Re:      Tower Semiconductor Ltd.
            Incoming letter dated April 15, 2026

Dear Mr. Breheny:

Based on the facts presented in your letter, the Division of Corporation Finance will not recommend enforcement action to the Commission if the directors and officers of Tower Semiconductor file the reports required under Exchange Act Section 16(a) by May 29, 2026. This position represents an extension of the relief granted in our letter to you dated March 13, 2026. It is based on the facts and representations made to the Division in your letter. Any different facts or conditions might require the Division to reach a different conclusion.

This no-action position is available for directors and officers of any other foreign private issuer with a class of equity securities registered under Exchange Act Section 12 that is organized and headquartered in Israel or any other foreign jurisdiction in the geographical region directly affected by the conflict described in your letter, provided they can represent that their ability to comply with the March 18, 2026 filing deadline mandated by the Holding Foreign Insiders Accountable Act has been materially affected by the direct effects of the conflict.

Sincerely,

/s/ Michael Coco
