JOHN BROWN - RICHARD RINBERG LETTER

 From John Brown:

  

Dear Shareholder and/or Friend of Zion

Twenty five years ago I visited Israel and started a journey dedicated to the idea of finding oil and gas in Israel.

Now, Zion Oil & Gas, Inc., after years of scientific investigation and drilling the Ma'anit #1 well, has planned a multi-well program with the intention of bringing the idea to practical success and recovering the oil and gas that we believe lies deep under the Land of Israel.

We have much - licenses, scientific data, technology, qualified, experienced and honest people. But oil and gas exploration costs money, so we need investors who are willing to support our work. In the event of success, the investors' reward may be great. Not only financially, but also in the personal knowledge of being part of something truly historic, biblical and prophetic.

On May 14, 2008, exactly 60 years after Israel's Declaration of Independence was signed (on May 14, 1948), Zion's Underwriter will start to accept subscriptions for new $10 Units . You will find below a letter (from Richard Rinberg, Zion's Chief Executive Officer) describing the offer. The complete offering details appear on our website at www.zionoil.com

For those of you who are already Zion shareholders, please consider adding to your Zion holdings. For those who are not yet shareholders, please join us and buy some units.

Please note that if you buy shares on the Stock Exchange, your money goes to the seller of those shares and not to Zion. Please buy units in our offering, as then Zion will receive your money and we can continue towards the completion of our work. This offer has been carefully structured so that, in the event of great success, the person who buys units will receive a greater financial reward than if they just bought shares on the market.

My heartfelt wish to you is best expressed by two verses from Psalm 128.

'The Lord bless you from Zion'

'May you see the prosperity of Jerusalem all the days of your life.'

Sincerely,

John Brown

Founder and Chairman of the Board

From Richard Rinberg:

 

Dear Shareholder and/or Friend of Zion

 

In order to achieve our goal - the discovery of Oil & Gas in Israel - Zion needs to raise funds to pay for the cost of exploration and, more to the point, for drilling in Israel.

Although we have money in the bank, we wish to carry out as much as possible of the multi-well drilling program that we are planning for the coming two years.

So, Zion is now offering you the opportunity to purchase Units at $10 per Unit.

Each Unit will consist of: One Share of Zion stock + One Warrant.

The Warrant will allow you, until January 31, 2012, to buy One Share of Zion stock at a fixed price of $7 (irrespective of the price of Zion stock on the stockmarket).

So, a $10 subscription will buy One Share of Zion stock plus the right (but not the obligation) to buy One (more) Share of Zion stock at a fixed price of $7 (at any time from late 2008 until January 31, 2012).

The minimum subscription is 100 Units or $1,000 (as 100 x $10 = $1,000).

Zion stock is already traded on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) under the symbol ZN. In addition, after we have sold a minimum of 325,000 Units, the Units will trade on AMEX. After the termination of the offering, the Units will dissolve and both ZN Stock and ZN Warrants will trade on AMEX.

The full details regarding the offer are set out in the Prospectus which is available for you to download and review on our website www.zionoil.com

If you would prefer a hard copy, please call:

1-888-TX1-ZION or 1-888-891-9466 or email: dallas@zionoil.com

This offer represents an opportunity for you to participate directly in Zion's work and, in the event of success, to receive potentially greater reward than by just purchasing Zion stock in the market from another shareholder.

I very much hope that you will consider not only buying some Units in this offer, but also spreading the word regarding the work that Zion Oil & Gas, Inc is doing in Israel.

 

We need and value your support - Shalom from Israel
