and its regulations and the criteria set forth in the certificate of approval, as described above. In the event that these conditions are violated, in whole or in part, a company with an Approved Enterprise would be required to refund the amount of tax benefits, with the addition of the Israeli consumer price index linkage differences and interest.

A company which qualifies as a foreign investment company (FIC) is a company, like us, in which more than 25% of the share capital (in terms of shares, rights to profit, voting rights and appointment of directors) and of the combined share and loan capital is owned, directly or indirectly, by non-residents of Israel and is therefore entitled to further tax benefits relating to its approved enterprises. Such a company will be eligible for an extension of the period of tax benefits for its approved enterprises (up to ten years) and further tax benefits, should the level of foreign ownership in it increase above 49%.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, proceeds received from the sale of our products may be deemed to be royalties under the domestic law of the country of residence of the purchaser/licensee or under an applicable tax treaty and as such subject to withholding tax in such country.

Where withholding tax is paid by our company to the country of residence of the purchaser/licensee, such tax would generally be creditable by our company for Israeli income tax purposes, pursuant to any relevant income tax treaty and under Israeli law against income derived from the same source. However, where we do not have taxable income for Israeli tax purposes because of the application of a tax exemption available to an Approved Enterprise or because of losses for tax purposes, we would have no Israeli tax liability against which to credit the foreign tax withheld and paid by us. Furthermore, under Israeli law, if certain conditions are not met we may not carry forward such unused credit to utilize in future tax years.

From time to time, the Government of Israel has discussed reducing the benefits available to companies under the Investment Law and currently such proposal is pending. The termination or substantial reduction of any of the benefits available under the Investment Law could have a material adverse effect on future investments by our company in Israel.

The law also provides that an approved enterprise is entitled to accelerated depreciation on property and equipment included in an approved investment program, generally ranging from 200% for equipment, to 400% for buildings, of ordinary depreciation rates during the first five tax years of the operation of these assets with a ceiling of 20% per year for depreciation on buildings.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, on March 29, 2005, the Israeli Parliament passed an amendment to the Investment Law, which revamps the Israeli tax incentives for future industrial and hotel investments (the “2005 Amendment”). A tax “holiday” package can now be elected for up to 15 years for a “Privileged Enterprise” as defined in the 2005 Amendment, if certain conditions are met, without needing to obtain approval. The extent of the tax benefits available depends upon the level of foreign investment.

The 2005 Amendment became effective on April 1, 2005. Taxpayers may, under certain conditions, claim Privileged Enterprise status for new and expanded enterprises with respect to 2004 or subsequent years, unless the Investment Center granted such taxpayer Approved Enterprise status prior to December 31, 2004.

Subject to certain conditions, various alternative tax-only benefit packages can now be elected with respect to investments in a “Privileged Enterprise”, without prior approval. Companies in industry or tourism in Israel may elect between:

	·	Tax “holiday” package – for a “Privileged Enterprise”: a tax exemption applies to undistributed profits for 2 to 15 years depending on geographical location of the “Privileged Enterprise” and the level of foreign ownership. Company tax rates of between 10% and 25% apply to distributed exempt profits or profits derived subsequent to the exempt period. The total period of tax benefits is 7 to 15 years, or

	·	Grant / Reduced tax package – for an “Approved Enterprise”: Fixed asset grants of between 20% and 32% for enterprises in a development area and reduced company tax rates between 0% and 25% for a period of 7 to 15 years.

Page 53

Dividend withholding tax also applies at a rate of 4% or 15% depending on the package selected and the residency of the shareholder.

Grants under the Law for the Encouragement of Industrial Research and Development, 1984.

Israeli tax laws have allowed, under certain conditions, a tax deduction for expenditures (including capital expenditures) in scientific research and development projects, if the expenditures are approved or funded by the Government of Israel and the research and development is for the promotion of the enterprise and is carried out by or on behalf of the company seeking such deduction. Expenditures not approved as above or funded are deductible in equal portions over a three-year period.

Under the Research Law, research and development programs that meet specified criteria and are approved by a committee of the Chief Scientist, are eligible for grants of up to 50% of the program’s expenses. Under the provisions of Israeli law in effect until 1996, royalties of 2%-3% of the revenues derived in connection with products developed according to, or as a result of, a research and development program funded by the Chief Scientist had to be paid to the State of Israel. Pursuant to an amendment effected in 1996 effective with respect to Chief Scientist programs funded in or after 1994, royalties at the rate of 3% during the first three years, 4% over the following three years and 5% in or after the seventh year of the revenues derived in connection with products developed according to such programs are payable to the State of Israel. The maximum aggregate royalties will not exceed 100% (or, for funding prior to 1994, 100%-150%) of the dollar-linked value of the total grants received. Pursuant to an amendment effected in 2000, effective with respect to Chief Scientist programs funded in or after 2000, the royalty rates described above were updated to 3% during the first three years and 3.5% in or after the fourth year, of the revenues derived in connection with products developed under such programs. Pursuant to an amendment effected on January 1, 1999, effective with respect to Chief Scientist programs approved in or after 1999, funds received from the Chief Scientist shall bear annual interest at a rate equal to LIBOR for twelve months.

Generally, the Research Law requires that the manufacturing of any product developed through research and development funded by the Government of Israel shall be in Israel. It also provides that know-how from the research and development that is used to produce the product may not be transferred to third parties without the approval of a research committee of the Chief Scientist. Such approval is not required for the export of any products resulting from such research and development.

However, under the Regulations, in the event that any portion of the manufacturing is not performed in Israel, if approved by the Chief Scientist, we would be required to pay an increased royalty at the rates of 120%, 150% or 300% of the grant if the manufacturing portion that is performed outside of Israel is less than 50%, between 50% and 90% and more than 90%, respectively.

In 2002, the Research Law was amended to, among other things, enable companies applying for grants from the Chief Scientist to seek prior approval for conducting manufacturing activities outside of Israel without being subject to increased royalties. However, this amendment will not apply to any of our existing grants. In addition, the amendment provides that one of the factors to be taken into consideration by the Chief Scientist in deciding whether to approve a grant application is the percentage of the manufacturing of the relevant product that will be conducted outside of Israel. Accordingly, should we seek additional grants from the Chief Scientist in connection with which we also seek prior approval for manufacturing products outside of Israel, we may not receive such grant or may receive a grant in an amount that is less than the amount we sought.

Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969

Pursuant to the Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969, a company qualifies as an “Industrial Company” if it is a resident of Israel and at least 90% of its gross income in any tax year (exclusive of income from certain defense loans, capital gains, interest and dividends) is derived from an “industrial enterprise” it owns. An “industrial enterprise” is defined as an enterprise whose major activity, in a given tax year, is industrial manufacturing.

We believe that we currently qualify as an Industrial Company. Accordingly, we are entitled to certain tax benefits, including a deduction of 12.5% per annum on the purchase of patents or certain other intangible property rights (other than goodwill) used for the development or promotion of the industrial enterprise over a period of eight years beginning with the year in which such rights were first used.

Page 54

The tax laws and regulations dealing with the adjustment of taxable income for local inflation provide that an industrial enterprise is eligible for special rates of depreciation deductions. These rates vary in the case of plant and machinery according to the number of shifts in which the equipment is being operated and range from 20% to 40% on a straight-line basis, or 30% to 50% on a declining balance basis (instead of the regular rates which are applied on a straight-line basis).

Moreover, industrial enterprises which are Approved Enterprises can choose between (a) the special rates referred to above and (b) accelerated regular rates of depreciation applied on a straight-line basis with respect to property and equipment, generally ranging from 200% (with respect to equipment) to 400% (with respect to buildings) of the ordinary depreciation rates during the first five years of service of these assets, provided that the depreciation on a building may not exceed 20% per annum. In no event may the total depreciation exceed 100% of the cost of the asset.

In addition, Industrial Companies may (i) elect to file consolidated tax returns with additional related Israeli Industrial Companies and (ii) deduct expenses related to public offerings in equal amounts over a period of three years.

Eligibility for benefits under the Encouragement of Industry Law is not contingent upon the approval of any governmental authority. No assurance can be given that we will continue to qualify as an Industrial Company, or will avail ourselves of any benefits under this law in the future or that Industrial Companies will continue to enjoy such tax benefits in the future.

Employee Stock Options

Effective from January 1, 2003, the Tax Reform Legislation enables a company to grant options through one of three tax tracks:

(a) the earned income track through a trustee pursuant to which the optionee pays income tax rate as earned income (according to the marginal tax rate of the optionee - up to 46% tax in 2009) plus payments to the National Insurance Institute and health tax on the profit gained upon the earlier to occur of the transfer of the options or the underlying shares from the trustee to the optionee or the sale of the options or the underlying shares by the trustee, and the company may recognize expenses pertaining to the options for tax purposes. The options (or upon their exercise, the underlying shares), must be held by a trustee for a period of 12 months commencing from the date the stock options were granted and deposited with a trustee; or

(b) the capital gains tax track through a trustee pursuant to which the optionee pays capital gains tax at a rate of 25% on the profit upon, the earlier to occur of the transfer of the options or the underlying shares from the trustee to the optionee or the sale of the options or the underlying shares by the trustee. However, if the underlying shares are listed in a stock exchange or will be listed within 90 days after the date of grant, then the difference (if any) between the average value of the underlying shares within 30 days prior to date of grant or 30 days subsequent to the date of the listing of the shares, as appropriate, and the exercise price is taxed as earned income rather than capital gain. The optionee is not required to make payments to the National Insurance Institute and health tax in respect of the portion of the income classified as capital gain. The Company may not recognize expenses relating to the options for tax purposes except in respect of the portion of income recognized as earned income. The options (or upon their exercise, the underlying shares), must be held by a trustee for a period of 24 months from the date the stock options were granted and deposited with a trustee ; or

(c) the track without a trustee pursuant to which the optionee pays income tax rate as earned income (according to the marginal tax rate of the optionee up to 46% tax in 2009) plus payments to the National Insurance Institute and health tax on the profit upon the sale of the underlying shares, and the company may not recognize expenses pertaining to the options for tax purposes.

In accordance with the provisions of the Tax Reform Legislation, if a company has selected the capital gains track, the company must continue granting options under the selected capital gains track until the end of the year following the year in which the first grant of options under that trustee track will be made. Notwithstanding the above, the company may at any time also grant options under the provisions of the earned income track without a trustee.

Page 55

The above rules apply only to employees, including office holders but excluding controlling shareholders.

Taxation under Inflationary Conditions

The Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985 (“Inflationary Adjustments Law”) is intended to neutralize the erosion of capital investments in business and to prevent tax benefits resulting from deduction of inflationary interest expenses. This law applies a supplementary set of inflationary adjustments to the normal taxable profits computed under regular historical cost principles.

Under the Inflationary Adjustments Law, results for tax purposes are measured in real terms, in accordance with the changes in the consumer price index. In addition, subject to certain limitations, depreciation of fixed assets and losses carried forward are adjusted for inflation on the basis of changes in the consumer price index.

The salient features of the Inflationary Adjustments Law can be described generally as follows:

A special tax adjustment for the preservation of equity, based on changes in the CPI, whereby certain corporate assets are classified broadly into fixed (inflation-resistant) assets and non-fixed assets. Where shareholders’ equity, (as defined in the Inflationary Adjustment Law), exceeds the depreciated cost of fixed assets (as defined in the Inflationary Adjustment Law), a tax deduction which takes into account the effect of the annual rate of inflation on such excess is allowed (up to a ceiling of 70% of taxable income for companies in any single year, with the unused portion carried forward on a CPI-linked basis, without limit). If the depreciated cost of such fixed assets exceeds shareholders’ equity, then such excess, multiplied by the annual inflation rate, is added to taxable income.

Subject to certain limitations, depreciation deductions on fixed assets and losses carried forward are adjusted for inflation based on the increase in the consumer price index (from the beginning of the 1982 fiscal year, and as of the 1985 fiscal year, with respect to equipment); and gains on the sale of certain traded securities are taxable. However, dealers in securities are subject to the regular tax rules applicable to business income in Israel.

Results for tax purposes are measured in real terms, in accordance with the changes in the CPI. We are taxed under this law. The discrepancy between the change in (i) the CPI and (ii) the exchange rate of the Israeli currency to the dollar, each year and cumulatively, may result in a significant difference between taxable income and other items as denominated in dollars as reflected in our financial statements (which are reported in dollars). In addition, subject to certain limitations, depreciation of fixed assets and losses carried forward are adjusted for inflation on the basis of changes in the Israeli CPI.

The Israeli Parliament has approved the cancellation (subject to transitional provisions) of the Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985, commencing from tax year 2008 .

Taxation of our Shareholders

Capital Gain

Capital gain tax is imposed on the disposal of capital assets by an Israeli resident, and on the disposal of such assets by a non- Israel resident if those assets are either (i) located in Israel; (ii) are shares or a right to a share in an Israeli resident corporation (iii) represent, directly or indirectly, rights to assets located in Israel. The Israeli Tax Ordinance distinguishes between “Real Gain” and the “Inflationary Surplus”. Real Gain is the excess of the total capital gain over Inflationary Surplus computed generally on the basis of the increase in the Israeli CPI between the date of purchase and the date of disposal.

The capital gain accrued by individuals on the sale of an asset purchased on or after January 1, 2003 will be taxed at the rate of 20%. However, if the individual shareholder is a “Controlling Shareholder” ( i.e ., a person who holds, directly or indirectly, alone or together with other, 10% or more of one of the Israeli resident company’s means of control at the time of distribution or at any time during the preceding 12 months period) such gain will be taxed at the rate of 25%. In addition, capital gain derived by an individual claiming deduction of financing expenses in respect of such gain will be taxed at the rate of 25%. The real capital gain derived by a corporation will be generally subject to tax at the rate of 25%. However, the real capital gain

Page 56

derived from sale of securities, as defined in Section 6 of the Inflationary Adjustment Law, by a corporation, which was subject upon December 31, 2005 to the provisions of Section 6 of the Inflationary Adjustment Law, will be taxed at the corporate tax rate (26% in 2009). The capital gain accrued at the sale of an asset purchased prior to January 1, 2003 will be subject to tax at a blended rate. The marginal tax rate for individuals (up to 46% in 2009) and the regular corporate tax rate for corporations (26% in 2009) will be applied to the gain amount which bears the same ratio to the total gain realized as the ratio which the holding period commencing at the acquisition date and terminating on January 1, 2003 bears to the total holding period. The remainder of the gain realized will be subject to capital gains tax at the rates applicable to an asset purchased after January 1, 2003 (see aforementioned).

Individual and corporate shareholder dealing in securities in Israel are taxed at the tax rates applicable to business income (in 2009 – 26% tax rate for a corporation and a marginal tax rate of up to 46% for individual). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the shareholder is a non-Israeli resident, then such taxation is subject to the provision of any applicable double tax treaty. Moreover, capital gain derived from the sale of the shares by a non-Israeli shareholder may be exempt under the Israeli income tax ordinance from Israeli taxation provided the following cumulative conditions are met: (i) the shares were purchased upon or after the registration of the shares at the stock exchange, (ii) the seller doesn’t have a permanent establishment in Israel to which the derived capital gain is attributed, and (iii) if the seller is a corporation, less than 25% of its means of control are held by Israeli resident shareholders. In addition, the sale of the shares may be exempt from Israeli capital gain tax under an applicable tax treaty. Thus, the U.S.-Israel Double Tax Treaty exempts U.S. resident from Israeli capital gain tax in connection with such sale, provided (i) the U.S. resident owned, directly or indirectly, less than 10% of an Israeli resident company’s voting power at any time within the 12 – month period preceding such sale; (ii) the seller, being an individual, is present in Israel for a period or periods of less than 183 days at the taxable year; and (iii) the capital gain from the sale was not derived through a permanent establishment of the U.S. resident in Israel.

Either the seller, the Israeli stockbroker or financial institution through which the sold securities are held, are obliged, subject to the above mentioned exemptions, to withhold tax upon the sale of securities from the real capital gain at the rate of 25% in respect of a corporation and 20% in respect of an individual.

Generally, within 30 days of a transaction, a detailed return, including a computation of the tax due, should be submitted to the Israeli Tax Authority, and an advanced payment amounting to the tax liability arising from the capital gain is payable. At the sale of traded securities, the aforementioned detailed return may not be submitted and the advanced payment should not be paid if all tax due was withheld at source according to applicable provisions of the Israeli income tax ordinance and regulations promulgated thereunder. Capital gain is also reportable on the annual income tax return.

Dividends

A distribution of dividend from income attributed to an “Approved Enterprise” will be subject to tax in Israel at the rate of 15%, subject to a reduced rate under any applicable double tax treaty. A distribution of dividend from income, which is not attributed to an “Approved Enterprise” to an Israeli resident individual, will generally be subject to income tax at a rate of 20%. However, a 25% tax rate will apply if the dividend recipient is a “Controlling Shareholder” (i.e., a person who holds, directly or indirectly, alone or together with other, 10% or more of one of the Israeli resident company’s means of control at the time of distribution or at any time during the preceding 12 months period). If the recipient of the dividend is an Israeli resident corporation, such dividend will be exempt from income tax provided the income from which such dividend is distributed was derived or accrued within Israel.

Under the Israeli income tax ordinance, a non-Israeli resident (either individual or corporation) is generally subject to an Israeli income tax on the receipt of dividends at the rate of 20% (25% if the dividends recipient is a Controlling Shareholder); those rates are subject to a reduced tax rate under an applicable double tax treaty. Thus, under the Double Tax Treaty concluded between the State of Israel and the U.S. the following rates will apply in respect of dividends distributed by an Israeli resident company to a U.S. resident: (i) if the U.S. resident is a corporation which holds during that portion of the taxable year which precedes the date of payment of the dividend and during the whole of its prior taxable year (if any), at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the voting stock of the Israeli resident paying corporation and not more than 25% of the gross income of the Israeli resident paying corporation for such prior taxable year (if any) consists of certain type of interest or dividends – the tax rate is 12.5%, (ii) if both the conditions mentioned in section (i) above are met and the dividend is paid from an Israeli resident company’s income which was entitled to a reduced tax rate applicable to an “approved enterprise” under the Israeli Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments of

Page 57

1959– the tax rate is 15%, and (iii) in all other cases, the tax rate is 25%. The aforementioned rates under the Israel U.S. Double Tax Treaty will not apply if the dividend income was derived through a permanent establishment of the U.S. resident in Israel.

An Israeli resident company whose shares are listed on a stock exchange is obligated to withhold tax, upon the distribution of a dividend attributed to an Approved Enterprise’s income, from the amount distributed, at the following rates: (i) Israeli resident corporation – 15%, (ii) Israeli resident individual – 15%, and (iii) non-Israeli resident – 15%, subject to a reduced tax rate under an applicable double tax treaty. If the dividend is distributed from an income not attributed to the Approved Enterprise, the following withholding tax rates will apply: (i) Israeli resident corporation – 0%, (ii) Israeli resident individual – 20% (iii) non-Israeli resident – 20%, subject to a reduced tax rate under an applicable double tax treaty.

Estate and Gift Tax

Israel law presently does not impose estate or gift tax.

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY IS INCLUDED HEREIN FOR GENERAL INFORMATION AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE, AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED TO BE, LEGAL OR TAX ADVICE. EACH U.S. HOLDER SHOULD CONSULT WITH HIS OR HER OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND SALE OF ORDINARY SHARES, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF APPLICABLE STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN OR OTHER TAX LAWS AND POSSIBLE CHANGES IN THE TAX LAWS.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation

Subject to the limitations described in the next paragraph, the following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to a “U.S. Holder” arising from the purchase, ownership and sale of the Ordinary Shares. For this purpose, a “U.S. Holder” is a holder of Ordinary Shares that is: (1) an individual citizen or resident of the United States, including an alien individual who is a lawful permanent resident of the United States or meets the substantial presence residency test under U.S. federal income tax laws; (2) a corporation (or entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes) or a partnership (other than a partnership that is not treated as a U.S. person under any applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations) created or organized under the laws of the United States or the District of Columbia or any political subdivision thereof; (3) an estate, the income of which is includable in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of source; (4) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; (5) a trust that has a valid election in effect to be treated as a U.S. person to the extent provided in U.S. Treasury regulations, or (6) any person otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis in respect of the Ordinary Shares, if such status as a U.S. Holder is not overridden pursuant to the provisions of an applicable tax treaty.

This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase our Ordinary Shares. This summary generally considers only U.S. Holders that will own our Ordinary Shares as capital assets. Except to the limited extent discussed below, this summary does not consider the U.S. federal tax consequences to a person that is not a U.S. Holder, not does it describe the rules applicable to determine a taxpayer’s status as a U.S. Holder. This summary is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, and the U.S./Israel Income Tax Treaty, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis, and all of which are open to differing interpretations. The Company will not seek a ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, with regard to the U.S. federal income tax treatment of an investment in our Ordinary Shares by U.S. Holders and, therefore, can provide no assurances that the IRS will agree with the conclusions set forth below.

This discussion does not address all of the aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular shareholder based on such shareholder’s particular circumstances and in particular does not discuss any estate, gift, generation-skipping, transfer, state, local or foreign tax considerations. In addition, this

Page 58

discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder who is: (1) a bank, life insurance company, regulated investment company, or other financial institution or “financial services entity”; (2) a broker or dealer in securities or foreign currency; (3) a person who acquired our Ordinary Shares in connection with employment or other performance of services; (4) a U.S. Holder that is subject to the U.S. alternative minimum tax; (5) a U.S. Holder that holds our Ordinary Shares as a hedge or as part of a hedging, straddle, conversion or constructive sale transaction or other risk-reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes; (6) a tax-exempt entity; (7) real estate investment trusts; (8) a U.S. Holder that expatriates out of the United States or a former long-term resident of the United States; or (9) a person having a functional currency other then the U.S. dollar. This discussion does not address the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a U.S. Holder that owns, directly or constructively, at any time, Ordinary Shares representing 10% or more of our voting power. Additionally, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of persons who hold Ordinary Shares through a partnership or other pass-through entity are not considered.

Each prospective investor is advised to consult such person’s own tax advisor with respect to the specific U.S. federal and state income tax consequences to such person of purchasing, holding or disposing of the Ordinary Shares, including the effects of applicable state, local, foreign or other tax laws and possible changes in the tax laws.

Distributions on Ordinary Shares

We have no immediate plans to pay any cash dividends on our capital stock. In the event that we do pay dividends, and subject to the discussion under the heading “Passive Foreign Investment Companies” below, a U.S. Holder will be required to include in gross income as ordinary income the amount of any distribution paid on Ordinary Shares (including the amount of any Israeli tax withheld on the date of the distribution), to the extent that such distribution does not exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The amount of a distribution which exceeds our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital, reducing the U.S. Holder’s tax basis for the Ordinary Shares to the extent thereof, and then capital gain. Corporate holders generally will not be allowed a deduction for dividends received. In general, preferential tax rates not exceeding 15% for “qualified dividend income” and long-term capital gains are applicable for U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts (these preferential rates are scheduled to expire for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2010, after which time dividends are scheduled to be taxed at ordinary income rates and long-term capital gains are scheduled to be taxed at rates not exceeding 20%). For this purpose, “qualified dividend income” means, inter alia , dividends received from a “qualified foreign corporation.” A “qualified foreign corporation” is a corporation that is entitled to the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States which includes an exchange of information program. The IRS has stated that the Israel/U.S. Tax Treaty satisfies this requirement and we believe we are eligible for the benefits of that treaty.

In addition, our dividends will be qualified dividend income if our Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on NASDAQ or another established securities market in the United States. Dividends will not qualify for the preferential rate if we are treated, in the year the dividend is paid or in the prior year, as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC. A U.S. Holder will not be entitled to the preferential rate: (i) if the U.S. Holder has not held our Ordinary Shares or ADRs for at least 61 days of the 121 day period beginning on the date which is 60 days before the ex-dividend date, or (ii) to the extent the U.S. Holder is under an obligation to make related payments on substantially similar property. Any days during which the U.S. Holder has diminished its risk of loss on our Ordinary Shares are not counted towards meeting the 61-day holding period. Finally, U.S. Holders who elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Code section 163(d)(4) will not be eligible for the preferential rate of taxation.

The amount of a distribution with respect to our Ordinary Shares will be measured by the amount of the fair market value of any property distributed, and for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of any Israeli taxes withheld therefrom. (See discussion above under “Israel Corporate Tax Considerations - Taxation of Our Shareholders – Dividends”) Cash distributions paid by us in NIS will be included in the income of U.S. Holders at a U.S. dollar amount based upon the spot rate of exchange in effect on the date the dividend is includible in the income of the U.S. Holder, and U.S. Holders will have a tax basis in such NIS for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to such U.S. dollar value. If the U.S. Holder subsequently converts the NIS, any subsequent gain or loss in respect of such NIS arising from exchange rate fluctuations will be U.S. source ordinary exchange gain or loss.

Page 59

Distributions paid by us will generally be foreign source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Subject to the limitations set forth in the Code, U.S. Holders may elect to claim a foreign tax credit against their U.S. income tax liability for Israeli income tax withheld from distributions received in respect of the Ordinary Shares. In general, these rules limit the amount allowable as a foreign tax credit in any year to the amount of regular U.S. tax for the year attributable to foreign source taxable income. This limitation on the use of foreign tax credits generally will not apply to an electing individual U.S. Holder whose creditable foreign taxes during the year do not exceed $300, or $600 for joint filers, if such individual’s gross income for the taxable year from non-U.S. sources consists solely of certain passive income. A U.S. Holder will be denied a foreign tax credit with respect to Israeli income tax withheld from dividends received with respect to the Ordinary Shares if such U.S. Holder has not held the Ordinary Shares for at least 16 days out of the 31-day period beginning on the date that is 15 days before the ex-dividend date or to the extent that such U.S. Holder is under an obligation to make certain related payments with respect to substantially similar or related property. Any day during which a U.S. Holder has substantially diminished his or her risk of loss with respect to the Ordinary Shares will not count toward meeting the 16-day holding period. A U.S. Holder will also be denied a foreign tax credit if the U.S. Holder holds the Ordinary Shares in an arrangement in which the U.S. Holder’s reasonably expected economic profit is insubstantial compared to the foreign taxes expected to be paid or accrued. The rules relating to the determination of the U.S. foreign tax credit are complex, and U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors to determine whether, and to what extent, they are entitled to such credit. U.S. Holders that do not elect to claim a foreign tax credit may instead claim a deduction for Israeli income taxes withheld, provided such U.S. Holders itemize their deductions.

Disposition of Shares

Except as provided under the PFIC rules described below, upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our Ordinary Shares, a U.S. Holder will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between such U.S. Holder’s tax basis for the Ordinary Shares and the amount realized on the disposition (or its U.S. dollar equivalent determined by reference to the spot rate of exchange on the date of disposition, if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency). The gain or loss realized on the sale or exchange or other disposition of Ordinary Shares will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has a holding period of more than one year at the time of the disposition.

In general, gain realized by a U.S. Holder on a sale, exchange or other disposition of Ordinary Shares will generally be treated as U.S. source income for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. A loss realized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Ordinary Shares is generally allocated to U.S. source income. However, U.S. Treasury Regulations require such loss to be allocated to foreign source income to the extent certain dividends were received by the taxpayer within the 24-month period preceding the date on which the taxpayer recognized the loss. The deductibility of a loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Ordinary Shares is subject to limitations.

Passive Foreign Investment Companies

Special U.S. federal income tax laws apply to a U.S. Holder who owns shares of a corporation that was (at any time during the U.S. Holder’s holding period) PFIC. We would be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any tax year if, in such tax year, either:

	·	75% or more of our gross income (including our pro rata share of gross income for any company, U.S. or foreign, in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value), in a taxable year is passive (the “Income Test”); or

	·	At least 50% of our assets, averaged over the year and generally determined based upon value (including our pro rata share of the assets of any company in which we are considered to own 25% or more of the shares by value), in a taxable year are held for the production of, or produce, passive income (the “Asset Test”).

For this purpose, passive income generally consists of dividends, interest, rents, royalties, annuities and income from certain commodities transactions and from notional principal contracts. Cash is treated as generating passive income.

If we are or become a PFIC, each U.S. Holder who has not elected to treat us as a qualified electing fund by making a “QEF election”, or who has not elected to mark the shares to market (as discussed below), would, upon receipt of certain distributions by us and upon disposition of our Ordinary Shares at a gain, be liable to pay U.S. federal income tax at the then prevailing highest tax rates on ordinary income plus interest on such tax, as if the distribution or gain had been recognized ratably over the taxpayer’s holding period for the Ordinary Shares. In addition, when shares of a PFIC are acquired by reason of death from a decedent that was a U.S. Holder, the tax basis of such shares would not receive a step-up to fair market value as of the date of the decedent’s death, but instead would be equal to the decedent’s basis if lower, unless all gain were recognized by the decedent. Indirect investments in a PFIC may also be subject to special U.S. federal income tax rules.

The PFIC rules would not apply to a U.S. Holder who makes a QEF election for all taxable years that such U.S. Holder has held the Ordinary Shares while we are a PFIC, provided that we comply with certain reporting requirements. Instead, each U.S. Holder who has made such a QEF election is required for each taxable year that we are a PFIC to include in income such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our ordinary earnings as ordinary income and such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of our net capital gains as long-term capital gain, regardless of whether we make any distributions of such earnings or gain. In general, a QEF election is effective only if we make available certain required information. The QEF election is made on a shareholder-by-shareholder basis and generally may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding eligibility, manner and advisability of making a QEF election if we are treated as a PFIC.

A U.S. Holder of PFIC shares which are traded on certain public markets, including the NASDAQ, can elect to mark the shares to market annually, recognizing as ordinary income or loss each year an amount equal to the difference as of the close of the taxable year between the fair market value of the PFIC shares and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the PFIC shares. Losses are allowed only to the extent of net mark-to-market gain previously included income by the U.S. Holder under the election for prior taxable years.

In light of the complexity of PFIC rules, we cannot assure you that we have not been or are not a PFIC or will avoid becoming a PFIC in the future. U.S. Holders who hold Ordinary Shares during a period when we are a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC, subject to certain exceptions for U.S. Holders who made a QEF or mark-to-market election. U.S. Holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors about the PFIC rules, including the eligibility, manner, and consequences to them of making a QEF or mark-to-market election with respect to our Ordinary Shares in the event we that qualify as a PFIC.

Information Reporting and Withholding

A U.S. Holder may be subject to backup withholding (currently at a rate of 28%, but scheduled to increase to 31% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2010) with respect to cash dividends and proceed from a disposition of Ordinary Shares. In general, back-up withholding will apply only if a U.S. Holder fails to comply with certain identification procedures. Backup withholding will not apply with respect to payments made to certain exempt recipients, such as corporations and tax-exempt organizations. Backup withholding is not an additional tax and may be claimed as a credit against the U.S. federal income tax liability of a U.S. Holder, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Non-U.S. Holders of Ordinary Shares

Except as provided below, an individual, corporation, estate or trust that is not a U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on the payment of dividends on, and the proceeds from the disposition of, our Ordinary Shares.

A non-U.S. Holder may be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on a dividend paid on our Ordinary Shares or the proceeds from the disposition of our Ordinary Shares if: (i) such item is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States or, in the case of a non-U.S. Holder that is a resident of a country which has an income tax treaty with the United States, such item is attributable to a permanent establishment or, in the case of gain realized by an individual non-U.S. Holder, a fixed place of business in the U.S.; (ii) in the case of a disposition of our Ordinary Shares, the individual non-U.S. Holder is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale and certain other conditions are met; (iii) the non-U.S. Holder is subject to U.S. federal income tax pursuant to the provisions of the U.S. tax law applicable to U.S. expatriates.

Page 61

In general, non-U.S. Holders will not be subject to backup withholding with respect to the payment of dividends on our Ordinary Shares if payment is made through a paying agent, or office of a foreign broker outside the United States. However, if payment is made in the United States or by a U.S. related person, non-U.S. Holders may be subject to backup withholding, unless the non-U.S. Holder provides on an applicable Form W-8 (or a substantially similar form) a taxpayer identification number, certifies to its foreign status, or otherwise establishes an exemption. A U.S. related person for these purposes is a person with one or more current relationships with the United States.

The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

10.F. Dividends and paying agents

10.H. Documents on display

We are subject to certain of the information reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act. As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from the rules and regulations under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and “short-swing” profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act, with respect to their purchase and sale of our shares. In addition, we are not required to file reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. However, we are required to file with the SEC, within six months after the end of each fiscal year, an annual report on Form 20-F containing financial statements audited by an independent accounting firm. We publish unaudited interim financial information after the end of each quarter. We furnish this quarterly financial information to the SEC under cover of a Form 6-K.

You may read and copy any document we file with the SEC at its public reference facilities at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. You may also obtain copies of the documents at prescribed rates by writing to the Public Reference Section of the SEC at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. The SEC also maintains a web site that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding registrants that file electronically with the SEC. The address of this web site is http://www.sec.gov. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the public reference facilities.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In the ordinary course of our operations, we are exposed to certain market risks, primarily changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk . We develop products in Israel and sell them primarily in North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific region. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. In 2009, 47% of our revenues and 34% of our expenses were denominated in U.S. dollars. Since our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in the rates of exchange between the U.S. dollar and non-U.S. dollar currencies may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We believe that our exposure to currency exchange rate risk is somewhat reduced due to the number of different countries and currencies in which we conduct business, including the main currencies of NIS, British

Page 62

pounds and Euros. In 2009, the net impact on our financial results of currency changes against the U.S. dollar was immaterial (as revenues were negatively impacted but were offset by lower expenses).

In addition, we have balance sheet exposure arising from assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, mainly in Euros, British pounds, NIS and Australian dollars. Any change of the conversion rates between the U.S. dollar and these currencies may create financial gain or loss. We enter from time to time into forward contracts related to foreign currencies in order to protect against monetary balances denominated in foreign currencies, and certain forecasted transactions. We do not participate in any speculative investments. At December 31, 2009, we had short forward exchange contracts to sell up to Euro 5.0 million for a total amount of $7.2 million, British pounds 4.0 million for a total amount of $6.5 million, Australian Dollar 0.65 million for a total amount of $0.6 million, Canadian Dollar 0.1 million for a total amount of $0.1 million and NIS 12.5 million for a total amount of $3.2 million.

Interest Rate Risk. As of December 31, 2009, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $34.5 million, which consist mainly of cash and short-term bank deposits with major banks. Of this, a total of $7.4 million is denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. Nearly all of these cash and investments are not insured by the FDIC or similar governmental deposit insurance outside the United States. We believe a substantial decrease in market interest rates or market value would have an immaterial impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The following table provides information about our investment portfolio, cash, and investments as of December 31, 2009 and presents principal cash flows and related weighted averages interest rates by expected maturity dates.

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2009 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, those officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be included in periodic filings under the Exchange Act and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based principally on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009 at providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a member firm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our 2009 consolidated financial statements included in this annual report, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting. The report appears elsewhere herein.

(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 16A. Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that Shlomo Nass, a member of our audit committee, is an audit committee financial expert, as defined under the Exchange Act Rules, and is independent in accordance with applicable Exchange Act rules and Nasdaq Rules.

ITEM 16B. Code of Ethics

We have adopted a written code of ethics that applies to our officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal controller and persons performing similar functions as

Page 64

well as our directors. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on our website at www.clicksoftware.com.

ITEM 16C. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co., a member of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, has served as our independent registered public accounting firm for each of the three years ended December 31, 2009.

Audit Fees .

Audit fees in 2009 amounted to approximately $159,000 and primarily related to professional services rendered in connection with the audits of our financial statements and internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 and the review of our interim financial statements during 2009. This amount also includes fees paid to Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu firms other than Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. Audit fees in 2008 amounted to approximately $93,000 and primarily related to professional services rendered in connection with the audit of our interim financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and the review of our financial statements during 2008.

Audit-Related Fees .

None.

Tax Fees .

Tax fees billed to us by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. and other Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu firms in 2009 amounted to approximately $43,000 and primarily related to tax services. Tax fees billed to us by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. in 2008 amounted to approximately $6,000 and primarily related to tax services.

All Other Fees .

Other fees billed to us by Brightman Almagor Zohar & Co. amounted to $15,000.

Pre-Approval of Auditors’ Compensation .

Our audit committee is responsible for pre-approving audit and non-audit services provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm. 100% of the non-audit services provided to us by the independent auditors in 2009 and 2008 were either pre-approved by the full audit committee, or by Dan Falk, who served as Chairman of the Audit Committee during part of 2009, who was delegated by the audit committee to approve the non-audit services provided by our independent auditors for amounts up to $20,000 per instance (subject to later ratification by the audit committee).

ITEM 16G. Corporate Governance

Under Rule 5615(a)(3) to the Nasdaq Rules, foreign private issuers, such as us, are permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain provisions of the Nasdaq Rules. A foreign private issuer that elects to follow a home country practice instead of any of such provisions must submit to Nasdaq, in advance, a written statement from an independent counsel in such issuer's home country certifying that the issuer's practices are not prohibited by the home country's laws. We have provided Nasdaq with a notice of non-compliance with respect to certain Nasdaq Rules. Below is a summary of the significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq Rules applicable to domestic U.S. listed companies.

As described in item 10.B. “Memorandum and articles of association,” Rule 5620(c) to Nasdaq Rules requires that an issuer listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market has a quorum requirement that in no case be less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of the such issuer’s common voting stock. However, our articles of association, consistent with the Companies Law, provide for a lower general quorum requirement of 33% of our outstanding shares and even lower in the event that the required quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding an adjourned meeting, or, in the case the meeting that was adjourned was convened by the shareholders, if the required quorum is not present at the time appointed for holding such adjourned meeting. Our quorum requirements for an adjourned meeting do not comply with the Nasdaq requirements and we instead follow our home country practice.

We have chosen to follow our home country practice in lieu of the requirements of Rule 5250(d)(1), relating to an issuer's furnishing of its annual report to shareholders and we post our annual report on Form 20-F on our web site (www.clicksoftware.com) as soon as practicable following the filing of the annual report on Form 20-F with the SEC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd.

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Annual Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 of the Company and our report dated April 8, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of

ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ClickSoftware Technologies Ltd. ("the Company") and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated April 8,2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008 AND

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009, 2008 AND 2007)

NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Principles of consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Financial statements in U.S. dollars

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar ("dollar"). The dollar is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries. Transactions and balances originally denominated in dollars are presented at their original amounts. Non-dollar transactions and balances are remeasured into dollars in accordance with the principles set forth in ASC 830-10 (originally issued as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52). All exchange gains and losses from translation of monetary balance sheet items resulting from transactions in non-dollar currencies are recorded in the statement of operations as they arise.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash, with original maturities of three months or less.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to credit risk, consist principally of cash instruments and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and investments with major financial institutions in the United States, Europe and Israel. Nearly all of our cash and investments are not insured by the FDIC or other similar governmental insurance limits. The accounts receivable are derived from sales to a large number of customers, mainly large industrial corporations and their suppliers located mainly in Europe and the United States. The Company generally does not require collateral. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which management believes adequately covers all anticipated losses in respect of trade receivables.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 3 to 16 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method, over the shorter of the lease term or the useful lives of the improvements.

The Company complies with provisions of ASC 360-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 144), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC 360-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 144) requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

Intangible assets representing primarily core technology and in process research and development (“IPR&D”), customer lists and relationships, employment contracts, workforce and non-competition arrangements (arising from business combinations) are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization as outlined in Note 9. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis ranging from 3 to 6 years.

Page 74

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid by the Company over the fair value of identifiable intangible assets as a result of purchasing a business. Goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it may be impaired. The impairment test is carried out in two steps. In the first step, the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill, is compared to its fair value. When the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. The second step is carried out when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, in which case the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined in the same manner as the value of goodwill is determined in a business combination, is compared with its carrying amount to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any.

Software research and development costs

Software research and development costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are included in research and development expenses. The Company defines establishment of technological feasibility as the completion of a working model. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility through the period of general market availability of the products are capitalized, if material, after consideration of various factors, including net realizable value. To date, software development costs that are eligible for capitalization have not been material and have been expensed.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the ASC 985-605-15 (originally issued as American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by Statement of Position 98-9).

In accordance with ASC 985-605-15, revenues from software license fees are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the software product covered by written agreement or a purchase order signed by the customer has been delivered, the license fees are fixed and determinable, collection of the license fees is considered probable and vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of undelivered elements exists.

License fees from software arrangements that involve multiple elements, such as consulting, training and post-contract customer support, are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair values of the elements. The Company determines the fair value of each element in multiple-element arrangements based on vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE. The Company determines the VSOE for each element according to the price charged when the element is sold separately. For post-contract customer support, The Company determines the VSOE based on the renewal price charged. For other services, such as consulting and training, The Company determines the VSOE based on the fixed hourly/daily rate charged in stand-alone service transactions. Under the residual method, consideration is allocated to undelivered elements based upon the VSOE of those elements, with the residual of the arrangement fee allocated to and recognized as software license revenue. The Company also enters into software arrangements with resellers whereby revenues are recognized upon sale through to the end user by the reseller.

Revenue from software licenses that require significant customization, integration and implementation are recognized based on ASC 605-35-05 (originally issued as SOP 81) “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts,” using contract accounting on the percentage-of-completion method, based on the relationship of actual working hours incurred to total working hours estimated to be incurred over the duration of the contract. In recognizing revenues based on the percentage-of-completion method, the Company estimates time to completion with revisions to estimates reflected in the period in which changes become known. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are first determined, in the amount of the estimated loss on the entire contract.

Page 75

contract customer support arrangements provide for technical support and the right to unspecified updates on an if-and-when-available basis. Revenues from these arrangements are recognized ratably over the term of the arrangement, usually one year.

The Company categorizes revenue as either software license revenue or services revenue. The Company allocates revenue to each of these categories based on the VSOE for elements in each revenue arrangement and based on the application of the residual method for arrangements in which the Company has established the VSOE for all undelivered elements. Where the Company is unable to establish the VSOE for all undelivered elements, the Company takes a systematic approach, whereby the Company first allocates revenue to any undelivered elements for which the VSOE has been established, and then allocates revenue to any undelivered elements for which the VSOE has not been established based on management’s best estimate of the fair value of those undelivered elements. The Company then applies a residual method to determine the license fee. Management’s best estimate of fair value of undelivered elements for which the VSOE has not been established is based upon the VSOE of similar offerings and other objective criteria.

Basic and diluted net income per share

Basic and diluted net income per share are presented in conformity with ASC 260-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 128) "Earnings per Share" for all years presented. Basic and diluted net income per share have been computed using the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year (see Note 13).

Outstanding share options and shares issued and reserved for outstanding share options have been excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share to the extent such securities are anti-dilutive. The total number of shares, excluded from the calculations of diluted net income per share, were 1,500,824, 3,502,509 and 2,236,340 for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

The financial instruments of the Company consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, current accounts receivable, and accounts payable. In view of their nature, the fair value of the financial instruments included in working capital of the Company is usually identical or close to their carrying amounts.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-Based Compensation Plans— ASC 718-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R)) requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment awards made to employees and directors be recognized in the financial statements. The principal awards issued under Company stock-based compensation plans, which are described in Note 13, “Stock-Based Compensation Plans” include stock options. The cost for such awards is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods (generally the vesting period of the equity award) in the Company Consolidated Statement of Operations. The following table summarizes the effects of stock-based compensation resulting from the application of ASC 718-10 included in Statement of Operations as follows:

	YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
			(in thousands)
	2009		2008		2007

Cost of revenues	$	132	$	115	$	98
Research and development expenses		120		108		86
Selling and marketing expenses		266		225		156
General and administrative expenses		474		331		373
Total	$	992	$	779	$	713

Page 76

Under ASC 718-10, the fair market value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the “Black-Scholes option pricing” method with the following weighted-average assumptions: (1) expected life of 5.1 years (2008 – 4.8, 2007 – 4.9); (2) dividend yield of 0% (3) expected volatility of 70% (2008 – 73%, 2007 – 76% ) and (4) risk-free interest rate of 3.4% (2008 –3.2%, 2007 – 4.8%).

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-10 (originally issued as SFAS 109) "Accounting for Income Taxes," under the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized.

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of ASC 740-10 on January 1, 2007.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 165. Statement No. 165 provides guidance on management’s assessment of subsequent events. Historically, management had relied on U.S. auditing literature for guidance on assessing and disclosing subsequent events. Statement No. 165 represents the inclusion of guidance on subsequent events in the accounting literature and is direct specifically to management, since management is responsible for preparing an entity’s financial statements. Statement No. 165 is not expected to significantly change practice because its guidance is similar to that in AU section 560, with some important modifications. The new standard clarifies that management must evaluate, as of each reporting period, events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date “through the date that the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued”. Management must perform its assessment for both interim and annual financial reporting periods. The company does not expect that the adoption of Statement No. 165 will have a significant impact on its financial statements.

E. IBM Share and Warrants Grants

At the end of the second quarter of 2004, the Company formalized a strategic alliance with IBM pursuant to which the Company teamed with IBM to resell its workforce optimization solutions. In connection with this strategic alliance, the Company established a Project Office with IBM to manage the day-to-day affairs in connection with the relationship. During 2008 the Company continued its cooperation with IBM. IBM has received certain warrants that are exercisable into ordinary shares of the Company in connection with this arrangement. During 2008 IBM exercised a total 25,502 of warrants on a “cashless exercise” basis.

The Company accounted for these warrants and options under the fair value method of ASC 505-50-30 (originally issued as FAS No. 123-R). The fair value was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.8%; volatility rate of 76%; dividend yields of 0% and an expected life of 4.9 years.

Compensation expenses of $63 for warrants issued to IBM were deducted from Revenues and were recognized for the year ended December 31, 2007.

NOTE 15 – TAX BENEFIT (TAXES ON INCOME)

A. Company

The Company is subject to the Israeli Income Tax Law (Inflationary Adjustments), 1985, measuring income on the basis of changes in the Israeli Consumer Price Index.

Part of the Company’s investment in equipment has received approvals ( "Approved Enterprise" status) in accordance with the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 (the “Investment Law”) . The Company has chosen to receive its benefits through the "Alternative Benefits" track, and, as such, is eligible for various benefits. These benefits include accelerated depreciation of fixed assets used in the investment program, as well as a full tax exemption on undistributed income in relation to income derived from the first plan for a period of 2 years and for the second and third plans for a period of 4 years. Thereafter a reduced tax rate of 25% will be applicable for an additional period of up to 5 years for the first plan and 3 years for the second and third plans, commencing with the date on which taxable income is first earned but not later than certain dates. In the case of foreign investment of more than 25%, the tax benefits are extended to 10 years, and in the case of foreign investment ranging from 49% to 100% the tax rate is reduced on a sliding scale to 10%. The benefits are subject to the fulfillment of the conditions of the letter of approval. The first and second plans benefit periods have already expired. The benefit period of the third plan has not yet commenced.

On April 1, 2005, an amendment to the Investment Law came into effect ("the Amendment") that significantly changed the provisions of the Investment Law. The Amendment limits the scope of enterprises which may be approved by the Investment Center by setting criteria for the approval of a facility as a Privileged Enterprise, such as provisions generally requiring that at least 25% of the Privileged Enterprise's Income will be derived

Page 85

from export. Additionally, the Amendment enacted major changes in the manner in which tax benefits are awarded under the Investment Law so that companies no longer require Investment Center approval in order to qualify for tax benefits. However, the Investment Law provides that terms and benefits included in any certificate of approval already granted will remain subject to the provisions of the law as they were on the date of such approval. Therefore, the Israeli companies with Approved Enterprise status will generally not be subject to the provisions of the Amendment. As a result of the amendment, tax-exempt income generated under the provisions of the new law, will subject the Company to taxes upon distribution or liquidation. Plans four, five and six are under Privileged Enterprise.

The first investment plan (First plan) benefit period has already expired.

The second investment plan (Second plan) benefit period has already expired.

In 1996, the Company received approval for its second expansion program (Third plan). The commencing year for the third plan was 2000 and the expected expiration year is 2010

In 2006, the Company received approval by the amendment to the Investment Law (Fourth plan) as a Privileged Enterprise. The commencing year was 2004. The Company did not generate income subject to the provision of the new law. The expected expiration year is 2015.

In 2007, the Company received approval by the amendment to the Investment Law (Fifth plan) as a Privileged Enterprise. The commencing year was 2006. The Company did not generate income subject to the provision of the new law. The expected expiration year is 2017.

In 2008, based on Company investments in property and equipment in the years 2007 and 2008, the Company submitted a request to approve a new plan (sixth plan) as a Privileged Enterprise in accordance with the Amendment to the Investment Law. The commencing year was 2008. The expected expiration year is 2019.

The entitlement to the above benefits is conditional upon the Company fulfilling the conditions stipulated by the above law, regulations published thereunder and the instruments of approval for the specific investments in "Approved Enterprises". In the event of failure to comply with these conditions, the benefits may be canceled and the Company may be required to refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, including interest.

Income not eligible for “Approved Enterprise” benefits mentioned above is taxed at a regular rate of 26% (27% in 2008). On July 25, 2005, an amendment to the Israeli tax law was approved by the Israeli parliament, which reduces the tax rates imposed on Israeli companies to 26% for 2009. This amendment states that the corporate tax rate will be further reduced in subsequent tax years as follows: in 2009 26% and thereafter 25% (or less according to the foreign ownership). This change does not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In the event of distribution by the Company of a cash dividend out of retained earnings that were tax exempt due to its Approved Enterprise status, the Company would have to pay a 25% corporate tax on the income from which the dividend was distributed. A 15% withholding tax may be deducted from dividends distributed to the recipients.

The Company has not provided deferred taxes on future distributions of tax-exempt earnings, as management and the Board of Directors have determined not to make any distribution that may result in a tax liability for the Company. Accordingly, such earnings have been considered to be permanently reinvested.

To date, the Company has not had earnings attributable to Approved Enterprise programs.

B. Tax assessments

Final tax assessments in Israel have been received up to and including the 2005 tax year.

Page 86

C. Deferred taxes

Deferred tax assets consist of the following significant items:

	YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
	2009			2008
	(in thousands)
Net operating loss carry forwards in Israel*	$	2,334		$	4,290
Net operating loss carry forwards of non-Israeli subsidiaries		7,471			8,553
R&D cost temporary differences		457			1,300
Other timing differences		1,163			1,067
Deferred tax asset		11,425			15,210
Valuation allowance		(8,265	)		(13,270	)
Long-term deferred tax asset, net of allowance	$	3,160		$	1,940

*Based on 25% tax rate (for 2008 26%).

Under ASC 740-10 (originally issued as SFAS No. 109), deferred tax assets are to be recognized for the anticipated tax benefits associated with net operating loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences; unless it is more-likely-than-not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The adjustment is made by a valuation allowance. Since in previous years the realization of the net operating loss carry-forwards and deductible temporary differences was less likely than not, a valuation allowance has been established for the full amount of the tax benefits. For 2008, based on historical taxable income from continuing operations and projections for future taxable income the Company determined that it is more likely than not that some of its deferred tax assets are expected to be realized, and reversed part of the valuation allowance. The reversal of the valuation allowance and other adjustments to the deferred tax assets resulted in the recognition of income tax benefits of $1,220 in 2009 and $1,940 in 2008.

As of December 31, 2009, net operating loss carryforwards in Israel amounted to approximately $14,000, approximately $21,000 attributable to the federal tax of the U.S. subsidiary, and approximately $4,300 attributable to the European subsidiaries. The tax loss carryforwards for Israel and the European companies have no expiration date. The tax loss carryforwards in the U.S. expire between 2012 and 2024. Utilization of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state law provisions. The annual limitations may result in the expiration of net operating losses before utilization.
