Re Agreement

Orad Hi-Tec Systems 29 August 2006 Orad Hi-Tec Systems Ltd ('Orad' or the 'Company') 29 August 2006 Deutsche Welle purchases Orad's news and master control room graphic systems for over €1 million Orad Hi-Tec Systems (Symbol: OHT), announced today that it has signed an agreement with leading German broadcaster, Deutsche Welle, for the supply of graphic systems, in a contract worth more than €1 million. This project is Orad's largest European news installation. As part of the agreement, Orad will introduce a completely new digital graphics workflow at both Deutsche Welle's studios and continuity rooms. The entire graphic system will be based on Orad's next generation HDVG video graphics rendering platform. The HDVG units will be installed in each one of the studios and continuity rooms, producing high quality 3D and 2D real-time graphics and animations. Deutsche Welle is a member of the ARD group which is publicly traded. Deutsche Welle broadcasts television programs, radio and internet to a worldwide audience. Deutsche Welle employs 1,500 staff members from more than 60 countries. In addition to the studios in Germany, ARD operates studios in Washington, Moscow and Brussels. Orad's solution for Deutsche Welle will be a template based one: The graphic templates will be generated by Orad's 3Designer authoring application and then populated with real-time data either manually or from external databases. A unique interface with Reuters' database will enable financial information to be displayed in real-time either in the form of a ticker or using Orad's line graphs for real-time graphic visualization of the financial data. In order to aid in the system's productivity, the entire solution will be database driven. All the graphic templates will be registered on a central database which can be accessed by multiple users who can select the relevant approved template. A sophisticated user's rights management policy will be developed to ensure proper content access for the Deutsche Welle personnel. The solution will also include multiple interfaces to external systems such as newsroom systems, Harris automation and Avid NLE systems. 'After careful and extensive examination of the solutions on the market, we chose Orad's and Miranda's graphic system to enable us to deliver up-to-date, multilingual TV programs with minimal time, effort and cost. We are convinced that Orad and Miranda's graphic system is the most capable to meet today's and future challenges for an up-to-date foreign broadcast, with 24 hour transmission, per day, in six languages'; states Mr. Falko Schutz Project Manager, Deutsche Welle TV. Mr. Avi Sharir President and CEO of Orad commented: 'Our solutions for 24/7 news operations are becoming increasingly popular.
