NUR also announced that Dan Purjes, NUR's former Chairman and beneficial owner of approximately 36% of NUR's outstanding ordinary shares, filed a complaint against NUR in the Supreme Court, New York County for the reinstatement of his voting rights, the control of which had been granted to NUR pursuant to a voting agreement dated January 23, 2005.
