Vyyo Enters Into a Definitive Agreement for $25 Million of Financing From Goldman, Sachs & Co.

21 March 2006

Vyyo Inc. (Nasdaq: VYYO), a global supplier of broadband access equipment for cable and private wireless broadband network solutions, announced today a definitive agreement for $25 million equity and long term debt from Goldman, Sachs & Co

This funding will provide Vyyo with increased resources and flexibility as it scales its business in the U.S. Vyyo's proprietary technologies provide three solutions to the cable and utility industries:

* Vyyo's spectrum overlay allows cable companies to substantially increase

bandwidth to fiber-like performance, using existing infrastructure and

at a fraction of the cost to build new fiber networks.

* Vyyo's T1 solution allows cable companies to tap into the lucrative

small and medium sized business and cellular backhaul segments, again

using existing infrastructure and at minimal cost.

* Vyyo's wireless technology allows utility companies to build expansive

wireless networks that can be used to monitor operations and to deliver

high-speed internet access to rural America.

"We regard Goldman Sachs' investment as a strong endorsement of our vision, our groundbreaking technology and the market opportunities in the cable and utility industries," said Davidi Gilo, Chairman and CEO of Vyyo. "Vyyo's technology is uniquely designed to allow cable system operators to meet the challenge of telco triple-play deployments head-on with dramatically increased bandwidth for new and faster residential and business services. For utility companies, our technology greatly enhances their performance metrics and introduces new market possibilities.

"Goldman Sachs has a track record of identifying high-potential technology companies, and supporting them with strategic advice as they grow," Mr. Gilo added. "Its financial involvement combined with its counsel and expertise will help Vyyo achieve its strategic objectives in 2006 and beyond."

Stewart Rauner and Jonathan Kalman of Katalyst LLC served as exclusive financial advisors to Vyyo with regard to the transaction.
