      This Eighth Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement (herein, the
"Amendment") is entered into as of May 1, 2009, among CalAmp Corp., a
Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), the lenders party hereto (herein, the
"Lenders"), and Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent for the Lenders
(the "Administrative Agent").

      PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:

      A.    The Borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Borrower, as
guarantors, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders have entered into
that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 26, 2006 (such Credit
Agreement, as the same has been or may be amended, modified or restated from
time to time, hereinafter referred to as the "Credit Agreement").  All
defined terms used herein shall have the same meaning as in the Credit
Agreement unless otherwise defined herein.

      B.    The Borrower has requested that the Lenders waive certain Events
of Default and make certain amendments to the Credit Agreement, and the
Lenders are willing to do so, all in the manner and on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.

      NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

SECTION 1.  WAIVER.

      The Borrower has advised the Lenders that it was not in compliance with
(i) the Minimum EBITDA covenant set forth in Section 8.21 of the Credit
Agreement for the 12-month period ended February 28, 2009 (the "Minimum
EBITDA Default") and (ii) the Minimum Sales of Wireless DataCom Division
covenant set forth in Section 8.21 of the Credit Agreement for the 3-month
periods ended March 28, 2009 and April 25, 2009 (the "Minimum Sales
Default"); each such event of non-compliance constitutes an Event of Default
under Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement (the Minimum EBITDA Default and the
Minimum Sales Default are referred to collectively as the "Existing
Defaults").  The Borrowers have requested that the Lenders waive the Minimum
EBITDA Default for the period ended February 28, 2009 and the Minimum Sales
Default for the periods ended March 28, 2009 and April 25, 2009, and by
signing below, the Lenders agree to waive the Existing Defaults for such
