Receives Nasdaq Delisting Notification</font></b></p>

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

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">ALAMEDA, Calif., March&nbsp;22, 2006 - UTStarcom,&nbsp;Inc. (Nasdaq:
UTSI), announced today that on March&nbsp;20, 2006, it received a notice from
the staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market indicating that the Company is not in
compliance with Marketplace Rule&nbsp;4310(c)&nbsp;(14) because it has not yet
filed its Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31,
2005 (the &#147;2005 Form&nbsp;10-K&#148;). The notice indicated that due to such
noncompliance, the Company&#146;s common stock will be delisted at the opening of
business on March&nbsp;29, 2006 unless the Company requests a hearing in
accordance with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.</font></p>

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

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company intends to request a hearing before a Nasdaq Listing
Qualifications Panel (the &#147;Panel&#148;) to review the Nasdaq staff&#146;s determination.
The hearing request will stay the delisting of the Company&#146;s common stock
pending the Panel&#146;s decision. There can be no assurance that the Panel will
grant the Company&#146;s request for continued listing.</font></p>

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

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As previously announced, the delay in filing the 2005 Form&nbsp;10-K is
due to the Company needing additional time (i)&nbsp;to enable the Audit
Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company to complete an investigation
with regard to the circumstances surrounding the premature recognition of
revenue on a contract with a customer in India and certain other transactions
and (ii)&nbsp;for management to complete the preparation of its 2005
consolidated financial statements and its assessment as of December&nbsp;31,
2005 of the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting under Section&nbsp;404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company currently anticipates filing the
2005 Form&nbsp;10-K on or about April&nbsp;30, 2006.</font></p>
