ITEM 1--BUSINESS

THE COMPANY

     STM Wireless, Inc. (the "Company" or "STM"), is a developer, manufacturer
and provider of wireless-based satellite communications infrastructure and user
terminal products utilized in public and private telecommunications networks for
broadband and telephony applications. These networks support IP based data, fax,
voice and video communication and are used to either bypass or extend
terrestrial networks. The Company's product line is based on proprietary
hardware and software and primarily consists of two-way earth stations referred
to as VSATs (very small aperture terminals), associated infrastructure equipment
and software. The Company's proprietary equipment and software are utilized by
businesses, government agencies and telephone companies in Europe, the Americas,
Africa and Asia.

     The Company was incorporated in California in January 1982 as Services Via
Satellite and in December 1982 changed its name to Satellite Technology
Management, Inc. In January 1995, the Company registered in California to do
business as STM Wireless, Inc. In December 1995, the Company reorganized as a
Delaware corporation via a merger into a wholly-owned subsidiary with the name
STM Wireless, Inc.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

     The Company develops, manufactures and markets wireless based satellite
communications infrastructure products to customers for the creation of public
and private networks. The Company's products provide customers with the ability
to transmit many forms of information including IP based data, voice, fax and
video. The Company historically has sold its products primarily in the
international arena. The solutions currently provided by the Company are
principally satellite communications networks which can be deployed and
reconfigured faster and at a lower cost than terrestrial alternatives. The main
products that STM sells are small, two-way earth stations referred to as VSATs
(very small aperture terminals), associated infrastructure equipment and
software.

     The applications for the Company's product lines falls into three separate
classes:

     o    The first class of applications helps solve the problem of
          insufficient bandwidth to enable the Internet to fulfill its potential
          for a multitude of new services. By using satellite, Internet Service
          Providers (ISPs) can bypass the traditional landline infrastructure,
          which is often unable to economically meet quality of service
          expectations because of network congestion. STM's SpaceWeb Broadband
          provides the equipment for service providers to offer high bandwidth
          to their customers by satellite, both for downloading and for the
          return channel from the customer to the ISP. In addition to bypassing
          landline bandwidth restrictions, satellite provides an ideal
          technology for broadcast applications on the Internet. It offers a
          large reach by its very nature (one satellite can cover one-third of
          the earth). Furthermore, STM's solutions feature "IP tuning," which
          modifies the routing technology of the Internet for broadcast
          applications. Traditional routing technology over landline
          infrastructure is not as efficient in broadcast applications. It
          consequently ties up bandwidth in routing inefficiency, which keeps it
          from other uses and users. STM's technology is also attractive as a
          means to enable an ISP to more effectively deploy its access and
          bandwidth to its customers.

     o    The second class of applications enables cost-effective data and voice
          communications for corporations and large, geographically dispersed
          organizations. Powerful drivers for the growth of the Internet are
          electronic information sharing and business transactions. As this
          trend continues, it is likely to drive the demand for corporate
          communication tools such as video conferencing, telemedicine, and
          distance learning. STM's corporate solutions provide the networks that
          enable these tools.

     o    The third class of applications targets rural telephony services in
          developing countries. The demand for rural telephony products and
          services is considerable. However, the great majority of potential
          subscribers cannot afford the current service rates of their national
          providers. In other cases, the potential subscribers who can afford
          the service are separated by large distances and difficult terrain,
          which prohibit the cost-effective use of traditional landline and
          microwave infrastructure. STM's solutions are tailored to enable
          cost-effective service to a significant proportion of these potential
          subscribers. One of


                                       2
<PAGE>

          STM's newest products, SpaceLoop, provides connectivity between a
          remote location and the national phone network through satellite.
          It then distributes the access to the subscribers by Wireless
          Local Loop technology.

     The Company's product line is based on proprietary hardware and software
used in the remote terminals, hubs/gateways and network management systems. The
Company's satellite communications product line includes products that are
capable of concurrently transmitting and receiving data as well as several
channels of digitized voice, using the Company's software to perform call
routing and to allocate satellite capacity on call initiation. These product
features allow more efficient use of satellite transponders and are attractive
to international customers for whom combined voice and data communications costs
are a prime concern.

     The Company has established alliances with customers, distributors and
sales representatives in over 30 countries and has supplied networks to
customers or end users in many geographic areas, including Argentina, Brazil,
Canada, Chile, China, Ecuador, Guatemala, Holland, India, Italy, Jordan, Kenya,
Malaysia, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Spain, Sudan, Thailand,
the United States and Venezuela.

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND

     VSAT products provide customers with the ability to transmit several forms
of information including voice, fax, data and video by attaching standard
communications equipment such as telephones, fax machines or computers to the
VSAT which in turn relays information to and from satellites. The primary
advantage of VSAT networks is the substantial cost savings compared to
land-based telephone networks where the network users are geographically
widespread. Due to the nature of satellites, transmission costs are not affected
by the distance information travels, while in terrestrial networks, transmission
costs are directly related to the distance between the network users. VSAT
equipment can be rapidly installed, upgraded or moved. Thus, networks can be
expanded or changed with relatively little expense and disruption to users.
Bandwidth allocated to each user can be changed dynamically, and the network can
be reconfigured and additional features and changes downloaded to the user.
Furthermore, the network user or service provider has the ability to monitor
operations of the network, collect performance statistics and perform
diagnostics.

     Since the mid-1980s, the VSAT network market has grown with the North
American enterprise network market share dominating. In recent years, changes in
both the political and regulatory environments have contributed to the
international expansion of the VSAT network market. While the North American
market is primarily for data transmission applications, in most international
markets, applications for basic telephony services including voice, facsimile
and low speed data transmission are important. Recently, as a result of the
worldwide Internet explosion and the growing demand for high bandwidth
applications, VSATs have also emerged as a compelling solution for the provision
of high bandwidth Internet services.

BROADBAND SATELLITE MARKET

     In 1999, the Company introduced a family of products to address the growing
demand for high bandwidth applications and Internet access via satellite. As the
popularity of the Internet grows, so does the demand for rich, high bandwidth
content over the Internet. The broadband satellite solutions help solve the
problem of insufficient bandwidth to enable the Internet to fulfill its
potential for a multitude of new services. By using satellite, Internet Service
Providers (ISPs) can bypass the traditional landline infrastructure, which is
often unable to economically meet quality of service expectations because of
network congestion. In addition, in some areas, broadband satellite solutions
allow ISPs and other service providers to build up their networks and customer
base at a faster and cheaper pace than they could through traditional
terrestrial means.

     The Company's product line can serve a wide variety of different
applications in this market, such as fast Internet access, telemedicine,
distance learning, video conferencing, video and audio streaming (TV, news,
software, games), virtual private networks, global extension of corporate
networks, global ISP services, IP multicast, Push/Data broadcast and e-commerce.
The key features of the Company's current product lines include:

     o    Two-way high speed communication over satellite

     o    Availability in Ku- and C-band

     o    Immediate global reach without terrestrial restrictions


                                       3
<PAGE>

     o    Full DVB-S/MPEG-2 compliance

     o    Bandwidth on Demand and Quality of Service controlled

     o    High speed reception of up to 48 Mbps

     o    9.6 kbps to 384 kbps return path per VSAT

     o    Fast and easy ability to deploy

     o    Costs are insensitive to distance

     o    Provides trunking and last mile access in one network

     o    Satellite link enhancement through TCP/IP acceleration

ENTERPRISE NETWORKS

     Enterprise networks are private communications systems which provide a
solution for organizations with frequent communications needs between remote
locations allowing them to collect, process, respond to and disseminate
information in a timely, reliable and cost-efficient manner. VSATs have
historically been used in developed countries for transaction oriented
applications, including point-of-purchase transactions, credit card
verification, automatic teller machine transactions, and inventory management.

     In recent years, the price of VSATs has decreased, their functionality and
reliability have improved and the number of communication protocols that can be
supported has increased. The Company believes that these improvements allow VSAT
networks to compete effectively as full service communications systems in
international markets where the lack of reliable terrestrial networks
necessitates the use of alternative telecommunication infrastructure. In
addition to transaction oriented applications, international VSAT enterprise
networks are used for communications applications such as e-mail, intranets,
Internet access and basic voice service. The Company believes there will be a
significant growth in VSAT enterprise networks as a result of increased
electronic information sharing and business transactions on the Internet.

RURAL TELEPHONY MARKET

     As the world's economies continue to globalize, the need for countries to
provide their population with access to telecommunications service has become
significantly more important as a means of increasing competitiveness. In
response, many developing countries throughout the world have begun to make
significant capital expenditures on the deployment of new networks and the
expansion of their existing telephone infrastructure to increase telephony
penetration. While traditional terrestrial telecommunications networks are being
deployed and expanded in the urban areas of these developing countries to
increase telephony penetration, it is more difficult to provide networks to the
rural areas of these countries due to the dispersion of the population and
difficult terrain that often characterizes these locations. As a result, in a
large number of remote and rural areas in developing countries, there continues
to be limited or no telephone service.

     There are a number of alternatives to satellite technology that are being
used to meet increased demand for telecommunication services. Wireline and
cellular telephony networks can be used to effectively meet telecommunications
needs in rural areas with relatively higher population densities. However, the
Company believes that VSAT networks have a number of advantages over alternative
solutions for many rural and urban telephony applications in developing
countries where low population density and rough terrain are considerations. Due
to the nature of satellites, transmission costs are not affected by the distance
signals must travel. Therefore, generally, the greater the distance between the
sites to be served, the greater the benefit of a VSAT network. VSAT equipment
can be rapidly installed and connected to a network and can easily be upgraded,
expanded or relocated with relatively little expense and disruption. VSAT
networks are relatively simple to reconfigure, are relatively immune to
difficulties in topography and can be located almost anywhere.

     To complement its product offerings, the Company has developed a wireless
local loop (WLL) product, SpaceLoop, and is considering entering into strategic
relationships with other providers of WLL products, thereby ensuring that the
Company has an economical product offering in more densely populated regions.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

     STM seeks to leverage its technical strength in networking and telephony
technologies as well as its strong position and marketing expertise in
international markets to become the leading supplier of satellite-based
communications solutions. To achieve this objective, the Company is pursuing the
following initiatives:

     STRENGTHEN POSITION IN BROADBAND SATELLITE MARKET: The Company began
marketing and selling its broadband satellite products in 1999 as a result of an
alliance it created with Harmonic Data Systems. The Company is focused on
increasing its broadband product sales on an absolute basis as well as a
percentage of its total sales. In addition, the Company intends to enter into
more strategic relationships and alliances in order to strengthen its broadband
product portfolio and distribution channels for broadband products.

     EXPAND MARKET SHARE IN ENTERPRISE NETWORKS: The Company believes there will
be a significant growth in VSAT enterprise networks as a result of increased
electronic information sharing and business transactions on the Internet. The
Company's enterprise network strategy is to capitalize on its international
expertise to sell more products in the international market.

     SOLIDIFY POSITION IN RURAL TELEPHONY MARKET: Management believes that STM
offers a comprehensive rural telephony solution through a suite of products
specifically designed to service these needs. Management believes that the use
of VSATs for rural telephony has yet to fully mature and a substantial global
market opportunity exists for this technology to serve rural telephony needs.

     LEVERAGE EXISTING MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS: STM's sales and
distribution networks comprise 30 countries in five continents and the Company's
products are currently utilized by more than 70 customers with equipment
installed in approximately 90 countries. The Company seeks to increase the
breadth of products that can be sold through its distribution network by both
internal research and development ("R&D") and strategic alliances with other
manufacturers, as well as complementary acquisitions. STM has incurred
significant R&D expenditures in recent years relative to its revenues, as
management believes that the Company's significant dedication of resources to
R&D is necessary to compete in a rapidly changing market. STM's R&D efforts are
primarily focused on reducing the overall cost of its products to its customers,
as well as increasing their features and performance, thereby expanding the
addressable market size.

PRODUCTS

     The principal products sold by the Company are two-way small earth stations
referred to as VSATs (very small aperture terminals), associated infrastructure
equipment and software, transceivers, modems and other networking equipment, as
well as voice over IP gateway and software solutions. The Company's satellite
products communicate via geostationary satellites in order to provide customers
the ability to exchange several forms of information including voice, fax, data
and video within their networks. Geostationary satellites are placed in orbit
approximately 23,000 miles above the earth so that their orbit matches the speed
of the earth's rotation resulting in the satellite maintaining a fixed position
relevant to the earth's surface. VSAT networks can offer advantages over
traditional networks of terrestrial telephone lines including control over the
network itself, improved response times with cost reduction opportunities and
increased flexibility and reliability. For voice communications, VSAT networks
are particularly suited to providing communications between geographically
dispersed locations in that they are easier to install and provide wider
accessibility and availability than terrestrial and microwave transmission
alternatives.

     The Company's VSAT products fall into two categories. Both of these product
categories may be used by customers to build networks capable of communicating
voice, fax, data and video, but, because they use different architectures, the
use of each product is determined by the particular needs of the customer's
network. The principal difference between the two product categories lie in the
methodology used for communicating between any two remote VSATs on a network.
There is a "mesh" product that employs circuit switched transmission. In mesh
networks, any one VSAT communicates directly with any other VSAT on the network
via a single transmission to and from the satellite. Then, there is what is
often termed a "star" product that employs packetized transmission.

EXISTING PRODUCTS

    SATELLITE PRODUCTS:

     SPACEWEB ONLINE: Introduced in 1999, SpaceWeb Online was created for
demanding data and Internet access applications in the home-and-branch-office
setting. SpaceWeb Online maintains a constant, highly reliable connection.
Because it uses satellite for both transmission and reception, it is fully
independent of landline infrastructure. It features up to 48 Mbps of Time
Division Multiplex (TDM) bandwidth for downloading in a Digital Video Broadcast
(DVB) format, with up to 192 kbps of bandwidth for the Time Division Multiple
Access (TDMA) return channel.

     SPACEWEB ISP: Introduced in 1999, SpaceWeb ISP provides powerful features
to meet ISP and enterprise network requirements. In addition to 48Mbps of DVB
bandwidth for downloading, each return channel is a "Single Channel per Carrier"
(SCPC) satellite line between 9.6 and 384 kbps that is assigned on-demand with
the Company's DAMA technology. This enables the network to provide
high-bandwidth users with return channels that can vary with their needs,
providing great overall bandwidth flexibility and control. Furthermore, SpaceWeb
ISP seamlessly integrates Internet access and data with full-mesh connections
for voice, fax, and video conferencing into one network architecture.

     SPACEWEB DIAL-UP: Introduced in 1999, SpaceWeb Dial-up enables the small
office to share both LAN and voice services on an "as-needed" basis in one
wireless package. It uses the Company's SES technology to provide high-quality,
economical DAMA voice links with fax and data services up to 14.4 kbps. Remote
Internet and data files can be easily accessed with its 48Mbps of DVB bandwidth
for downloading.

     SPACEWEB PC: Introduced in 1999, SpaceWeb PC delivers full Internet access
and telephony features to the most remote single-user terminals in the network.
A single-user version of the SpaceWeb Dial-Up, the SpaceWeb PC connects directly
to a standard PC through a universal serial bus interface.

     SES: In 1998, the Company completed development of SES, which is a low cost
telephony product derived from and compatible with DAMA 10000. As an extension
of DAMA 10000, SES is targeted at the provision of telephony services to
unserved or underserved regions of the world. SES is designed to provide
reliable, affordable, on-demand telecommunications service in remote and rural
areas. SES is a small, lightweight and low cost terminal ideally suited for
areas where telecommunications service is unavailable, unreliable or simply too
expensive. Since it is satellite-based, a SES terminal is capable of being
installed quickly, virtually anywhere, to allow immediate access to the SES
network and the PSTN. SES provides telecommunications service with high quality
voice and industry standard interfaces.

     SPACEWEB: In 1998, the Company completed development of SpaceWeb, which is
an evolutionary development of the X.STAR family and is fully compatible with
X.STAR. SpaceWeb provides a low cost, star-connected solution for data, fax and
voice applications and is aimed at international Internet access. SpaceWeb is a
low cost terminal that communicates with a low cost central hub whose modular
architecture will be designed to provide attractive start up costs, without
restricting network growth potential. For reliable end to end communications,
SpaceWeb utilizes the Company's X.STAR communications protocol and supports all
of the same communications protocols as X.STAR.

     HUBS/GATEWAYS: The Company manufactures the digital and modem portion of
the hubs/gateways which are comprised of a series of special purpose processing
units utilized in multiplexing, network configuration and routing of information
to the appropriate network destinations. This is controlled by the Company's
proprietary networking and system software. Typically, the digital portion of
the hub/gateway has a number of voice and data ports that directly attach to the
user's equipment. Transmission between the hub/gateway and the remote VSAT is
via a satellite transponder. The hub/gateway also includes radio frequency
components and an antenna, which are purchased from suppliers and integrated
into the system by the Company. The hub/gateway interacts with a network
management system, which operates on a local or remote work station using
proprietary software supplied by the Company.

     NETWORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS: The Company provides a network management
system which shows network status in real time, and permits the operator to
monitor and control network operations, including the diagnosis of problems. The
interface with the operator is by a graphic display of the network status on a
color monitor. The network management system can also be used for redefining
network parameters, for adding and deleting remote network locations, for
changing protocols and for collecting and reporting operational information


                                       6
<PAGE>

and providing management reports. In addition, the system can be expanded
if the hub/gateway is shared among several customers, to permit each customer to
have such capabilities. The network management system can be installed remotely
from the hub/gateway location if required.

     SYSTEMS INTEGRATION PRODUCTS: The Company also integrates equipment from
other manufacturers into systems or earth stations manufactured by the Company.
These products include antennas, radio frequency equipment, satellite modems,
voice and data multiplexers, local area network routers and video communications
equipment. The Company expects to continue to sell such systems on an individual
project basis as part of its direct sales effort.

     DAMA 10000: The Company's DAMA 10000 product primarily supports public and
private networks that need to have full connectivity among all sites. The DAMA
10000 is a fully integrated product that offers the flexibility to create and
manage both large and small networks. With an expandable system architecture and
highly configurable terminal equipment, the DAMA 10000 is a cost efficient
solution for small to very large networks. The system supports full mesh,
point-to-point or point-to-multi-point communications circuits and any user can
connect to any other user on the network. DAMA 10000 uses a proprietary control
channel to set up and tear down calls between VSATs as these are requested by
users on the network. This results in satellite capacity only being consumed
when calls are requested, thereby optimizing satellite transponder costs for the
customer. In addition, DAMA 10000 provides support for the major international
telephony signaling systems including R2 and DTMF as well as various payphone
metering schemes, allowing it to be interconnected with the Public Switched
Telephony System ("PSTN") in many countries around the world. These features of
the product have resulted in it being ideally suited for rural telephony
applications where individual VSATs provide multiple telephone lines to
subscribers in remote locations. These VSATs are, in turn, all interconnected
via satellite with the PSTN in the country of deployment providing the remote
subscribers with worldwide calling capability.

     X.STAR: The Company's X.STAR product primarily supports private networks
with a need to connect remote user locations with a central site. A typical
application of an X.STAR network would be the processing of point of sale
transactions between retail outlets and a central database. However, the X.STAR
product supports all types of data including voice, fax and broadcast video and
more recently has been used by customers to interconnect LANs across their
enterprises. The network is controlled by a central hub that acts as a gateway
to the host facilities and as a switching and routing center for transmitting
information between VSATs. A powerful network management system ("NMS") is also
a part of the hub and multiple remote NMS stations may be deployed on the
network.

     In an X.STAR network, VSATs all receive a common broadcast signal from the
hub, filtering the data received to accept only the information addressed to
devices connected to the VSAT. In order to transmit information back to the hub
or to another VSAT via the hub, VSATs on the network share a common transmit
channel back to the hub. Access to this transmit channel is controlled by the
Company's unique dynamic capacity allocations algorithm which allocates a
transmission time and duration to each VSAT dynamically based on its traffic
requirements.

     X.STAR uses a packet-based transmission and switching protocol that makes
it suitable for the transmission of packetized data which is increasingly being
used in today's communications networks including the Internet. This protocol
establishes and maintains error-free channels from initiation points to
destination points on a network. In addition, the X.STAR product supports most
major communications protocols including SDLC, X.25, X.3, HDLC and TCP/IP,
resulting in seamless transport of information using these protocols across an
X.STAR network.

     SPACELOOP: The Company recently completed development of its SpaceLoop
product, which provides a wireless local loop ("WLL") solution for rural
telephony. In rural areas where there are a fairly large number (approximately
between 50 and 500) of potential subscribers within a five-kilometer radius,
both business and residential, it is not economical to deploy DAMA 10000 or SES
terminals for each subscriber due to their relatively high cost per line
deployed. Where the average usage per month per subscriber is likely to be 400
minutes or less, STM would deploy a WLL solution with a lower capital cost per
line installed, that allows such customers to become subscribers at a much lower
price point. STM's SpaceLoop technology would be used to provide WLL
connectivity within a community.

     PROJECT MANAGEMENT: The Company offers engineering, project management, and
contract services in support of products sold.

     CUSTOM DEVELOPMENT: From time to time, the Company receives orders from its
customers and distributors for product features, new products or software
protocols and functions that enhance the Company's product lines. While such
custom development orders do not contribute significantly to the Company's
revenues, they demonstrate the Company's ability to be responsive to market
requirements.

     TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES: The Company provides technical support services
to its installed base of customers either directly or through third-parties.
Services include technical support, installations, maintenance, training and
spares provisioning.

SALES AND MARKETING

     The Company sells its satellite communication products directly and through
international distributors and alliances which are supported by the Company's
sales and marketing personnel. The Company has focused its sales efforts on the
following:

     o    Expanding global coverage through increasing the number of highly
          trained, direct sales personnel with regional responsibilities.

     o    Identifying sales opportunities that exist with newly licensed service
          providers in international markets, particularly those focused on
          providing rural telephony services.

     o    Identifying capable, local distributors and replacing, if necessary,
          its current distributors and alliances.

     o    Supplying highly integrated, low cost solutions to customers through
          the Company's product offerings.

     Export sales, as a percentage of revenues, were approximately 93%, 90% and
95% in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

BACKLOG

     The Company's backlog represents future revenues that may be earned from
sales orders or sales contracts for products or services. As of December 31,
1999, the Company's backlog was approximately $7,800,000. At December 31, 1998,
the Company's backlog was approximately $7,500,000. Both the 1999 and 1998
backlog exclude any backlog associated with SkyOnline, Inc., formerly known as
Direc-To-Phone International, Inc. ("DTPI"), which was deconsolidated in June
1999. (See note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.) The Company
manufactures its products on the basis of customer orders and its forecast of
near-term demand from its customers. The Company conducts nearly all of its
business with foreign customers in United States currency and accordingly, is
generally not subject to foreign currency fluctuations. Customary terms of
business for product sales are a substantial deposit on order with the remainder
guaranteed by an irrevocable letter of credit or, when appropriate, open
account.

MANUFACTURING

     The Company's products are assembled by the Company using subsystems and
circuit boards supplied by subcontractors. The Company's products use a number
of application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips, monolithic microwave
integrated circuits (MMIC) and customized components or subassemblies produced
by a limited number of suppliers. In the event that such suppliers are unable to
fulfill the Company's requirements, the Company may experience an interruption
in production until an alternative source of supply is developed. The Company
maintains an inventory of certain long lead time components and subassemblies to
limit the potential for such an interruption. The Company believes that there
are a number of companies capable of providing replacements for the types of
unique chips, customized components and subassemblies used in its products.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     The Company's research and development efforts are devoted to the design
and implementation of satellite and wireless radio communications network
hardware and software. The Company's future growth depends on adaptation of its
existing satellite communications products to new applications, and the
introduction of new communications products that will gain market acceptance and
benefit from the Company's established international distribution channels.
Accordingly, the Company is actively applying its communications expertise to
design and develop new hardware and software products and enhance existing
products.

     STM's R&D efforts are primarily focused on reducing the overall cost of
ownership of its products to its customers, thereby expanding the addressable
market size. In addition, the Company may opportunistically acquire products,
technologies or companies consistent with its commercial objectives to serve the
evolving needs of the Company's customer base.

     In 1999, 1998, and 1997, the Company incurred expenses of $5,354,000,
$8,102,000 and $6,387,000, respectively, on research and development activities.
During this period, the Company continued the development of the DAMA 10000
VSAT, completed development of the SES and SpaceWeb products (including
broadband products) and continued development of the SpaceLoop product.

COMPETITION

     The Company has a number of competitors in the satellite communications
field, most of which have substantially greater financial, marketing, and
technological resources than the Company. The Company's competitors include
large companies such as Hughes Network Systems and Gilat Satellite Networks.
There can be no assurance that the Company will not experience increased
competition in the future from these or other competitors which may adversely
affect the Company's ability to continue to successfully market its products or
services. The Company believes that it has been able to compete with these
companies by offering flexible and cost effective products and utilizing the
resources of local distributors, forming strategic alliances with major
corporations, and by emphasizing product features and functions such as
concurrent support of multiple protocols, voice capability, built-in diagnostic
ports and downloadable software and configurations, which allow the products to
serve the diverse needs of international customers. These product features and
functions are based upon the Company's proprietary hardware and software. See
"Patents and Intellectual Property."

     However, most of the Company's competitors offer products which have one or
more of the features and functions similar to those offered by the Company. The
Company believes that the quality, performance and capabilities of its products,
its ability to customize certain network functions and the efficient utilization
of satellite capacity, coupled with the products generally offered by the
Company's major vendors, have contributed to the Company's ability to compete.
The Company's major competitors have the resources available to develop products
with features and functions, competitive with, or superior to, those offered by
the Company. There can be no assurance that such competitors will not develop
such features or functions, or that the Company will be able to maintain a lower
cost advantage for these products.

PATENTS AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

     The Company relies on a combination of trade secrets, copyrights,
trademarks, service marks and contractual rights to protect its technology and
software. The Company attempts to protect its trade secrets and other
proprietary information through agreements with its customers, suppliers,
employees and consultants. While the Company has filed certain patent
applications, the Company believes that the improvement of existing products,
reliance upon trade secrets, copyrights and unpatented proprietary know-how and
the development of new products are generally as important as patent protection
in establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage because, among other
reasons, patents often provide only narrow protection which may not provide a
competitive advantage in areas of rapid technological change. The use of trade
secrets and copyrights will not necessarily protect the Company from the use by
other persons of its technology or software, or technology or software that is
similar to that which is embodied in the Company's trade secrets or copyrights.
There can be no assurance that others will not be able to duplicate the
Company's technology and software in whole or in part. In addition, the laws of
certain countries in which the Company's products are or may be developed,
manufactured or sold may not protect the Company's products and intellectual
property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. The
inability of the Company to protect its intellectual property and proprietary
technology could have a material adverse effect on its


                                       9
<PAGE>

business, operating results and financial condition. With respect to the
Company's venture into new fields, the Company believes that patent protection
may be necessary. Accordingly, the Company has applied for some patents and
intends to pursue patent protection for additional products developed by the
Company. In addition, as the number of patents, copyrights and other
intellectual property rights in the Company's industry increases, and as the
coverage of these rights and the functionality of the products of new markets
further overlap, the Company believes that its products may increasingly become
the subject of infringement claims. The Company may in the future be notified
that it is infringing upon certain intellectual property rights of others.
Although the Company has not received any such notification to date, and there
are no pending or threatened intellectual property lawsuits against the Company,
there can be no assurance that such litigation or infringement claims will not
occur in the future. Any such litigation or claims could result in substantial
costs and diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

     The Communications Act of 1934, as amended, gives the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") jurisdiction over the communications products
and services provided by the Company in the United States. Part 25 of the FCC's
rules and regulations governs the operation and use of satellite transponders
and requires authorization for construction and operation of each transmitting
earth station, including VSATs installed on customers' premises.

     The Company's international sales are also subject to Department of
Commerce regulations for export of its products, which usually meet general
license requirements depending on country of destination.

EMPLOYEES

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company employed 101 people on a full-time
basis, including 59 employees in engineering/research and development, 13
employees in manufacturing, 11 employees in marketing and sales and 18 employees
in administration and accounting.

     The Company believes that its relations with all employees are
satisfactory. The employees and the Company are not parties to any collective
bargaining agreements.

RISK FACTORS

     FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. THIS DOCUMENT CONTAINS CERTAIN FORWARD LOOKING
STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 27A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, AND SECTION 21E OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED,
THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. IN ADDITION, THE COMPANY MAY FROM TIME TO
TIME MAKE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS, ORALLY OR IN WRITING. THE WORDS
"ESTIMATE", "PROJECT", "POTENTIAL", "INTENDED", "EXPECT", "BELIEVE" AND SIMILAR
EXPRESSIONS OR WORDS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. ACTUAL
RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE PROJECTED OR SUGGESTED IN ANY FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF A WIDE VARIETY OF FACTORS AND CONDITIONS,
AMONG OTHERS, LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING RISKS, LONG TERM CYCLES INVOLVED IN
COMPLETING MAJOR CONTRACTS, PARTICULARLY IN FOREIGN MARKETS, INCREASING
COMPETITIVE PRESSURES, GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES, THE
TIMING OF NEW PRODUCT INTRODUCTIONS, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RISKS INVOLVED IN
FOREIGN MARKETS AND FOREIGN CURRENCIES, THE TIMING OF OPERATING AND OTHER
EXPENDITURES AND OTHER RISKS IDENTIFIED BELOW.

     BECAUSE OF THESE AND OTHER FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT THE COMPANY'S OPERATING
RESULTS, PAST FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED AN INDICATOR OF
FUTURE PERFORMANCE, AND INVESTORS SHOULD NOT USE HISTORICAL TRENDS TO ANTICIPATE
RESULTS OR TRENDS IN FUTURE PERIODS.

FUTURE CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

     The Company used net cash in operations of approximately $822,000 in the
year ended December 31, 1999. There can be no assurance that the Company will
generate positive cash flow from operations in fiscal 2000 or thereafter. The
Company's ability to fund its capital requirements out of available cash,
traditional sources of


                                       10
<PAGE>

financing and cash generated from operations will depend on numerous
factors, including but not limited to the commercial success of the Company's
products and services and the Company's ability to collect payments for certain
sales commitments. As of March 29, 2000 the Company had approximately $7,500,000
in unrestricted cash, including approximately $3,750,000 received by the Company
in connection with the recent financing of the Company's services affiliate,
SkyOnline, Inc., which reduced the Company's ownership in SkyOnline, Inc. from
approximately 44% to approximately 15%. In addition, on March 27, 2000, the
Company obtained a $3,300,000 line of credit from The CIT Group. Should the
Company's business increase significantly, the Company may be required to seek
additional funds through debt or equity financings, product licensing or
distribution transactions or some other source of financing in order to provide
sufficient working capital for the Company. The Company believes that such
alternative sources of financing are available. The issuance of additional
equity securities by the Company could result in substantial dilution to
stockholders. If the Company is required to raise additional working capital,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise such additional
working capital on acceptable terms, if at all.

HISTORY OF LOSSES AND FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS

     Results of operations may fluctuate significantly and will depend upon
numerous factors, including the competitive environment in which the Company
operates, the delays that arise when operating in an international environment,
the long lead time and extended sales effort required to secure larger value
orders that the Company focuses on obtaining, the continued need to invest in
the development of new products and in the enhancement of existing products, the
risk of inventory obsolescence and the exposure to disputes by international
customers.

     The Company has incurred operating losses in 1999, 1998 and 1997. There can
be no assurance that there will not be operating losses in future periods.

     The Company's quarterly operating results fluctuate primarily due to the
timing of product sales. Sales of the Company's products are generally
consummated through large orders which require a long lead-time and an extended
sales effort. The Company's sales in any quarter are dependent on orders booked
and shipped in that quarter. As a result, the precise timing of the recognition
of revenue from an order can have a significant impact on the Company's total
revenues and operating results for a particular period. The Company's operating
results for a particular period could be adversely affected if an order is
cancelled or rescheduled by customers or cannot be shipped in time to recognize
revenue during that period due to, for example, unanticipated manufacturing,
testing, shipping or product acceptance delays. In addition, the Company's
expense levels are based, in large part, on the Company's expectations as to
future revenues and are, therefore, relatively fixed in the short term. If
revenue levels fall below expectations, net income will be disproportionately
and adversely affected. The impact of these and other factors on the Company's
revenues and operating results in any future period cannot be forecast with any
degree of certainty. Accordingly, the Company believes that period-to-period
comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and
should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations."

DEPENDENCE ON BROADBAND MARKET

     In 1999, the Company introduced a family of products to address the growing
demand for high bandwidth applications and Internet access via satellite. This
market is highly competitive and there can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to capture a significant portion of the market. The Company's ability to
penetrate this market will depend on its ability to develop strategic alliances,
reduce product costs, develop further refinements to its products and
successfully develop additional distribution channels for its products.

DEPENDENCE ON VSAT MARKET

     A significant part of the Company's product revenues are derived from sales
of VSAT communications networks. A significant slowdown in the market for VSAT
communications networks and services or the replacement of the existing VSAT
technology by an alternative technology could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.


                                       11
<PAGE>

COMPETITION

     The market for the Company's products is intensely competitive. Many of the
companies that have developed competing technologies and that market competing
products, including Hughes Network Systems and Gilat Satellite Networks, have
significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the
Company. There can be no assurance that the Company's competitors will not
succeed in developing technologies and products that are more effective or less
costly than any which have been or are being developed by the Company or that
would render the Company's technologies or products obsolete or not competitive
or that their greater financial resources will not enable them to penetrate new
markets for VSAT products more quickly than the Company. The Company also
competes against various companies that offer communications network systems
based on other technologies (e.g., terrestrial lines and frame relay or radio
and microwave transmission) that in certain circumstances can be competitive in
price and performance with the Company's products. There can be no assurance
that these or other technologies will not capture a significant part of the
markets in which the Company's VSAT products compete.

RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

     The technology underlying the Company's products and services is subject to
rapid change. The Company's success will depend in part upon its continuing
ability to respond quickly and successfully to technological advances by
developing and introducing new products. Most of the Company's competitors have
substantially greater financial and technical resources than the Company. If one
or more of the Company's competitors were to introduce competing products with
superior technological features, such introduction could have a material adverse
effect on the success of the Company's products.

DEPENDENCE ON EMERGING MARKETS

     The Company has generated approximately 44%, 50% and 14% of its revenue in
Latin and South America in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, 25%, 21% and 6% of
its revenues in Africa and the Middle East in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
and 19%, 17% and 68% of its revenue in Asia in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. The deterioration of the Asian economies in 1998 has impacted and
is continuing to impact the level of revenues that the Company is generating in
Asia. While in any individual year, the Company's revenues generally represent
new projects to new or existing customers in new or existing geographic regions,
there can be no assurance that the present condition of the Asian economies will
not continue to negatively impact the level of revenues generated by the Company
in the Asian markets in future years. In addition, any deterioration in the
Latin American economies could impact the level of revenues that the Company
generates in Latin America.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL

     The Company's future performance is significantly dependent on the
continued active participation of Emil Youssefzadeh, the Company's founder and
Chief Executive Officer. Should Mr. Youssefzadeh leave or otherwise become
unavailable to the Company, the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition may be materially adversely affected. The Company has
obtained a "key man" life insurance policy in the amount of $5,000,000 on the
life of Mr. Youssefzadeh. In addition to Mr. Youssefzadeh, the Company's future
success depends upon its ability to attract and retain additional highly
qualified management and technical personnel. The Company faces intense
competition for qualified personnel, and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to attract and retain such personnel.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY SUPPLIERS AND MANUFACTURERS

     Certain components used by the Company in its existing products are
purchased from single source suppliers and manufacturers. While the Company
maintains an inventory of components and believes that alternative suppliers and
manufacturers for all such components are currently available at reasonable
terms, an interruption in the delivery of these components may have a material
adverse effect on the Company. There can be no assurance as to when or whether
the Company would be able to locate any such alternative suppliers. Furthermore,
there can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter future component
shortages or other disruptions in the supply of materials. Delays associated
with raw materials or component shortages could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.


                                       12
<PAGE>

RURAL TELEPHONY MARKET

     The Company's strategy includes focusing on selling rural telephony
networking infrastructure and terminals for use in developing countries. There
can be no assurance that a substantial market for rural telephony equipment in
developing countries will ever develop, or if such a market does develop, that
fixed-site VSAT-based equipment will capture a significant portion of that
market. The Company's ability to penetrate this market will be dependent on its
ability to develop equipment and software which can be utilized by regional and
local service providers to market and sell the use of such systems. Furthermore,
there can be no assurance that the regional and local service providers will be
able to successfully market such services to rural subscribers.

SALES TO FOREIGN CUSTOMERS

     The Company historically has generated substantially all of its revenue in
overseas markets. While the Company is making efforts to penetrate the domestic
market with its products, the Company's success is dependent upon its ability to
continue to successfully market voice and data VSAT communication networks in
the international market. The Company's export sales, as a percentage of total
revenues, were approximately 93%, 90% and 95% in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. As a result, the Company is subject to various risks, including
currency fluctuations, greater difficulty of administering business globally,
compliance with multiple and potentially conflicting regulatory requirements,
such as export and import requirements, tariffs and other barriers, differences
in intellectual property protections, difficulties in staffing and managing
foreign operations, longer accounts receivable cycles and delays in resolving
customer disputes, repatriation of earnings, export control restrictions,
overlapping or differing tax structures, political and economic instability and
general trade restrictions. If any of these risks materializes, it could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition. In addition, the satellite network service industries in
the Company's target markets are highly regulated, which may limit the number
and identity of potential service providers to which the Company can sell its
products. Given the high degree of regulation in the Company's target market,
and given the fact that such markets, which are primarily developing countries,
involve greater political and economic instability, there can be no assurance
that the Company's products will achieve general market acceptance in the
Company's target markets. The Company's foreign sales are generally invoiced in
U.S. dollars. However, as the Company expands its international sales into new
markets, the Company may be paid in foreign currencies with greater frequency,
and exposure to losses in foreign currency transactions may increase. See
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
CONDITION for a description of the Company's foreign currency exposure in
Brazil. In addition, if the relative value of the U.S. dollar in comparison to
the Company's foreign customers' currency should increase, the resulting
effective price increase of the Company's products to such foreign customers
could result in decreased sales which could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

DEPENDENCE ON PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; RISK OF INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS

     The Company relies on a combination of trade secrets, copyrights,
trademarks, service marks and contractual rights to protect its technology and
software. The Company attempts to protect its trade secrets and other
proprietary information through agreements with its customers, suppliers,
employees and consultants. While the Company has filed certain patent
applications, the Company believes that the improvement of existing products,
reliance upon trade secrets, copyrights and unpatented proprietary know-how and
the development of new products are generally as important as patent protection
in establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage because, among other
reasons, patents often provide only narrow protection which may not provide a
competitive advantage in areas of rapid technological change. The use of trade
secrets and copyrights will not necessarily protect the Company from the use by
other persons of its technology or software, or technology or software that is
similar to that which is embodied in the Company's trade secrets or copyrights.
There can be no assurance that others will not be able to duplicate the
Company's technology and software in whole or in part. In addition, the laws of
certain countries in which the Company's products are or may be developed,
manufactured or sold may not protect the Company's products and intellectual
property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. The
inability of the Company to protect its intellectual property and proprietary
technology could have a material adverse effect on its business, operating
results and financial condition. With respect to the Company's venture into new
fields, the Company believes that patent protection may be necessary.
Accordingly, the Company has applied for some patents and intends to pursue
patent protection for additional products developed by the Company. In addition,
as the number of patents, copyrights and other intellectual property rights in
the Company's industry increases, and as the


                                       13
<PAGE>

coverage of these rights and the functionality of the products of new
markets further overlap, the Company believes that its products may increasingly
become the subject of infringement claims. The Company may in the future be
notified that it is infringing upon certain intellectual property rights of
others. Although the Company has not received any such notification to date, and
there are no pending or threatened intellectual property lawsuits against the
Company, there can be no assurance that such litigation or infringement claims
will not occur in the future. Any such litigation or claims could result in
substantial costs and diversion of resources and could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

DEPENDENCE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS AND CREDIT RISK

     A significant portion of the Company's revenues are derived from a limited
number of customers. The Company's success depends, in part, on its ability to
establish and maintain relationships with such customers. Revenues attributable
to the Company's top two customers in 1999 constituted approximately 41% of the
Company's revenues. As a result, a decrease in revenues generated from either of
these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operation and financial condition. The Company generates a
substantial amount of its revenues from individually significant orders,
primarily on an international basis. These sales are on a letter of credit or a
similar guaranteed basis or on an open account basis. Generally, credit on an
open account basis is only extended to customers with substantial financial
resources or to public utilities that are government owned in the country to
which the product is shipped. There can be no assurance, however, that these
customers will not encounter liquidity problems that could result in exceptional
delays in the payment of or the inability to pay, accounts receivable balances.
In the event of such an occurrence, the Company's financial condition and
results of operations could be adversely affected. (See note 14 to the
consolidated financial statements which discusses sales to Principal Customers.)

POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICES

     The market prices for securities of technology companies, including the
Company, have been volatile. Quarter to quarter variations in operating results,
changes in earnings estimates by analysts, announcements of technological
innovations or new products by the Company or its competitors, announcements of
major contract awards and other events or factors may have a significant impact
on the market price of the Company's Common Stock. In addition, the securities
of many technology companies have experienced extreme price and volume
fluctuations, which have often been unrelated to the companies' operating
performance. These conditions may adversely affect the market price of the
Company's Common Stock. In addition, the Company trades on the NASDAQ National
Market under the symbol "STMI". Failure to meet listing requirements may result
in the Company being moved from the National Market to the SmallCap Market or
being de-listed. As a result, investors could find it more difficult to dispose
of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the value of the Company's Common
Stock and the trading price per share could be reduced.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides for 5,000,000
authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock, the rights, preferences,
qualifications, limitations and restrictions of which may be fixed by the Board
of Directors without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The
Company's charter documents prescribe procedures for the nomination and election
of directors and limit the ability of stockholders to take actions by written
consent which could make it more difficult for stockholders to elect directors
or take other actions. Further, the Company's Bylaws include a "fair price
provision" which requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding
shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors
to approve certain business combinations. In addition, the Company's stock
option plan provides for the acceleration of vesting of options granted under
such plan in the event of certain transactions which result in a change of
control of the Company. Further, Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware prohibits the Company from engaging in certain business combinations
with interested stockholders. These provisions may have the effect of delaying
or preventing a change in control of the Company without action by the
stockholders and therefore could adversely affect the price of the Company's
Common Stock.

CONTROL BY DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND AFFILIATED ENTITIES

     As of March 22, 2000, the Company's officers, directors and their
affiliates owned approximately 21.8% of the outstanding Common Stock. If such
stockholders were to act in concert, they might be able to control


                                       14
<PAGE>

substantially all matters requiring approval by the stockholders of the
Company, including the election of directors. Such concentration of ownership
could discourage or prevent a change in control of the Company. See "Principal
Stockholders."

POTENTIAL PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS

     Although to date the Company has not experienced any product liability
claims, the sale and support of products by the Company involves the risk of
such claims. The Company maintains product liability insurance in amounts it
believes are customary for similar businesses in the industry; however, a
successful product liability claim brought against the Company, in excess of the
amount for which the Company is insured, or for which coverage is not provided
under the Company's insurance policies, could have a material adverse effect
upon the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

YEAR 2000

     The Company has experienced no material disruption in the operation of its
business as a result of the transition from 1999 to 2000. The Company estimates
that it spent less than $1 million in out of pocket expenses through December
31, 1999 to address the year 2000 issue. The Company continues to monitor the
year 2000 issue. It is possible that year 2000 problems (or leap year issues)
may become evident as the year progresses. Such issues could have a material
adverse impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition and
cash flows if the Company is unable to conduct its business in the ordinary
course. In addition, it is possible that our suppliers' and service providers'
failure to adequately address the year 2000 problem could have an adverse effect
on their operations, which, in turn, could have an adverse impact on us.

ITEM 2--PROPERTIES

     The Company's principal offices are located in a 62,000 square foot
facility in Irvine, California, which houses all functions including
manufacturing, engineering, accounting, administration, marketing, sales, and
service. The Company purchased this facility on July 28, 1994 and refinanced the
facility in September 1999. As a result of the refinancing, the Company issued a
promissory mortgage note (the "Mortgage Note") in the amount of $7.0 million.
The Mortgage Note is secured by the Company's land and building and related
fixtures and accrues interest at 7% per annum. The Mortgage Note requires
monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $46,571 and is being
amortized over a thirty-year period and matures on November 2014, at which time
all remaining principal and accrued interest is due. The Company currently
subleases approximately 19,100 square feet of its Irvine facility to

ITEM 6--SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

       The following selected financial data should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere
herein.

       Effective March 31, 1996, the Company sold all the outstanding common
stock of RF Microsystems ("RF"), a wholly-owned subsidiary for $2,926,000. This
sale qualified as a disposal of a segment of a business and accordingly prior
period financial statements have been restated to reflect the discontinuance of
this segment of the business.

       In December 1997, the Company issued 480,000 shares of common stock in
exchange for all the outstanding common stock of Telecom International, Inc.
("TI"), a company that specialized in network systems integration. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly, the
Company's financial statements have been restated to include the results of TI
for all applicable periods. TI commenced operations on June 12, 1995.

       In June 1998, the Company completed the sale of its majority-owned
subsidiary, TMSI, to Inter-Tel, Incorporated ("Inter-Tel") pursuant to which
Inter-Tel agreed to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of
TMSI for approximately $25 million in cash. A gain of $9,950,000 (net of costs
and reserves then considered necessary) was realized and is included in the
consolidated statement of operations data for the year ended December 31, 1998.
In June 1999, upon the release of substantially all the final funds from escrow,
the Company re-evaluated certain accruals that were established at the time of
the sale and concluded that certain of these accruals were no longer required,
resulting in an additional gain of $2,964,000, which has been classified as a
gain on the sale of assets for the year ended December 31, 1999. (See note 3 to
the consolidated financial statements.)

       In 1997, the Company was awarded, through its then 100% owned subsidiary,
DTPI, two long-term service contracts to provide rural telephony services in
Mexico and Venezuela. DTPI was established in 1996 for the purpose of offering
fixed satellite telephony and advanced data services in emerging markets. In
September 1998, DTPI renegotiated its long-term service contract with its
Mexican partner whereby DTPI was paid approximately $9,500,000 (before expenses)
for the sale and installation of remote terminal equipment utilized in the
provision of telephony services. DTPI retained ownership of certain gateway
infrastructure equipment. Both the remote and gateway equipment were classified
as assets for long-term service contracts as part of total assets at
December 31, 1997. As a result of the revision of the agreement, the sales of
remote equipment were classified as revenue in the Company's consolidated
statement of operations data for 1998 and the gateway equipment was classified
as part of


                                       16
<PAGE>


total assets in the consolidated balance sheet data at December 31, 1998. There
were no revenues associated with this Mexican customer in 1999.

       Arising from the award of the long-term service contract in Venezuela in
1998, DTPI formed Altair, S.A. with the national telephone company in Venezuela
to provide telephony services in Venezuela. Through DTPI, the Company owned 49%
of this joint venture and accounted for its investment on an equity basis. The
equity investment of $4,151,000 in Altair is included in the consolidated
balance sheet data at December 31, 1998. Revenues of approximately $740,000 and
$3,600,000, representing sales to Altair, were included in total revenues in
1999 and 1998, respectively, and the equity share of the net loss of Altair for
1999 of $59,000 and the net income of Altair for 1998 of $66,000 was included as
part of the net loss in the consolidated statement of operations data. The
revenues and share of the net loss recognized in 1999 for Altair represent the
revenues and net loss through June 17, 1999. (See notes 4 and 17 to consolidated
financial statements.)

       In March 1998, the Company completed a $10 million equity offering of
common stock of STM for $4,000,000 and mandatory redeemable preferred stock of
DTPI for $6,000,000; representing 25% of the voting stock of DTPI. The net
proceeds from the issuance of the mandatory redeemable preferred stock in DTPI
plus accrued dividends of $6,355,000 were classified as redeemable minority
interest in the consolidated balance sheet data at December 31, 1998. The
accrued dividends of $450,000 and $275,000 (through June 17, 1999), are
classified as minority interest expense in the Company's consolidated statement
of operations data for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

       On June 17, 1999, the Company and DTPI completed a financing whereby the
Company sold shares in DTPI representing approximately 31% of the voting stock
of DTPI for approximately $7,100,000 to REMEC, Inc. ("REMEC") and Pequot Private
Equity Fund ("Pequot"). The proceeds comprised cash of $2,219,000, net of
transaction costs of $281,000, a reduction in accounts payable of approximately
$2,300,000 and an offset against future purchases of inventory for approximately
$2,300,000.

       As a result of the June 17, 1999 financing, the Company reduced its
ownership in the voting stock of DTPI from 75% to approximately 44% and
relinquished operating control of DTPI. Due to losses incurred by DTPI from
inception through June 17, 1999, STM's equity investment in DTPI including a
$7,500,000 note receivable from DTPI was reduced to zero. STM has no funding
obligations to DTPI nor has it guaranteed any obligations of DTPI. Therefore, in
accordance with the Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, "The Equity
Method of Accounting for investments in Common Stock", ("APB 18"), STM
discontinued accruing losses of DTPI. The consolidated results of operations for
1999 include the results of DTPI through June 17, 1999, and the consolidated
balance sheet at December 31, 1999, excludes the assets and liabilities of DTPI.

       In connection with the sale of the shares in DTPI, the Company granted a
concession of $1,600,000 against future purchases of product by DTPI from STM
and agreed to a price adjustment of approximately $1,500,000 with REMEC whereby
the purchase price of all future purchases of committed product from REMEC were
increased. Such liabilities are included in working capital and long-term
liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet data at December 31, 1999. In
addition, DTPI repaid STM $2,500,000 of a $10,000,000 note receivable due to
STM. At December 31, 1999, the remaining balance of the note receivable was
repayable out of the proceeds of future DTPI financings. The remaining balance
was written down to zero due to STM absorbing the losses of DTPI from inception.
However, subsequent to December 31, 1999, DTPI completed a financing resulting
in a payment of $3,750,000 to STM. (See note 20 to consolidated financial
statements.)

       Arising primarily from the devaluation of the Brazilian Real, the Company
incurred foreign currency devaluation costs of $1,906,000 (primarily in the
first quarter of 1999) that comprised losses on cash balances, on certain
account receivable balances (where the Company negotiated a settlement of its
long-term receivable due to the currency devaluation) and on other accounts
receivable balances (where the customer has only partially compensated the
Company for the reduction in the value of the Brazilian Real).

*    The results for the fourth quarter of 1998 included charges of
     approximately $7,100,000 which comprised approximately $2,500,000 for
     inventory obsolescence associated with an earlier version of the Company's
     products, certain items that were considered excess to requirements and
     reserves established for certain inventory on long-term loan to customers,
     approximately $3,200,000 for taxes comprising the write-off of deferred tax
     assets due to uncertainty concerning the realizability of such assets due
     to continued losses by the Company and a reserve established for certain
     tax exposures in Brazil, reserves established for accounts receivable
     balances of approximately $900,000 associated with the Company's Mexican
     partner and other overdue balances and an impairment reserve of $500,000
     associated with the carrying value of certain long-term revenue generating
     assets due to the Mexican partner experiencing financial difficulties.

ITEM 7--MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION

BACKGROUND

        STM is a developer, manufacturer, supplier and service provider of
wireless-based satellite communications infrastructure and user terminal
products utilized in public and private telecommunications networks for
broadband and telephony applications. These networks support IP based data, fax,
voice and video communication and are used to either bypass or extend
terrestrial networks. The Company's product line is based on proprietary
hardware and software and primarily consists of two-way earth stations referred
to as VSATs (very small aperture terminals), associated infrastructure equipment
and software, transceivers, modems and other networking equipment. Historically,
the Company has focused its sales efforts on the international marketplace,
particularly developing countries. For the year ended December 31, 1999,
approximately 93% of the Company's revenue was generated in

                                       19
<PAGE>


the international market through foreign distributors and sales representatives.
The Company's customers include government agencies, telephone companies,
multi-location corporations and others.

        In December 1997, the Company issued 480,000 shares of common stock in
exchange for all the outstanding common stock of Telecom International, Inc.
("TI"), a company that specializes in network systems integration. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly, the
Company's consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the
results of TI for all applicable periods.

        In June 1998, the Company completed the sale of its then majority-owned
subsidiary, TMSI, to Inter-Tel, Incorporated ("Inter-Tel") pursuant to which
Inter-Tel agreed to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of
TMSI for approximately $25 million in cash. A gain of $9,950,000 (net of costs
and reserves then considered necessary) was realized and is included in the
consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1998. In
June 1999, upon the release of substantially all the funds from escrow, the
Company re-evaluated certain accruals that were established at the time of the
sale and concluded that certain of these accruals were no longer required
resulting in an additional gain of $2,964,000, which has been classified as a
gain on the sale of assets for the year ended December 31, 1999. (See notes 3
and 12 to the consolidated financial statements.)

        In 1997, the Company was awarded, through its then 100% owned
subsidiary, DTPI, two long-term service contracts to provide rural telephony
services in Mexico and Venezuela. DTPI was established in 1996 for the purpose
of offering fixed satellite telephony and advanced data services in emerging
markets. In September 1998, DTPI renegotiated its long-term service contract
with its Mexican partner whereby DTPI was paid approximately $9,500,000 (before
expenses) for the sale and installation of remote terminal equipment utilized in
the provision of telephony services. DTPI retained ownership of certain gateway
infrastructure equipment. As a result of the revision of the agreement, the
sales of remote equipment were classified as revenue in the Company's
consolidated statement of operations for 1998 and the gateway equipment was
classified as Property, Plant and Equipment in the consolidated balance sheet at
December 31, 1998. There were no revenues associated with this Mexican customer
in 1999.

        Arising from the award of the long-term service contract in Venezuela in
1998, DTPI formed Altair with the national telephone company in Venezuela to
provide telephony services in Venezuela. Through DTPI, the Company owned 49% of
this joint venture and accounted for its investment on an equity basis. The
equity investment of $4,151,000 in Altair was included in the consolidated
balance sheet at December 31, 1998. Revenues of approximately $740,000 and
$3,600,000 were included in total revenues in 1999 and 1998, respectively, and
the equity share of the net loss of Altair for 1999 of $59,000 and the net
income for 1998 of $66,000 was included in the consolidated statements of
operations for 1999 and 1998, respectively. The revenues and share of net loss
recognized in 1999 for Altair represent the results of Altair through June 17,
1999. (See notes 4 and 17 to consolidated financial statements.)

        In March 1998, the Company completed a $10 million equity offering of
common stock of STM for $4,000,000 and mandatory redeemable preferred stock of
DTPI for $6,000,000; representing 25% of the voting stock of DTPI. The proceeds
from the issuance of the mandatory redeemable preferred stock in DTPI plus
accrued dividends of $6,355,000 were classified as redeemable minority interest
in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1998. The dividends of
$450,000 and $275,000 (through June 17, 1999), are classified as minority
interest in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the years
ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

        On June 17, 1999, the Company and DTPI completed a financing whereby the
Company sold shares in DTPI representing approximately 31% of the voting stock
of DTPI for approximately $7,100,000 to REMEC, Inc. ("REMEC") and Pequot Private
Equity Fund ("Pequot"). The proceeds comprised cash of $2,219,000, net of
transaction costs of $281,000, a reduction in accounts payable of approximately
$2,300,000 and an offset against future purchases of inventory for approximately
$2,300,000.

        As a result of the June 17, 1999 financing, the Company reduced its
ownership in the voting stock of DTPI from 75% to approximately 44%. In
addition, in June 1999, DTPI appointed a new Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer. These factors resulted in the Company relinquishing operating control
of DTPI and the Company changed it's accounting for DTPI from a full
consolidation method to the equity method. However, due to losses incurred by
DTPI from inception through June 17, 1999, STM's equity investment in DTPI,
including a $7,500,000 note receivable from DTPI, was reduced to zero. STM has
no funding obligations to DTPI nor has it guaranteed any obligations of DTPI.
Therefore, in accordance with the APB18, STM discontinued accruing losses of
DTPI. The

                                       20

results of operations for 1999 include the results of DTPI through June 17,
1999, and the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999, excludes the
assets and liabilities of DTPI.

        In connection with the sale of the shares in DTPI, the Company granted a
concession of $1,600,000 against future purchases of product by DTPI from STM
and agreed to a price adjustment of approximately $1,500,000 with REMEC whereby
the purchase price of all future purchases of committed product from REMEC were
increased. In addition, DTPI repaid STM $2,500,000 of a $10,000,000 note
receivable due to STM.

</TABLE>

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999, COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998

        Total revenues (including DTPI through June 17, 1999) were $22,226,000
for 1999, compared to $42,022,000 for 1998, representing a decrease of 47% over
the prior year period. Product revenues were $19,962,000 for 1999, compared to
$39,355,000 for 1998 representing a decrease of 49% over the prior year period.
Service revenues were $2,264,000 for 1999, compared to $2,667,000 for 1998,
representing a decrease of 15% over the prior year.

        Excluding DTPI (in which the Company sold its controlling interest
effective June 17, 1999) from both 1999 and 1998, total revenues, product
revenues and service revenues would have been $21,392,000, $19,222,000 and
$2,170,000, respectively, for 1999 compared with $28,419,000, $27,708,000 and
$711,000, respectively, for 1998, representing decreases of 25% and 31% in total
revenues and product revenues, respectively, and an increase in service revenues
of 205%. The increase in service revenues reflects the higher service content of
certain 1999 projects and increased revenue earned by the company's Asian
service center in 1999 (its first full year of operation). The level of service
revenue can vary depending on the projects in any given period.

        The overall lower level of revenues, excluding DTPI, in 1999 compared to
1998 relates to a lower level of revenues earned in Asia, the Middle East and in
the United States in 1999, partially offset by an increase in revenues in Latin
America. The Company's revenues in total and by region can vary significantly
depending upon the timing of projects and the value of individual projects. In
addition, the economic uncertainty in emerging markets continues to impair the
sales cycle for the Company's products. Revenue opportunities were also
adversely impacted by the significant devaluation and continued instability in
the Brazilian currency in 1999. As part of its restructuring of the

                                       21
<PAGE>


operations of the Company, management has reorganized its sales activities
through personnel changes and there is more direct involvement by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company in the sales activities. Sales efforts are
focused on specific customers and specific known and identified projects.
Management recognizes that its historical focus on the emerging markets has been
successful in terms of the broad geographical spread of its customer base but
has been unsuccessful in terms of producing consistent revenue growth and
stability. For the future, the Company intends to focus more attention on United
States domestic sales through developing products more suitable to that market
and by developing strategic relationships with larger industry players with
complementary product offerings. However, there can be no assurance that such
efforts will generate any revenue or any specific level of revenues.

        The gross profit percentage earned for 1999 was 25% compared to 17% in
1998. Excluding DTPI (in which the Company sold its controlling interest on June
17, 1999), the gross profit percentages would have been 35% for 1999, compared
to 28% for 1998. The gross profit, excluding DTPI for 1998 was positively
impacted by the realization of intercompany profits previously deferred on the
sale of equipment by DTPI to its Mexican partner and was negatively impacted by
inventory reserves of $2,640,000. Adjusted for these matters, the gross profit,
excluding DTPI, would have been approximately 21% for 1998. The improved gross
profit percentages for STM excluding DTPI, in 1999, reflects primarily improved
margins earned on the Company's new lower cost products and lower system
integration sales in 1999 (which typically have a lower gross profit
percentage). The average gross profit percentage (excluding DTPI) earned in
quarters two to four of 1999 was 39%.

        Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for 1999 decreased
to $8,118,000 (37% of revenue) from $12,746,000 (30% of revenue) for 1998.
Excluding DTPI (in which the Company sold its controlling interest on June 17,
1999), in 1999 SG&A would have decreased to $6,608,000 (31% of revenue) compared
to $10,186,000 (36% of revenue) for 1998. Excluding DTPI, the reduction in SG&A
in 1999 compared to 1998 reflects reduced costs primarily in the second through
the fourth quarters of 1999 arising from the cost reduction programs implemented
by the Company in the first and second quarters of 1999.

        Research and development (R&D) costs for 1999 decreased to $5,354,000
(24% of revenues) from $8,102,000 (19% of revenues) in 1998. There were no R&D
expenses associated with DTPI. The decrease in R&D costs in 1999 compared to
1998 primarily relate to (i) cost reductions (including some headcount
reductions) due to completion of the development of the Company's new low cost
VSAT products, (ii) a charge of approximately $1,400,000 in 1998 for a
contractually committed R&D project with no discernable future benefit, and
(iii) the absence in 1999 of any R&D costs associated with TMSI (the assets of
which were sold in June 1998).

        The restructuring costs of $1,042,000 recognized in 1999 related to cost
reduction programs implemented in the first 6 months of 1999 and comprised
severance costs associated with approximately 70 terminated employees, the
write-off of certain assets in the Company's Brazilian subsidiary and the cost
of exiting a lease commitment, which was determined to be in excess of current
requirements. (See note 19 to the consolidated financial statements.)

        The move and relocation charges of $980,000 in 1998 primarily comprised
severance, relocation and move costs incurred in connection with the
consolidation of the Company's Network Systems Division in Georgia.

        The gain on sale of assets of $9,950,000 in 1998 represented a gain (net
of costs incurred and reserves then considered necessary) on the sale of
substantially all the assets of TMSI. In June 1999, upon the release of
substantially all the final funds from escrow, the Company re-evaluated certain
accruals that were established at the time of the sale, resulting in the
recognition of $2,964,000 as an additional gain on the sale of assets of TMSI in
1999.

        The foreign currency devaluation costs of $1,906,000 in 1999 arose
primarily from the devaluation of the Brazilian Real and comprised losses on
cash balances, on certain account receivable balances (where the Company
negotiated a settlement of its long-term receivable due to the currency
devaluation) and on other accounts receivable balances (where the customer only
partially compensated the Company for the reduction in the value of the
Brazilian Real).

        Interest income increased by $242,000 to $1,221,000 in 1999 from
$979,000 in 1998. Excluding DTPI (in which the Company sold its controlling
interest on June 17, 1999), interest income would have been $980,000 in 1999
compared with $664,000 for 1998. The increase in interest income, excluding
DTPI, for 1999 primarily relates

                                       22
<PAGE>


to interest income recognized on a note receivable due from DTPI subsequent to
the deconsolidation of DTPI. (See notes 4 and 17 to the consolidated financial
statements.)

        Interest expense increased to $1,491,000 in 1999 from $1,476,000 in
1998. There was no external interest expense associated with DTPI. For 1999, the
average level of borrowings decreased compared with 1998. However, in 1999 the
Company paid a higher effective rate of interest on its line of credit
borrowings due to the Company and its bank negotiating a pay down of its
borrowings. (See note 8 to the consolidated financial statements.)

        The absence of a tax provision in 1999 is due to continued losses by the
Company. No deferred tax benefit has been recognized due to uncertainty as to
relizability of such benefit due to the continuing losses. The tax liabilities
recognized represent estimated liabilities for foreign exposures. The tax
provision of $3,698,000 in 1998 reflected the write-off of the Company's
deferred tax assets at December 31, 1998, due to uncertainty concerning the
ability to realize such assets as a result of the Company's continued losses and
a $1,000,000 provision established for overseas tax liabilities.

        The equity in net income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliate for 1998 and
1999 represented the Company's share of the loss for 1999 and income for 1998 of
DTPI's Venezuelan affiliate which was accounted for on an equity basis.
Coinciding with the Company relinquishing control of DTPI there was no equity
pick-up required after June 17, 1999.

        The minority interest charge in 1999 related to accrued dividends
(representing accretion to the liquidation preference) through June 17, 1999, on
the mandatory redeemable shares issued in March 1998 by DTPI. In 1998, the
minority interest charge represented the accrued dividends on the mandatory
redeemable shares of DTPI for the period April 1, 1998, through December 31,
1998, and a minority interest credit associated with TMSI through the date of
sale of the assets of TMSI in June 1998.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997

        Revenues decreased to $42,022,000 in 1998 from $52,148,000 in 1997. The
decrease of $10,126,000 was primarily in product revenues. In 1997, the Company
benefited from a $30 million product sale to a customer in Southeast Asia that
was fully recognized as revenue in 1997. During 1998, due to the Asian crisis,
revenues from Asia decreased from $35,630,000 in 1997 to $7,309,000 in 1998. The
Company refocused its sales efforts to Latin and South America, Africa and the
Middle East in an effort to recover momentum in the business. In addition, in
1998, the Company renegotiated its long-term service contract with DTPI's
Mexican partner resulting in approximately $9,500,000 of revenue and generated
revenues of approximately $3,600,000 from DTPI's Venezuelan Altair joint
venture. The Company believes that the diversion of management attention to the
setting up of the DTPI service business as well as the Asian financial crisis,
in general, were the primary reasons for the decline in product revenues in 1998
compared to 1997. The effect of the Asian crisis carried forward in 1999. The
increase in service revenue in 1998 compared to 1997 related to service revenues
generated by the Company's DTPI long-term service business, which commenced
operations in late 1997. Approximately $1,400,000 of such service revenues were
from DTPI's Mexican partner (see note 5 to the consolidated financial
statements), which experienced financial difficulties in late 1998, resulting in
no on-going revenue from this customer.

        Gross profit decreased to 17% of revenues in 1998 compared to 26% in
1997. The decrease to 17% in 1998 related to inventory reserves of approximately
$2,640,000 established in 1998 and direct costs associated with the DTPI
business of approximately $2,200,000 that did not exist in 1997 due to DTPI only
commencing operations in December 1997. The inventory reserves were for (i)
inventory obsolescence associated with an earlier version of the Company's
products, (ii) certain items that are considered excess to requirements and,
(iii) reserves considered necessary for product on long-term loan to certain
customers. The product gross profit percentage is comparable year on year when
adjusted for the inventory reserves. The service gross profit decreased from 43%
in 1997 to a negative 11% and reflected the direct infrastructure costs of
establishing DTPI as well as a $500,000 impairment reserve established against
certain gateway equipment associated with the DTPI's Mexican partner where there
was an impairment of the carrying value of revenue generating assets, due to the
Mexican partner experiencing financial difficulties.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses in 1998 were $12,746,000
compared to $9,589,000 in 1997. As a percentage of revenues, these expenses
increased to 30% in 1998 from 18% in 1997. The dollar increase of $3,157,000 in
1998 compared to 1997 reflects increased costs of approximately $2,600,000
relating to DTPI that did not exist in the prior year and other general
increases in costs including bad debt reserves, rent on the Company's

                                       23
<PAGE>


new Atlanta facility with associated administrative overhead and an increased
number of sales personnel. The increase in percentage terms reflects the
relatively fixed nature of such costs irrespective of the level of revenues.

        Research and development costs were $8,102,000 in 1998 as compared to
$6,387,000 in 1997. As a percentage of revenues, these costs increased to 19% in
1998 as compared to 12% in 1997. The dollar increase was due to expenditures for
personnel and outside services in support of the Company's continuing new
product development efforts for the SES and SpaceWeb products and an expense of
approximately $1,400,000 for a contractually committed research and development
project with no discernible future benefit that was recognized in 1998.

        The move and relocation charges of $980,000 in 1998 primarily comprised
severance, relocation and move costs incurred in connection with the
consolidation of the Company's Network Systems Division in Georgia.

        The gain on sale of assets of $9,950,000 in 1998 represented a gain (net
of costs and reserves then considered necessary at the time) on the sale of the
Company's majority-owned subsidiary, TMSI. The reserves established primarily
related to exposures to litigation, intellectual property indemnifications,
customer concessions, license fees and management bonuses. (See note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements.)

        Interest income increased by $295,000 to $979,000 in 1998, compared to
1997. The increase in interest income was due primarily to higher cash deposits
being maintained by the Company as a result of the issuance of shares for cash
by both STM and DTPI, the sale of the assets of TMSI, the receipt of cash from
the DTPI's long-term service agreement in Mexico and higher level of bank
borrowings in 1998 compared to 1997.

        Interest expense increased by $494,000 to $1,476,000 in 1998 compared to
1997. The increase was primarily due to an increase in short-term borrowings
from banks compared to 1997 when the Company partially financed its working
capital requirements by discounting letters of credit from customers at a lower
cost.

        The tax provision of $3,698,000 in 1998, compared to a tax benefit of
$306,000 in 1997, reflected the write-off of the Company's deferred tax assets
at December 31, 1998, due to uncertainty concerning the ability to realize such
assets as a result of the Company experiencing continued losses and a tax
provision of $1,000,000 established for tax exposures in Brazil.

        The minority interest charge relates to accrued dividends on the
mandatory redeemable shares issued in March 1998, by DTPI (see note 10 to the
consolidated financial statements), offset by a credit associated with TMSI's
minority interest in the first quarter of 1998 (prior to the sale of TMSI in the
second quarter of 1998).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        In 1999, the Company completed a financing package through the sale of
shares in DTPI for cash of $2,500,000, credits of approximately $4,600,000 and
the partial repayment of $2,500,000 of a note receivable due from DTPI, which in
total made funds of approximately $9,600,000 available. In addition, in October
1999, the Company refinanced its corporate headquarters through a deed of trust
for $7,000,000 thereby paying off existing debt on the headquarters of
approximately $4,000,000 and generating additional cash of approximately
$3,000,000. With these cash resources, in December 1999 the Company fully paid
down borrowings under a short term line of credit.

        Subsequent to December 31, 1999, DTPI (the Company's 44% affiliate which
was deconsolidated effective June 17, 1999, as a result of the Company reducing
its ownership in the voting stock of DTPI) reached agreement with third party
investors to invest new capital of $45,000,000 in DTPI. Under the terms of this
agreement, DTPI paid STM cash of $3,750,000 and STM's ownership in DTPI was
reduced to approximately 15%. (See note 20 to the consolidated financial
statements.)

        The Company recently obtained a new line of credit for approximately
$3,300,000 which should make additional cash of approximately $2,800,000
available to the Company.

        In 1999, the Company had negative cash flows from operations of $822,000
compared to $19,430,000 in 1998. Certain non-cash items plus a reduction of
$8,004,000 in accounts receivable reduced the usage of cash by the net loss for
1999 from $8,311,000 to the cash used in operations of $822,000. The net cash
usage from operations in 1998 was primarily a result of net losses for the year,
increases in accounts receivable and inventories and decreases in accounts
payable.

                                       24
<PAGE>


        In 1999, the Company generated $810,000 from investing activities
compared to $13,828,000 in 1998. In 1998, the Company generated $17,299,000 from
the sale of TMSI and $1,821,000 from the sale of short-term investments and used
$3,168,000 to invest in Altair, $1,500,000 for purchases of property, plant and
equipment and $624,000 to increase restricted assets. In 1999, the Company
generated cash of $4,719,000 from the June 1999 financing and $1,106,000 from
the sale of short-term investments and used cash of $3,149,000 which was
forfeited upon deconsolidation of DTPI, $1,102,000 to invest in Altair, $466,000
to increase restricted cash and $298,000 for purchases of property, plant and
equipment.

        In 1999, net cash used in financing activities was $5,716,000 compared
to cash generated of $12,523,000 in 1998. In 1998, the Company generated
$9,988,000 from the sale of shares, $2,750,000 from an increase in short-term
borrowings offset by a net usage of $215,000 associated with long-term debt. In
1999, the Company generated $2,939,000 net from refinancing its corporate
headquarters and used $8,650,000 by repaying short-term borrowings.

        Overall, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
(excluding restricted balances) totaled $4,441,000 at December 31, 1999 compared
to $12,122,000 at December 31, 1998.

        Management expects to have sufficient cash generated from operations,
through availability under lines of credit, cash received from DTPI and through
other sources to meet the anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve
months.

        In September, 1994 the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock
repurchase program whereby the Company may repurchase, in the open market, up to
10% of its shares outstanding, at times and prices to be determined by the
Board. The repurchased shares would be used for potential future acquisitions
and for exercises under the Company's stock option plans. The Company has not
repurchased any shares to date nor does it have any present commitments or
intention to repurchase shares at this time.

YEAR 2000

        The Company has experienced no material disruption in the operation of
its business as a result of the transition from 1999 to 2000. The Company
estimates that it spent less than $1 million in out-of-pocket expenses through
December 31, 1999, to address the year 2000 issue. The Company continues to
monitor the year 2000 issue. It is possible that year 2000 problems (or leap
year issues) may become evident as the year progresses. Such issues could have a
material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations, financial
condition and cash flows if the Company is unable to conduct it business in the
ordinary course.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

        In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS
137, is effective for all fiscal quarters or fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for
hedging activities. Adoption of SFAS 133 is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations
or liquidity.

ITEM 7A--QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        To avoid the risk of fluctuating exchange rates associated with
international sales, the Company conducts most international sales in United
States currency. However, prior to the devaluation of the Brazilian currency in
January 1999 the Company had generated a significant portion of its Brazilian
revenue in the local currency of Brazil. While the contracts relating to such
arrangements generally contained provisions that called for payments to be
adjusted to take into account fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates,
the Company's customers in Brazil expressed an unwillingness to adjust contract
amounts to fully reflect some of the exchange rate fluctuations. Brazilian
counsel advised the Company that there is uncertainty as to the enforceability
of provisions which tie payments to foreign currency rates (see note 6 to the
consolidated financial statements). The Company, therefore, whenever possible,
negotiates sales from Brazilian customers in U.S. dollars to avoid any
uncertainty as to the value of receivables. The Company does not use derivatives
to manage any foreign currency exposures.

                                       25
<PAGE>


        The Company's exposure to market risk is mainly comprised of interest
rate risk and credit risk related to its short-term investments. The Company
addresses these risks by monitoring credit quality standards and maturity dates
of investments. The Company's exposure to market risk is not expected to be
material. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments in its
investment portfolio.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                  YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999, 1998 AND 1997

(1)     DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY

        STM Wireless, Inc. (the "Company" or "STM") is a developer, manufacturer
and provider of wireless-based satellite communications infrastructure and user
terminal products utilized in public and private telecommunications networks for
broadband and telephony applications. These networks support IP based data, fax,
voice and video communication and are used to either bypass or extend
terrestrial networks. The Company's product line is based on proprietary
hardware and software and primarily consists of two-way earth stations referred
to as VSATs (very small aperture terminals), associated infrastructure equipment
and software, transceivers, modems and other networking equipment. The Company
historically has focused its sales efforts on the international marketplace,
particularly developing countries. The Company's former subsidiary, SkyOnline,
Inc., formerly known as Direc-To-Phone International, Inc. ("DTPI"), provides
telecommunications services in international markets.

(2)     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

        The consolidated financial statements include the financial results of
the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Telecom Multimedia
Systems, Inc., ("TMSI") for all periods through March 1998, and DTPI for all
periods from inception through June 1999. All significant intercompany balances
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES

        The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. In preparing the financial statements,
management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and revenues and expenses
for the periods presented. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

        Sales of the Company's communications products and related installed
software are generally recognized upon shipment. Sales of the Company's products
to distributors are normally not subject to right of return. Service revenues
are recognized when services have been performed.

        Revenues from certain long-term product and service contracts are
recognized under the percentage-of-completion method, whereby contract costs are
expensed as incurred and revenues are recorded based on the ratio of costs
incurred to total estimated costs at completion. If the estimate of total
contract costs results in a loss, a provision is made currently for the total
anticipated loss.

        The Company generally warrants its products to be free from defects for
a period of one year from shipment. Estimated warranty liabilities are evaluated
for adequacy on an on-going basis.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

        Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments which are readily
convertible into known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three
months or less, consisting primarily of cash, certificates of deposit and other
money market instruments.

SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

        The Company's short-term investments consist primarily of certificates
of deposit with original maturities between 90 and 360 days. As of December 31,
1998, the fair market value of these securities approximates cost. There were no
short-term investments at December 31, 1999.

RESTRICTED ASSETS

        Cash and short-term investments whose use is restricted are classified
separately as restricted cash and short-term investments.

INVENTORIES

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method)
or market and consist of the following:

        Certain components used by the Company in its existing products are
purchased from single source suppliers and manufacturers. While the Company
maintains an inventory of components and believes that alternative suppliers and
manufacturers for all such components are available at reasonable terms, an
interruption in the delivery of these components may have a material adverse
effect on the Company.

        In December 1998, the Company increased its inventory reserves by
approximately $2,640,000 to recognize the increased risk of obsolescence
associated with previous generations of the Company's products, certain other
items that were considered excess to requirements and certain inventory on
long-term loan to customers. In 1999, the Company reduced its inventory reserves
by approximately $189,000 through the sale of inventory, previously reserved.

EQUITY METHOD OF ACCOUNTING

        Investments in twenty to fifty percent-owned affiliates are accounted
for under the equity method of accounting, whereby the investment in and
advances to the affiliate are carried at cost, plus the Company's equity in
undistributed earnings or losses since acquisition. The Company defers its share
of the profits or losses on sales to affiliates and when appropriate these
amounts are amortized to income. In accordance with Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 18, "The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common
Stock", ("APB18"), when an equity investment is reduced to zero and there are no
funding obligations or guarantees of the obligations of the affiliate, the
Company does not accrue any future losses of the affiliate and discontinues the
equity method until such time that the affiliate is profitable. Reserves are
provided where management determines that the investment or equity in earnings
has been permanently impaired. As of December 31, 1999, and 1998, no such
reserves were considered necessary.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

        Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings are
depreciated over 30 years. Satellite equipment, other equipment and furniture
and fixtures are depreciated over 3-5 years. Assets used for long-term service
contracts associated with DTPI's business were depreciated commencing when the
asset was placed in service, over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or
the lives of the contracts to which they related. Leasehold improvements are
amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the term of the
lease.

LONG-TERM RECEIVABLES

        Long-term receivables are recorded at cost. Management, considering
current information and events regarding the borrowers' ability to repay their
obligations, considers a note to be impaired when it is probable that the
Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual
terms of the note agreement. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the
amount of the impairment is measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the note's effective interest rate. Cash
receipts on impaired notes receivable

are applied to reduce the principal amount of such notes until the principal has
been recovered and are recognized as interest income, thereafter. As of December
31, 1998, the Company did not consider an allowance for impaired notes
receivable to be necessary. Arising from the currency devaluation in Brazil in
1999, the Company negotiated a settlement of certain long-term receivables from
a customer in Brazil. The loss arising of $584,000 has been classified as a part
of the foreign currency devaluation costs in the accompanying consolidated
statement of operations in 1999.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        As of December 31, 1999, and 1998, the carrying value of cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and
income taxes payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such
instruments. The carrying value of short-term investments approximates fair
value based on quoted market prices for those or similar investments. The fair
value of all debt and long-term receivables approximate fair value as the
related interest rates approximate rates currently available to/from the
Company.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

        All research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred
and primarily consist of salaries and applicable overhead expenses of employees
directly involved in the design of the satellite network hardware and software
and certain third party outside service costs.

INCOME TAXES

        Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.
This method generally provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities be
recognized for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and
the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities and expected benefits of
utilizing net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards. The Company records a
valuation allowance for certain temporary differences for which it is not more
likely than not that it will realize future tax benefits. The impact on deferred
taxes of changes in tax rates and laws, if any, are applied to the years during
which temporary differences are expected to be settled and reflected in the
financial statements in the period of enactment.

STOCK OPTIONS PLANS

        The Company measures stock-based compensation for employees using the
intrinsic-value method which assumes that options granted with exercise prices
at the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant have no
intrinsic value. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," pro forma net loss
and net loss per share are presented in note 11 as if the fair value method had
been applied.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF

        Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in value based upon
undiscounted future operating cash flows, and appropriate losses are recognized
whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

        The Company has determined that the U.S. dollar is the functional
currency for its subsidiaries outside the U.S. under SFAS No. 52, "Foreign
Currency Translation" ("SFAS 52"). Based on this determination, the Company's
foreign operations are measured by reflecting the financial results of such
operations as if they had taken place within a U.S. dollar-based economic
environment. Inventory, fixed assets and other non-monetary assets and
liabilities are remeasured from foreign currencies to U.S. dollars at historical
exchange rates whereas cash, accounts receivable and other monetary assets and
liabilities are remeasured at current exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting
from those remeasurements are included in income for the current period. In
1999, the Company incurred foreign currency devaluation costs of $1,906,000
primarily associated with the devaluation of the Brazilian

currency. Such costs are included in the consolidated statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1999. Foreign currency losses in 1998 and 1997
were not material.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS
137, is effective for all periods for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
2000. SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts and for hedging activities. SFAS 133 requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. Application of SFAS 133 is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

        Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and 1997
consolidated financial statements to conform to the 1999 presentation.

(3)     ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

TELECOM INTERNATIONAL, INC.

        On December 12, 1997, the Company issued 480,000 shares of its common
stock in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Telecom
International, Inc. ("TI"). TI was a system integrator and installer of large
satellite terminals used in rural telephony and enterprise networks. The merger
was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly, all financial
statements have been restated as if the merger took place at the beginning of
1997.

TELECOM MULTIMEDIA SYSTEMS, INC.

        In August 1995, the Company purchased 72.5% of the outstanding common
stock and newly issued preferred stock of Telecom Multimedia Systems, Inc.
("TMSI") for $1,000,000 cash and 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock
valued at $18.75 per share. The acquisition of TMSI was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to
the net assets acquired based upon their estimated fair market values.

        In 1998, the Company sold certain assets and transferred certain
liabilities of TMSI for approximately $25 million in cash. Gains of
approximately $2,964,000 and $9,950,000 (net of transaction costs, certain
normal course reserves considered necessary and reserves required for certain
contingent liabilities) were recognized in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations in 1999 and 1998, respectively. Included in the
consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 1999 and 1998, is approximately
$88,000 and $1,000,000, respectively, of cash in escrow classified as accounts
receivable and approximately $880,000 and $4,300,000, respectively, classified
as accrued liabilities, related to the disposition of TMSI.

        In connection with the sale of the assets of TMSI, the Company is
required to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer for certain losses,
liabilities, claims, damages, expense or diminution of value arising directly or
indirectly from or in connection with a breach of any representation, covenant,
claim for expenses, liabilities which are not assumed, taxes or specific
customer claims. The indemnification provisions apply for periods ranging from 2
years to 6 years depending upon the nature of the exposure. The maximum exposure
to the Company under the indemnification provisions is $9,000,000. In addition,
there are potential liabilities to customers that are specific to TMSI.

        The Company established accruals of approximately $3,700,000 at the time
of the sale in June 1999 (comprised of a customer claim, intellectual property
exposures and management bonuses) and these balances were included as a
component of accrued liabilities at December 31, 1998.

                               STM WIRELESS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)


        In June 1999, upon the release of substantially all of the funds from
escrow, the Company reevaluated certain accruals that were established at the
time of the sale and concluded that certain of these accruals were no longer
required, resulting in an additional gain of $2,964,000 which has been
classified as a gain on the sale of assets in the accompanying consolidated
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. At December 31,
1999, a balance of approximately $880,000 continues to be accrued primarily
associated with a specific customer dispute and is classified as part of accrued
liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 1999.

        The accompanying consolidated statements of operations reflect the
operations of TMSI through March 31, 1998, the effective date of disposal.

        The following sets out summarized financial information giving effect to
the disposal of TMSI.

(4)     DECONSOLIDATION OF DTPI

        STM incorporated DTPI in 1996. In March 1998, the Company invested $15
million in DTPI, (comprising $5 million for 1,000,000 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, and a $10 million loan) and entered into a Product Supply
Agreement with DTPI. The loan was repayable out of the proceeds of future DTPI
financings. Through June 17, 1999, STM consolidated the results of DTPI.

        In June 1999, the Company and DTPI completed a financing whereby the
Company sold shares in DTPI representing approximately 31% of the voting stock
of DTPI for approximately $7,100,000 to REMEC, Inc. ("REMEC") and two funds
managed by Pequot Capital Management, Inc. ("Pequot"), thereby reducing STM's
ownership to 44% of the voting stock of DTPI.

        In addition, in June 1999, DTPI announced the appointment of a new
chairman and chief executive officer of DTPI. As a result, STM relinquished
operating control of DTPI and changed its accounting for DTPI from the full
consolidation method to the equity method, effective June 17, 1999.

        Due to the losses incurred by DTPI from inception through June 17, 1999,
STM's equity investment in DTPI has been reduced to zero. STM has no funding
obligations to DTPI nor has STM guaranteed any obligations of DTPI. Therefore,
in accordance with APB18, STM has not accrued any losses of DTPI subsequent to
June 17, 1999, and will only apply the equity method of accounting for DTPI, at
such time that DTPI is profitable and losses not previously recognized are fully
recovered. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the
year ended December 31, 1999, only includes the results of DTPI for the period
January 1, 1999, through June 17, 1999.

        The proceeds of $7,100,000 comprised cash of $2,219,000 net of
transaction costs of $281,000, a reduction in accounts payable of approximately
$2,300,000 and a credit against future purchases of inventory for approximately
$2,300,000. Due to uncertainty concerning the recoverability of the $2,300,000
credit against future purchases, such credit was fully reserved at June 30,
1999, but will be recognized when realized as income in future periods.
Approximately $125,000 of such credits were realized through December 31, 1999.

                               STM WIRELESS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)


        In connection with the sale of the shares in DTPI, STM granted a price
adjustment of approximately $1,500,000 to REMEC whereby the price of all future
purchases of committed product from REMEC were increased and STM granted DTPI a
concession of $1,600,000 against future purchases of product by DTPI from STM.
These obligations were accrued at the time of sale of the DTPI shares.

        DTPI also repaid STM $2,500,000 of a $10,000,000 note receivable from
DTPI, with the remaining balance of $7,500,000 of the note to be repaid out of
the proceeds of future DTPI financings, if any. As a result of the foregoing,
there was no gain or loss recognized on the sale of the DTPI shares. (See note
20.)

        The following sets out summarized financial information giving effect to
the deconsolidation of DTPI.

DTPI's long-term fixed telephony service operations in Mexico. In 1998, DTPI
renegotiated its long-term service contract with its Mexican partner whereby
DTPI was paid approximately $9,500,000 (before expenses) for the sale and
installation of remote terminal equipment utilized in the provision of telephony
services. Under the terms of the revised agreement, DTPI retained ownership of
certain gateway infrastructure equipment, which was classified as assets for
long-term service contracts at December 31, 1998. The sales of remote equipment
were classified as revenue in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations for 1998.

        Due to uncertainty surrounding the recoverability of the gateway
equipment at December 31, 1998, as a result of the Mexican partner experiencing
financial difficulties, DTPI recognized an impairment charge of $500,000, in

accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of", to adjust the carrying
value of the equipment to its estimated fair value.

(6)     LONG-TERM RECEIVABLES

        The Company's long-term receivables as of December 31, 1998 related
primarily to a lease of certain satellite equipment to a customer in Brazil
under a sales-type lease arrangement. Total minimum lease payments receivable
(including interest receivable) on this sales-type lease were $1,632,000 at
December 31, 1998, comprising principal of $1,490,000 and unearned interest of
$142,000.

        The receivables were denominated in the Brazilian local currency,
however, the customer contracts contained adjustment provisions to take into
account fluctuations in the local currency against the U.S. dollar. These
adjustment provisions were honored in prior years.

        Arising from the devaluation of the Brazilian local currency in the
first quarter of 1999, the customer was unwilling to honor the adjustment
provisions of the contract due to the extent of the devaluation. Brazilian
counsel advised the Company that there was uncertainty as to the enforceability
of such adjustment provisions under Brazilian law. Therefore, the Company
negotiated a settlement with the customer resulting in a concession of
approximately $584,000. Such concession has been classified as part of the
foreign currency devaluation costs in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations for the year ended December 31, 1999.

(8)     SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND LONG-TERM DEBT

SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

        The Company has a revolving credit facility with one bank totaling
$2,000,000. The facility is secured by the Company's certificates of deposit in
the same amount with the bank. Borrowings are due on demand and accrue interest
at .75% over the certificates of deposit rate. At December 31, 1999 and 1998,
the outstanding balances under this credit facility were $2,000,000 and
$1,600,000, respectively.

        At December 31, 1998, the Company had borrowings of $9,050,000 under a
$10,000,000 line of credit. Due to the losses incurred in 1998 and thereafter,
the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants of the loan agreement
and the bank sought repayment of all borrowings. Through cash becoming available
from the sale of stock in DTPI, the partial repayment of a note receivable from
DTPI (see note 4) and the refinancing of the Company's corporate headquarters,
the Company made agreed paydowns of these borrowings during 1999 and fully
repaid all outstanding balances on December 31, 1999.

LONG-TERM DEBT

        In connection with the purchase of the Company's headquarters on July
28, 1994, the Company entered into a purchase money promissory mortgage note
("Mortgage Note") in the amount of $4,320,000. In October 1999,

the Company refinanced its corporate headquarters through a deed of trust for
$7,000,000, thereby paying off the existing mortgage note for $4,061,000 and
generating cash of $2,939,000. The deed of trust for $7,000,000 is secured by
the Company's land, building and fixtures, accrues interest at 7% per annum, and
requires monthly principal and interest payments of $46,571. The deed of trust
is being amortized over a 30-year period and matures in November 2014, at which
time all remaining principal and accrued interest is due.

        Long-term debt consists of the following:

(9)     EQUITY INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES

STM EQUITY INVESTMENT IN DTPI

        STM incorporated DTPI in 1996. In March 1998, the Company invested $15
million in DTPI, (comprising $5 million for 1,000,000 shares of Series B
Preferred Stock, and a $10 million loan) and entered into a Product Supply
Agreement with DTPI. The loan was repayable out of the proceeds of future DTPI
financings. Through June 17, 1999, STM consolidated the results of DTPI.

        Effective June 17, 1999, STM deconsolidated the results of DTPI (see
note 4). Due to STM's equity investment being zero, STM having no funding
obligations to DTPI, nor STM guaranteeing any obligations of DTPI, in accordance
with APB18, STM has not accrued any losses of DTPI since June 17, 1999, and will
only apply the equity method of accounting for DTPI at such time that DTPI is
profitable and losses not previously recognized are fully recovered (see note
20).

DTPI EQUITY INVESTMENT IN ALTAIR

        In connection with the award of a contract for the provision of rural
telephony services in Venezuela, in May 1998, DTPI formed Altair S.A.
("Altair"), a joint venture with Compania Anonima Nacional Telefonos de
Venezuela (CANTV). Altair is 49% owned by DTPI. In connection with the
deconsolidation of DTPI (see note 4), the Company no longer accounts for DTPI's
investment in Altair from June 17, 1999.

                               STM WIRELESS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)


        At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's equity investment in Altair
was zero and $4,151,000, respectively. The 1998 balance comprised cash of
approximately $625,000, a non-cash contribution of approximately $917,000,
advances of approximately $2,543,000, plus equity in the undistributed earnings
of Altair of approximately $66,000. In 1999, the Company recognized equity
losses of $59,000 for Altair and made additional cash contributions of
$1,102,000 through June 17, 1999 (the date of deconsolidation of DTPI).

(10)    REDEEMABLE MINORITY INTEREST

        In March 1998, the Company completed a $10 million equity offering with
Pequot for 571,429 shares of STM common stock and 1,200,000 shares of Series A
mandatory redeemable preferred stock of DTPI, the Company's then majority-owned
subsidiary.

        The DTPI Series A shares were redeemable at the option of the holder, if
not converted earlier into DTPI common stock, on the fifth anniversary of the
date of issuance, or in the event of an acquisition of the Company where the
Company continued to hold a majority of the voting stock of DTPI and a public
offering of DTPI shares has not been consummated. In the event of such
acquisition, STM had a funding obligation for such redemption amount.

        For 1999 and 1998, the Company accrued dividends of $275,000 and
$450,000, respectively, that are classified as minority interest expense in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations, representing for 1999 the
accretion required for the period January 1, 1999, to June 17, 1999, and for
1998, the accretion required for the period April 1, 1998, to December 31, 1998.

        At December 31, 1998, an amount of $6,355,000 representing proceeds from
the issuance of the mandatory redeemable Series A Preferred Stock in DTPI plus
accrued dividends net of unamortized issuance costs were classified as
redeemable minority interest in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at
such date.

        Effective June 17, 1999, the Company deconsolidated DTPI as a result of
the reduction of STM's ownership of the voting stock in DTPI to approximately
44% (see notes 4 and 9). As STM no longer has majority ownership of the stock of
DTPI, there is no funding obligation for the redeemable preferred stock in the
event of an acquisition of STM. Therefore, the redeemable minority interest has
been excluded from STM's balance sheet coinciding with the deconsolidation of
DTPI.

(11)    STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

PREFERRED STOCK

        The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
The Board of Directors has the authority to issue the preferred stock in one or
more series, and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions
thereof without any further vote by the holders of common stock.

COMMON STOCK

        As set out in the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity for the
year ended December 31, 1998, the Company completed an equity offering of
571,429 shares of STM common stock in a private placement with funds managed by
Pequot Capital Management, Inc. in March of 1998. The offering resulted in net
proceeds of approximately $3,956,000.

        In December 1997, the Company issued 480,000 shares of common stock in
exchange for all the outstanding common stock of TI (see note 3).

STOCK OPTIONS

        In January 1992, the Company adopted the Incentive Stock Option, Non
Qualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan--1992 (the "1992
Plan"). The 1992 Plan was amended by the Board of Directors in 1998 to increase
the number of stock options available for grant by 900,000. The 1992 Plan now
provides for the grant by the Company of options and/or rights to purchase up to
an aggregate of 1,750,000 shares of common stock.

        In October 1994, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the Satellite
Technology Management, Inc. 1994 Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the
"1994 Plan"). The 1994 Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders in July
1995. The 1994 Plan provides for the grant by the Company of options to purchase
up to 250,000 shares of common stock to non-employee members of the Company's
Board of directors who are neither employees nor paid consultants of the
Company.

        Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at
the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company's basic and
diluted net loss and net loss per share would have been adjusted to the
following pro forma amounts:

                                                     1999      1998       1997

             Pro forma............................ $ (1.27)  $  (1.47)  $ (0.40)

        At the date of grant, the weighted average fair value of options granted
were $1,443,000, $2,198,000 and $1,237,000 for 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. This was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model
with the following weighted average assumptions for grants in 1999, 1998 and
1997--risk free interest rate of 5.47%, 5.33% and 6.33%, respectively, an
expected life of five years and an expected volatility rate of 84.2%, 72.6% and
68.3%, respectively, and expected dividend yield of 0%.

        Common stock received through the exercise of non-qualified stock
options or incentive stock options which are sold by the optionee within two
years of grant or one year of exercise result in a tax deduction for the Company
equivalent to the taxable gain recognized by the optionee. For financial
reporting purposes, the tax effect of this

deduction is accounted for as a credit to common stock rather than as a
reduction of income tax expense if such tax benefit is more likely than not to
be realized.

             (1) The Company implemented an option cancellation/regrant program
             for directors, executive officers, and all other employees holding
             stock options with an exercise price per share in excess of the
             market value of the Company's common stock at the time the
             cancellation/regrant occurred. Optionees who accepted the repricing
             agreed that the regranted options would vest ratably over a period
             one year longer than the vesting period of the options cancelled.
             The program was effected on March 20, 1997 and 332,850 options in
             excess of $7.125 per share were cancelled and 332,850 new options
             were granted at an exercise price of $7.125, the fair value on the
             date of grant.

(12)    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

REMEC

        Under a Development, Manufacturing and Product Supply Agreement, dated
April 30,1996 as amended, the Company entered into a three year agreement to
undertake the joint development of two products. The agreement required the
Company to reimburse REMEC for engineering expenses for the development of the
products up to $1,250,000 and to purchase products up to approximately
$18,000,000. STM has title to and ownership of the design of the products and
has exclusive rights to the sale of the products. The three year period
commenced with the production of the first unit, which was in late 1998. Should
the Company fail to purchase the minimum requirement of the products or elects
to terminate the agreement, the Company may be required to pay REMEC up to
$2,475,000. To date, the Company has expensed $1,250,000 for engineering
expenses and has purchased approximately $1,600,000 of product through December
31, 1999.

        Associated with the sale of shares in DTPI to REMEC (see note 4), the
Company agreed to a price adjustment whereby the purchase price of all future
purchases of committed product from REMEC was increased. At December 31, 1999,
the Company had established an accrual of $1,458,000 for such price increases of
which $729,000 is classified as part of accrued liabilities and $729,000 is
classified as long-term liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet at December 31, 1999.

DTPI

        The terms of the product supply agreement as amended between STM and
DTPI (see note 4) requires STM to supply equipment to DTPI at significantly
reduced margins, compared to normal third party customers, or in some instances,
at negative margins.

OTHER VENDORS COMMITMENTS

        Under a Development, Manufacturing and Product Supply Agreement dated
March 27, 1998, the Company entered into a two-year agreement with a vendor to
undertake the joint development of a product. In November 1999, the Company and
the vendor mutually agreed to cancel this contract and there are no purchase
commitments existing at December 31, 1999.

        While management believes that none of its purchase commitments are in
excess of requirements and all purchases will be used to fulfill customer orders
in the normal course of business, there can be no assurance that the Company
will generate any future level of revenues sufficient to satisfy its purchase
commitments.

LEASE COMMITMENTS

        In 1998, the Company relocated it Network Systems Division to Georgia
and entered into a five-year lease commitment for administrative offices,
warehouse and manufacturing facilities.

        In 1999, the Company relocated its operations back to California as part
of its restructuring of it operations (see note 19). The Company and the
landlord agreed to terminate the lease agreement for a termination fee of
approximately $300,000. At December 31, 1999, there are no remaining lease
commitments for this facility. The

termination fee of $300,000 is included as part of restructuring costs of
$1,042,000 in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1999.
        Rent expense for 1999 and 1998 was approximately $280,000 and $102,000,
respectively.
        In May 1999, the Company entered into a lease agreement under which the
Company leases a portion of its headquarters building to a third party. Future
minimum rental income under this lease as of December 31, 1999 are as follows:
$253,000 in 2000; $266,000 in 2001; $279,000 in 2003; and $106,000 in 2004.
Rental income for 1999 was approximately $153,000.

LITIGATION

        The Company is involved as both plaintiff and defendant in various
claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the
opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's liquidity, financial position or
results of operation.

BID BONDS

        At December 31, 1999, the Company was contingently liable for standby
letters of credit for $225,000 for bid bonds issued in connection with customer
tender documents.

        The components of loss from operations before income taxes, equity
income and minority interest are as follows:

        Cumulative temporary differences which give rise to deferred tax assets

        The valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets was
increased by $3,474,000 in 1999 due to continuing losses over the last three
years. The Company has determined that it is not more likely than not that
deferred tax assets will be realizable.

     At December 31, 1999, the Company had available federal net operating
losses of approximately $4,100,000 which expire in 2012 through 2019, state net
operating losses of approximately $2,000,000 which expire in 2004, federal
research and development credits of approximately $600,000 which expire in 2000
through 2014 and alternative minimum tax credits of approximately $192,000 that
are carried forward indefinitely.

        Included in the tax provision for 1998 was a reserve for $1,000,000 for
certain tax exposures that have been assessed in Brazil. To date, the Company
has responded to the assessment by the Brazilian tax authorities and intends to
continue to vigorously challenge the tax assessments. Payments of $208,000 were
made in 1999, although none of the tax claims have been finalized to date.

        The Company has not provided for U.S. Federal income and foreign
withholding taxes on its foreign subsidiaries' undistributed earnings as of
December 31, 1999, because such earnings are intended to be reinvested
indefinitely. If these earnings are distributed in the future, foreign tax
credits would become available under U.S. law to reduce the effect on the
Company's overall tax liability.

(14)    BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION AND SALES TO PRINCIPAL CUSTOMERS

        In 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of
an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131").

        The Company operates in one principal industry segment: the design,
manufacture and provision of wireless-based satellite communications
infrastructure and terminal user products.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)


        The Company generates a substantial amount of its revenues from
individually significant orders, primarily on an international basis to both
developed and developing countries. This can give rise to a concentration of
revenues and credit risks to individual customers and in geographic regions.

        While in an individual year a customer can represent a significant
proportion of the revenues for that year, the Company does not generate a
significant level of on-going repeat revenues from any individual customer. The
Company's revenues, in general, in any given year represent new projects, to new
or existing customers in new or existing geographic regions.

        The Company has generated approximately 44%, 50%, and 14% of its revenue
in Latin and South America in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, 25%, 21% and 6%
of its revenues in Africa and the Middle East in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, and 20%, 17% and 68% of its revenue in Asia in 1999, 1998 and
1997, respectively. In 1999, the Company had two customers, one in Latin America
and one in Africa, which represented approximately 25% and 16% of the Company's
consolidated revenues for 1999, respectively. In 1998, the Company had two
customers, one in Latin American and one in Asia, which represented
approximately 23% and 10% of the Company's consolidated revenues for 1998,
respectively. In addition, the Company generated approximately 3%, 2% and 59% of
revenues from one Asian customer in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
deterioration of the Asian economies is negatively impacting the level of
revenues that the Company is earning from this customer.

LATIN AND SOUTH AMERICA

        Sales in Latin and South America in 1999 were to 12 customers. There
were significant sales to one customer for approximately $5,600,000. At December
31, 1999, the accounts receivable balance from this customer was approximately
$1,400,000.

AFRICA & MIDDLE EAST

        Sales in Africa and the Middle East were to 7 customers, one of which
represented revenue of approximately $3,600,000 at December 31, 1999. At
December 31, 1999, the account receivable balance from this customer was
approximately $2,300,000.

        The Company sells its products and services internationally. To assure
collection, the Company evaluates the credit risk associated with each customer
and will require either letters of credit or similar guarantees, substantial
up-front deposits or when acceptable, may extend credit on an open account
basis.

        In 1998, the Company established approximately $1,488,000 in accounts
receivable allowances, primarily for customer concessions and allowances that
were estimated to be required. The majority of such balances have been written
off by December 31, 1999. The Company reduced its accounts receivable reserves
by $136,000 in 1999.

(15)    EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

        Effective September 1991, the Company adopted a defined contribution
401(k) savings and investment plan. The Company's contributions to the plan are
determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors. During 1997, the Company
made contributions of $7,000 to the Plan.

        In 1998, coinciding with the merger of the TI plan into the Company's
plan, the Board of Directors approved a matching contribution equal to the
lesser of, with respect to each participant (a) one-half of the amount
contributed by such participant to the plan, (b) $1,600 or (c) 1% of the
participants salary to be paid on an annual basis. Amounts of approximately
$30,000 and $70,000 were expensed in 1999 and 1998, respectively, for the
Company's matching contributions.

</TABLE>

        The computation of diluted loss per share for 1999, 1998 and 1997
excluded the effect of incremental common shares attributable to the exercise of
outstanding common stock options (see note 11) because their effect would be
anti-dilutive.

(17)    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

DTPI, INC.

        The Company's consolidated results include the results of DTPI through
June 17, 1999 (see note 4).

        TRANSACTIONS PRIOR TO JUNE 17, 1999

        Under the terms of its investment in DTPI (see notes 4 and 10), Pequot
and DTPI entered into a consulting agreement for $100,000 on an annual basis.
Accordingly, the Company recognized an expense to Pequot of approximately
$50,000 and $75,000 for 1999 (through June 17, 1999) and 1998, respectively.

        DTPI supplies equipment to its 49% owned joint venture, Altair, S.A.
(see note 9). Sales to Altair in 1999 (through June 17, 1999) and 1998 were
approximately $1,450,000 and $7,250,000, respectively, of which approximately
$740,000 and $3,600,000 were recognized as revenue due to DTPI's investment in
Altair being accounted for under the equity method. DTPI also advanced cash to
Altair to fund its capital expenditures and operating expenses and earned
interest of 13% on all cash advances.

        Interest income earned on advances to Altair of approximately $128,000
and $56,000 were recognized in 1999 and 1998, respectively.

        At December 31, 1998, the accounts receivable balance due from Altair
was approximately $4,400,000.

        TRANSACTIONS SUBSEQUENT TO JUNE 17, 1999

        Subsequent to deconsolidation of DTPI, STM had certain related party
transactions with DTPI.

        STM supplied equipment for approximately $320,000 and recognized revenue
of approximately $180,000, representing 56% of the value of equipment supplied
due to STM continuing to own 44% of DTPI. This equipment was supplied under the
terms of a product supply agreement between STM and DTPI, as amended. Associated
with the sale of the shares of DTPI by STM on June 17, 1999, STM granted DTPI a
concession of $1,600,000 against future purchases of product by DTPI from STM.
Such concession reduced the value of cash receipts from DTPI subsequent to June
17, 1999, by approximately $150,000.

        The terms of the product supply agreement as amended between STM and
DTPI requires STM to supply equipment to DTPI at significantly reduced margins,
compared to normal third party customers, or in some instances, at negative
margins.

<PAGE>

                               STM WIRELESS, INC.
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)


        STM recognized interest income in 1999 of approximately $412,000 on a
$7,500,000 note receivable from DTPI. The note bears interest at 10% per annum.

        Due to STM providing office accommodation to certain DTPI employees and
DTPI employees participating in STM's employee benefit plan, there were certain
normal course recharges of expenses to DTPI at estimated cost. For the period
subsequent to June 17, 1999, such recharges were approximately $200,000.

OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

        In the normal course of business, the Company contracts with Gulf
Communications International, Inc. ("GCI") to provide installation services for
its products. GCI was formerly 50% owned by, a former officer and director of
the Company. Total purchases by the Company from GCI were approximately
$327,000, $921,000 and $720,000 in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

(18)    1998:  FOURTH QUARTER ADJUSTMENTS

        The results for the fourth quarter of 1998 includes charges of
approximately $7,100,000 which comprised approximately $2,500,000 for inventory
obsolescence associated with an earlier version of the Company's products,
certain items that are considered excess to requirements and reserves
established for certain inventory on long-term loan to customers, approximately
$3,200,000 for taxes comprising the write-off of deferred tax assets due to
uncertainty concerning the realizability of such assets due to continued losses
by the Company and a reserve established for certain tax exposures in Brazil,
reserves established for accounts receivable balances of approximately $900,000
associated with the DTPI's Mexican partner and other STM overdue balances and an
impairment reserve of $500,000 associated with the carrying value of certain
long-term revenue generating assets due to DTPI's Mexican partner experiencing
financial difficulties.

(19)    RESTRUCTURING COSTS

        In recognition of the low overall level of revenues and the foreign
currency losses incurred primarily in the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the
Company implemented cost reduction programs in both Quarter 1, 1999 and Quarter
2, 1999, to improve the operating performance of the business. As a result of
these cost reduction programs, the Company exited its Atlanta facility,
relocated its manufacturing operations back to California and terminated its
Atlanta workforce. Restructuring costs of $1,042,000 were recognized in 1999,
comprising severance obligations of $502,000 for approximately 70 terminated
employees, costs of $190,000 associated with writing-off the assets of the
Company's Brazilian subsidiary and costs of $350,000 associated with exiting the
Atlanta lease commitment, which was excess to requirements. All such expenses
were paid in 1999 and there is no restructuring related accrual balance
remaining at December 31, 1999.

(20)    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)

        On March 28, 2000, DTPI completed a $45 million financing which reduced
STM's ownership to 15% of DTPI, on a fully diluted basis. Coinciding with this
financing, STM received $3,750,000 in cash from DTPI.

(1)     Options to purchase an aggregate of 800,100 shares of Common Stock were
        granted to employees, including the named Executive Officers, during the
        year ended December 31, 1999.
(2)     Options granted have a term of ten years, subject to earlier termination
        on certain events related to termination of employment or service to the
        Company.
(3)     The potential realizable value is calculated based on the term of the
        option at its time of grant (10 years). It is calculated by assuming
        that the stock price appreciates at the indicated annual rate compounded
        annually for the entire term of the option and that the option is
        exercised and sold on the last day of its term for the appreciated stock
        price. No gain to the option holder is possible unless the stock price
        increases over the option term.
(4)     Mr. Dias received stock options on two separate grant dates. Mr. Dias
        received 5,000 stock options at an exercise price of $2.50 per share on

of the Company, at which time, the Company granted Mr. Connors a retirement
package which consists of (a) $100,000 and (b) retention, at the Company's
expense, of medical and health benefits for Mr. Connors and his dependents
through 1999. Mr. Connors also received $25,000 in connection with his services
to the Company as Acting President from March 1999 through September 1999. In
addition, as long as Mr. Connors remains on the Company's Board of Directors, he
will be entitled to the same remuneration as the other outside directors.

             REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE

     The following report is submitted by the Compensation and Stock Option
Committee of the Board of Directors with respect to the executive compensation
policies established by the Compensation and Stock Option Committee and
recommended to the Board of Directors and compensation paid or awarded to
executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

     The Compensation and Stock Option Committee determines the annual salary,
bonus and other benefits, including incentive compensation awards, of the
Company's senior management and recommends new employee benefit plans and
changes to existing plans to the Company's Board of Directors. The Compensation
Committee of the Company's Board of Directors consists of three members. During
the year ended December 31, 1999, Dr. Gambaro, Lawrence D. Lenihan, Jr. and Guy
W. Numann were members of the Compensation Committee until the annual meeting of
the stockholders of the Company in September of 1999. Following the annual
meeting of the stockholders of the Company, the Compensation Committee was
comprised of Dr. Gambaro, Mr. Connors and Mr. Burgio.

COMPENSATION POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES

     In establishing and evaluating the effectiveness of compensation programs
for executive officers, as well as other employees of the Company, the
Compensation and Stock Option Committee is guided by three basic principles:

     o    The Company must offer competitive salaries to be able to attract and
          retain highly-qualified and experienced executives and other
          management personnel.

     o    Annual executive compensation in excess of base salaries should be
          tied to individual and Company performance.

     o    The financial interests of the Company's executive officers should be
          aligned with the financial interest of the stockholders, primarily
          through stock option grants which reward executives for improvements
          in the market performance of the Company's Common Stock.

     SALARIES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PROGRAMS. In order to retain executives and
other key employees, and to be able to attract additional well-qualified
executives when the need arises, the Company strives to offer salaries, and
health care and other employee benefit programs, to its executives and other key
employees that are comparable to those offered to persons with similar skills
and responsibilities by competing businesses in the local geographic area.

     In recommending salaries for executive officers, the Compensation and Stock
Option Committee (i) reviews the historical performance of the executives and
(ii) informally reviews available information, including information published
in secondary sources, regarding prevailing salaries and compensation programs
offered by competing businesses that are comparable to the Company in terms of
size, revenue, financial performance and industry group. Many, though not all,
of these competing businesses, that have securities which are publicly traded,
are included in the S&P Communication--Equipment Manufacturer Index used in the
Stock Performance Graph below. Another factor which is considered in
recommending salaries of executive officers is the cost of living in Southern
California where the Company is headquartered, as such cost generally is higher
than in other parts of the country.

     In order to retain qualified management personnel, the Company has followed
the practice of seeking to promote executives from within the Company whenever
practicable. The Board of Directors believes that this policy enhances employee
morale and provides continuity of management. Typically, modest salary increases
are made in conjunction with such promotions.

     PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION. The Board of Directors believes that the
motivation of executives and key employees increases as the market value of the
Company's Common Stock increases. Nevertheless, the Company provides a merit
bonus in cash or stock options to executives and key employees which is
dependent on the Company's achievements and the direct contributions made by
each executive and other key employees. Accordingly, at the beginning of each
fiscal year, the Company establishes short term and long term plans, and at the
end of the fiscal year, the collective and individual contributions of the
executives to the Company's achievements are evaluated. Cash bonuses are awarded
if the Company achieves or exceeds the earnings goal


                                       56
<PAGE>

established for the fiscal year and are limited, subject to extraordinary
exceptions, to amounts ranging from five percent (5%) to fifty percent (50%) of
an executive's base salary.

     The earnings goal is established on the basis of the annual operating plan
developed by management and approved by the Board of Directors. The annual
operating plan, which is designed to maximize profitability within the
constraints of economic and competitive conditions, some of which are outside
the control of the Company, is developed on the basis of (i) the Company's
performance for the prior fiscal year; (ii) estimates of sales revenue for the
plan year based upon recent market conditions, trends and competition and other
factors which, based on historical experience, or expected to affect the level
of sales that can be achieved; (iii) historical operating costs and cost savings
that management believes can be realized; (iv) competitive conditions faced by
the Company; and (v) additional expenditures beyond prior fiscal years in
expansion or research and development toward growth of the Company's business in
future fiscal years. By taking all of these factors into account, including
market conditions, the earnings goal in the annual operating plan is determined.

     In certain instances, bonuses are awarded not only on the basis of the
Company's overall profitability, but also on the achievement by an executive of
specific objectives within his or her area of responsibility. For example, a
bonus may be awarded for any executive's efforts in achieving greater than
anticipated cost savings, or completing a new product on target.

     As a result of this performance-based merit bonus program, executive
compensation, and the proportion of each executive's total cash compensation
that is represented by incentive or bonus income, may increase in those years in
which the Company's profitability increases.

     STOCK OPTIONS AND EQUITY-BASED PROGRAMS. In order to align the financial
interests of executive officers and other key employees with those of the
stockholders, the Company grants stock options to its executive officers and
other key employees on a periodic basis, taking into account the size and terms
of previous grants of equity-based compensation and stock holdings in
determining awards. Stock option grants, in particular, reward executive
officers and other key employees for performance that results in increases in
the market price of the Company's Common Stock, which directly benefit all
stockholders. Moreover, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee generally
has followed the practice of granting options on terms which provide that the
options become exercisable in cumulative annual installments, generally over a
three to five-year period. The Compensation and Stock Option Committee believes
that this feature of the option grants not only provides an incentive for
executive officers to remain in the employ of the Company, but also makes longer
term growth in share prices important for the executives who receive stock
options.

FISCAL YEAR 1999 COMPENSATION

     The salaries of the Named Executive Officers generally decreased over the
salaries paid in fiscal 1998, primarily as a result of cost cutting measures the
Company took in 1999. Since the Company did not meet the earnings goals
established for the year, no bonus payments were made to any of the Named
Executive Officers for the year ended December 31, 1999 except for Mr.
Youssefmir who received a bonus of $10,000.

     The Company is required to disclose its policy regarding qualifying
executive compensation deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which provides that, for purposes of the
regular income tax and the alternative minimum tax, the otherwise allowable
deduction for compensation paid or accrued with respect to a covered employee of
a public corporation is limited to no more than $1 million per year. It is not
expected that the compensation to be paid to the Company's executive officers
for fiscal 2000 will exceed the $1 million limit per officer. The Company's
Incentive Stock Option, Non-Qualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase
Plan--1992 is structured so that any compensation deemed paid to an executive
officer when he exercises an outstanding option under the plan, with an exercise
price equal to the fair market value of the option shares on the grant date,
will qualify as performance-based compensation that will not be subject to the
$1 million limitation.

ITEM 13--CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

      The Company continues to contract with Gulf Communications International,
Inc. ("GCI") in the normal course of business to provide installation services.
Until June 1998, Jack Acker, the president of the Company's Network Systems
Division from January 1998 to March 1999 and a member of the Company's Board of
Directors from September 1998 to March 1999, served as the Chairman of the Board
of GCI and was a 50% owner of GCI. Total purchases by the Company from GCI were
approximately $327,000, $921,000 and $720,000 in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.

      In December 1997, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
with Telecom International, Inc. ("TI") pursuant to which TI merged with and
into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the
acquisition, the Company issued 480,000 shares of its Common Stock to TI's
former stockholders, including Jack Acker, who received 260,458 shares of the
Company's Common Stock as a result of the acquisition.

      In March 1998, the Company completed a $10 million equity offering of
shares of the Company and Direc-To-Phone International, Inc. (subsequently
renamed SkyOnline, Inc.), the Company's former subsidiary, to two funds managed
by Pequot Capital Management, Inc. Through the transaction, Pequot also acquired
571,429 shares in the Company. In June 1999, Pequot purchased additional
SkyOnline shares from the Company for $2.5 million. Lawrence Lenihan, a
principal of Pequot, was a member of the board of directors of the Company from
September 1998 to March 2000.

      The Company has entered into a product supply agreement with SkyOnline
pursuant to which the Company is required to offer SkyOnline certain product at
the lowest price available to the Company's other customers. Claude Burgio, a
member of the Company's Board of Directors since September 1999, is SkyOnline's
chief executive officer and chairman of the board.
