<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On November&nbsp;30, 2005,
the Compensation Committee (the &#147;Committee&#148;) of the Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;)
of UTStarcom,&nbsp;Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) granted stock options to certain
executive officers of the Company.&#160; The
recipients and the number of shares subject to the options are as follows:&#160; Michael Sophie, Executive Vice President and
Chief Operating Officer, option to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock; and
William Huang, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, option to
purchase 75,000 shares of common stock.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Each option has an
exercise price of $8.29 per share, which equals the closing price of the
Company&#146;s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of grant.&#160; In addition, 1/4 of the shares subject to
each option will vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and 1/36
of the remaining shares subject to each option will vest each month thereafter.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The option grants will be issued
pursuant to a new form of Stock Option Agreement approved for use under the
Company&#146;s 1997 Stock Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;) with respect to stock option grants to
the Company&#146;s directors and executive officers (the &#147;Director and Officer
Option Agreement&#148;).&#160; Forms of Stock Option
Agreements previously approved by the Board will continue to be used under the
Plan in connection with stock option grants to Service Providers (as defined in
the Plan) who are not directors or executive officers of the Company.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the initial terms of
the Plan and forms of Stock Option Agreements previously approved by the Board,
an optionee whose status as a Service Provider (as defined in the Plan) is terminated
is entitled to exercise his or her option, to the extent such option has vested
as of the date of termination, until the earlier of (i)&nbsp;expiration of the
option according to its terms, or (ii)&nbsp;expiration of a period of three (3)&nbsp;months
following termination.&#160; The form of Director
and Officer Stock Option Agreement provides that if the optionee&#146;s status as a
Service Provider (as defined in the Plan) is terminated following a Change of
Control (as defined below), the optionee shall be entitled to exercise his or
her option, to the extent such option has vested as of the date of such termination,
until the earlier of (1)&nbsp;expiration of the option according to its terms,
or (2)&nbsp;expiration of a period of twelve (12) months following the termination
of the optionee&#146;s status as a Service Provider.</font></p>

as amended) is or becomes the &#147;beneficial owner&#148; (as defined in Rule&nbsp;13d-3
under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company
representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented
by the Company&#146;s then outstanding voting securities; or (ii)&nbsp;the date of
the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other
corporation that has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, other
than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of
the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent
(either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities
of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting
power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving
entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or (iii)&nbsp;the
