              TOWER SEMICONDUCTOR ANNOUNCES APPROVAL BY THE ISRAEL
               SECURITIES AUTHORITY OF A PROSPECTUS TO ALLOW FOR
          UNRESTRICTED TRADING IN ISRAEL OF ITS LONG-TERM BONDS ISSUED
                                  IN JUNE 2007

          THE $40 MILLION OF PROCEEDS RAISED IN THE JUNE 2007 OFFERING
          WHICH WERE HELD IN ESCROW ARE TO BE RELEASED TO THE COMPANY

MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel - July 26, 2007 - Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (NASDAQ:
TSEM; TASE: TSEM), an independent specialty foundry, announced today that its
prospectus filed with the Israel Securities Authority and the Tel-Aviv Stock
Exchange, in connection with the long-term bonds offering to Israeli
institutions that was announced on June 13, 2007, has been declared effective.
As a result (i) the long-term bonds and warrants issued in June 2007 are to be
listed for unrestricted trade on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange; (ii) the
approximately $40 million of proceeds raised in June 2007, which were held in
escrow pending registration, are now free of any restriction and are to be
released to the company. The proceeds are expected to be used to fund, in part,
the Fab 2 capacity ramp-up plan as previously announced by the company, which is
planned to be implemented in a cost effective manner that capitalizes on current
unique tools acquisition opportunities the company is exploring.

The prospectus also covers the possible offer and sale by the company of an
additional up to approximately $17 million of long-term bonds and warrants of
the same type purchased by the Israeli institutions in June 2007. Such offering
will be made in Israel to Israeli residents only and will not be open to
investors from other countries.

The securities of the company covered by the prospectus will not be registered
under the United States Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in
the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from
registration requirements.
