Internet Gold Reports Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2019

Ramat Gan, Israel - November 18, 2019 - Internet Gold - Golden Lines Ltd. (the "Company" or "Internet Gold") (NASDAQ Global Select Market and TASE: IGLD), a holding company whose principal asset is a 51.95% stake in B Communications Ltd. ("B Communications") (NASDAQ and TASE: BCOM), that owns 26.34% of the outstanding shares of Bezeq The Israel Telecommunication Corporation Limited, the leading communication group in Israel ("Bezeq") (TASE: BEZQ), today reported its financial results for the third quarter of 2019.

In January 2019, the Company reported that because of its inability to generate funds by selling its ownership interest in B Communications, it intends to withhold payments to its debenture holders until further notice. As a result, the Company's long-term debt was classified as "short-term" debt.

The Searchlight Transaction

On June 24, 2019 the Company announced the execution of a definitive agreement (the "SPA") among the Company, B Communications, Searchlight II BZQ, L.P. ("Searchlight") and T.N.R Investments Ltd. (together with Searchlight, the "Purchasers" and the "Searchlight Transaction").

The Searchlight Transaction provides for the sale by the Company of its entire holdings in B Communications for the aggregate sum of NIS 225 million and an investment by the Company in B Communications of NIS 345 million (consisting of the amount to be paid by the Purchasers for the B Communications shares held by the Company and an additional NIS 120 million). In consideration, the Company will receive NIS 310 million par value of Series C debentures of B Communications as well as 8,383,234 ordinary shares of B Communications.

One of the conditions to closing of the Searchlight Transaction is the receipt of court approval pursuant to Section 350 of the Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the "Arrangement"). On August 20, 2019, the court approved our petition to approve the Arrangement, following the approval of our creditors and shareholders.

On November 11, 2019 the Purchasers notified the Company that the Ministry of Communications has issued a control permit in Bezeq (the "Control Permit") to the Purchasers. Issuance of the Control Permit is a condition to closing of the Searchlight Transaction.

The Company is currently in discussions with the Purchasers to finalize all remaining open items before the closing of the transaction. As of this date, the expected closing date of the Searchlight Transaction is December 2, 2019. There is no certainty that the transaction will be consummated.

Even if the Searchlight Transaction will be consummated, the Company will not be able to fully pay its debts, and it intends to initiate an additional creditors' arrangement which will be submitted to the applicable Israeli court pursuant to Section 350. The Company anticipates that pursuant to such arrangement, the existing shares of the Company will be nullified and that contemporaneously the creditors of the Company will receive, among other items, 100% of the outstanding shares of the Company.

In light of the above, on October 6, 2019 the Company announced that it has been exploring potential strategic alternatives. These alternatives include the acquisition of a new business or a sale of the Company. Such a transaction will likely be subject to an approval by the Israeli court as part of a creditors' arrangement. There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any transaction or, if a transaction is undertaken, as to its terms, structure or timing.

Designated Disclosure with Respect to the Company's Projected Cash Flows

In connection with the issuance of the Series D Debentures in 2014, we undertook to comply with the "hybrid model disclosure requirements" as determined by the Israeli Securities Authority and as described in the prospectus governing our Series D Debentures.

This model provides that in the event certain financial "warning signs" exist, and for as long as they exist, we will be subject to certain disclosure obligations towards the holders of our Series D Debentures.

As aforementioned, in January 2019, the Company reported that because of its inability to generate funds by selling its ownership interest in B Communications, it intends to withhold payments to its debenture holders until further notice.

As described above, on June 24, 2019, the Company entered into the Searchlight Transaction. Even if the Searchlight Transaction is consummated, the Company will not be able to fully pay its debts, and intends to initiate an additional creditors' arrangement which will be submitted to the applicable Israeli court pursuant to Section 350 of the Israeli Companies Law. The Company anticipates that pursuant to such arrangement, the existing shares of the Company will be nullified and that the creditors of the Company will receive100% of the shares of the Company and other consideration.

Our unconsolidated unaudited cash flow statement for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 reflects, as expected, a continuing negative cash flow from operating activities of NIS 2 million. In addition, the Company's unconsolidated unaudited statements of financial position as of September 30, 2019, reflect that the Company had an equity deficit of NIS 967 million and negative working capital of approximately NIS 640 million as of such date. The negative working capital is a result of the classification of the Company's long term debt as "short-term" debt.
