MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel – September 06, 2020 – Tower Semiconductor (NASDAQ/TASE: TSEM), today announced that the

Tower has notified relevant authorities and is working closely with law enforcement organizations and with a leading team of worldwide experts, coordinated with its insurance providers, in order
to recover the impacted systems as soon as possible. The Company has implemented specific measures to prevent the expansion of this event. At this point there is no assessment as to the actual effect on the Company.
