May 9, 2005

Dear Shareholders of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., to be held at The Parsippany Hilton, One Hilton Court, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054, on June 24, 2005, beginning at 10:00 a.m., local time.

As previously announced, on March 29, 2005, we entered into an amended and restated stock purchase agreement with Willtek Communications GmbH, a leading German supplier of testing solutions for emerging wireless services and cellular networks, and each of Willtek's two shareholders. Under the terms of the agreement, the Willtek shareholders agreed to sell to our company all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek, in exchange for 8,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock. Following completion of the acquisition, Willtek will become a wholly owned subsidiary of our company and will serve as the base of our European operations. Based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, immediately following completion of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders will own in the aggregate approximately 31.4% of our outstanding common stock on a primary basis. In connection with the acquisition, we also have agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to its principal shareholder equal to €3.5 million (approximately $4.6 million), plus accrued but unpaid interest at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000).

Based on the $2.50 closing price of a share of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on May  6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement, the dollar value of the acquisition consideration is approximately $20.0 million. This amount does not represent the value of the acquisition for financial accounting purposes. The agreement does not provide for an adjustment in the number of shares of our common stock to be issued to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition in the event of a fluctuation in the market price of our common stock prior to completion of the acquisition. Therefore, depending on the market price of our common stock on the closing date of the acquisition, the actual dollar value of the acquisition consideration may be less or more than the $20.0 million amount referenced above. Our common stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "WTT".

In connection with the acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of our board and to our senior management team, including the appointment of Cyrille Damany, Willtek's Chief Executive Officer, as the new Chief Executive Officer of our company, and the appointment of two designees of Investcorp Technology Ventures, L.P., the 80.9% shareholder of Willtek, to our seven-member board of directors at the closing of the acquisition, one of whom will be appointed Chairman of the Board. As a result of the foregoing chief executive succession, board composition changes and the Willtek shareholders' significant post-acquisition percentage ownership of our outstanding common stock, the Willtek shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of our company, and will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders.

At the annual meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote on a proposal to approve the acquisition and the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition, and all of the other transactions contemplated by the amended stock purchase agreement and the related ancillary agreements. You will also be asked to elect six nominees to our board of directors and to consider the other matters described in the accompanying proxy statement. You are not entitled to dissenter's or appraisal rights in connection with the acquisition.

After careful consideration, our board of directors unanimously has determined that the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition are advisable and in the best interest of our company and its shareholders and has unanimously approved the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition. Accordingly, our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" approval of the acquisition, the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition and all of the other transactions contemplated by the amended stock purchase agreement and the related ancillary agreements, "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named in this proxy statement to our board of directors and "FOR" each of the other proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting.

Capitalink, L.C. delivered a written opinion to our board of directors to the effect that, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in the opinion, as of March 29, 2005, the acquisition consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to our shareholders.

We urge you to consider carefully all of the information provided in this proxy statement and its attachments. In particular, you should consider carefully the "Risk Factors" beginning on page 30 of this proxy statement.

Your vote is very important, regardless of the number of shares you own. If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by mailing the enclosed proxy card in the envelope provided or by attending the annual meeting in person. To approve the proposals submitted to you, vote "FOR" the proposals by following the instructions in the proxy statement and on the enclosed proxy card. If your shares are held in "street name" (that is, held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you will receive instructions from your broker or nominee on how to vote your shares.

We greatly appreciate your continued support.

Sincerely,
KARABET "GARY" SIMONYAN
Chairman of the Board of Directors

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of this transaction or the securities to be issued pursuant to this transaction or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this proxy statement.

SUMMARY TERM SHEET

This summary term sheet highlights the material information contained in this proxy statement, but may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read carefully this entire document, including the attachments and the other documents to which we refer you for a more complete understanding of the proposed acquisition of Willtek Communications GmbH and related transactions and the other matters to be voted on at the annual meeting.

Throughout this proxy statement, "$" indicates amounts denominated in United States dollars and "€" indicates amounts denominated in euros. For your convenience, in certain places throughout this proxy statement we have converted amounts denominated in euros to amounts denominated in United States dollars using (unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires) the noon buying rate of euros for United States dollars of 1.2832 on May 6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement.

Proposal 1:
    
Approval of the Acquisition of all of the Outstanding Share Capital of
Willtek Communications GmbH by Our Company and the Issuance of 8,000,000 Shares
of Our Common Stock in Connection with the Acquisition

The Acquisition
(Page 81)

We entered into an amended and restated stock purchase agreement, dated as of March 29, 2005, with Willtek Communications GmbH, and each of its two shareholders, Investcorp Technology Ventures, L.P. and Damany Holding GmbH. Under the terms of the amended stock purchase agreement, the Willtek shareholders agreed to sell to our company all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek. As a result of the acquisition, Willtek will become a wholly owned subsidiary of our company and will serve as the base of our European operations.

Information contained on Willtek's website does not constitute part of this proxy statement.

Acquisition Consideration
(Page 81)

In exchange for all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek, the Willtek shareholders will receive an aggregate of 8,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock. We have also agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp equal to €3.5 million (approximately $4.6 million), plus accrued but unpaid interest at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). Based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, immediately following completion of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders will own in the aggregate approximately 31.4% of our outstanding common stock on a primary basis, with Investcorp owning approximately 25.4% and Damany Holding owning approximately 6.0%.

Based on the $2.50 closing price of a share of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on May 6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement, the dollar value of the acquisition consideration is approximately $20.0 million. The amended stock purchase agreement does not provide for an adjustment in the number of shares of our common stock to be issued to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition in the event of a fluctuation in the market price of our common stock prior to completion of the acquisition. Therefore, depending on the market price of our common stock on the closing date of the acquisition, the actual dollar value of the acquisition consideration may be less or more than the $20.0 million amount referenced above.

Escrow
(Page 81)

1,000,000, or 12.5%, of the shares of common stock to be issued to the Willtek shareholders as acquisition consideration will be deposited into an escrow account at the closing of the acquisition for a one-year period following the closing date of the acquisition to secure the indemnification obligations of the Willtek shareholders under the amended stock purchase agreement.

Senior Management Succession, Board Composition Changes and Significant Shareholder Influence
(Page 82)

In connection with the acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of our board and to our senior management team. At closing, Kabaret "Gary" Simonyan, our Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will resign as interim Chief Executive Officer and Cyrille Damany, Willtek's current Chief Executive Officer, will succeed Mr. Simonyan as our new Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, Mr. Damany will be the principal executive officer of our company and, as such, will have general and active managerial control of the day-to-day policies and affairs of our company and will be primarily responsible for ensuring the execution of management's business strategies for our company, subject to oversight by our board of directors. Paul Genova, our current President and Chief Financial Officer, will continue as such and report directly to Mr. Damany following completion of the acquisition.

2




Moreover, as described elsewhere in this proxy statement, two designees of Investcorp, the 80.9% shareholder of Willtek, will be appointed to our seven-member board of directors at the closing of the acquisition, one of whom will be appointed Chairman of the Board. At each annual meeting following the closing, Investcorp will have the right to designate to our company's nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our board of directors, for so long as Investcorp retains a requisite percentage beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock.

Although the acquisition is structured for accounting and financial reporting purposes as a purchase of Willtek's outstanding share capital by our company, as a result of the foregoing chief executive succession, board composition changes, and the Willtek shareholders' significant post-acquisition percentage ownership of our outstanding common stock, the Willtek shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of our company, and will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders.

Timing of Completion of the Acquisition
(Page 81)

We expect to complete the acquisition on or about July 1, 2005. However, because the acquisition is subject to certain approvals and other conditions, we cannot predict exactly when the acquisition will be completed.

Reasons for the Acquisition
(Page 60)

Our board of directors determined that the acquisition of Willtek and the combination of its operations with our company would strengthen our competitive position, based on anticipated potential benefits that include:

•  the addition of substantial incremental revenue;
•  the complementary nature of the companies' markets, products, technologies and customers;
•  the more diversified product portfolio that will result from the combination of the companies' product lines;
•  the opportunity to accelerate revenue growth as a result of being able to offer a wider range of products to a larger customer base;
•  the potential ability of the combined entity to capitalize on complementary customer relationships and distribution channels, and to diversify the combined company's customers and end users of products;
•  the potential ability of the combined company to effectively develop new, state-of-the-art products and improve existing products by leveraging technologies and intellectual property;
•  the potential ability to realize global economies of scale and operating synergies;
•  the expansion of our presence in Europe and Asia;
•  the development of an international platform for future synergistic acquisitions as and when attractive opportunities arise (although we do not have any plans, proposals, commitments or agreements to make any acquisitions at this time);
•  the acquisition of important intellectual property; and
•  the strong management team in place at Willtek, with particular capabilities in the areas of marketing, engineering and operations.

Our board also recognized a number of risks and uncertainties inherent in the acquisition, but concluded that, on balance, the potential benefits outweighed the risks associated with the transaction. To review the background and reasons for the acquisition in more detail, see pages 47 through 64.

Risks Related to the Acquisition and the Business of the Combined Company
(Page 30)

By voting to approve the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition, you will be voting to approve the combination of the businesses of our company and Willtek, which we refer to as the "combined company". In considering whether to vote your shares in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition, you should carefully consider various potential negative factors and risks, including the following:

•  Willtek has an extended history of operating losses, and the combined company will incur significant integration costs and operating expenses in the months following completion of the acquisition;
•  the dollar value of the acquisition consideration we pay to acquire Willtek may increase, because the number of shares of our common stock to be issued in the acquisition will be fixed at 8,000,000 and will not be adjusted for any increases in the market value of our common stock prior to completion of the acquisition;
•  the issuance of 8,000,000 shares our common stock in the acquisition will result in immediate and substantial dilution to our current shareholders;
•  the Willtek shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of the combined company and will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders;
•  the acquisition may not be consummated;
•  some or all of the potential benefits of the acquisition may not be realized for a prolonged period of time, if at all;
•  we may not be successful in integrating the products, technologies and operations of the two businesses;
•  the risks associated with diverting management resources from day-to-day operational matters, as well as other strategic opportunities;
•  the risk of management and employee disruption associated with the acquisition, including the risk that, despite the efforts of management, key personnel may elect not to remain employed with the combined company;
•  the risk that acquisition and related integration activities may require more capital and other resources than anticipated, resulting in a greater and more accelerated reduction of our cash reserves and other resources than originally anticipated;
•  the risk that we may incur significant restructuring charges upon completion of the acquisition or in subsequent quarters for severance or relocation costs relating to our employees; and
•  the risk that we could incur substantial liability and expenses, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, if the Germany-based company that recently made certain written allegations that some of Willtek's products may be utilizing (without license) patented intellectual property owned by such company (the "IP Allegations") were to assert a claim of infringement against Willtek or the combined company after we have completed the acquisition.

We urge you to read carefully the risks factors discussed in the section of this proxy statement entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 30.

Material Conditions to the Completion of the Acquisition
(Page 88)

The respective obligations of each party to complete the acquisition are subject to the satisfaction (or, where legally permissible, the waiver by the parties), at or prior to the closing of the acquisition, of the following conditions:

•  the approval by our shareholders of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition in accordance with New Jersey law and the rules of the American Stock Exchange, respectively;
•  receipt of all governmental and non-governmental third-party consents and approvals required to complete the acquisition; and
•  the absence of any legal prohibition on completion of the acquisition.

Our obligation to complete the acquisition is subject to the satisfaction (or, where legally permissible, our waiver), at or prior to the closing of the acquisition, of a number of additional conditions, including the following:

•  the fairness opinion of Capitalink, L.C. received by our board of directors not having been withdrawn, revoked, modified or qualified in any respect; and
•  our receipt, not later than April 30, 2005, of a definitive operating cost reduction plan from Willtek detailing a comprehensive program to permanently reduce Willtek's annual operating expenses by approximately $3,000,000, which must be acceptable to us in our sole discretion.

The Willtek shareholders' obligation to complete the acquisition is subject to the satisfaction (or, where legally permissible, the waiver by the Willtek shareholders), at or prior to the closing of the acquisition, of a number of additional conditions, including the following:

•  the accuracy of our representations and warranties and the performance by our company of its obligations as required under the amended stock purchase agreement;
•  the receipt by the Willtek shareholders of the acquisition consideration (less the 1,000,000 shares of our common stock deposited into escrow for one year following the closing of the acquisition to secure the Willtek shareholders' indemnification obligations under the amended stock purchase agreement);
•  the receipt by Willtek's shareholders of an opinion of our counsel with respect to certain agreed upon matters;

•  the receipt by the Willtek shareholders of (1) the resignation of Paul Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, as a director of our company (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of our company at the pleasure of our board of directors following completion of the acquisition), and (2) resolutions of our company's board of directors appointing two Investcorp designees as directors of our company (one of which will be appointed Chairman of the Board) and appointing Cyrille Damany, the Chief Executive Officer of Willtek, as the new Chief Executive Officer of our company.

We presently do not expect that any of the conditions listed above will be waived by any of the parties.

Termination of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement
(Page 90)

The amended stock purchase agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the completion of the acquisition by:

•  mutual written consent of our company and the Willtek shareholders;
•  by either our company or the Willtek shareholders, if:
—  the acquisition is not completed by August 15, 2005;
—  the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition are not approved by our shareholders within 60 days after the date this proxy statement is first mailed to our shareholders; or
—  there exists any final non-appealable legal prohibition on completion of the acquisition;
•  by our company, if any of the closing conditions to its obligations under the amended stock purchase agreement have become incapable of fulfillment and have not been waived by us (provided we are not then in material breach of any of our representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the amended stock purchase agreement);
•  by our company if, notwithstanding any prior disclosure, any change, event or development or series of changes, events or developments arising from or relating to the IP Allegations, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek;
•  by the Willtek shareholders, if any of the closing conditions to their obligations under the amended stock purchase agreement have become incapable of fulfillment and have not been waived by them (provided the Willtek shareholders are not then in material breach of any of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the amended stock purchase agreement); or
•  by the Willtek shareholders, if they would be required under the amended stock purchase agreement to indemnify us in an amount in excess of $5,000,000 for certain liabilities arising from or relating to the IP Allegations.

No termination fee would be payable by any party to the stock purchase agreement in the event of termination of the amended stock purchase agreement by any party under the circumstances set forth above.

Indemnification Provisions
(Page 91)

The amended stock purchase agreement contains detailed provisions regarding the indemnification obligations of the parties. Specifically, the amended stock purchase agreement provides that the Willtek shareholders must indemnify us for any losses arising from any breach of a representation or warranty made by them, or any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any of the Willtek shareholders' or Willtek's covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations contained in the amended stock purchase agreement. We must indemnify the Willtek shareholders for any losses arising from any breach of a representation or warranty made by us or any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any of our covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations contained in the amended stock purchase agreement. In addition, we and the Willtek shareholders will be required to indemnify each other for certain tax obligations. Subject to certain exceptions, the parties' general and tax indemnification obligations are subject to the following limitations and qualifications:

6




•  claims for general and tax indemnification must be asserted by the first anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition, except that indemnification claims for breaches of representations and warranties relating to certain pension matters, tax matters and environmental matters, and any tax indemnification claims must be asserted by the third anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition;
•  claims for general and tax indemnification must exceed a deductible of €25,000 (approximately $32,000) per individual claim and €150,000 (approximately $192,500) in the aggregate for all claims (in which case the party seeking indemnification may recover all amounts above and below this threshold); and
•  the aggregate liability of the Willtek shareholders for general and tax indemnification to us, and our aggregate liability for general and tax indemnification to the Willtek shareholders, is each limited to an amount equal to $6.0 million.

In addition to the general and tax indemnification obligations described above, the Willtek shareholders will be required to indemnify us for certain liabilities arising from or relating to the IP Allegations. The IP Allegations consist of written allegations received by Willtek in late September 2004 from a large, Germany-based company alleging that certain products of Willtek utilize (without license) intellectual property for mobile phone measuring instruments that are the subject of certain European patents owned by such company. These products represented approximately 8.9% of Willtek's revenues for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, and approximately 5.7% of Willtek's revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2004. Subject to certain exceptions, these IP Allegations-related indemnification obligations of the Willtek shareholders are not subject to any limitations (including those applicable to the Willtek shareholders' general and tax indemnification obligations), and we may make claims for indemnification for certain liabilities arising from or related to the IP Allegations at any time following completion of the acquisition.

The general, tax and IP Allegations-related indemnification obligations of each of the Willtek shareholders described above are joint and several, which means that we may seek indemnification for all or any part of our losses from any one or both of the Willtek shareholders, subject to the limitations and qualifications contained in the amended stock purchase agreement. If we are entitled to indemnification from the Willtek shareholders, during the one-year period following the closing date of the acquisition, we must first proceed against the 1,000,000 shares of our common stock held in escrow before we can seek monetary damages directly from the Willtek shareholders. Based on the $2.50 closing price of a share of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange on May 6, 2005, the aggregate value of the shares of our common stock to be held in escrow would be approximately $2.5 million.

Limitation on Willtek's Shareholders' and Willtek's Ability to Solicit Other Acquisition Proposals
(Page 87)

The amended stock purchase agreement prohibits the Willtek shareholders and Willtek from directly or indirectly soliciting, initiating, encouraging or otherwise facilitating the receipt or submission of an alternative acquisition proposal or entering into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any alternative acquisition proposal. The Willtek shareholders and Willtek have also agreed to promptly notify us orally and within 24 hours in writing of the receipt of any alternative acquisition proposal.

Interests of Our Executive Officers and Directors in the Acquisition
(Page 77)

When considering the recommendation of our board of directors with respect to the acquisition, you should be aware that Mr. Simonyan, our Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Genova, our President and Chief Operating Officer, have pecuniary interests in the acquisition that are materially different from, or that are in addition to, the interests of our shareholders. Accordingly, Messrs, Simonyon and Genova may have potential conflicts of interest and may not be deemed to be disinterested with respect to their approval and recommendation of the acquisition in their capacity as directors of our company. These interests are as follows:

7




•  Genova Severance Agreement.    On March 29, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Genova which provides that if Mr. Genova's employment is terminated by our company without "cause," or if Mr. Genova terminates his employment for "good reason," either before or after the acquisition, then Mr. Genova would be entitled to receive, (1) at the sole discretion of our company, either a lump-sum cash payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect (which, based on Mr. Genova's current annual base compensation, would be approximately $135,000), payable within 30 days after termination, or continuation of his base compensation then in effect for a period of nine months after termination, and (2) the continuation of all benefits to which he is currently entitled for a period of nine months following his termination.
•  Incentive Stock Options.    On March 22, 2005, our board of directors granted Mr. Simonyan incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $2.57 per share, representing the closing price of our common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on the date of grant. The options will vest over a period of three years from the date of grant, with one third vesting on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

As a result of the substantial changes that will be made to the composition of our board of directors and to our senior management team upon completion of the acquisition, our compensation committee took the opportunity to evaluate senior executive employment, severance and compensation arrangements and determined that the above arrangements were appropriate in light of Messrs. Simonyan's and Genova's relative contributions to our company. All such arrangements presenting potential conflicts of interest for Messrs. Simonyan and Genova were thoroughly reviewed by our compensation committee, which approved such arrangements individually, and were thoroughly reviewed by each of our independent directors, who approved such arrangements as part of their overall approval of the acquisition.

Except as set forth above, none of our directors or executive officers or any of their respective associates has any direct or indirect interest in the acquisition.

No Dissenter's or Appraisal Rights
(Page 75)

Our shareholders are not entitled to dissenter's or appraisal rights under New Jersey law in connection with the acquisition because our common stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange, a national securities exchange.

Recommendation of Our Board of Directors
(Page 64)

After careful consideration, our board of directors unanimously has determined that the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition are advisable and in the best interest of our company and its shareholders and has unanimously approved the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition. Accordingly, our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" approval of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

None of our directors is affiliated with or has any interest in Willtek or any of the Willtek shareholders.

Opinion of Capitalink, L.C.
(Page 64)

Capitalink, L.C. delivered a written opinion to our board of directors to the effect that, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in the opinion, as of March 29, 2005, the acquisition consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to our shareholders. The full text of Capitalink's opinion is attached to this proxy statement

8




as Annex B. We encourage you to read the text of the opinion in its entirety for a description of the procedures followed, assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken. Capitalink's opinion is addressed to our board of directors, and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder as to how such shareholder should vote or act on any matter relating to the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

Capitalink received a fee of $42,500 in cash in connection with the preparation and issuance of its opinion dated March 29, 2005, and previously received a fee of $85,000 in cash in connection with the preparation and issuance of an opinion dated September 27, 2004, which was delivered to our board of directors in connection with the execution of the original stock purchase agreement in October 2004. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse Capitalink for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and to indemnify Capitalink against certain liabilities. Capitalink was not engaged by our company to provide any financial advisory or other services other than the preparation and issuance of the foregoing opinions, and Capitalink is not entitled to any fee dependent on the completion of the acquisition.

Effect of a Negative Vote on the Approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance of Our Common Stock in the Acquisition

If our shareholders do not approve the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition, we will abandon our efforts to acquire Willtek.

Amended and Restated Loan Agreement
(Page 96)

Investcorp presently owns 80.9% of Willtek's outstanding share capital, and representatives of Investcorp presently occupy three of five seats on Willtek's advisory board.

Under the terms of a loan agreement, dated March 12, 2003, Investcorp provided an unsecured loan to Willtek in the principal amount of €3.5 million. The loan bears interest at the rate of 8% per year and matures on March 1, 2008. The loan agreement permits Investcorp to terminate the agreement any time after March 1, 2008, or upon completion of a change-in-control transaction, such as the acquisition of Willtek by our company, upon which Willtek is required to pay all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the agreement.

In connection with the amended stock purchase agreement, Willtek entered into an amended and restated loan agreement dated March 29, 2005 with Investcorp, pursuant to which Investcorp will waive its right to terminate the loan agreement upon completion of the acquisition and to immediately collect the €3.5 million outstanding principal amount (approximately $4.6 million), together with all interest accrued and then unpaid under the existing loan agreement at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). Willtek entered into the amended loan agreement primarily to allow the acquisition of Willtek by our company to be completed without triggering Investcorp's termination right under the original loan agreement, to reduce the rate at which interest will accrue on the loan after the acquisition, and to make other provisions relating to our company, as the parent company of Willtek following the acquisition. Our company signed the amended loan agreement to guaranty payment of any amounts payable by Willtek to Investcorp under the amended loan agreement.

The amended loan agreement will not become effective until the closing date of the acquisition, at which time the existing loan agreement dated March 12, 2003 will be terminated. Under the terms of the amended loan agreement, following the acquisition, the loan will bear interest at the rate of 4% per year accruing at the end of each calendar quarter and will be due and payable in one lump-sum on December 31, 2006. The amended loan agreement will not be secured by any assets of Willtek or our company. Investcorp may terminate the amended loan agreement under certain circumstances set forth in the new loan agreement.

Our company believes that the terms of the amended loan agreement with Investcorp are no less favorable than loan terms available from an independent third party.

A copy of the amended and restated loan agreement is attached to this proxy statement as Annex D.

Shareholders' Agreement
(Page 94)

As a condition to the completion of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders and our company will enter into a shareholders' agreement, in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C, at the closing of the acquisition to provide for certain rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the shares of our common stock to be issued to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition, and certain related corporate matters. The principal terms of the shareholders' agreement are summarized below.

•  Board Representation.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that effective at the closing of the acquisition, (1) our board of directors will consist of seven members, (2) Mr. Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, will resign as a director of our company (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as President and Chief Financial Officer of our company at the pleasure of our board of directors following completion of the acquisition), (3) the remaining five board members of our company will appoint two Investcorp designees to serve as directors of our company, (4) Savio W. Tung, one of Investcorp's director designees, will be appointed Chairman of the Board, and (5) Mr. Simonyan, our current Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will be appointed non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board and will resign as interim Chief Executive Officer.
•  Chief Executive Officer Appointment.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that effective at the closing of the acquisition, our board of directors will appoint Cyrille Damany, Willtek's Chief Executive Officer, to serve as our new Chief Executive Officer.
•  Rights to Designate Director Candidates for Nomination.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that for so long as Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of our common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds, at each annual or special meeting of our shareholders at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to our nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our board of directors. These rights will expire at such time as Investcorp owns less than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to a 20-day grace period.
•  Voting Obligations of the Willtek Shareholders.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that until the earlier of the second anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition or the date on which Investcorp no longer has the right to designate director candidates for nomination under the shareholders' agreement, in any meeting of our shareholders at which directors are to be elected, the Willtek shareholders will (1) cause their shares of our common stock to be present (in person or by proxy) for purposes of establishing a quorum and (2) affirmatively vote their shares for the election of Investcorp's director nominees and for the election of each of the other director candidates nominated by our board of directors, subject to certain exceptions.
•  Restrictions on Transfer.    In addition to restrictions on transfer imposed under U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws, the shareholders' agreement will provide for the following restrictions on the transfer of the shares of our common stock to be received by the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition: (1) Investcorp may not transfer any shares of our common stock for a period of one year following the closing date of the acquisition and Damany Holding may not transfer any shares of our common stock for a period of six months following the closing date of the acquisition, in each case except for transfers to certain permitted transferees; and (2) without the prior written approval of a majority of the members of our board of directors (excluding any Investcorp director nominee), they may not transfer any shares of our common stock to certain specified direct competitors of our company without first offering us the opportunity to purchase such shares on the same terms and conditions.

10




•  Registration Rights.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that after a period of one year following the closing date of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders will have the right to demand that our company file up to two registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering their shares of our common stock acquired in the acquisition, and will also have incidental or "piggyback" registration rights covering such shares effective after such one-year period, subject, in the latter case, to certain limitations related to underwriter "cut-backs".

Indemnification Escrow Agreement
(Page 97)

As a condition to completion of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders, our company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent, will enter into an indemnification escrow agreement at the closing of the acquisition in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex E. The principal terms of the indemnification escrow agreement are summarized below.

Deposit of Indemnification Shares.    The indemnification escrow agreement will provide that at the closing of the acquisition, we will deposit 1,000,000, or 12.5%, of the shares of our common stock to be issued as acquisition consideration with the escrow agent to hold in escrow as collateral for the indemnification obligations of the Willtek shareholders under the stock purchase agreement. With respect to monetary remedies for valid claims, during the one-year period following the closing date of the acquisition, our company must first seek recourse against the shares held in escrow and will be entitled to pursue other monetary remedies only to the extent that the escrowed shares are not sufficient to compensate us for all of our losses. At the end of the one-year escrow period, any of the escrowed shares that have not been used to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by our company will be delivered to the Willtek shareholders.

Uncontested and Contested Claims.    The indemnification escrow agreement will provide certain procedures for release of escrowed shares in the event of both contested and uncontested claims. The Willtek shareholders will be permitted to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by our company by making a cash payment to us in the amount of such claims. If the escrow agent does not receive written confirmation from us that the owed losses have been paid in full in cash before a certain time, then the escrow agent will immediately release from escrow and transfer to us for cancellation that number of escrowed shares having a value equal to the amount of our losses.

Value of Indemnification Shares.    For purposes of calculating the number of escrowed shares deliverable to us with respect to a valid claim for indemnification, the value of each share will be equal to the numerical average of the closing price of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange for the ten trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the date that notification of a claim for indemnification is made under the amended stock purchase agreement.

Accounting and Tax Treatment of the Acquisition
(Page 79)

•  We intend to account for the acquisition using the "purchase" method of accounting.
•  The acquisition is not a taxable event for our company or its shareholders.

Regulatory Filings
(Page 80)

In connection with the acquisition:

•  we have made the required filings with the German Federal Cartel Office under applicable German antitrust laws and received clearance from such office on March 16, 2005;
•  we have made and will continue to make the required filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, relating to the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition, including the filing of this proxy statement with the SEC pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act; and

11




•  we will file an additional listing application with the American Stock Exchange for the purpose of listing the shares of our common stock to be issued to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition.

Other Important Terms of Acquisition

To learn more about the other important terms of the acquisition, you should read carefully the sections of this proxy statement titled "The Acquisition" beginning on page 47, "The Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement" beginning on page 81 and "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition" beginning on page 93, and each of the annexes to this proxy statement.

Proposal 2:

Election of Directors

(Page 116)

At the annual meeting, Paul Genova, Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, Henry L. Bachman, John Wilchek, Michael Manza and Andrew Scelba will stand for reelection as members of our board of directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

Although Mr. Genova has been nominated for election to our board of directors at the annual meeting, if the acquisition of Willtek is completed (which we presently anticipate will occur on or about July 1, 2005, assuming all of the other conditions to completion of the acquisition have been satisfied or waived), Mr. Genova (if reelected at the annual meeting) will resign from WTT's board of directors at the closing of the acquisition, and two designees of Investcorp will be appointed to the board at that time. Mr. Genova will, however, continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of our company at the pleasure of our board of directors following completion of the acquisition.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named above to our board of directors.

Proposal 3:

Adjournment of the Annual Meeting, If Necessary, to
Solicit Additional Proxies In Favor of the Acquisition and the
Issuance of Our Common Stock in the Acquisition

(Page 132)

Although it is not expected, the annual meeting may be adjourned in the absence of a quorum or for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" adjournment of the annual meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

12




QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ACQUISITION AND
THE OTHER MATTERS TO BE VOTED ON AT THE 2005 ANNUAL MEETING

Q:  When and where will the annual meeting be held? (See page 43)
A:  The annual meeting will be held at The Parsippany Hilton, One Hilton Court, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054, beginning at 10:00 a.m., local time, on June 24, 2005.
Q:  Who is making this proxy solicitation? (See page 43)
A:  We are furnishing this proxy statement to the holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, as part of the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at the annual meeting and any adjournments or postponements of the annual meeting.
Q:  What am I being asked to vote on at the annual meeting? (See page 43)
A:  At the annual meeting, you will be asked to:
•  consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the acquisition of all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek by our company, and all of the other transactions contemplated by the amended and restated stock purchase agreement, dated as of March 29, 2005, and the related ancillary agreements, including the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders as consideration for all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek;
•  elect each of Paul Genova, Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, Henry L. Bachman, John Wilchek, Michael Manza and Andrew Scelba as a member of our board of directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified;
•  consider and vote upon a proposal to adjourn the annual meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition; and
•  transact such other business as may properly come before the annual meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting.
Q:  What shares can be voted at the annual meeting? (See page 43)
A:  At the annual meeting, you may vote all shares of our common stock that you own as of the close of business on May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting. You may cast one vote per share of common stock that you owned as of the record date. These shares include shares that are: (1) held directly in your name as the holder of record and (2) held for you as the beneficial owner through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee.
Q:  What is the difference between holding shares as a holder of record and as a beneficial owner?
A:  Most of our shareholders hold their shares through a stock brokerage account, bank or other nominee, rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are some distinctions between shares held as a holder of record and those beneficially owned.

Holders of Record

If your shares of our common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, you are considered, with respect to those shares, the holder of record, and we have sent these proxy materials directly to you. As the holder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the persons named on the enclosed proxy card or to vote in person at the annual meeting. We have enclosed a proxy card with this proxy statement for you to use.

13




Beneficial Owners

If your shares of our common stock are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name", and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your broker or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the holder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or nominee how to vote and are also invited to attend the annual meeting. However, since you are not the holder of record, you may not vote these shares in person at the annual meeting. Your broker or nominee has enclosed a voting instruction card with this proxy statement for you to use in directing the broker or nominee how to vote your shares.

Q:  How can I vote my shares in person at the annual meeting?
A:  Shares of our common stock held directly in your name as the holder of record as of the record date may be voted in person by you at the annual meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the enclosed proxy card or proof of identification. Even if you plan to attend the annual meeting, we recommend that you vote your shares in advance as described below so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the annual meeting. Shares of our common stock held in street name may be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy from the holder of record giving you the right to vote the shares.
Q:  How can I vote my shares without attending the annual meeting?
A:  Whether you hold shares directly as the holder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct your vote without attending the annual meeting by completing and mailing your proxy card or voting instruction card in the enclosed postage-prepaid return envelope as soon as possible.
Q.  What is the quorum requirement with respect to the annual meeting? (See page 43)
A:  The presence, in person or by properly executed proxy, at the annual meeting of the holders of shares entitled to cast a majority of the votes at the annual meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum in order to transact business at the annual meeting.
Q:  Why is our board of directors soliciting shareholder approval of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition? (See page 44)
A:  Our company is incorporated under New Jersey law. Under New Jersey law, approval of the acquisition by our shareholders is required before we can complete the acquisition, because the acquisition will result in an increase by more than 40% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the acquisition.

In addition to and aside from shareholder voting rights provided for under New Jersey law, under the listing rules of the American Stock Exchange, where our common stock is listed for trading, the approval by our shareholders of the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition is required, because the issuance will result in an increase by more than 20% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance.

Approval of the acquisition under New Jersey law and approval of the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition under the listing rules of the American Stock Exchange each requires the same threshold of affirmative shareholder votes — the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. Therefore, our board of directors is soliciting shareholder approval of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition at the annual meeting to satisfy applicable shareholder voting requirements under New Jersey law and the rules of the American Stock Exchange, respectively.

14




Q:  What is the voting requirement to elect directors at the annual meeting?
A:  The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting is required to elect each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director of our company. By "plurality" we mean that the nominees who receive the highest number of votes cast "FOR" will be elected as directors.
Q:  Under what circumstances will the annual meeting be adjourned? (See page 45)
A:  Although it is not expected, the annual meeting may be adjourned in the absence of a quorum or for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition. Any adjournment of the annual meeting may be made without notice, other than by an announcement made at the annual meeting, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting, whether or not a quorum exists.
Q:  How will votes be counted at the annual meeting? (See page 44)
A:  In the election of directors, you may vote "FOR" all of the nominees or your vote may be "WITHHELD" with respect to one or more of the nominees. You may vote "FOR," "AGAINST" or "ABSTAIN" for each of the other proposals. For purposes of determining the number of votes cast with respect to a matter, only those votes cast "FOR" or "AGAINST" a proposal are counted. "Broker non-votes," if any are submitted by brokers or nominees in connection with the annual meeting, will not be counted as votes "FOR" or "AGAINST" for purposes of determining the number of votes cast, but will be treated as present for quorum purposes. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by brokers or nominees as to which voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote those shares and the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power under the applicable securities exchange rules. Shares as to which a shareholder or broker withholds from voting or as to which a shareholder or broker abstains will be treated as shares that are present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions, however, will not be counted "FOR" or "AGAINST" a proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of any proposal presented at the annual meeting.

All shares of our common stock represented by properly executed proxies received before or at the annual meeting will, unless the proxies are revoked, be voted in accordance with the instructions on those proxies. If you sign and send in your proxy card and do not indicate how you want to vote, your proxy will be counted as a vote "FOR" the acquisition of Willtek and the issuance of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition, and "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director.

Q:  If my shares of common stock are held in street name by a broker or other nominee, will the broker or other nominee vote my shares? (See page 45)
A:  Under American Stock Exchange rules, brokers and nominees are not permitted to exercise their voting discretion on the proposals to approve the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition and to adjourn the annual meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition. A broker or other nominee will vote your shares of our common stock at the annual meeting on those proposals only if you give the broker or other nominee instructions on how to vote your shares. Without instructions, your shares will not be voted on those proposals. Brokers and nominees may, however, exercise voting discretion in the election of directors. If your shares are held by a broker or other nominee, you should follow the directions your broker or other nominee provides to you to instruct your broker or other nominee how to vote your shares.

15




Q:  Can I change my vote after I have voted by proxy? (See page 45)
A:  Yes. You can change your vote at any time before your proxy is voted at the annual meeting.

If you are a holder of record of our common stock, you can do this in three ways:

•  You may send in a later-dated, signed proxy card to our corporate secretary so that it arrives before the annual meeting;
•  You can send a written notice to our corporate secretary stating that you would like to revoke your proxy; or
•  You may attend the annual meeting and vote the shares subject to the proxy by written ballot at the annual meeting. Your attendance at the annual meeting alone will not revoke your proxy — you must also vote by written ballot at the annual meeting.

You should send your revocation or new proxy card to our corporate secretary at Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., 25 Eastmans Road, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054.

If you are a beneficial owner of our common stock and you instructed a broker or other nominee to vote your shares, you must follow your broker's directions for changing those instructions.

Q:  What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction card?
A:  It means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. Please provide voting instructions for each proxy and voting instruction card your receive.
Q:  Where can I find the voting results of the annual meeting? (See page 46)
A:  We will announce preliminary voting results at the annual meeting and publish the definitive voting results in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005. If the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition are approved by the requisite shareholder vote and all of the other conditions to completion of the acquisition are satisfied or, where legally permissible, waived, then upon completion of the acquisition we will issue a press release and file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission announcing the completion of the acquisition. If the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition are not approved by the requisite shareholder vote, we will promptly issue a press release stating that we have abandoned our efforts to acquire Willtek.
Q:  Whom should I contact if I have additional questions?
A:  For more information, you should contact:

SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
OF WILLTEK COMMUNICATIONS GmbH

The following tables provide selected historical consolidated financial data of Willtek Communications GmbH as of and for each of its fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and as of December 31, 2004 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. The consolidated balance sheet data and the consolidated statement of operations data presented below as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, and for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2004, have been derived from the consolidated financial statements of Willtek prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which have been audited by Ernst & Young AG Wirtschaftsprufungsgesellschaft, independent registered public accounting firm, except for the financial statements as of March 31, 2003 and for the eleven months then ended of Willtek Communications Incorporated, a consolidated subsidiary, which were audited by other independent auditors. The consolidated balance sheet data and the consolidated statement of operations data presented below as of and for the year ended March 31, 2002, and as of December 31, 2004 and for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, have been derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Willtek prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, Willtek believes that this information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary to present fairly its consolidated financial position and results of operations for those periods.

WIRELESS TELECOM GROUP, INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give effect to our proposed acquisition of Willtek. The acquisition will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, "Business Combinations" (SFAS 141). Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price, calculated as described in Note 1 to these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of the Willtek business acquired, based on their fair values as of the completion of the acquisition. Independent valuation specialists are currently conducting an independent valuation in order to assist our management in determining the fair values of a significant portion of these assets. The preliminary work performed by the independent valuation specialists has been considered in management's estimates of the fair values reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. A final determination of these fair values, which cannot be made prior to the completion of the acquisition, will include management's consideration of a final valuation prepared by the independent valuation specialists. This final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets of the Willtek business that exist as of the date of completion of the acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 gives effect to the proposed acquisition as if it occurred on December 31, 2004. Our consolidated balance sheet information was derived from our audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 included elsewhere in this proxy statement. Willtek's balance sheet information was derived from its unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 included elsewhere in this proxy statement. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 is presented as if the proposed acquisition was consummated on January 1, 2004 and, due to the different fiscal period ends for our company and Willtek, combines our historical results for the year ended December 31, 2004, which were derived from our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 included elsewhere in this proxy statement, and Willtek's historical results for the 12 months ended December 31, 2004, which were derived from its unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 and from its unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements has been prepared by our management for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been realized had our company and Willtek been a combined company during the specified period. The pro forma adjustments are based on the information available at the time of the preparation of this proxy statement. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, our historical consolidated financial statements for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2004; Willtek's historical consolidated financial statements for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004; and Willtek's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, all of which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement.

Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments for liabilities resulting from integration planning, as our management is in the process of making these assessments and estimates of these costs are not currently known. However, liabilities ultimately may be recorded for severance or relocation costs related to employees of Willtek, costs of vacating certain leased facilities of Willtek and/or other costs associated with exiting activities of Willtek that would affect amounts in the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, we may incur significant restructuring charges upon completion of the acquisition or in subsequent quarters for severance or relocation costs related to our employees.

21




There are no intercompany balances or transactions between our company and Willtek. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the historical amounts of Willtek to our company's presentation.

These unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on preliminary estimates of fair values. They do not include liabilities resulting from integration planning which are not presently estimable as discussed above. Amounts preliminarily allocated to intangible assets with definite lives may increase significantly, which could result in a material increase in amortization of intangible assets. Therefore, the actual amounts recorded as of the completion of the acquisition may differ materially from the information presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition to the receipt of the final valuation, the impact of ongoing integration activities, the timing of completion of the acquisition and other changes in net tangible and intangible assets of Willtek that occur prior to completion of the acquisition could cause material differences in the information presented.

For purposes of the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, amounts denominated in euros in Willtek's financial statements have been converted into United States dollars using the December 31, 2004 exchange rate for purposes of the balance sheet and the average exchange rates applicable to the year ended December 31, 2004 for purposes of the statement of operations. The table below shows the average U.S. dollar/ euro exchange rate for the periods shown, based on the interbank market exchange rate expressed in U.S. dollars per one euro.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of Presentation

On March 29, 2005, we entered into an amended and restated stock purchase agreement pursuant to which we agreed to acquire all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek. The transaction is expected to close in the second or third calendar quarter of 2005; however, because the acquisition is subject to certain approvals and other conditions, we cannot predict exactly when the acquisition will be completed. Willtek is based in Ismaning, Germany.

Pursuant to the amended stock purchase agreement, we agreed to issue an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for 100% of Willtek's share capital.

The estimated value of the aggregate purchase price to acquire Willtek is calculated to be $20,640,000, using a per share price of $2.58 for our common stock, which is the average of the closing market prices of our common stock for a period beginning three days prior to and ending three days after March 29, 2005, the date the proposed amended transaction was publicly announced. Estimated direct transaction expenses of $2.0 million have been included as a part of the total purchase cost.

The cost to acquire Willtek will be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their respective fair values, with the excess purchase price being allocated to goodwill. The fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities will be based upon an independent valuation.

The preliminary estimated total purchase cost of Willtek is as follows (in thousands):


Value of securities issued $ 20,640  
Estimated transaction costs and expenses   2,000  
  $ 22,640  

Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price as shown in the table above is allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets of Willtek based on their estimated fair values as of the date of the completion of the acquisition. Based on information currently available, and subject to potentially material changes upon receipt of a valuation after completion of the acquisition and other factors as described in the introduction to these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, the preliminary estimated purchase price is allocated as follows (in thousands):


  Amount Useful Life in
Years
Annual
Amortization
Current assets acquired $ 8,107        
Other tangible assets acquired   3,176        
Current liabilities assumed   (5,579

Intangible assets acquired:              
Customer relationships   6,100   5 $ 1,220

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

Of the total estimated purchase price, a preliminary estimated amount of approximately $16.7 million has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and intangible assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," goodwill resulting from business combinations completed subsequent to June 30, 2001 will not be amortized but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually (more frequently if certain indicators are present). In the event that our management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, we will incur an accounting charge for the amount of impairment during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made.

2.  Pro Forma Adjustments

Pro forma adjustments are necessary to reflect the estimated purchase price, to adjust amounts related to the net tangible and intangible assets of Willtek to a preliminary estimate of their fair values and to reflect the amortization expense related to the estimated amortizable intangible assets.

There are no intercompany balances or transactions between our company and Willtek. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the historical amounts of Willtek to our company's presentation.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments for liabilities resulting from integration planning, as our management is in the process of making these assessments, and estimates of these costs are not currently known. However, liabilities ultimately may be recorded for severance or relocation costs related to the employees of Willtek, costs of vacating certain leased facilities of Willtek, or other costs associated with exiting activities of Willtek that would affect amounts in the pro forma financial statements. In addition, we may incur significant restructuring charges upon completion of the acquisition or in subsequent quarters for severance or relocation costs related to our employees and other costs associated with exiting activities of our company. When recorded, these costs will be charged to operations.

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are as follows:

(a)  Adjustment to record purchase price of 8,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at $2.58;
(b)  Adjustment to eliminate the historical shareholders' equity of Willtek;
(c)  Adjustment to record liability for the estimated transaction costs;
(d)  Adjustment to reflect preliminary estimated value of customer relationships, developed technology and trademarks and tradenames acquired less elimination of Willtek's historical intangibles, and to reflect the preliminary estimate of the fair value of goodwill;
(e)  Adjustment to reflect preliminary estimated amortization of acquired intangible assets with finite lives (excluding trade name, trademarks and goodwill) less Willtek's historical amortization expense of $81;
(f)  Adjustment to record estimated fair value of unfavorable lease obligation applicable to Willtek's Ismaning, Germany facility. The lease terminates on December 31, 2008;
(g)  Adjustment to reflect preliminary estimated amortization of liability for unfavorable Willtek lease obligation included in preliminary purchase price allocation;
(h)  Pro forma basic and diluted net earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding and the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock for the acquisition of Willtek;

26




(i)  Adjustment to record the estimated funded status of Willtek's defined benefit plan;
(j)  Adjustment to record net deferred tax liability applicable to purchase accounting adjustments, including recognition of acquired intangible assets, at 37.3% (Willtek's estimated combined statutory tax rate);
(k)  Adjustment to record net deferred tax benefit applicable to amortization of acquired intangible assets and unfavorable lease obligation, at 37.3% (Willtek's estimated combined statutory tax rate);

COMPARATIVE HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA PER SHARE DATA

The following table provides certain historical per share data and consolidated per share data on an unaudited pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition using the purchase method of accounting. The pro forma consolidated per share data was derived from financial information of our company and Willtek appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement. The information in the table below should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of our company and Willtek and the related notes. The pro forma data is not necessarily indicative of amounts which would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented and should not be construed as representative of future operations.

On May 6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement, the reported high and low sales prices per share of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange were $2.57 and $2.50, respectively.

As of May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, we had 654 holders of record of our common stock.

DIVIDEND POLICY

In May 2001, we reinstated a quarterly cash dividend policy. The table below details quarterly cash dividends declared for our 2003 and 2004 fiscal years and for the first two fiscal quarters of 2005.


  Quarterly Cash Dividends Per Share
Fiscal Year 1st 2nd 3rd 4th
2005 $ .03   $ .03          
2004 $ .03   $ .03   $ .03   $ .03  
2003 $ .02   $ .02   $ .02   $ .03  

Under the terms of the amended stock purchase agreement, prior to completion of the acquisition, we are restricted from paying any cash or non-cash dividends, other than regular quarterly cash dividends to our shareholders in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. While it is our present intention to maintain our quarterly cash dividend policy, both prior to and after completion of the acquisition, the declaration of dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be determined by our board after consideration of various factors, including, without limitation, our liquidity and financial condition.

RISK FACTORS

By voting to approve the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition, you will be voting to approve the combination of the businesses of our company and Willtek, which we refer to below as the "combined company". Such a combination involves a high degree of risk and consequently, in addition to all of the other information contained in this proxy statement and its attachments, you should consider carefully the following risk factors before determining how to vote on the proposal to approve the acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

Risks Related to the Acquisition

The 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to be issued in the acquisition will not be subject to reduction in the event of any increase in the market price of our common stock prior to completion of the acquisition, which could result in an effective increase in the dollar value of the acquisition consideration we pay to acquire Willtek.

The 8,000,000 shares of common stock that we will issue to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition will not be subject to reduction in the event of any increase in the market price of our common stock that may occur prior to completion of the acquisition. On March 28, 2005, the trading day immediately prior to the date we publicly announced the execution of the amended stock purchase agreement, the closing price of our common stock was $2.54 per share, as reported on the American Stock Exchange. Accordingly, the aggregate value of the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock we will issue to the Willtek shareholders, as measured by the closing price of our common stock on March 28, 2005, was approximately $20.3 million. On May 6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement, the closing price of our common stock was $2.50 per share, as reported on the American Stock Exchange. Accordingly, the aggregate value of the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock we will issue to the Willtek shareholders, as measured by the closing price of our common stock on May 6, 2005, was approximately $20.0 million. If the market price of our common stock on the closing date of the acquisition is greater than $2.50 per share, the aggregate dollar value of the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock we have agreed to issue to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition would correspondingly increase. At the time of the annual meeting, our shareholders will not know the actual aggregate dollar value of the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock we will issue to the Willtek shareholders in exchange for the outstanding share capital of Willtek.

The issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition will result in immediate and substantial dilution to our current shareholders.

The issuance of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition will significantly dilute the voting power and ownership percentage of our current shareholders. Based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding as of May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to be issued in the acquisition would constitute approximately 31.4% of the outstanding shares of our common stock immediately following completion of the acquisition, on a primary basis, with Investcorp owning approximately 25.4% and Damany Holding owning approximately 6.0%. Based on the same number of outstanding shares of our common stock as of May 5, 2005, our current shareholders in the aggregate would hold approximately 68.6% of the outstanding shares of our common stock immediately following completion of the acquisition, on a primary basis.

In connection with the acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of our board of directors and to our senior management team, which will enable the Willtek shareholders to exert significant influence over the future management and business affairs of the combined company.

In connection with the acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of our board and to our senior management team. At closing, Mr. Simonyan, our Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will resign as interim Chief Executive Officer and Cyrille Damany, Willtek's current Chief Executive Officer, will succeed Mr. Simonyan as our new Chief Executive

30




Officer. Accordingly, Mr. Damany will be the principal executive officer of our company and, as such, will have general and active managerial control of the day-to-day policies and affairs of our company and will be primarily responsible for ensuring the execution of management's business strategies for the combined company, subject to oversight by our board of directors. Moreover, as described elsewhere in this proxy statement, two designees of Investcorp, the 80.9% shareholder of Willtek, will be appointed to our seven-member board of directors at the closing of the acquisition, one of whom will be appointed Chairman of the Board. At each annual meeting following the closing, Investcorp will have the right to designate to our company's nominating committee up to two candidates for election to our board of directors, for so long as Investcorp retains a requisite percentage beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, although the acquisition is structured for accounting and financial reporting purposes as a purchase of Willtek's outstanding share capital by our company, as a result of the foregoing chief executive succession and board composition changes, the Willtek shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of the combined company.

The post-acquisition concentration of ownership of our outstanding common stock with the Willtek shareholders, as well as certain provisions of the shareholders' agreement we will enter into with the Willtek shareholders at the closing of the acquisition, will enable the Willtek shareholders to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders.

Immediately following completion of the acquisition, the Willtek shareholders, together, will beneficially own approximately 31.4% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the shareholders' agreement we will enter into with the Willtek shareholders at the closing of the acquisition, designees of Investcorp will occupy two of seven seats on our board of directors, including the position of Chairman of the Board. Additionally, at each annual meeting, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to our nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our seven-member board of directors, for so long as Investcorp's beneficial ownership levels exceed certain percentage thresholds. In addition, until the earlier of the second anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition or the date on which Investcorp no longer has the right to designate director candidates for nomination under the terms of the shareholders' agreement, in any election of directors, the Willtek shareholders will be required to vote their shares for the election of Investcorp's director nominees and for the election of each of the other director candidates nominated by our board, subject to certain exceptions.

The post-acquisition concentration of ownership of our outstanding common stock with the Willtek shareholders, combined with Investcorp's right to designate director candidates for nomination and the Willtek shareholders' voting obligations in the election of directors under the terms of the shareholders' agreement, will enable the Willtek shareholders to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders, including the election and removal of directors and mergers or other business combination transactions, and could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change-in-control of the combined company or otherwise discourage a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of the combined company. This, in turn, could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock or prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over the market price for their shares of common stock.

As a result of the amended loan agreement, under which we have agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp following completion of the acquisition, Investcorp's board nominees may face potential conflicts of interest in connection with certain future transactions the combined company may wish to pursue.

Under the terms of the amended loan agreement, dated March 29, 2005, between Investcorp and Willtek, effective at the closing of the acquisition, we agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp equal to €3.5 million (approximately $4.6 million), plus accrued but unpaid interest at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). The parties entered into

31




the amended loan agreement primarily to allow the acquisition of Willtek by our company to be completed without triggering Investcorp's termination right under an existing loan agreement between Investcorp and Willtek dated March 12, 2003, to reduce the rate at which interest will accrue on the loan after the acquisition from 8% to 4% per year, and to make other provisions relating to our company, as the parent company of Willtek following the acquisition.

As a result of our agreement to guaranty payment of any amounts payable by Willtek to Investcorp under the amended loan agreement, after the acquisition is completed, the combined company will have a significant business relationship with Investcorp, which will also be the largest single shareholder of the combined company immediately following the acquisition. Accordingly, during the term of the new loan agreement, Investcorp's board nominees may face potential conflicts of interest in connection with certain transactions the combined company may consider in the future, for instance, a proposed financing transaction involving terms that would effectively subordinate Investcorp's rights under the terms of the new loan agreement.

Integration of the businesses of our company and Willtek may be difficult and will consume significant financial and managerial resources, which could have an adverse effect on the combined company's results of operations.

Following the acquisition, the combined company will attempt to integrate our company's and Willtek's respective test and measurement solutions for cellular communication systems and networks and will begin to share common systems, procedures and controls. We will need to overcome significant challenges in order to realize the expected benefits and synergies from the acquisition. These challenges include the timely, efficient and successful execution of a number of post-transaction activities, including:

•  integrating the operations of Willtek with our operations;
•  implementing the definitive cost reduction plan to permanently reduce Willtek's annual operating expenses contemplated by the amended stock purchase agreement;
•  retaining and assimilating key personnel of Willtek;
•  integrating product offerings;
•  coordinating sales and marketing efforts to effectively communicate the capabilities of the combined company;
•  demonstrating to the customers of both companies that the combination will not result in adverse changes in product quality or customer service;
•  coordinating and rationalizing research and development activities of the combined company to achieve the timely introduction of new products with reduced costs;
•  preserving important relationships of both companies and resolving potential conflicts that may arise; and
•  creating and implementing uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems.

The execution of these post-transaction activities will involve significant risks and may not be successful. Risks associated with these activities include:

•  the potential disruption of our ongoing business operations and distraction of our management from the day-to-day operational matters, as well as other strategic opportunities;
•  a potential strain on our financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures;
•  unanticipated expenses and potential delays related to integration of the operations, technology and other resources of Willtek;
•  the failure of the combined company to effectively reduce Willtek's annual operating expenses in accordance with the definitive cost reduction plan contemplated by the amended stock purchase agreement;

32




•  the inability of the combined company to increase product sales;
•  the failure of key markets for the combined company's products to develop to the extent or as rapidly as currently expected;
•  the impairment of relationships with customers or suppliers;
•  the impairment of relationships with employees or the inability to retain key employees;
•  greater than anticipated costs and expenses related to restructuring, including employee severance or relocation costs and costs relating to vacating facilities;
•  a significant reduction in our cash resources which, among other things, could potentially have an adverse effect on our ability to continue to pay our quarterly cash dividends and fund other strategic acquisitions (although we do not have any plans, proposals, commitments or agreements to make any other acquisitions at this time); and
•  potential unknown liabilities associated with the acquisition and the combined operations that may not be fully covered by indemnification obligations of the Willtek shareholders.

In addition, the differences between U.S. and German business cultures and the geographic distance between the principal offices of the two companies could present significant obstacles to the timely, cost-effective integration of the companies. We may not succeed in addressing these risks or other problems that may be encountered in connection with the acquisition. The inability to successfully integrate the operations, technology and personnel of both companies, or any significant delay in achieving integration, could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations of the combined company after the completion of the acquisition and, as a result, on the market price of our common stock.

The significant direct and indirect costs of the acquisition and integration could adversely affect the financial performance of the combined company.

We expect to incur approximately $2.0 million of costs in connection with the acquisition, including:

•  costs associated with integrating the businesses of the combined company;
•  the fees of Capitalink, L.C. in connection with its delivery of a fairness opinion to our board of directors;
•  costs and expenses for services provided by our lawyers, accountants and other professionals in connection with the acquisition; and
•  if the acquisition is completed, the reasonable transaction expenses incurred by the Willtek shareholders and Willtek that are related to the acquisition, up to a maximum amount of $1.0 million.

This amount is an estimate and could increase. Furthermore, the costs and expenses we incur in connection with the acquisition, other than the transaction expenses incurred by the Willtek shareholders and Willtek that are related to the acquisition (which we are only required to pay if the acquisition is completed and, in that case, only up to a maximum of $1.0 million), must be paid even if the acquisition is not completed.

If the acquisition is completed, the transaction costs and expenses attributable to financial advisory, legal and accounting services incurred by us and the transaction expenses incurred by the Willtek shareholders and Willtek that will be paid by us under the terms of the stock purchase agreement will be capitalized as a component of the purchase price. Goodwill associated with the acquisition will be required to be tested at least annually for impairment, and we will be required to record a charge to earnings, in an amount that is not currently estimable, if there is an impairment in the value of such goodwill at a later date. Other intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition will be amortized over their estimated useful lives.

We expect to charge the other transaction costs and expenses during the periods in which they are incurred, which will reduce our earnings or increase our losses during those periods. We might not

33




be able to manage these acquisition-related costs effectively, and they could be higher than we currently estimate. If we do not manage these costs effectively, our business operations, financial results and stock price could be adversely effected.

The acquisition may be completed even though material adverse effects may result from the announcement of the acquisition, or there exists any adverse change, event, development or effect relating to the United States or German economies or financial or securities markets in general.

In general, we can refuse to complete the acquisition if, between March 31, 2004 and the closing date of the acquisition, there is any change, event or development or series of changes, events or developments (including, without limitation, those arising from or relating to the IP Allegations) which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek. Similarly, the Willtek shareholders can refuse to complete the acquisition if, between September 30, 2004 and the closing date of the acquisition, there is any change, event or development or series of changes, events or developments which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our company. However, certain types of adverse effects will not prevent the completion of the acquisition, even if they would have a material adverse effect on Willtek or our company, including:

•  any change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence or state of facts directly relating to and arising out of the public announcement or performance of the amended stock purchase agreement and the transactions contemplated by the amended stock purchase agreement; or
•  any change, effect, event, circumstance, occurrence or state of facts relating to the United States or German economies or financial or securities markets in general (but only to the extent not constituting or arising from a banking moratorium or general suspension of trading for more than five consecutive trading days on any national securities exchange or U.S. inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association).

If a material adverse effect on Willtek occurs, but we must still complete the acquisition under the terms of the amended stock purchase agreement, our stock price and the combined company's results of operations and prospects may suffer.

Risks Related to the Business of the Combined Company

Third parties could claim that the combined company is infringing on their intellectual property rights, such as one Germany-based company that has recently made the IP Allegations to Willtek, which could result in substantial costs, diversion of significant managerial resources and significant harm to the combined company's reputation.

The industries in which our company and Willtek operate are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents and frequent litigation based on allegations of patent infringement. From time to time, third parties may assert patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies in various jurisdictions that are important to the combined company's business.

In late September 2004, Willtek received written notice from a large, Germany-based company alleging that certain products of Willtek utilize (without license) intellectual property for mobile phone measuring instruments that are the subject of certain European patents owned by such company. These products represented approximately 8.9% of Willtek's revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, and approximately 5.7% of Willtek's revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2004. Willtek is currently in the process of investigating the IP Allegations. After becoming aware of the IP Allegations, we determined to proceed with the acquisition on the condition that the original definitive purchase agreement we executed in October 2004 include, among other things, (1) our right to terminate the purchase agreement prior to completion of the acquisition, if any change, event or development arising from or relating to the IP Allegations, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek, and (2) additional rights of our company to seek indemnification from the Willtek shareholders for certain liabilities arising from or related to the IP Allegations, if the acquisition is completed. These

34




provisions are also contained in the amended stock purchase agreement we executed on March 29, 2005. However, such provisions may not adequately protect us in all circumstances, and we could potentially incur substantial liability and expenses, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, in the event the Germany-based company asserts a successful claim of infringement against Willtek or the combined company after we have completed the acquisition.

For example, to exercise our right to terminate the amended stock purchase agreement under the termination right described above, we will have to make a subjective determination prior to closing the acquisition that there has occurred a change, event or development arising from or relating to the IP Allegations that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek. The only exception to this is that the parties have agreed that any license or royalty agreement that arises from or relates to any of the IP Allegations that would require Willtek to pay an amount in excess of €75,000 (approximately $96,200) per year will be deemed to have had a material adverse effect on Willtek, in which case we may terminate the amended stock purchase agreement. Conversely, our decision to complete the acquisition would also necessarily involve our subjective determination that, in fact, there has not occurred a change, event or development arising from or relating to the IP Allegations that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek. Because the investigation or remediation of the IP Allegations may not be resolved at the time the acquisition is proposed to be completed, we may have to decide whether we are entitled to exercise our right to terminate the amended stock purchase agreement or whether we should proceed to consummate the acquisition without knowledge of the full extent of any potential liability on the part of Willtek or the combined company with respect to the IP Allegations. If we decide to complete the acquisition under those circumstances, we would be assuming a risk that the Germany-based company might assert a successful claim of infringement against the combined company after we have completed the acquisition.

A successful infringement claim against us, Willtek or the combined company, either by such Germany-based company or any other third party, could subject the combined company to:

•  substantial liability for damages and litigation costs, including attorneys' fees;
•  lawsuits that prevent the combined company from further use of the intellectual property and require the combined company to permanently cease and desist from selling products that use such intellectual property;
•  having to license the intellectual property from a third party, which could include significant licensing and royalty fees not presently paid by us or Willtek and add materially to the combined company's costs of operations;
•  having to develop as a non-infringing alternative, new intellectual property which could delay projects and add materially to the combined company's costs of operations; and
•  having to indemnify customers of the combined company with respect to losses they incurred as a result of the infringement, which could include consequential and incidental damages that are material in amount.

Although we have included in the amended stock purchase agreement additional rights of our company to seek indemnification from the Willtek shareholders for certain liabilities arising from or related to the IP Allegations if the acquisition is completed, such indemnification provisions may not cover all potential liabilities, including some or all of those described above. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the Germany-based company will not make further allegations similar to the IP Allegations in respect of other products of Willtek in the future. If the acquisition is completed and an infringement claim against the combined company were to prevail, and we could not obtain a license to the relevant intellectual property on acceptable terms or license a substitute technology or redesign our products to avoid infringement, our business would be significantly harmed.

Even if we are not found liable in a claim for intellectual property infringement, such a claim could result in substantial costs, diversion of significant resources and management attention, termination of customer contracts and the loss of customers and significant harm to the reputation of the combined company.

35




Misappropriation of its intellectual property could harm the combined company's reputation, affect its competitive position and cost it money.

We believe that the intellectual property of the combined company, including its methodologies, will be critical to its success and competitive position. Both we and Willtek rely on a combination of U.S. and foreign patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality agreements to establish and protect our proprietary rights. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property against unauthorized use by third parties, the combined company's reputation among existing and potential customers could be damaged and its competitive position adversely affected.

Attempts may be made to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Accordingly, we may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our technology or deter others from developing similar technology. The combined company's strategies to deter misappropriation could be undermined if:

•  the proprietary nature or protection of its methodologies is not recognized in the United States or foreign countries;
•  third parties misappropriate its proprietary methodologies and such misappropriation is not detected; and
•  competitors create applications similar to ours but which do not technically infringe on the combined company's legally protected rights.

If these risks materialize, the combined company could be required to spend significant amounts to defend its rights and divert critical managerial resources. In addition, the combined company's proprietary methodologies may decline in value or its rights to them may become unenforceable. If any of the foregoing were to occur, the business of the combined company could be materially adversely affected.

Willtek has an extended history of operating losses and the combined company may experience losses in the future.

Although our company has realized net income in each of the past 13 years, Willtek has an extended history of operating losses and has incurred net losses in each fiscal year since its fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. At December 31, 2004, Willtek had an accumulated deficit (which includes the net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2004) of €15.6 million, or approximately $21.2 million, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, the combined company will incur significant integration costs and operating expenses in the near future, and will continue to invest significant resources in the development of its electronic noise sources, passive microwave components and electronic testing and measuring instruments for emerging wireless services and cellular networks. For at least a reasonable period of integration following the acquisition, and potentially for a much longer period of time, the costs and operating expenses of the combined company will be significantly greater than our costs and operating expenses before the acquisition. As a result, the combination of our company and Willtek will substantially increase the rate at which we will utilize our available cash resources. Accordingly, we cannot predict whether the combined company will be profitable in the future.

Under the terms of the amended stock purchase agreement, a condition to our obligation to complete the acquisition is our receipt, not later than April 30, 2005, of a definitive operating cost reduction plan from Willtek detailing a comprehensive program to permanently reduce Willtek's annual operating expenses by approximately $3,000,000 per year, which must be acceptable to us in our sole discretion. However, even if this condition is satisfied, our timely receipt of Willtek's definitive operating cost reduction plan does not necessarily mean that the combined company will be successful in implementing the plan and reducing Willtek's annual operating expenses by any amount, if at all. Furthermore, once the condition to closing has been satisfied, the failure to successfully implement the operating cost reduction plan would not entitle our company to terminate the amended stock purchase agreement, to reduce the acquisition consideration we have agreed to pay to acquire Willtek or to any indemnification from the Willtek shareholders. A failure of the combined company to

36




significantly increase its revenue as a result of the acquisition, successfully implement Willtek's operating cost reduction plan and generate cost savings through the integration of the two businesses could significantly adversely affect the business and operating results of the combined company.

Limitations on our ability to use Willtek's corporate income tax loss carryforwards, trade tax loss
carryforwards and other tax benefits may result in future net operating income being taxable income.

Willtek had corporate income tax loss carryforwards of approximately €6.1 million, or approximately $7.6 million, as of March 31, 2004, and trade tax loss carryforwards of approximately €6.2 million, or approximately $7.7 million, as of March 31, 2004. Under German tax law, the corporate income tax loss carryforwards and the trade tax loss carryforwards, or NOLs, of a company may no longer be utilized as a result of the contribution of significant business assets to the company during a five-year period following a change-in-control of the company. A change-in-control is deemed to occur when more than 50% of the share capital of a company is transferred, and significant business assets are deemed to have been contributed when the total market value of the assets contributed during a five-year period following a change-in-control exceeds the market value of the assets of the company at the date of the change-in-control. Willtek has undergone successive changes-in-control in recent years, and new business assets have been contributed to Willtek from time to time during this period, the precise value of which is difficult for us to determine. If the aggregate market value of the business assets recently contributed to Willtek exceeds certain threshold amounts, some or all of Willtek's NOLs may not be available to the combined company to offset future income, which could increase our liability for income taxes and reduce any net profit of the combined company.

As a result of the acquisition, we will be a substantially larger and geographically dispersed
organization, and if our management is unable to effectively manage the combined company after the acquisition, our operating results will suffer.

As a result of the acquisition, we will acquire approximately 146 new employees, most of whom are located in Germany. Currently, most of our employees are based at our headquarters in Parsippany, New Jersey. As a result, the combined company will face challenges inherent in efficiently managing an increased number of employees over large geographic distances, including the need to implement appropriate systems, policies, benefits and compliance programs. The inability to successfully manage the substantially larger and geographically dispersed organization, or any significant delay in achieving successful management, could have a material adverse effect on the combined company and, as a result, on the market price of our common stock.

If we are unable to successfully integrate Willtek's employees into our corporate and employee culture after the acquisition, potential synergies could be lost or diminished.

The combined company will face challenges inherent in merging distinct employee and corporate cultures into an integrated whole. The inability to successfully integrate employee and corporate cultures, or any significant delay in achieving a successful integration, could adversely affect the combined company's ability to retain and attract personnel, could result in the loss or decrease of efficiency and/or the synergies expected to be achieved as a result of the acquisition, and could have a material adverse effect on the combined company and the market price of our common stock after completion of the acquisition. Furthermore, our ability to rationalize the work force of the combined company as we integrate the operations of the two companies will require us to work with Willtek's works council in Germany. It is possible that various issues regarding terms of employment pursuant to existing agreements with Willtek's works council will not be successfully resolved, or that such resolutions will be delayed. The failure of the combined company to resolve any issues that may arise regarding terms of employment with Willtek's works council could result in a deterioration of relations with Willtek's employees after the acquisition, which could have a material adverse effect on the combined company.

The success of the combined company's strategic plan to grow sales and develop relationships in
Europe and Asia may be limited by risks related to conducting business in European and Asian
markets.

Although Willtek has experience in marketing and distributing its products and developing strategic relationships in Europe and Asia, part of the combined company's strategy will be to increase

37




sales and build additional relationships in European and Asian markets as a result of the acquisition. Risks inherent in marketing, selling and developing relationships in European and Asian markets include those associated with:

•  economic conditions in European and Asian markets, including the impact of recessions in European and Asian economies and fluctuations in the relative values of the U.S. dollar, the euro and Asian currencies;
•  taxes and fees imposed by European and Asian governments that may increase the cost of products and services;
•  greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection and longer collection periods;
•  seasonal reductions in business activities in some parts of the world;
•  laws and regulations imposed by individual countries and by the European Union, particularly with respect to intellectual property, license requirements and environmental requirements; and
•  political and economic instability, terrorism and war.

In addition, European and Asian intellectual property laws are different than and may not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do U.S. intellectual property laws, and we will have to ensure that our intellectual property is adequately protected in foreign jurisdictions and that Willtek's intellectual property is adequately protected in the United States. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property rights, competitors could use our proprietary technologies in non-protected jurisdictions and put us at a competitive disadvantage.

The combined company will face intense competition, which could result in lower revenues, higher research and development expenditures and adversely affect the combined company's results of
operations.

Both our company and Willtek operate in industries characterized by aggressive competition, rapid technological change, evolving technology standards and short product life cycles. Many competitors of the combined company utilize similar technologies to that of the combined company and have substantially greater resources and expertise in financial, technical and marketing areas than the combined company will have. Competitors of the combined company may introduce products that are competitively priced, have increased performance or functionality or incorporate technological advances that the combined company has not yet developed or implemented.

To remain competitive, the combined company must continue to develop, market and sell new and enhanced products at competitive prices, which will require significant research and development expenditures. If the combined company does not develop new and enhanced products or if it is not able to invest adequately in its research and development activities, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted.

Unless it keeps pace with changing technologies, the combined company could lose customers and fail to win new customers.

The future success of the combined company will depend upon its ability to develop and introduce a variety of new products and services and enhancements to these new products and services in order to address the changing needs of the marketplace. The combined company may not be able to accurately predict which technologies customers will support. If the combined company does not introduce new products, services and enhancements in a timely manner, if it fails to choose correctly among technical alternatives or if it fails to offer innovative products and services at competitive prices, customers may forego purchases of the combined company's products and services and purchase those of its competitors.

Moreover, Willtek has no binding long-term contractual relationships with its customers, and orders are made by Willtek's customers as and when their needs arise. Consequently, such customers may terminate their relationship with Willtek at any time and without any notice. The failure of one or more of Willtek's customers to continue purchasing products and services from the combined

38




company after the acquisition is completed could have a material adverse effect on the combined company's results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

If the combined company's products do not perform as promised, the combined company could
experience increased costs, lower margins and harm to its reputation.

The failure of the combined company's products to perform as promised could result in increased costs, lower margins and harm to the reputation of the combined company. This could result in contract terminations and have a material adverse effect on the business and financial results of the combined company.

The testing of electronic communications equipment and the accurate transmission of information
entail a risk of product liability by customers and third parties.

Claims may be asserted against the combined company by end-users of any of the combined company's products for liability due to a defective or malfunctioning device made by it, and the combined company may be subject to corresponding litigation should one or more of its products fail to perform or meet certain minimum requirements. Such a claim and corresponding litigation could result in substantial costs, diversion of resources and management attention, termination of customer contracts and harm to the reputation of the combined company.

If the combined company fails to adequately manage its resources, it could have a severe negative
impact on its financial results or stock price.

The combined company could be subject to fluctuations in technology spending by existing and potential customers. Accordingly, the combined company will have to actively manage expenses in a rapidly changing economic environment. This could require reducing costs during economic downturns and selectively growing in periods of economic expansion. If the combined company does not properly manage its resources in response to these conditions, the results of operations of the combined company could be negatively impacted.

Our customers and we are subject to various governmental regulations, compliance with which may cause the combined company to incur significant expenses, and if the combined company fails to maintain satisfactory compliance with certain regulations, it may be forced to recall products and cease their distribution, and it could be subject to civil or criminal penalties.

Our company's and Willtek's businesses are subject to various significant international, federal, state and local regulations, including but not limited to health and safety, packaging, product content, labor and import/export regulations. These regulations are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. The combined company may be required to incur significant expenses to comply with these regulations or to remedy violations of these regulations. Any failure by the combined company to comply with applicable government regulations could also result in cessation of its operations or portions of its operations, product recalls or impositions of fines and restrictions on its ability to carry on or expand its operations.

We are subject to laws and regulations governing government contracts, and failure to address these laws and regulations or comply with government contracts could harm the combined company's
business by leading to a reduction in revenue associated with these customers.

Our company has agreements relating to the sale of its products to government entities and, as a result, we are subject to various statutes and regulations that apply to companies doing business with the U.S. government. The laws governing government contracts differ from the laws governing private contracts. For example, many government contracts contain pricing terms and conditions that are not applicable to private contracts. We are also subject to investigation for compliance with the regulations governing government contracts. A failure to comply with these regulations might result in suspension of these contracts, or administrative penalties on the combined company.

39




In addition, our appointment of Cyrille Damany, a non-U.S. citizen, as our new Chief Executive Officer at the closing of the acquisition, as well as the significant beneficial ownership of our outstanding capital stock by Investcorp, a Cayman Islands limited partnership, and Damany Holding, a German private limited liability company, could result in suspension or revocation of our facility clearance with the Defense Security Service of the U.S. government, which would preclude the combined company from bidding on certain contracts with the U.S. government in the future. These contracts have generated no more than $1.0 million in revenues per year over the past five years. While we are presently negotiating with the Defense Security Service to create a special security agreement permitting the combined company to bid on certain contracts with the Defense Security Service of the U.S. government, we cannot be certain that we will obtain such an agreement from the Defense Security Service prior to the completion of the acquisition. If we cannot obtain such an agreement before completion of the acquisition, the Defense Security Service may suspend or revoke our security clearance, which would preclude the combined company from bidding on these contracts in the future.

Shortages or delay of supplies of component parts may adversely affect operating results of the
combined company until alternate sources can be developed.

The combined company's operations are dependent on the ability of suppliers to deliver quality components, devices and subassemblies in time to meet critical manufacturing and distribution schedules. If the combined company experiences any constrained supply of any such component parts, such constraints, if persistent, may adversely affect operating results until alternate sourcing can be developed. There may be an increased risk of supplier constraints in periods where the combined company is increasing production volume to meet customer demands. Volatility in the prices of these component parts, an inability to secure enough components at reasonable prices to build new products in a timely manner in the quantities and configurations demanded or, conversely, a temporary oversupply of these parts, could adversely affect the combined company's future operating results.

Environmental contamination from past operations could subject the combined company to significant costs and environmental contamination caused by ongoing operations could subject the combined company to substantial liabilities in the future.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, or the NJDEP, had conducted an investigation in 1982 concerning disposal at a facility in New Jersey previously leased by our Boonton operations. Involved were certain materials formerly used by Boonton's manufacturing operations at that site and the possible effect of such disposal on the aquifer underlying the property. The disposal practices and the use of the materials in question were discontinued in 1978, prior to our acquisition of Boonton Electronics Corporation in 2000. We and the NJDEP have agreed on a plan to correct ground water contamination at the site, pursuant to which wells have been installed by us. The plan contemplates that the wells will be operated and that soil and water samples will be taken and analyzed until such time, which we are unable to predict, that contamination levels are satisfactory to the NJDEP. While we anticipate that the expenditures in connection with the site will not be substantial in future years, if the combined company fails to continue to comply with the NJDEP plan, the combined company could be subject to significant future liabilities and may incur significant future expenditures in connection with the former Boonton site. Furthermore, the determination of the existence and cost of any additional contamination caused by the combined company at any of its U.S. or foreign sites could involve costly and time-consuming negotiations and litigation. While we and Willtek are not aware of any material liabilities associated with any potential contamination at any of our respective properties, subsurface contamination may exist, and the combined company may be exposed to material liability as a result of the existence of that contamination under various international, federal, state and local laws governing the environment.

The loss of key personnel could adversely affect the combined company's ability to remain
competitive.

We believe that the continued service of our executive officers will be important to the future growth and competitiveness of the combined company. However, other than the severance agreement

40




we recently entered into with Mr. Genova, we currently do not have any employment agreements with any of our executive officers. While we have agreed to appoint Cyrille Damany, the Chief Executive Officer of Willtek, as our new Chief Executive Officer at the closing of the acquisition, Mr. Damany initially will not have an employment agreement with our company. As a result, although Mr. Damany's employment agreement with Willtek will remain in effect after completion of the acquisition, we cannot assure you that Mr. Damany or any of our other executive officers will remain employed by us. Moreover, the design and manufacture of the combined company's products require substantial technical capabilities in many disparate disciplines, from engineering, mechanics and computer science to electronics and mathematics. We believe that the continued employment of key members of our technical and sales staffs will be important to the combined company but, as with our executive officers, we cannot assure you that they will remain employed by us.

Most of the employees of the combined company will be entitled to voluntarily terminate their relationship with the combined company, typically without any, or with only minimal, advance notice. Moreover, in 2004, we mutually terminated the employment of several of our executive officers, including two individuals who served as our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President of Marketing. The process of finding additional trained personnel to carry out the combined company's strategy and business could be lengthy, costly and disruptive. The combined company might not be able to retain the services of all of its key employees or a sufficient number of them to execute its business plan and strategy. In addition, the combined company might not be able to continue to attract new and qualified employees as required.

Future sales of our common stock by the Willtek shareholders could depress the market price of our common stock.

As of May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting described in this proxy statement, there were 17,474,551 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. In connection with the acquisition, we will issue 8,000,000 additional shares of common stock to the Willtek shareholders, which will, subject to completion of the acquisition, result in an approximately 46% increase in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately prior to the acquisition. Immediately following the acquisition, based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on May 5, 2005, the Willtek shareholders will own approximately 31.4% of our outstanding common stock on a primary basis. Subject to certain restrictions on transfer imposed by U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws and the shareholders' agreement to be executed at the closing of the acquisition, including a one-year general prohibition on any transfer of shares of our common stock owned by Investcorp and a six-month general prohibition on any transfer of shares of our common stock owned by Damany Holding (in each case except for certain transfers to permitted transferees), the Willtek shareholders may sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or in private sales which could cause the market price of our common stock to fall, and could make it more difficult for us to raise capital through public offerings or other sales of our capital stock. Additionally, the Willtek shareholders will have certain demand and incidental (or "piggyback") registration rights with respect to the shares of our common stock issued to them in the acquisition, which rights become effective on the first anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition, which will increase the number of shares of our common stock available for resale in the public market.

The new requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will increase our operating expenses, and our pending acquisition of Willtek will increase the cost of compliance and increase the risk of achieving timely compliance.

Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require annual review and evaluation of our internal control systems, and attestation of these systems by our independent auditors. We are currently undergoing a review of our internal control systems and procedures and considering improvements that will be necessary in order for us to comply with the requirements of Section 404 by the end of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. This evaluation process will require us to hire additional personnel and outside advisory service firms and will result in additional accounting and legal expenses, all of which will cause our operating expenses to increase. In

41




addition, the evaluation and attestation processes required by Section 404 are new and untested, and we may encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation of improvements and receiving a favorable review and attestation by our independent auditors. Our pending acquisition of Willtek will increase the cost and complexity of our compliance under Section 404 and increase the risk of achieving timely compliance.

Future acquisitions of companies or technologies may result in disruptions to the combined company's business.

The growth strategy of the combined company could include additional acquisitions of companies or technologies that complement those of the combined company. Future acquisitions by the combined company could involve risks inherent in acquisitions, such as:

•  challenges associated with integrating acquired technologies and business of operations acquired companies;
•  exposure to unknown liabilities;
•  diversion of managerial resources from day-to-day operations;
•  possible loss of key employees, customers and suppliers;
•  higher than expected transaction costs; and
•  additional dilution to our existing shareholders if we use our common stock as consideration.

If we fail to manage these challenges adequately, our results of operations and stock price could be adversely affected.

THE 2005 ANNUAL MEETING OF WTT'S SHAREHOLDERS

Time and Place of the Annual Meeting

This proxy statement is being furnished to our shareholders as part of the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. ("WTT") for use at the 2005 annual meeting of WTT's shareholders to be held on June 24, 2005, at 10:00 a.m., local time, at The Parsippany Hilton, One Hilton Court, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054, and any adjournments or postponements of the annual meeting. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card, are first being mailed to WTT's shareholders on or about May 10, 2005.

Purpose of the Annual Meeting

At the annual meeting, you will be asked to:

•  consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the acquisition of all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek by WTT, as contemplated by the amended and restated stock purchase agreement, dated as of March 29, 2005 (the "Amended Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and among WTT, Willtek, Investcorp and Damany Holding (Investcorp and Damany Holding together are hereinafter referred to as the "Willtek Shareholders"), resulting in Willtek becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of WTT, and all of the other transactions contemplated by the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the related ancillary agreements (the "Acquisition"), including the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock to the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition as consideration for all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek (the "Issuance");
•  elect each of Paul Genova, Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, Henry L. Bachman, John Wilchek, Michael Manza and Andrew Scelba as a member of our board of directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified;
•  consider and vote upon a proposal to adjourn the annual meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Acquisition and the Issuance; and
•  transact such other business as may properly come before the annual meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting.

Record Date; Voting Power; Quorum

WTT's board of directors has fixed the close of business (5:00 p.m., Eastern time) on May 5, 2005 as the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the annual meeting. As of the record date, approximately 17,474,551 shares of WTT's common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. A complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available at the annual meeting for inspection by any shareholder at any time during the meeting.

At the annual meeting, you may vote all shares of WTT's common stock that you own as of the record date, including shares that are: (1) held directly in your name as the holder of record and (2) held for you as the beneficial owner through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee. You are entitled to one vote per share of WTT's common stock that you own as of the record date on any matter that may properly come before the annual meeting. Shares of WTT's common stock held directly in your name as the holder of record as of the record date may be voted in person by you at the annual meeting. If you choose to do so, please bring the enclosed proxy card or proof of identification. Shares of WTT's common stock held in street name may be voted in person by you only if you obtain a signed proxy from the holder of record giving you the right to vote the shares. Whether you hold shares directly as the holder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct your vote without attending the annual meeting by completing and mailing your proxy card or voting instruction card in the enclosed postage-prepaid return envelope as soon as possible.

43




The presence, in person or by properly executed proxy, at the annual meeting of the holders of shares entitled to cast a majority of the votes at the annual meeting is necessary to constitute a quorum in order to transact business at the annual meeting. However, if a quorum is not present at the annual meeting, it is expected that the meeting will be adjourned or postponed in order to solicit additional proxies, assuming the requisite approval to adjourn is obtained.

WTT intends to conduct the annual meeting in accordance with the rules and procedures it has used in the past with respect to its annual shareholder meetings. Inspectors of election appointed for the annual meeting will tabulate the votes cast by proxy or in person at the meeting. The inspectors of election will determine whether or not a quorum is present.

Share Ownership of Management and Certain Shareholders

As of the record date, WTT's directors and executive officers and their affiliates may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of approximately 231,000 outstanding shares of WTT's common stock (collectively representing approximately 1.3% of the voting power of the common stock). It is currently expected that all directors and executive officers will vote for the Acquisition and the Issuance and for the election of each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director.

Vote Required

WTT is incorporated under New Jersey law. Under New Jersey law, approval of the Acquisition by WTT's shareholders is required before we can complete the Acquisition, because the Acquisition will result in an increase by more than 40% of the total number of shares of WTT's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition. In addition to and aside from shareholder voting rights provided for under New Jersey law, under the listing rules of the American Stock Exchange, where WTT's common stock is listed for trading, the approval by WTT's shareholders of the Issuance of 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock to Willtek's shareholders in the Acquisition is required, because the Issuance will result in an increase by more than 20% of the total number of shares of WTT's common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Issuance. Approval of the Acquisition under New Jersey law and approval of the Issuance under the listing rules of the American Stock Exchange each requires the same threshold of affirmative shareholder votes — the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. Therefore, WTT is seeking approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance by WTT's shareholders at the annual meeting to satisfy applicable shareholder voting requirements under New Jersey law and the rules of the American Stock Exchange, respectively.

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting is required to elect each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director of our company. By "plurality" we mean that the nominees who receive the highest number of votes cast "FOR" will be elected as directors. See "—Adjournments" below for a discussion of the vote required to adjourn the annual meeting.

In the election of directors, you may vote "FOR" all of the nominees or your vote may be "WITHHELD" with respect to one or more of the nominees. With respect to each of the other proposals to be presented at the annual meeting, including the proposal to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance, you may vote "FOR," "AGAINST" or "ABSTAIN." For purposes of determining the number of votes cast with respect to a matter, only those votes cast "FOR" or "AGAINST" a proposal are counted. "Broker non-votes," if any are submitted by brokers or nominees in connection with the annual meeting, will not be counted as votes "FOR" or "AGAINST" for purposes of determining the number of votes cast, but will be treated as present for quorum purposes. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by brokers or nominees as to which voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote those shares and the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power under the applicable securities exchange rules. Shares as to which a shareholder or broker withholds from voting or as to which a shareholder or broker abstains will be treated as shares that are present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions, however, will not be counted "FOR" or "AGAINST" a proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of any proposal presented at the annual meeting.

44




Voting of Proxies

You are requested to complete, date and sign the accompanying proxy and promptly return it in the accompanying envelope. If you receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction card, it means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. Shares of WTT's common stock represented by properly executed proxies (through the return of the enclosed proxy card) received in time for the annual meeting will be voted at the annual meeting in the manner specified by such proxies. If your proxy is properly executed but does not contain voting instructions, your proxy will be voted "FOR" approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance, and "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director. If other matters are properly presented before the annual meeting, the persons named in such proxy will have authority to vote in accordance with their judgment on any other such matters. It is not expected that any matter other than as described in this proxy statement will be brought before the annual meeting.

Under American Stock Exchange rules, brokers and nominees are precluded from exercising their voting discretion on the proposals to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance and to adjourn the annual meeting, if necessary, to solicit additional proxies in favor of the Acquisition and the Issuance. If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, that brokerage firm or bank will not be permitted to vote your shares with respect to those proposals unless you provide instructions how to vote your shares by following the information provided to you by your broker. You will need to provide voting instructions for all proxy and voting instruction cards your receive. Brokers and nominees may, however, exercise voting discretion in the election of directors.

If WTT's shareholders do not approve the Acquisition and the Issuance, WTT will abandon its efforts to acquire Willtek.

Revocability of Proxies

The grant of a proxy on the enclosed proxy card does not preclude a holder of record of WTT's common stock from voting in person at the annual meeting. If you are a holder of record of WTT's common stock, you may revoke a proxy at any time prior to your proxy being voted at the annual meeting by:

•  sending a written notice of revocation to the attention of Corporate Secretary, Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., at 25 Eastmans Road, Parsippany, NJ 07054;
•  sending a later signed proxy card to the attention of Corporate Secretary, Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., at 25 Eastmans Road, Parsippany, NJ 07054; or
•  attending the annual meeting and voting the shares subject to the proxy by written ballot at the meeting. Attending the annual meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy. You must also vote at the meeting.

If you revoke your proxy in writing you must indicate the certificate number and the number of shares to which such revocation relates and the aggregate number of shares represented by such certificate(s). The written notification revoking your proxy or a later-dated signed proxy card changing your vote must arrive before the annual meeting takes place in order to be acknowledged and reflected in the vote.

If you are a beneficial owner of WTT's common stock and you instructed a broker or other nominee to vote your shares, you must follow your broker's directions for changing those instructions.

If an adjournment occurs, it will have no effect on the ability of shareholders as of the record date to exercise their voting rights or to revoke any previously delivered proxies. WTT does not expect to adjourn the annual meeting for a period of time long enough to require the setting of a new record date for such meeting.

Adjournments

Although it is not expected, the annual meeting may be adjourned in the absence of a quorum or for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of the Acquisition and the Issuance. Any

45




adjournment of the annual special meeting may be made without notice, other than by an announcement made at the annual meeting, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting, whether or not a quorum exists. Any adjournment or postponement of the annual meeting for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies will allow WTT's shareholders who have already sent in their proxies to revoke them at any time prior to their use.

Solicitation of Proxies and Expenses of Solicitation

WTT generally will bear the cost of the solicitation of proxies in the enclosed form from our shareholders. In addition to solicitation by mail, our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies from shareholders by telephone, telegram, letter, facsimile or in person. Following the original mailing of the proxies and other soliciting materials, we will request that brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries forward copies of the proxy and other soliciting materials to the beneficial owners of stock held of record by such persons and request authority for the exercise of proxies. In those cases, we will reimburse such company's custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with doing so.

In addition, WTT has retained D.F. King & Co., Inc. to assist WTT in the solicitation of proxies from shareholders in connection with the annual meeting. D.F. King will receive a fee which WTT expects will not exceed $10,000 as compensation for its services and reimbursement of its out-of-pocket expenses. WTT has agreed to indemnify D.F. King against certain liabilities arising out of or in connection with its engagement.

Voting Results of the Annual Meeting

We will announce preliminary voting results at the annual meeting and publish the definitive voting results in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005. If the Acquisition and the Issuance are approved by the requisite shareholder vote and all of the other conditions to completion of the Acquisition are satisfied or, where legally permissible, waived, then upon completion of the Acquisition we will issue a press release and file a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC announcing the completion of the Acquisition. If the Acquisition and the Issuance are not approved by the requisite shareholder vote, we will promptly issue a press release stating that WTT has abandoned its efforts to acquire Willtek.

PROPOSAL 1:

APPROVAL OF THE ACQUISITION OF ALL OF THE OUTSTANDING
SHARE CAPITAL OF WILLTEK COMMUNICATIONS GmbH BY OUR
COMPANY AND THE ISSUANCE OF 8,000,000 SHARES OF OUR
COMMON STOCK IN CONNECTION WITH THE ACQUISITION

THE ACQUISITION

The following description of the material events and transactions leading to WTT's decision to undertake the Acquisition and the approval by WTT's board of directors of the Acquisition and the Issuance does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the opinion of Capitalink, L.C., which are attached to this proxy statement as Annex A and Annex B, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Background of the Acquisition

As part of our ongoing efforts to provide our customers with specialized, user-friendly electronic noise sources, passive microwave components and electronic testing and measuring instruments with unique specifications to suit their particular needs, we continue to use our strengths as a diversified technology company to enter new markets through internal development, strategic partnerships and acquisitions. Since July 2000, we completed two acquisitions: Microlab/FXR, a private entity, in December 2001, and Boonton Electronics Corporation, a public entity, in July 2000. We review attractive opportunities as and when they are presented to acquire other businesses, products and technologies that would complement our current products or technologies, expand the breadth of our markets or enhance our technical capabilities.

In early 2004, Willtek engaged SVB Alliant to assist Willtek in identifying potential strategic financial alternatives and to provide investment banking services in connection with possible business combination opportunities, including identification of potential business combination partners and assisting in negotiations with such candidates. In late March 2004, David Gray, a Managing Director of SVB Alliant, contacted Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, WTT's Chairman of the Board and acting Chief Executive Officer, by telephone to determine whether WTT would be interested in commencing discussions regarding whether a business combination or other form of strategic partnering arrangement between WTT and Willtek would be in their mutual best interests. After preliminary discussions with Mr. Gray concerning Willtek and its business and potential synergies between the two companies, and given our desire to expand our product portfolio, technological capabilities and distribution lines through strategic acquisitions, Mr. Simonyan informed Mr. Gray that WTT's senior management would be interested in learning more about Willtek's products and technologies and beginning preliminary discussions with respect to whether a business combination or other form of strategic partnering arrangement would be viable and in the best interest of WTT and its shareholders.

On April 20, 2004, Messrs. Simonyan, Gray, Hazem Ben-Gacem, a partner of Investcorp (Willtek's majority shareholder), and Cyrille Damany, Willtek's Chief Executive Officer and the owner of all of the outstanding share capital of Damany Holding (Willtek's minority shareholder), discussed telephonically the possibility of a strategic combination of WTT and Willtek, the rationale for such transaction and other matters. Following the conference, Mr. Simonyan informed Messrs. Gray, Ben-Gacem and Damany that he would report the substance of these initial discussions to WTT's senior management team, and the parties tentatively agreed that further discussions to explore a possible business combination in more depth would be appropriate.

On April 22, 2004, Mr. Simonyan reported to our board of directors on his preliminary discussions with Messrs. Gray, Ben-Gacem and Damany regarding a potential acquisition of Willtek by WTT and discussed the rationale for such a transaction. Mr. Simonyan informed our board that based on a very preliminary understanding of Willtek's products and technologies, and subject to an extensive financial, operational and legal due diligence investigation, WTT's senior management

47




believed that an acquisition of Willtek could enable WTT to expand its product portfolio into market segments with attractive growth prospects, strengthen WTT's presence in Europe and Asia, and increase WTT's revenue base. On the basis of Mr. Simonyan's report, our board of directors supported further discussions regarding a potential acquisition of Willtek and determined that a preliminary due diligence request list should be submitted to Willtek's management to facilitate further discussions and considerations regarding a potential acquisition of Willtek by WTT.

On April 30, 2004, Willtek delivered to WTT a proposed form of mutual confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement with respect to each party's review of confidential information of the other party. On May 3, 2004, WTT and Willtek executed the confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement whereby, among other things, each party agreed to keep confidential all non-public materials supplied to it in connection with its review of a proposed transaction between WTT and Willtek.

On or about June 10, 2004, WTT's senior management received certain financial, operating and business-related information from Willtek and, during the course of the next several weeks, representatives of WTT began to review such information concerning Willtek and its subsidiaries. On July 20, 2004, Messrs. Simonyan and Paul Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, visited Willtek's offices in Ismaning, Germany to conduct preliminary financial due diligence on Willtek and its subsidiaries and met with Messrs. Damany and Eckehard Mielke, Willtek's Chief Financial Officer, regarding financial, technical and operational matters related to Willtek's business. Between July 20 and July 25, 2004, WTT's management continued its due diligence analyses of Willtek, and Messrs. Simonyan, Genova, Ben-Gacem, Damany and Gray continued to discuss various aspects of a potential business combination, including the results of operations, cash position and prospects of WTT and Willtek.

On July 26, 2004, our board of directors held its regular quarterly meeting. At the meeting, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova reported to our board on the results of their preliminary business and financial due diligence review of Willtek and its subsidiaries and their further discussions with Messrs. Ben-Gacem, Damany and Mielke regarding a potential acquisition of Willtek. Mr. Simonyan advised our board that based on senior management's preliminary business and financial due diligence review of Willtek, our senior management continued to believe that acquiring Willtek potentially could enable WTT to expand further into overseas markets, to gain global economies of scale with the potential of significant synergistic gains through greater distribution for both WTT's and Willtek's products, and to combine the intellectual property of both companies to develop new products and improve existing products of both companies. Mr. Simonyan then submitted to our board of directors a draft term sheet setting forth generally certain principal terms of a proposed acquisition of Willtek, including a proposed purchase price consisting of $7,000,000 in cash and 8,000,000 newly issued shares of WTT's common stock (the "Original Acquisition Consideration"). Mr. Simonyan advised the board that the purchase price set forth in the draft term sheet was based on WTT's senior management's analysis of Willtek's revenues for its fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003 and, based on financial and other information that had been provided to WTT's management by representatives of Willtek and Investcorp, WTT's senior management's best assessment of Willtek's financial and business prospects, as well as certain information obtained by WTT's senior management concerning recent comparable transactions. In setting the number of shares of WTT's common stock to be issued, Mr. Simonyan advised the board that management took into consideration the average trading price of WTT's common stock over the past two years. After discussion and deliberation, our board of directors approved the principal terms contained in the draft term sheet and authorized management to deliver a non-binding letter of intent containing such terms to Investcorp and Damany Holding.

In early August 2004, we delivered to the Willtek Shareholders for discussion purposes a non-binding letter of intent containing an indication of our interest in acquiring Willtek, subject to the results of full legal, financial and business due diligence investigations of Willtek and its subsidiaries, and attaching the term sheet which our board of directors had reviewed and approved. In addition to the proposed purchase price, the letter of intent set forth certain other principal terms of a proposed acquisition of Willtek by WTT, including provisions relating to restrictions on the resale of WTT's common stock to be received by Willtek's shareholders in the transaction, the ability of the Willtek Shareholders to designate three individuals for nomination by WTT's board for election as directors of

48




WTT following the transaction, certain conditions precedent to consummation of the transaction to be included in a definitive purchase agreement, and provisions regarding exclusivity, confidentiality and certain due diligence arrangements among the parties.

During the first two weeks of August 2004, our senior management, together with our outside general counsel, Greenberg Traurig, LLP, negotiated with the Willtek Shareholders and their outside legal counsel, Linklaters Oppenhoff & Rädler, the proposed transaction structure, the approximate time frame of signing and closing the proposed transaction, and provisions relating to exclusivity, confidentiality and payment of expenses. For various domestic and foreign legal, regulatory and commercial reasons, the parties agreed that the transaction should be structured as an acquisition by WTT of all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek directly from the Willtek Shareholders, with Willtek becoming a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of WTT. As a substantial portion of the Original Acquisition Consideration was to consist of 8,000,000 newly issued shares of WTT's common stock, the parties discussed the necessity of the Willtek Shareholders conducting full financial, business and legal due diligence of WTT. The parties also negotiated certain additional terms of a proposed acquisition transaction, including the escrow of a certain portion of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the transaction to secure the indemnity obligations of such shareholders under the definitive purchase agreement, the grant of certain registration rights covering all of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the transaction, and certain additional conditions precedent to consummation of the transaction to be included in a definitive purchase agreement. The parties agreed to target late September 2004 as the signing and public announcement date of a definitive purchase agreement. On August 20, 2004, WTT, Investcorp and Willtek executed the non-binding letter of intent.

On August 20, 2004, we engaged Nörr Stiefenhofer Lutz, a German law firm, to assist us in conducting comprehensive legal due diligence on Willtek and to advise us with respect to German corporate, tax, labor, employment, real estate, intellectual property, antitrust and other legal issues in connection with the proposed acquisition of Willtek. On that date, representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer conferred telephonically to review the executed letter of intent and term sheet and to more specifically discuss the proposed deal structure, business and legal issues, the proposed timing of the transaction and the required documentation therefor. During such conference, it was suggested that Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer proceed expeditiously with full legal due diligence of Willtek and preparation of a draft purchase agreement and ancillary transaction documents, including a draft escrow agreement covering the escrow of a certain portion of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the acquisition to secure the indemnity obligations of such shareholders under the purchase agreement, and a draft shareholders' agreement containing certain corporate governance provisions, restrictions on the disposition of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the transaction and registration rights provisions relating to such securities.

During the week of August 23, 2004, Nörr Stiefenhofer provided Linklaters and Willtek with a comprehensive legal due diligence request list on behalf of WTT, and Linklaters provided WTT and Greenberg Traurig with a comprehensive legal due diligence request list on behalf of Investcorp and Damany Holding. Between August 26 and August 31, 2004, representatives of Nörr Stiefenhofer met with representatives of Willtek at Willtek's offices in Ismaning, Germany and discussed a variety of corporate, tax, labor, employment, pension, intellectual property and other matters.

On August 31, 2004, Greenberg Traurig delivered to Investcorp and the Willtek Shareholders, and WTT's management delivered to the members of WTT's board of directors, a first draft stock purchase agreement, subject to additional modifications based on continuing due diligence by WTT and its legal and financial advisors over the next several weeks. On September 1, 2004, Investcorp executed the mutual confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement previously executed by WTT and Willtek. Between September 1 and September 2, 2004, representatives of Investcorp met with representatives of WTT at WTT's principal executive offices in Parsippany, New Jersey and discussed a variety of financial, business and legal issues relating to the proposed acquisition.

On September 3, 2004, WTT engaged Capitalink, L.C. to provide WTT's board of directors an opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders of the Original

49




Acquisition Consideration proposed to be paid by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders in the proposed acquisition. Capitalink provided WTT with a comprehensive due diligence request list with respect to both WTT and Willtek in connection with Capitalink's financial analysis of the parties and the proposed acquisition.

On September 6, 2004, Linklaters delivered a consolidated mark-up of the first draft stock purchase agreement to WTT, Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer, reflecting the Willtek Shareholders' and Linklaters' initial comments thereon. Between September 7 and September 10, 2004, Mr. Genova and representatives of Nörr Stiefenhofer met with representatives of Willtek at Willtek's offices in Ismaning, Germany to discuss further various financial, commercial, tax, legal and other matters in connection with WTT's due diligence investigation of Willtek and its subsidiaries. WTT requested at this time certain back-up information regarding Willtek's net operating loss carryforwards and certain other information concerning tax matters, various intercompany agreements and shareholder loans, payroll and other information concerning Willtek's employees, and various intellectual property, labor, pension and insurance matters. Also during this time, Greenberg Traurig delivered to the Willtek Shareholders and Linklaters, and WTT's management delivered to WTT's board of directors, first drafts of an escrow agreement and a shareholders' agreement relating to the proposed acquisition, representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer continued to assist WTT in its due diligence review of Willtek and provide periodic updates of the status of their legal due diligence efforts, representatives of Investcorp and Linklaters continued their due diligence review of WTT, and members of WTT's board of directors were kept informed of all material developments by WTT's management.

On September 13, 2004, representatives of WTT's management and Greenberg Traurig spoke telephonically to address numerous aspects of WTT's financial and business due diligence review of Willtek and the consolidated mark-up of the initial draft stock purchase agreement submitted by Linklaters. On September 14, 2004, representatives of WTT's management and the Willtek Shareholders spoke telephonically to discuss various business issues relating to the initial draft stock purchase agreement and related transaction agreements, including the substance and scope of the representations and warranties, certain operational and tax covenants and the indemnification obligations of the parties, as well as provisions relating to the payment of fees and expenses of the parties, and representatives of WTT and Investcorp communicated the substance of such discussion to representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters, respectively. Between September 15 and September 17, 2004, Greenberg Traurig prepared a revised draft stock purchase agreement, Nörr Stiefenhofer and Deloitte & Touche continued to assist WTT in its due diligence review of Willtek, Capitalink continued their due diligence review and financial analyses with respect to both WTT and Willtek, representatives of Investcorp continued their due diligence review of WTT, and WTT's senior management periodically informed members of WTT's board of directors of all material developments.

On September 17, 2004, Greenberg Traurig delivered to the Willtek Shareholders and Linklaters, and WTT's management delivered to WTT's board of directors, a revised draft stock purchase agreement and a detailed explanatory memorandum discussing various issues relating to Linklaters' initial consolidated mark-up thereof, and on September 20, 2004, Greenberg Traurig delivered to the Willtek Shareholders and Linklaters, and WTT's management delivered to WTT's board of directors, a revised draft of the shareholders' agreement relating to the proposed transaction. On September 21, 2004, representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters spoke telephonically to discuss the terms of the revised draft stock purchase agreement and related ancillary transaction agreements. Extensive discussions ensued relating to the substance and scope of the representations and warranties of the parties; the scope and tenor of certain operational, tax and other covenants and agreements of the parties, including the Willtek Shareholders' covenant not to solicit or facilitate the making of competing acquisition proposals and each party's agreement not to solicit or entice away the employees of the other parties to the agreement; the conditions precedent to each party's obligation to close the transaction; the scope and limitations of the indemnification obligations of the parties, including appropriate "basket" provisions and caps on each party's indemnification obligations; the definition of "material adverse effect"; and the stock purchase agreement termination provisions.

50




During this conference, it was also discussed that in order to allow the proposed acquisition to be completed without triggering a termination right of Investcorp under an existing loan agreement between Investcorp and Willtek dated March 12, 2003, and to make other provisions relating to WTT, as the parent company of Willtek following the proposed acquisition, Willtek and Investcorp would enter into a new loan agreement upon execution of the stock purchase agreement (to become effective at the closing of the transaction) for an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest under the existing loan agreement between Investcorp and Willtek (repayment of which would be guaranteed by WTT), and the existing loan agreement would be terminated at the closing of the transaction. Representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters agreed to report the substance of their discussions and negotiations to the senior management of WTT and to representatives of the Willtek Shareholders, respectively.

On September 22, 2004, Linklaters delivered to Greenberg Traurig a consolidated mark-up of the revised stock purchase agreement reflecting its and the Willtek Shareholders' comments, as well as an initial draft of the proposed new loan agreement. Between September 22 and September 26, 2004, negotiations continued between WTT, the Willtek Shareholders, Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters regarding the terms and conditions of the drafts of the stock purchase agreement, the shareholders' agreement and the new loan agreement. During this time, additional mark-ups and comments regarding the most recent version of the stock purchase agreement and related transactional documents were exchanged by Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters. Also during this time, drafts of sellers' schedules to the stock purchase agreement were delivered by the Willtek Shareholders to WTT, drafts of purchaser's schedules to the stock purchase agreement were delivered by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders, members of WTT's board of directors received periodic updates with respect to the status of the negotiations, representatives of WTT and its financial, legal and other advisors finalized their due diligence review of Willtek, and representatives of the Willtek Shareholders and their professional advisors finalized their due diligence review of WTT.

On September 27, 2004, at a meeting of WTT's board of directors, at which senior members of WTT's management team and representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Capitalink were present, the board considered the transactions contemplated by the stock purchase agreement and related ancillary agreements. At the meeting, representatives of Greenberg Traurig discussed the board's fiduciary duties under applicable law and the history of the negotiations leading to the most current draft of the stock purchase agreement and related transaction agreements which had been furnished to the members of the board prior to the meeting, as well as a discussion of the material terms and conditions of each of such agreements. Representatives of Greenberg Traurig then discussed with our board of directors various open matters relating to the transaction agreements that had not yet been resolved or agreed upon by the parties, highlighted certain due diligence information contained in preliminary legal and tax due diligence memoranda prepared by Nörr Stiefenhofer, and addressed the SEC filing and review process relative to this proxy statement, as well as certain matters relating to the public announcement of the proposed acquisition and disclosure requirements. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova next presented management's financial assessment of the benefits and risks of the proposed acquisition, the anticipated financial and operational impacts of the proposed acquisition, the proposed operational and technical integration strategies and anticipated cost synergies, Willtek's financial condition, and a general assessment of Willtek's fiscal strengths and weaknesses.

Capitalink next provided a detailed presentation to our board of directors as to certain financial elements of the proposed transaction and an overview of WTT's and Willtek's financial condition. Capitalink then presented, with respect to Willtek, its selected comparable company analysis, selected comparable transaction analysis and discounted cash flows analysis and other observations. Following a lengthy question and answer period and in response to board inquiries regarding the proposed transaction consideration and further financial due diligence clarifications, Capitalink presented to the board its written opinion to the effect that, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in the opinion, as of September 27, 2004, the Original Acquisition Consideration to be paid by WTT in the acquisition to the Willtek Shareholders was fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders.

51




After further deliberation as to the advisability of entering into the stock purchase agreement on the terms and conditions reviewed by and outlined to our board of directors by WTT's senior management, our board's understanding and review of all transaction documentation and the transaction structure, tax and accounting consequences, reasons and timing of the proposed acquisition, and with the assistance and advice of its outside financial and legal advisors, our board of directors unanimously determined that the proposed transaction was advisable and in the best interests of WTT and its shareholders, approved the proposed transaction, approved the stock purchase agreement (the "Original Stock Purchase Agreement"), the new loan agreement, and the other related ancillary agreements in substantially the forms of the most recent drafts presented to and reviewed by our board with WTT's senior management and Greenberg Traurig (but with such final non-material changes thereto as WTT's senior management and Greenberg Traurig may further negotiate within the parameters agreed upon by our board during the meeting), and resolved to recommend that WTT's shareholders vote affirmatively to approve the proposed transaction at a special meeting to be duly convened as promptly as practicable for such purpose.

Promptly after the special meeting of WTT's board of directors on September 27, 2004, Mr. Simonyan notified Messrs. Ben-Gacem and Damany that WTT's board had resolved to approve the transactions contemplated by the most recent draft of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions contained therein and with such modifications and additional terms and conditions as WTT's board had discussed during the special meeting, and that WTT's senior management had been authorized to resolve all open issues on the terms outlined by WTT's board of directors at the special meeting, deliver final purchaser's schedules to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and finalize all sellers' schedules thereto, and conclude all negotiations and finalize all transaction-related documents.

On September 29, 2004, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova were informed by Mr. Damany that Willtek had received a letter dated September 21, 2004 from a large, Germany-based company alleging that certain products of Willtek utilize intellectual property for mobile phone measuring instruments that are the subject of certain European patents owned by such company (the "IP Letter"), and copies of the IP Letter were then forwarded to representatives of WTT, Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer. Promptly thereafter, representatives of WTT, Greenberg Traurig and Nörr Stiefenhofer conferred telephonically concerning the IP Allegations made in the IP Letter, the potential impact of the IP Allegations on Willtek, the acquisition and the combined company assuming the acquisition were to be completed, and suggested revisions to the most recent draft of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement addressing the IP Allegations. Mr. Simonyan then contacted telephonically the other members of our board of directors and related to them the substance of such discussion and circulated to each board member a copy of the IP Letter, and representatives of Greenberg Traurig contacted representatives of Capitalink to relate the substance of such discussion and forwarded to Capitalink a copy of the IP Letter.

Messrs. Simonyan and Genova then contacted Mr. Damany concerning the IP Allegations. Mr. Damany advised Messrs. Simonyan and Genova that the Willtek products referenced in the IP Letter represented approximately 8.9% of Willtek's gross revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, and approximately 6.3% of Willtek's revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2004. Mr. Damany further advised Messrs. Simonyan and Genova that he believed the IP Allegations to be without merit, and that it was his understanding that allegations similar to those recited in the IP Letter had been disseminated in the past by the Germany-based company to certain of Willtek's competitors. Mr. Damany further related that it was his own belief that the dissemination of correspondence such as the IP Letter was an effort by the Germany-based company to seek to generate additional royalty revenues, and noted in that regard that the IP Letter specifically stated that the Germany-based company was prepared to grant Willtek a license to use its proprietary technology for mobile phone measuring instruments on "fair and reasonable terms." Mr. Damany noted that he could not hypothesize what "fair and reasonable" license terms would be, but that a customary royalty arrangement generally ranged between approximately 1% and 3% of the gross revenues derived from the products utilizing the patented technology. Mr. Damany also noted that he

52




intended to schedule a meeting with representatives of the Germany-based company in the near term to demonstrate that the IP Allegations are, in his opinion, without merit.

Messrs. Simonyan and Genova then telephonically related the substance of their discussion with Mr. Damany to representatives of Capitalink and Greenberg Traurig, and the parties discussed the basis for and assumptions underlying Capitalink's fairness opinion, as well as the models used by Capitalink to value Willtek. Representatives of Capitalink advised that on the basis of the uncertain and speculative information related to them by Messrs. Simonyan and Genova regarding the IP Allegations, and because its fairness opinion dated as of September 27, 2004 was based solely on information presented to it by both WTT and Willtek as of that date, there did not exist sufficient information or any basis for Capitalink to revise its pro forma valuation models for Willtek on a stand-alone basis or on a combined basis with WTT, or to modify in any respect its fairness opinion dated as of September 27, 2004.

Representatives of Greenberg Traurig then discussed with Messrs. Simonyan and Genova suggested revisions to the most recent draft Original Stock Purchase Agreement to protect WTT in the event the IP Allegations were proven to have merit, including an express termination right in the event of a material adverse effect on Willtek arising out of the IP Allegations and additional rights of WTT to seek indemnification from the Willtek Shareholders for certain liabilities arising out of the IP Allegations. Subsequently, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova conferred telephonically with the other members of WTT's board of directors and related the substance of their discussions with Mr. Damany and with representatives of Capitalink and Greenberg Traurig. On the basis of these discussions and after polling individually each member of WTT's board, each director informally reaffirmed that provided the suggested revisions to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement were successfully negotiated to the board's satisfaction, the proposed acquisition was advisable and in the best interests of WTT and its shareholders. Accordingly, WTT's board of directors did not consider it necessary to request Capitalink to "bring down" its fairness opinion as of the date the Original Stock Purchase Agreement was executed. WTT's board then authorized Messrs. Simonyan and Genova to proceed with the proposed acquisition on the condition that the foregoing revisions to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement were incorporated therein to the board's satisfaction.

Thereafter, representatives of Greenberg Traurig contacted representatives of Linklaters and advised that WTT would be forwarding certain revisions to the most recent draft of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement which, in addition to such modifications and additional terms and conditions as WTT's board had discussed during its special meeting, would include certain provisions addressing the IP Allegations, including the right of WTT to terminate the Original Stock Purchase Agreement prior to completion of the acquisition, if any change, event or development arising from or relating to the IP Allegations, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek, and additional rights of WTT to seek indemnification from the Willtek Shareholders for certain liabilities arising from or related to the IP Allegations, if the acquisition is completed. On September 30, 2004, Greenberg Traurig forwarded to Messrs. Simonyan and Genova and representatives of Nörr Stiefenhofer a revised draft of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement containing, among other things, the above-referenced provisions addressing the IP Allegations, and the parties discussed telephonically such revisions. Later that day, representatives of Greenberg Traurig forwarded the revised draft to representatives of Investcorp, Damany Holding and Linklaters, WTT's management forwarded copies thereof to the members of WTT's board of directors, and Mr. Simonyan discussed telephonically such revisions with each of the other members of our board.

Between October 1 and October 4, 2004, representatives of WTT, the Willtek Shareholders, Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters continued discussions with a view toward finalizing all transaction-related documentation within the parameters established by WTT's board of directors during its September 27, 2004 special meeting and taking into account the IP Allegations made in the IP Letter. During this time, the parties resolved all remaining open items with respect to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements, including, the right of WTT to terminate the Original Stock Purchase Agreement prior to completion of the acquisition, if any change, event or development arising from or relating to the IP Allegations, individually or in the aggregate, has had or

53




would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek; WTT's right to seek indemnification from the Willtek Shareholders for certain liabilities arising from or relating to the IP Allegations, if the acquisition is completed; the cap for the parties' indemnification obligations relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and certain tax indemnification obligations contained in the Original Stock Purchase Agreement; the cap on WTT's obligation to pay the fees and expenses of the Willtek Shareholders and Willtek in connection with the proposed acquisition; the terms of the Willtek Shareholders' obligation to vote in favor of certain board nominees as set forth in the draft shareholders' agreement; and certain restrictions and conditions applicable in the event the Willtek Shareholders receive certain unsolicited proposals to acquire Willtek. Also during this time, additional mark-ups and comments relating to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements were exchanged by Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters, final copies of sellers' schedules to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement were delivered by the Willtek Shareholders to WTT, final copies of purchaser's schedules to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement were delivered by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders, and members of WTT's board of directors received periodic updates with respect to the status of all final negotiations and revisions to the transaction agreements.

On October 5, 2004, the parties executed and delivered to each other counterpart signature pages to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement, providing for the acquisition of Willtek in exchange for the Original Acquisition Consideration (then valued at approximately $26.4 million, based on the average of the high and low sales prices per share of WTT's common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on October 4, 2004), and the new loan agreement, and WTT issued a press release announcing such event and filed such press release with the SEC. On October 6, 2004, WTT filed with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), reporting the transaction and making publicly available the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and new loan agreement.

Subsequent to the execution of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and new loan agreement, WTT held general discussions for the post-closing integration of Willtek's business with WTT's business operations, and, with a view to reducing costs, the restructuring of certain business units within Willtek's business. At or about this time, the parties, together with their legal, accounting and financial advisors, commenced preparation of WTT's preliminary proxy materials to be used to solicit proxies from WTT's shareholders to approve the proposed acquisition, and the parties prepared applicable filings to be made with respect to the proposed acquisition under German antitrust regulations. Between early October and late November 2004, representatives of WTT and Willtek met and conferred several times, and Willtek provided additional historical consolidated financial data of Willtek for the September, October and November 2004 monthly periods.

On November 24, 2004, representatives of Willtek met with representatives of the Germany-based company that delivered the IP Letter to Willtek to discuss the IP Allegations. During this meeting, Mr. Damany and other representatives of Willtek described in detail the technology utilized in each of the Willtek products referenced in the IP Letter and explained their position that such technology is not covered by the European patents referenced in the IP Letter. After listening to Willtek's presentation at the meeting, representatives of the company that made the IP Allegations verbally indicated to representatives of Willtek that they probably would no longer be concerned with Willtek's code division multiple access (CDMA) products, but that further discussions would be necessary with respect to Willtek's general packet radio service (GPRS) products to determine whether those products were utilizing certain technology for mobile phone measuring instruments covered by patents owned by such company. The parties then agreed that further discussions concerning Willtek's GPRS products would be scheduled at a mutually convenient time in the future. Following the meeting, representatives of Willtek advised Messrs. Simonyan and Genova of the substance of these discussions and explained that Willtek's CDMA and GPRS products represented only approximately 7.7% and 1.2%, respectively, of Willtek's gross revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, and approximately 4.3% and 2.0%, respectively, of Willtek's revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2004. Mr. Simonyan telephonically related the same to each of the other members of WTT's board of directors.

54




Between early December 2004 and mid-January 2005, WTT continued its discussions with Willtek's management concerning the post-closing integration of Willtek's business with WTT's business operations and the restructuring of certain business units. Also, the parties continued preparation of preliminary proxy materials in connection with the proposed acquisition. During this time, the parties encountered some delay in converting Willtek's consolidated financial information from an International Financial Reporting Standards presentation to a U.S. GAAP presentation and conforming such information to applicable SEC regulations, which was necessary for the preparation of WTT's preliminary proxy materials. Also during this time, Willtek provided additional historical consolidated financial data of Willtek for the December 2004 monthly period.

On January 21, 2005, our board of directors held its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting, to which Mr. Damany was invited. At the meeting, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova reported to the board on the discussions relating to post-closing integration and the restructuring of Willtek's business units, their analyses of the additional historical consolidated financial data of Willtek for each of the monthly periods from September through December 2004, and the status of preparation of WTT's preliminary proxy materials, applicable filings under German antitrust regulations and other transactional activities. Mr. Genova noted that based on Willtek's historical financial data for the monthly periods from September through December 2004, Willtek had failed to achieve certain financial targets that previously had been related by representatives of Willtek to WTT's senior management, primarily due to Willtek's slower-than-anticipated penetration of certain markets in Asia. Mr. Damany was then asked to give a detailed presentation of Willtek's operational and financial expectations for the 2005 calendar year and a detailed description of Willtek's November 2004 meeting concerning the IP Allegations, as well as Willtek's strategy on a going-forward basis with respect to the IP Allegations.

Between mid-January and early March 2005, the parties made initial and revised filings with the SEC of WTT's preliminary proxy materials in connection with the proposed acquisition, and made initial filings under applicable German antitrust laws. Also during this time, Willtek provided updated historical consolidated financial data for the January and February 2005 monthly periods. In early March 2005, upon receipt of Willtek's February 2005 historical consolidated financial data, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova telephonically related their analyses thereof to the other members of WTT's board, and advised the other directors that based on such additional financial data, Willtek continued to fall short of certain financial goals previously related by representatives of Willtek to WTT's senior management for the same reasons discussed at the board's January 21st meeting. The directors then discussed with Messrs. Simonyan and Genova management's confidence in Willtek's ability to meet its financial goals for the first calendar quarter of 2005. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova also advised the board that March 31, 2005 was the outside termination date of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and that, given the current status of the transaction, it was not possible for WTT to convene a special meeting of its shareholders and complete the proposed acquisition prior to such time. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova further advised the board that additional meetings with the Willtek Shareholders should be pursued to renegotiate certain terms of the proposed acquisition of Willtek, including, among other things, a reduction of the Original Acquisition Consideration.

At that time, WTT's board of directors determined that it should convene additional weekly meetings to discuss the progress of the renegotiations for the proposed acquisition of Willtek and to review further financial analyses of Willtek and its prospects to be prepared by WTT's financial management. The board then authorized Messrs. Simonyan and Genova to contact the Willtek Shareholders and representatives of Willtek to advise them accordingly and to meet with them to renegotiate certain terms of the proposed acquisition which Messrs. Simonyan and Genova had generally discussed with the board. Thereafter, representatives of WTT contacted representatives of Investcorp to advise that WTT's board had requested their attendance at a meeting to be held on March 17, 2005, among other things, to discuss the proposed acquisition of Willtek and that, prior to such meeting, the parties should discuss Willtek's present consolidated financial condition and prospects and various revisions to the terms of the proposed acquisition of Willtek in light of the recent financial data of Willtek provided to WTT. Representatives of WTT then furnished Capitalink with additional consolidated financial data of Willtek, advised Capitalink of the status of the

55




transaction and requested that Capitalink prepare an updated financial presentation to WTT's board, as and when revised transaction terms were finalized, together with an updated fairness opinion, at the appropriate time. Representatives of Greenberg Traurig then contacted representatives of Nörr Stiefenofer and advised that WTT's board would require a "bring down" of Nörr Stiefenofer's legal due diligence memorandum, which was presented to WTT's board in September 2004.

Between March 14 and March 16, 2005, representatives of WTT and Investcorp held a series of meetings at WTT's offices in Parsippany, New Jersey to discuss and negotiate various revisions to the terms of the proposed acquisition. During such meetings, the parties acknowledged Willtek's failure to meet certain financial targets and recognized the importance to the combined company's integration strategy of conserving WTT's existing cash resources and reducing Willtek's annual operating expenses. Accordingly, the parties agreed in principle to reduce the Original Acquisition Consideration by eliminating the $7.0 million cash component, to eliminate the right of Damany Holding to designate one director for nomination for election to WTT's board, and to require that Willtek prepare a comprehensive plan to permanently reduce its total annual operating expenses by approximately $3.0 million per year, which plan must be acceptable to WTT in its sole discretion, as a condition to closing the acquisition.

On March 17, 2005, WTT's board held a special meeting, at which senior members of WTT's management team and representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Investcorp were present. At the meeting, Messrs. Simonyan and Genova presented a detailed financial analysis of the historical consolidated financial data of Willtek for the monthly periods between September 2004 and February 2005, and their current assessment of Willtek's operational, business and financial prospects. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova also advised the board of the substance of their negotiations with representatives of Investcorp. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova advised the board that continued negotiations were required and that the parties did not yet have a "meeting of the minds" on the proposed modifications to the transaction terms. A question and answer period ensued during which the board presented questions to Messrs. Simonyan and Genova relating to Willtek's historical financial data and prospects, and to representatives of Greenberg Traurig relating to the terms of the proposed acquisition under the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements.

At that time, representatives of Investcorp were invited to join the meeting and additional discussions ensued concerning the negotiations. During these discussions, the parties further agreed in principle that Investcorp would increase the term of its post-acquisition "lock-up" from six months to one year, that the demand and "piggyback" registration rights of the Willtek Shareholders would commence one year (as opposed to six months) after the closing date of the acquisition, and that Investcorp would waive its right to receive, in its capacity as a post-acquisition shareholder of WTT, cash dividends declared or set aside by WTT's board during the period beginning on the closing date of the acquisition and ending on December 31, 2005. It was also discussed that the terms of the new loan agreement entered into on October 5, 2004 would be revised to require payment of all outstanding indebtedness thereunder in one lump sum on December 31, 2006, as opposed to amortization payments in equal installments through June 30, 2008, and to reduce the interest rate from 8% to 4% per year, and that an amended loan agreement would be entered into simultaneously with the execution of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement superseding the October 5, 2004 loan agreement (the "Amended Loan Agreement"). At that time, representatives of Investcorp recused themselves from the meeting and the board further deliberated on the negotiations with Investcorp and the presentations made by Messrs. Simonyan and Genova and representatives of Greenberg Traurig. After further deliberation, the board of directors determined that Messrs. Simonyan and Genova should continue discussions with representatives of Investcorp regarding revisions to the terms of the proposed acquisition, and decided that additional weekly meetings of the board would be convened as appropriate.

On March 18, 2005, Greenberg Traurig forwarded to Messrs. Simonyan and Genova, and to representatives of Investcorp, Damany Holding, Linklaters, Nörr Stiefenofer and Capitalink a draft of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related shareholders' agreement, as revised, containing the revised transaction terms and conditions discussed by the parties prior to and during the board's March 17, 2005 special meeting, and Investcorp forwarded to Messrs. Simonyan and Genova, and to

56




representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters, a draft of the Amended Loan Agreement containing the revised terms discussed at such board meeting. Between March 18 and March 21, 2005, negotiations continued among WTT, the Willtek Shareholders, Greenberg Traurig and Linklaters regarding the terms and conditions of the drafts of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, the revised shareholders' agreement and Amended Loan Agreement. Also during this time, members of WTT's board of directors received periodic updates with respect to the status of the negotiations, and representatives of WTT and Capitalink finalized their further due diligence review of Willtek.

On March 22, 2005, WTT's compensation committee held a special meeting, at which the committee discussed the relative contributions of each of Messrs. Simonyan and Genova to WTT and their efforts in connection with the proposed acquisition of Willtek. With respect to Mr. Genova, the compensation committee believed that Mr. Genova's continued service with the combined company would be critical in connection with the implementation of Willtek's cost reduction program and the combined company's efforts to realize financial and operational synergies as a result of the acquisition and, in light of the fact that Mr. Genova presently does not have an employment agreement with WTT, the committee believed it to be appropriate to provide Mr. Genova with reasonable incentives for his future contributions to WTT. Accordingly, the compensation committee unanimously determined that WTT should consider a severance arrangement with Mr. Genova. The committee then discussed various severance terms and conditions and determined that an appropriate severance arrangement for Mr. Genova would include, among other things, a payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect, as well as the continuation of all benefits to which he is currently entitled for a period of nine months following termination of his employment under certain circumstances to be determined by the committee. With respect to Mr. Simonyan, the compensation committee believed that to provide him with appropriate incentives for his future contributions to WTT and his commitment to remain on the board of directors following completion of the acquisition and to serve as non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board, the board should grant Mr. Simonyan incentive stock options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of WTT's common stock, at an exercise price equal to the closing price of WTT's common stock on the date of grant, which incentive stock options would vest ratably over a period of three years from the date of grant. After further deliberation, WTT's compensation committee unanimously resolved to consider further an appropriate severance arrangement for Mr. Genova and, with Mr. Simonyan abstaining, further resolved to recommend to WTT's full board of directors at its next special meeting later that day that it grant incentive stock options to Mr. Simonyan to purchase up to 100,000 shares of WTT's common stock, subject to the foregoing vesting schedule.

Later that day, WTT's board of directors held a telephonic special meeting, during which WTT's senior management and representatives of Greenberg Traurig advised the board as to the status of all negotiations concerning the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements and discussed various timing and logistical matters relating to the execution of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, the public announcement thereof and the filing with the SEC of revised preliminary proxy materials to reflect the revised transaction terms and conditions. Upon the recommendation of WTT's compensation committee, and after deliberation and consideration of factors the board of directors considered to be relevant under the circumstances, WTT's board of directors, with Mr. Simonyan abstaining, approved the grant to Mr. Simonyan of incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of WTT's common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of WTT's common stock on March 22, 2005, subject to the vesting schedule recommended by the compensation committee.

On March 23, 2005, revised sellers' schedules to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement were delivered by the Willtek Shareholders to WTT, and revised purchaser's schedules to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement were delivered by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders. On March 25, 2005, copies of Capitalink's updated financial analyses regarding the modified transaction and the prospects of Willtek and the combined company, and copies of the latest draft Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements, as revised, were circulated to each member of WTT's board of directors.

57




On March 29, 2005, WTT's compensation committee held an additional telephonic special meeting, during which the committee further discussed the vital role of Mr. Genova in the combined company's post-acquisition operational and financial integration, and their belief that Mr. Genova's continued service with the combined company following the acquisition was essential to enable the combined company to effectively carry out Willtek's operating cost reduction program and to realize financial and operational synergies as a result of the acquisition. After further discussion and deliberation as to specific terms to be contained in a severance agreement with Mr. Genova, the compensation committee unanimously determined that the severance agreement (the "Genova Severance Agreement") should provide that if Mr. Genova's employment is terminated by WTT without "cause," or if Mr. Genova terminates his employment for "good reason," whether before or after the acquisition, then Mr. Genova would be entitled to receive (1) at the sole discretion of WTT, either a lump-sum cash payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect, payable within 30 days after termination, or continuation of his base compensation then in effect for a period of nine months after termination, and (2) the continuation of all benefits in which he currently participates for a period of nine months following his termination. The committee then discussed how the terms "cause" and "good reason" should be defined in the Genova Severance Agreement. After further deliberation as to the advisability of entering into the Genova Severance Agreement, the compensation committee resolved to recommend to WTT's full board of directors at its next special meeting that it approve the execution of the Genova Severance Agreement.

Later that day, WTT's board of directors held a telephonic special meeting, with members of WTT's management team and representatives of Greenberg Traurig and Capitalink participating in, during which the board of directors considered the revised transaction terms as contemplated by the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements. During the meeting, representatives of Greenberg Traurig discussed the board's fiduciary duties under applicable law and the history of the negotiations leading to the most current draft of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related transaction agreements, as well as the material modifications made to the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements, including the following:

•  the acquisition consideration would be reduced by eliminating the $7.0 million cash component, and would consist solely of 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock (the "Acquisition Consideration");
•  the post-acquisition board representation of the Willtek Shareholders would be reduced from three directors (as originally agreed) to two directors designated by Investcorp, one of whom would be appointed Chairman of the Board;
•  Mr. Simonyan would not resign from WTT's board of directors as originally contemplated and, at the closing date of the acquisition, would be appointed non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board;
•  Willtek would be required to prepare, no later than April 30, 2005, a detailed comprehensive plan to permanently reduce its total annual operating expenses by approximately $3.0 million per year, which plan must be acceptable to WTT in its sole discretion, as a condition to closing the Acquisition;
•  the terms of the new loan agreement entered into on October 5, 2004 between Investcorp and Willtek would be revised to require payment of all outstanding indebtedness thereunder in one lump sum on December 31, 2006, as opposed to amortization payments in equal installments through June 30, 2008, and to reduce the interest rate thereon from 8% to 4% per year;
•  Investcorp would increase the term of its post-acquisition "lock-up" of its pro-rata portion of the stock consideration from six months to one year;
•  the demand and "piggyback" registration rights of the Willtek Shareholders would commence one year (as opposed to six months) after the closing date of the acquisition;
•  Investcorp would waive its right to receive cash dividends declared or set aside by WTT's board in respect of all its shares of WTT's common stock during the period beginning on the closing date of the acquisition and ending on December 31, 2005;

58




•  the date after which either WTT or the Willtek Shareholders may terminate the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement without cause would be extended from March 31, 2005 to August 15, 2005; and
•  the aggregate liability of the Willtek Shareholders for general and tax indemnification obligations to WTT, and WTT's aggregate liability for general and tax indemnification obligations to the Willtek Shareholders, in each case would be reduced from $7.0 million to $6.0 million.

Representatives of Greenberg Traurig then discussed with our board of directors certain information contained in the updated legal due diligence memorandum prepared by Nörr Stiefenofer which generally advised that based on updated information from representatives of Willtek, there were no material changes or developments relating to the business, operations or legal affairs of Willtek that would alter the information and analyses contained in the legal due diligence memorandum that Nörr Stiefenofer provided to the board in September 2004. Representatives of Greenberg Traurig then addressed in general the revisions that would be required to be made to WTT's preliminary proxy statement to reflect the new transaction terms and the SEC filing and review process relative thereto. The board determined that due to the proximity to WTT's upcoming 2005 annual meeting of shareholders, a separate special meeting to obtain approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance would not be necessary, and that a proposal to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance should be presented together with the election of WTT's directors at the 2005 annual meeting of WTT's shareholders. Messrs. Simonyan and Genova next presented management's presentation of the operational and financial outlook for WTT on a stand-alone basis and on a combined basis with Willtek, management's financial assessment of the benefits and risks of the proposed acquisition, as modified, the anticipated financial and operational impacts of the modified acquisition, technical post-closing integration strategies and anticipated cost synergies, giving effect to the proposed Willtek operating cost reduction plan, and updated conclusions concerning Willtek's financial condition, results of operations and prospects, based on additional financial information provided by Willtek. The board then discussed with management and Greenberg Traurig the timing and logistics for the preparation of Willtek's operating cost reduction plan under the terms of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, and discussed management's confidence in Willtek's ability to effectively implement an operating cost reduction plan that WTT's management would consider to be acceptable and feasible.

Capitalink next provided a detailed presentation to our board of directors as to certain financial elements of the proposed transaction, as modified, and an overview of WTT's and Willtek's financial condition. As described more fully in "Opinion of Capitalink, L.C.," Capitalink then presented, with respect to Willtek, its revised comparable company analysis, selected comparable transaction analysis and discounted cash flows analysis and other observations. Following a lengthy question and answer period and in response to board inquiries regarding the proposed transaction consideration, as modified, and further financial due diligence clarifications, representatives of Capitalink orally delivered to the board its opinion (subsequently confirmed in writing, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex B) to the effect that, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in its written opinion, as of March 29, 2005, the Acquisition Consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders.

After further deliberation as to the advisability of entering into the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements on the modified terms and conditions reviewed by and outlined to our board of directors by WTT's senior management, our board's understanding and review of all transaction documentation, as revised, and the risks and benefits of the transaction as proposed to be modified, and with the assistance and advice of its outside financial and legal advisors, our board of directors unanimously determined that the Acquisition and the Issuance are advisable and in the best interests of WTT and its shareholders, approved the Acquisition and the Issuance, approved the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, the Amended Loan Agreement, and the other related ancillary agreements in substantially the forms of the most recent drafts presented to and reviewed by our board with WTT's senior management and Greenberg Traurig, and resolved to recommend that WTT's shareholders vote affirmatively to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance at the upcoming 2005 annual meeting of WTT's shareholders to be duly convened as promptly as

59




practicable. In addition, upon the recommendation of WTT's compensation committee, and after deliberation and consideration of factors the board deemed to be relevant under the circumstances, WTT's board of directors, with Mr. Genova abstaining, approved the Genova Severance Agreement.

Later that day, the parties executed and delivered to each other counterpart signature pages to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the Amended Loan Agreement, WTT and Mr. Genova executed and delivered the Genova Severance Agreement, and WTT issued a press release announcing such events and the material modifications to the terms of the proposed acquisition of Willtek and filed such press release with the SEC, together with a Current Report on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act which also made publicly available the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and Amended Loan Agreement.

Reasons for the Acquisition

In reaching its decision to approve the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements and to approve the proposed acquisition, our board of directors met on several occasions, consulted with WTT's senior management and its financial and legal advisors, reviewed various materials and considered a number of factors, including the following:

•  information regarding Willtek and its subsidiaries, their historical financial performance, operating performance and management experience;
•  the views of WTT's senior management regarding Willtek and its subsidiaries and their integration with WTT;
•  the results of the due diligence investigation conducted by WTT's senior management and legal and financial advisors;
•  the structure and terms of the proposed acquisition and its potential effect on WTT shareholder value, including the following:
—  the number of shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the acquisition and the dilutive effect on WTT's current shareholders of the issuance at 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock in the acquisition;
—  the amount of cash to be paid to the Willtek Shareholders in the acquisition from WTT's existing working capital and the effect of such issuance on WTT's liquidity;
—  estimates of the capital and resources that will be required to complete the Acquisition and the integration of Willtek and its subsidiaries, resulting in a substantial reduction of WTT's cash reserves; and
—  the opinion of Capitalink, L.C. to WTT's board of directors stating that, as of September 27, 2004, the Original Acquisition Consideration to be paid by WTT in the Acquisition to the Willtek Shareholders was fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders, and the financial presentation made to WTT's board of directors in connection with the delivery of the opinion; and
•  the prospects of WTT on a stand-alone basis, as an alternative to pursuing the Acquisition.

As a result of its review of this information and consideration of these and other factors, WTT's board of directors determined that the acquisition of Willtek and the combination of its operations with WTT would strengthen our competitive position, based on anticipated potential benefits that include:

•  the addition of substantial incremental revenue and (following a reasonable period of post-closing integration) the potential for realizing additional operating income, which the board believes would enhance the combined company's future financial condition, results of operations and prospects;
•  the complementary nature of the markets, products, technologies and customers of WTT and Willtek, which the board believes should enable the combined company to more effectively execute its cross-selling strategies;

60




•  the more diversified product portfolio that will result from the combination of the companies' product lines, which the board believes should enable the combined company to attract a broader overall customer base in existing markets and in new markets;
•  the opportunity to accelerate revenue growth as a result of being able to offer a wider range of products to a larger customer base, which after a reasonable period of post-closing integration, the board believes would enhance the combined company's future financial condition, results of operations and prospects;
•  the potential ability of the combined entity to capitalize on complementary customer relationships and distribution channels, and to diversify the combined company's customers and end users of products;
•  the potential ability of the combined company to effectively develop new, state-of-the-art products and improve existing products by leveraging technologies and intellectual property;
•  the potential ability to realize global economies of scale and operating synergies related to:
—  the rationalization of the combined company's product development efforts by applying the same development activities to a broader range of products, potentially reducing research and development expenses as a percent of revenues;
—  the rationalization of operations at the combined company's facilities, potentially reducing operating expenses; and
—  the sale of more products to the same customers, potentially reducing sales and marketing expenses as a percent of revenues, all of which the board believes would enable the combined company to operate more efficiently than WTT does on a stand-alone basis;
•  the expansion of WTT's presence in Europe and Asia, which the board believes should stengthen the combined company's position in the overall international market;
•  the development of an international platform for future synergistic acquisitions, which the board believes will enable the combined company to continue pursuing growth opportunities in the future as and when attractive opportunities arise (although WTT does not have any plans, proposals, commitments or agreements to make any other acquisitions at this time);
•  the acquisition of important intellectual property, including certain patents and patent applications, which the board believes has the potential to form the basis for the development of new testing solutions for emerging wireless services and cellular networks; and
•  the strong management team in place at Willtek, with particular capabilities in the areas of marketing, engineering and operations, which the board believes should provide the combined company with the opportunity to expand its business without exceeding the capacity of the combined company's management to handle such growth.

WTT's board of directors also recognized a number of potential negative factors and risks and uncertainties inherent in the proposed acquisition, including:

•  the fact that Willtek has an extended history of operating losses, and that the combined company will incur significant integration costs and operating expenses in the months following completion of the acquisition; however, WTT's board believes that following a reasonable period of post-closing integration, with the anticipated significant increase in revenue as a result of the acquisition and anticipated future cost savings from the realization of global economies of scale and operational synergies, Willtek's financial performance should be significantly improved in the future, thereby positioning the combined company to capitalize on each of the potential benefits set forth above;
•  the risk that the dollar value of the total consideration we pay to acquire Willtek may increase, because the number of shares of our common stock to be issued in the acquisition will be fixed at 8,000,000 and will not be adjusted for any increases in the market value of our common stock prior to completion of the acquisition;

61




•  the fact that the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock in connection with the acquisition will result in immediate and substantial dilution to WTT's current shareholders;
•  the fact that the Willtek Shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of the combined company and will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders;
•  the risk that the acquisition may not be consummated;
•  the risk that some or all of the potential benefits of the acquisition may not be realized for a prolonged period of time, if at all;
•  the risk that WTT would not be successful in integrating the products, technologies and operations of the two businesses;
•  the risks associated with diverting management resources from day-to-day operational matters, as well as other strategic opportunities;
•  the risk of management and employee disruption associated with the acquisition, including the risk that, despite the efforts of management, key personnel may elect not to remain employed with the combined company;
•  the risk that acquisition and related integration activities may require more capital and other resources than anticipated, resulting in a greater and more accelerated reduction of WTT's cash reserves and other resources than originally anticipated, which could, among other things, significantly impair the combined company's ability to maintain its quarterly cash dividend policy and fund other strategic acquisitions (although WTT does not have any plans, proposals, commitments or agreements to make any other acquisitions at this time);
•  the risk that we may incur significant restructuring charges upon completion of the acquisition or in subsequent quarters for severance or relocation costs related to WTT's employees, which the board considered to be incident to the acquisition and not material in the context of the long-term business and financial benefits to be achieved by the acquisition;
•  the risk that we could incur substantial liability and expenses, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, if the Germany-based company that recently made the IP Allegations were to assert a claim of infringement against Willtek or the combined company after we have completed the acquisition; and
•  the other factors described in this proxy statement under the section titled "Risk Factors."

The foregoing discussion of the factors that WTT's board of directors considered is not intended to be exhaustive, but is intended to include the material factors considered by our board. WTT's board of directors did not find it practical to, and did not, quantify or otherwise assign relative weight to the specific factors considered, and individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. After considering the various factors, WTT's board of directors concluded that, on balance, the potential benefits of the proposed acquisition to WTT and its shareholders outweighed the potential negative factors and the risks associated with the acquisition and voted unanimously to approve the proposed acquisition, the Original Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements and to recommend that WTT's shareholders vote "FOR" approval of the proposed acquisition and the issuance of our common stock in the acquisition.

In reaching its decision to approve the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements, as modified, and to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance, our board of directors met again on several occasions and consulted with WTT's senior management and its financial and legal advisors. WTT's board reassessed each of the factors, potential benefits and potential negative factors and risks described above and reviewed additional materials and considered a number of additional factors, including:

62




•  additional financial analyses reflecting senior management's updated views regarding the operational and financial outlook for WTT on a stand-alone basis and on a combined basis with Willtek, the benefits and risks of the proposed transaction, as modified, the anticipated financial and operational impacts of the modified transaction, technical integration strategies and anticipated cost synergies, giving effect to Willtek's proposed operating cost reduction plan, and updated conclusions concerning Willtek's financial condition, results of operations and prospects, based on the additional financial information provided by Willtek;
•  senior management's views regarding Willtek's ability to effectively implement an operating cost reduction plan that WTT's management would consider to be acceptable and feasible;
•  the updated legal due diligence memorandum prepared by WTT's legal advisors which generally advised that based on updated information from representatives of Willtek, there were no material changes or developments relating to the business, operations or legal affairs of Willtek that would alter the information and analyses contained in the legal due diligence memorandum provided to the board in September 2004;
•  the modified terms of the transaction and its potential effect on WTT shareholder value, including the following:
—  the elimination of the $7.0 million cash component of the Original Acquisition Consideration, which the board believes will enable the combined company to conserve a substantial amount of its cash reserves;
—  the requirement that Willtek prepare a detailed comprehensive plan to permanently reduce its total annual operating expenses by approximately $3.0 million per year, which plan must be acceptable to WTT in its sole discretion, as a condition to closing the Acquisition, the successful implementation of which the board believes is critical to enable the combined company to operate Willtek more efficiently than Willtek presently operates on a stand-alone basis and, in turn, to realize financial and operational synergies as a result of the acquisition;
—  the revisions to the terms of the new loan agreement entered into on October 5, 2004 to require payment of all outstanding indebtedness thereunder in one lump sum on December 31, 2006, as opposed to amortization payments in equal installments through June 30, 2008, and to reduce the interest rate thereon from 8% to 4% per year, which the board believes are no less favorable than loan terms available from an independent third party;
—  Investcorp's agreement to waive its right to receive cash dividends declared or set aside by WTT's board in respect of all its shares of WTT's common stock during the period beginning on the closing date of the acquisition and ending on December 31, 2005, which the board believes will also enable the combined company to conserve its cash reserves; and
—  Investcorp's agreement to increase the term of its post-acquisition "lock-up" of its pro-rata portion of the stock consideration from six months to one year, which the board believes further aligns Investcorp's interests with those of WTT's current shareholders; and
•  the opinion of Capitalink, L.C. to WTT's board of directors (the full text of which is attached hereto as Annex B and which describes the assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken in connection with the opinion) stating that, as of March 29, 2005, the Acquisition Consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders, and the financial presentation made to WTT's board of directors in connection with the delivery of the opinion.

After reconsidering its original assessment of the proposed transaction, the updated financial analyses of WTT's senior management and the updated opinion and financial presentation of Capitalink, WTT's board of directors reaffirmed its conclusion that, on balance, the potential strategic

63




benefits of the Acquisition to WTT and its shareholders outweighed the potential negative factors and the risks associated with the Acquisition, and voted unanimously to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance, the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and related ancillary agreements, as modified, and to recommend that WTT's shareholders vote "FOR" approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance.

Vote Required and Recommendation of WTT's Board of Directors

After careful consideration, our board of directors unanimously has determined that the Acquisition and the Issuance are advisable and in the best interest of WTT and its shareholders and has unanimously approved the Acquisition and the Issuance. Accordingly, our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting is required to approve the Acquisition and the Issuance. If our shareholders do not approve the Acquisition and the Issuance, WTT will not be able to complete the Acquisition.

Opinion of Capitalink, L.C.

WTT's board of directors engaged Capitalink to render an opinion as to whether, on the date of such opinion, the consideration to be received by Willtek's shareholders in connection with the Acquisition is fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders. WTT selected Capitalink because Capitalink is an investment-banking firm with substantial experience in rendering fairness opinions in connection with transactions similar to the Acquisition.

On September 27, 2004, Capitalink made a presentation to WTT's board of directors setting forth its financial analyses regarding the proposed transaction and rendered its oral opinion that, as of such date, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in the opinion, the Original Acquisition Consideration to be paid by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders was fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders. Subsequently, Capitalink delivered its written opinion to that effect to WTT's board of directors. The form and amount of the Original Acquisition Consideration was determined through negotiations between WTT, Willtek and the Willtek Shareholders with SVB Alliant advising Willtek and the Willtek Shareholders in such negotiations.

On March 29, 2005, Capitalink made a further presentation to WTT's board of directors setting forth its updated financial analyses regarding the Acquisition and rendered its oral opinion that, as of such date, based upon and subject to the assumptions made, matters considered, and limitations on its review as set forth in the opinion, the Acquisition Consideration to be paid by WTT in the Acquisition to the Willtek Shareholders is fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders. Subsequently, Capitalink delivered its written opinion to WTT's board of directors to that effect. The form and amount of the Acquisition Consideration was determined through further negotiations between WTT, Willtek and the Willtek Shareholders with SVB Alliant advising Willtek and the Willtek Shareholders in such negotiations.

The full text of the written opinion of Capitalink, dated March 29, 2005, is attached as Annex B and is incorporated by reference into this proxy statement. WTT and Capitalink urge you to read the Capitalink opinion carefully and in its entirety for a description of the assumptions made, matters considered, procedures followed and limitations on the review undertaken by Capitalink in rendering its opinion. The summary of the Capitalink opinion set forth in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the opinion.

No limitations were imposed by WTT on the scope of Capitalink's investigation or the procedures to be followed by Capitalink in rendering its opinion. The Capitalink opinion was for the use and benefit of the board of directors of WTT in connection with its consideration of the Acquisition and was not intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of WTT as to how that shareholder should vote with respect to the Acquisition and the Issuance. Capitalink was not requested to opine as to, and its opinion does not address, WTT's underlying business decision to proceed with or effect the Acquisition. Further, Capitalink was not asked to consider, and its opinion

64




does not address, the relative merits of the Acquisition as compared to any alternative business strategy that might exist for WTT. Capitalink was not engaged to seek alternatives to the Acquisition that might exist for WTT.

In arriving at its opinion, dated March 29, 2005, Capitalink took into account an assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions as well as its experience in connection with similar transactions and securities valuations generally and, among other things:

•  reviewed the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement by and among WTT, Investcorp, Damany Holding, and Willtek (the "Agreement");
•  reviewed publicly available financial information and other data with respect to WTT, including WTT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, WTT's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, WTT's Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, dated April 22, 2004 and the revised preliminary proxy materials on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on March 7, 2005;
•  Reviewed other financial information and other data with respect to WTT, including a draft of WTT's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004;
•  reviewed financial information and other data with respect to Willtek, including the audited financial report for the year ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, and internal management financial statements for the eleven months ended February 28, 2005;
•  reviewed and analyzed the relative historical and projected financial performance and historical book value of assets of both WTT and Willtek and the combined company with expected synergy gains;
•  considered the historical financial results and present financial condition of each of WTT and Willtek;
•  reviewed certain publicly available information concerning the trading of, and the trading market for, the common stock of WTT;
•  reviewed and analyzed certain financial characteristics of companies that were deemed to have characteristics comparable to those of each of WTT and Willtek;
•  reviewed and analyzed certain financial characteristics of target companies in transactions where such target company was deemed to have characteristics comparable to those of WTT and Willtek;
•  reviewed and analyzed the free cash flows of each of WTT and Willtek and prepared a discounted cash flow analysis for each company;
•  reviewed and discussed with representatives of WTT and Willtek management certain financial and operating information furnished by them, including financial analyses with respect to their respective business and operations, as well as correspondence and analyses related to the IP Allegations;
•  inquired about and discussed the Acquisition and other matters related thereto with WTT and Willtek senior management and WTT's legal advisors; and
•  performed such other analyses and examinations as were deemed appropriate by Capitalink.

In arriving at its opinion, Capitalink relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information that was used without assuming any responsibility for any independent verification of any such information and have further relied upon the assurances of WTT and Willtek senior management that it is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make any such information inaccurate or misleading. With respect to the financial information utilized, Capitalink assumed that such information has been reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments, and that such information provides a reasonable basis upon which it could make its analysis and form an opinion. Capitalink did not make a physical inspection of the properties and facilities of WTT or Willtek and did not make or obtain any evaluations or appraisals of the assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise). Capitalink did not

65




attempt to confirm whether WTT and Willtek have good title to their respective assets. Capitalink assumed that the Acquisition will be consummated in a manner that complies in all respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, and all other applicable federal and state statues, rules and regulations. It is further assumed that the Acquisition will comply with all applicable German and other international laws, statutes, rules and regulations that are deemed applicable.

Capitalink's opinion is necessarily based upon market, economic and other conditions as they existed on, and could be evaluated as of, March 29, 2005. Accordingly, although subsequent developments may affect its opinion, Capitalink has not assumed any obligation to update, review or reaffirm its opinion.

The estimates contained in Capitalink's analyses and the ranges of valuations resulting from any particular analysis are not necessarily indicative of actual values or future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by such analyses. In addition, analyses relating to the value of businesses or securities do not necessarily purport to be appraisals or to reflect the prices at which businesses or securities actually may be sold. Accordingly, Capitalink's analyses and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty.

Certain non-public business and financial information relating to WTT and Willtek reviewed by Capitalink in connection with furnishing its opinion included projections and forecasts of the anticipated potential operating performance of both WTT and Willtek. These projections were prepared by WTT's and Willtek's senior management, respectively, for internal use only and were not prepared with a view to public disclosure or compliance with published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants regarding projections and financial forecasts. WTT and Willtek ordinarily do not provide confidentially to third parties or make available to the public internal management projections of the type provided to Capitalink in connection with its review of the Acquisition. In the view of WTT's and Willtek's respective management, the financial projections were prepared on a reasonable basis, reflect the best currently available estimates and judgments, and present, to the best of each management's knowledge and belief, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of each of WTT and Willtek at the time such projections were furnished to Capitalink. The projections are not guarantees of, or necessarily indicative of, any future performance of the combined company. The projections do not purport to present operations in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and neither the independent auditors of WTT nor the independent auditors of Willtek nor any other independent accountants have audited, reviewed, examined, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the financial projections contained herein, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the financial projections.

The financial projections necessarily involve risks and inherent uncertainties and are based upon a variety of assumptions relating to WTT's and Willtek's business, results of operations, industry performance, general business and economic conditions and other matters and are subject to significant contingencies, many of which are beyond WTT's and Willtek's control. Projections of this nature are inherently imprecise, and there can be no assurance that they are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revision based on actual experience and business developments. The assumptions made in preparing the projections may not prove to be accurate. It is, in fact, expected that there will be differences between actual and forecasted results, and actual results may be materially greater or less than those contained in the projections.

None of WTT, Willtek or any of their respective affiliates or representatives has made or makes any representation to any person regarding the ultimate performance of WTT, Willtek or the combined company compared to the information contained in the projections, and none of them has updated or otherwise revised (or intends to update or otherwise revise) the projections contained in this document to reflect circumstances existing after the date when made or to reflect the occurrence of future events even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections are shown to be in error. Neither WTT nor Willtek is under any obligation, and each expressly disclaims any obligation, to update or alter any of the projections contained herein.

66




Each of the analyses conducted by Capitalink was carried out in order to provide a different perspective on the Acquisition, and to enhance the total mix of information available. Capitalink did not form a conclusion as to whether any individual analysis, considered in isolation, supported or failed to support an opinion as to whether, on the date of such opinion, the consideration to be received by Willtek's shareholders in the Acquisition is fair, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders. Capitalink did not place any particular reliance or weight on any individual analysis, but instead concluded that its analyses, taken as a whole, supported its determination. Accordingly, Capitalink believes that its analyses must be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses or the factors it considered, without considering all analyses and factors collectively, could create an incomplete and misleading view of the process underlying the analyses performed by Capitalink in connection with the preparation of its opinion.

The financial reviews and analyses include information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand Capitalink's financial review and analyses, the tables must be read together with the text presented. The tables alone are not a complete description of the financial review and analyses and considering the tables alone could create a misleading or incomplete view of Capitalink's financial review and analyses.

Further, the summary of Capitalink's analyses described below is not a complete description of the analyses underlying Capitalink's opinion. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process involving various determinations as to the most appropriate and relevant methods of financial analysis and the application of those methods to the particular circumstances and, therefore, a fairness opinion is not readily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, Capitalink made qualitative judgments as to the relevance of each analysis and factors that it considered.

Valuation Overview.    Based upon a review of the historical and projected financial data and certain other qualitative data for WTT and Willtek, Capitalink utilized several valuation methodologies and analyses to determine a range of values for WTT and Willtek. Each of the analyses was then weighted to determine an overall indicated equity value range for WTT and Willtek. Capitalink placed less reliance on the comparable transactions analysis, as the method does not explicitly take into account future projected earnings and there were no meaningful earnings multiples generated. Capitalink weighted the discounted cash flow, comparable company and the comparable transaction analyses (all of which are discussed in more detail hereafter) 40%, 40% and 20%, respectively, in order to determine the indicated value of Willtek.

The range of indicated equity values per share for WTT was used to determine the value of the Acquisition Consideration, which, in turn, was compared with the range of equity values for Willtek. Capitalink noted that the indicated equity value range of Willtek was greater than the indicated Acquisition Consideration.


Indicated Value Summary ($000)
Acquisition Consideration $19,800 – $22,400
Equity Value of Willtek $22,300 – $28,400
               

WTT Financial Performance Analysis.    Capitalink undertook analyses of the historical financial data of WTT in order to understand and interpret its operating and financial performance and strength.

Capitalink reviewed WTT's historical financial data for the six fiscal years ended December 31, 2004. Revenue and earnings were adjusted to remove any unusual or extraordinary sources of revenue and expenses. The adjustments provide a more accurate portrayal of WTT's underlying earnings and financial performance. Capitalink noted the following:

•  WTT's revenue increased over the reviewed period – from approximately $13.2 million in FY1999 to $22.1 million in FY 2004. The increase was partly due to the acquisition of Microlab in December 2001 and the continued growth in WTT's sales from its Boonton and NoiseCom divisions.

67




•  WTT's normalized earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") ranged from approximately $2.3 million for FY1999 to approximately $5.0 million for FY2001. Normalized EBITDA for FY 2004 was approximately $3.5 million. Earnings for WTT have softened since FY2001 as a result of the general downturn in the economy and the overall weakness in the telecommunications market.
•  As of December 31, 2004, WTT had approximately $15.8 million in cash and equivalents. The majority of the cash arose from the sale of WTT's wireless and satellite communications test equipment business in 1999 for approximately $19.0 million. As of December 31, 2004, WTT's only debt outstanding was approximately $3.1 million related to a mortgage.
•  Since FY2001, WTT has continued to make dividend payments to its stockholders, which have increased in size from $0.04 per share in FY2001 to $0.09 per share for FY2004. WTT has continued to make quarterly dividend payments of $0.03 per share over the past year.

Market Performance Analysis.    Capitalink utilized a historical stock price analysis to review and compare WTT's stock performance to the general market indices and a selected comparable companies group. In addition, Capitalink reviewed the liquidity of WTT's common stock in the public trading markets.

Capitalink reviewed the daily closing market price and trading volume of WTT's common stock three periods: (1) twenty four months ended October 5, 2004; (2) twelve month period ended October 5, 2004; and (3) October 6, 2004 to March 24, 2005. Capitalink also compared the daily closing market price performance of WTT's common stock for each of the periods to both the comparable companies (as noted below) and the Russell 3000 Index. Capitalink calculated total trading volumes at various closing price ranges of WTT's common stock. In addition, the number of trading days, and the respective percentages, at certain trading volumes, was set forth.

Capitalink noted the following:

•  Over all three periods, the average daily number of shares traded remained between approximately 30,000 and approximately 37,000;
•  Prior to the public announcement of the proposed transaction on October 5, 2004, WTT's share price for the twenty four-month period ranged from a high of $3.57 to a low of $1.48;
•  WTT's average share price for the twenty four-month period, twelve-month period and period subsequent to the public announcement of the proposed transaction was $2.39, $2.82 and $2.77, respectively;
•  Over the twenty four-month period, WTT's common stock rose 54.4%, while the comparable companies index rose 106.2% and the Russell 3000 index rose 47.7%.

Willtek Financial Performance Analysis.    Capitalink undertook analyses of the historical financial data of Willtek in order to understand and interpret its operating and financial performance and strength.

Capitalink reviewed Willtek's historical financial data for the two fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and the eleven months ended February 28, 2005. Capitalink noted that financial results prior to FY2002 were not available, or on a comparable basis due to the significant difference in Willtek's organizational and ownership structure. The numbers in Willtek's financial statements were also expressed in euros and were converted into U.S. dollars using period daily average exchange rates for the profit and loss and cash flow data, and period-end exchange rates for balance sheet data. Revenue and earnings were adjusted to remove any unusual or extraordinary sources of revenue and expenses. The adjustments provide a more accurate portrayal of Willtek's underlying earnings and financial performance. Capitalink noted the following:

•  Revenue increased from approximately $22.5 million in FY2003, to approximately $25.7 million for FY2004, representing a 14% growth over the one-year period.

68




•  Revenue for Willtek is net of distribution margins. Willtek employs third-party distributors that claim a significant share of its potential margin. For FY2004, distributor margin represented approximately 13.8% of gross revenues.
•  Despite significant and robust revenue and growth, Willtek's normalized EBITDA remained negative throughout the review period and was approximately $(1.8) million in FY2004. EBITDA for the latest twelve months ended February 28, 2005 was approximately $(3.4) million. The losses partly arise from continued research and development expenditures, which totaled approximately $6.2 million for the latest twelve-month period ended February 28, 2005 (approximately 22.2% of total revenue). EBITDA is expected to improve significantly as new products enter the market.
•  As of December 31, 2004, Willtek had approximately $0.2 million in cash and equivalents and an approximately $5.9 million owing to stockholders (including approximately $5.3 million in loans and related accrued interest due FY2008, and approximately $600,000 in other payables).

Relative Contribution Analysis.    Capitalink reviewed and compared the relative historical and projected revenue and EBITDA performance for WTT and Willtek from FY2002 to projected FY2006. Capitalink also reviewed estimated synergy gains from the Acquisition expected for FY2005 and FY2006. Because WTT and Willtek have different financial year-end dates, the financial results for the years ended December 31 for WTT were compared with the financial results for the years ended March 31 in the following year for Willtek. Capitalink noted the following:

•  Although Willtek has over the last two years generated more revenue than WTT and is expected to continue to do so again in the future, unlike WTT, it did not generate positive earnings over this period. However, by FY2006 Willtek's earnings are expected to exceed those of WTT.
•  Both WTT and Willtek expect immediate synergy gains to arise from additional sales of WTT's products through Willtek's distribution lines (estimated to be at least $1.1 million in FY2005 and increase to approximately $3.5 million in FY2006).
•  Cost synergies are expected to arise from the closure of Willtek's Indianapolis, Indiana office, improved manufacturing efficiencies in WTT's Parsippany, New Jersey location and additional overhead reduction (estimated to total approximately $1.1 million in FY 2005 and approximately $2.3 million in FY 2006).
•  Although not quantified, additional synergies are anticipated through the continued sharing of product and distribution lines for both companies, and the joint development of new products.

Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.    A discounted cash flow analysis estimates value based upon a company's projected future free cash flow discounted at a rate reflecting risks inherent in its business and capital structure. Unlevered free cash flow represents the amount of cash generated and available for principal, interest and dividend payments after providing for ongoing business operations.

While the discounted cash flow analysis is the most scientific of the methodologies, it is dependent on projections and is further dependent on numerous industry-specific and macroeconomic factors. Utilizing projections provided by the respective management of WTT and Willtek, Capitalink determined the net present value of the unlevered free cash flows to determine the enterprise value for both WTT and Willtek. Capitalink then deducted net interest bearing debt to derive an indicated equity value for each company.

WTT

The projections provided by WTT's senior management show a strong continual increase in revenue between FY2004 and FY2007 from approximately $22.1 million to approximately $30.1 million. For the forecast period, WTT projects an increase in EBITDA from approximately $2.8 million for FY2004, to approximately $5.4 million for FY2007. Over the period, the EBITDA margin is expected to rise from 12.7% in FY2004, to 8.0% in FY2007. Capitalink noted that the average EBITDA margin for WTT between FY2000 and FY2002 was approximately 18.5%.

69




In order to arrive at a present value, Capitalink utilized discount rates ranging from 19.0% to 21.0%. This was based on an estimated weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") of 20.3% (based on WTT's weighted average cost of debt of 7.5% and 21.3% estimated cost of equity).

Capitalink presented a range of terminal values at the end of the forecast period utilizing three alternative methods including a range of terminal revenue multiples, terminal EBITDA multiples, and by applying a range of long term perpetual growth rates. Capitalink then determined enterprise values for WTT based on the three terminal value methodologies:

•  Utilizing revenue multiples of between 1.4 times and 1.6 times, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $31.0 million to approximately $36.2 million.
•  Utilizing EBITDA multiples of between 7.0 times and 9.0 times, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $28.4 million to approximately $36.5 million.
•  Utilizing perpetual growth rates of between 10.0% and 12.0%, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $25.8 million to approximately $40.0 million.

The total enterprise values above were then reduced by WTT's net debt of $(12.7) million (which includes $3.0 million in mortgage debt and approximately $15.8 million in cash on hand and from the assumed exercise of in the money ("ITM") options) to arrive at an indicated equity value range.

The equity value range was then divided by the total common stock equivalents of 17.6 million, which includes ITM options using the treasury stock method, to obtain a range of indicated equity value per share of between $2.34 and $2.86.

Willtek

The projections provided by Willtek's senior management show a strong continual increase in revenue between FY2005 and FY2008 from approximately $26.9 million to approximately $49.8 million. For the forecast period, Willtek's management projects an increase in EBITDA from approximately $(1.9) million for FY2005, to approximately $8.1 million for FY2008. Over the period, the EBITDA margin is expected to rise from 4.4% in FY2005 to 16.3% in FY2008.

In order to arrive at a present value, Capitalink utilized discount rates ranging from 28.0% to 30.0%. This was based on an estimated WACC of 28.8% (based on Willtek's weighted average cost of debt of 8.0% and 30.3% estimated cost of equity).

Capitalink determined enterprise values for Willtek based on the three terminal value methodologies summarized above:

•  Utilizing terminal revenue multiples of between 1.2 times and 1.4 times, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $28.9 million to approximately $35.0 million.
•  Utilizing terminal EBITDA multiples of between 7.0 times and 9.0 times, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $27.6 million to approximately $36.6 million.
•  Utilizing perpetual growth rates of between 16.5% and 18.0%, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated enterprise values from approximately $22.3 million to approximately $31.3 million.

The total enterprise values above were then adjusted for Willtek's net debt of $5.7 million (which includes $5.9 million in stockholder debt and approximately $0.2 million in cash on hand) to arrive at an indicated equity value range of between approximately $20.6 million and approximately $28.6 million. Capitalink weighted this indicated equity value range 40% in its determination of Willtek's overall indicated equity value range. As noted above, such overall indicated equity value range was compared to the Acquisition Consideration.

Selected Comparable Company Analysis.    Capitalink utilized the selected comparable company analysis, a market valuation approach, for the purposes of compiling guideline or comparable company statistics and developing valuation metrics based on prices at which stocks of similar companies are trading in a public market.

70




The selected comparable company analysis compares the trading multiples of WTT and Willtek with those of other publicly traded companies that are similar with respect to business model, operating sector, size and target customer base. The operations of WTT and Willtek are similar in many respects, including the industry (test measurement equipment), type of products they provide, distribution channels and target market. Capitalink utilized the same set of comparable companies for WTT and Willtek. Although some of the comparable companies selected may be more comparable to either WTT or Willtek, as opposed to the other, Capitalink felt the differences in the operations and valuation statistics were not significant enough to justify two separate sets of comparable companies.

Capitalink located nine companies that it deemed comparable to WTT and Willtek with respect to their industry sector and operating model. All of the comparable companies are classified under the standard industrial classification ("SIC") code 3825 (Instruments for Measuring and Testing of Electricity and Electrical).

The comparable companies utilized were: Agilent Technologies, Inc., Advantest Corporation, Aeroflex, Inc., Applied Signal Technology, Inc., Giga-tronics, Inc., Keithley Instruments, Inc., LeCroy Corporation, Tollgrade Communications, Inc., and Micronetics, Inc.

Capitalink reviewed certain financial information relating to WTT in the context of the corresponding financial information, ratios and public market multiples for the comparable companies. As of March 24, 2005, the enterprise value for the comparable companies ranged from approximately $19.9 million to approximately $9.8 billion and LTM revenue ranged from approximately $14.3 million to approximately $7.2 billion. In comparison, WTT had an enterprise value and LTM revenue of approximately $33.1 million and $22.6 million, respectively.

Market values were used to calculate multiples of LTM, current financial year ("CFY"), and next financial year ("NFY") earnings per share ("EPS"), common equity, and net tangible common equity, while enterprise values were used to calculate multiples of LTM, CFY and NFY revenue and EBITDA, and total assets. For comparison purposes, all operating profits including EBITDA were normalized to exclude unusual and extraordinary expenses or income.

Capitalink noted that the EBITDA margin for WTT of 17.2% for the LTM period ended September 30, 2004 was above the average of the comparable companies, the mean and median of which was 14.6% and 14.7%, respectively. A summary of the key multiples generated were as follows:


Comparable Company Multiples
  Low - High Mean WTT
Market Value Multiple                                    
LTM EPS   18.7x     -     60.6x     27.9x     15.1x

WTT

Capitalink selected an appropriate multiple range for WTT by examining the range indicated by the comparable companies and then applied this multiple range to WTT's LTM, CFY and NFY revenue and EBITDA. Capitalink expects WTT's valuation multiples to be below the average of the comparable companies due its smaller size (which limits its ability to gain economies of scale

71




advantages with respect to research and development, corporate costs and distribution costs), its slow historical revenue and earnings growth, and management turnover. Capitalink selected the following multiple ranges for WTT:

•  Between 1.50 and 1.60 times LTM revenue.
•  Between 1.25 and 1.35 times CFY revenue.
•  Between 1.05 and 1.15 times NFY revenue.
•  Between 9.0 and 10.0 times LTM EBITDA.
•  Between 7.5 and 8.5 times CFY EBITDA.
•  Between 6.5 and 7.5 times NFY EBITDA.

Based on the selected multiple ranges, Capitalink calculated a range of enterprise values for WTT. After deducting net interest bearing debt of approximately $(12.7) million, and dividing by approximately 17.6 million shares outstanding (including ITM options using the treasury stock method), Capitalink calculated a range of indicated equity values per share of between $2.53 and $2.72.

Willtek

Capitalink selected an appropriate multiple range for Willtek by examining the range indicated by the comparable companies and then applied this multiple range to Willtek's LTM, CFY and NFY revenue and CFY and NFY EBITDA. Capitalink expects Willtek's valuation multiples to be below the average of the comparable companies due its smaller size (which limits its ability to gain economies of scale advantages with respect to research and development, corporate costs and distribution costs), and lack of positive earnings history. However, the future anticipated growth of Willtek's revenue and earnings suggest a slightly higher range of EBITDA multiples as compared with WTT. The revenue multiples for Willtek are expected to be lower than for WTT due to its negative earnings history. Capitalink selected the following multiple ranges for Willtek:

•  Between 1.10 and 1.20 times LTM revenue.
•  Between 0.90 and 1.00 times CFY revenue.
•  Between 0.80 and 0.90 times NFY revenue.
•  Between 8.0 and 10.0 times CFY EBITDA.
•  Between 6.0 and 8.0 times NFY EBITDA.

Based on the selected multiple ranges, Capitalink calculated a range of enterprise values for Willtek. After deducting net interest bearing debt of approximately $5.7 million, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated equity values of between approximately $22.3 million and approximately $27.0 million. Capitalink weighted this indicated equity value range 40% in its determination of Willtek's overall indicated equity value range. As noted above, such overall indicated equity value range was compared to the Acquisition Consideration.

An analysis of publicly traded comparable companies is not mathematical; rather it involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics of the comparable companies and other factors that could affect the public trading of the comparable companies.

Selected Comparable Transaction Analysis. Capitalink utilized the selected comparable transaction analysis, a market valuation approach, for the purposes of compiling precedent or comparable transaction statistics and developing valuation metrics based on the pricing in such transactions.

Information is typically not disclosed for transactions involving a private seller, even when the buyer is a public company, unless the acquisition is deemed to be "material" for the acquiror. As a result, the selected comparable transaction analysis is limited to transactions involving the acquisition

72




of a public company, or substantially all of its assets, or the acquisition of a large private company, or substantially all of its assets, by a public company.

As in the comparable companies analysis, Capitalink utilized the same set of comparable transactions for WTT and Willtek. Capitalink located seventeen transactions announced since January 2001 involving target companies in related industries to WTT and Willtek (the "Comparable Transactions") and for which detailed financial information was available. Target companies were classified under the SIC code 3825 (Instruments for Measuring and Testing of Electricity and Electrical).

Capitalink divided the Comparable Transactions into two groups: (i) transactions announced after January 2003 and (ii) all transactions. Capitalink noted that the mean revenue multiple was higher for transactions announced after January 2003, possibly because many of the transactions that took place prior to that date were completed when the industry was facing a significant downturn.

WTT

Capitalink determined a range of indicated enterprise values for WTT by selecting a range of valuation multiples based on the comparable transactions, and then applied them to WTT's LTM revenue. As with the comparable company analysis, WTT's unique characteristics, smaller size, lower growth and management issues would suggest that WTT be valued below the average of the comparable transaction multiples. Taking into account those factors, Capitalink selected an appropriate multiple range for WTT between 1.50 and 1.70 times LTM revenue.

Based on the selected multiple ranges, Capitalink calculated a range of enterprise values. After deducting net interest bearing debt of approximately $(12.7) million and dividing by approximately

73




17.580 million shares outstanding (including ITM options using the treasury stock method), Capitalink calculated a range of indicated equity values per share of between $2.61 and $2.86.

Willtek

Capitalink determined a range of indicated enterprise values for Willtek by selecting a range of valuation multiples based on the comparable transactions, and then applied them to Willtek's LTM revenue. As with the comparable company analysis, Willtek's unique characteristics, smaller size and negative earnings history would suggest that Willtek be valued slightly below the average of the comparable transaction multiples. Capitalink selected an appropriate multiple range for Willtek between 1.20 and 1.40 times LTM revenue.

Based on the selected multiple ranges, Capitalink calculated a range of enterprise values. After deducting net interest bearing debt of approximately $5.7 million, Capitalink calculated a range of indicated equity values of between approximately $25.6 million and approximately $30.8 million. Capitalink weighted this indicated equity value range 20% in its determination of Willtek's overall indicated equity value range. As noted above, such overall indicated equity value range was compared to the Acquisition Consideration.

None of the comparable transactions are identical to the Acquisition. Accordingly, an analysis of comparable business combinations is not mathematical; rather it involves complex considerations and judgments concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics of the target companies in the comparable transactions and other factors that could affect the respective acquisition values.

Capitalink performed a variety of financial and comparative analyses for the purpose of rendering its opinion. While the foregoing summary describes all material analyses and factors reviewed by Capitalink with WTT's board of directors, it does not purport to be a complete description of the presentations by Capitalink or the analyses performed by Capitalink in arriving at its opinion. The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In addition, Capitalink may have given various analyses more or less weight than other analyses, and may have deemed various assumptions more or less probable than other assumptions, so that the range of valuations resulting from any particular analysis described above should not be taken to be Capitalink's view of the actual value of WTT and Willtek. In performing its analyses, Capitalink made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance, general business and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of WTT and Willtek. The analyses performed were prepared solely as part of Capitalink's analysis of the fairness of the Acquisition Consideration to be received by Willtek's shareholders in the Acquisition, from a financial point of view, to WTT's shareholders, and were provided to WTT's board of directors in connection with the delivery of Capitalink's opinion, dated March 29, 2005.

Capitalink received a fee of $42,500 in cash in connection with the preparation and issuance of its opinion dated March 29, 2005, and previously received a fee of $85,000 in cash in connection with the preparation and issuance of its opinion dated September 27, 2004, which was delivered to WTT's board of directors in connection with the execution of the Original Stock Purchase Agreement in October 2004. In addition, WTT has agreed to reimburse Capitalink for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements incurred in connection with its engagement and to indemnify Capitalink and certain related parties against certain liabilities that may arise out of the rendering of the opinion. Capitalink was not engaged by WTT to provide any financial advisory or other services other than the preparation and issuance of the foregoing opinions, and Capitalink is not entitled to any fee dependent on the completion of the Acquisition. Capitalink is an investment banking firm that, as part of its investment banking business, regularly is engaged in the evaluation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers, acquisitions, corporate restructurings, private placements, and for other purposes. Capitalink does not beneficially own any interest in WTT or Willtek. During the past two years, other than Capitalink's engagement by WTT in connection with the Acquisition as described herein, there has not been any material relationship between Capitalink, its affiliates or any unaffiliated representative of Capitalink, on the one hand, and WTT or its affiliates, on the other hand.

74




Absence of Dissenter's or Appraisal Rights

WTT is incorporated under New Jersey law and is subject to the New Jersey Business Corporation Act. Dissenter's or appraisal rights are statutory rights that enable shareholders who object to extraordinary transactions (those not done in the ordinary course of business) to demand that a corporation pay the value for their shares as determined by a court in a judicial proceeding instead of receiving the consideration offered to shareholders in connection with the extraordinary transaction. Dissenter's or appraisal rights are not available in all circumstances, and exceptions to such rights are set forth in the New Jersey Business Corporation Act. These exceptions are applicable with respect to the rights of WTT's shareholders with regard to the Acquisition. WTT's shareholders are not entitled to dissenter's or appraisal rights under the New Jersey Business Corporation Act in connection with the Acquisition because WTT's common stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange, a national securities exchange. Accordingly, we will not make special provisions for shareholders to enforce such rights.

Directors and Executive Officers of WTT Following Completion of the Acquisition

Following the completion of the Acquisition, WTT's board of directors will consist of seven members. Although Paul Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, has been nominated for election to our board of directors at the annual meeting (see "Proposal 2: Election of Directors" beginning on page 116), if the Acqusition is completed (which we presently anticipate will occur on or about July 1, 2005, assuming all of the other conditions to completion of the acquisition have been satisfied or waived), Mr. Genova (if reelected at the annual meeting) will resign from WTT's board of directors at the closing of the Acquisition (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of WTT at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors following completion of the Acquisition). Under the terms of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the related shareholders' agreement, at the closing of the Acquisition, the remaining five members of WTT's board of directors will then appoint two individuals designated by Investcorp to fill two vacancies on WTT's board of directors (one of which will exist as a result of Mr. Genova's resignation and one of which has existed since the mutual termination of Terence McCoy's employment as Chief Executive Officer of WTT and his departure from WTT's board in July 2004), each to serve as a director of WTT until the next annual meeting of WTT's shareholders or until his successor is duly elected and qualified. Investcorp has designated Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, each of whom is a partner of Investcorp, to be appointed to serve as directors on WTT's board commencing at the closing of the Acquisition. Mr. Tung will be designated as Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition. Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, WTT's current Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will be designated as non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition.

Accordingly, assuming the reelection of each of the nominees named in this proxy statement as a director of WTT at the annual meeting, upon the completion of the Acquisition, it is expected that WTT's board of directors will consist of the following seven members: Henry L. Bachman, John Wilchek, Michael Manza, Andrew Scelba and Karabet Simonyan, each of whom is currently a member of WTT's board of directors, and Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, each of whom will be appointed by WTT's board to serve as directors of WTT commencing at the closing of the Acquisition. Pursuant to the terms of the shareholders' agreement to be entered into by WTT and the Willtek Shareholders at the closing of the Acquisition, at each annual or special meeting of WTT's shareholders at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to WTT's nominating committee up to two candidates for election to WTT's board of directors, for so long as Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds, and the Willtek Shareholders will be obligated to vote all of their shares of WTT's common stock for the election of Investcorp's director nominees and for the election of each of the other director candidates nominated by WTT's board of directors, subject to certain exceptions. For additional information concerning Investcorp's rights to designate director candidates for nomination and the voting obligations of the Willtek Shareholders, please see "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Shareholders' Agreement" beginning on page 94.

75




The management of WTT after completion of the Acquisition will remain unchanged, except that at the closing of the Acquisition, Cyrille Damany will be appointed by WTT's board of directors to serve as the new Chief Executive Officer of WTT, replacing Mr. Simonyan, who has served as interim Chief Executive Officer since the mutual termination of Mr. McCoy's employment as Chief Executive Officer of WTT in July 2004.

Set forth below is certain information concerning the two Investcorp designees who will be appointed to serve on WTT's board of directors at the closing of the Acquisition.

Savio W. Tung, age 54, will be appointed to serve as Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition. Mr. Tung is the global head of Investcorp's venture capital activities. Mr. Tung is a member of Investcorp's Investment Commitment Committee and he is also a member of Investcorp's Financial Risk Management Committee. Before joining Investcorp in 1984, Mr. Tung was a senior banker with Chase Manhattan Bank and worked at their offices in New York, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and London. Prior to forming Investcorp's venture capital activities, Mr. Tung was the head of Investcorp's U.S. private equity team. Mr. Tung is currently chairman of Vaultus, Inc., and a board member of ObjectStar Inc. and Viewlocity Inc. Mr. Tung holds a BSc in Chemical Engineering from Columbia University. Mr. Tung is a trustee of Columbia University and is on the board of the Columbia Investment Management Company.

Hazem Ben-Gacem, age 34, will be appointed to serve as a director of WTT at the closing of the Acquisition. Mr. Ben-Gacem has been a partner of Investcorp's venture team in Europe since its inception in early 2001. Mr. Ben-Gacem currently sits on the boards of Utimaco Safeware AG and Objectstar plc. Prior to that, Mr. Ben-Gacem was a member of Investcorp's European private equity team since 1994. Prior to joining Investcorp, Mr. Ben-Gacem was a member of Credit Suisse First Boston's Mergers & Acquisitions team in New York. Mr. Ben-Gacem is a graduate of Harvard University where he received a B.A. in Economics with honors.

WTT has no reason to believe that either of the above individuals will be unable to serve as a director of WTT. There is no family relationship between any of the current directors or executive officers of WTT and the individuals designated to become such following the completion of the Acquisition. Our board of directors has determined that all of WTT's current directors who, if reelected at the annual meeting, will continue to serve as directors of WTT after the completion of the Acquisition, except Mr. Simonyan, are currently "independent" in accordance with the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, when Mr. Simonyan resigns as interim Chief Executive Officer of WTT, Mr. Simonyan will at that time also be considered independent under the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange. Due to Messrs. Tung's and Ben-Gacem's affiliation with Investcorp and, following completion of the Acquisition, Investcorp's substantial ownership of WTT's common stock and significant business relationship with the combined company by virtue of the Amended Loan Agreement, neither Mr. Tung nor Mr. Ben-Gacem will be independent under such standards. Accordingly, upon the closing of the Acquisition, it is anticipated that all of WTT's directors, except Messrs. Tung and Ben-Gacem, will be independent under the applicable rules of the American Stock Exchange. For certain information concerning each of WTT's current directors who are expected to continue to serve as directors of WTT after completion of the Acquisition, please see "Proposal 2: Election of Directors" beginning on page 116.

Set forth below is certain information concerning Cyrille Damany, who will be appointed to serve as WTT's Chief Executive Officer at the closing of the Aquisition.

Cyrille Damany, age 45, will be appointed to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of WTT at the closing of the Acquisition. Mr. Damany is a French citizen and lives in Munich, Germany. He has been the Chief Executive Officer and General Manager of Willtek for the past seven years since August 1997. He has more than 10 years of experience in the telecom industry. He has held management position responsibilities at Hewlett Packard France and Motorola. He was previously director of operations for Motorola European Paging Division, based in Frankfurt (Germany). Cyrille holds a Master of Science degree in Electronic and Automation, an advanced degree in the design of

76




information systems (DEA) from Orsay, Paris Science University and an MBA from Carnegie Mellon University (Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, USA).

Directors and Executive Officers of Willtek Following Completion of the Acquisition

Following completion of the Acquisition, all of the current members of Willtek's and its subsidiaries' advisory boards or boards of directors, as applicable, except Cyrille Damany, will cease serving in such capacities, and WTT will elect Paul Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, to serve as a member of such advisory boards or boards of directors, to serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

Following completion of the Acquisition, it is presently expected that all of the current executive officers of Willtek and its subsidiaries will continue to serve in such capacities.

Interests of WTT's Executive Officers and Directors in the Acquisition

When considering the recommendation of WTT's board of directors with respect to the Acquisition and the Issuance, you should be aware that Mr. Simonyan, WTT's Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Genova, WTT's President and Chief Operating Officer, have pecuniary interests in the Acquisition that are materially different from, or that are in addition to, the interests of our shareholders. Accordingly, Messrs Simonyan and Genova may have potential conflicts of interest and may not be deemed to be disinterested with respect to their approval and recommendation of the acquisition in their capacity as directors of our company.

As a result of the substantial changes that will be made to the composition of our board of directors and to our senior management team upon completion of the Acquisition, our compensation committee took the opportunity to evaluate senior executive employment, severance and compensation arrangements and determined that the below arrangements were appropriate in light of Messrs. Simonyan's and Genova's relative contributions to WTT. All arrangements relating to the Acquisition presenting potential conflicts of interest for Messrs. Simonyan and Genova were thoroughly reviewed by WTT's compensation committee, which approved such arrangements individually, and were thoroughly reviewed by each of WTT's independent directors, who approved such arrangements as part of their overall approval of the Acquisition and the Issuance, as described in "—Background of the Acquisition" and "—Reasons for the Acquisition" above.

Genova Severance Agreement

With respect to Mr. Genova, WTT's compensation committee believed that Mr. Genova's continued service with the combined company following the Acquisition was essential to enable the combined company to effectively carry out Willtek's operating cost reduction program and to realize financial and operational synergies as a result of the Acquisition. WTT's compensation committee also took into consideration the fact that Mr. Genova presently does not have an employment agreement with WTT. Accordingly, WTT's compensation committee believed it to be appropriate to provide Mr. Genova with reasonable incentives for his future contributions to WTT, and that WTT should enter into the Genova Severance Agreement. Upon the recommendation of WTT's compensation committee and after deliberation and consideration of factors deemed to be relevant under the circumstances, WTT's board of directors, with Mr. Genova abstaining, approved the Genova Severance Agreement, which was executed on March 29, 2005.

The Genova Severance Agreement provides that if Mr. Genova's employment is terminated by WTT without "cause," or if Mr. Genova terminates his employment for "good reason," then Mr. Genova will be entitled to receive, (1) at the sole discretion of WTT, either a lump-sum cash payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect (which, based on Mr. Genova's current annual base compensation, would be approximately $135,000), payable within 30 days after termination, or continuation of his base compensation then in effect for a period of nine months after termination, and (2) the continuation of all benefits, to the extent permissible under the applicable employee benefit programs, in which he currently participates for a period of nine months following his termination. If Mr. Genova obtains subsequent employment during such nine-month period and, if he receives benefits through such subsequent employment, WTT may terminate his continuing benefits.

77




Under the terms of the Genova Severance Agreement,

•  "cause" means the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) fraud, embezzlement and /or misappropriation of WTT's (or any successor's) funds; (ii) gross or willful misconduct by Mr. Genova in the performance of his duties; (iii) a material violation of WTT's (or any successor's) Code of Conduct; or (iv) a conviction by, or entry or a plea of guilty or nolo contendre in, a court of competent jurisdiction for any crime which constitutes a felony or act or moral turpitude in the jurisdiction involved; and
•  "good reason" means (i) the assignment to Mr. Genova of duties materially and adversely inconsistent with the position, titles, offices, duties, responsibilities or status as an officer of WTT, (ii) any removal of Mr. Genova from, or any failure to re-elect Mr. Genova as an officer of WTT, (iii) a reduction in Mr. Genova's salary, or (iv) relocation of Mr. Genova's principal place of employment to a place more than 30 miles from its current location, in each case without Mr. Genova's written consent.

Simonyan Incentive Stock Options

With respect to Mr. Simonyan, WTT's compensation committee believed that to provide Mr. Simonyan with appropriate incentives for his future contributions to WTT and his commitment to remain on WTT's board of directors following the completion of the Acquisition and to serve as non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board, the board should grant Mr. Simonyan incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price equal to the closing price of WTT's common stock on the date of grant, which options would vest ratably for a period of three years from the date of grant. Upon the recommendation of WTT's compensation committee, and after deliberation and consideration of factors deemed to be relevant under the circumstances, WTT's board of directors, with Mr. Simonyan abstaining, approved the grant to Mr. Simonyan of incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of WTT's common stock, at an exercise price of $2.57 per share, representing the closing price of WTT's common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on March 22, 2005, the date of grant. The options will vest over a period of three years from the date of grant, with one third vesting on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

Except as set forth above, none of our directors or executive officers or any of their respective associates has any direct or indirect interest in the Acquisition.

Past Contacts, Transactions or Negotiations

Other than as described under "—Background of the Acquisition" or elsewhere in this proxy statement:

•  there have been no past contacts, transactions or negotiations between WTT or, to the best of WTT's knowledge, any of its directors, executive officers, control persons or other affiliates on the one hand, and Willtek, Investcorp, Damany Holding or any of their respective directors, executive officers, control persons or other affiliates, on the other hand, concerning a merger, consolidation or acquisition, a tender offer or other acquisition of securities, an election of directors, or a sale or other transfer of a material amount of assets; and
•  neither WTT nor, to the best of WTT's knowledge, any of its directors, executive officers, control persons or other affiliates is a party to any present or proposed material agreement, arrangement or transaction, or otherwise has any understanding or relationship with Willtek, Investcorp, Damany Holding or any of their respective officers, directors, control persons or other affiliates that would require disclosure herein under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Acquisition Consideration to be Received By Executive Officers and Advisory Board Members of Willtek

Cyrille Damany, the Chief Executive Officer of Willtek and a member of Willtek's advisory board, owns all of the outstanding share capital of Damany Holding. Damany Holding holds one share of

78




Willtek in the nominal amount of €22,910, or 19.1% of the outstanding share capital of Willtek. In the Acquisition, Damany Holding will receive 1,527,333 shares of our common stock as its pro-rata portion of the Acquisition Consideration. At the closing of the Acquisition, 1,336,417 of such shares will be issued directly to Damany Holding, and 190,917 of such shares will be deposited into an escrow account for a one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition to secure the indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. At the end of such one-year period, any of such escrowed shares that have not been used to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by WTT will be delivered to Damany Holding.

Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, both members of Willtek's advisory board, are partners of Investcorp. Investcorp holds one share of Willtek in the nominal amount of €35,890 and one share of Willtek in the nominal amount of €61,200, or 80.9% of the outstanding share capital of Willtek. In the Acquisition, Investcorp will receive 6,472,667 shares of our common stock as its pro-rata portion of the Acquisition Consideration. At the closing of the Acquisition, 5,663,583 of such shares will be issued directly to Investcorp, and 809,083 of such shares will be deposited into an escrow account for a one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition to secure the indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. At the end of such one-year period, any of such escrowed shares that have not been used to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by WTT will be delivered to Investcorp.

Retention Payment

If the Acquisition is completed by September 30, 2005, Eckehard Mielke, Willtek's Chief Financial Officer, will receive a retention payment of €60,000 (approximately $77,000), which will be paid in four equal installments at the end of each consecutive calendar quarter beginning at the end of the calendar quarter in which the Acquisition is completed, provided that Mr. Mielke remains employed by Willtek at the date each installment is payable. This retention payment is payable in addition to all other payments and benefits that Mr. Mielke is entitled to as Chief Financial Officer of Willtek. No other executive officers or members of the advisory board of Willtek or any of its subsidiaries will receive any retention or other payment or bonus in connection with the Acquisition.

Accounting Treatment and U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

For financial reporting purposes, the Acquisition will be treated as an acquisition of Willtek by WTT, as the acquiring company. The Acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the Acquisition Consideration will be allocated to tangible and intangible assets of Willtek acquired and the liabilities of Willtek assumed, on the basis of their fair values as of the Acquisition date in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations, and the results of Willtek's operations will be included in WTT's consolidated financial statements from the date of the Acquisition. Allocation of the Acquisition Consideration has been made on a preliminary basis and is subject to adjustments. The excess of the Acquisition Consideration over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired (goodwill) will be subject to a review for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or circumstances occur which indicate that goodwill might be impaired, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

The Acquisition is not a taxable event for WTT or its shareholders.

Securities Act Exemptions; Resales of WTT's Common Stock by the Willtek Shareholders

The 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition will be issued by WTT pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Accordingly, such shares may not be resold, unless such resales are accomplished:

•  in transactions that are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws; or
•  pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

79




In addition to the above restrictions under U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws, the shareholders' agreement to be executed by the parties at the closing of the Acquisition (in the form of Annex C attached hereto) will provide for additional restrictions on the transfer of the shares of WTT's common stock received by the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition, including the following:

•  Investcorp may not transfer any of its shares of WTT's common stock during the one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition, and Damany Holding may not transfer any of its shares of WTT's common stock during the six-month period following the closing date of the Acquisition, in each case except for certain transfers to permitted transferees; and
•  without the prior written approval of a majority of the members of WTT's board of directors (excluding any Investcorp director nominee), the Willtek Shareholders may not transfer any shares of WTT's common stock to certain specified direct competitors of WTT without first offering WTT the opportunity to purchase such shares on the same terms and conditions. For additional information on the restrictions to be imposed by the shareholders' agreement, please see "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Shareholders' Agreement."

All certificates representing such 8,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock will bear an appropriate restrictive legend indicating that such shares are subject to restrictions pursuant to the shareholders' agreement and that such shares were not issued in a transaction registered under the Securities Act. We have agreed to grant the Willtek Shareholders two demand and certain incidental or "piggyback" registration rights covering such shares, which rights are set forth in the shareholders' agreement to be executed at the closing of the Acquisition and will become exercisable after the one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition. For additional information on the registration rights we will grant to the Willtek Shareholders, please see "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Shareholders' Agreement."

Regulatory Filings Required in Connection with the Acquisition

The Acquisition is subject to German antitrust laws and thereby subject to the approval of the German Federal Cartel Office. German antitrust laws required Investcorp and WTT to make certain filings with the German Federal Cartel Office, which Investcorp and WTT made on February 17, 2005. The parties received clearance of the Acquisition by the German Federal Cartel Office on March 16, 2005.

Although clearance has been obtained from the German Federal Cartel Office, any U.S. federal or state or any foreign governmental entity or any private person may challenge the Acquisition at any time before its completion.

Other than required filings with German regulatory authorities under German antitrust laws, and required filings by WTT under the Exchange Act relating to the Acquisition and the Issuance, including the filing of this proxy statement with the SEC pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act and clearance of this proxy statement by the SEC, we are not aware of any other U.S. federal or state or foreign regulatory requirements or approvals that must be complied with or obtained in connection with the Acquisition.

We will file an application for the listing on the American Stock Exchange of the 8,000,000 shares of our common stock to be issued in connection with the Acquisition. Such listing will become effective upon official notice of issuance of such shares.

THE AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This section of the proxy statement provides a summary of all material provisions of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, but it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. We urge you to carefully read the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and attached hereto as Annex A.

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement has been attached to this proxy statement to provide you with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about WTT or Willtek. Such information can be found elsewhere in this proxy statement and in other public filings WTT makes with the SEC, which are available without charge at www.sec.gov.

The Acquisition

Pursuant to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, WTT will acquire all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek from the Willtek Shareholders. As a result of the Acquisition, Willtek will become a wholly owned subsidiary of WTT and will serve as the base of our European operations.

Timing of Completion of the Acquisition

We expect to complete the Acquisition on or about July 1, 2005. However, because the Acquisition is subject to certain approvals and other conditions, we cannot predict exactly when the closing will occur.

Acquisition Consideration

In exchange for all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek, the Willtek Shareholders will receive an aggregate of 8,000,000 newly issued shares of WTT's common stock. We have also agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp equal to €3.5 million (approximately $4.6 million), representing the outstanding indebtedness under an existing loan agreement between Investcorp and Willtek, plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the Acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). Based on the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on May 5, 2005, the record date for the annual meeting, immediately following completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders will own in the aggregate approximately 31.4% of our outstanding common stock on a primary basis, with Investcorp owning approximately 25.4% and Damany Holding owning approximately 6.0%.

Based on the $2.50 closing price of a share of WTT's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on May 6, 2005, the last trading day prior to the date of this proxy statement, the dollar value of the Acquisition Consideration is approximately $20.0 million. This amount does not represent the value of the Acquisition for financial accounting purposes. The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement does not provide for an adjustment in the number of shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition in the event of a fluctuation in the market price of WTT's common stock prior to completion of the Acquisition. Therefore, depending on the market price of WTT's common stock on the closing date of the Acquisition, the actual dollar value of the Acquisition Consideration may be less or more than the $20.0 million amount referenced above.

Escrow

1,000,000, or 12.5%, of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued as the Acquisition Consideration will be deposited into an escrow account with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, in accordance with the terms of an indemnification escrow agreement that we will enter into with the Willtek Shareholders and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company at the closing of the Acquisition. Such shares will be held in escrow for one year following the closing date of the Acquisition to secure the indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. If WTT is entitled to indemnification from the Willtek

81




Shareholders under the terms of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, during the one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition, WTT must first proceed against the 1,000,000 shares held in escrow before it can seek monetary damages directly from the Willtek Shareholders. For purposes of calculating the number of escrowed shares deliverable to WTT with respect to a valid claim for indemnification, the value of each escrowed share shall be equal to the numerical average of the closing price of WTT's common stock on the American Stock Exchange for the ten trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the date that notification of a claim for indemnification is made under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. At the end of such one-year period, any of such escrowed shares that have not been used to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by WTT will be delivered to the Willtek Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the indemnification escrow agreement.

Senior Management Succession, Board Composition Changes and Significant Shareholder Influence

In connection with the Acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of WTT's board and senior management team. At closing, Kabaret "Gary" Simonyan, our Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will resign as interim Chief Executive Officer and Cyrille Damany, Willtek's current Chief Executive Officer, will succeed Mr. Simonyan as our new Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, Mr. Damany will be the principal executive officer of the combined company and, as such, will have general and active managerial control of the day-to-day policies and affairs of the combined company and will be primarily responsible for ensuring the execution of management's business strategies for the combined company, subject to oversight by our board of directors. Paul Genova, our current President and Chief Financial Officer, will continue as such and report directly to Mr. Damany following completion of the Acquisition.

Moreover, as described elsewhere in this proxy statement, two designees of Investcorp, the 80.9% shareholder of Willtek, will be appointed to our seven-member board of directors at the closing of the Acquisition, one of whom will be appointed Chairman of the Board. At each annual meeting following the closing, Investcorp will have the right to designate to WTT's nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our board of directors, for so long as Investcorp retains a requisite percentage beneficial ownership of WTT's outstanding common stock.

Although the Acquisition is structured for accounting and financial reporting purposes as a purchase of Willtek's outstanding share capital by WTT, as a result of the foregoing chief executive succession, board composition changes, and the Willtek Shareholders' significant post-acquisition percentage ownership of WTT's outstanding common stock, the Willtek Shareholders will have substantial influence and control over the leadership, day-to-day management and strategic direction of the combined company, and will be able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters, transactions and corporate actions that require approval of our shareholders.

Representations and Warranties

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties made by the Willtek Shareholders to WTT and made by WTT to the Willtek Shareholders. The assertions contained in such representations and warranties are qualified by information set forth in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and in confidential disclosure schedules that the parties have exchanged in connection with the execution of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. While we do not believe that they contain information relative to WTT that securities laws require WTT to publicly disclose other than information that has already been so disclosed by WTT, the disclosure schedules do contain certain non-public information concerning Willtek, as well as information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the attached Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts, since they are modified in important part by the underlying disclosure schedules. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may have changed since the date of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in WTT's public disclosure.

Limitation on the Willtek Shareholders' and Willtek's Ability to Solicit Other Acquisition Proposals

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement provides that the Willtek Shareholders will not, nor will they permit Willtek or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective representatives to, directly or indirectly:

87




•  solicit, initiate, encourage or otherwise facilitate, any inquiries or the making of any proposals or offers from any person relating to any transaction involving the sale of Willtek or any of its subsidiaries or their respective assets or securities, or any merger or similar business combination involving Willtek or any of its subsidiaries, the consummation of which could reasonably be expected to impede or interfere with the benefits to WTT of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (an "Acquisition Proposal"); or
•  enter into any letter of intent, term sheet, agreement, contract, commitment, plan or arrangement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal.

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement also required the Willtek Shareholders, Willtek and each of its subsidiaries and their respective representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties with respect to an Acquisition Proposal. Each of the Willtek Shareholders and Willtek agreed that through the completion of the Acquisition, they each will:

•  maintain records of all communications and attempted communications, to the extent known, with any person regarding any Acquisition Proposal (including the identity of the person making or proposing any Acquisition Proposal and the material terms of the Acquisition Proposal); and
•  promptly notify WTT orally and within 24 hours in writing of the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal (but need not provide the identity of the person making the Acquisition Proposal or copies of actual materials received from such person).

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement provides that if it is terminated before the completion of the Acquisition by the Willtek Shareholders other than as permitted in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, upon the written request of WTT, each Willtek Shareholder and Willtek will promptly (but in no event later than five business days) deliver to WTT all records relating to any Acquisition Proposal it is required to maintain, including the identity of the person making or proposing the Acquisition Proposal.

Non-Solicitation of Clients and Employees

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement provides that through the completion of the Acquisition or, if the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement is terminated prior to the completion of the Acquisition, for a period of two years from the date of termination, WTT will not directly or indirectly solicit or entice away any employee of Willtek or its subsidiaries. This prohibition does not apply to the extent an employee of Willtek has responded solely to a public advertisement for employment.

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement further provides that for a period of two years from the completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders will not directly or indirectly solicit or entice away from WTT or any of its subsidiaries (1) any employee of WTT or its subsidiaries or (2) any person or entity that has been a client or customer of WTT or its subsidiaries within the past two years.

•  the non-contravention, directly or indirectly, of any applicable law or order of any governmental entity by virtue of the performance of the transactions contemplated by the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement;
•  the receipt by the Willtek Shareholders of the Acquisition Consideration (less the 1,000,000 shares of WTT's common stock deposited into escrow for one year following the closing of the Acquistion to secure the indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement);
•  the receipt by the Willtek Shareholders of an opinion of counsel to WTT with respect to certain agreed upon matters;

•  WTT having duly executed and delivered to the Willtek Shareholders a counterpart of the shareholders' agreement and the indemnification escrow agreement; and
•  the Willtek Shareholders' receipt of (1) the duly executed resignation of Mr. Genova as a director of WTT (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of WTT at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors following completion of the Acquisition), and (2) duly executed resolutions of WTT's board of directors appointing Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem to WTT's board of directors, Mr. Tung as WTT's Chairman of the Board and Cyrille Damany, the Chief Executive Officer of Willtek, as the new Chief Executive Officer of WTT.

We presently do not expect that any of the conditions listed above will be waived by any of the parties.

Termination of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the completion of the Acquisition by:

•  mutual written consent of WTT and the Willtek Shareholders;
•  by either WTT or the Willtek Shareholders, if:
—  the Acquisition is not completed by August 15, 2005;

90




—  the Acquisition and the Issuance are not approved by WTT's shareholders within
60 days after the date this proxy statement is first mailed to WTT's shareholders; or
—  there exists any final non-appealable legal prohibition on completion of the Acquisition;
•  by WTT, if any of the closing conditions to its obligations under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement have become incapable of fulfillment and have not been waived by WTT (provided WTT is not then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement);
•  by WTT if, notwithstanding any prior disclosure, any change, event or development or series of changes, events or developments arising from or relating to any of the IP Allegations contained in the IP Letter, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Willtek (it being acknowledged and agreed that any license or royalty agreement that arises from or relates to any of the IP Allegations that would require Willtek to pay an amount in excess of €75,000 (approximately $96,200) per year will be deemed to have had a material adverse effect on Willtek);
•  by the Willtek Shareholders, if any of the closing conditions to their obligations under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement have become incapable of fulfillment and have not been waived by the Willtek Shareholders (provided the Willtek Shareholders are not then in material breach of any of their representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement); or
•  by the Willtek Shareholders, if the Willtek Shareholders would be required under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement to indemnify WTT in an amount in excess of $5,000,000 for certain liabilities arising from or related to the IP Allegations.

No termination fee would be payable by any party to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement in the event of termination of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement by any party under the circumstances set forth above. Nothing contained in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement will be deemed to release any party from liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or to impair the rights of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement.

Indemnification Provisions

General Indemnification Obligations. In general, the Willtek Shareholders, jointly and severally, will be required to indemnify WTT for any losses arising from any breach of a representation or warranty of the Willtek Shareholders or any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation of the Willtek Shareholders or Willtek contained in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. Likewise, WTT will be required to indemnify the Willtek Shareholders for any losses arising from any breach of a representation or warranty of WTT or any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation of WTT contained in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement.

Tax Indemnification Obligations.   In addition, the Willtek Shareholders, jointly and severally, are required to indemnify WTT for any liability for the payment of taxes relating to Willtek for accounting periods ending before the completion of the Acquisition, for straddle periods or periods ending after completion of the Acquisition, to the extent the relevant action that causes the tax occurred during a period prior to the completion of the Acquisition (excluding a pre-closing period injection of capital that results in a reduction of Willtek's tax loss carryforwards), for all income tax liability of the Willtek Shareholders or their affiliates (other than Willtek and its subsidiaries), and for all liabilities for reasonable legal fees and expenses attributable to the foregoing. The Willtek Shareholders are not, however, required to indemnify WTT for any liability for the payment of taxes attributable to any action taken on or after the closing date of the Acquisition by WTT or attributable to a breach by WTT of its obligations under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. WTT is required to indemnify the Willtek Shareholders for liability for the payment of taxes relating to

91




Willtek for periods other than those periods for which the Willtek Shareholders are required to indemnify WTT for tax liability, and for all liabilities for reasonable legal fees and expenses attributable to the foregoing.

Limitations Relating to General and Tax Indemnification Obligations.    The parties' general and tax indemnification obligations are subject to the following limitations and qualifications:

•  general and tax indemnification claims must be asserted by the first anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition, except that:
—  indemnification claims for breaches of representations and warranties relating to certain pension matters, tax matters and environmental matters, and any tax indemnification claims must be asserted by the third anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition; and
—  the following indemnification claims (the "No Limit Claims") may be made at any time following the completion of the Acquisition:
claims by WTT for breaches of the Willtek Shareholders' representations and warranties relating to (1) the proper organization, qualification, good standing and other corporate organizational matters relating to each Willtek Shareholder, Willtek and each of its subsidiaries, (2) Willtek's capital structure, and the number of authorized and outstanding share capital of Willtek, (3) the authority of each Willtek Shareholder and Willtek to enter into the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the related ancillary agreements and to consummate the transactions contemplated by such agreements, (4) the valid title to the share capital of Willtek to be sold by the Willtek Shareholders to WTT in the Acquisition, free and clear of all liens, and (5) the investment intent of the Willtek Shareholders and acknowledgement that they will receive restricted securities in the Acquisition; and
claims by the Willtek Shareholders for breaches of WTT's representations and warranties relating to (1) the proper organization, qualification, good standing and other corporate organizational matters relating to WTT and each of its subsidiaries, (2) WTT's capital structure, and the number of authorized and outstanding shares of capital stock of WTT, and (3) the authority of WTT to enter into the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement and the related ancillary agreements and to consummate the transactions contemplated by such agreements;
•  except for the No Limit Claims (which are not subject to the following limitations), no individual general or tax indemnification claim may be made for less than €25,000 (approximately $32,000) ("De Minimus Claims"), or until the aggregate amount of all claims (including De Minimus Claims) exceeds €150,000 (approximately $192,500) (the "Aggregate Threshold"), in which case the party seeking indemnification may recover all amounts above and below the Aggregate Threshold; and
•  except for the No Limit Claims (which are not subject to the following limitation), the aggregate liability of the Willtek Shareholders for general and tax indemnification to WTT, and the aggregate liability of WTT for general and tax indemnification to the Willtek Shareholders, is each limited to an amount equal to $6.0 million (the "Indemnification Cap").

IP Letter Exposure Indemnification Obligations of the Willtek Shareholders.    In addition to the general and tax indemnification obligations described above, the Willtek Shareholders, jointly and severally, are required to indemnify WTT for any liability (including any license, royalty, settlement or other obligation of Willtek), to the extent arising or resulting from or relating to the IP Allegations contained in the IP Letter, to the extent that any such liability relates to any actual or alleged infringement, dilution or misappropriation of any intellectual property with respect to any period prior to the completion of the Acquisition (the "IP Letter Exposure"). The indemnification obligations of

92




the Willtek Shareholders for IP Letter Exposure are not subject to any limitations (including, without limitation, those applicable to the Willtek Shareholders' general and tax indemnification obligations described above), and claims for indemnification for IP Letter Exposure may be made by WTT at any time following the completion of the Acquisition, except that:

•  the $6.0 million Indemnification Cap applicable to the Willtek Shareholders' general and tax indemnification obligations will be reduced, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, by an amount equal to the aggregate indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders for IP Letter Exposure, up to a maximum reduction of $1.0 million (assuming such maximum reduction, the Indemnification Cap applicable to the Willtek Shareholders' general and tax indemnification obligations would be $5.0 million); and
•  no indemnification claim may be made by WTT for IP Letter Exposure until the aggregate amount of all claims exceeds €25,000 (approximately $32,000), in which case WTT may recover all amounts above and below this threshold amount.

Escrowed Shares.    If WTT is entitled to indemnification from the Willtek Shareholders pursuant to any of the Willtek Shareholders' general, tax or IP Letter Exposure indemnification obligations set forth in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, during the one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition, WTT must first proceed against the 1,000,000 shares held in escrow before it can seek monetary damages directly from the Willtek Shareholders. For purposes of calculating the number of escrowed shares deliverable to WTT with respect to a valid claim for indemnification, the value of each escrowed share shall be equal to the numerical average of the closing price of WTT's common stock on the American Stock Exchange for the ten trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the date that notification of a claim for indemnification is made under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement. Based on the $2.50 closing price of a share of WTT's common stock on the American Stock Exchange on May 6, 2005, the aggregate value of the shares of WTT's common stock to be held in escrow would be approximately $2.5 million.

Sole Post-Closing Remedies.    The indemnification provisions are the parties' exclusive, post-closing remedies for claims arising under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, except for claims based on fraudulent conduct, fraudulent misrepresentation or other willful misconduct and except for equitable remedies (including the right to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief) and for remedies which cannot be waived as a matter of law.

Fees and Expenses

Each of the parties to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement has agreed to be responsible for the payment of its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition, except that WTT has agreed that if the Acquisition is completed, it will at the closing of the Acquisition pay the reasonable transaction expenses incurred by the Willtek Shareholders, Willtek and its subsidiaries that are related to the Acquisition, up to a maximum amount of $1.0 million.

Amendments and Waivers

The Amended Stock Purchase Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded or cancelled, and any of the terms, covenants, representations, warranties or conditions contained therein may be waived (to the extent legally permissible) only by an instrument in writing signed by each of the parties to the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by or on behalf of the party waiving compliance.

OTHER AGREEMENTS RELATED TO THE ACQUISITION

This section of the proxy statement provides a summary of all material provisions of the shareholders' agreement, the Amended Loan Agreement and the indemnification escrow agreement, but it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. We urge you to carefully read the form of shareholders' agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and attached hereto as Annex C, the Amended Loan Agreement, which is incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and attached hereto as Annex D, and the form of indemnification escrow agreement, which is also incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and attached hereto as Annex E.

93




Shareholders' Agreement

As a condition to the completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders and WTT will enter into a shareholders' agreement at the closing of the Acquisition in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C. The shareholders' agreement will provide for certain rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition, and certain related corporate matters. The material provisions of the shareholders' agreement are summarized below.

Board Representation.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that upon the closing of the Acquisition, WTT's board of directors will consist of seven members. Although Mr. Genova has been nominated for election to our board of directors at the annual meeting, if the Acquisition is completed (which we presently anticipate will occur on or about July 1, 2005, assuming all of the other conditions to completion of the Acquisition have been satisfied or waived), Mr. Genova (if reelected at the annual meeting) will resign from WTT's board of directors at the closing of the Acquisition (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of WTT at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors following completion of the Acquisition), and the remaining five members of WTT's board of directors will then appoint two individuals designated by Investcorp to serve as directors of WTT until the next annual meeting of WTT's shareholders or until his successor is duly elected and qualified. Investcorp has designated Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, each of whom is a partner of Investcorp, to be appointed to serve as directors on WTT's board commencing at the closing of the Acquisition. The shareholders' agreement will provide that Mr. Tung will be designated as Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition, and Mr. Tung will continue in such capacity for as long as he desires, subject to his continuing as a director of WTT and provided that his appointment is not subsequently prohibited by applicable law or the rules of the American Stock Exchange. The shareholders' agreement will also provide that Mr. Simonyan, WTT's current Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, will be designated non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition, and Mr. Simonyan will continue in such capacity for as long as he desires, subject to the same conditions as Mr. Tung. For certain biographical and other information relating to Investcorp's two director designees, please see "The Acquisition—Directors and Executive Officers of WTT Following Completion of the Acquisition" beginning on page 75. For certain information concerning each of WTT's current directors who are expected to continue to serve as directors of WTT after completion of the Acquisition, please see "Proposal 2: Election of Directors" beginning on page 116.

Chief Executive Officer Appointment.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that effective at the closing of the Acquisition, our board of directors will appoint Cyrille Damany, Willtek's Chief Executive Officer, to serve as the new Chief Executive Officer of WTT. Mr. Damany will replace Mr. Simonyan, who has served as interim Chief Executive Officer since July 2004.

Rights to Designate Director Candidates for Nomination.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that for so long as Investcorp's beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock continuously equals or exceeds 12.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock, at each annual or special meeting of WTT at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to WTT's nominating committee two candidates for nomination for election to WTT's board of directors. For so long as Investcorp's beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock is less than 12.5% but continuously equals or exceeds 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock, at each annual or special meeting of WTT at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to WTT's nominating committee one candidate for nomination for election to WTT's board of directors. Such nominations must not contravene WTT's charter and bylaws, the charter of WTT's nominating committee, the New Jersey Business Corporation Act, the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange, the fiduciary duties of WTT's board of directors to WTT's shareholders and other constituents, and any other applicable law. If at any time Investcorp's beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock falls below 12.5% or 5% (as applicable) of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock and Investcorp does not increase its beneficial ownership above such thresholds (as applicable) prior to the end of a 20-day grace period, Investcorp's nomination rights corresponding to such beneficial ownership threshold will expire at the end of the 20-day grace period.

94




If any of Investcorp's director designees dies, resigns from WTT's board or is removed from WTT's board or is disqualified from serving on WTT's board under applicable law, a new individual may be designated by Investcorp for appointment by WTT's board to fill the vacancy created by the death, resignation, removal or disqualification of such former WTT director, provided Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock then entitles Investcorp to make such designation.

Voting Obligations of the Willtek Shareholders.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that until the earlier of the second anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition or the date on which Investcorp no longer has the right to designate director candidates for nomination under the terms of the shareholders' agreement, in any meeting of WTT's shareholders at which directors are to be elected, the Willtek Shareholders will (1) cause their shares of WTT's common stock to be present (in person or by proxy) for purposes of establishing a quorum and (2) affirmatively vote their shares of WTT's common stock for the election of Investcorp's director nominees and for the election of each of the other director candidates nominated by WTT's board of directors, except that the Willtek Shareholders will not be required to vote for the election of any nominee for director designated by WTT's board of directors in the event such nominee is not supported by at least a majority of the members of WTT's board of directors (excluding any Investcorp director nominee). Except with respect to the foregoing, each Willtek Shareholder will be entitled to vote in its sole discretion all shares of WTT's common stock beneficially owned by it, except that each must vote against any amendment to WTT's charter or bylaws that would adversely affect the indemnification rights of WTT's directors and officers thereunder.

Restrictions on Transfer.    In addition to restrictions on transfer imposed under U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws, the shareholders' agreement will provide for the following restrictions on the transfer of the shares of WTT's common stock received by the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition: (1) Investcorp may not transfer any shares of our common stock for a period of one year following the closing date of the Acquisition and Damany Holding may not transfer any shares of WTT's common stock for a period of six months following the closing date of the Acquisition, in each case except for transfers to certain permitted transferees; and (2) without the prior written approval of a majority of the members of WTT's board of directors (excluding any Investcorp director nominee), the Willtek Shareholders may not transfer any shares of WTT's common stock to certain specified direct competitors of WTT without first offering WTT the opportunity to purchase such shares on the same terms and conditions. The shareholders' agreement will further provide that if, without the prior written approval of a majority of the members of WTT's board of directors (excluding any Investcorp director nominee), Investcorp transfers any shares of WTT's common stock to certain specified direct competitors of WTT without first offering WTT the opportunity to purchase such shares on the same terms and conditions, (1) each of the Investcorp director nominees then serving on WTT's board of directors must immediately resign from WTT's board and (2) any and all rights of Investcorp to designate director candidates of WTT's nominating committee immediately will terminate, notwithstanding Investcorp's beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock. We expect that cash for any repurchase by WTT of any shares of WTT's common stock held by the Willtek Shareholders would come from our working capital.

Registration Rights.    The shareholders' agreement will provide that after a period of one year following the closing date of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders will have the right to demand that WTT file up to two registration statements with the SEC under the Securities Act covering the securities acquired by the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition, and will also have incidental or "piggyback" registration rights covering such securities effective after such one-year period, subject, in the latter case, to certain limitations related to underwriter "cut-backs". With respect to a demand registration, WTT will agree to keep each demand registration statement continuously effective for a period of time necessary for the selling stockholders to sell all of their registrable securities covered by such registration statement, not to exceed 150 days. If WTT is eligible to register a primary offering of securities on Form S-3 (or its successor Form) under the General Instructions to such Form, the holders of registrable securities will be entitled to require that either or both of the demand registrations be effected as a shelf registration in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act,

95




in which case WTT will be required to keep such registration continuously effective until the earlier of: (1) the second anniversary of the effective date of such demand registration statement, (2) following the first anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition, the first date on which the Willtek Shareholders own less than 1% of WTT's issued and outstanding common stock, or (3) the first date on which all registrable securities held by the Willtek Shareholders may be sold to the public in a single transaction under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.

WTT will pay all registration expenses in connection with each demand or incidental registration under the terms of the shareholders' agreement, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of one law firm representing the holders of registrable securities (which, in the case of a demand registration, will not exceed $50,000 per registration, and in the case of an incidental registration, will not exceed $15,000 per registration). The holders of registrable securities will pay all discounts and commissions payable to underwriters, selling brokers, managers or similar persons relating to the disposition of their registrable securities and all fees and expenses of legal counsel not payable by WTT in connection with any such demand or incidental registration.

In connection with any public offering of securities of WTT and upon the request of the underwriters managing any underwritten offering, the Willtek Shareholders will not dispose of shares of WTT's common stock during the 30-day period prior to, and the 90-day period following, the date of the sale of securities in connection with such offering.

WTT will also be entitled, for reasonable periods of time not to exceed 45 consecutive days and in no event to exceed more than an aggregate of 90 days during any 360-day period, to postpone and delay the filing or effectiveness of any demand registration statement, or suspend the effectiveness of any registration statement, if a majority of the non-Investcorp nominated directors determine in their good faith judgment that any such filing or the offering of any registrable securities would: (1) impede, delay or otherwise interfere with any material pending or contemplated acquisition or divestiture, or (2) require disclosure of material non-public information that would be detrimental to the best interests of WTT and its shareholders.

These demand and incidental registration rights will terminate on the first date on which: (1) following the first anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders own less than 1% of WTT's issued and outstanding common stock, or (2) all registrable securities held by the Willtek Shareholders may be sold to the public in a single transaction under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.

Amended and Restated Loan Agreement

Under the terms of a loan agreement, dated March 12, 2003 (the "Original Loan Agreement"), Investcorp, which presently owns 80.9% of the outstanding share capital of Willtek, provided a loan to Willtek in the principal amount of €3.5 million (the "Original Loan"). The Original Loan bears interest at the rate of 8% per year accruing at the end of each calendar quarter, and matures on March 1, 2008. Willtek may prepay all outstanding principal and interest under the Original Loan Agreement without penalty. The Original Loan is not secured by any assets of Willtek or any of its subsidiaries.

Investcorp is entitled to terminate the Original Loan Agreement in writing upon four weeks notice:

•  at any time after March 1, 2008; or
•  in the case of a merger, acquisition, sale of voting control, sale of substantially all of the assets of Willtek in which Investcorp does not own a majority of the outstanding shares of the surviving entity, or the sale or exclusive license of substantially all of Willtek's intellectual property rights without Investcorp's consent.

Upon termination, the entire outstanding principal and unpaid interest under the Original Loan Agreement would be immediately due and payable to Investcorp.

In connection with the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, Willtek entered into the Amended Loan Agreement dated March 29, 2005 with Investcorp, pursuant to which Investcorp will waive its

96




right to terminate the Original Loan Agreement upon completion of the Acquisition and to immediately collect the €3.5 million outstanding principal amount thereunder (approximately $4.6 million), together with all interest accrued and then unpaid under the Original Loan Agreement at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the Acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). Willtek entered into the Amended Loan Agreement primarily to allow the Acquisition to be completed without triggering Investcorp's termination right under the Original Loan Agreement, to reduce the rate at which interest will accrue on the loan after the Acquisition, and to make other provisions discussed below relating to WTT, as the parent company of Willtek following the Acquisition. WTT signed the Amended Loan Agreement to guaranty payment of any amounts payable by Willtek to Investcorp under the Amended Loan Agreement. The Amended Loan Agreement will not become effective until the closing date of the Acquisition, at which time the Original Loan Agreement will be terminated. Under the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement, the loan will bear interest at the rate of 4% per year accruing at the end of each calendar quarter. The loan is payable in one lump-sum on December 31, 2006. Willtek may prepay all outstanding principal and interest under the Amended Loan Agreement without penalty. The Amended Loan Agreement will not be secured by any assets of Willtek or WTT.

Investcorp is entitled to terminate the Amended Loan Agreement in writing upon four weeks notice:

•  in the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of voting control or sale of substantially all of the assets of WTT, which results in the Willtek Shareholders in the aggregate owning less than 15% of the outstanding shares of the surviving entity in such transaction;
•  in the event of a sale or exclusive license of all or substantially all of Willtek's or WTT's intellectual property rights without Investcorp's prior consent;
•  in the event WTT undertakes a primary issuance of capital stock resulting in net cash proceeds to WTT in excess of $15.0 million;
•  in the event WTT or any of its subsidiaries sells any of its assets resulting in total net cash proceeds to WTT or any of its subsidiaries in excess of $4.0 million;
•  in the event WTT and its consolidated subsidiaries incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or replace any indebtedness in excess of $4.0 million; or
•  in the event WTT and its subsidiaries record a month-end cash and cash equivalent balance in excess of $18.0 million.

In addition, Investcorp may terminate the Amended Loan Agreement in writing at any time upon the occurrence of any one or more of the following events of default:

•  in the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of voting control or sale of substantially all of the assets of WTT, with respect to which the Willtek Shareholders have voted against the transaction;
•  in the event Willtek or WTT is insolvent or files for bankruptcy or similar protection, or an application for bankruptcy against Willtek is rejected due to lack of assets; or
•  in the event Willtek or WTT is in default under existing bank arrangements and the lenders thereunder either have commenced legal proceedings to enforce claims thereunder or have taken steps to enforce security interests thereunder.

Upon termination, the entire outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest thereon under the Amended Loan Agreement will be immediately due and payable to Investcorp.

WTT believes that the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement with Investcorp are no less favorable than loan terms available from an independent third party.

Indemnification Escrow Agreement

As a condition to completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders, WTT and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"), will enter into an indemnification escrow agreement at the closing of the Acquisition in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex E. The material provisions of the indemnification escrow agreement are summarized below.

97




Deposit of Indemnification Shares.    The indemnification escrow agreement will provide that at the closing of the Acquisition, WTT will deposit 1,000,000, or 12.5%, of the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued as the Acquisition Consideration (the "Indemnification Shares") with the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent will hold the Indemnification Shares in escrow as collateral for the indemnification obligations of the Willtek Shareholders under the Stock Purchase Agreement until the Escrow Agent is required to release the Indemnification Shares in accordance with the terms of the indemnification escrow agreement. With respect to monetary remedies for valid claims, during the one-year period following the closing date of the Acquisition (the "Escrow Period"), WTT must first seek recourse against the Indemnification Shares, pursuant to the terms of the indemnification escrow agreement, and will be entitled to pursue other monetary remedies, subject to the limitations set forth in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, only to the extent that the Indemnification Shares are not sufficient to compensate WTT for all of its losses. The Indemnification Shares and the provisions of the indemnification escrow agreement will not limit any of WTT's other rights of recovery expressly set forth in the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any and all rights to indemnification from and after the expiration of the Escrow Period. At the end of the Escrow Period, any of the Indemnification Shares that have not been used to satisfy valid claims for indemnification by WTT will be delivered to the Willtek Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the indemnification escrow agreement.

Uncontested and Contested Claims.    The indemnification escrow agreement will provide that if, within 10 business days after a notice of claim containing a statement of claimed losses has been received by the Willtek Shareholders and the Escrow Agent, the Willtek Shareholders have not contested such notice in writing and the Escrow Agent has not received written confirmation from WTT that the Willtek Shareholders have paid WTT in full the amount demanded in the notice of claim, then the Escrow Agent will immediately release from escrow and transfer to WTT for cancellation and forfeiture that number of Indemnification Shares having a value equal to the amount of losses specified in the notice of claim. In the event that the Willtek Shareholders deliver to WTT and the Escrow Agent a written notice contesting all, or a portion of, a notice of claim and such written notice has been received by Purchaser and the Escrow Agent within the 10 business day period described above, then the contested claim will be resolved prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, to the extent such timing is reasonably practicable, by either a written settlement agreement executed by WTT and the Willtek Shareholders or, in the absence of such a written settlement agreement, by final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing delivery of the Indemnification Shares, in which event the Escrow Agent will disburse the Indemnification Shares in accordance with such agreement or order.

Upon its receipt of a copy of such order or agreement, the Escrow Agent will first permit the Willtek Shareholders, at their option, the opportunity to pay to WTT the amount of losses (if any) that are owed to WTT in full in cash on or before the fifth business day after the Escrow Agent's receipt of a copy of such agreement or order. If the Escrow Agent does not receive written confirmation from WTT that the owed losses have been paid in full in cash to WTT prior to the fifth business day after the Escrow Agent's receipt of a copy of such agreement or order, then the Escrow Agent will immediately release from escrow and transfer to WTT for cancellation that number of Indemnification Shares having a value equal to the amount of losses (if any) owed to WTT.

Value of Indemnification Shares.    For purposes of calculating the number of Indemnification Shares deliverable to WTT with respect to a valid claim for indemnification, the value of each Indemnification Shares shall be equal to the numerical average of the closing price of WTT's common stock on the American Stock Exchange for the ten trading days ending on the date immediately preceding the date that notification of a claim for indemnification is made under the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement.

98




SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS
AND MANAGEMENT OF WTT

The following table sets forth, as of May 5, 2005 (the record date for the annual meeting), both before and after giving effect to the Acquisition, the beneficial ownership of our common stock by:

•  each person who is known to us to beneficially own 5% or more of our outstanding common stock;

WTT FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Included in this proxy statement are WTT's audited consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and audited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF WTT

Introduction

WTT, and its operating subsidiaries, Boonton Electronics Corporation and Microlab/FXR, develop, manufacture and market a wide variety of electronic noise sources, electronic testing and measuring instruments including power meters, voltmeters and modulation meters and high-power passive microwave components. WTT's products have historically been primarily used to test the performance and capability of cellular/PCS and satellite communication systems and to measure the power of radio frequencies and microwave systems. Other applications include radio, radar, wireless local area network ("WLAN"), digital television and high-speed digital design.

The financial information presented herein includes: (i) Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2004 and as of December 31, 2003 (ii) Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (iii) Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Shareholders' Equity for the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (iv) Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires WTT to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for each period. The following represents a summary of WTT's critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that WTT believes are: (a) the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and (b) that require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates and assumptions are made by management to assess the overall likelihood that an accounting estimate or assumption may require adjustment. Management assumptions have been reasonably accurate in the past, and future estimates or assumptions are likely to be calculated on the same basis.

Allowances for doubtful accounts

WTT maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. A key consideration in estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts has been, and will continue to be, our customer's payment history and aging of its accounts receivable balance. For example, based upon our receivable balances, for every additional 1% increase needed in our reserve, we will have to increase our allowance by approximately $32,000 and record a similar charge to operations.

Income taxes

As part of the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements, WTT is required to estimate its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The process incorporates an assessment of the current tax exposure together with temporary differences resulting from different

101




treatment of transactions for tax and financial statement purposes. Such differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the consolidated balance sheet. The recovery of deferred tax assets from future taxable income must be assessed and, to the extent that recovery is not likely, WTT establishes a valuation allowance. Increases in valuation allowances result in the recording of additional tax expense. Further, if the ultimate tax liability differs from the periodic tax provision reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, additional tax expense may be recorded. Our deferred tax asset at December 31, 2004, aggregates approximately $1,085,000. We must continue to be profitable in order to be able to utilize this asset in future periods.

Valuation of long-lived assets

WTT assesses the potential impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets, other than goodwill, are reviewed for impairment not less than annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any such asset may be impaired. WTT's management evaluates the recoverability of such flows, expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition, is less than the carrying amount of the assets, management will recognize an impairment loss to the extent of the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over the discounted cash flow.

SFAS No. 142 requires that WTT perform an assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired on an annual basis unless events or circumstances warrant a more frequent assessment. The impairment assessment involves, among other things, an estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit based on the discounted cash flow methodology. Significant assumptions used in our analysis include annual revenue growth rate from 8% to 13% and a discount rate of approximately 18%. If the assessment indicates that the fair value is less than the carrying value, then the goodwill would be subject to an impairment loss adjustment.

If the impairment review of goodwill, intangible assets, and other long-lived assets differ significantly from actual results, it could have a material adverse effect on WTT's results of operations and financial condition.

Results of Operations

For the Year Ended December 31, 2004 Compared to December 31, 2003

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $22,105,207 as compared to $19,724,240 for the year ended 2003, an increase of $2,380,967 or 12.1%. This increase was primarily the result of increased sales activity in 2004 of WTT's peak power meter instruments - mainly due to upgrades to on-hand inventory, which primarily consisted of improved screen displays utilizing liquid crystal displays "LCD" in place of the cathode ray tube "CRT" screen displays. Additionally, increased sales for certain existing and potential customers, in part, were due to the company's continuous efforts to publicize the advantages and many applications of our products on a commercial basis. We anticipate that these product upgrades will continue to result in increased sales in future years, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. These product upgrades had no effect on our valuation of existing inventory or the calculation of our reserve for obsolescence.

WTT's gross profit on net sales for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $11,783,291 or 53.5% as compared to $10,259,362 or 52.0% as reported in the previous year. Gross profit margins are higher in 2004 than in 2003 primarily due to higher sales volume, the result of increased demand for WTT's products, and lower manufacturing labor and direct overhead costs. Additionally, WTT completed its consolidation in the third quarter of 2004, thus lowering duplicate overhead costs. Prices have remained relatively stable along with modest increases in manufacturing labor costs. WTT can experience variations in gross profit based upon the mix of product sales as well as variations due to revenue volume and economics of scale. WTT continues to rigidly monitor costs associated with material acquisition, manufacturing and production.

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 were 9,461,819 or 42.8% of net sales as compared to $8,125,284 or 41.2% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2003. For the year

102




ended December 31, 2004 as compared to the prior year, operating expenses increased in dollars by $1,336,535. The increases in amount and percentage are primarily due to a one-time payout to WTT's former CEO, increased efforts in sales and marketing in 2004 including the addition of sales personnel, and an increased marketing campaign.

Interest income increased by $39,119 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase was primarily due to increased returns on short-term investments in 2004. Other income decreased by $184,140 for the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily due to realized losses in a working capital management account, classified as cash equivalents due to the fact that they were highly liquid and readily convertible to cash, and intended to be liquidated by WTT on a short-term basis.

Net income was $2,331,477 or $.13 per share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to $1,762,995 or $.10 per share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2003, an increase of $568,482 or 32.2%.

For the Year Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to December 31, 2002

Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $19,724,240 as compared to $20,747,707 for the year ended 2002, a decrease of $1,023,467 or 4.9%. This was primarily due to a slight reduction in demand for passive microwave components by two foreign customers, one of which temporarily reduced its technology spending and the other no longer purchases microwave components from the company.

WTT's gross profit on net sales for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $10,259,362 or 52.0% as compared to $10,466,842 or 50.4% as reported in the previous year. Gross profit margins are higher in 2003 than in 2002 primarily due to higher gross margins at Noise Com and Boonton. Historically, Noise and Boonton have reported higher gross margins due to the nature of their products, active RF and microwave instrumentation, compared to passive devices which are more competitive in pricing. Management expects these margins to continue in current operations. WTT can experience variations in gross profit based upon the mix of product sales as well as variations due to revenue volume and economies of scale. WTT continues to rigidly monitor costs associated with material acquisition, manufacturing and production.

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $8,125,284 or 41.2% of net sales as compared to $7,678,996 or 37.0% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2002. For the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to the prior year, operating expenses increased in dollars by $446,288. The increases in amount and percentage are primarily due to increased efforts in sales and marketing in 2003 including the addition of sales personnel and an increased marketing campaign. The increase was also due to focused spending on the research and development of new products.

In 2003 and 2002 there was no impairment of goodwill, but in December 2001, WTT identified certain conditions, including an overall weakness in the telecommunications market relating to the noise generation product line, as indicators of asset impairment. These conditions led to forecasted future results that were substantially less than had originally been anticipated at the time of acquisition. In accordance with WTT's policy, management assessed the recoverability of goodwill, and as a result, WTT recognized full impairment of this goodwill and recorded a non-cash expense of $2,032,051 for the 2001 year. This impairment impacted WTT's income before taxes for financial reporting purposes, but not for income tax purposes. Therefore, WTT's effective tax rate in 2001 was substantially higher than usual.

Interest, dividend and other income increased by $638,577 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase was primarily due to an increase in interest income, partially offset by a one-time write down in 2002 of an investment in a non-affiliated company.

Net income was $1,762,995 or $.10 per share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to $1,767,618 or $.10 per share on a diluted basis, for the year ended December 31, 2002.

103




Liquidity and Capital Resources

WTT's working capital has decreased by $412,333 to $23,559,525 at December 31, 2004, from $23,971,858 at December 31, 2003. At December 31, 2004, WTT had a current ratio of 9.6 to 1, and a ratio of debt to net worth of .20 to 1. At December 31, 2003, the Company had a crrent ratio of 11.9 to 1, and a ratio of debt to net worth of .19 to 1.

Net cash provided from operations has allowed WTT to meet its liquidity requirements, research and development activities and capital expenditures. Operating activities provided $2,281,169 in cash for the year ending December 31, 2004 compared to $2,661,582 and $3,093,762 in cash flows for the years ending December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For 2004, cash provided by operations was primarily due to net income, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a non-cash adjustment for depreciation and amortization, partially offset by an increase in inventories and a non-cash adjustment for deferred income tax benefit. For 2003, cash provided by operations was primarily due to net income, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, and a non-cash adjustment for depreciation and amortization, partially offset by an increase in inventories. For 2002, cash provided by operations was primarily due to net income, a decrease in inventories, a non-cash adjustment for depreciation and amortization and non-cash adjustment for the write-down on an investment, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses and an increase in accounts receivable.

WTT has historically been able to turn over its accounts receivable approximately every two months. This average collection period has been sufficient to provide the working capital and liquidity necessary to operate WTT.

WTT is aware of a potential event that might impact its liquidity in 2005, relating to the lease of the space it occupies in Hanover Township, Parsippany, New Jersey. The ten-year lease, which expires in 2011, provides for the WTT, at its option, to terminate the lease on September 30, 2006. The exercise of this option requires a one-year advance notice and the payment of $205,500. At this time, WTT does not expect to exercise this option or have to pay this amount.

Net cash used for investing activities for 2004 amounted to $1,650,092 compared to $451,695,775 for the years ending December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the primary use of cash was for capital expenditures and for costs associated with a potential acquisition. In 2003 and 2002, the primary use of cash was for capital expenditures.

Net cash used for financing activities was $1,113,026, $1,467,302 and $2,022,447 for the years ending December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In 2004, the primary use of this cash was for the payment of dividends. In 2003 and 2002, the primary uses of this cash were for the payment of dividends and for the acquisition of treasury stock. Cash outlays were partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options in 2004, 2003 and 2002.

Under the terms of the Amended Stock Purchase Agreement, prior to completion of the acquisition, we are restricted from paying any cash or non-cash dividends, other than regular quarterly cash dividends to our shareholders in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. While it is our present intention to maintain our quarterly cash dividend policy, both prior to and after completion of the acquisition, the declaration of dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be determined by our board after consideration of various factors, including, without limitation, our liquidity and financial condition.

For information concerning quarterly cash dividends declared for our 2003 and 2004 fiscal years and for the first two fiscal quarters of 2005, please refer to the section of this proxy statement titled "Dividend Policy."

Inflation and Seasonality

WTT does not anticipate that inflation will significantly impact its business nor does it believe that its business is seasonal.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivatives and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This standard is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003. This standard had no impact on WTT's financial statements.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity." This standard requires that certain financial instruments embodying an obligation to transfer assets or to issue equity securities be classified as liabilities. It is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is generally effective July 1, 2003. This standard had no impact on WTT's financial statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We have no material exposure to market risk that could affect our future results of operations and financial condition.

BUSINESS OF WILLTEK

General Overview and Background

Willtek designs, develops, manufactures and markets test equipment for the wireless communications industry. Willtek's test equipment, including primarily terminal test products and air interface test products are sold to component suppliers, network equipment manufacturers and wireless communications service providers, who use communications test equipment to design, manufacture, deploy, monitor and maintain wireless communications networks and technologies.

The business operated by Willtek traces its history back to 1958, when Munich-based Solatron Elektronik GmbH produced the world's first synthesized signal generator. The business was then sold to Schlumberger Industries S.A. in 1964 and became part of Schlumberger's instruments division until October 1994. In October 1994, the business was then acquired by Wavetek Corporation and merged into its German subsidiary Wavetek Electronics GmbH to become Wavetek's wireless division, after integrating with Wavetek's Indianapolis radio frequency testing division. In 1998, Wavetek merged with Wandel & Goltermann, which then sold the business in 2000 to Acterna Corporation (formerly Dynatech Corporation). Acterna operated the business as its wireless instruments division through its subsidiary, Acterna München GmbH, until April 2002, when Acterna München GmbH was acquired by Willtek Communications Holding GmbH ("Willtek Holding") and renamed Willtek Communications GmbH. Willtek Holding was a newly-formed acquisition vehicle which, at that time, was 61% owned by Willteck Corporation, a publicly-traded Korean corporation ("Willteck Corporation"), and 39% owned by Damany Holding, a German private limited liability company wholly owned by Cyrille Damany.

105




Under the terms of Willtek Holding's acquisition of Acterna München GmbH, Willtek Holding guaranteed a three-year loan that was due from Willtek to Acterna and, as security for the loan, Acterna held in escrow 51% of Willtek's outstanding share capital. After a default under the loan by Willtek, in March 2003, Acterna sold all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek it held in escrow to Investcorp, a Cayman Islands limited partnership. In April 2003, Investcorp executed a loan agreement with Willteck Corporation which was secured by Willteck Corporation's 61% equity interest in Willtek Holding. In September 2003, Willteck Corporation defaulted under its loan agreement with Investcorp and, as a result, Investcorp foreclosed on Willteck Corporation's 61% equity interest in Willtek Holding. In December 2003, to simplify Willtek's corporate ownership structure, a downstream merger of Willtek Holding into Willtek was effected. As a result, Investcorp presently owns 80.9% of Willtek's outstanding share capital, and Damany Holding presently owns 19.1% of Willtek's outstanding share capital.

Industry

The test and measurement industry is a specialized segment in the larger wireless data and communications network industry. Component suppliers, network and terminal equipment manufacturers and wireless communications service providers, Willtek's primary customers, use communications test equipment to design, manufacture, deploy, monitor and maintain wireless communications networks and technologies. Test and measurement equipment is used by these industry participants to design, manufacture, deploy, monitor and maintain wireless communications networks and technologies

Network equipment manufacturers provide products to facilitate the transmission of voice and data traffic, including wireless networks and subscriber equipment. The customers of such network equipment manufacturers include the distributors of end-user subscriber devices, such as mobile handsets, and communications service providers that operate and maintain the wireless networks. To develop mobile handset equipment, mobile phone manufacturers require test instruments and systems for the development of wireless devices, high-frequency communications circuits and systems. Furthermore, the rapid expansion of the mobile handset market, coupled with subscriber turnover created by the introduction of new technologies, has fueled growth for automated test equipment to test wireless data networks. Investments continue for advanced R&D verification solutions for 2.5G and 3G appliance development and network deployment as the demand for complex wireless data networks increases.

Communications service providers require network equipment that allows their networks to operate reliably at increasingly faster speeds while providing expanded capacity. These service providers require test instruments and systems for the monitoring and evaluation of wireless networks on a continuous basis and to identify sources of communications error.

Component suppliers and manufacturers require test and measurement instruments and systems designed to achieve faster production and that maintain flexibility for use in different applications. These test products may be required to be specialized to address particular needs of such component supplier and manufacturer.

Technology and Products

Willtek specializes in the design, development, manufacture, installation, and operation of instruments that test wireless communications networks and mobile terminals at their radio frequency interface for quality of transmission and reception. Willtek's test and measurement products serve two primary market applications, terminal testing ("Terminal Test") and air interface testing ("Air Interface Test").

The 9100 Series can also be used with remote control software that lets it serve as a remote testing station.

Competition

Willtek's largest competitors in the test and measurement market are estimated to control more than 70% of the market. Agilent Technologies, Inc. is Willtek's largest competitor, followed by Rohde & Schwarz, Tektronix, Inc. and Anritsu Corporation. IFR Systems Marconi and Racal Instruments, integrated into a business unit of Aeroflex Incorporated (a leader in the microelectronic test market), also compete in this market.

In the Terminal Test market, Willtek holds approximately 18% of the global service market, and approximately 50% of the service market in Western Europe. Agilent, Rohde & Schwarz and Anritsu, in the aggregate, are estimated to control approximately 45% of the global service market and 30% of the service market in Western Europe.

In the Air Interface Test market, the market is fragmented into several small competitors, with no dominant player. Agilent, Rohde & Schwarz, Anritsu and Tektronix are Willtek's largest competitors in this segment. These competitors primarily are focused on the equipment manufacturers in this segment, whereas Willtek focuses on wireless network operators.

Manufacturing and Suppliers

Willtek manufactures and services all its products at its facility in Ismaning, Germany. As of November 1, 2004, Willtek employed 23 manufacturing employees at its Ismaning facility.

Willtek purchases its parts generally from single-source suppliers. Willtek does not rely on any one particular supplier for a majority of the parts used in the production of its Terminal Test and Air Interface Test products, although some of the parts that require design work may not be readily available from alternate suppliers due to their unique design. Because Willtek has no direct control over its third-party suppliers, interruptions or delays in the products and services provided by these third parties may be difficult to remedy in a timely fashion. In addition, if such suppliers are unable or unwilling to deliver the necessary parts or products, Willtek may be unable to redesign or adapt its technology to work without such parts or find alternative suppliers or manufacturers.

Distribution Channels and Customers

Willtek distributes its products and services through a direct sales force addressing its key customers, complemented by a network of agents, representatives and distributors. Willtek has direct sales representatives in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Finland, Italy, Hungary, Singapore and China. It has developed a network of more than 60 distributors and sales partners supported by an extensive network of accredited repair and calibration centers.

Willtek targets sales of its products to wireless device manufacturers and service centers globally. No single customer of Willtek represented more than 20% of Willtek's revenues in its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004. Sales in Europe, the Americas and Asia each accounted for approximately 60%, 20% and 20%, respectively, of Willtek's total net revenues for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.

Patents

Willtek has filed over 70 patent applications (covering 15 products/technologies) in the United States and abroad and holds 12 patents and utility models (covering eight products/technologies), four of which are in the United States. Such patent applications and patents cover a wide range of products and technologies and have various expiration dates. Willtek's patents cover three general areas:

WILLTEK OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

Overview

Willtek's business originated in the company Solatron Elektronik GmbH, founded in Munich, Germany, in 1958. After a series of acquisitions, first by Schlumberger Industries S.A., then by Wavetek Corporation and then by Acterna Corporation, Willtek's current organizational structure was created in April 2002 through a management buy-out of the business from Acterna Corporation by Willtek Holding, which operated the business through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Willtek. In December 2003, to simplify Willtek's corporate ownership structure, a downstream merger of Willtek Holding into Willtek was effected.

Willtek designs, manufactures and markets test equipment for the wireless industry. Willtek specializes in instruments that test wireless systems at the Radio Frequency ("RF") interface for quality of the transmission and reception for two main target applications: testing of mobile phones and other wireless devices, and testing of network RF coverage. Willtek's products are used in the manufacturing process of wireless devices (primarily quality control), in mobile equipment after-sales service centers or service kiosks of mobile operators, and in the deployment and maintenance of wireless networks.

Willtek's organizational structure is based on functions (marketing, research and development, operations (production and service) and sales, general and administration), rather than products. Willtek sells its products directly (including subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, France, the USA, and representative offices in Singapore and Shanghai), as well as through distributors and agents.

There were significant changes in the financial statements due to the insourcing of the production of certain product lines from the former parent company into the Willtek location in Ismaning, Germany, in fiscal year 2002/2003, which led to an increase in gross margins in fiscal year 2003/2004.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires Willtek to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for each period. The following represents a summary of Willtek's critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that Willtek believes are: (a) the most important to the portrayal of its financial condition and results of operations, and (b) that require management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Willtek recognizes revenue from product sales, net of trade discounts and allowances, once delivery has occurred provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibilty is reasonably assured. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

110




Willtek also generates revenue from services. Revenue from service is recognized after the service is performed, and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met, or is recognized ratably over the life of the corresponding service periods.

Receivables are stated at the nominal value. Willtek accounts for uncollectible accounts under the allowance method. Potentially uncollectible accounts are provided for throughout the year and actual bad debts are written off to the allowance in a timely fashion.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Willtek evaluates ending inventories for estimated excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes analyses of sales levels by product and projections of future demand within specific time horizons, generally twelve and 24 months. Inventories in excess of future demand are written down. In addition, Willtek assesses the impact of changing technology on its inventory-on-hand and writes-off inventories that are considered obsolete.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (other than goodwill)

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. The estimated useful life is three years for computer hardware, five to 10 years for machinery, office equipment and other machinery, and up to 25 years for buildings. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease term, whichever is shorter.

The historical cost of assets that are either sold or scrapped is eliminated after deduction of accumulated depreciation. Gains and losses on the sale of fixed assets are shown as "other income" or "other expenses" respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred.

Intangible assets consist of proprietary technology which is amortized over a two-year period which approximates the marketable life of the technology and customer related intangible assets, which are amortized on an accelerated basis over a twenty-year period.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Willtek reviews its long-lived assets (other than goodwill) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Willtek assesses the recoverability of the long-lived assets (other than goodwill) by comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flow associated with the related asset or group of assets against their respective carrying amounts. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is typically calculated using discounted expected future cash flows. As of March 31, 2004 and 2003, Willtek believes that no such impairment exists.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination.

Willtek performs goodwill impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, and more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss has occurred. Circumstances that could trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed of; results of testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and recognition of a goodwill impairment loss in the financial statements of a subsidiary that is a component of a reporting unit.

Willtek performs the impairment tests at the reporting unit level. The tests are performed by determining the fair values of the reporting units using a discounted future cash flow model and comparing those fair values to the carrying values of the reporting units, including goodwill. If the fair

111




value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, Willtek then allocates the fair value of the unit to all the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit's fair value was the purchase price to acquire the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Significant judgments and assumptions are required in the forecast of future operating results used in the preparation of the estimated future cash flows, including profit margins, long-term forecasts of the amounts and timing of overall market growth and Willtek's percentage of that market, grouping of assets, discount rates and terminal growth rates.

Provision for Bad Debt

Willtek performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition. Willtek maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of its customers to make required payments. Willtek evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In cases where Willtek is aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer's ability to meet its financial obligations to Willtek, Willtek records a specific allowance against the amounts due to Willtek, and thereby reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount Willtek reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, Willtek recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due, industry and geographic concentrations, the current business environment and Willtek's historical experience. Willtek records its bad debt expenses as selling and administrative expenses.

Total bad debt provisions amounted to €150,648 for the year ended March 31, 2004 and €159,536 for the nine months ended December 31, 2004.

Warranty Claims

Willtek's operating result includes a provision for warranty claims. Warranty claims are estimated at 0.5% of sales revenues, based on historical experience. Warranty provisions amounted to €120,016 as of March 31, 2004 and €114,362 as of December 31, 2004. Warranty cost were €124,811 for the year ended March 31, 2004 (of which €9,826 net increase of provisions) and €59,553 for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 (of which €5,654 net decrease of provisions).

Trend Information

While the market for mobile phone handsets is growing at an estimated rate of 10 – 20% per year, demand for Willtek's products is rather driven by the introduction of new mobile phone technologies. Currently, operators in many countries have started to establish and operate 3G (3rd generation) networks. While a strong growth in the number of 3G subscribers is expected to drive demand for Willtek's products, there is still uncertainly about the eventual market penetration of 3G networks.

Results of Operations

For the Nine-Month Periods Ended December 31, 2003 and 2004

Net Revenue

Willtek's net revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2003 was €16.5 million, of which €15.1 million was attributed to product sales and €1.4 million to service revenues. Willtek's net revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 was €15.6 million, of which €14.1 million was attributed to product sales and €1.5 million to service revenues. The higher net revenue in the nine months ended December 31, 2003 was primarily attributable to a decrease of order backlog by about €3.1 million, while in the nine months ended December 31, 2004, order backlog increased by about €1.0 million. From April 2003 to date, prices on average remained constant.

Willtek's gross profit on net revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 was €8.9 million or 56.8% as compared to €8.7 million or 52.7% as reported in the nine months ended

112




December 31, 2003. Gross profit margins were higher in the nine months ended December 31, 2004 primarily due to an improved product mix. Willtek continues to rigidly monitor costs associated with material acquisition, manufacturing and production.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 were €10.6 million or 68.2% of net sales as compared to €10.2 million or 61.9% of net sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2003.

Net interest Expenses

In both nine month periods ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, net interest expenses amounted to €0.2 million.

For the Years Ended March 31, 2003 and 2004

Net Revenue

Willtek's net revenue in 2002/03 was €22.6 million, of which €20.6 million was attributed to product sales and €2.0 million to service revenues. Willtek's net revenue in 2003/04 was €21.8 million, of which €19.6 million was attributed to product sales and €2.2 million to service revenues. The slight decrease in net revenue on a year-over-year basis was attributable to exchange rate changes (depreciation of U.S. dollar vs. euro). From April 2002 to date, prices on average remained constant.

Willtek's gross profit on net revenue for the year ended March 31, 2004 was €11.4 million or 52.1% as compared to €11.0 million or 48.8% as reported in the previous year. Gross profit margins were higher in fiscal year 2004 than in fiscal year 2003 primarily due to the insourcing of the production of certain products, improved distribution channels and improved product mix. Willtek can experience variations in gross profit based upon the mix of product sales as well as variations due to revenue volume and economies of scale. Willtek continues to rigidly monitor costs associated with material acquisition, manufacturing and production.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the year ended March 31, 2004 were €14.2 million (including the write-off of goodwill of €0.7 million) or 65.2% of net sales as compared to €13.9 million or 61.3% of net sales for the year ended March 31, 2003.

Other Income

In 2002/03, other income amounted to €3.2 million, of which €2.9 million were accounted for by foregiveness of payable to Acterna LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which had been agreed upon the management buy-out, and €0.1 by exchange rate gains. In 2003/04, other income amounted to €0.6 million, of which €0.4 million were accounted for by exchange rate gains.

Other Expenses

In 2002/03, total other expenses amounted to €0.9 million, of which €0.6 million were accounted for by exchange rate losses. In 2003/04, total other expenses amounted to €0.6 million, of which €0.5 million were accounted for by exchange rate losses.

Net interest Expenses

In both years ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, net interest expenses amounted to €0.2 million.

In the year ended March 31, 2003, there was no impairment of goodwill, but in the year ended March 31, 2004 the goodwill related to Willtek's U.S. subsidiary was written off in full in on the basis of an impairment test. In March 2004, a review of the fiscal year 2003 and fiscal year 2004 operating results for the U.S. operation and the projected results for the upcoming fiscal year resulted in the write off of goodwill that was booked in purchase accounting at the time of the management buyout from Acterna. Revenue in the Americas was below plan in fiscal year 2003 and fiscal year 2004 and the budget for fiscal year 2005 was adjusted to reflect current market conditions in the region. As a result, goodwill impairment in the amount of €0.7 million was disclosed in the operating expenses.

Net income was –€2.9 million for the year ended March 31, 2004 as compared to –€0.8 million for the previous year.

113




Annual Loss

Willtek has incurred losses in each year since its current structures were established through the management buy-out in April 2002. The losses in 2002/03 and 2003/04 and the nine months ended December 31, 2004 were attributable to the start-up nature (including the establishing of systems, brand, internal sales organisation and distribution channels) of Willtek's business.

Liquidity and Financial Resources

In the fiscal years ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, Willtek has been funded by a loan from its principal shareholder, Investcorp Technology Ventures L.P., of €3.5 million (€1.3 million of which have been netted with payable taken over by Investcorp). Except for this loan, net cash provided from operations has allowed Willtek to meet its liquidity requirements, research and development activities and capital expenditures.

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, Willtek's operational activities provided €0.5 million of cash through its net loss of €0.8 million, depreciation and other non-cash effects of €2.3 million, offset by a reduction of operating assets and liabilities of €3.6 million. Willtek used €0.4 million for investing activities for the purchase of plant and equipment. Willtek received from financing activities €1.0 million through borrowings from a shareholder. As a result, cash and cash equivalents increased from €0.1 million to €1.1 million.

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, Willtek's operational activities used €0.5 million of cash through its net loss of €2.9 million, offset by a reduction of operating assets and liabilities of €1.4 million and depreciation and other non-cash effects of €1.1 million. Willtek used €0.5 million for investing activities for the purchase of plant and equipment. Willtek received from financing activities €1.2 million through increased borrowings from a shareholder. As a result, cash and cash equivalents increased from €1.1 million to €1.4 million. The cash was deposited in interest-bearing bank accounts with major German banks.

The claims under the employer's pension liability insurance policies taken out at Victoria Versicherungs AG, Düsseldorf, Germany, were assigned for a credit line of €600,000 granted by Commerzbank to Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning, Germany, by loan commitment dated July 23/August 12, 2003. As at March 31, 2004, and September 30, 2004, €400,000 of the credit line was used for a bank guarantee to the lessor.

LfA Foerderbank Bayern, a public bank of the State of Bavaria, has offered on November 18, 2004 a subsidized loan facility to Willtek (to be paid out until May 2005 through Commerzbank AG) from a program designed to support R&D activities of selected local high-tech companies. Conditions are: interest free until June 2008; 4% interest thereafter; repayment from December 2008 through June 2014. As of January 5, 2005, the company has not yet drawn on this facility.

Commitments and Contingencies

As of March 31, 2004, Willtek had financial obligations from rent and lease agreements, all of which will be terminated until December 31, 2008, amounting to €5.9 million, mostly from office rentals. Willtek rents offices at its locations in Ismaning, Germany (term until December 31, 2008), Chessington, U.K. (term until June 2, 2008), Paris, France (less than one-year term), Indianapolis, Indiana (term until December 31, 2008), Singapore (less than one-year term), and Shanghai, People's Republic of China (less than one-year term).

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Willtek is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk through its sales and purchasing transactions denominated in currencies other than its functional currency, the euro. These foreign currency sales and purchases are limited to transactions in U.S. dollars (USD) and Pounds Sterling (GBP). A portion of Willtek's exposure to exchange rate risk is offset by the fact that both revenues and costs are generated in these foreign currencies, and the difference between the company's foreign currency revenues and costs constitute Willtek's net exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. Such fluctuations may have a positive or negative impact on Willtek's revenues and profitability depending upon the mix of sales and costs in the relevant currency and the extent of the fluctuation.

Willtek seeks to partially compensate for exchange rate fluctuations by adjusting the prices that it charges for products and services in USD and GBP. For example, when the USD/euro exchange rate rises, which results in Willtek's receiving fewer euros for a given amount of USD, Willtek will to a certain extent raise its USD-denominated selling prices. While there are inherent market limitations on the extent to which price adjustments can be implemented, Willtek believes that this method is sufficient to protect against foreign currency fluctuations.

In fiscal year 2004, Willtek's net exposure (revenues – costs) to the USD was 4.8 million USD, and its net exposure to the GBP was 140,000 GBP, which together amounted to 19% of Willtek's total revenues. As presented in the sensitivity analysis set forth below, an increase or decrease of 10% in the euro/USD and euro/GBP exchange rates would have resulted in an increase or decrease in Willtek's net income of 420,000 EUR, or 1.9% of revenues, before accounting for any price adjustments that management may implement.

Willtek's management reviews on a quarterly basis the developments in the relevant exchange rates, evaluates their effects on the company's revenues in euros, and adjusts its USD- and GBP-denominated price list accordingly in order to compensate for this effect. Willtek does not use financial market hedging instruments, as they imply risks on their own and costs that Willtek's management does not consider to be justified by the limited exchange rate risks to which the company is exposed.

PROPOSAL 2:

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

WTT's by-laws provide that WTT's board of directors shall consist of up to nine members. The number of directors constituting WTT's board of directors, as determined by WTT's board, is currently fixed at seven. At present, there are six directors serving on WTT's board of directors and there is one vacancy, which has existed since the mutual termination of Terence McCoy's employment as Chief Executive Officer of WTT and his departure from WTT's board in July 2004. At the annual meeting, WTT's shareholders will be asked to vote for the election of six nominees to serve on WTT's board of directors until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified.

If a proxy is properly executed but does not contain voting instructions, it will be voted "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named below as a director of WTT. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than six. Management has no reason to believe that any of the nominees named below will not be a candidate or will be unable to serve as a director. However, in the event that any of the nominees should become unable or unwilling to serve as a director, the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominees as WTT's board of directors may designate.

There is no family relationship among any of the director nominees, current directors or executive officers of WTT.

Appointment of Investcorp Designated Director Nominees

As a condition to the completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders and WTT will enter into a shareholders' agreement at the closing of the Acquisition in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C. The shareholders' agreement will provide, among other things, that upon the closing of the Acquisition, WTT's board of directors will consist of seven members. Although Mr. Genova has been nominated for election to our board of directors at the annual meeting, if the Acquisition is completed (which we presently anticipate will occur on or about July 1, 2005, assuming all of the other conditions to completion of the Acquisition have been satisfied or waived), Mr. Genova (if reelected at the annual meeting) will resign from WTT's board of directors at the closing of the Acquisition (although Mr. Genova will continue to serve in his capacity as the President and Chief Financial Officer of WTT at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors following completion of the Acquisition). The remaining five members of WTT's board of directors will then appoint two individuals designated by Investcorp to fill two vacancies on WTT's board of directors (one of which will exist as a result of Mr. Genova's resignation and one of which has existed since the mutual termination of Terence McCoy's employment as Chief Executive Officer of WTT and his departure from WTT's board in July 2004), each to serve as a directors of WTT until the next annual meeting of WTT's shareholders or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.

Investcorp has designated Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, each of whom is a partner of Investcorp, to be appointed to serve as directors on WTT's board commencing at the closing of the Acquisition. The shareholders' agreement will provide that Mr. Tung will be designated as Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition, and that Mr. Simonyan will be designated as

117




non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board. WTT has no reason to believe that either of Messrs. Tung and Ben-Gacem will be unable to serve as a director of WTT. There is no family relationship between any of the current directors or executive officers of WTT and Messrs. Tung and Ben-Gacem. For certain biographical and other information relating to Messrs. Tung and Ben-Gacem, please see "The Acquisition—Directors and Executive Officers of WTT Following Completion of the Acquisition" beginning on page 75.

The shareholders' agreement will also provide that effective at the closing of the Acquisition, WTT's board of directors will appoint Cyrille Damany, Willtek's Chief Executive Officer, to serve as the new Chief Executive Officer of WTT. Mr. Damany will replace Mr. Simonyan, who has served as interim Chief Executive Officer since July 2004.

The shareholders' agreement will also provide that for so long as Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds, at each annual or special meeting of WTT's shareholders at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to our nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our board of directors. These rights will expire at such time as Investcorp owns less than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock, subject to a 20-day grace period. For additional information concerning the rights and obligations of the Willtek Shareholders with respect to the shares of WTT's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the Acquisition and certain related corporate matters, please see "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Shareholders' Agreement" beginning on page 94.

Independence of Directors

WTT's board of directors has determined that all of WTT's directors, except Mr. Simonyan, our current Chairman of the Board and interim Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Genova, our President and Chief Financial Officer, are currently "independent" in accordance with the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange as currently in effect. Upon Mr. Simonyan's resignation as interim Chief Executive Officer at the closing of the Acquisition, Mr. Simonyan will at that time also be considered independent under the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange. Due to Messrs. Tung's and Ben-Gacem's affiliation with Investcorp and, following completion of the Acquisition, Investcorp's substantial ownership of WTT's common stock and significant business relationship with the combined company by virtue of the Amended Loan Agreement, neither Mr. Tung nor Mr. Ben-Gacem will be independent under such standards. Accordingly, upon the closing of the Acquisition, it is anticipated that all of WTT's directors, except Messrs. Tung and Ben-Gacem, will be independent under the applicable rules of the American Stock Exchange. See "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Amended and Restated Loan Agreement" beginning on page 96 for a discussion of the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

During the year ended December 31, 2004, WTT's board of directors held six meetings. The board of directors has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominations and Governance Committee. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Audit Committee held four meetings, the Compensation Committee held one meeting and the Nominations and Governance Committee held one meeting. During year ended December 31, 2004, no director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of WTT's board of directors (held during the period for which he was a director) and the total number of meetings held by all committees of WTT's board of directors on which he served (held during the period that he served).

Directors who are not employees of WTT are compensated for their services according to a standard arrangement. Such directors are paid a retainer of $2,000 for each meeting of WTT's board of directors attended by such director.

Corporate Governance and Board Committees

WTT's board of directors has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the "Code") that outlines the principles of legal and ethical business conduct under which WTT does business. The

118




Code, which is applicable to all directors, employees and officers of WTT, is available at WTT's website at www.wtt.bz. Any substantive amendment or waiver of the Code may be made only by WTT's board of directors or a committee of the board, and will be promptly disclosed to WTT's shareholders on our website. In addition, disclosure of any waiver of the Code will also be made by the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC.

WTT's board of directors has also adopted a written charter for both the Audit Committee and Nominations and Governance Committees. Each charter is available on WTT's website at www.wtt.bz. The charter for the Audit Committee is attached to this proxy statement as Annex F.

The Audit Committee serves at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors, and is authorized to review proposals of WTT's auditors regarding annual audits, recommend the engagement or discharge of the auditors, review recommendations of such auditors concerning accounting principles and the adequacy of internal controls and accounting procedures and practices, to review the scope of the annual audit, to approve or disapprove each professional service or type of service other than standard auditing services to be provided by the auditors, and to review and discuss the audited financial statements with the auditors. The members of the Audit Committee during the year ended December 31, 2004 were Messrs. Henry L. Bachman, Michael Manza and John Wilchek. Such directors are paid a retainer of $250 for each meeting of the Audit Committee attended by such directors. WTT's board of directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee currently meets the independence criteria set forth in the applicable rules of the American Stock Exchange and the SEC for audit committee membership. The board has also determined that all members of the Audit Committee possess the level of financial literacy required by applicable American Stock Exchange and SEC rules. WTT's board of directors has determined that Henry L. Bachman is qualified as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by the SEC. For additional information about the Audit Committee, see "Report of the Audit Committee" below.

The Compensation Committee serves at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors, and is authorized to establish salaries, incentives and other forms of compensation for officers, directors and certain key employees and consultants, administer WTT's various incentive compensation and benefit plans and recommend policies relating to such plans. The members of the Compensation Committee during the year ended December 31, 2004 were Messrs. Karabet Simonyan, Andrew Scelba and John Wilchek. Each of the directors who comprise the Compensation Committee, except Mr. Simonyan, is currently independent for purposes of the applicable American Stock Exchange rules. Under the applicable American Stock Exchange rules, Mr. Simonyan is not considered independent at this time because he presently serves as WTT's interim Chief Executive Officer. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, when Mr. Simonyan resigns as interim Chief Executive Officer of WTT, Mr. Simonyan will at that time be considered independent in accordance with the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

The Nominations and Governance Committee serves at the pleasure of WTT's board of directors. The Nominations and Governance Committee oversees the process for performance evaluations of each of the committees of the board and is responsible for overseeing matters of corporate governance, including the evaluation of the performance and practices of WTT's board of directors. It is also within the charter of the Nominations and Governance Committee to review WTT's management succession plans and executive resources. In addition, the Nominations and Governance Committee reviews possible candidates for WTT's board of directors and recommends the nominees for directors to the board for approval. The members of the Nominations and Governance Committee during the year ended December 31, 2004 were Messrs. Karabet Simonyan, Michael Manza and Andrew Scelba. Each of the directors who comprise the Nominations and Governance Committee, except Mr. Simonyan, is currently independent for purposes of the applicable American Stock Exchange rules. Under the applicable American Stock Exchange rules, Mr. Simonyan is not considered independent at this time because he presently serves as WTT's interim Chief Executive Officer. Upon the closing of the Acquisition, when Mr. Simonyan resigns as interim Chief Executive Officer of WTT, Mr. Simonyan will at that time be considered independent in accordance with the applicable listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

119




Director Nominations

The Nominations and Governance Committee is responsible for, among other things, the selection, or the recommendation to WTT's board of directors for selection, of nominees for election as directors. WTT's board of directors determines whether the Nominations and Governance Committee shall make director nominations as a committee or make recommendations to the board with respect to director nominations. The Nominations and Governance Committee does not currently have a policy whereby it will consider recommendations from shareholders for its director nominees. The Nominations and Governance Committee feels that it is not appropriate for WTT to have such a policy at this time.

When considering the nomination of directors for election at an annual meeting of shareholders or, if applicable, a special meeting of shareholders, the Nominations and Governance Committee reviews the needs of WTT's board of directors for various skills, background, experience. When reviewing potential nominees, the Nominations and Governance Committee considers the perceived needs of WTT's board of directors, the candidate's relevant background, experience, skills and potential contributions to WTT's board of directors.

There are no specific minimum criteria for director nominees. However, the Nominations and Governance Committee's goal is to assemble a board of directors comprised of directors possessing the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values and who will be committed to representing the long-term interests of WTT's shareholders. Director candidates must have sufficient time available in the judgment of the Nominations and Governance Committee to perform all board and committee responsibilities that will be expected of them. Members of WTT's board of directors are expected to rigorously prepare for, attend and participate in all meetings of the board and applicable committees. The Nominations and Governance Committee will consider candidates for directors proposed by directors or management, and will evaluate any such candidates against the criteria set forth above.

If the Nominations and Governance Committee believes that WTT's board of directors requires additional candidates for nomination, the Nominations and Governance Committee may engage, as appropriate, a third party search firm to assist in identifying qualified candidates. All incumbent directors and nominees will be required to submit a completed directors' and officers' questionnaire as part of the nominating process. The process may also include interviews and additional background and reference checks for non-incumbent nominees, at the discretion of the Nominations and Governance Committee.

Communications by Shareholders with Directors

WTT encourages shareholder communications to WTT's board of directors and/or individual directors. Shareholders who wish to communicate with WTT's board of directors or an individual director should send their communications to the care of Paul Genova, President and Chief Financial Officer, Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., at 25 Eastmans Road, Parsippany, New Jersey 07054; Fax: (201) 261-8339. Communications regarding financial or accounting policies should be sent to the attention of the Chairman of the Audit Committee. All other communications should be sent to the attention of the Chairman of the Nominations and Governance Committee. Mr. Genova will maintain a log of such communications and will transmit as soon as practicable such communications to either the Chairman of the Audit Committee or the Chairman of the Nominations and Governance Committee, as applicable, or to the identified individual director(s), although communications that are abusive, in bad taste or that present safety or security concerns may be handled differently, as determined by Mr. Genova.

Director Attendance at Annual Meetings

WTT will make every effort to schedule its annual meeting of shareholders at a time and date to accommodate attendance by directors taking into account the directors' schedules. All directors are encouraged to attend WTT's annual meeting of shareholders. Five directors attended WTT's 2004 annual meeting of shareholders.

120




Vote Required and Recommendation of WTT's Board of Directors

The terms of each of WTT's incumbent directors will expire on the date of the upcoming annual meeting. Accordingly, six persons are to be elected to serve as members of WTT's board of directors at the annual meeting. Management's nominees for election by WTT's shareholders to those six positions are Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, Paul Genova, Henry L. Bachman, John Wilchek, Michael Manza and Andrew Scelba. Please see "Director Nominees, Current Directors and Executive Officers of WTT" above for information concerning each of the nominees.

If a quorum is present at the annual meeting, the six nominees for directors receiving the highest number of votes cast "FOR" will be elected as directors of WTT, each to serve until the next annual meeting of WTT's shareholders or until their respective successors are elected and qualified. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

Our board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named above to our board of directors.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements

Except as set forth below, WTT currently does not have any employment contracts or other similar agreements or arrangements with any of its executive officers.

Garcia Employment Agreement

Edward J. Garcia served as WTT's Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President from January 1999 to March 2004. WTT and Mr. Garcia were parties to an employment agreement, dated August 1, 1999, as amended in January 2002 (the "Garcia Employment Agreement"). Under the terms of the Garcia Employment Agreement, Mr. Garcia was entitled to receive an annual base salary of $200,000 per year, and an annual bonus, the amount of which was determined by WTT's board of directors in their discretion. The Garcia Employment Agreement provided that, in the event of termination of Mr. Garcia for good reason, without cause, or in the case of Mr. Garcia's non-renewal, as such terms are defined therein, Mr. Garcia would be entitled to receive, among other things:

•  a lump-sum cash payment in an amount equal to three times his annual base salary;
•  benefits coverage for him and his dependents, at the same level and at the same cost as immediately prior to his termination, for a period of three years following termination of his employment with WTT;
•  an award or grant under each WTT incentive plan (other than stock options or other equity plans) in which Mr. Garcia participated at the time of termination equal to the amount of award or grant that Mr. Garcia would have received had he continued to be employed by WTT for three additional years; and
•  the vesting of all stock options or restricted stock previously granted to Mr. Garcia that would vest or become non-forfeitable in the five-year period following termination of Mr. Garcia's employment with WTT.

The Garcia Employment Agreement also provided that if Mr. Garcia's employment was terminated by reason of disability, he would be entitled to receive, for three years after such

123




termination, his annual base salary less any amounts received under a long term disability plan. If he was terminated by reason of his death, his legal representatives would receive the balance of any remuneration due him. The Garcia Employment Agreement had a term of three years from the date of execution with a renewal period of two years, such renewal to occur automatically unless either WTT or Mr. Garcia terminates the employment agreement upon six months written notice.

Upon Mr. Garcia's resignation as an executive officer and director of WTT and the termination of his employment with WTT in March 2004, Mr. Garcia received a lump-sum cash payment equal to $685,000 under the terms of the Garcia Employment Agreement, and the Garcia Employment Agreement was then terminated. From time to time following the termination of Mr. Garcia's employment with WTT, Mr. Garcia has acted as a consultant to WTT on a project basis for fees ranging from $80 to $120 per hour. There is no written consulting agreement or arrangement between Mr. Garcia and WTT.

McCoy Separation Agreement

Terence McCoy served as WTT's Chief Executive Officer and as a director of WTT from April 2004 to July 2004. In July 2004, Mr. McCoy's employment as an executive officer of WTT was mutually terminated and he departed from WTT's board of directors. In August 2004, WTT and Mr. McCoy entered into a separation agreement and release (the "McCoy Separation Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties agreed that Mr. McCoy would receive the following payments and benefits:

•  an amount equal to three months of his annual base salary (approximately $46,154), paid out over three months beginning August 2004 pursuant to WTT's normal payroll practices, less statutory and other usual or customary payroll deductions; and
•  benefits coverage for him and his dependents, at the same level and at the same charges as immediately prior to his termination, at his own expense for a period of up to 18 months following his termination from WTT, or until he becomes eligible for coverage in another group health insurance plan, whichever is sooner, in accordance with applicable federal law.

Under the terms of the McCoy Separation Agreement, Mr. McCoy agreed to keep confidential certain proprietary information relating to WTT and to release and discharge WTT and its affiliates, officers, directors and employees from and against any liabilities, including, without limitation, those arising in any way out of his employment with WTT or the termination of his employment with WTT.

Genova Severance Agreement

WTT and Paul Genova, WTT's President and Chief Financial Officer, executed the Genova Severance Agreement on March 29, 2005. The Genova Severance Agreement provides that if Mr. Genova's employment is terminated by WTT "without cause" or if Mr. Genova terminates his employment for "good reason," then Mr. Genova will be entitled to receive (1) at the sole discretion of WTT, either a lump-sum cash payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect (which based on Mr. Genova's current annual base compensation, would be approximately $135,000), payable within 30 days after termination, and (2) the continuation of all benefits, to the extent permissible under the applicable benefits programs, in which he currently participates for a period of nine months following his termination. If Mr. Genova obtains subsequent employment during such nine-month period and if he receives benefits through such subsequent employment, WTT may terminate his continuing benefits.

Under the terms of the Genova Severance Agreement,

•  "cause" means the occurrence of any one or more of the following: (i) fraud, embezzlement and /or misappropriation of WTT's (or any successor's) funds; (ii) gross or willful misconduct by Mr. Genova in the performance of his duties; (iii) a material violation of WTT's (or any successor's) Code of Conduct; or (iv) a conviction by, or entry or a plea of guilty or nolo contendre in, a court of competent jurisdiction for any crime which constitutes a felony or act or moral turpitude in the jurisdiction involved; and

124




•  "good reason" means (i) the assignment to Mr. Genova of duties materially and adversely inconsistent with his position, title, duties, responsibilities or status with WTT as an officer of WTT, (ii) any removal of Mr. Genova from, or any failure to re-elect Mr. Genova as an officer of WTT, (iii) a reduction in Mr. Genova's salary, or (iv) relocation of Mr. Genova's principal place of employment to a place more than 30 miles from its current location, in each case without Mr. Genova's written consent.

For additional information concerning the Genova Severance Agreement, please see "The Acquisition—Interests of WTT's Executive Officers and Directors in the Acquisition" beginning on page 77.

Compensation of Directors

Directors who are not employees of WTT are compensated for their services according to a standard arrangement authorized by a resolution of WTT's board of directors. Such directors are paid a retainer of $2,000 for each meeting of WTT's board of directors attended by such director.

Director and Officer Liability

New Jersey's Business Corporation Act permits New Jersey corporations to include in their certificates of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors and officers of the corporation for damages arising from certain breaches of fiduciary duty. WTT's certificate of incorporation, as amended, includes a provision eliminating the personal liability of directors and officers to WTT and its shareholders for damages to the maximum extent permitted by New Jersey law, including exculpation for acts of omissions in violation of directors' and officers' fiduciary duties of care. Under current New Jersey law, liability is not eliminated in the case of a breach of a director's or officer's duty of loyalty (i.e., the duty to refrain from transactions involving improper conflicts of interest) to WTT or its shareholders, the failure to act in good faith, the knowing violation of law or the obtainment of an improper personal benefit. WTT's certificate of incorporation, as amended, does not have an effect on the availability of equitable remedies (such as an injunction or rescissions) for breach of fiduciary duty. However, as a practical matter, equitable remedies may not be available in particular circumstances. WTT also has in effect under a policy effective April 1, 2005 and expiring on April 1, 2006 insurance covering all of its directors and officers against certain liabilities and reimbursing WTT for obligations for which it incurs as a result of its indemnification of such directors, officers and employees.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation in Compensation Decisions

The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Karabet Simonyan, Andrew Scelba and John Wilchek. Since July 2004, Mr. Simonyan has served as interim Chief Executive Officer of WTT. During 2004, none of our executive officers served as a director or member of a compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any other entity, whose executive officers served as a director or member of our Compensation Committee.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

In 2004 and 2003, WTT utilized the advertising service of SGW Integrated Marketing Communications. Mr. Andrew Scelba, a director of WTT, served as President and Chairman of the Board of SGW. He retired from this position in 2000 and currently performs consulting services on a limited basis. Total fees paid to SGW in 2004 and 2003 were approximately $49,000 and $59,000, respectively.

As a condition to the completion of the Acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders and WTT will enter into a shareholders' agreement at the closing of the Acquisition in the form attached to this proxy statement as Annex C. The shareholders' agreement will provide, among other things, that upon the closing of the Acquisition, WTT's board of directors will appoint two designees of Investcorp to serve as members of WTT's board of directors until the next annual meeting of shareholders or

125




until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. Investcorp has designated Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, each of whom is a partner of Investcorp, to be appointed to serve as directors on WTT's board commencing at the closing of the Acquisition. The shareholders' agreement will provide that Mr. Tung will be designated as Chairman of the Board at the closing of the Acquisition. The shareholders' agreement will also provide that for so long as Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds, at each annual or special meeting of WTT's shareholders at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to our nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to our board of directors. These rights will expire at such time as Investcorp owns less than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock, subject to a 20-day grace period.

Under the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement, dated March 29, 2005, between Investcorp and Willtek, effective at the closing of the Acquisition, WTT agreed to guaranty payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp equal to €3.5 million (approximately $4.6 million), plus accrued but unpaid interest at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the Acquisition (as of April 30, 2005, approximately €561,000, or approximately $735,000). As a result of WTT's agreement to guaranty payment under the Amended Loan Agreement, after the Acquisition is completed, WTT will have a significant business relationship with Investcorp, which will also be the largest single shareholder of WTT immediately following the Acquisition (owning approximately 31.4% of the outstanding shares of WTT's common stock on a primary basis). For a detailed discussion of the terms of the Amended Loan Agreement, please see "Other Agreements Related to the Acquisition—Amended and Restated Loan Agreement" beginning on page 96.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires WTT's executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of WTT's equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of WTT's common stock and other equity securities of WTT. Such executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by regulation to furnish WTT with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons with the SEC.

Based solely upon WTT's review of such forms furnished to WTT and written representations from certain reporting persons, WTT believes that WTT's executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders have complied with all applicable filing requirements during the year ended December 31, 2004.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Philosophy

WTT strives to apply a uniform philosophy regarding compensation for all of its employees, including the members of its senior management. This philosophy is based upon the premise that the achievements of WTT result from the combined and coordinated efforts of all employees working toward common goals and objectives in a competitive, evolving market place.

The goals of WTT's compensation program are to align remuneration with business objectives and performance, and to enable WTT to retain and competitively reward executive officers who contribute to the long-term success of WTT. WTT attempts to pay its executive officers competitively in order that it will be able to retain the most capable people in the industry. Information with respect to levels of compensation being paid by comparable companies is obtained from various publications and surveys. In making executive compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considered achievement of certain quantitative and qualitative criteria, some of which relate to WTT's performance and others of which relate to the performance of the individual employee. WTT's performance criteria are selected by the Compensation Committee. Awards to executive officers are based on achievement of company and individual performance criteria.

The Compensation Committee will evaluate WTT's compensation policies on an ongoing basis to determine whether they enable WTT to attract, retain and motivate key personnel. To meet these objectives, the Compensation Committee may from time to time increase salaries, award additional stock options or provide other short and long-term incentive compensation to executive officers.

Forms of Compensation

We provide our executive officers with a compensation package consisting of base salary and participation in benefit plans generally available to other employees. In setting total compensation, the Compensation Committee considers individual and company performance, as well as market information regarding compensation paid by other companies in our industry.

Base Salary.    Salaries for our executive officers are initially set based on negotiation with individual executive officers at the time of recruitment and with reference to salaries for comparable positions in the networking industry for individuals of similar education and background to the executive officers being recruited. We also consider the individual's experience, reputation in his or her industry and expected contributions to WTT. Salaries are generally reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and are subject to increases based on (i) the Compensation Committee's determination that the individual's level of contribution to WTT has increased since his or her salary had last been reviewed and (ii) increases in competitive pay levels.

Long-Term Incentives.    Longer-term incentives are provided through stock options, which reward executives and other employees through the growth in value of our stock. The Compensation Committee believes that employee equity ownership provides a major incentive for employees to build shareholder value and serves to align the interests of employees with those of WTT's shareholders. Grants of stock options to executive officers are based upon each officer's relative position, responsibilities and contributions to WTT, with primary weight given to the executive officers' relative rank and responsibilities. Initial stock option grants designed to recruit an executive officer to join WTT may be based on negotiations with the officer and with reference to historical option grants to existing officers. Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and will provide value to the executive officers only when the price of our common stock increases over the exercise price.

Employment and Severance Agreements.    As a matter of business philosophy, in general, WTT does not enter into employment agreements with its senior executive officers. They serve at the will of WTT's board of directors. This enables WTT to remove a senior executive officer prior to retirement whenever it is in the best interests of WTT, with full discretion on any severance package (excluding

127




vested benefits). Similarly, WTT does not enter into severance agreements with senior executive officers when they are hired or promoted. If a senior executive officer is removed, the Compensation Committee will exercise its business judgment in approving an appropriate separation arrangement in light of all relevant circumstances including the individual's term of employment, past accomplishments and reasons for separation from WTT.

The only exceptions to this policy we have made recently are for Edward J. Garcia, who served as Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of WTT from January 1999 to March 2004, and most recently for Terence McCoy, who served as Chief Executive Officer of WTT from April 2004 to July 2004, and for Paul Genova, WTT's President and Chief Executive Officer. WTT and Mr. Garcia were parties to the Garcia Employment Agreement, a copy of which was filed with the SEC as an exhibit to WTT's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. WTT and Mr. McCoy are parties to the McCoy Separation Agreement. For additional disclosure about the Garcia Employment Agreement and the McCoy Separation Agreement, please see "Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements" beginning on page 123. WTT and Mr. Genova are parties to the Genova Severance Agreement, a copy of which was filed with the SEC as an exhibit to WTT's Current Report on Form 8-K dated March 29, 2005. For additional disclosure about the Genova Severance Agreement, please see "The Acquisition—Interests of WTT's Executive Officers and Directors in the Acquisition" beginning on page 77.

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m).    Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, restricts deductibility of executive compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and each of the four other most highly compensated executive officers holding office at the end of any year to the extent such compensation exceeds $1,000,000 for any of such officers in any year and does not qualify for an exception under Section 162(m) or related regulations. The Compensation Committee's policy is to qualify its executive compensation for deductibility under applicable tax laws to the extent practicable. Income related to stock options granted under the WTT's 1995 and 2000 Stock Option Plans generally qualifies for an exemption from these restrictions imposed by Section 162(m). In the future, the Compensation Committee will continue to evaluate the advisability of qualifying its executive compensation for full deductibility.

2004 Compensation

Compensation for the individuals who served as Chief Executive Officer of WTT and other executive officers for fiscal 2004 was set according to the established compensation policy described above.

Edward J. Garcia

Mr. Garcia served as WTT's Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President from January 1999 to March 2004. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, Mr. Garcia received $43,490 in salary, $0 in bonuses and $1,777 in other compensation for his service as an executive officer of WTT. Upon Mr. Garcia's resignation as an executive officer and director of WTT and the termination of his employment with WTT in March 2004, Mr. Garcia received a lump-sum cash payment equal to $685,000 under the terms of the Garcia Employment Agreement, and the Garcia Employment Agreement was then terminated. We did not grant Mr. Garcia any stock options or any other type of equity-based compensation in 2004. Mr. Garcia's compensation for the 2004 fiscal year was based on qualitative managerial efforts and business ingenuity. From time to time following the termination of Mr. Garcia's employment with WTT, Mr. Garcia has acted as a consultant to WTT on a project basis for fees ranging from $80 to $120 per hour. There is no written consulting agreement or arrangement between Mr. Garcia and WTT.

Terence McCoy

Mr. McCoy served as WTT's Chief Executive Officer from April 2004 to July 2004. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, Mr. McCoy received $48,461 in salary, $0 in bonuses and $1,039 in

128




other compensation for his service as an executive officer of WTT. Based on our evaluation of his leadership performance and his potential to enhance long-term shareholder value and on our discussions about the appropriate size and terms of the incentive, we granted Mr. McCoy options to purchase 50,000 shares of WTT's common stock, at an exercise price of $2.99 per share. This was the only equity-based compensation granted to Mr. McCoy in 2004. In July 2004, WTT and Mr. McCoy mutually agreed to terminate Mr. McCoy's employment with WTT, and Mr. McCoy departed from WTT's board of directors. Pursuant to the McCoy Separation Agreement, Mr. McCoy received an amount equal to approximately $46,154, paid in three equal monthly installments beginning in August 2004. Mr. McCoy's compensation for the 2004 fiscal year was based on qualitative managerial efforts and business ingenuity.

Karabet Simonyan

Mr. Simonyan has been serving as WTT's interim Chief Executive Officer since the mutual termination of Mr. McCoy's employment with WTT in July 2004. In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, Mr. Simonyan received $10,250 in compensation for his services as interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Simonyan does not receive a salary for his service as interim Chief Executive Officer, but rather, the Compensation Committee (with Mr. Simonyan abstaining) determines at its discretion the amount of compensation Mr. Simonyan should receive from time to time for his service in that capacity based upon the nature, scope and level of Mr. Simonyan's responsibilities, his contributions to WTT's financial results, his effectiveness in leading WTT's efforts to increase customer value, productivity, cash flow and revenue growth, and the committee's judgment about whether each particular payment or award would provide an appropriate incentive and reward for performance that sustains and enhances long-term shareholder value. Our decision with respect to Mr. Simonyan's compensation for fiscal year 2004 for his service as interim Chief Executive Officer was made within this framework.

On March 22, 2005, with Mr. Simonyan abstaining, we recommended to WTT's board of directors that the board grant Mr. Simonyan incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of WTT's common stock, at an exercise price of $2.57 per share, representing the closing price of WTT's common stock on that date as reported on the American Stock Exchange. Upon our recommendation, and after deliberation and consideration of factors deemed to be relevant under the circumstances, WTT's board of directors, with Mr. Simonyan abstaining, approved such grant on March 22, 2005. The options will vest over a period of three years from the date of grant, with one third vesting on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. We believed that this grant of incentive options to Mr. Simonyan was an appropriate incentive for his future contributions to WTT and his commitment to remain on WTT's board of directors following the completion of the Acquisition and to serve as non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board.

PROPOSAL 3:

ADJOURNMENT OF THE ANNUAL MEETING, IF NECESSARY, TO SOLICIT ADDITIONAL PROXIES IN FAVOR OF THE ACQUISITION AND THE ISSUANCE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE ACQUISITION

Although it is not expected, the annual meeting may be adjourned in the absence of a quorum or for the purpose of soliciting additional proxies in favor of the Acquisition and the Issuance.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.
Parsippany, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. as listed in the index under item 15 in this Form 10-K as well as the financial statement schedule listed in Part IV, Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

NOTE 1 -   DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Organization and Basis of Presentation:

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the Company), develops and manufactures a wide variety of electronic noise sources, testing and measurement instruments and high-power, passive microwave components, which it sells to customers throughout the United States and worldwide through its foreign sales corporation and foreign distributors to commercial and government customers in the electronics industry. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Boonton Electronics Corporation, Microlab/FXR, WTG Foreign Sales Corporation and NC Mahwah, Inc.

Use of Estimates:

In preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes certain estimates and assumptions, where applicable, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While actual results could differ from those estimates, management does not expect such variances, if any, to have a material effect on the financial statements.

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Fair Value:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments and accounts receivable.

The Company maintains significant cash investments primarily with two financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit rating of these institutions as part of its investment strategy.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the Company's large customer base. However, at December 31, 2004, primarily all of the Company's receivables do pertain to the telecommunications industry.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other current assets, accounts payable and long-term debt approximate fair value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank and money market accounts and commercial paper, all stated at cost, which approximates market value. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company had approximately $13,600,000 and $14,200,000 invested in commercial paper and government backed securities, respectively.

Accounts Receivable:

The Company accounts for uncollectible accounts under the allowance method. Potentially uncollectible accounts are provided for throughout the year and actual bad debts are written off to the allowance in a timely fashion.

Inventories:

Raw material inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Finished goods and work-in-process are valued at average cost of production, which includes material, labor and manufacturing expenses.

F-7




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

Inventories consist of:


  December 31,
  2004 2003
Raw materials $ 4,621,649   $ 4,084,932  
Work-in-process   1,203,986     757,436  
Finished goods   954,810     1,060,823  
  $ 6,780,445   $ 5,903,191  

Fixed Assets and Depreciation:

Fixed assets are reflected at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization are provided on a straight-line basis over the following useful lives:


Building and improvements 39 years
Machinery and equipment 5-10 years
Furniture and fixtures 5-10 years
Transportation equipment 3-5 years

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Intangible Assets:

On December 21, 2001, the Company acquired Microlab/FXR, which was recorded under the purchase method of accounting for financial statement purposes. The purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition while the balance of $1,351,392 was recorded as goodwill. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, this goodwill will not be amortized, but will be tested for impairment periodically. It is the responsibility of management to test this goodwill for impairment. Management considered a number of factors, including valuations of the future cash flows of the business. The conclusion of this valuation was that this goodwill was not impaired under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 requirements for goodwill impairment testing and consequently no adjustment to goodwill was necessary.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenue from product sales, net of trade discounts and allowances, is recognized once delivery has occurred provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. Sales to international distributors are recognized in the same manner. There are no post-shipment obligations that exist in any sales arrangement.

Research and Development Costs:

Research and development costs are charged to operations when incurred and are included in operating expenses. The amounts charged for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $1,946,250, $2,045,747 and $1,918,593, respectively.

Advertising Costs:

Advertising expenses are charged to operations during the year in which they are incurred and aggregated $602,216, $488,038 and $492,070 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

Stock Based Compensation:

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because the alternative fair value accounting provided for under FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" requires use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.

Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by FASB Statement No. 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of that statement. The fair values for these options were estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively; risk-free interest rates of 3.5%, 2.4% and 3.5%, dividend yields of 10%, 8% and 2%; volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of 86%, 86% and 76%; and a weighted average expected life of the options of seven years. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options vesting period. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation:


  2004 2003 2002
Net income:
As reported $ 2,331,477   $ 1,762,995   $ 1,767,618  
Less: stock based compensation expense net of tax   (117,015   (126,739   (204,632
Pro forma $ 2,214,462   $ 1,636,256   $ 1,562,986  
Basic earnings per share:
As reported $ .14   $ .10   $ .10  
Pro forma   .13     .10     .09  
Diluted earnings per share:
As reported $ .13   $ .10   $ .10  
Pro forma   .13     .10     .09  

Income Taxes:

The Company utilizes SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires use of the asset and liability approach of providing for income taxes. This statement requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

reverse. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognized the benefit of Boonton's net operating loss carryforward applying a valuation allowance, which requires that the tax benefit be limited based on the weight of available evidence and the probability that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Income Per Common Share:

The Company utilizes SFAS 128 "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"), which changed the method for calculating earnings per share. SFAS 128 requires the presentation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share on the face of the income statement. Income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period. Shares re-acquired by the Company and denoted as treasury stock are not included in this calculation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 151, "Inventory Costs". This statement amends the guidance in ARB 43 (Chapter 4 - Inventory Pricing) to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage). SFAS No. 151 requires that such items be recognized as current period charges. SFAS 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions". This statement amends SFAS No. 66 (Accounting for Sales of Real Estate) and SFAS No. 67 (Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects). This standard, which is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, is not applicable to the Company's current operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 "Exchange of Non-monetary Assets - an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29". Statement 153 eliminates the exception to fair value for exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchange transactions that do not have commercial substance, defined as transactions that are not expected to result in significant changes in the cash flows of the reporting entity. This statement is effective for exchanges of non-monetary assets occurring after June 15, 2005. The application of this statement is not expected to have an impact on the Company's financial statements considering the Company's intermittent participation in exchanges of non-monetary assets.

In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of SFAS No. 123 "Share-Based Payment" (No. 123R). The statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The statement does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payments with parties other than employees. The statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee service received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exception). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (usually the vesting period). A public entity will initially measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of a liability instrument based on its current fair value; the fair value of that award will be re-measured subsequently at each reporting date through the settlement date. Changes in fair value during the requisite service period will be recognized as compensation over that period. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique

characteristics of these instruments. The Company believes this pronouncement, which is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2005, will not have a material effect on their financial position.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

Prior to 1995, the Company had established an Incentive Stock Option Plan under which options to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock were available to be granted to officers and other key employees. All options granted have 10-year terms and vest and become fully exercisable after a maximum of five years from the date of grant.

During 2000, the stockholders approved the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan. The 2000 Plan provides for the grant of ISOs and NQSOs in compliance with the Code to employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors of the Company who are expected to contribute to the Company's future growth and success. 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options under the 2000 Plan. All options granted have 10-year terms and vest and become fully exercisable after a maximum of five years from the date of grant. Under the Company's stock option plans, options may be granted to purchase shares of the Company's common stock exercisable at prices generally equal to the fair market value on the date of the grant.

NOTE 9 -  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Warranties:

The Company provides one-year warranties on of all its products covering both parts and labor. The Company, at its option, repairs or replaces products that are defective during the warranty period if the proper preventive maintenance procedures have been followed by its customers. The costs related to these warranties are not certain and cannot be reasonably estimated. In addition, based upon past experience, these costs have been minimal and therefore, no provision for these costs has been made.

Leases:

The Company leases a 45,700 square foot facility located in Hanover Township, Parsippany, New Jersey, which is currently being used as its principal corporate headquarters and manufacturing plant. The term of the lease agreement is for ten years beginning on October 1, 2001 and ending September 30, 2011. The lease also contains an option to terminate the lease effective September 30, 2006.

The Company leased a 23,100 square foot facility located in Livingston, New Jersey, which was occupied by Microlab/FXR. The original term of the lease was for ten years commencing on March 4,

1996. During the year 2003, the Company exercised an option to cancel the original lease as of the last day of February 2004. Additionally, the Company agreed to a separate three-month lease extension through May 31, 2004 and another two-month lease extension through July 31, 2004. As of July 2004, Microlab/FXR relocated its operations to the Hanover Township, Parsippany facility.

Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 was $591,291, $663,658 and $561,361, respectively.

On July 14, 1998 the Company entered into a 15-year lease for a 44,000 square foot facility located in Mahwah, New Jersey. This new facility was leased to serve as the headquarters and manufacturing plant for one of the Company's divisions, which was sold in 1999. In December 1999, the Company exercised its option to purchase this building. In November 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to lease this property to an unrelated third party. Rental income for 2004 was $379,219. This lease, which terminates in 2013, provides for annual rental income of $379,219 throughout the lease term.

The Company leases certain equipment under operating lease arrangements. These operating leases expire in various years through 2009. All leases may be renewed at the end of their respective leasing periods. Future payments consist of the following at December 31, 2004:


2005 $ 53,113

  $ 212,908  

Environmental Contingencies:

Following an investigation by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) in 1982, of the waste disposal practices at a certain site formerly leased by Boonton, the Company put a ground water management plan into effect as approved by the NJDEP. Costs associated with this site are charged directly to income as incurred. The owner of this site has notified the Company that if the NJDEP investigation proves to have interfered with a sale of the property, the owner may seek to hold the Company liable for any loss it suffers as a result. However, corporate counsel has informed management that, in their opinion, the lessor would not prevail in any lawsuit filed due to the imposition by law of the statute of limitations.

Costs charged to operations in connection with the water management plan amounted to approximately $13,000 and $10,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company estimates the expenditures in this regard for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 will

amount to approximately $12,000. The Company will continue to be liable under the plan, in all future years, until such time as the NJDEP releases it from all obligations applicable thereto.

NOTE 10 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

In 2004 and 2003, the Company utilized the advertising service of SGW Integrated Marketing Communications. One of the Directors of the Company, Mr. Andrew Scelba, served as President and Chairman of the Board of SGW. He retired from this position in 2000 and currently performs consulting services on a limited basis. Total fees paid to SGW in 2004 and 2003 were approximately $49,000 and $59,000, respectively.

In January 2002, the Company paid $140,000 to GALEG, LLC for its services in connection with the identification and acquisition of Microlab/FXR. Mr. Karabet "Gary" Simonyan and members of his immediate family are among the members of GALEG, LLC. Mr. Simonyan is the Company's founder, Non-Executive Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and past President. These services and compensation all occurred before Mr. Simonyan rejoined the Board as a Director in March 2002.

NOTE 11 - PROPOSED ACQUISITION/SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On October 5, 2004, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the "Original Purchase Agreement") with Willtek Communications GmbH, a German private limited liability company ("Willtek"), Damany Holding GmbH, a German private limited liability company and the owner of approximately 20% of Willtek's outstanding capital stock ("Damany Holding"), and Investcorp Technology Ventures, L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership and the owner of approximately 80% of Willtek's outstanding capital stock ("Investcorp" and, together with Damany Holding, the "Willtek Shareholders"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek from the Willtek Shareholders. Willtek, based in Ismaning, Germany, is a leading provider of solutions that enable manufacturers and operators of wireless communications devices to test mobile phones, air interface, and base stations of cellular networks. Willtek's products include high-speed, state-of-the-art test and measurement solutions for handsets and wireless devices, as well as for radio frequencies and network testing tasks. Under the terms of the Original Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of $7,000,000 in cash and 8,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Original Purchase Price"). As a result of the proposed acquisition, Willtek will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

On March 29, 2005, the Company, Willtek and the Willtek Shareholders entered into an amended and restated stock purchase agreement (the "Amended Purchase Agreement"), which modifies the terms of the Original Purchase Agreement. The terms were modified, in part, due to the operating results of Willtek during the past six months and the parties' desire to conserve the Company's existing cash resources. Under the terms of the Amended Purchase Agreement, the Original Purchase Price was reduced by eliminating the $7.0 million cash component. The purchase price now consists solely of 8,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Purchase Price"). Based on the $2.54 closing price of a share of the Company's common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on March 28, 2005, the dollar value of the Purchase Price is approximately $20.3 million. Based on the number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding on March 28, 2005, giving effect to the proposed acquisition, the Willtek Shareholders would own in the aggregate approximately 31.4% of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. As was the case with the Original Purchase Agreement, the Amended Purchase Agreement does not provide for an adjustment in the number of shares of the Company's common stock to be issued to the Willtek Shareholders in the acquisition in the event of a fluctuation in the market price of the Company's common stock.

In connection with the acquisition, substantial changes will be made to the composition of the Company's board of directors and to its senior management team, including the appointment of

F-17




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.

Cyrille Damany, Willtek's current Chief Executive Officer, as the Company's new Chief Executive Officer, and the appointment of two designees of Investcorp to the Company's seven-member board of directors at the closing of the acquisition, one of whom will be appointed Chairman of the Board. It is currently anticipated that, at the closing of the acquisition, Karabet "Gary" Simonyan will continue to serve on the board as non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board. Paul Genova, the Company's President and Chief Financial Officer, will continue as such and report directly to Mr. Damany following completion of the acquisition. Investcorp will continue to be entitled to designate up to two individuals for nomination for election to the Company's board of directors, provided Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of the Company's common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds.

As a result of the substantial changes that will be made to the composition of the Company's board of directors and to its senior management upon completion of the acquisition, the Company's compensation committee took the opportunity to evaluate senior executive employment, severance and compensation arrangements and determined to approve a severance agreement with Mr. Genova, which provides that if Mr. Genova's employment is terminated by the Company without "cause," or if Mr. Genova terminates his employment for "good reason," whether before or after the acquisition, then Mr. Genova will be entitled to receive (1) at the sole discretion of the Company, either a lump-sum cash payment equal to 75% of his annual base compensation then in effect (which, based on Mr. Genova's current annual base compensation would be approximately $135,000), payable within 30 days after termination, or continuation of his base compensation then in effect for a period of nine months after termination, and (2) the continuation of all benefits in which he currently participates for a period of nine months following his termination. Also, the compensation committee approved the grant to Mr. Simonyan of incentive stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock, at an exercise price of $2.57 per share, representing the closing price of the Company's common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on March 22, 2005, the date of grant. The options will vest over a period of three years from the date of grant, with one third vesting on each anniversary of the date of grant.

In connection with the Amended Purchase Agreement, Willtek entered into an amended and restated loan agreement, dated March 29, 2005, with Investcorp, pursuant to which Investcorp will waive its right to terminate an existing loan agreement, dated March 12, 2003, between Willtek and Investcorp upon completion of the acquisition and collect the €3.5 million outstanding principal amount thereunder (approximately $4.6 million), together with all interest accrued and then unpaid under the existing loan agreement at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (as of February 28, 2005, approximately €478,000, or approximately $634,000). The Company signed the amended loan agreement to guaranty payment of any amounts payable by Willtek to Investcorp under the amended loan agreement. The amended loan agreement will not become effective until the closing date of the acquisition, at which time the existing loan agreement will be terminated. Under the terms of the amended loan agreement, following the acquisition, the loan will bear interest at the rate of 4% per year accruing at the end of each calendar quarter and will be due and payable in one lump sum on December 31, 2006. The amended loan agreement will not be secured by any assets of the Company or Willtek. Investcorp may terminate the amended loan agreement under certain circumstances set forth therein. The Company believes that the terms of the amended loan agreement with Investcorp are no less favorable than loan terms available from an independent third party.

Completion of the acquisition is subject to approval by the Company's shareholders, as well as other customary closing conditions. The parties have already received the required antitrust clearances in Germany. The Company's board of directors intends to present a proposal to approve the acquisition of Willtek by the Company and the issuance of the Company\'s common stock to the Willtek Shareholders in the acquisition at the Company's upcoming 2005 annual meeting of shareholders.

F-18

Pending the approval of the Company's shareholders and satisfaction or, where permissible, waiver of all of the other closing conditions, the transaction is expected to close in the second or third calendar quarter of 2005.

Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for Willtek Communications Incorporated, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003/2004

Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning/ Germany

1.      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The Company:

Willtek and subsidiaries (the Company), develops and markets a wide variety of equipment that measures the quality of radio frequencies (RF), applied in two markets: The product group Terminal Test includes instruments used to test wireless devices ("terminals") in development, production or repair. The product group Air Interface includes field instruments used to test wireless network performance, cell site coverage and base stations, as well as all other applications ("general purpose") requiring RF spectrum analysis. These products are sold worldwide to hand set manufacturers, technical service companies and other customers through the Company's own sales force and distributors.

The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2004 include the accounts of Willtek Communications GmbH (parent company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Willtek Communications Ltd. (United Kingdom), Willtek Communications SARL (France), and Willtek Communications Inc. (USA).

On April 30, 2002, Willtek Communications Holding GmbH (WillCo Holding) signed a Master Purchase Agreement (MPA) with Dynatech Holdings GmbH (Dynatech, an Acterna group company) and Acterna LLC (Acterna) to purchase all the shares of Acterna Munchen GmbH (later renamed to Willtek Communications GmbH - Willtek). The purchase price consisted of a loan in the amount of 2,5 Million USD and cash to be paid in installments.

Acterna Munchen GmbH held a 100% investment in a UK subsidiary and (as part of the MPA) formed a US Subsidiary in Indianapolis in which Acterna LLC sold / transferred net assets for a 2,5 Million USD consideration.

On May 22, 2002, the shares of Willtek were transferred from Dynatech to WillCo Holding. Immediately after this a Security Assignment Agreement (SAA) dated May 22, 2002 was signed, in which to secure repayment of loan and purchase price, a 51% share in Willtek was assigned to Dynatech.

As WillCo Holding did not pay the entire remaining purchase price as stipulated in the MPA by October 1, 2002, Dynatech sold the 51% stake of Willtek to Investcorp Technology Ventures L.P. (Investcorp) in accordance with a Share Purchase and Transfer Agreement (SPTA) dated March 3, 2003.

Summary of Significant Accounting Principles:

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S.-GAAP"). The assets, liabilities and results of operations of the above mentioned companies in which the Company has controlling interest have been consolidated. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's financial statements are prepared in euros. The functional currency of each of the Company's subsidiaries is the local currency in which each subsidiary is located. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the year.

F-28




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003/2004

Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning/ Germany

Differences arising from translation are recorded to "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)". Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the date of each transaction. Differences in exchange rates during the period between the date a transaction denominated in a foreign currency is consummated and the date on which it is either settled or translated for inclusion in the consolidated balance sheet are recognized in the statement of income and are included in "Other income (expenses), net" for that period. The foreign currency exchange gain (loss) recognized in the Statement of operations was KEUR (130) and KEUR (482) for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

The exchange rates used to translate the assets and liabilities were as of the last business day of the year for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 for the U.S. dollar and Great Britain pound. The rates used to translate the assets and liabilities in the balance sheets, and the average rates used to translate the statements of operations were as follows:

Currency rate, Balance Sheet


  Mar. 31, 2004 Mar. 31, 2003
USD / EUR   1.2258     1.0931  
GBP / EUR   0.6684     0.6483

USD / EUR   1.1813     0.9912  
GBP / EUR   0.6947     0.6425  

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes certain estimates and assumptions, where applicable, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While actual results could differ from those estimates, management does not expect such variances, if any, to have a material effect on the financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents

All short-term liquid financial assets with an original term of three months or less at the date of purchase, are classified as cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances and cash on hand.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued compensation and other accrued liabilities, approximate fair value because of their short maturities. Fair value of long-term debt is based on discounted cash flow analyses using interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. The Company evaluates ending inventories for estimated excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation includes analyses of sales levels by product and projections of future demand within specific time horizons,

F-29




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003/2004

Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning/ Germany

generally twelve and 24 months. Inventories in excess of future demand are written down. In addition, the Company assesses the impact of changing technology on its inventory-on-hand and writes-off inventories that are considered obsolete.

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (other than goodwill)

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. The estimated useful life is 3 years for computer hardware, 5 to 10 years for machinery, office equipment and other machinery, and up to 25 years for buildings. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease term, whichever is shorter.

The historical cost of assets that are either sold or scrapped is eliminated after deduction of accumulated depreciation. Gains and losses on the sale of fixed assets are shown as "Other income" or "Other expenses" respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred.

Intangible assets consist of proprietary technology which is amortized over a two year period which approximates the marketable life of the technology and customer related intangible assets, which are amortized on an accelerated basis over a twenty year period.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets (other than goodwill) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The company assesses the recoverability of the long-lived assets (other than goodwill) by comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flow associated with the related asset or group of assets against their respective carrying amounts. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is typically calculated using discounted expected future cash flows. As of March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company believes that no such impairment exists.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition costs over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination.

The Company performs goodwill impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, and more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss has occurred. Circumstances that could trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed of; results of testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and recognition of a goodwill impairment loss in the financial statements of a subsidiary that is a component of a reporting unit.

The Company performs the impairment tests at the reporting unit level. The tests are performed by determining the fair values of the reporting units using a discounted future cash flow model and comparing those fair values to the carrying values of the reporting units, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company then allocates the fair value of the unit to all the assets and liabilities of that unit as if the reporting unit's fair value was the purchase price to acquire the reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Significant judgments and assumptions are required in the forecast of future operating results used in the preparation of the estimated future cash flows, including profit margins, long-term forecasts of the

F-30




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003/2004

Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning/ Germany

amounts and timing of overall market growth and the Company's percentage of that market, grouping of assets, discount rates and terminal growth rates.

Concentrations of credit and other risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit-quality financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash and cash equivalents.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectibilty of all accounts receivables. The Company does not require any collateral from its customers.

The Company is not able to predict changes in the financial stability of customers. Any material change in the financial status of any one or a group of customers could have a material effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Although such losses have been within management's expectations to date, there can be no assurance that such allowances will continue to be adequate. At March 31, 2004 and 2003, one customer accounted for 24.1% and 41.7% of the Company's gross accounts receivable, respectively.

For the year ended March 31, 2004, one customer (Acterna Group) accounted for 30% of total sales. For the year ended March 31, 2003, one customer accounted for 43% of total sales.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred and are included in operating expenses.

Shipping and handling costs

Shipping and handling costs are recorded as cost of sales. Amounts that the Company can bill to customers are recorded as revenues.

Income taxes

The Company utilizes SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires use of the asset and liability approach of providing for income taxes. This statement requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from product sales, net of trade discounts and allowances, is recognized once delivery has occurred provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibilty is reasonably assured. Delivery is considered to have occurred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

The Company also generates revenue from services. Revenue from service is recognized after the service is performed, and all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met, or is recognized ratably over the life of the corresponding service periods.

F-31




NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2003/2004

Willtek Communications GmbH, Ismaning/ Germany

Warranty

Customers typically receive a warranty of twelve months for delivered products. Warranty costs are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies". A provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded based on product shipments.

Allowances for doubtful accounts

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of its customers to make required payments. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of factors. In cases where the Company is aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer's ability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, the Company records a specific allowance against the amounts due to the Company, and thereby reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount the Company reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due, industry and geographic concentrations, the current business environment and the Company's historical experience. The Company records its bad debt expenses as selling and administrative expenses.

Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses amounted to KEUR 513 and KEUR 570 for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Comprehensive income

The Company's accumulated other comprehensive income consists of changes in foreign currency translation adjustments.

2.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity". This standard requires that certain financial instruments embodying an obligation to transfer assets or to issue equity securities be classified as liabilities. It is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and otherwise is generally effective July 1, 2003. This standard had no impact on the Company's financial statements.

Fixed assets:

Refer to the Schedule of long lived assets.

Goodwill and purchased intangibles assets:

In connection with the sale of the Company by Acterna in May 2002, a US Subsidiary, Willtek Communications Inc. was founded in which certain assets and liabilities from the Acterna Indianapolis Business Unit were purchased for a consideration of USD 2,500,000. The allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities resulted in the recognition of intangible assets and goodwill. All intangible assets and goodwill result from the acquisition of Willtek Communications Inc. by the Company.

At March 31, 2003, goodwill amounted to EUR 749,797. As of March 31, 2004, goodwill, prior to the impairment discussed below, amounted to EUR 668,653. The difference to prior year results from foreign currency translation only.

The Company's impairment test for the year ended March 31, 2003, resulted in no impairment. The impairment test as of March, 31, 2004, resulted in the impairment of the full value of the goodwill (EUR 668,653) as a result from lower market valuations and reduced estimates of investments in mobile phone testing equipment in the future.

The intangible assets were as follows:


  March 31, 2004

In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

The additional paid - in capital decreased in the financial year 2003/2004 from EUR 14,054,404 to EUR 14,036,078 in connection with a down stream merger.

SECTION 2.18.    TRANSACTIONS WITH DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND AFFILIATES.    Except as disclosed in Schedule 2.18: (i) since May 1, 2002, there have been no transactions between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any Affiliate of the Company, including, without limitation, loans, guarantees or pledges to, by or for the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from, to, by or for any of such persons; (ii) since May 1, 2002, none of the officers, directors, employees or principal stockholders of the Company, or any spouse or relative of any of such Persons, has been a director or officer of, or has had any direct or indirect interest in, any firm, corporation, association or business enterprise which during such period has been a supplier, customer or sales agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or has competed with or been engaged in any business of the kind being conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and (iii) neither Sellers nor any of their Affiliates (other than the Company) owns or has any rights in or to any of the assets, properties or rights used by the Company or any of its Affiliates in the Ordinary Course of Business.

Neither of the independent contractors' or freelancers' contract is handled in a manner that would constitute the contractor or freelancer to be regarded as an employee under German employment, tax or social law. All foreign nationals employed with the Company hold valid work permits, if necessary.

(d)    All payments and other obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to the social insurance and the Taxing Authorities have been duly and timely made, except where any such failure could not be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

Allowances for doubtful accounts and warranty returns are adequate and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied and in accordance with the past practices of the Company.

No material amount of receivables are contingent upon the performance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any obligation or contract other than normal warranty repair or replacement.

All items included in the Inventory are owned by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.05.    TAX MATTERS.

(a)    PRE-CLOSING TAX PERIOD TAX RETURNS.

(i)    As to all Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries due on or before the Closing Date, the Sellers shall prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and pay any Taxes shown as due thereon.

A-29




(ii)    As to Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries due after the Closing Date for tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare and timely file such Tax Returns in accordance with past practice; provided, however, (1) the Purchaser shall deliver any such Tax Return to the Sellers at least 30 days before it is due, (2) the Sellers shall have the right to examine and comment on any such Tax Return prior to the filing thereof, and such Tax Return will not be filed without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (3) the Sellers shall provide such written consent or notice of objection (a "NOTICE OF OBJECTION") no later than 15 days before the Tax Return is due and (4) prior to the filing thereof the Sellers shall reimburse the Purchaser the amount shown to be due on the final version of any such Tax Return that is in excess of any amounts previously paid by the Sellers in respect of such Tax liability by way of estimated Tax payments or otherwise.

(iii)    Any dispute between the parties under this Section 4.05(a) shall be resolved by an Independent Expert in the manner provided below, except that every effort shall be made by the parties and the Independent Expert to resolve the dispute prior to the due date for the applicable Tax Return. If Sellers provide a Notice of Objection to Sellers within the 30-day period referred to in Section 4.05(a)(ii), Purchaser and Sellers shall, during the 15-day period following the Purchaser's receipt of the Notice of Objection, attempt in good faith to resolve Sellers' objections. During such 15-day period, Sellers and their representatives shall be permitted to review the working papers of Purchaser and Purchaser's Accountants relating to the Notice of Objection and the basis therefor. If Purchaser and Sellers are unable to resolve all such objections within such 15-day period, the matters remaining in dispute shall be submitted to an internationally recognized public accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Sellers and, if Purchaser and Sellers are unable to so agree within 10 days after the end of such 15-day period, then Purchaser and Sellers shall each select such a firm and such firms shall jointly select a third internationally recognized firm to resolve the disputed matters (such determining firm being the "INDEPENDENT EXPERT"). The parties shall instruct the Independent Expert to render its written decision as promptly as practicable but in no event later than 60 days after its selection. The resolution of disputed items by the Independent Expert shall be final and binding, and the determination of the Independent Expert shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereover. The fees and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Sellers. If any disputed items cannot be resolved pursuant to this Section 4.05(a) prior to the due date (taking into account permitted extensions) for any Tax Return, the Purchaser shall file such Tax Return in such matter as it deems appropriate and if the resolution of the disputed item provides for treatment of such item that is different than the treatment given such item on the filed Tax Return, an amended Tax Return shall be filed reflecting the resolution of such disputed item.

(b)    STRADDLE PERIOD TAX RETURNS.

(i)    As to any Tax Return of the Company and its Subsidiaries for a tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (a "STRADDLE PERIOD"), the Purchaser shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to prepare and timely file such Tax Return in accordance with past practice and pay all Taxes due with respect thereto; provided, however, that (1) the Purchaser shall deliver any such Tax Return to the Sellers at least 30 days before it is due, (2) the Sellers shall have the right to examine and comment on any such Tax Return prior to the filing thereof, and such Tax Return will not be filed without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (3) the Sellers shall provide such written consent or notice of objection no later than 15 days before the Return is due and (4) the Sellers shall reimburse the Purchaser five days before the filing date of such Tax Return for any amount, determined in accordance with Section 4.05(b)(ii) and Section 7.01, owed by the Sellers with respect to such Tax Return that is in

A-30




excess of any amounts previously paid by the Sellers in respect of such Tax liability by way of estimated Tax payments or otherwise.

(ii)    In the case of Taxes payable in respect of a Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that is allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable period ended on the Closing Date. In making such allocation, any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax item that cannot be specifically allocated to the period before or after the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period in an amount determined by multiplying such item by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.

(iii)    Any dispute between the parties under this Section 4.05(b) shall be resolved by the Independent Expert under the principles of Section 4.05(a)(iii), except that every effort shall be made by the parties and the Independent Expert to resolve the dispute prior to the due date for the applicable Tax Return.

(c)    TRANSFER TAX RETURNS. All Transfer Taxes shall be borne and paid by Purchaser. Each of the Sellers, the Company and the Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts to avail itself of any available exemptions from any such Transfer Taxes, and to cooperate with the other parties in providing any information and documentation that may be necessary to obtain such exemption.

(d)    AMENDED TAX RETURNS. Except as provided in Section 4.05(a)(iii), after the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not, without the prior written consent of the Sellers, file any amended Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(e)    COOPERATION. The Sellers, the Company and the Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives reasonably to cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns of the Company or its Subsidiaries and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all taxable periods relating to Taxes, including maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes including audit reports relating to Taxes.

(f)    TAX SHARING AGREEMENTS. The Sellers shall cause the provisions of any Tax sharing agreement between the Sellers or any of their Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to be terminated on or before the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, no party shall have any rights or obligations under any such Tax sharing agreement.

All Proxy Compliant Financials shall comply as to form with the applicable requirements of SEC Schedule 14A and SEC Regulations S-K and S-X, and shall fairly present the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows as of the respective dates thereof and for the respective periods indicated (subject, with respect to interim financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments).

SECTION 7.04.    INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES.

(a)    PROCEDURES. In order for an indemnified party (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall, within twenty (20) days following the discovery of the matters giving rise to any Loss, notify the indemnifying party (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing of its claim for indemnification for such Loss, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such Loss and the amount of the liability estimated to accrue therefrom; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Indemnified Party failed to give such notice). Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party's receipt thereof, all information and documentation reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Loss; provided, however, that failure to make such delivery shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

If the indemnification sought pursuant hereto involves a claim made by a third party (which shall not include any of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or Purchaser or its Affiliates) against the Indemnified Party (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM"), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all of the parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party's request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information which are relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party may recommend and which by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim; provided that if such settlement, compromise or discharge would impose a material order, material injunction or other material non-monetary damages on the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or compromise such Third Party Claim without prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party's prior written consent.

(b)    PROCEDURES RELATING TO INDEMNIFICATION OF TAX CLAIMS.

(i)    If one party is responsible for the payment of Taxes pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement (the "TAX INDEMNIFYING PARTY"), and the other party to this Agreement

A-43




(the "TAX INDEMNIFIED PARTY") receives a notice of deficiency, proposed adjustment, adjustment, assessment, audit, examination, suit, dispute or other claim (a "TAX CLAIM") with respect (in whole or in part) to such Taxes, the Tax Indemnified Party shall notify the Tax Indemnifying Party in writing of such Tax Claim in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.04(a).

(ii)    The Tax Indemnifying Party, at its own cost and expense, shall assume and control the applicable audit or examination and the defense of a Tax Claim involving any Taxes for which it has an obligation to indemnify the Tax Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement, and the Tax Indemnified Party and its Affiliates agree to cooperate with the Tax Indemnifying Party in pursuing such contest, including execution of any powers of attorney in favor of the Tax Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Tax Indemnifying Party shall keep the Tax Indemnified Party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax Claim and the Tax Indemnified Party, at its own cost and expense and with its own counsel, shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the applicable audit or examination and defense of such Tax Claim.

In no case shall any Tax Indemnified Party settle or otherwise compromise any Tax Claim without the Tax Indemnifying Party's prior written consent. Neither party shall settle a Tax Claim relating solely to Income Taxes of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a Straddle Period without the other party's prior written consent.

SECTION 7.05.    SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; LIMITATIONS ON INDEMNIFICATION.    (a)     The representations and warranties of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement and in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing and shall expire one (1) year after the Closing Date, except that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.06(b), 2.06(c), 2.13, 2.16(b), 3.08(b), 3.08(c), 3.14 and 3.17(b), as well as the parties' indemnification obligations under Section 7.01, shall survive until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date, and the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.05, 2.24, 3.01, 3.02 and 3.03, as well as the Sellers' indemnification obligations under Section 7.06, shall not terminate.

In the event that any of the Indemnification Shares are delivered to Purchaser in satisfaction (in whole or in part) of any claim pursuant to this Article VII, the Sellers' Cap shall be proportionately reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate Average Stock Price of such Indemnification Shares so delivered to Purchaser (as calculated in accordance with Section 4.13).

(b)    Purchaser and each Seller shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to which one party is obligated to indemnify the other party hereunder including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability. With respect to monetary remedies for valid claims in favor of the Purchaser Indemnitees, during the term of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, Purchaser Indemnitees shall first seek recourse against the Indemnification Shares, pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, and shall be entitled to pursue other monetary remedies only to the extent that the Indemnification Shares are not sufficient to compensate all Purchaser Indemnitees' Losses. The Indemnification Shares and the provisions of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement shall not limit any Purchaser Indemnitee's other rights of recovery expressly set forth herein (including, without limitation, any and all rights to indemnification hereunder from and after the expiration of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement). Except in the case of any fraudulent conduct, fraudulent misrepresentation or other willful misconduct and except for equitable remedies (including, without limitation, the right to seek specific performance or other injunctive relief with respect to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking, or obligation of Purchaser, Sellers or the Company set forth in this Agreement) and for remedies which cannot be waived as a matter of law, the rights to indemnification provided for in this Article VII shall constitute the sole post-Closing remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement, and the Purchaser and Sellers shall have no other liability or damages to any other party resulting from any such claims.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sellers' indemnification obligations set forth in this Section 7.06 shall not be subject to any limitation contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including, without limitation, any of the limitations set forth in Sections 7.05(a)(i) and 7.05(a)(ii) hereof); provided, however, that (i) with respect to any IP Letter Exposure incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee during the term of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, Purchaser Indemnitees shall first seek recourse against the Indemnification Shares, pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification

A-45




Escrow Agreement, and shall be entitled to pursue other monetary remedies only to the extent that the Indemnification Shares are not sufficient to compensate all Purchaser Indemnitees for any and all IP Letter Exposure; (ii) the Sellers' Cap shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by an amount equal to the indemnification obligations of Sellers under this Section 7.06, up to a maximum reduction of US$1,000,000 (and any amount of Sellers' indemnification obligations under this Section 7.06 in excess of US$1,000,000 shall not further reduce the Sellers' Cap and shall be in addition to all other indemnification obligations of Sellers under this Article VII up to the full amount of the IP Letter Exposure); and (iii) Sellers shall not be liable pursuant to this Section 7.06 for any Losses (or any license, royalty, payment, settlement or other obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) suffered or incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee unless the aggregate of all such Losses (or license, royalty, payment, settlement or other obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) exceeds, on a cumulative basis, an amount equal to (Euro) 25,000, in which case such Purchaser Indemnitee may recover the full amount of all Losses (or license, royalty, payment, settlement or other obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries).

(b)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the date hereof, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Purchaser and any director, officer, employee, agent, consultant, advisor, Related Person or other representative, including legal counsel, accountants and financial advisors, of Purchaser that shall be designated by Purchaser shall be kept promptly informed with respect to any discussions or negotiations between Sellers, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the parties set forth in the IP Letter, or any of their respective Affiliates, customers or licensees, on the other hand, relating to the matters referred to in the IP Letter. Such obligation to inform shall include the retention and (upon Purchaser's request) the provision to Purchaser of records and information which are relevant to such matters, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. In addition, Investcorp shall be entitled to participate in any discussions or negotiations between Sellers, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the parties set forth in the IP Letter, or any of their respective Affiliates, customers or licensees, on the other hand, relating to the matters referred to in the IP Letter.

SECTION 7.07.    CALCULATION OF INDEMNITY PAYMENTS.    The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article VII shall be net of any amounts recovered or recoverable by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss and shall be (a) increased to take account of any net Tax cost actually incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (b) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising from the incurrence or payment of any such indemnified amount, provided that the net amount of any such increase and decrease shall not cause the total amount to be paid to exceed the maximum amounts set forth in Section 7.05 (excluding any indemnification amounts payable under Section 7.06 hereof, which shall not be subject to any such limitations contained in Section 7.05 and shall only be subject to the limitations expressly set forth in Section 7.06). In computing the amount of any such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment of any indemnified amount.

SECTION 7.08.    TAX TREATMENT OF INDEMNIFICATION.    For all Tax purposes, the Purchaser and Sellers agree to treat any indemnity payment under this Agreement as an adjustment to the purchase price for the Shares unless a final determination of the Taxing Authority in any relevant jurisdiction provides otherwise.

SECTION 7.09.    AUDIT ADJUSTMENTS RELATING TO TAXES.    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.01, if as a result of a Tax audit that involves the Company or its Subsidiaries there is an adjustment to an item (i) which results in a Tax liability for a Pre-Closing Tax Period and a corresponding Tax benefit for a Post-Closing Tax Period, then Sellers shall not be obligated to indemnify Purchaser for such Pre-Closing Tax Period Tax liability to the extent of such Post Closing Tax Period Tax benefit or (ii) which results in a Tax liability for a Post-Closing Tax Period and a

A-46




corresponding Tax benefit for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, then Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the amount of such Tax benefit, but not in excess of any amount previously paid by Sellers to Purchaser pursuant to clause (4) of Section 4.05(a)(ii) in respect of such item.

March 29, 2005

Board of Directors
Wireless Telecom Group, Inc.
25 Eastmans Road
Parsippany, NJ 07054

Gentlemen:

We have been advised that Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (the "Company") is contemplating a transaction whereby the Company will acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Willtek Communications GmbH ("Willtek") (the "Transaction") in exchange for eight million shares of newly issued Company common stock (the "Purchase Consideration"). We have been retained to render an opinion as to whether, on the date of such opinion, the Purchase Consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company's stockholders.

We have not been requested to opine as to, and the opinion does not in any manner address, the underlying business decision of the Company to proceed with or affect the Transaction. We were not asked to consider, and our opinion does not address the relative merits of the Transaction as compared to any alternative business strategy that might exist for the Company.

In arriving at our opinion, we took into account an assessment of general economic, market and financial conditions as well as our experience in connection with similar transactions and securities valuations generally and, among other things: (i) reviewed the Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, Willtek, Investcorp Technology Ventures LP, and Damany Holdings GMBH (the "Agreement"); (ii) reviewed publicly available financial information and other data with respect to the Company, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14-A, dated April 22, 2004, and the preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14-A filed March 7, 2005; (iii) reviewed other non-public financial information and other data with respect to the Company, including a draft of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004; (iv) reviewed financial information and other data with respect to Willtek, including the audited financial report for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, and internal management financial statements for the eleven months ended February 28, 2005; (v) reviewed and analyzed the relative historical and projected financial performance and historical book value of assets of both the Company and Willtek and the combined company with expected synergy gains; (vi) considered the historical financial results and present financial condition of each of the Company and Willtek; (vii) reviewed certain publicly available information concerning the trading of, and the trading market for, the common stock of the Company; (viii) reviewed and analyzed the free cash flows of each of the Company and Willtek and prepared a discounted cash flow analysis for each company; (ix) reviewed and analyzed certain financial characteristics of companies that were deemed to have characteristics comparable to those of each of the Company and Willtek; (x) reviewed and analyzed certain financial characteristics of target companies in transactions where such target company was deemed to have characteristics comparable to those of the Company; (xi) reviewed and discussed with representatives of Company and Willtek management certain financial and operating information furnished by them, including financial analyses with respect to their respective business and operations as well as correspondence and analyses related to alleged intellectual property infringement; (xii) inquired about and discussed the Transaction and other matters related thereto with the Company and Willtek management and the Company's legal advisors; and (xiii) performed such other analyses and examinations as were deemed appropriate.

Board of Directors

In arriving at our opinion we have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of all of the financial and other information that was used by us without assuming any responsibility for any independent verification of any such information and have further relied upon the assurances of Company and Willtek management that each is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would make any such information inaccurate or misleading. With respect to the financial information utilized, we assumed that such information has been reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments, and that such information provides a reasonable basis upon which we could make our analysis and form an opinion. We have not made a physical inspection of the properties and facilities of the Company or Willtek and have not made or obtained any evaluations or appraisals of the assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise). We have not attempted to confirm whether the Company or Willtek have good title to their respective assets.

We assumed that the Transaction will be consummated in a manner that complies in all respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and all other applicable federal and state statues, rules and regulations. It is further assumed that the Transaction will comply with all applicable German and other international laws, statutes, rules and regulations that are deemed applicable. We assumed that the Transaction will be consummated substantially in accordance with the terms set forth in the Agreement, without any further amendments thereto, and without waiver by the Company of any of the conditions to any obligations or in the alternative that any such amendments, revisions or waivers thereto will not be detrimental to the Company or to its stockholders.

Our opinion is necessarily based upon market, economic and other conditions, as they exist on, and could be evaluated as of March 29, 2005. Accordingly, although subsequent developments may affect our opinion, we do not assume any obligation to update, review or reaffirm our opinion.

Our opinion is for the use and benefit of the Company's Board of Directors in connection with its consideration of the Transaction and is not intended to be and does not constitute a recommendation to any Company stockholder as to how such stockholder should vote with respect to the Transaction. We do not express any opinion as to the underlying valuation or future performance of either the Company or Willtek or the price at which the Company's common stock would trade at any time in the future.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that, as of the date of this letter, the Purchase Consideration is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company's stockholders.

In connection with our services, we have previously received a retainer and will receive the balance of our fee upon the rendering of this opinion. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities that may arise out of the rendering this opinion.

Our opinion is for the use and benefit of the Board of Directors and is rendered in connection with its consideration of the Transaction and may not be used by the Company for any other purpose or reproduced, disseminated, quoted or referred to by the Company at any time, in any manner or for any purpose, without the prior written consent of Capitalink, except that this opinion may be reproduced in full in, and references to the opinion and to Capitalink and its relationship with the Company may be included in filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission if required by Securities and Exchange Commission rules, and in any proxy statement or similar disclosure document disseminated to shareholders if required by the Securities and Exchange Commission rules.

Very truly yours,

Capitalink, L.C.

SECTION 3.01.    Restrictions.    (a)    During the 12-month period following the Closing Date, in the case of Investcorp, and during the six (6)-month period following the Closing Date, in the case of Damany (the "TRANSFER RESTRICTED PERIOD"), Investcorp and Damany may not sell, dispose, convey, assign, pledge or otherwise transfer (collectively, "TRANSFER") any of the Acquisition Shares; provided, however, that (i) any member of the Investor Group shall have the right to Transfer Acquisition Shares to any Permitted Transferee and (ii) as a condition to any such Transfer to a Permitted Transferee, such Permitted Transferee shall execute a joinder agreement in which it shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as the members of the Investor Group and shall thereafter be deemed to be a member of the Investor Group for all purposes of this Agreement; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall prohibit the deposit of the Indemnification Shares into escrow with the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement. Subject to Section 3.01(b) and applicable U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws, after the Transfer Restricted Period, the members of the Investor Group shall not be restricted under this Section 3.01 from Transferring any Acquisition Shares.

(b)    (i)    If Investcorp shall, without the prior written approval of a majority of the Non-Investor Directors, knowingly Transfer any Acquisition Shares to any Person set forth on Schedule 3 hereto (the "COMPETITOR LIST") without complying with the provisions of Section 3.01(b)(ii)–(v) hereof, then immediately following the consummation of such Transfer: (i) each of the Investor Directors

C-6




designated by Investcorp shall resign from the Board effective immediately, and (ii) any and all rights of Investcorp to designate any Investor Director under Section 2.01 shall immediately terminate, notwithstanding the Total Ownership Amount of Investcorp. The Board may, no more than once during any six (6)-month period, replace up to two (2) of the Persons included on the Competitor List with two other Persons; provided, however, that no Person may be included in the Competitor List unless the Board (by majority vote of the Non-Investor Directors) reasonably determines that such Person is a competitor of the Company and its Subsidiaries in a significant business line of the Company and its Subsidiaries (which, for purposes hereof, includes the business engaged by Willtek and its Subsidiaries).

(ii)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any member of the Investor Group receives a "bona fide" offer (an "OFFER") from any Person set forth on the Competitor List (the "OFFEROR") to purchase any Acquisition Shares owned by such member of the Investor Group and such member proposes to accept the Offer, such member of the Investor Group shall use its best efforts to obtain from the Offeror within three (3) days, but in no event later than ten (10) days, following the acceptance of the Offer by such member of the Investor Group, a statement, either in writing or in electronic format, addressed to such member of the Investor Group and signed by the Offeror (or bearing the name of an individual duly authorized to make the Offer on behalf of the Offeror, in the case of an electronic format) in as many counterparts as may be necessary (collectively, the "STATEMENT") setting forth (i) the date of the Statement; (ii) the number of Acquisition Shares covered by the Offer, the price per Acquisition Share to be paid by the Offeror (the "OFFER PRICE") and the terms of payment of such Offer Price; (iii) a statement that the Offer has been approved by the Offeror's board of directors (or the equivalent if the Offeror is not a corporation), if the Offeror is not an individual; and (iv) the Offeror's name, address and telephone number.

(iii)    Within two (2) days following the date of the Statement, such member of the Investor Group shall give notice to the Company (the "COMPANY NOTICE") stating that it proposes to accept the Offer and shall deliver with the Company Notice the Statement. The Company shall thereupon have the irrevocable and exclusive option, but not the obligation (the "OPTION"), to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Acquisition Shares which the Offeror has proposed to purchase from such member of the Investor Group (the "SUBJECT SHARES") for the purchase price and on the terms set forth in Section 3.01(b)(v). The Option shall be exercised by the Company by giving notice (the "OPTION NOTICE") to such member of the Investor Group within ten (10) days following the date of the Company Notice that the Company elects to exercise the Option. Upon exercise of the Option, the Company shall have the obligation to purchase the Subject Shares on and subject to the terms and conditions hereof. Failure by the Company to exercise the Option or to give an Option Notice shall be deemed an election by it not to exercise the Option.

(iv)    If the Subject Shares are to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the Option, then such purchase shall, unless the parties thereto otherwise agree, be completed at a closing to be held at the principal office of the Company at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the tenth (10th) Business Day following the exercise of the Option. If the Option is not exercised pursuant to this Section 3.01(b), such member of the Investor Group shall be entitled to Transfer, subject to the provisions of Sections 3.01(a) hereof, at any time during the 120-day period following the date on which the Company shall have elected not to purchase the Acquisition Shares pursuant to the Option (or shall have failed to exercise the Option within the time period set forth therein), all, but not less than all, of the Subject Shares to the Offeror for a purchase price that is no less than the Offer Price and upon terms that, in the aggregate, are no more favorable to the Offeror than those stated in the Offer. For purposes of clarification and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such Offeror shall not under any circumstances be deemed to be a member of the Investor Group upon purchase of any Acquisition Shares and, accordingly, such Offeror shall not be entitled under any circumstances to any of the rights to which a member of the Investor Group may be entitled under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 2.01 hereof. If the Subject Shares are not purchased by the Offeror within such 120-day period, the provisions in this Section 3.01(b) shall again

C-7




become effective, and no Transfer of such Subject Shares otherwise permitted by this Agreement may thereafter be made to any Person set forth on the Competitor List without again being subject to the provisions of this Section 3.01(b).

(v)    The purchase price for any Subject Shares sold pursuant to the Option shall be an amount equal to the Offer Price. The purchase and sale shall otherwise be on the applicable terms and conditions of the Offer. The full amount of the purchase price for any Subject Shares purchased by the Company pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) shall be paid in full in cash, or by certified or cashier's check, at the closing described in Section 3.01(b)(iv). In the event that the Offer involved provides for payment for any of the Subject Shares, in whole or in part, by means of any consideration other than cash, the Company may purchase the Subject Shares for such consideration, if reasonably available to the Company, or if not, for its cash equivalent. The cash equivalent of such consideration shall be fixed by a competent independent appraiser mutually selected by the Company and the member of the Investor Group to whom the Offer is addressed, and such parties shall instruct such independent appraiser to conduct an appraisal as promptly as practicable, provided that any such appraisal shall not delay the 10-day period referred to in Section 3.01(b)(iii). In the event the Company and such member of the Investor Group cannot select a mutually acceptable appraiser, each shall select a competent, independent appraiser, which appraisers shall then select a third competent, independent appraiser, whose determination as to value shall be conclusive and binding on the parties.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any member of the Investor Group may Transfer shares of Common Stock pursuant to (i) any merger, consolidation or other transaction which has been approved by the Board and the shareholders of the Company or (ii) any tender offer or exchange offer made by the Company.

(d)    All Transfers of Acquisition Shares by the Investor Group shall be made (i) in accordance with Rule 144, (ii) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (iii) in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws.

SECTION 3.02.    Legends.    (a)    Except as set forth in Section 3.02(b), all certificates representing Acquisition Shares Beneficially Owned by the Investor Group shall bear an appropriate restrictive legend indicating that such Acquisition Shares are subject to restrictions pursuant to this Agreement and that such shares were not issued pursuant to a public offering registered pursuant to the Securities Act.

(b)    Prior to any Transfer or proposed Transfer of Beneficial Ownership by any members of the Investor Group of any Acquisition Shares to any Person (other than pursuant to an effective Demand Registration Statement filed by the Company pursuant to Article IV hereof), such member shall give written notice to the Company of its intention to effect such Transfer. Each such notice shall describe the manner of the proposed Transfer and, if requested by the Company, shall be accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company (it being agreed and acknowledged that Linklaters Oppenhoff & Rädler is satisfactory counsel) to the effect that the proposed Transfer may be effected pursuant to a then-effective Registration Statement or without registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 3.01, such member shall be entitled to Transfer such stock in accordance with the terms of its notice. Each certificate for Acquisition Shares transferred as above provided shall bear the legends provided in Section 3.02(a), except that such certificate shall not bear such legends as they relate to the Securities Act if (i) such transfer is made under an effective Registration Statement or in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 (or any other rule permitting public sale without registration under the Securities Act) or (ii) the opinion of counsel referred to above is to the further effect that the transferee and any subsequent transferee (other than an Affiliate of the Company) would be entitled to Transfer such securities in a public sale without registration under the Securities Act.

ARTICLE IV
REGISTRATION RIGHTS

SECTION 4.01.    Demand Registration.    (a)    During the period commencing on the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date and expiring on the date on which the Company's obligations under

C-8




this Section 4.01 shall terminate in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01(f) below (such period, the "DEMAND PERIOD"), Holders of not less than 25% of the Registrable Securities may make a written request to the Company (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Persons and the intended method of distribution thereof) that the Company register any and all of the Registrable Securities requested to be so registered by filing with the SEC a Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities (a "DEMAND REGISTRATION STATEMENT"). Upon the receipt of such a request, the Company shall promptly notify all Holders from whom notice has not been received, and such Holders shall then be entitled within ten (10) days thereafter to request the Company to include in such Demand Registration Statement all or any portion of their Registrable Securities. Not later than the forty-fifth (45th) day after the earlier of (i) the expiration of such 10-day period and (ii) the date on which all Holders have indicated their intention to have Registrable Securities held by them included in such Demand Registration Statement, and provided the Company is then in the Demand Period, the Company shall cause to be filed a Demand Registration Statement providing for the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof specified in such request, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have such Demand Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter and to keep such Demand Registration Statement continuously effective for a period of time necessary following the date on which such Demand Registration Statement is declared effective for the underwriters or Selling Holders, as applicable, to sell all the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement, but in any event a period of no more than 150 days following the date on which such Demand Registration Statement is declared effective (the "SELLING PERIOD") or such shorter period which will terminate when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto (including, if necessary, by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Demand Registration Statement or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Demand Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Demand Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, any state securities or "blue sky" laws, or any other rules and regulations thereunder). The Company shall not be required to cause to be effective more than two (2) Demand Registration Statements pursuant to this Section 4.01. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, at any time that the Company is eligible to register a primary offering of securities on Form S-3 (or its successor Form) under the General Instructions to such Form, the Selling Holders shall be entitled to require that either or both of the demand registrations hereunder be effected as a shelf registration in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any similar rule that may be adopted by the SEC), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Demand Registration Statement effecting such shelf registration continuously effective during the period from the date the Demand Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC until the earlier to occur of (i) the second (2nd) anniversary of the effective date of such Demand Registration Statement, (ii) following the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the first date on which all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group represent less than 1% of all then Outstanding Shares, or (iii) the first date on which no member of the Investor Group is an "affiliate" of the Company as such term is defined in Rule 144 and all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group may be sold to the public without SEC registration in a single transaction under Rule 144(k).

(b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 4.01(e), a Demand Registration Statement shall be deemed not to have become effective (and the related registration shall be deemed not to have been effected) unless it has been declared effective by the SEC; provided, however, that if, after it has been declared effective, the offering of any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court (other than any such stop order or injunction issued as a result of the inclusion in such Demand Registration Statement of any information supplied to the

C-9




Company for inclusion therein by a Selling Holder), the Selling Period shall be extended by that number of days during which such stop order, injunction or other order or requirement remains in effect or is not reversed, vacated, waived or otherwise lifted.

(c)    If at any time or from time to time any Selling Holder desires to sell Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to a Demand Registration Statement, the underwriters, including the managing underwriter, shall be selected by the Selling Holders and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company.

(d)    If a registration pursuant to this Section 4.01 involves an underwritten offering of the securities being registered (an "UNDERWRITTEN OFFERING"), which securities are to be distributed on a firm commitment basis by or through one or more underwriters of recognized standing, and the underwriter or the managing underwriter, as the case may be, of such Underwritten Offering shall inform the Company and the Selling Holders that, in its opinion, the amount of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the amount which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the securities being offered, then the Company will include in such registration only the amount of Registrable Securities and other securities that the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering; provided,however, that the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration that the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering shall be allocated pro rata among the Selling Holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered by all Selling Holders.

(e)    The Selling Holders, at any time prior to the effective date of a Demand Registration Statement, may revoke the Demand Registration Statement, without liability to any Holder except as may be provided under this Section 4.01(e), by providing a written notice to the Company revoking such request. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.01(b), any Demand Registration Statement revoked by Selling Holders (whether before or after such Demand Registration Statement has been declared effective) shall be deemed to have been "effective" for purposes of this Agreement unless the Selling Holders, within 30 days of such revocation, reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Demand Registration Statement so revoked.

(f)    The Company's obligations under this Section 4.01 shall terminate upon the first date on which: (i) following the first anniversary of the Closing Date, all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group represent less than 1% of all then Outstanding Shares, or (ii) no member of the Investor Group is an "affiliate" of the Company as such term is defined in Rule 144 (other than in situations in which the only reason no member of the Investor Group is such an "affiliate" is the Company's breach of its obligations under Section 2.01) and all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group may be sold to the public without SEC registration in a single transaction under Rule 144(k).

SECTION 4.02.    Incidental Registration.    (a)    If during the period commencing on the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date and expiring on the date on which the Company's obligations under this Section 4.02 shall terminate in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02(d) below, the Company proposes to register under the Securities Act any shares of Common Stock for sale for its own account or for the account of any other Person, other than pursuant to Section 4.01 (other than (i) any Registration Statement relating to any employee benefit or similar plan or any dividend reinvestment plan, (ii) pursuant to a Registration Statement filed in connection with an exchange offer or (iii) in connection with a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act), the Company shall give written notice to each Holder at least 10 days prior to the initial filing of a Registration Statement with the SEC pertaining thereto (an "INCIDENTAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT") informing such Holder of its intent to file such Incidental Registration Statement and of such Holder's rights under this Section 4.02 to request registration of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder. Upon the written request of any Holder made within 10 days after any such notice is given (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such Holder), the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that the Company has been so requested to register by such Holder,

C-10




including, if necessary, by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Incidental Registration Statement or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Incidental Registration Statement, if required, by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Incidental Registration Statement or by the Securities Act or by any other rules and regulations thereunder.

(b)    If a registration pursuant to this Section 4.02 involves an Underwritten Offering and the underwriter or the managing underwriter, as the case may be, of such Underwritten Offering shall inform the Company and the Selling Holders that, in its opinion, the amount of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the amount which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the distribution of the securities being offered, then the Company will include in such registration only the amount of Registrable Securities and other securities that the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering; provided, however, that the Company shall be required to include in such required registration: first, all the securities initially proposed to be sold pursuant to such Incidental Registration Statement by the Company, and second, the amount of Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included in such registration that the Company is so advised can be sold in such offering, allocated pro rata among the Selling Holders and other security holders of the Company requesting such registration on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities and other securities requested to be included by all Selling Holders and other security holders.

(c)    The Company may, at any time prior to the effective date of an Incidental Registration Statement, revoke such Incidental Registration Statement without liability to any Holder, by providing a written notice of such revocation to the Selling Holders.

(d)    The Company's obligations under this Section 4.02 shall terminate after the first date on which: (i) following the first anniversary of the Closing Date, all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group represent less than 1% of all then Outstanding Shares, or (ii) no member of the Investor Group is an "affiliate" of the Company as such term is defined in Rule 144 (other than in situations in which the only reason no member of the Investor Group is such an "affiliate" is the Company's breach of its obligations under Section 2.01) and all Registrable Securities held by all members of the Investor Group may be sold to the public without SEC registration in a single transaction under Rule 144(k).

SECTION 4.03.    Registration Expenses.    The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02. Each Holder selling Registrable Securities pursuant to any Demand Registration Statement or Incidental Registration Statement shall pay all discounts and commissions payable to underwriters, selling brokers, managers or other similar Persons, transfer taxes, if any, and all fees and disbursements of legal counsel not included as Registration Expenses hereunder, related to the sale or disposition of such Registrable Securities in proportions to the amount of such Holder's Registrable Securities included in any Demand Registration Statement or any Incidental Registration Statement as compared to all Registrable Securities so included.

SECTION 4.04.    Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities.    If requested by the underwriter or managing underwriter in any Underwritten Offering (by the Company or any other Person) of Common Stock or of any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or of warrants or other securities entitling the holder thereof to purchase Common Stock, each Holder shall agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of Common Stock during the 30-day period prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on, the date of sale of securities in connection with such Underwritten Offering.

SECTION 4.05.    Registration Procedures.    In connection with the obligations of the Company pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect or cause to be effected the registration under the Securities Act of the Registrable Securities entitled to be included in such registration in order to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with their intended method or methods of distribution, and the Company shall:

C-11




(a)    (i)     prepare and file a Registration Statement with the SEC (within the time period specified in Section 4.01 in the case of a Demand Registration Statement) which Registration Statement (x) shall be on a form selected by the Company for which the Company qualifies, (y) shall be available for the sale or exchange of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution, and (z) shall comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements required by the SEC to be filed therewith, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective (and remain effective in accordance with Section 4.01 in the case of a Demand Registration Statement), and (iii) furnish to the Holders selling Registrable Securities copies of reasonably complete drafts of all such documents proposed to be filed (including exhibits) within a reasonable time prior to filing such Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, and any Holder shall have the opportunity to consent to any information pertaining solely to that Holder that is contained therein (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Company shall consider in good faith such reasonable changes in any such document as shall reasonably be requested by such Holder with respect to such information prior to filing the Registration Statement (provided, however, that in the case of an Incidental Registration Statement, if such Holder does not provide such consent within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such information pertaining to such Holder, such Holder shall not be entitled to have any of its Registrable Securities included in such Incidental Registration Statement) and (iv) cause each Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of such Registration Statement, amendment or supplement (x) to comply in all material respects with any requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC and (y) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(b)    in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, subject to Section 4.05(j), prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each such Demand Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Demand Registration Statement effective for the applicable required period set forth herein with respect thereto; cause each prospectus forming part of such Demand Registration Statement to be supplemented by any required prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by each Demand Registration Statement during the applicable required period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the Selling Holders, as set forth in such Registration Statement;

(d)    (i)    use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement, no later than the time such Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC, under all applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as each underwriter, if any, or any Selling Holder shall reasonably request; (ii) in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration or qualification to remain effective during the period such Demand Registration Statement is required to be kept effective; and (iii) do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary to enable each such underwriter, if any, and Selling Holder to consummate the disposition in each such jurisdiction of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to register or qualify any Registrable Securities in any

C-12




jurisdiction if registration or qualification in such jurisdiction would subject the Company to unreasonable burden or expense or, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, would unreasonably delay the commencement of such Underwritten Offering; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject or to consent to be subject to general service of process (other than service of process in connection with such registration or qualification or any sale of Registrable Securities in connection therewith) in any such jurisdiction;

(e)    advise each Selling Holder promptly (i) when a Registration Statement has become effective and when any post-effective amendments and supplements thereto become effective, (ii) during the period in which the securities are to be offered and sold under an Incidental Registration Statement or, in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, during the period in which the Company is required hereunder to keep a Demand Registration Statement effective, of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose, (iii) if, between the effective date of a Registration Statement and the closing of any sale of Registrable Securities covered thereby pursuant to any agreement to which the Company is a party, the representations and warranties of the Company contained in such agreement cease to be true and correct in all material respects or if the Company receives any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of such Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, and (iv) of the happening of any event during the period in which the securities are to be offered and sold under an Incidental Registration Statement or, in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, during the period a Demand Registration Statement is required hereunder to be effective as a result of which such Registration Statement or the related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(f)    furnish counsel for each underwriter, if any, and for each Selling Holder copies of any request by the SEC or any state securities authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement and prospectus or for additional information;

(g)    upon request, furnish to the underwriter or managing underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if any, without charge, at least one signed copy of each Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference and all exhibits; and furnish to each Selling Holder, without charge, at least one conformed copy of each Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto (without documents incorporated therein by reference or exhibits thereto, unless requested);

(h)    cooperate with each Selling Holder and the underwriter or managing underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and enable such Registrable Securities to be in such denominations (consistent with the provisions of the governing documents thereof) and registered in such names as each Selling Holder or the underwriter or managing underwriter of an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, if any, may reasonably request at least three business days prior to any sale of Registrable Securities;

(i)    upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 4.05(e)(iv), during the period in which the securities are to be offered and sold under an Incidental Registration Statement or, in the case of a Demand Registration Statement, during the period in which a Demand Registration Statement is required hereunder to be kept in effect, use its commercially reasonable efforts to prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement or the related prospectus, or any document incorporated therein as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement, such that such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

C-13




(j)    in the case of an Underwritten Offering, enter into underwriting agreements in customary form and take all other customary and appropriate actions in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement as shall be reasonably requested by the underwriters, and in connection therewith:

(i)    make such representations and warranties to the underwriters, if any, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in similar underwritten offerings;

(ii)    obtain opinions of counsel to the Company and updates thereof (which counsel and opinions (in form, scope and substance) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the managing underwriters and the Selling Holders and which shall in any event include customary "10b-5" negative assurances as to the disclosures in the Demand Registration Statement and related prospectus or prospectuses) addressed to each Selling Holder and the underwriters covering the matters customarily covered in opinions requested in sales of securities or underwritten offerings and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by such underwriters and Selling Holders;

(iii)    obtain "cold comfort" letters and updates thereof from the Company's independent certified public accountants addressed to the underwriters, which letters shall be customary in form and shall cover matters of the type customarily covered in "cold comfort" letters to underwriters in connection with primary underwritten offerings; and

(iv)    deliver such customary documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the managing underwriters;

(k)    use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be listed on any securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed if so requested by the Selling Holders;

(l)    otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, the NASD and the AMEX;

(m)    otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, and make available to its Selling Holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 promulgated thereunder; and

(n)    make available for inspection by any Selling Holder, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter (collectively, the "INSPECTORS"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the "RECORDS") as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to make available all information reasonably requested by any such Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement.

SECTION 4.06.    Obligations of Selling Holders.    (a)    Each Selling Holder shall, as a condition to the exercise of any registration rights of such Person provided herein, furnish to the Company such information and materials regarding such Person, the ownership of Registrable Securities by such Person and the proposed distribution by such Person of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in writing. Each Selling Holder shall, as a condition to

C-14




participating in any Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities, enter into such agreements as the underwriters thereof may reasonably request from time to time. Each Selling Holder shall promptly update in writing any information or materials provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 4.06(a) to the extent necessary to maintain the accuracy and completeness thereof and the Company shall promptly update any Registration Statement to reflect such updated information. Each Selling Holder shall take all such action as may be reasonably required by the Company to permit the Company to comply with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

(b)    Promptly upon receipt of any written notice of the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 4.05(e)(ii) or (iv), each Selling Holder shall, and shall cause its agents to, forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the affected Registration Statement until such Person's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 4.05(i), and, if so directed by the Company, such Person shall deliver to the Company all copies in its possession, other than permanent file copies then in such Person's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities which was current at the time of receipt of such notice. Without limiting the foregoing, each Selling Holder shall, and shall cause its agents to, use only the current prospectus, as amended or supplemented from time to time, that is made available to such Selling Holder by the Company for use in connection with the disposition of such Selling Holder's Registrable Securities.

(c)    Each Selling Holder agrees that it will not effect any disposition under any effective Registration Statement of any Acquisition Shares or other Registrable Securities other than in accordance with the plan of distribution of such securities described in such Registration Statement.

SECTION 4.07.    Indemnification.    (d) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Person who participates as an underwriter (any such Person being an "UNDERWRITER"), each Selling Holder and their respective partners, directors, officers and employees and each Person, if any, who controls any Selling Holder or Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act as follows:

(i)    against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and reasonable expenses whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) pursuant to which Registrable Securities were registered under the Securities Act, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) including all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii)    against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and reasonable expenses whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any other claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or misleading statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue or misleading statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the prior written consent of the Company; and

(iii)    against any and all reasonable expense whatsoever, as incurred (including, subject to Section 4.07(c), fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, in each case whether or not such Person is a party, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or (ii) above; provided, however, that this indemnity agreement does not apply to any Selling Holder or Underwriter with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment, settlement or expense to the extent arising out of (A) any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission (1) made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Person expressly for use in

C-15




a Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any related prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or (2) if such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was corrected in an amended or supplemented Registration Statement or prospectus and the Company had furnished or made available copies thereof to the Underwriter or Selling Holder from which the Person asserting such loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment, settlement or expense purchased the securities that are the subject thereof prior to the date of sale by such Underwriter or Selling Holder to such Person, or (B) the failure of such Selling Holder to comply with its obligations set forth in Section 4.06.

(e)    Indemnification by Sellers, Underwriters, Etc. Each Selling Holder shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each Underwriter and the other Selling Holders, and each of their respective partners, directors, officers and employees (including each Director and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement) and each Person, if any, who controls the Company, any Underwriter or any other Selling Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments, settlements and expenses described in the indemnity contained in Section 4.07(a)(i)-(iii) (provided that any settlement of the type described therein is effected with the written consent of such Selling Holder), as incurred, but only with respect to (i) untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in a Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Selling Holder expressly for use in such Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or (ii) third party claims arising from the failure of such Selling Holder to comply with its obligations set forth in Section 4.06; provided, however, that an indemnifying Selling Holder shall not be required to provide indemnification in any amount in excess of the amount by which (x) the total price at which the Registrable Securities sold by such indemnifying Selling Holder and its affiliated indemnifying Selling Holders and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds (y) the amount of any damages which such indemnifying Selling Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. The Company shall be entitled, to the extent customary, to receive indemnification and contribution from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above with respect to information so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any prospectus or Registration Statement or amendment thereto.

(f)    Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Each indemnified party or parties shall give reasonably prompt notice to each indemnifying party or parties of any action or proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure so to notify an indemnifying party or parties shall not relieve it or them from any liability which it or they may have under this indemnity agreement, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. If the indemnifying party or parties so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, the indemnifying party or parties may assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party's or parties' expense with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party or parties and approved by the indemnified party defendant in such action or proceeding, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that, if such indemnified party or parties reasonably determine that a conflict of interest exists and that therefore it is advisable for such indemnified party or parties to be represented by separate counsel or that, upon advice of counsel, there may be legal defenses available to it or them which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party or parties shall be entitled to separate counsel (limited in each jurisdiction to one counsel for all Underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified parties under this Agreement) at the indemnifying party's or parties' expense. If any indemnifying party or parties does not assume such defense, after having received the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party or parties will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party or parties (limited in each jurisdiction to one counsel for all Underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified parties under this Agreement). In no event, however, will any indemnifying party or parties be liable

C-16




for any settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party or parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If an indemnifying party is entitled to assume, and assumes, the defense of such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, such indemnifying party or parties shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.07(c), be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified parties incurred thereafter in connection with such action or proceeding.

(g)    Contribution. (i)    In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Section 4.07 is for any reason held to be unenforceable or insufficient to hold harmless by the indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments, settlements and expenses suffered by an indemnified party referred to therein, each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments, settlements and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the liable Selling Holders (including, in each case, that of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments, settlements or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the liable Selling Holders (including, in each case, that of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or by or on behalf of the Selling Holders, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments, settlements and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.07(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.

(ii)    The Company and each Selling Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.07(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in sub-paragraph (i) above. Notwithstanding this Section 4.07(d), an indemnifying Selling Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which (A) the total price at which the Registrable Securities sold by such indemnifying Selling Holder and its affiliated indemnifying Selling Holders and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds (B) the amount of any damages which such indemnifying Selling Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(1) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(iii)    For purposes of this Section 4.07, each Person, if any, who controls a Selling Holder or an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Selling Holder or Underwriter; and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The indemnification required by this Section 4.07 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Losses are incurred and appropriate invoices or receipts therefor are presented to the indemnifying party.

SECTION 4.08.    Blackout Periods.    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled, for reasonable periods of time not to exceed 45 consecutive days and in no event to exceed more than an aggregate of 90 days during any 360-day period (a "BLACKOUT PERIOD"), to postpone and delay the filing or effectiveness of any Demand Registration Statement, or suspend the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, if a majority of the Non-Investor Directors

C-17




shall determine in their good faith judgment that any such filing or the offering of any Registrable Securities would (a) impede, delay or otherwise interfere with any material pending or contemplated acquisition or divestiture, or (b) require disclosure of material non-public information (other than information relating to an event described in clause (a) above) which, if disclosed at such time, would be detrimental to the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Upon written notice by the Company to each Holder of such determination, such Holder shall keep the fact of any such notice strictly confidential, and during any Blackout Period promptly halt any offer, sale, trading or transfer by it or any of its subsidiaries of any Common Stock for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and promptly halt any use, publication, dissemination or distribution of each prospectus included in the Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement thereto by it for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until such Blackout Period shall be earlier terminated in writing by the Company) and, if so directed by the Company, will deliver to the Company any copies then in its possession of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities.

SECTION 4.03.    Rule 144.    The Company shall timely file or furnish the reports required to be filed or furnished by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder, make publicly available such necessary information for so long as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act).

ARTICLE V

If during the Demand Period the Company is involved in a merger, consolidation or similar transaction in which the Common Stock is converted or exchanged into shares of capital stock of another Person, proper provision shall be made to cause Article IV to apply to such shares of capital stock from and after the consummation of that transaction, except that for purposes of Article IV, the terms "Registrable Securities" and "Common Stock" shall mean such shares of capital stock received in that transaction, and the calculation of "Outstanding Shares" and "Total Ownership Amount" shall be based on the shares of capital stock received in that transaction, in each case instead of the Common Stock.

(b)    All notices, requests, permissions, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) five (5) Business Days following sending by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, (b) when sent, if sent by facsimile; provided that the facsimile transmission is promptly confirmed by telephone, (c) when delivered, if delivered personally to the intended recipient and (d) one (1) business day following sending by overnight delivery via a national or international courier service and, in each case, addressed to a party at the following address for such party:

Annex E

ESCROW AGREEMENT

This Escrow Agreement (this "AGREEMENT") is made and entered into as of [                    ,] 2005 (the "EFFECTIVE DATE"), by and among Wireless Telecom Group, Inc., a New Jersey corporation ("PURCHASER"), Damany Holding GmbH, a private limited liability company organized under the laws of Germany and registered with the commercial register of the local court (Amtsgericht) of Munich under No. HRB 142 984 ("DAMANY"), Investcorp Technology Ventures LP, a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("INVESTCORP" and, together with Damany, the "SHAREHOLDERS"), which Shareholders immediately prior to the closing and consummation of the Acquisition (as defined below) are the holders of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Willtek Communications GmbH, a private limited liability company organized under the laws of Germany and registered with the commercial register of the local court (Amtsgericht) of Munich under No. HRB 46 733 (the "COMPANY"), and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Escrow Agent (the "ESCROW AGENT").

RECITALS

A.    Purchaser, the Company and the Shareholders have entered into an Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 29, 2005 (the "STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), pursuant to which Purchaser shall purchase from the Shareholders, and the Shareholders shall sell to Purchaser, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company (the "ACQUISITION"). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given them in the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto.

B.    Section 1.03(c) of the Stock Purchase Agreement provides that the Indemnification Shares are to be deducted and withheld from the Wireless Shares and placed in an escrow account (the "ESCROW ACCOUNT") to secure the indemnification obligations of the Shareholders to Purchaser and all other Purchaser Indemnitees as set forth in Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The number of Indemnification Shares required to be deposited in the Escrow Account by each Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement, the taxpayer identification number (or foreign equivalent) of each Shareholder, and the percentage interest of each Shareholder in the Indemnification Shares are set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

C.    Each Shareholder is entering into this Agreement as a material inducement and consideration for Purchaser to enter into the Stock Purchase Agreement and to consummate the Acquisition and as a condition precedent to consummation of the Acquisition, and the parties desire to set forth in this Agreement the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Indemnification Shares shall be deposited, held in, and disbursed from the Escrow Account.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows;

1.    ESCROW AND INDEMNIFICATION

(a)    ESCROW OF SHARES. At the Closing, Purchaser or its transfer agent shall deposit the Indemnification Shares with the Escrow Agent in the manner contemplated by Section 2(a) of this Agreement, accompanied by the required stock powers and a written notice making reference to this Agreement and identifying the shares so deposited as the Indemnification Shares. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Indemnification Shares in escrow as collateral for the indemnification obligations of the Shareholders under Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement until the Escrow Agent is required to release such Indemnification Shares in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term "INDEMNIFICATION SHARES" shall include all "ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION SHARES" as that term is defined in Section 2(b) of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent agrees to accept delivery of the Indemnification Shares and to hold such Indemnification Shares (and stock powers) in escrow subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b)    INDEMNIFICATION. Purchaser and all other Purchaser Indemnitees are indemnified pursuant to the terms of Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement (which terms are incorporated

E-1




herein by reference) from and against any Losses, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.05 of the Stock Purchase Agreement and in this Agreement (excluding any indemnification amounts payable under Section 7.06 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, which shall not be subject to any such limitations contained in Section 7.05 and shall only be subject to the limitations expressly set forth in Section 7.06 of the Stock Purchase Agreement). The Indemnification Shares shall be security for these indemnification obligations, subject to the terms and conditions of Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement and this Agreement. With respect to monetary remedies for valid claims, during the Escrow Period, Purchaser Indemnitees shall first seek recourse against the Indemnification Shares, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall be entitled to pursue other monetary remedies, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7.05 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, only to the extent that the Indemnification Shares are not sufficient to compensate all Purchaser Indemnitees' Losses. The Indemnification Shares and the provisions of this Agreement shall not limit any Purchaser Indemnitee's other rights of recovery expressly set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement (including, without limitation, any and all rights to indemnification thereunder from and after the expiration of the Escrow Period).

(c)    NOTICE OF CLAIM. As used herein, the term "CLAIM" means a claim for indemnification under Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement made by Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnitee. Purchaser is authorized to make Claims on behalf of any other Purchaser Indemnitee. A Purchaser Indemnitee shall give written notice of a Claim (a "NOTICE OF CLAIM") to the Shareholders and the Escrow Agent in the manner set forth in Section 7.04 of the Stock Purchase Agreement. No delay on the part of any Purchaser Indemnitee in giving the Shareholders notice of a Claim shall relieve any Shareholder from any of its obligations under Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, except to the extent any Shareholder shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that any Shareholder shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during the period in which the Purchaser Indemnitee failed to give such notice).

(d)    ESCROW PERIOD. As used herein, the term "ESCROW PERIOD" means that time period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall deliver to Escrow Agent written notice of the Closing Date (with a copy to the Shareholders), on which Escrow Agent may rely without inquiry.

(e)    ESCROW DEDUCTIONS. Payments for finally determined Claims shall be deducted ratably from the Indemnification Shares of the Shareholders in proportion to their respective percentage interests in the Indemnification Shares set forth on Exhibit A.

(f)    NO ELECTION OF REMEDIES. Purchaser and any other Purchaser Indemnitee may obtain satisfaction of any valid Claims against the Shareholders pursuant to Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement in accordance with this Agreement without first seeking satisfaction of such Claims directly against the Company or any Shareholder and without rescinding or attempting to rescind the transactions consummated pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. The assertion of a right to satisfy any single Claim hereunder (or the satisfaction thereof in accordance with this Agreement) will not bar Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnitee from seeking or obtaining satisfaction of any other Claims hereunder. Purchaser and any other Purchaser Indemnitee need not exhaust any other remedies that may be available to it, but rather may proceed directly in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

2.    DEPOSIT OF INDEMNIFICATION SHARES; RELEASE FROM ESCROW.

(a)    DELIVERY OF INDEMNIFICATION SHARES. At the Closing: (i) the Indemnification Shares allocable to each Shareholder as shown on Exhibit A (the "INITIAL INDEMNIFICATION SHARES") shall be delivered by Purchaser or Purchaser's transfer agent to the Escrow Agent in the form of duly authorized stock certificates for such shares issued in the respective names of the Shareholders; and (ii) each of the Shareholders shall deliver to the Escrow Agent three (3) stock powers in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto covering such Initial Indemnification Shares, each duly endorsed and bearing a medallion signature guarantee. Each Shareholder agrees to execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent such additional stock powers relating to the Indemnification Shares as may be necessary, in the Escrow Agent's opinion, to carry out its responsibilities under this

E-2




Agreement. In the event Purchaser issues any Additional Indemnification Shares (as defined below), Purchaser shall instruct its transfer agent to deliver such Additional Indemnification Shares to the Escrow Agent, and each Shareholder shall deliver stock powers for such Shareholder's Additional Indemnification Shares to the Escrow Agent, in the same manner as the Initial Indemnification Shares and stock powers therefor were delivered to the Escrow Agent hereunder. Unless and until stock certificates representing Additional Indemnification Shares are received by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may assume that none have been issued.

(b)    DIVIDENDS, VOTING AND RIGHTS OF OWNERSHIP. Except for dividends paid in shares of Purchaser stock that are declared and paid with respect to the Indemnification Shares or shares of Purchaser Common Stock issued with respect to Indemnification Shares and resulting from a stock split or subdivision ("ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION SHARES"), and except for cash dividends declared or set aside by Purchaser, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2005, in respect of all of the shares of Purchaser Common Stock that Investcorp may be deemed to beneficially own during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2005, which Investcorp has waived and permanently forfeited under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, any cash dividends, dividends payable in securities or other distributions of any kind made or paid in respect of the Indemnification Shares shall be distributed currently by Purchaser to each Shareholder. Each Shareholder shall have the right to vote the Indemnification Shares deposited in the Escrow Account for the account of such Shareholder so long as such Indemnification Shares are held in escrow, and Purchaser shall take all reasonable steps necessary to allow the exercise of such rights. So long as the Indemnification Shares remain in the Escrow Agent's possession pursuant to this Agreement and have not been canceled as provided herein or repurchased by Purchaser, the Shareholders shall retain and shall be able to exercise voting rights with respect to such Indemnification Shares and all other incidents of ownership of said Indemnification Shares that are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Purchaser and the Shareholders will arrange for the payment of dividends, subject to the limitations set forth herein and in the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the delivery of proxies and other notices among themselves, and the Escrow Agent need not be involved.

(c)    DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. On the date upon which the Escrow Period expires (the "FINAL RELEASE DATE"), upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of the written notice referred to in Section 2(d), the Escrow Agent shall release from escrow to each Shareholder such Shareholder's Indemnification Shares (as defined below) other than any of such Shareholder's Indemnification Shares that have previously been delivered to a Purchaser Indemnitee or that are owed to Purchaser Indemnitee and are to be canceled and forfeited in accordance with Section 4 in satisfaction of Claims by a Purchaser Indemnitee or that are otherwise subject to a pending Claim by a Purchaser Indemnitee (whether a Contested Claim or an Uncontested Claim as such terms are defined in Section 4). As used in this Agreement, a "SHAREHOLDER'S INDEMNIFICATION SHARES" refers to and means the Initial Indemnification Shares allocable to such Shareholder and the Additional Indemnification Shares allocable to such Shareholder, if any.

(d)    RELEASE OF INDEMNIFICATION SHARES. The Indemnification Shares shall be held by the Escrow Agent until such Indemnification Shares are required to be released pursuant to either; (i) Section 2(c) of this Agreement; or (ii) when required under applicable provisions of Section 4 of this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Shareholders or to Purchaser (who is authorized to accept delivery of Indemnification Shares on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnitee), as applicable hereunder, the requisite number of Indemnification Shares to be released on such applicable date as is called for by this Agreement. Such delivery of Indemnification Shares shall be in the form of stock certificate(s) registered in the name of such Shareholders or Purchaser, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall coordinate with Purchaser's transfer agent who shall cause such stock certificates to be registered in the appropriate names as determined by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement. Purchaser shall give the Escrow Agent prompt written notice of the name and address of any new transfer agent for Purchaser Common Stock. Purchaser and the Shareholders shall deliver a prompt written notice to the Escrow Agent identifying the number of Indemnification Shares to be released to each of the Shareholders

E-3




and/or Purchaser, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement. Unless the Escrow Agent is instructed otherwise by Purchaser and the Shareholders, Indemnification Shares released to the Shareholders shall be released to them in proportion to their respective percentage interests in the Indemnification Shares as set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The Escrow Agent shall use good faith efforts (with Purchaser's assistance) to have such stock certificates in its possession by delivery from Purchaser's transfer agent no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the day on which the Escrow Agent is to deliver such certificates to the Shareholders. Cash shall be paid in lieu of any fraction of an Indemnification Share held by any Shareholder (computed for each Shareholder by aggregating all Indemnification Shares held by such Shareholder) in an amount equal to the applicable fraction of an Indemnification Share multiplied by the closing price of Purchaser Common Stock on the AMEX on the trading day immediately preceding the date such Indemnification Shares are to be released to the Shareholders, as adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar event affecting Purchaser Common Stock (each a "CAPITAL CHANGE"), whether occurring at or after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall distribute, or Purchaser shall provide to the Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall distribute, cash in lieu of fractional Indemnification Shares; provided, neither Purchaser nor Escrow Agent shall be obligated to disburse such cash amount to any Significant Shareholder until such Significant Shareholder delivers an IRS Form W-9 (or Form W-8 in the case of a foreign person) for tax reporting purposes, duly completed and executed by such Shareholder. Purchaser shall be deemed to have purchased the fractional shares for which it has provided cash-in-lieu payments.

(e)    NO ENCUMBRANCE. No Indemnification Shares or any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, encumbered, sold, assigned or transferred (including any transfer by operation of law), by a Shareholder or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other liability of such Shareholder, prior to the delivery to such Shareholder of such Indemnification Shares by the Escrow Agent in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, from and after the date hereof through and including the Final Release Date, each of the parties hereto hereby grants to the Escrow Agent a lien upon, and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in and to all of the Indemnification Shares as security for the payment and performance of its obligations owing to the Escrow Agent hereunder, including, without limitation, its obligations of payment, indemnity and reimbursement provided for hereunder, which lien and security interest may be enforced by the Escrow Agent without notice by charging and setting-off and paying from, the Indemnification Shares any and all amounts then owing to it pursuant to this Agreement or by appropriate foreclosure proceedings. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for determining or enforcing compliance with this Section 2(e), except that the Escrow Agent shall retain possession of the stock certificates evidencing the Indemnification Shares as required by this Agreement.

(f)    POWER TO TRANSFER INDEMNIFICATION SHARES. The Escrow Agent is hereby granted the power to effect any transfer of Indemnification Shares contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser shall cooperate with the Escrow Agent in causing Purchaser's transfer agent to promptly issue stock certificates to effect such transfers.

(g)    LEGEND. In addition to appropriate restrictive legends, stock certificates representing Indemnification Shares will (until they are released to the Shareholders or Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement) bear the following legend indicating that they are subject to this Agreement:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN ESCROW AGREEMENT AMONG THE ISSUER, THE HOLDER THEREOF, AND AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY, AS ESCROW AGENT. A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER."

(h)    UPDATING. Purchaser and the Shareholders shall promptly deliver to the Escrow Agent a revised Exhibit A to update the information contained therein following the occurrence of any of the following events; (i) a Capital Change, (ii) any issuance of Additional Indemnification Shares; or

E-4




(iii) any change in the information set forth in Exhibit A regarding the Shareholders. Unless and until the Escrow Agent receives such revised Exhibit A, the Escrow Agent may assume without inquiry that the last Exhibit A it received remains in effect and that such exhibit has not been, and is not required to be, modified.

3.    CONTENTS OF NOTICE OF CLAIM. Each Notice of Claim given pursuant to Section 1(c) of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall contain the information set forth in Section 7.04(a) of the Stock Purchase Agreement.

4.    RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS AND TRANSFERS OF INDEMNIFICATION SHARES. Any Notice of Claim received by the Shareholders and the Escrow Agent pursuant to Sections 1(c) and 3 of this Agreement shall be resolved as follows:

(a)    UNCONTESTED CLAIMS. If, within ten (10) Business Days after a Notice of Claim containing a statement of claimed Losses has been received by, or is deemed to have been delivered by Purchaser or any other Purchaser Indemnitee to, the Shareholders and the Escrow Agent pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, the Shareholders have not contested such Notice of Claim in a written notice received by Escrow Agent as provided in Section 4(b) of this Agreement (an "UNCONTESTED CLAIM") and the Escrow Agent has not received written confirmation from Purchaser that the Shareholders have paid Purchaser in full the amount demanded in such Notice of Claim, then the Escrow Agent shall: (i) immediately release from escrow and transfer to Purchaser for cancellation and forfeiture that number of Indemnification Shares having a value (as determined in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Agreement) equal to the amount of Losses specified in such Notice of Claim, which transferred and forfeited Indemnification Shares shall be taken from and forfeited by the Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(e) of this Agreement; and (ii) notify the Shareholders in writing of such transfer and forfeiture of Indemnification Shares as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(b)    CONTESTED CLAIMS. In the event that the Shareholders deliver to Purchaser and the Escrow Agent a written notice contesting all, or a portion of, a Notice of Claim (a "CONTESTED CLAIM") and such written notice has been received by, or is deemed, under the provisions of Section 6 of this Agreement, to have been delivered to, Purchaser and the Escrow Agent within the ten (10) Business Day period described in Section 4(a) of this Agreement, then: (i) such Contested Claim shall be resolved prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period, to the extent such timing is reasonably practicable, by either (A) a written settlement agreement executed by Purchaser and the Shareholders or (B) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement, by final nonappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction directing delivery of the Indemnification Shares, in which event the Escrow Agent shall disburse the Indemnification Shares in accordance with such agreement or order. The Escrow Agent shall act on any such order or agreement without further question. Any portion of the Notice of Claim that is not contested by the Shareholders in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(b) shall be resolved as an Uncontested Claim in accordance with Section 4(a) of this Agreement. Upon its receipt of a copy of such order or agreement, the Escrow Agent shall first permit the Shareholders, at the Shareholders' option, the opportunity to pay to Purchaser the amount of Losses (if any) that are owed to Purchaser in full in cash on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Escrow Agent's receipt of a copy of such agreement or order. Immediately following Purchaser's receipt of payment of Losses from the Shareholders, Purchaser shall notify the Escrow Agent of such payment. If the Escrow Agent does not receive written confirmation from Purchaser that such owed Losses have been paid in full in cash to Purchaser prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Escrow Agent's receipt of a copy of such agreement or order, then the Escrow Agent will (i) immediately release from escrow and transfer to Purchaser for cancellation that number of Indemnification Shares having a value (determined in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Agreement) equal to the amount of Losses (if any) owed to Purchaser, which transferred and forfeited Indemnification Shares shall be taken from and forfeited by each of the Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(e) of this Agreement, and (ii) notify the Shareholders in writing of such transfer and forfeiture of Indemnification Shares as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(c)    DETERMINATION OF NUMBER OF INDEMNIFICATION SHARES FORFEITED. Any amount of Losses owed to Purchaser or any Purchaser Indemnitee hereunder, determined

E-5




pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4 and not paid in cash by the Shareholders in accordance with the above provisions of this Section 4, shall be immediately payable to Purchaser out of the Indemnification Shares then held by the Escrow Agent, and the forfeited Indemnification Shares shall be taken from and forfeited by the Shareholders in the manner set forth in Section 1(e) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, Indemnification Shares shall be deemed to have a per share value equal to the Average Stock Price (such price per share to be adjusted to reflect any Capital Change, whether occurring at or after the Closing Date). Thus, the number of Indemnification Shares to be released from escrow, forfeited by the Shareholders and transferred to Purchaser in satisfaction of a Claim for Losses (whether an Uncontested Claim or a Contested Claim) not paid in cash as provided above shall be the amount of such Losses divided by the Average Stock Price applicable to such Claim (such price per share to be adjusted to reflect any Capital Change, whether occurring at or after the Closing Date).

(d)    MULTIPLE CLAIMS PERMITTED. The assertion of any single Claim for indemnification pursuant to Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the assertion of a right to satisfaction (or the actual satisfaction) of any single Claim pursuant to this Agreement shall not bar Purchaser from asserting any other Claims for indemnification pursuant to Article VII of the Stock Purchase Agreement or from asserting or obtaining satisfaction of any other Claims pursuant to this Agreement.

5.    LIMITATION OF ESCROW AGENT'S LIABILITY.

(a)    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. The Escrow Agent shall incur no liability with respect to any action taken or suffered by it in reliance upon any notice, direction, instruction, consent, statement or other document believed by it to be genuine and duly authorized, nor for any other action or inaction, except its own willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of any document delivered to it. The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement. In all questions arising under this Agreement, the Escrow Agent may rely on the advice or opinion of counsel, and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Escrow Agent based on such advice, the Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder involving any expense unless the payment of such expense is made or provided for in a manner satisfactory to it. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the implied duty of good faith and fair dealing.

(b)    RESOLUTION OF CONFLICTING DEMANDS. In the event conflicting demands are made or conflicting notices are served upon the Escrow Agent with respect to the Escrow Account, the Escrow Agent shall have the absolute right, at the Escrow Agent's election, to do any or all of the following: (i) resign so a successor can be appointed pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement; (ii) file a suit in interpleader and obtain an order from a court of competent jurisdiction requiring the parties to interplead and litigate in such court their several claims and rights among themselves; or (iii) give written notice to the other parties that it has received conflicting instructions from Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Shareholders, on the other hand, and is refraining from taking action until it receives instructions consented to in writing by each of Purchaser and the Shareholders. In the event an interpleader suit as described in clause (ii) above is brought, the Escrow Agent shall thereby be fully released and discharged from all further obligations imposed upon it under this Agreement with respect to the matters that are the subject of such interpleader suit, and Purchaser shall pay the Escrow Agent all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees expended or incurred by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the exercise of Escrow Agent's rights under this Section 5(b) (such costs, fees and expenses shall be treated as extraordinary fees and expenses for the purposes of Section 8 of this Agreement). Purchaser shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Shareholders of any extraordinary fees and expenses of Escrow Agent in the event Purchaser prevails in such dispute pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement.

(c)    INDEMNIFICATION. Each party to this Agreement other than the Escrow Agent (each an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY" and together the "INDEMNIFYING PARTIES"), hereby jointly

E-6




and severally covenants and agrees to reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent's officers, directors, employees, counsel and agents (severally and collectively, "ESCROW AGENT"), from and against any loss, damage, liability or loss suffered, incurred by, or asserted against Escrow Agent (including amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding, or claim brought or threatened to be brought and including reasonable expenses of legal counsel) arising out of, in connection with or based upon, any act or omission by Escrow Agent (not involving gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud on Escrow Agent's part) relating in any way to this Agreement or the Escrow Agent's services hereunder. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Escrow Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. Any Indemnifying Party who reimburses or indemnifies the Escrow Agent pursuant to this Section 5(c) shall have a right to seek contribution from any and all other Indemnifying Parties according to their relative fault.

(d)    DEFENSE. Each Indemnifying Party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any claim or action that may be asserted against Escrow Agent, and if the Indemnifying Parties so elect, the Indemnifying Parties may assume the defense of such claim action; provided, however, that if there exists a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the sole discretion of the Escrow Agent, for the same counsel to represent both Escrow Agent and the Indemnifying Parties, Escrow Agent's retention of separate counsel shall be reimbursable as hereinabove provided. Escrow Agent's right to indemnification hereunder shall survive Escrow Agent's resignation or removal as Escrow Agent and shall survive the termination of this Agreement by lapse of time or otherwise.

(e)    NOTICE TO INDEMNIFYING PARTIES. The Escrow Agent shall notify each Indemnifying Party by letter, or by telephone or telecopy confirmed by letter, of any receipt by Escrow Agent of a written assertion of a claim against Escrow Agent, or any action commenced against Escrow Agent, for which indemnification is required under Section 5(c) of this Agreement, within ten (10) Business Days after Escrow Agent's receipt of written notice of such claim. The Indemnifying Parties will be relieved of their indemnification obligations under this Section 5 if Escrow Agent fails to timely give such notice and such failure adversely affects the Indemnifying Parties' ability to defend such claim. However, Escrow Agent's failure to so notify each Indemnifying Party shall not operate in any manner whatsoever to relieve an Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have otherwise than on account of this Section 5.

(f)    USE OF AGENTS. The Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers or responsibilities hereunder and exercise any rights hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys and shall be entitled to consult with its legal counsel, including in-house legal counsel, as to any questions or matters arising hereunder and the reasonable, good faith written opinion of such legal counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to Escrow Agent in respect of any act or omission by Escrow Agent undertaken in good faith and in accordance with the opinion of such legal counsel. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to impose upon Escrow Agent any duty to qualify to do business or to act as a fiduciary or otherwise in any jurisdiction other than the State of New York, U.S.A.

6.    NOTICES. All notices, requests, permissions, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) five business days following sending by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, (b) when sent, if sent by facsimile; provided that the facsimile transmission is promptly confirmed by telephone, (c) when delivered, if delivered personally to the intended recipient and (d) one business day following sending by overnight delivery via a national or international courier service and, in each case, addressed to a party at the following address for such party:

or to such other address(es) as shall be furnished in writing by any such party to each of the other parties hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, notices and the

E-8




like addressed to the Escrow Agent shall be effective only upon receipt. The Escrow Agent may assume without inquiry (unless the Escrow Agent has written notice to the contrary) that notices received by it which are also required to be delivered to another party have, in fact, been delivered to such other party.

7.    GENERAL.

(a)    GOVERNING LAW; ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without regard to conflicts of law principles and shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Section 9 hereof, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in (a) any Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and (b) any United States Federal Court sitting in New York County, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party irrevocably agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding against them arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto (whether for breach of contract, tortuous conduct or otherwise) shall be brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the state courts of New York located in New York County and hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the aforesaid courts IN PERSONAM, with respect to any such action, suit or proceeding. Each of the parties agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to such party's respective address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in New York with respect to any matters for which it has submitted to jurisdiction pursuant to this Section 7(a). Each party hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto. Each party (a) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 7(a).

(b)    COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(c)    ENTIRE AGREEMENT. As between Company and the Shareholders, this Agreement, together with the Stock Purchase Agreement, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. As between the Escrow Agent and the other parties hereto, all such parties agree that, as set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement, the Escrow Agent's duties are defined only in this Agreement, any contrary provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement notwithstanding.

(d)    WAIVERS. No waiver by any party hereto of any condition or of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing. No waiver by any party of any such condition or breach, in any one instance, shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach or a waiver of any other condition or breach of any other provision contained herein.

(e)    TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS. If applicable, each party hereto, other than the Escrow Agent, shall provide the Escrow Agent with its Tax Identification Number (TIN) as assigned by the Internal Revenue Service prior to the execution of this Agreement.

E-9




(f)    AGENTS. Unless expressly provided otherwise herein, any actions to be taken by Purchaser hereunder may also be taken by Purchaser's attorneys or agents.

8.    COMPENSATION AND EXPENSES OF ESCROW AGENT. All fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent, which shall include a yearly fee of US$5,000, incurred in the ordinary course of performing its responsibilities hereunder shall be paid by Purchaser at the Closing upon receipt of a written invoice by Escrow Agent. Any extraordinary fees and expenses, including without limitation any fees or expenses (including the fees or expenses of outside counsel to the Escrow Agent) incurred by the Escrow Agent in connection with a dispute over the distribution of Indemnification Shares or the validity of a Notice of Claim, shall be paid by Purchaser upon receipt of a written invoice by Escrow Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shareholders shall be liable for any extraordinary fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent arising in connection with a dispute hereunder, in the event that Purchaser prevails in such dispute. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to solicit any payments which may be due it hereunder.

9.    SUCCESSOR ESCROW AGENT. In the event the Escrow Agent becomes unavailable or unwilling to continue in its capacity herewith, the Escrow Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties or obligations hereunder by giving notice of its resignation to the parties to this Agreement, specifying a date not less than thirty (30) days following such notice date of when such resignation shall take effect. Purchaser shall designate a successor Escrow Agent, which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Shareholders, prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period by giving written notice to the Escrow Agent and the Shareholders. If no successor escrow agent is named by Purchaser, the Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall promptly transfer the Indemnification Shares to such designated successor.

10.    LIMITATION OF RESPONSIBILITY. The Escrow Agent's duties are limited to those set forth in this Agreement, and Escrow Agent, acting as such under this Agreement, is not charged with knowledge of or any duties or responsibilities under any other document or agreement, including without limitation the Stock Purchase Agreement. Escrow Agent may execute any of its powers or responsibilities hereunder and exercise any rights hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys. Nothing in this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to impose upon the Escrow Agent any duty to qualify to do business or to act as a fiduciary or otherwise in any jurisdiction other than the State of New York, U.S.A. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for and shall not be under a duty to examine into or pass upon the validity, binding effect, execution or sufficiency of this Escrow Agreement or of any agreement amendatory or supplemental hereto. In no event shall the Escrow Agent have any duty or obligation to determine or enforce compliance with the requirements of any agreement or instrument other than this Agreement (including without limitation the Stock Purchase Agreement).

11.    FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Purchaser nor the Shareholders nor Escrow Agent shall be responsible for any delays or failures in performance resulting from acts beyond its control. Such acts shall include but not be limited to acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, governmental regulations superimposed after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power failures, earthquakes or other disasters.

12.    REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications which may hereafter be executed, and (b) certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished, may be reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, optical disk, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties hereto agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.

13.    AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended by the written agreement of Purchaser, the Escrow Agent and the Shareholders, provided that, if the Escrow Agent does not agree to an amendment agreed upon by Purchaser and the Shareholders, the Escrow Agent shall resign and Purchaser shall

E-10




appoint a successor Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 9 above. No amendment of the Stock Purchase Agreement shall increase Escrow Agent's responsibilities or liability hereunder without Escrow Agent's written agreement.

14.    SEVERABILITY. The invalidity of any portion hereof shall not affect the validity, force or effect of the remaining portions hereof. If it is ever held that any restriction hereunder is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction to its fullest extent, each party agrees that a court of competent jurisdiction may enforce such restriction to the maximum extent permitted by law, and each party hereby consents and agrees that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly in any proceeding brought to enforce such restriction. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions and other equitable remedies to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in the court set forth in Section 7(a) hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with respect to such remedy are hereby waived by each of the parties hereto. Each party further agrees that, in the event of any action for an injunction or other equitable remedy in respect of such breach or enforcement of specific performance, it will not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

Annex F

WIRELESS TELECOM GROUP, INC. (the "Company")

AMEX AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

Purpose

The purpose of the Audit Committee (the "Committee") shall be as follows:

1.  To oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and audits of the financial statements of the Company.
2.  To provide assistance to the Board of Directors with respect to its oversight of the following:
(a)  The integrity of the Company's financial statements.
(b)  The Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.
(c)  The independent auditor's qualifications and independence.
(d)  The performance of the Company's internal audit function, if any, and independent auditor.
3.  To prepare the report that SEC rules require be included in the Company's annual proxy statement.

Composition

The Committee shall consist of three or more members of the Board of Directors, each of whom is determined by the Board of Directors to be "independent" under the rules of the American Stock Exchange and Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 adopted pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

One director who is not independent as defined in the rules and regulations of the American Stock Exchange and who satisfies the requirements of Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may serve as a member of the Committee, in the following circumstances:

•  the director, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the Committee, the Board of Directors, or another Board committee, does not accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than the receipt of fixed amounts of compensation under a retirement plan (including deferred compensation) for prior service with the Company so long as such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service;
•  the director is not an affiliated person of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
•  the director is not a current officer or employee of the Company or an immediate family member of a current officer or employee;
•  the Board determines, under exceptional and limited circumstances, that membership by the individual on the Committee is required by the best interests of the Company and its shareholders;
•  the Board of Directors discloses, in the Company's next annual meeting proxy statement (or its next annual report on Form 10-K or its equivalent if the Company does not file an annual proxy statement) subsequent to such determination, the nature of the relationship and the reason for that determination;
•  no such person may serve as the Chairman of the Committee; and
•  no such person may serve on the Committee for more than two years.

F-1




No member of the Committee shall receive directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fees from the Company other than (1) director's fees for service as a director of the Company, including reasonable compensation for serving on Board committees and regular benefits that other directors receive; and (2) a pension or similar compensation for past performance, provided that such compensation is not conditioned on continued or future service to the Company. In addition, no member of the Committee may be an affiliate of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company whether by being an officer or owning more than 10 percent of the Company's voting securities.

Qualifications

All members of the Committee shall be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements (including a company's balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement) and at least one member must either have past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or any other comparable experience or background, which results in the individual's financial sophistication, including being or having been a chief executive officer, chief financial officer, or other senior officer with financial oversight responsibilities or be an "audit committee financial expert" as defined by the SEC. Committee members may enhance their familiarity with finance and accounting by participating in educational programs conducted by the Company or by an outside organization.

Appointment and Removal

The members of the Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors. A member shall serve until such member's successor is duly elected and qualified or until such member's earlier resignation or removal. The members of the Committee may be removed, with or without cause, by a majority vote of the Board of Directors.

Chairman

Unless a Chairman is elected by the full Board of Directors, the members of the Committee shall designate a Chairman by the majority vote of the full Committee membership. The Chairman will chair all regular sessions of the Committee and set the agendas for Committee meetings.

Delegation to Subcommittees

In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Committee shall be entitled to delegate any or all of its responsibilities to a subcommittee of the Committee.

Meetings

The Committee shall meet as frequently as circumstances dictate, but at least on a quarterly basis. The Chairman of the Committee or a majority of the members of the Committee may call meetings of the Committee. Any one or more of the members of the Committee may participate in a meeting of the Committee by means of conference call or similar communication device by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other.

All non-management directors who are not members of the Committee may attend meetings of the Committee, but may not vote. In addition, the Committee may invite to its meetings any director, member of management of the Company, and such other persons as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities. The Committee may also exclude from its meetings any persons it deems appropriate.

As part of its goal to foster open communication, the Committee shall periodically meet separately with each of management, the director of the internal auditing department, if any, and the independent auditor to discuss any matters that the Committee or any of these groups believe would be appropriate to discuss privately. In addition, the Committee should meet with the independent auditor and management periodically to review the Company's financial statements in a manner consistent with that outlined in this Charter.

F-2




Duties and Responsibilities

The Committee shall carry out the duties and responsibilities set forth below. These functions should serve as a guide with the understanding that the Committee may determine to carry out additional functions and adopt additional policies and procedures as may be appropriate in light of changing business, legislative, regulatory, legal, or other conditions. The Committee shall also carry out any other duties and responsibilities delegated to it by the Board of Directors from time to time related to the purposes of the Committee outlined in this Charter. The Committee may perform any functions it deems appropriate under applicable law, rules, or regulations, the Company's by-laws, and the resolutions or other directives of the Board, including review of any certification required to be reviewed in accordance with applicable law or regulations of the SEC.

In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is empowered to study or investigate any matter of interest or concern that the Committee deems appropriate. In this regard and as it otherwise deems appropriate, the Committee shall have the authority, without seeking Board approval, to engage and obtain advice and assistance from outside legal and other advisors as it deems necessary to carry out its duties. The Committee also shall have the authority to receive appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, in its capacity as a committee of the Board of Directors, from the Company for the payment of compensation to any accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review, or attest services for the Company; to compensate any outside legal or other advisors engaged by the Committee; and to pay the ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties.

The Committee shall be given full access to the Company's internal audit group, if any, Board of Directors, corporate executives, and independent auditor as necessary to carry out these responsibilities. While acting within the scope of its stated purpose, the Committee shall have all the authority of the Board of Directors, except as otherwise limited by applicable law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee is not responsible for certifying the Company's financial statements or guaranteeing the independent auditor's report. The fundamental responsibility for the Company's financial statements and disclosures rests with management and the independent auditor. It also is the job of the Chief Executive Officer and senior management, rather than that of the Committee, to assess and manage the Company's exposure to risk.

Documents/Reports Review

1.  Discuss with management and the independent auditor, prior to public dissemination, the Company's annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements, including the Company's disclosures under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and discuss with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61.
2.  Discuss with management and the independent auditor, prior to the Company's filing of any quarterly or annual report, (a) whether any significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting exist that could adversely affect the Company's ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data; (b) the existence of any material weaknesses in the Company's internal control over financial reporting; and (c) the existence of any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Independent Auditors

5.  Appoint, retain, compensate, evaluate, and terminate any accounting firm engaged by the Company for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review, or attest services for the Company and, in its sole authority, approve all audit engagement fees and terms as well as all non-audit engagements with the accounting firm.
6.  Oversee the work of any accounting firm engaged by the Company for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review, or attest services for the Company, including the resolution of any disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting.
7.  Pre-approve, or adopt procedures to pre-approve, all audit, audit related, tax, and other services permitted by law or applicable SEC regulations (including fee and cost ranges) to be performed by the independent auditor. Any pre-approved services that will involve fees or costs exceeding pre-approved levels will also require specific pre-approval by the Committee. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee in pre-approving a service, the pre-approval will be effective for the 12-month period following pre-approval. The Committee will not approve any non-audit services prohibited by applicable SEC regulations or any services in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported by the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.
8.  To the extent it deems it appropriate, delegate pre-approval authority to the Chairman of the Committee or any one or more other members of the Committee provided that any member of the Committee who has exercised such delegation must report any such pre-approval decisions to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will not delegate the pre-approval of services to be performed by the independent auditor to management.
9.  Require that the independent auditor, in conjunction with the Chief Financial Officer, be responsible for seeking pre-approval for providing services to the Company and that any request for pre-approval must inform the Committee about each service to be provided and must provide detail as to the particular service to be provided.
10.  Inform each accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or to perform audit, review, or attest services for the Company that such firm shall report directly to the Committee.
11.  Review, at least annually, the qualifications, performance, and independence of the independent auditor. In conducting its review and evaluation, the Committee should do the following:
(a)  At least annually obtain and review a report by the Company's independent auditor describing (i) the auditing firm's internal quality-control procedures; (ii) any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality-control review, or peer review, of the auditing firm, or by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities, within the preceding five years, respecting one or more independent audits carried out by the auditing firm, and any steps taken to deal with any such issues; and (iii) all relationships between the independent auditor and the Company.
(b)  Ensure the receipt from the independent auditor of a formal written statement delineating all relationships between the auditor and the Company, consistent with Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1.
(c)  Actively engage in a dialogue with the independent auditor with respect to any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the auditor.
(d)  Take, or recommend that the full Board of Directors take, appropriate action to oversee the independence of the independent auditor.
(e)  Ensure the rotation of the lead audit (or coordinating) partner at least every five years, and consider whether there should be regular rotation of the audit firm itself.

F-4




(f)  Confirm with the independent auditor that the lead (or coordinating) audit partner, the concurring (or reviewing) partner, and each other active audit engagement team partner satisfies the rotation requirements of Rule 2-01(c)(6) of Regulation S-X.
(g)  Take into account the opinions of management and the Company's internal auditor (or other personnel responsible for the internal audit function), if any.

Financial Reporting Process

12.  In consultation with the independent auditor, management, and the internal auditor, if any, review the integrity of the Company's financial reporting processes, both internal and external. In that connection, the Committee should obtain and discuss with management and the independent auditor reports from management and the independent auditor regarding (a) all critical accounting policies and practices to be used by the Company and the related disclosure of those critical accounting policies under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations"; (b) analyses prepared by management and/or the independent auditor setting forth significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of the financial statements, including all alternative treatments of financial information within generally accepted accounting principles that have been discussed with the Company's management, the ramifications of the use of the alternative disclosures and treatments, and the treatment preferred by the independent auditor; (c) all alternative treatments of financial statements within generally accepted accounting principals that have been discussed with the Company's management, the ramifications of the use of alternative disclosures and treatments, and the treatment preferred by the independent auditor; (d) major issues regarding accounting principles and financial statement presentations, including any significant changes in the Company's selection or application of accounting principles; (e) major issues as to the adequacy of the Company's internal controls and any specific audit steps adopted in light of material control deficiencies; (f) issues with respect to the design and effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management's evaluation of those controls and procedures, and any issues relating to such controls and procedures during the most recent reporting period; (g) the effect of regulatory and accounting initiatives, as well as off-balance sheet structures on the financial statements of the Company; (h) any significant matters arising from any audit, including audit problems and difficulties, whether raised by management, the internal auditor, if any, and the independent auditor, relating to the Company's financial statements; and (i) any other material written communications between the independent auditor and the Company's management.
13.  Review periodically the effect of regulatory and accounting initiatives, as well as off-balance sheet structures, on the financial statements of the Company.
14.  Review with the independent auditor any audit problems or difficulties encountered and management's response thereto. In this regard, the Committee will regularly review with the independent auditor (a) any audit problems or other difficulties encountered by the auditor in the course of the audit work, including any restrictions on the scope of the independent auditor's activities or on access to requested information, and any significant disagreements with management and (b) management's responses to such matters. Without excluding other possibilities, the Committee may review with the independent auditor (i) any accounting adjustments that were noted or proposed by the auditor but were "passed" (as immaterial or otherwise), (ii) any communications between the audit team and the audit firm's national office respecting auditing or accounting issues presented by the engagement, and (iii) any "management" or "internal control" letter issued, or proposed to be issued, by the independent auditor to the Company.
15.  Obtain from the independent auditor assurance that the audit of the Company's financial statements was conducted in a manner consistent with Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which sets forth procedures to be followed in any audit of financial statements required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

F-5




16.  Discuss the scope of the annual audit and review the form of the opinion the independent auditor proposes to issue.
17.  Review and discuss with management and the independent auditor the responsibilities, budget, and staffing of the Company's internal audit function, if any.

Legal Compliance/General

18.  Review periodically, with the Company's counsel, any legal matter that could have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
19.  Discuss with management and the independent auditor the Company's guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Committee will discuss the Company's major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures.
20.  Set clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditor. At a minimum, these policies should provide that any accounting firm may not provide audit services to the Company if the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, Controller, or any person serving in an equivalent position for the Company was employed by the accounting firm and participated in any capacity in the audit of the Company within one year of the initiation of the current audit.
21.  Establish procedures for (i) the receipt, retention, and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters; and (ii) the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Company of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.
22.  Unless assigned to a comparable committee or group of independent directors, review and approve all related party transactions as specified in Item 404 of Regulation S-K.
23.  Review and reassess the adequacy of this Charter on an annual basis.

Reports

24.  Prepare all reports required to be included in the Company's proxy statement pursuant to and in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.
25.  Report regularly to the full Board of Directors. In this regard, the Committee should review with the full Board any issues that arise with respect to the quality or integrity of the Company's financial statements, the Company's compliance with legal or regulatory requirements, the performance and independence of the Company's independent auditor, and the performance of the internal audit function, if any.
26.  The Committee shall provide such recommendations as the Committee may deem appropriate. The report to the Board of Directors may take the form of an oral report by the Chairman or any other member of the Committee designated by the Committee to make such report.
27.  Maintain minutes or other records of meetings and activities of the Committee.

Limitation of Audit Committee's Role

With respect to the foregoing responsibilities and processes, the Committee recognizes that the Company's financial management, including the internal audit staff, if any, as well as the independent auditor have more time, knowledge, and detailed information regarding the Company than do Committee members. Consequently, in discharging its oversight responsibilities, the Committee will not provide or be deemed to provide any expertise or special assurance as to the Company's financial statements or any professional certification as to the independent auditors' work.

While the Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in this Charter, it is not the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Company's financial

statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and applicable rules and regulations. These are the responsibilities of management and the independent auditor. It also is not the duty of the Committee to conduct investigations or to assure compliance with laws and regulations and the Company's internal policies and procedures.
