Magal Reports a US$ 6.1 Million Framework Agreement for Israeli Seam-Line
Project
Thursday March 31, 8:00 am ET
YAHUD, Israel, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Magal Security Systems, Ltd.
(NASDAQ NM:MAGS - News; TASE:MAGS) today announced that it has signed a
framework agreement for US$6.1 million with the Israeli Ministry of Defense
(MOD) to continue the installation of intrusion detection systems along the
seam-line between Israel and the West Bank. This agreement is expected to be
completed by the end of the third quarter of 2005.
Mr. Even-Ezra, Chairman of Magal said: "This agreement is a follow-on from
previous orders that Magal has received in the past few years from the Israeli
MOD for the installation of the Company's intrusion detection systems along the
seam-line. We are gratified that the Israeli MOD has once again chosen us for
the important task of protecting Israel's borders. The Israeli MOD has
particularly stringent security and operational requirements. The fact that
Magal is chosen continually to protect the country's borders, where there is a
significant and persistent risk of terrorism, is testament to the quality and
success of Magal's offering."
Mr. Even-Ezra concluded: "We believe the company will continue to receive
further orders for the installation of our systems on the seam-line during this
year."
