PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Shareholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their ADRs on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the ADRs are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling ADRs:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the ADRs as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

privately negotiated transactions;

settlement of short sales created after the date of the private placement;

broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such ADRs at a stipulated price per ADR;

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The Selling Shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of ADRs, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Shareholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

The Selling Shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the ADRs owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the ADRS from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of Selling Shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as Selling Shareholders under this prospectus.

The Selling Shareholders also may transfer the ADRs in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the ADRs may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the ADRs purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Shareholders have informed us that none of them have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the ADRs.

We are required to pay all fees and expenses that we incur incident to the registration of the ADRs. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

DESCRIPTION OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS

American Depository Shares

On the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we issued and deposited the ordinary shares registered hereby with Bank Hapoalim B.M., The Bank of New York’s custodian in Tel Aviv, Israel. The Bank of New York in turn issued to the Selling Shareholders American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs, representing American Depositary Shares, or ADSs. One ADR represents an ownership interest in ten of our ordinary shares. Each ADR also represents securities, cash or other property deposited with The Bank of New York but not distributed to ADR holders. The Bank of New York’s Corporate Trust Office is located at 101 Barclay Street, New York, NY 10286, U.S.A. Their principal executive office is located at One Wall Street, New York, NY 10286, U.S.A.

You may hold ADRs either directly or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you hold ADRs directly, you are an ADR holder. This description assumes you hold your ADRs directly. If you hold the ADRs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution to assert the rights of ADR holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are.

Because The Bank of New York will actually hold the ordinary shares, you must rely on it to exercise the rights of a shareholder. The obligations of The Bank of New York are set out in a deposit agreement among us, The Bank of New York and you, as an ADR holder. The agreement and the ADRs are generally governed by New York law.

The following is a summary of the agreement. Because it is a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For more complete information, you should read the entire agreement and the ADR. Directions on how to obtain copies of these are provided in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

The Bank of New York has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of shares your ADRs represent.

Cash. The Bank of New York will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution we pay on the shares into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the U.S. If that is not possible or if any approval from any government or agency thereof is needed and cannot be obtained, the agreement allows The Bank of New York to distribute the foreign currency only to those ADR holders to whom it is possible to do so. It will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the ADR holders who have not been paid. It will not invest the foreign currency and it will not be liable for the interest.

Before making a distribution, any withholding taxes that must be paid under U.S. law will be deducted. See “Taxation—United States Federal Income Tax Considerations—Taxation of Dividends Paid On Ordinary Shares.” The Bank of New York will distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate during a time when The Bank of New York cannot convert the foreign currency, you may lose some or all of the value of the distribution.

Shares. The Bank of New York may distribute new ADRs representing any shares we may distribute as a dividend or free distribution, if we furnish it promptly with satisfactory evidence that it is legal to do so. The Bank of New York will only distribute whole ADRs. It will sell shares which would require it to use a fractional ADR and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If The Bank of New York does not distribute additional ADRs, each ADR will also represent the new shares.

Rights to receive additional shares. If we offer holders of our ordinary shares any rights to subscribe for additional shares or any other rights, The Bank of New York may make these rights available to you. We must first instruct The Bank of New York to do so and furnish it with satisfactory evidence that it is legal to do so. If we do not furnish this evidence and/or give these instructions, and The Bank of New York decides it is practical to sell the rights, The Bank of New York will sell the rights and distribute the proceeds, in the same way as it does with cash. The Bank of New York may allow rights that are not distributed or sold to lapse. In that case, you will receive no value for them. If The Bank of New York makes rights available to you, upon instruction from you, it will exercise the rights and purchase the shares on your behalf. The Bank of New York will then deposit the shares and issue ADRs to you. It will only exercise rights if you pay it the exercise price and any other charges the rights require you to pay.

- 13 -

U.S. securities laws may restrict the sale, deposit, cancellation and transfer of the ADRs issued after exercise of rights. For example, you may not be able to trade the ADRs freely in the U.S. In this case, The Bank of New York may issue the ADRs under a separate restricted deposit agreement which will contain the same provisions as the agreement, except for the changes needed to put the restrictions in place.

Other Distributions. The Bank of New York will send to you anything else we distribute on deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair and practical. If it cannot make the distribution in that way, The Bank of New York has a choice. It may decide to sell what we distributed and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash or it may decide to hold what we distributed, in which case the ADRs will also represent the newly distributed property.

The Bank of New York is not responsible if it decides that it is unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to any ADR holders. We have no obligation to register ADRs, shares, rights or other securities under the Securities Act. We also have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of ADRs, shares, rights or anything else to ADR holders. This means that you may not receive the distribution we make on our shares or any value for them if it is illegal or impractical for us to make them available to you.

Deposit, Withdrawal and Cancellation

The Bank of New York will issue ADRs if you or your broker deposit shares or evidence of rights to receive shares with the custodian upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees. The Bank of New York will register the appropriate number of ADRs in the names you request and will deliver the ADRs at its office to the persons you request.

You may turn in your ADRs at The Bank of New York’s office. Upon payment of its fees and expenses and of any taxes or charges, such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees, The Bank of New York will deliver (1) the underlying shares to an account designated by you and (2) any other deposited securities underlying the ADR at the office of the custodian; or, at your request, risk and expense, The Bank of New York will deliver the deposited securities at its office.

Voting Rights

You may instruct The Bank of New York to vote the shares underlying your ADRs but only if we ask The Bank of New York to ask for your instructions. Otherwise, you won’t be able to exercise your right to vote unless you withdraw the shares. However, you may not know about the meeting enough in advance to withdraw the shares.

If we ask for your instructions, The Bank of New York will notify you of the upcoming vote and arrange to deliver our voting materials to you. The materials will (1) describe the matters to be voted on and (2) explain how you, on a certain date, may instruct The Bank of New York to vote the shares or other deposited securities underlying your ADRs as you direct. For instructions to be valid, The Bank of New York must receive them on or before the date specified. The Bank of New York will try, as far as practical, subject to Israeli law and the provisions of our Articles of Association, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as you instruct. The Bank of New York will only vote or attempt to vote as you instruct. However, if The Bank of New York does not receive your voting instructions, it will deem you to have instructed it to give a discretionary proxy to vote the shares underlying your ADRs to a person designated by us provided that no such instruction shall be deemed given and no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter as to which we inform The Bank of New York that (x) we do not wish such proxy given, (y) substantial opposition exists, (z) such matter materially affects the rights of the holders of the shares underlying the ADRs.

We cannot assure you that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct The Bank of New York to vote your shares. In addition, The Bank of New York and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that you may not be able to exercise your right to vote and there may be nothing you can do if your shares are not voted as you requested.

Rights of Non-Israeli Shareholders to Vote

Our ADSs may be freely held and traded pursuant to the General Permit and the Currency Control Law. The ownership or voting of ADSs by non-residents of Israel are not restricted in any way by our Articles of Association or by the laws of the State of Israel.

Fees and Expenses

ADR holders must pay:		For:
$5.00 (or less) per 100 ADSs (or portion thereof)		Each issuance of an ADS, including as a result of a distribution of shares or rights or other property. Each cancellation of an ADS, including if the agreement terminates.
$0.02 (or less) per ADS		Any cash payment.

Registration or Transfer Fees		Transfer and registration of shares on the share register of the Foreign Registrar from your name to the name of The Bank of New York or its agent when you deposit or withdraw shares.
Expenses of The Bank of New York		Conversion of foreign currency to U.S. dollars. Cable, telex and facsimile transmission expenses. Servicing of shares or deposited securities.
$0.02 (or less) per ADS per calendar year (if the depositary has not collected any cash distribution fee during that year)		Depositary services.
Taxes and other governmental charges		As necessary The Bank of New York or the Custodian have to pay on any ADR or share underlying an ADR, for example, stock transfer taxes, stamp duty or withholding taxes.

A fee equivalent to the fee that would be payable if securities distributed to you had been ordinary shares and the ordinary shares had been deposited for issuance of ADSs		Distribution of securities distributed to holders of deposited securities which are distributed by the depositary to ADR holders.

Payment of Taxes

You will be responsible for any taxes or other governmental charges payable on your ADRs or on the deposited securities underlying your ADRs. The Bank of New York may refuse to transfer your ADRs or allow you to withdraw the deposited securities underlying your ADRs until such taxes or other charges are paid. It may apply payments owed to you or sell deposited securities underlying your ADRs to pay any taxes owed and you will remain liable for any deficiency. If it sells deposited securities, it will, if appropriate, reduce the number of ADRs to reflect the sale and pay to you any proceeds, or send to you any property, remaining after it has paid the taxes.

- 15 -

Reclassifications, Recapitalizations and Mergers

If we:		Then:
Change the nominal or par value of our shares;		The cash, shares or other securities received by The Bank of New York will become deposited securities. Each ADR will automatically represent its equal share of the new deposited securities. The Bank of New York may, and will if we ask it to, distribute some or all of the cash, shares or other securities it received. It may also issue new ADRs or ask you to surrender your outstanding ADRs in exchange for new ADRs, identifying the new deposited securities.
Reclassify, split up or consolidate any of the deposited securities;
Distribute securities on the shares that are not distributed to you; or
Recapitalize, reorganize, merge, liquidate, sell all or substantially all of our assets, or takes any similar action.

Amendment and Termination

We may agree with The Bank of New York to amend the agreement and the ADRs without your consent for any reason. If the amendment adds or increases fees or charges, except for taxes and other governmental charges or registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses, or prejudices an important right of ADR holders, it will only become effective thirty days after The Bank of New York notifies you of the amendment. At the time an amendment becomes effective, you are considered, by continuing to hold your ADR, to agree to the amendment and to be bound by the ADRs and the agreement is amended.

The Bank of New York will terminate the agreement if we ask it to do so. The Bank of New York may also terminate the agreement if The Bank of New York has told us that it would like to resign and we have not appointed a new depositary bank within ninety days. In both cases, The Bank of New York must notify you at least ninety days before termination.

After termination, The Bank of New York and its agents will be required to do only the following under the agreement: (1) advise you that the agreement is terminated, and (2) collect distributions on the deposited securities and deliver shares and other deposited securities upon cancellation of ADRs. After termination, The Bank of New York will, if practical, sell any remaining deposited securities by public or private sale. After that, The Bank of New York will hold the proceeds of the sale, as well as any other cash it is holding under the agreement for the pro rata benefit of the ADR holders that have not surrendered their ADRs. It will not invest the money and will have no liability for interest. The Bank of New York’s only obligations will be to account for the proceeds of the sale and other cash. After termination our only obligations will be with respect to indemnification and to pay certain amounts to The Bank of New York.

Limitations on Obligations and Liability to ADR Holders

The agreement expressly limits our obligations and the obligations of The Bank of New York, and it limits our liability and the liability of The Bank of New York. We and The Bank of New York:

are only obligated to take the actions specifically set forth in the agreement without negligence or bad faith;

are not liable if either is prevented or delayed by law or circumstances beyond their control from performing their obligations under the agreement;

are not liable if either exercises discretion permitted under the agreement;

have no obligation to become involved in a lawsuit or other proceeding related to the ADRs or the agreement on your behalf or on behalf of any other party; and

- 16 -

may rely upon any documents they believe in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party.

In the agreement, we and The Bank of New York agree to indemnify each other under certain circumstances.

Requirements for Depositary Actions

Before The Bank of New York will issue or register transfer of an ADR, make a distribution on an ADR, or make a withdrawal of shares, The Bank of New York may require payment of stock transfer or other taxes or other governmental charges and transfer or registration fees charged by third parties for the:

transfer of any shares or other deposited securities;

production of satisfactory proof of the identity and genuineness of any signature or other information it deems necessary, and

compliance with regulations it may establish, from time to time, consistent with the agreement, including presentation of transfer documents.

The Bank of New York may refuse to deliver, transfer, or register transfers of ADRs generally when the books of The Bank of New York or our books are closed, or at any time if The Bank of New York or we think it advisable to do so. You have the right to cancel your ADRs and withdraw the underlying shares at any time except:

when temporary delays arise because: (1) The Bank of New York or we have closed its transfer books; (2) the transfer of shares is blocked to permit voting at a shareholders’ meeting; or (3) we are paying a dividend on the shares; or

when it is necessary to prohibit withdrawals in order to comply with any laws or governmental regulations that apply to ADRs or to the withdrawal of shares or other deposited securities.

This right of withdrawal may not be limited by any other provision of the agreement.

Pre-Release of ADRs

In certain circumstances, subject to the provisions of the agreement, The Bank of New York may issue ADRs before deposit of the underlying shares. This is called a pre-release of the ADR. The Bank of New York may also deliver shares upon cancellation of pre-released ADRs (even if the ADRs are cancelled before the pre-release transaction has been closed out). A pre-release is closed out as soon as the underlying shares are delivered to The Bank of New York. The Bank of New York may receive ADRs instead of shares to close out a pre-release. The Bank of New York may pre-release ADRs only under the following conditions: (1) before or at the time of the pre-release, the person to whom the pre-release is being made must represent to The Bank of New York in writing that it or its customer owns the shares or ADRs to be deposited; (2) the pre-release must be fully collateralized with cash or other collateral that The Bank of New York considers appropriate; and (3) The Bank of New York must be able to close out the pre-release on not more than five business days’ notice. In addition, The Bank of New York will limit the number of ADRs that may be outstanding at any time as a result of prerelease, although The Bank of New York may disregard the limit from time to time, if it thinks it is appropriate to do so.

Inspection of Books of the Depositary

Under the terms of the agreement, holders of ADRs may inspect the transfer books of the depositary at any reasonable time, provided that such inspection shall not be for the purpose of communicating with holders of ADRs in the interest of a business or object other than either our business or a matter related to the deposit agreement or ADRs.

- 17 -

Book-Entry Only Issuance - The Depository Trust Company

The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the ADRs. The ADRs will be represented by one global security that will be deposited with and registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee), or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. This means that we will not issue certificates to you for the ADRs. One global security will be issued to DTC, which will keep a computerized record of its participants (for example, your broker) whose clients have purchased the ADRs. Each participant will then keep a record of its clients. Unless it is exchanged in whole or in part for a certificated security, a global security may not be transferred. However, DTC, its nominees, and their successors may transfer a global security as a whole to one another. Beneficial interests in the global security will be shown on, and transfers of the global security will be made only through, records maintained by DTC and its participants.

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the United States Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered under the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act . DTC holds securities that its participants (direct participants) deposit with DTC. DTC also records the settlement among direct participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through computerized records for direct participant’s accounts. This eliminates the need to exchange certificates. Direct participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations.

DTC’s book-entry system is also used by other organizations such as securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies that work through a direct participant. The rules that apply to DTC and its participants are on file with the SEC.

DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, or DTCC. DTCC is, in turn, owned by a number of DTC’s direct participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc. and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

When you purchase ADRs through the DTC system, the purchases must be made by or through a direct participant, who will receive credit for the ADRs on DTC’s records. Since you actually own the ADRs, you are the beneficial owner and your ownership interest will only be recorded on the direct (or indirect) participants’ records. DTC has no knowledge of your individual ownership of the ADRs. DTC’s records only show the identity of the direct participants and the amount of ADRs held by or through them. You will not receive a written confirmation of your purchase or sale or any periodic account statement directly from DTC. You will receive these from your direct (or indirect) participant. Thus the direct (or indirect) participants are responsible for keeping accurate account of the holdings of their customers like you.

We will wire dividend payments to DTC’s nominee, and we will treat DTC’s nominee as the owner of the global security for all purposes. Accordingly, we will have no direct responsibility or liability to pay amounts due on the global security to you or any other beneficial owners in the global security.

Any redemption notices will be sent by us directly to DTC, who will in turn inform the direct participants, who will then contact you as a beneficial holder.

It is DTC’s current practice, upon receipt of any payment of dividends or liquidation amount, to credit direct participants’ accounts on the payment date based on their holdings of beneficial interests in the global securities as shown on DTC’s records. In addition, it is DTC’s current practice to assign any consenting or voting rights to direct participants whose accounts are credited with preferred securities on a record date, by using an omnibus proxy. Payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the global securities, and voting by participants, will be based on the customary practices between the participants and owners of beneficial interests, as is the case with the ADRs held for the account of customers registered in “street name.” However, payments will be the responsibility of the participants and not of DTC or us.

- 18 -

ADRs represented by a global security will be exchangeable for certificated securities with the same terms in authorized denominations only if:

DTC is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or if DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under applicable law and a successor depositary is not appointed by us within 90 days; or

we determine not to require all of the ADRs to be represented by a global security.

If the book-entry only system is discontinued, the transfer agent will keep the registration books for the ADRs at its corporate office.

The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources we believe to be reliable, but we take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

EXPERTS

The financial statements of XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006, and for the period from March 9, 1993 (inception) to December 31, 2006 included in this prospectus on Form F−3 have been so included in reliance on the report of Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., an independent registered public accounting firm, Trade Tower, 25 Hamered Street, Tel Aviv 68125, Israel, except with respect to the period from March 9, 1993 to December 31, 2000 which is included in reliance on the report of Somekh Chaikin a member firm of KPMG International, an independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG Millennium Tower, 17 Ha’arba’a Street, Tel Aviv, 64739, Israel, which reports are incorporated by reference herein and upon the authority of said firms as experts in auditing and accounting.

With respect to the unaudited financial information of XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. for the six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 included with this prospectus, Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., reported that they have applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards for a review of such information. However, their separate report dated August 14, 2007, included herewith, states that they did not audit and they do not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance on their report on such information should be restricted in light of the limited nature of the review procedures applied. Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 for their report on the unaudited financial information because that report is not a “report” or a “part” of the registration statement prepared or certified by Kesselman & Kesselman, a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Ltd., within the meanings of Sections 7 and 11 of the Act.

Re:	Review of unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
	for the six months ended June 30, 2007

At your request, we have reviewed the interim consolidated balance sheet of XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. (hereafter - the Company) and its subsidiaries at June 30, 2007 and the interim consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the six month period then ended. We have also reviewed the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the period from March 9, 1993 (incorporation date) to June 30, 2007 (the amounts included therein, which relate to the period through December 31, 2000, are based on the financial statements for 2000, which were audited by another accounting firm). These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

Our review was performed in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

In performing our review, nothing came to our attention that indicated that material adjustments should be made to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above in order for them to be considered as having been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred significant losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2007 which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Sincerely yours,

/s/ Kesselman & Kesselman

XTL BIOPHARMACEUTICALS LTD.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2007 (unaudited)

Note 1 - General

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

XTL Biopharmaceuticals Ltd. (the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the acquisition, development and commercialization of therapeutics for the treatment of unmet medical needs, particularly neuropathic pain and hepatitis C. The Company was incorporated under the Israel Companies Ordinance on March 9, 1993. The Company is a development stage company in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises.”

In September 2005, the Company licensed from VivoQuest Inc. (“VivoQuest”), a United States (“US”) privately-held company, perpetual, exclusive, and worldwide rights to VivoQuest’s intellectual property and technology, covering a proprietary compound library, which includes VivoQuest’s lead hepatitis C compounds. In addition, the Company also acquired from VivoQuest certain assets.

The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary in the US, XTL Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Subsidiary”), which was incorporated in 1999 under the laws of the State of Delaware. Subsidiary is primarily engaged in development activities and business development. Subsidiary also has a wholly-owned subsidiary, XTL Development, Inc. (“XTL Development”), which was incorporated in 2007 under the laws of the State of Delaware and is engaged in development activities. See Note 4 in regards to XTL Development’s agreement with DOV Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“DOV”).

Through June 30, 2007, the Company has incurred losses in an aggregate amount of US $129.6 million. Such losses have resulted from the Company’s activities as a development stage company. It is expected that the Company will be able to finance its operations from its current reserves through 2007. Continuation of the Company’s current operations after utilizing its current cash reserves is dependent upon the generation of additional financial resources either through agreements for the commercialization of its product portfolio or through external financing. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has not generated any revenues from its planned principal operations and is dependent upon significant financing to provide the working capital necessary to execute its business plan. If the Company determines that it is necessary to seek additional funding, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain any such funding on terms that are acceptable to it, if at all.

The interim financial statements at June 30, 2007 (“the interim statements”) were drawn up in condensed form, in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Thus, the accounting principles applied in preparation of the interim statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of annual financial statements. Nevertheless, the interim statements do not include all the information and explanations required for annual financial statements. Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

STOCK - BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees and directors in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R “Share - Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company obtains employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of a company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of a company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS 123R requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using the grant-date fair value based method.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to third party service providers (non-employees) in accordance with the fair value method prescribed by SFAS 123R, and the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”).

- 26 -

The Company accounts for the transaction advisory fee in the form of stock appreciation rights (see Note 5) in accordance with the provisions of EITF 96-18 and by the provisions of EITF No. 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”).

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

Research and development costs are expensed as they are incurred and consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, fees paid to consultants and other third-parties for clinical and laboratory development, license and milestone fees, and facilities-related and other expenses relating to the design, development, testing, and enhancement of product candidates.

In connection with the purchase of assets, amounts assigned to intangible assets to be used in a particular research and development project that have not reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use are charged to in-process research and development costs at the purchase date.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes the revenue from its licensing agreement with Cubist Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Cubist”) under the provisions of the EITF No. 00-21 “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” and Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 “Revenue Recognition.” Under those pronouncements, companies are required to allocate revenues from multiple-element arrangements to the different elements based on sufficient objective and reliable evidence of fair value. Since the Company does not have the ability to determine the fair value of each unit of accounting, the agreement was accounted for as one unit of accounting, after failing the separation criteria, and the Company recognizes each payment on the abovementioned agreement ratably over the expected life of the arrangement. See also Note 6 - Subsequent Events.

INCOME TAXES

On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the criteria for recognizing tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and requires additional financial statement disclosure. In summary, FIN 48 prescribes a new recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

The adoption of FIN 48 has had no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position, since the Company has had no uncertain tax positions that fall within FIN 48.

In addition, the Company’s practice will be to recognize interest and penalties related to tax contingencies as income tax expense. As of January 1, 2007, tax contingencies include an immaterial amount related to interest and penalties none of which related to the adoption of FIN 48.

The Company files income tax returns in Israel. The Company received tax assessments for the years up to and including the 1998 tax year. The Company’s tax returns until 2002 are considered final.

The Company and Subsidiary file income tax returns in the US federal jurisdiction and in various states. The Company files US income tax returns since it had a permanent establishment in the US, which began in 2005. For those returns, the statute of limitations has expired for years prior to 2003. Tax years 2003 through 2006 are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities, respectively. There are no income tax examinations currently in process, and the Subsidiary has not been audited for tax purposes since incorporation.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS IN THE UNITED STATES

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors’ requests for more information about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the information used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect that fair value measurements have on earnings. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (January 1, 2008 for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

- 27 -

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (January 1, 2008 for the Company). The Company is evaluating the potential impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

FUNCTIONAL CURRENCY

The currency of the primary economic environment in which the operations of the Company are conducted is the US dollar (“$” or “dollar”). Most of the Company’s expenses and revenues are incurred in dollars. A significant part of the Company’s capital expenditures and most of its external financing is in dollars. The Company holds most of its cash, cash equivalents and bank deposits in dollars. Thus, the functional currency of the Company is the dollar.

Since the dollar is the primary currency in the economic environment in which the Company operates, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the dollar (principally “cash and cash equivalents” and “accounts payable and accrued expenses”) are remeasured using the representative foreign exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Operational accounts and nonmonetary balance sheet accounts are measured and recorded at the rate in effect at the date of the transaction. The effects of foreign currency remeasurement are reported in current operations (as “financial and other income - net”) and have not been material to date. At June 30, 2007, the exchange rate of one dollar was New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) 4.249 (NIS 4.225 at December 31, 2006 and NIS 4.44 at June 30, 2006).

Note 2 - Shareholders’ Equity

On April 26, 2007, the Company’s board of directors granted options to its employees and consultants to purchase a total of 500,000 ordinary shares at an exercise price equal to $0.374 per share (a price equal to the closing price of the Company’s American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), representing American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), on the grant date, divided by ten). These options are exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of issuance, and granted under the Company’s 2001 Share Option Plan. The options vest annually over a period of one to four years.

Note 3 - Property and Equipment

The Company leased an aggregate of approximately 1,776 square meters of office and laboratory facilities in Rehovot, Israel, pursuant to a lease agreement that was set to expire in April 2007. On February 28, 2007, the Company exercised an option to renew the lease and to downsize the facilities to 414 square meters of office space; the renewed lease expires in April 2008, with an option to extend for an additional year through April 2009.

Subsequent to renewing the lease, the Company determined to dispose of certain unused assets (primarily lab equipment). Under the provisions of SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), the Company’s management reviewed the carrying value of certain property and equipment (primarily laboratory equipment), and recorded an impairment charge in an amount of $95,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company’s unused assets (primarily lab equipment) which are held-for-sale were classified as current assets at their net book value of $35,000. The Company expects to dispose of these assets during the remainder of 2007.

Note 4 - License Agreement with DOV Pharmaceutical, Inc.

In January 2007, XTL Development signed an agreement with DOV to in-license the worldwide rights for Bicifadine, a serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) (the “DOV Transaction”). XTL Development intends to develop Bicifadine for the treatment of neuropathic pain - a chronic condition resulting from damage to peripheral nerves.

- 28 -

In accordance with the terms of the license agreement, XTL Development made an initial up-front payment of $7.5 million in cash, which was expensed in “Research Development Costs” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2007. In addition, XTL Development will make milestone payments of up to $126.5 million, in cash and/or ordinary shares of the Company over the life of the license, of which up to $115 million will be due upon or after regulatory approval of the product. XTL Development is also obligated to pay royalties to DOV on net sales of Bicifadine.

Note 5 – Transaction Advisory Fee Structured in the Form of Stock Appreciation Rights

In January 2007, XTL Development committed to pay a transaction advisory fee to third party intermediaries in regards to the DOV Transaction. The transaction advisory fee was structured in the form of stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) in the amount equivalent to (i) 3% of the Company’s fully diluted ordinary shares at the close of the transaction (representing 8,299,723 ordinary shares), vesting one year after the close of the transaction, and (ii) 7% of the Company’s fully diluted ordinary shares at the close of the transaction (representing 19,366,019 ordinary shares), vesting following successful Phase III clinical trial results or the acquisition of the Company. Payment of the SARs by XTL Development can be satisfied, at the Company’s discretion, in cash and/or by issuance of the Company’s registered ordinary shares. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the amount paid by the Company will be an amount equal to the amount by which the fair market value of one ordinary share of the Company on the exercise date exceeds the $0.34 grant price for such SAR (fair market value equals (i) the greater of the closing price of an ADR on the exercise date or (ii) the preceding five day ADR closing price average, divided by ten). The SARs expire on January 15, 2017. In the event of the termination of the license agreement under the DOV Transaction, any unvested SARs shall expire. In accordance with EITF 96-18 and EITF 00-19, the Company records SAR compensation expense which is included in Business Development Costs based on the fair value of the SAR at the reporting date, and the liability has been recorded as “other current liabilities” on its Consolidated Balance Sheet. The SAR compensation will be revalued, based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date, until payment of the stock appreciation rights have been satisfied.

Note 6 - Subsequent Events

On July 19, 2007, Cubist terminated the HepeX-B license agreement with the Company. As a result, during the subsequent reporting period, the Company will write-off the deferred gain of $597,000 and record license revenues of $680,000 and cost of revenues of $83,000.

In July 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with a clinical research organization regarding its planned Phase IIb study for Bicifadine in diabetic neuropathic pain.

On August 14, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors, convened a shareholders meeting for September 25, 2007 in order for shareholders to approve that: (i) the registered share capital of the Company be increased from 300,000,000 Ordinary Shares to 500,000,000 Ordinary Shares, NIS 0.02 nominal value each, and (ii) the listing of the Company’s Ordinary Shares on the Official List of the United Kingdom Listing Authority be cancelled.

Item 10. Undertakings

A. Rule 415 Offering

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)

To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A. of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering.

II-2

B. Subsequent Documents Incorporated By Reference

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the Securities offered therein, and the offering of such Securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Indemnification of Officers, Directors and Controlling Persons

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
