Re:      2002 Compensation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Infowave continues to strive for success in today's uncertain economic times,
Dwe are  constantly  looking  for ways to meet and exceed  our goals  within our
financial boundaries.

We have recently  reviewed and analyzed our budget  requirements  for 2002. As a
result of this analysis and our current  economic  conditions,  we are requiring
employees to take a decrease in pay  effective  January 1, 2002. We have decided
to take this  approach in order to minimize  the number of layoffs that we might
otherwise have had to make.  This is a decision that has not been taken lightly,
and all other possible avenues of savings have been pursued.

As a result of this  analysis  and our current  economic  conditions,  effective
January 1, 2002, your base pay will be $220,500 and your Infowave Incentive Plan
("IIP")  percentage  will be 15% of your revised base pay. This  represents a 9%
cut in total compensation.

You will  appreciate  that the details of all  components  of your  compensation
package are to be held in strictest confidence.  Confidentiality  concerning all
compensation issues is a condition of your employment with Infowave.

To signify  your  acceptance  of this  change,  please  sign both copies of this
letter,  return one copy to Lisa Price by February 5, 2002,  and retain one copy
for your records.

We  appreciate  the  dedication  and  commitment  you have  put into  Infowave's
success.  With our  financing  in place,  and the strong team of which you are a
member, we are poised to achieve success in the coming months and years. You are
a key individual on our Executive Team, and I look forward to continuing to work
with you.
