Forward-Looking Statements

This  Report  on  Form  6-K  contains  forward-looking   statements,   including
projections  about our  business,  within  the  meaning  of  Section  27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934.
For example, statements in the future tense, and statements including words such
as "expect," "plan,"  "estimate,"  anticipate," or "believe" are forward-looking
statements.  These  statements are based on  information  available to us at the
time of the  Report;  we  assume  no  obligation  to  update  any of  them.  The
statements in this Report are not  guarantees of future  performance  and actual
results could differ  materially  from our current  expectations  as a result of
numerous factors,  including our ability to raise additional equity in the third
quarter to meet the  minimum  shareholders'  equity  requirement  for  continued
listing on the Small Cap Market, business conditions and growth or deterioration
in our  market,  commerce  and the  general  economy  both  domestic  as well as
international;  fewer  than  expected  new-partner  relationships;   competitive
factors including pricing pressures;  technological  developments,  and products
offered by  competitors;  availability  of qualified  staff for  expansion;  and
technological  difficulties and resource  constraints  encountered in developing
new products as well as those risks described in the company's Annual Reports on
Form 20-F and reports on Form 6-K, which are available through www.sec.gov.

Purpose of this Report

Following  a  hearing  on  June  17,  2004  in  front  of  the  Nasdaq   Listing
Qualifications  Panel (the  "Panel")  to appeal the Nasdaq  staff's  decision to
delist  the  Company's  shares  from  The  Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market,  the  Panel
determined that the Company's  ordinary shares will continue to be listed on The
Nasdaq SmallCap  Market  pursuant to an exception from the requirement  that the
Company maintain at least $2.5 million in shareholders  equity. The Company will
remain subject to this exception until the Panel determines that the Company has
demonstrated  an ability to sustain  compliance  with the minimum  shareholders'
equity requirement over the long term.

The Panel  conditioned  the  continuing  availability  of the  exception  on the
Company's continuing satisfaction of all other listing requirements of the Small
Cap Market and fulfillment of the following specific criteria:

a. On or before July 15, 2004,  the Company  must make a public  filing with the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission and Nasdaq of a balance sheet no older than
60  days  evidencing,  on a  proforma  as  adjusted  basis  for  any  subsequent
significant   events  or   transactions,   compliance   with  the  $2.5  million
shareholders'  equity  requirement.  The Company  believes that this filing will
satisfy this condition.

b. On or before July 31,  2004,  October 31,  2004 and  January  31,  2005,  the
Company is required to submit to Nasdaq  evidence of continued  compliance  with
the $2.5 million  shareholders'  equity requirement for the quarters ending June
30, September 30 and December 31, 2004 respectively.

Description of Transaction Resulting in Proforma Adjustment

On May 18, 2004,  Commtouch  entered into a securities  purchase  agreement  and
related  agreements for the sale of securities to certain investors of Commtouch
identified in the schedule of buyers in the securities purchase agreement. Those
investors committed to purchase 5,131,583 ordinary shares, additional investment
rights and  warrants  for an  aggregate  purchase  price of  $3,900,003.08  (the
"Financing").  Following shareholder approval of the Financing on June 28, 2004,
the Company closed the Financing on June 30, 2004.  The Company  intends to seek
additional  equity  during  the  third  fiscal  quarter  in  order to be able to
demonstrate  to Nasdaq  satisfaction  of the Nasdaq  Smallcap  Market's  minimum
shareholders'  equity  requirement for such quarter.

The additional  investment  rights and warrants are  exercisable at any time, at
the investors'  option,  into Commtouch ordinary shares at a price of $0.836. In
addition,  in connection with the Financing,  the conversion and exercise prices
of the initial notes and warrants (the "Initial  November  Securities"),  issued
pursuant to the  convertible  note  transaction of November 2003,  were adjusted
from $1.153 to $0.83,  respectively,  and the conversion and exercise  prices of
the additional notes and warrants, if and when issued thereunder,  were adjusted
from $1.153 to $0.90.  Additional  information  pertaining  to the  Financing is
located in the Company's Form 6-K filing with the SEC on May 19, 2004.

Proforma May 2004 Condensed Balance Sheets

Presented below are the following balance sheets:

     1.  Audited condensed balance sheet as at December 31, 2003

     2.  Unaudited condensed balance sheet as at May 2004

     3.  Unaudited  condensed  balance  sheet as at May 2004 on a pro forma,  as
         adjusted  basis,  to give  effect  to the  Financing.  The as  adjusted
         numbers reflect a private placement of 5,131,583 ordinary shares of the
         Company for an aggregate amount (net of financing fees) of $3.6 million
         and the reduction of the conversion and exercise  prices of the Initial
         November Securities from $1.153 to $0.83.
