FINAL results for the year ENDED 31 December 2008
Chairman's Statement
In the year ended 31 December 2008 the Company incurred a loss on continuing
operations of $3.9 million (2007: $2.75 million) on turnover of $4.8 million
(2007: $8.26 million). As at 31 December 2008, the Company had a cash portfolio
of $2.9 million (2007: $5.2 million).
During 2008, the Company continued to invest further efforts in the
development of its products. The Company has dramatically improved
videoconferencing experience of its products by launching the HD7000Pro, the
high definition room videoconferencing system. The Company has also released
the VCBPro7, an all-in-one, high definition Multipoint Control Unit
(MCU),which the Board believes is the first MCU on the market to deliver
integrated session-recording and streaming capabilities. The VCBPro7 includes
an embedded MXM, Emblaze-VCON's award-winning, full-feature management tool
for video network management and total gateway functionality for legacy and
advanced technologies. The Company has also begun work on a low-bandwidth
videoconferencing technology targeted at the satellite-based IP communications
market to allow video communications in remote regions of the world where
there is a lack of IP infrastructure.
On the operational side, ZONE-IP's subsidiary, Emblaze-VCON, has implemented
significant cost reductions in order to adjust to the general economic
climate.
Future Prospects
The Board expects that demand for video communication via desktop computers
will increase, specifically in light of the obvious need of organizations to
reduce costs of sales and traveling expenses. The convergence from legacy
analog systems into more advanced IP based products is taking place, however,
at a slower pace than we anticipated. Management will continue to work hard to
strengthen the Company's position. The board continues to seek ways to further
save costs and to operate in the most cost efficient way.

During 2008, EVC has entered into an agreement to sell certain of

received out of the consideration $ 1,622, net of payments to the Office of
the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Industry and net of commissions payable
to a firm of patent attorneys, which introduced the buyer to EVC, and
associated legal fees.
NOTE 5: - Income Taxes
a. Israeli taxation:
1. Corporate tax rate:
On 25 July 2005, the Israeli Parliament approved an amendment to
the Income Tax Ordinance (No. 147) 2005, which prescribes, among others, a
gradual decrease in the corporate tax rate in Israel to the following tax
rates: in 2008 - 27 per cent., in 2009 - 26 per cent., 2010 and thereafter -
25 per cent.
2. EVC submitted an application to assign the programs of VCON
under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments, 1959 ("the Law")
to EVC and thus enjoy the tax benefits (primarily reduced tax rates) of an
"Approved Enterprise" as defined by the Law. The application was approved by
the Israel Investment Center (a department of the Ministry of Industry, Trade
and Labor).
The Company's production facilities in Israel have been granted
"Approved Enterprise" status, for 6 investment programs approved under the
Law. According to the provisions of the Law, the Company has elected the
"alternative benefits" track, the waiver of grants in return for a tax
exemption and, accordingly, the Company's income from the "Approved
Enterprise" is tax exempt for a period of two years commencing with the year
it first earns taxable income and afterwards is entitled to a reduced tax rate
of 10 per cent to 25 per cent for an additional period of five to eight years
(depending on the level of foreign investment in the Company).
The entitlement to the above benefits is conditional upon the
fulfillment of the conditions stipulated by the above Law, regulations
published there under and the letters of approval for the specific investments
in "Approved Enterprises". In the event of failure to comply with these
conditions, the benefits may be cancelled and the Company may be required to
refund the amount of the benefits, in whole or in part, including interest.
The period of tax benefits, detailed above, is subject to limits of
the earlier of 12 years from the commencement of production, or 14 years from
the approval date. These limitation do not apply to the tax exempt period of
the first two years.
Income from sources other than the "Approved Enterprise" during the
benefit period will be subject to tax at the regular corporate tax rate.
3. On 1 April 2005, an amendment to the Investment Law came into
effect ("the Amendment") and has 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 an Approved Enterprise, such as provisions generally requiring
that at least 25 per cent. of the Approved Enterprise's income will be derived
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.
4. However, the Investment Law provides that terms and benefits
included in any letter 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 subsidiary's existing Approved Enterprise will generally not be
subject to the provisions of the Amendment.
EVC is an "industrial company" under the Law for the Encouragement
of Industry (Taxation), 1969 and as such is entitled to certain tax benefits,
including a reduction in the purchase price for patents or certain other
intangible property rights at the rate of 12.5 per cent. per year beginning
with the first year the Company used such intangible property rights and the
deduction of public offering expenses over three years.
b. Carry forward tax losses:
As of 31 December 2008, the Company has carry forward tax losses of
approximately $ 11,000 (2007: approximately $ 11,000) that can be carried
forward indefinitely.
As of 31 December 2008, EVC has carry forward tax losses of
approximately $ 7,800 (2007: approximately $ 5,000) that can be carried
forward indefinitely.
As of 31 December 2008, the U.S. subsidiary had U.S. federal carry
forward tax losses of approximately $ 4,700 (2007: $ 4,900) that can be
carried forward and offset against taxable income for 15-20 years and expire
between 2020 and 2025.
Management currently believes that since the Company and its
subsidiaries have no history of ongoing profits it is not probable that the
deferred tax asset in respect of the loss carry forwards and other temporary
differences, in the amount of $ 2,034 (2007 - $ 2,013), mainly due to research
and development differences, will be realized.
c. Tax assessments:
The Company received final tax assessments through 2004.
