Dear Sirs,

          Re:  KOOR INDUSTRIES LTD. (COMPANY NO.  52-001414-3)
               IMMEDIATE REPORT NO. 44/99


Koor Industries Ltd (Hereinafter: "Koor"), hereby gives notice as follows:

Yesterday evening an agreement was signed between Koor and Clal Industries and
Investments Ltd ("Clal") where Koor will sell all its holdings in Mashav
Initiating and Development Ltd ("Mashav") to Clal. This agreement replaces
previous agreement signed between Koor and Clal regarding Mashav.

Koor will receive in consideration approximately 216 million dollars from Clal.
In addition, Koor will receive 47.5% of the shares of Mashal Alumina Industries.
Mashal Alumina Industries is a subsidiary of Mashav whose primary business is
developing a process to produce Alumina - synthetically produced aluminum oxide.

Preceding the completion of the sale, Mashav will distribute a dividend to Koor
and Clal of approximately 168 million dollars (Koor's share in the dividend will
be approximately 84 million dollars).

Koor's expected net capital gain from this sale is approximately 80 million
dollars.

The transaction is to be completed on January 6, 2000, subject to the approval
of the trade commissioner.


Sincerely yours,

Adv.  Shlomo Heller
Legal Counsel and Company Secretary
