                             MANUFACTURING AGREEMENT

         This Agreement is made and entered into as of the 24th day of March,
2000, by and between RELM COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Florida corporation ("RELM")
and JOHNSON MATTHEY ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLY SERVICES, INC., a Florida corporation
("JMEASI").

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, RELM and JMEASI have executed on even date herewith a
Transaction Agreement providing for various transactions by and between the
Parties, including the execution of this Manufacturing Agreement;

         WHEREAS, RELM and JMEASI desire to work together in a cooperative
manner with open communication to attempt to improve the quality and quantity of
the Parties' businesses; and

         WHEREAS, RELM desires JMEASI to manufacture certain products and
perform certain related services, and JMEASI desires to perform such
manufacturing and related services.

         NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

         1. Manufacturing Services:

                  (a) JMEASI hereby agrees to manufacture for RELM the products
         identified in Exhibit A (the "Products") throughout the term of this
         Agreement. Unless otherwise

<PAGE>

         indicated, JMEASI's services shall include the procurement of raw
         materials for the Products, and the assembly and testing of the
         Products.

                  (b) From time to time during the term of this Agreement,
         JMEASI shall provide reasonable amounts of new product development
         support services to RELM. The scope of and price for such services
         shall be agreed upon by the Parties on a case-by-case basis.

                  (c) During the term of this Agreement, JMEASI shall have a
         right of first negotiation with respect to the provision of any other
         manufacturing services to RELM, such as the manufacture of products
         other than the Products. In furtherance thereof, the Parties shall meet
         from time to time to negotiate in good faith the addition of products
         to Exhibit A.

                  (d) In the event JMEASI has insufficient capacity to
         manufacture such additional products or to meet requirements for
         Products, RELM may solicit and use alternate suppliers for as long as
         such insufficiency remains.

         2. RELM Equipment:

                  (a) RELM shall allow the equipment described in Exhibit B (the
         "RELM Equipment") to remain in JMEASI's manufacturing facility during
         the term of this Agreement, and shall allow JMEASI to use the RELM
         Equipment to manufacture Products. The RELM Equipment shall at all
         times remain the property of RELM. RELM owns the RELM Equipment and it
         is in good repair and good condition, except for ordinary wear and tear
         and the need for normal maintenance.

                  (b) JMEASI shall be responsible for and bear the cost of
         ordinary maintenance of the RELM Equipment. RELM shall be responsible
         for and bear the cost of major repairs and refurbishment of the RELM
         Equipment. If RELM fails to repair or refurbish,

                                       2

<PAGE>

         or replace RELM Equipment within two (2) days of notice of the need for
         such repair, refurbishment or replacement, JMEASI may perform such
         repair, refurbishment or replacement and can either invoice RELM or
         offset against any payments due RELM the cost of such repair,
         refurbishment or replacement.

                  (c) For new products added to Exhibit A, special tooling and
         equipment required to make such products shall be priced and upon a
         proposal accepted by RELM produced by JMEASI and paid for and owned by
         RELM unless otherwise provided by RELM. Maintenance on such tooling and
         equipment will be as per Section 2(b) above. General capital equipment
         required to make such products shall be the responsibility of JMEASI.

         3. Quantity; Forecasts:

                  (a) JMEASI shall have the exclusive right to manufacture all
         of RELM's requirements for the Products during the term of this
         Agreement.

                  (b) RELM's initial forecast of its requirements for each of
         the Products for each of the first twelve(12) months of the term of
         this Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit C (the "Forecast") and
         RELM hereby issues a purchase order for all of the quantities listed in
         each of the first four (4) months of the Forecast. Within fifteen (15)
         days of the beginning of each new calendar month, RELM shall submit to
         JMEASI an updated Forecast. Within five (5) days of receipt, JMEASI
         shall accept such Forecast in whole or in part, and RELM shall issue
         purchase orders for all quantities listed in the Fourth Month of the
         Forecast.

                  (c) To the extent accepted by JMEASI, a Forecast shall be
         binding upon JMEASI and RELM, except that RELM can modify the
         quantities listed in the Forecast by the following percentages:

                                       3

<PAGE>

                           First Month                        0%
                           Second Month                       10%
                           Third Month                        20%
                           Fourth Month                       30%

         As a particular calendar draws nearer through succeeding Forecasts the
         above-noted percentages shall be applied restrictively to RELM, such
         that the percentage corresponding to the calendar month from any
         applicable Forecast that would allow RELM the least deviation shall be
         applied, unless JMEASI otherwise consents in an acceptance of a
         Forecast. For example, if (i) JMEASI accepts a Forecast that provides
         that in the Fourth Month RELM will purchase 100 units of a product, and
         (ii) two months later RELM submits and JMEASI accepts a Forecast that
         provides that in the Second Month RELM will purchase 120 units of the
         product, then one further month later RELM's Forecast for that calendar
         month could not be, and JMEASI would not be obligated to accept a
         Forecast of nor supply, more than 130 units (i.e., 100 + 30, which is
         the maximum upper limit from the Fourth Month Forecast) nor less than
         108 units (i.e., 120 - 12, which is the maximum lower limit from the
         Second Month Forecast).

                  (d) RELM shall accept delivery within seven (7) months on all
         purchase orders issued pursuant to the forecasting procedure contained
         in this Section. To the extent that RELM does not accept delivery
         within such seven (7) month time period, JMEASI may, at its sole
         option, require RELM to pay as liquidated damages the costs of material
         purchased by JMEASI to fill such purchase orders, plus freight and
         handling charges of five percent (5%). If there is a drastic, continued
         reduction in the forecasted quantities of a Product which result in the
         aforementioned failure to accept delivery, such liquidated damages
         amount shall be the cost of material purchased to fill such purchase
         orders plus the cost of an additional four weeks of material purchased,
         plus freight and handling charges of five percent (5%).

                                       4

<PAGE>

                   (e) It is the intent of the Parties that RELM will purchase
         and JMEASI will supply in any month at least the minimum forecasted
         dollar-value of sales of Products pursuant to the forecasting procedure
         contained in this Section (each individually a "Minimum Sale"). If RELM
         becomes aware of information that would lead it to believe that a
         Minimum Sale will not be made in any calendar month, it shall promptly
         meet with JMEASI and attempt in good faith to add products to Exhibit A
         to allow JMEASI to make such Minimum Sale.

                   (f) With all Product schedules, both parties will act
         reasonably to enhance the overall business relationship and the mutual
         success of both parties. Recognizing the possibility of sharp increases
         in demand, JMEASI will act reasonably to attempt to satisfy such
         demand.

         4. Price: (a) The prices for the Products are set forth in Exhibit A.

                   (b) In the event of any change that would have a significant
         negative effect on the profitability of this Agreement for either
         Party, such as an increase in the price of parts or raw materials or a
         significant downward trend in the market price for Products, the
         parties shall renegotiate the prices of the Products in good faith.

                   (c) Both Parties agree to work cooperatively toward
         engineering changes that enable profitable reductions in the cost of
         the Products, to help to continue and enhance the competitiveness of
         the Products in the marketplace and the profitability of the Parties.
         As an example, RELM will help to qualify with its customers changed
         Products that will further this stated goal. The Parties will meet
         regularly, at least once every four months,

                                       5

<PAGE>

         to develop and discuss general cost reduction opportunities. Cost
         reductions that are realized shall be shared equally between the
         Parties.

                  (d) The parties will negotiate in good faith the price of new
         products added to Exhibit A and of Products changed pursuant to an
         engineering change notice.

                  (e) Raw material and parts that are owned by JMEASI to make
         Product and that are obsoleted in any manner, such as by an engineering
         change notice, a removal of a Product from Exhibit A or the failure of
         RELM to continue to order a Product, shall be the responsibility of
         RELM. Within forty-five (45) days of notice from JMEASI of the
         obsolescence of a raw material or part, RELM shall make payment to
         JMEASI in the amount of JMEASI's inventory of the material or part and
         JMEASI shall ship such inventory to RELM. JMEASI will make reasonable
         efforts to return, or otherwise receive credit or partial credit for
         any obsoleted part.

         5. RELM Parts:

                  (a) RELM owns certain parts and raw materials in the
         quantities listed on Exhibit D (the "RELM Parts"). JMEASI hereby
         purchases the RELM Parts at the prices listed in Exhibit D.

                  (b) RELM hereby warrants that the RELM Parts (i)are located at
         and will be left by RELM at RELM's facility at 7505 Technology Drive,
         West Melbourne, Florida, (ii) are necessary for and fit for JMEASI's
         intended use thereof in the manufacture of Products, (iii) are in good
         and usable condition and are free of defects, and (iv) can reasonably
         be anticipated to be used within 90 days after the date hereof to make
         Products pursuant to the Forecast.

                  (c) JMEASI shall inform RELM by written notice within five (5)
         business days of the time that JMEASI actually uses a RELM Part. Within
         30 days

                                       6

<PAGE>

         after notification JMEASI will issue payment to RELM for the RELM Parts
         so used. JMEASI shall have no obligation to pay for defective RELM
         Parts, and shall be entitled to request reimbursement for or offset in
         the amount of any defective RELM Parts for which JMEASI has already
         paid. After 150 days after the date hereof, JMEASI shall be entitled to

relationship between the Parties and enable the frequent identification of
further opportunities for the Parties to increase their business relationship,

their performance under this Agreement, potential opportunities to increase the
value of this Agreement to the Parties, and such other opportunities as may
arise.

                  without the need to show cause upon 180 days written notice to

              b)  The Company may terminate consulting services without notice

                  following, as determined by the Company in its reasonable
                  judgement, shall constitute failure to meet these obligations:

                    (1)  Consultant's failure to perform services defined under
                         the scope of the project.
                    (2)  Any misconduct which is injurious to the business or
                         interests of the Company.
                    (3)  Violation of any federal, state, or local law

              b)  In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to
                  be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, including without
                  limitation the geographic or business scope or duration
                  thereof, this Agreement shall be construed as if such
                  provision had been more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid
                  or unenforceable.

              c)  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements,
                  and understandings, written or oral, relating to the subject
                  matter.

              d)  The failure of either party at any time or times to require
                  performance of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the
                  right at a later time to enforce the same.
