Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On October 18, 2007, Mizrahi Bank issued certain financial and performance guarantees in support of obligations of dsIT Solutions Ltd., a subsidiary of Acorn Factor, Inc., under a purchase order from the Israeli Ministry of Defense for a sonar and underwater acoustics system (the “dsIT Guarantees”). Acorn Factor, Inc., as guarantor, has issued a Deed of Guarantee to Mizrahi Bank, under which Acorn Factor pledged monies in an account with Mizrahi Bank in an amount up to $2,500,000 (the “Guarantee Funds”). The Deed of Guarantee was issued in order to secure the dsIT Guarantees. Mizrahi Bank will be entitled to draw from the Guarantee Funds as reimbursement in the event that it is required to pay any amounts under the dsIT Guarantees.
