Item 4. Description of Securities. Not Applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Michael G. Zybala is the Assistant Secretary and Counsel for The InterGroup Corporation, who is rendering an opinion in connection herewith as to the validity of The InterGroup Corporation Common Stock registered hereby. As of June 28, 2007, Mr. Zybala does not beneficially own any shares of the Common Stock of The InterGroup Corporation and is not eligible to participate in The InterGroup Corporation 2007 Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors or the 1998 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. As an officer and employee of The InterGroup Corporation, Mr. Zybala would be eligible to participate in the 1998 Stock Option Plan for Selected Key Officers, Employees and Consultants but has not been granted any options pursuant to that plan. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by any such person in connection with a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, other than an action, suit or proceeding in the name of the corporation, in which he is involved by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, provided that (i) he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. If the action or suit is by or in the name of the corporation, the corporation may indemnify any such person against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made in respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which the action or suit is brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of the liability but in light of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expense as the court deems proper. The Bylaws of The InterGroup Corporation provides for indemnification of persons to the extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. -3- In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of The InterGroup Corporation limits the personal liability of its directors for violations of their fiduciary duty. The Certificate of Incorporation eliminates each director's liability to The InterGroup corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages except (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to The InterGroup Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under the section of the Delaware law providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. The effect of this provision is to eliminate the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for actions involving a breach of their fiduciary duty of care, including any such actions involving gross negligence. This provision will not, however, limit in any way the liability of directors for violations of the Federal securities laws. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling The InterGroup Corporation pursuant to the foregoing provisions, The InterGroup Corporation has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. Reference is made to Item 9 of the undertakings with respect to indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act. The InterGroup Corporation also provides insurance from commercial carriers against some liabilities incurred by its officers and directors. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed. Not Applicable. Item 8. Exhibits.

Item 9. Undertakings. (a) The InterGroup Corporation hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any fact or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; Provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by The InterGroup Corporation pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. -5- (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The InterGroup Corporation hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of The InterGroup Corporation's annual report on Form 10-KSB pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of The InterGroup Corporation pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, The InterGroup Corporation has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by The InterGroup Corporation of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of The InterGroup Corporation in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, The InterGroup Corporation will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication for such issue.
