      deemed to be held by Isal.

2.    TERM AND TERMINATION

      This Agreement shall come into effect contingent upon, and at the date of,
      the occurrence of the Closing of the Investment Agreement and the issuance
      of the Shares and Warrants (as defined  therein),  and shall  terminate at
      such time when (i) Isal shall hold Ordinary Shares  representing less than
      4% of NUR's  issued  share  capital  (provided  that for this  purpose the
      Warrants shall be deemed as exercised into Ordinary  Shares),  and/or (ii)
      the aggregate  number of the Ordinary  Shares held or controlled by Purjes
      (not  including  any warrants or options held by Purjes) shall be equal to
      less  than 20% of  NUR's  issued  share  capital  (provided  that for this
      purpose the Warrants shall be deemed as exercised into Ordinary Shares).

3. ELECTION OF ISAL'S DESIGNEE TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

      Prior to the  convening  of any  annual or  extraordinary  meeting  of the
      shareholders of NUR where members are to be elected to or removed from the
      Board,  Isal shall send Purjes a notice naming its candidate to serve as a

      member  on the  Board  ("ISAL'S  CANDIDATE"),  and at  such  shareholders'
      meeting,  Purjes and the entities  affiliated  with him shall  (unless the
      Isal Candidate is not reasonably suited to serve as a member of the Board)
      vote in favor of the appointment of Isal's  Candidate to the Board and the
      removal of any such director according to Isal's discretion.

4.    CO SALE

               4.1. Prior to any private sale,  including a series of sales,  by
          Purjes and entities  controlled by him, of Ordinary Shares held by him
          or by an entity controlled by him,  representing  accumulatively 5% or
          more of NUR's  issued  share  capital  (the  "OFFERED  SHARES") to any
          person or entity (the "THIRD PARTY" and the "PROPOSED  SALE"),  Purjes
          shall give Isal a written  notice  containing  the name and address of
          the Third Party,  the number of shares  included in the Proposed Sale,
          and the terms and conditions of the Proposed Sale ("Purjes's Notice"),
          so as to enable Isal to have the  opportunity  to  participate  in the
          Proposed  Sale  pursuant  to the  provisions  of this  Section  4 (the
          "CO-SALE RIGHT").

          4.2.  Isal shall have the right to  participate  in the Proposed  Sale
          with  respect to all or part of the Shares,  and the  Ordinary  Shares
          issued upon the exercise of the Warrants ("Isal's Shares"), by sending
          a written notice (the "Acceptance Notice") to Purjes within 3 business
          days from delivery of Purjes's Notice.  Upon receipt of the Acceptance
          Notice Purjes shall include Isal's shares in the Proposed Sale,  under
          the same terms,  and the number of Offered  Shares  that Purjes  shall
          sell shall be correspondingly reduced.

          4.3.  In the  Proposed  Sale  Isal may sell up to that  number  Isal's
          Shares  determined by  multiplying  the total number of Offered Shares
          times a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of Isal's
          Shares,  and the  denominator  of which is the number of Isal's Shares
          plus the total  number of shares  owned by Purjes  and/or by  entities
          controlled by Purjes.

          4.4. The  following  sales or  transfers of Ordinary  Shares by Purjes
          shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 4:

               4.4.1. Sales (or transfers) to immediate family members, provided
               that such shares shall  continue to be subject to this  Agreement
               and shall not be transferred  further except as provided  herein,
               and further provided that such sale or transfer shall not release
               Purjes from its obligations hereunder, for as long as such shares
               are controlled by Purjes; and

               4.4.2.  Sales (or transfers) to any company or entity controlled,
               directly or  indirectly  by Purjes,  provided  that the shares so
               transferred remain subject to this section 4; and

               4.4.3. Public Sales of Ordinary Shares.

               4.4.4. Charitable contributions of Ordinary Shares.
