  <b>Market Dynamics</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Handheld computers have
  evolved over the past several years from simple devices used mainly to hold
  personal information into small portable units with functionality similar to
  desktop PCs. Advances in mobile network access and transfer speeds are enabling
  handheld computer users to access the Internet, send and receive email, access
  corporate data files, and exchange instant messages anywhere and at any time.
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Growth in the mobile workforce
  and increasing reliance on the Internet and email are increasing the demand
  for mobile data communications. Advances in wireless connection technologies,
  particularly Bluetooth and Wireless LAN, are being commercialized to allow handheld
  computers to interact wirelessly with nearby computers and with a wide array
  of electronic appliances, including mobile phones, printers, digital cameras,
  LAN access points, Global Positioning System receivers, automobile communications
  systems, bar code scanners, radio frequency identification tags, home entertainment
  and security systems, public kiosks, public Internet access locations and vending
  machines.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Current market dynamics
  driving adoption of mobile data communications include:<br>
  <br>
  <i>Functionality of today's handheld computers is extensive and improving while
  costs are declining.</i> Unlike early models, most handheld mobile computers
  now offer bright outdoor screens, run popular personal information management
  and business programs, have entertainment and educational software allowing
  their use as music players and electronic book readers, and have standard expansion
  slots to transfer data in and out. Popular desktop programs are available for
  today's handheld computers enabling users to send and receive emails with full
  attachments, view and interact with the Internet with full Internet graphics,
  have direct access to corporate data files (subject to business security arrangements),
  and use instant messaging over mobile networks. At the same time, the price
  and costs of using mobile handheld computing devices have been declining. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Manufacturers are poised
  to aggressively market handheld computers.</i> Handheld manufacturers are positioned
  to more actively market their handheld computers during 2004, which will assist
  in educating the market on the capabilities of handheld computers using our
  connection products. Handheld computers using the Microsoft Windows CE operating
  system are called &quot;Pocket PCs.&quot; Pocket PC manufacturers include Hewlett-Packard,
  Dell, Toshiba and ViewSonic. Manufacturers of industrial versions of Pocket
  PCs include Symbol Technologies, HandHeld Products, Intermec, Casio, Itronix,
  TopCon and Tripod Data Systems. In addition, Palm introduced a new operating
  system in 2003 that supports expansion slots, making Palm handhelds more competitive
  with the Pocket PC platform. Increased competition among manufacturers is expected
  to result in increased availability and greater promotion of handheld computers
  that can be used with our products during 2004 and beyond.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Mobile phone networks
  are being upgraded to provide faster connections at reduced cost.</i> Mobile
  phone service providers are making substantial investments to upgrade their
  networks to support high-speed data transfer applications. The introduction
  of new networking equipment and technologies has substantially increased data
  transfer speeds over regular digital cellular phone networks. Available data
  rates today are at or near the speeds experienced on a desktop computer connected
  over a phone line with a dial-up modem. These higher speeds are expected to
  make mobile data applications more attractive to users and drive demand for
  products to connect mobile computers to cellular phone networks.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>The mobile workforce
  is growing and is increasingly reliant on email and the Internet.</i> The mobile
  workforce in the U.S. has been estimated to exceed 26 million persons, and at
  least double that number on a worldwide basis. Before recent advancements in
  handheld computers and mobile phone networks and the increasing availability
  of public and private Wireless LAN access points, the mobile workforce had been
  unable to effectively stay connected with email, the Internet or corporate data
  except through telephone lines. With the growth in the use of the Internet and
  email for business and personal applications, workers and consumers are increasingly
  dependent on instant access to the Internet and email for managing their business
  and personal lives. Recent improvements in mobile phone and wireless LAN connectivity
  and deployment of handheld computers by corporations to their mobile workforce
  are expected to be major factors driving growth in mobile data applications
  over the next several years.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Growth is Projected
  in Pocket PC Handheld Computers.</i> Growth in Pocket PCs that work with our
  connection and data collection solutions is expected to continue, assisted by
  the availability of lower priced Pocket PC computers in the price range of $199
  to $299 that became available in the fourth quarter of 2002. In addition, the
  productivity benefits from using mobile computing devices for connectivity and
  data collection, combined with an improving economy, are expected to stimulate
  the deployment to and use of mobile devices within enterprise mobile workforces.<br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Marketing Strategy</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We intend to capitalize
  on our relationships with key software and hardware providers, expand the range
  of connection and data collection products we offer, introduce our products
  into new markets by expanding our distribution channels, and encourage device
  manufacturers to build our technology directly into their products.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Capitalize on Strategic
  Partner Relationships.</i> We support and encourage direct endorsements and
  referrals for our products from our strategic partners, including operating
  system providers, device manufacturers, phone carriers, distribution partners,
  and end-user customers. We have a team of employees that manages each strategic
  partner relationship. Each of these employee teams specializes in one or two
  of our product families. We have built close working relationships with a number
  of companies that help us rapidly expand and market our products as new standards,
  technologies and markets emerge. Of particular importance are close working
  relationships with Microsoft and Symbol Technologies. We coordinate our product
  development efforts with Microsoft on an ongoing basis, with the goal of ensuring
  that our current and future products are compatible with new releases of Microsoft's
  operating systems. We also cooperate with Microsoft in scheduling product innovations
  and implementing new features. Symbol Technologies supplies our bar code laser

  Product Range.</i> We offer a wide range of connection products that are used
  with handheld devices, and we encourage our distributors to carry a complete
  range of our products. The goal is for customers to view Socket as a single
  source for their connection needs, instead of having to rely on individual products
  or less complete product offerings of our competitors.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Build Strong Brand Name.</i>
  We are building a brand image of being &quot;The Mobile Connection Company.&quot;
  This image emphasizes quality and standards-based connectivity and data collection
  products that are &quot;Mobility Friendly,&quot; which means products that are
  compact, low power, and easy to use.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Competition and Competitive
  Risks</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The overall market for
  communications and data collection products is both complex and competitive,
  and we expect competition in our market areas to intensify, particularly for
  our network connection products, which compete with similar products that are
  manufactured at a lower cost by Taiwanese and other Asian companies. However,
  our longtime focus on creating connectivity and data collection products for
  mobile devices has resulted in good brand name recognition and reputation. In
  addition, we continue to innovate and intend to be first to market in a number
  of product categories. We also believe that our brand name identifying our products
  as compact, low power, and easy to use, and the breadth of our product offerings,
  will continue to differentiate us relative to our competitors. The competition
  in each of our product families is discussed in more detail below.</font></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p align="center">5</p>
<hr>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2"><a name="cash"></a> <a href="#TAB">(Table
  of Contents)</a></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Network Connection Products
  - Wireless Connections.</i> Our CompactFlash Wireless LAN card faces competition
  in the market today principally from other manufacturers of low power Wireless
  LAN cards including D-Link, Netgear and SanDisk. We expect competition to remain
  intense in the future. We compete based on our brand name, distribution and
  customer support infrastructure, as well as software enhancements, including
  power management capabilities to minimize the power drain on mobile devices.
  We were the first company to add security software (802.1.x) to a WiFi card
  software driver compatible with most corporate networking environments, which
  we made available during the first quarter of 2003 for Pocket PC devices. The
  market for Bluetooth wireless communications technology is expected to be highly
  competitive. A number of companies are currently developing various Bluetooth
  interface chips. CompactFlash Bluetooth cards are being offered by plug-in card
  manufacturers such as Ambicom, Anycom, Belkin, BlueTake, Brainbox, and IO Gear.
  SDIO Bluetooth cards are being offered by Palm and Toshiba. Our Bluetooth CompactFlash
  plug-in card is the only card in the market that fits within a Type 1 CompactFlash
  slot (all competitive products and our SDIO product protrude from the slot),
  and our Bluetooth software, which continues to be improved, provides a functional
  easy-to-use Bluetooth solution. Nonetheless, certain original equipment manufacturers
  of personal computers and handheld computers may make our wireless network connection
  products less significant by incorporating built-in functions, such as Bluetooth
  and WiFi, into their products. We also manufacture a Bluetooth wireless GPS
  receiver which collects and sends satellite positioning signals to a PDA or
  notebook for use with GPS maps and routing software. Similar products are manufactured
  by ALK, Belkin, EMTAC, Hewlett-Packard, Leadtek, Mapopolis, NavMan, Pharos,
  Space Machine, Teletype, and Tom Tom. The primary differences between the GPS
  products are the software features in the routing software, including ease of
  use. Our GPS software has been recognized for its excellence by a major trade
  publication, and we will strive to continue to differentiate our product with
  software features.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Network Connection Products
  - Cable Connections.</i> We are not aware of any major vendor that currently
  offers products that compete directly with our Digital Phone Card products.
  We face indirect competition for our Digital Phone Cards from alternative methods
  of downloading information into a mobile computer from remote locations, such
  as connecting over telephone landlines through a modem, or connecting a mobile
  phone through a cable to a serial port on a notebook computer. The market for
  our Ethernet cards is highly competitive. Manufacturers of low power Ethernet
  cards include Billionton and Trendware. Our modem cards face competition from
  a number of manufacturers. Companies offering CompactFlash modem cards include
  Ambicom, Billionton, Hewlett-Packard, New Media, Pharos, Pretec, Targus and
  Trendware.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Bar Code Scanning Products.</i>
  Our laser bar code scanning products face competition from alternative scanning
  technologies, specifically charge-coupled device (CCD) scanning technology,
  which is less expensive than our technology, and from ruggedized bar code scanning
  devices from Symbol Technologies, Intermec, HandHeld Products, Casio, Itronix
  and others. We also face competition outside of the United States from a product
  similar to our InHand Scan Card from BeInteractive. Our laser scanning products
  are targeted to address specific market segments, such as field sales and service,
  retail store shelf management and pharmaceutical distribution management. We
  produce our laser bar code scanning products under technology licenses from
  Symbol Technologies, which, to date, has not licensed its laser bar code scanning
  technology to potential competitors. Symbol has historically been selective
  in licensing its technology to third parties, and we have no reason to anticipate
  that its practice will change. Nonetheless, the continued availability of our
  licenses from Symbol and the continued absence of other licensees are dependent
  upon future licensing decisions by Symbol Technologies. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Serial Connection Products.</i>
  We have no major direct competition for our peripheral connection cards. We
  compete from time to time with similar products from small manufacturers such
  as Quatech, Silicom, SeaLevel, BlackBox, Advanteck and Brainbox. </font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Embedded Products and
  Services.</i> Competition for our embedded products and services is primarily
  the same competition we face for the applicable plug-in product in one or more
  of our other product families, as plug-in connection cards are an alternative
  to embedded connections. For example, we sell our serial interface chips for
  embedding in third party devices. Interface chips with similar functions and
  features are available from other chip manufacturers. In addition, our early-to-market
  Bluetooth software works well with our Bluetooth modules, providing us a first-to-market
  solution for embedding Bluetooth wireless connections into third party devices.
  However, Asian manufacturers selling primarily hardware, such as Alps, Murata,
  and TaiyoYuden, along with integrators such as Bluesoft and Stonestreet One,
  are able to produce all or part of embedded Bluetooth solutions which may compete
  with our products and services.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Proprietary Technology</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have developed a number
  of technological building blocks that enhance our ability to design new hardware
  and software products, to offer products which run on multiple software and
  hardware platforms, and to manufacture and package products efficiently. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our most important hardware
  building block is the universal bus interface, which is a highly flexible interface
  for PC Cards and CompactFlash cards that enables our products to work with all
  major handheld and notebook computers that have PC Card or CompactFlash slots,
  regardless of their design. We have incorporated our universal bus interface
  into the interface chips used in our connection products cards to control signal
  transmission between these products and the handheld or notebook computer's
  PC Card or CompactFlash slot. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have also developed
  a library of software drivers and control modules that allow our products to
  operate in handheld computers running the Windows Mobile based operating system
  and in notebooks running various Windows operating systems. Since 1999 we have
  applied for 15 patents covering our proprietary technology. As of February 27,
  2004, we have been awarded three U.S. Patents, 6,353,870, 6,559,147, and 6,691,196,
  and UK patent 2,365,182 covering our design for cards combining connectivity
  and removable memory. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have also developed
  a number of software programs that provide unique functions and features for
  our connection and data collection products. For example, our SocketScan software
  enables all of our bar code scanning products to scan a variety of bar codes
  and to route the scanned data to many different types of data files. Our Bluetooth
  software used in conjunction with our Bluetooth hardware provides a completely
  functional Bluetooth solution enabling connections and data transfers between
  Bluetooth-enabled devices.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have registered trademarks
  with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for our name, our logo, and the term
  &quot;Battery Friendly&quot;. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We rely on a combination
  of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, and confidentiality procedures
  to protect our proprietary rights. As part of our confidentiality procedures,
  we generally enter into non-disclosure agreements with our employees, distributors,
  and strategic partners, and limit access to our software, documentation, and
  other proprietary information. Despite these precautions, it may be possible
  for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology
  without authorization, or to develop similar technology independently. In addition,
  we may not be able to effectively protect our intellectual property rights in
  certain foreign countries. From time to time we receive communications from
  third parties asserting that our products infringe, or may infringe, their proprietary
  rights. In connection with any such claims, litigation could be brought against
  us that could result in significant additional expenses or compel us to discontinue

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Personnel</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our future success will
  depend in significant part upon the continued service of certain of our key
  technical and senior management personnel, and our continuing ability to attract,
  assimilate and retain highly qualified technical, managerial and sales and marketing
  personnel. Our total employee headcount as of February 27, 2004 was 68 people.
  Our employees are not represented by a union, and we consider our employee relationships
  to be good.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Sales and Marketing</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">During the year ended December
  31, 2003, 61 percent of our sales were in North America, 22 percent in Europe,
  and 17 percent in Asia and Pacific Rim countries. During the year ended December
  31, 2002, 58 percent of our sales were in North America, 24 percent in Europe
  and 18 percent in Asia. Export sales are subject to the complications of complying
  with laws of various countries and the risk of import/export restrictions and
  tariff regulations.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We market our products
  through a worldwide network of distributors and resellers, as well as through
  original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and value added resellers. We support
  our distributors and resellers by providing education, training and customer
  assistance through our sales, marketing, and technical support staff in the
  U.S and in Europe. As of February 27, 2004, we had 30 people in sales, marketing
  and technical support. Our United States distributor Tech Data Corp. accounted
  for 29 percent, 8 percent and 9 percent of our revenue for 2003, 2002 and 2001,
  respectively. Our United States distributor Ingram Micro, Inc. accounted for
  14 percent, 22 percent and 23 percent of our revenue in 2003, 2002, and 2001,
  respectively. We intend to moderately increase our sales and marketing effort
  during 2003 by adding personnel and increasing promotional activities, particularly
  in support of our distributors.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Consistent with industry
  practice, we provide our distributors with stock balancing and price protection
  rights which permit these distributors to return slow-moving products to us
  for credit, and to receive price adjustments for inventories of our products
  held by the distributors if we lower the price of those products. The immediate
  effect of returns and adjustments on our quarterly operating results is limited
  since we recognize revenues on products shipped to distributors only at the
  time the merchandise is sold by the distributor. To date, we have not experienced
  any significant returns or price protection adjustments.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We rely significantly on
  our OEMs, distributors, and resellers for marketing and distribution of our
  products. Our agreements with OEMs, distributors, and resellers generally are
  nonexclusive and may be terminated on short notice by either party without cause.
  Furthermore, our OEMs, distributors, and resellers are not within our control,
  are not obligated to purchase products from us, and may represent other lines
  of products, including those of our competitors. If any OEMs, distributors,
  and resellers reduce or discontinue efforts to sell our products, our revenues
  and operating results could be materially adversely affected.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">As of February 27, 2004,
  we had thirty persons responsible for our sales and marketing activities.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Manufacturing</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We subcontract the manufacturing
  of substantially all of our products to independent third party contract manufacturers
  who are located in the U.S., China, and Taiwan and who have the equipment, know-how
  and capacity to manufacture products to our specifications. We perform final
  product testing and package our products at our Newark, California facility
  for most of our sales, with the exception of large bulk orders, for which we
  perform final product testing and package our products at the third party contract
  manufacturers' locations. As of February 27, 2004, we had fourteen people employed
  in manufacturing operations including planning, buying, manufacturing engineering,
  quality control, product assembly, and shipping and receiving.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Sole source components
  include our proprietary interface chip that controls the signal transmission
  between many of our products (all plug-in CompactFlash products except our Ethernet,
  Modem, and Wireless LAN cards) and the card slot on the mobile or handheld computer,
  our Ethernet chip, our laser scanning engines, our SDIO plug-in cards and certain
  cable and connector components. Although to date we have generally been able
  to obtain adequate supplies of these components, these components are generally
  purchased on a purchase order basis under standard commercial terms and conditions,
  and we do not have long-term supply contracts for these components. Accordingly,
  the manufacturers could stop providing these components to us at any time. Alternatively,
  although our suppliers are generally large, well-financed organizations, they
  could encounter financial difficulties that interfere with our product supplies.
  In such an event, we could experience a decline in revenues until we establish
  sufficient manufacturing supply through an alternative source. Locating and
  qualifying alternative suppliers, and commencing new manufacturing operations,
  could take a significant period of time, although we believe that we can relocate
  manufacturing or find alternative suppliers for sole sourced components should
  it become necessary. We generally stock higher inventory quantities of sole
  sourced components as safety stocks to mitigate the risk of supply disruption.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Research and Development</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Since our inception, we
  have made substantial investments in research and development. We believe that
  our future performance will depend in large part on our ability to develop significant
  enhancements to our existing connection products and to develop successful new
  products for emerging and existing markets. In particular, we believe that the
  following initiatives are important for maintaining our competitive position:</font></p>
<ul>
  <li><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Continuing development
    of our Bluetooth wireless connection products </font></li>

  statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and

  associated with forecasting future revenues, costs and expenses. You are cautioned
  not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only
  as of the date of this report. Our actual results may differ materially from
  the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><br>
  <b>Critical Accounting Policies</b> </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our significant accounting
  policies are described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements for
  the year ended December 31, 2003. The application of these policies requires
  us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets,
  liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
  and liabilities. We base our estimates on a combination of historical experience
  and reasonable judgment applied to other facts. Actual results may differ from
  these estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
  In addition, the use of different assumptions or judgments may result in different
  estimates. We believe our critical accounting policies that are subject to these
  estimates are: Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable Reserves, Inventory
  Valuation, and Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Revenue Recognition
  and Accounts Receivable Reserves</i></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We defer revenue recognition
  on products sold to distributors until our distributors sell the products to
  their customers because our distributors generally have rights to return products
  to us for stock rotation, stock reduction, or replacement of defective product.
  The amount of deferred revenue net of related cost of revenue is classified
  as deferred revenue on our balance sheet. We use inventory reports received
  from our distributors at the end of each reporting period to determine the extent
  of inventory at the distributor, and thus, the amount of revenue to defer. Stock
  rotation and stock reduction from our distributors generally results in a balance
  sheet adjustment to our deferred revenue and does not impact our revenue or
  cost of revenue. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We generally recognize
  revenues on sales to customers other than distributors upon shipment provided
  that persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the price is fixed and
  determinable, title has transferred, collection of resulting receivables is
  reasonably assured, there are no customer acceptance requirements, and there
  are no remaining significant obligations. Most of our customers other than distributors
  do not have rights of return except under warranty. </font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2"><a name="cash"></a> <a href="#TAB">(Table
  of Contents)</a></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We also earn revenues from
  services performed in connection with consulting arrangements. For those contracts
  that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria the we recognizes revenues
  as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance occurs. In some instances
  the acceptance criteria in the contract requires acceptance after all services
  are complete and all other elements have been delivered. Revenue recognition
  is deferred until those requirements are met.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We also estimate the amount
  of uncollectible receivables at the end of each reporting period based on the
  aging of the receivable balance, historical trends, and communications with
  our customers. If actual bad debts are significantly different from our estimates
  our operating results will be affected.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Inventory Valuation</i></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our inventories primarily
  consist of component parts used to assemble our connection card products after
  we receive orders from our customers. We purchase the component parts required
  by our engineering bill of materials. The timing and quantity of our purchases
  are based on order forecasts, the lead time requirements of our vendors, and
  on economic order quantities. At the end of each reporting period, we compare
  our inventory on hand to our forecasted requirements for the next nine month
  period, and we write-off the cost of any inventory that is surplus, less any
  amounts that we believe we can recover from disposal of goods that we specifically
  believe will be saleable past a nine month horizon. Our sales forecasts are
  based upon historical trends, communications from customers, and marketing data
  regarding market trends and dynamics, which we discuss in Item 1, Business.
  Surpluses can also be created by changes to our engineering bill of materials.
  Changes in the amounts we record for surplus or obsolete inventory are included
  in cost of revenue. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Goodwill and Other Intangible
  Assets</i></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our acquisition of the
  CompactFlash Bluetooth card business, including a product line and technology
  license, from Nokia Corporation in March 2002 and our acquisition of 3rd Rail
  Engineering in October 2000 added goodwill and intangible assets to our balance
  sheet. We allocated the purchase price based on an analysis of the fair market
  value of the assets we acquired. Beginning with the first quarter of 2002, in
  accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, &quot;Goodwill
  and Other Intangible Assets,&quot; we ceased amortizing goodwill, and began
  to periodically evaluate whether the value of the goodwill was impaired, at
  which time any impaired balances would be written down. We periodically evaluate
  intangible and other long lived assets for potential impairment indicators.
  Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on
  legal factors, market conditions and operational performance of our acquired
  businesses. In addition, we also review the market capitalization of the Company
  in conjunction with our analysis of goodwill impairment. As of December 31,
  2003, in our judgment, there is no impairment of goodwill or intangible assets.
  Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and
  that goodwill and intangible assets associated with our acquired businesses
  are impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact
  on our financial condition and results of operations.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We design, manufacture
  and sell products for connecting handheld and notebook computers to computer
  networks and peripherals. Total revenue in 2003 was $21.6 million, an increase
  of 32% over 2002 revenue of $16.3 million. Revenue in 2002 increased 32% over
  revenue in 2001 of $12.3 million.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our products cover a wide
  range of connection solutions in four product families:</font></p>
<ul>
  <li><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>network connection
    products</i> are connection devices that can be plugged into standard expansion
    slots in handheld and notebook computers or connect to handheld and notebook
    computers over wireless connections. These products allow users to connect
    their devices to the Internet via mobile or wired phone services, or to private
    networks, or to communicate with other electronic devices such as desktop
    computers and printers. Our products offer both wireless and cable connections
    to external devices such as mobile phones and printers and Global Positioning
    System receivers. Wireless connection products include cards using the Bluetooth
    standard for short-range wireless connectivity, and cards for connecting to
    local wireless networks using the Wireless LAN 802.11b (or WiFi) standard.
    Cable connection products include modems for telephone connections, Ethernet
    cards for local area network connections and digital phone cards for wide
    area network connections through mobile phones.</font></li>
  <li><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>bar code scanning
    products</i> plug into or connect wirelessly to handheld or notebook computers
    and turn handheld or notebook computers into portable bar code scanners that
    can be used in various retail and industrial workplaces.</font></li>
  <li><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>serial products</i>
    add connection ports to a notebook or handheld computer that allow users to
    connect these portable computers to standard peripherals designed primarily
    for desktop PCs.</font></li>
  <li><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>embedded products
    and services</i> consist of Bluetooth modules, interface chips, and engineering
    design services to install these products. Our Bluetooth modules allow manufacturers
    of handheld computers and other devices to build wireless connection functions
    into their products. Our interface chips allow manufacturers of wide area
    network cards and other devices to transfer information to and from handheld
    or notebook computers.</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>network connection
  product</i> revenues in 2003 were $8.7 million compared to $6.0 million in 2002
  and $3.4 million in 2001. Our growth in 2003 was due to new products and increasing
  enterprise deployment of Pocket PCs. In the fourth quarter of 2002 we introduced
  our Bluetooth GPS receiver with navigation kit. Revenue growth was $2.0 million
  in 2003 from this new product combined with $1.3 million of revenue growth from
  our modem cards and $0.2 million of revenue growth in our Wireless LAN product
  line from the introduction of our Secure Digital (SDIO) Wireless LAN card in
  the third quarter of 2003. This growth was partially offset by declines of $0.4
  million in our Bluetooth plug-in cards, and $0.2 million in declines in both
  our Ethernet plug-in and Digital Phone card product lines. Revenue growth of
  $3.5 million in 2002 compared to 2001 resulted from sales of new products including
  our Bluetooth CompactFlash plug-in cards, Wireless LAN plug-in cards, and modem
  cards introduced in the later half of 2001, offset by declines of $0.9 million
  primarily in digital phone cards and modest declines in Ethernet plug-in cards.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>bar code scanning
  product</i> revenues in 2003 were $6.7 million compared to revenue of $3.9 million
  in 2002 and $3.1 million in 2001. Revenue growth of $1.4 million for 2003 was
  due to increased sales of our bar code laser scanner system, which is a laser
  gun attached via a cable to a CompactFlash card with PC card adaptor. Revenue
  growth of $1.0 million for 2003 was due to our primary scanning product, the
  In-Hand Scan card, which is a laser scanner incorporated into a CompactFlash
  card that plugs into a Pocket PC, notebook, or other mobile computer to turn
  the computer into a portable laser scanner. Additional revenue growth of $0.8
  million was due to our newest bar code scanning products, the Imager In-Hand
  Scan card and the SDIO In-Hand Scan card, which began shipping to customers
  in the third and fourth quarters of 2003, respectively. The revenue growth in
  2002 was primarily due to one product, the Compact Flash In-Hand Scan card.
  Our scanning products are sold both through general distribution and through
  value added resellers who contract with customers to provide scanning solutions.
  Our products are becoming more widely adopted by the value added reseller community
  for lightweight portable scanning.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>peripheral connection
  product</i> revenues in 2003 were $3.6 million compared to $3.8 million in 2002
  and $4.4 million in 2001. Standard peripheral connection cards are primarily
  sold to connect peripheral devices or other electronic equipment to notebook
  computers. For 2003, sales volumes for both of our standard serial PC Card products
  and our newer CompactFlash card products slightly increased, but were offset
  by declines in custom serial card product sales. For 2002, declines of $0.7
  million in our standard PC Card product revenues were partially offset by increases
  in CompactFlash card revenues.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our <i>embedded products
  and services</i> revenues in both 2003 and 2002 were $2.6 million compared to
  $1.5 million in 2001. Our chip sales included in these totals were $1.2 million
  in 2003 compared to $1.1 million in 2002 and $0.4 million in 2001. Chip sales
  are highly dependent upon engineering design-wins and the timing of third party
  design projects. In 2003 we continued our effort to broaden the customer base.
  We also include embedded Bluetooth modules and plug-in card sales in this category,
  both experiencing slight growth in 2003. Increases in 2003 were offset be declines
  in engineering services, which also declined in 2002 from 2001.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><br>
  <b>Gross Margins</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Gross profit for both 2003
  and 2002 was 50% of revenues compared to gross profit of 53% of revenue in 2001.
  We generally price our products as a markup from our cost, and we offer discount
  pricing for higher volume purchases. Cost reductions on several of our products
  including our Bluetooth modules, our modems, and the introduction of our lower
  cost third generation proprietary ASIC chip in the third quarter of 2003, were
  offset by rebate programs on selected products and reduced overall margins on
  our barcode products due to large volume purchases. The moderate declines in
  gross margin percentages in 2002 compared to 2001 reflect the introduction of
  new products that tend to have a higher initial cost and a lower initial gross
  margin until volumes increase, higher fixed manufacturing costs as we staffed
  for management of growth, and higher volume discount pricing.</font></p>

  <b>Research and Development Expense</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Research and development
  expense in 2003 was $3.4 million, a decrease of 2% from expenses in 2002 of
  $3.5 million. Research and development expense in 2002 was $3.5 million, a decrease
  of 6% over expenses in 2001 of $3.7 million. Decreases in 2003 were primarily
  from lower consulting and professional fees resulting from the completion of
  the development of a new proprietary ASIC chip at the end of the first quarter
  of 2003, partially offset by higher personnel expenses resulting from reduced
  allocation of costs to projects generating engineering service revenues. Decreases
  in 2002 of $0.3 million were due to reduced expenditures on developed software
  and outside services, and $0.2 million in lower personnel costs and travel,
  partially offset by increases of $0.2 million in engineering consulting services
  and $0.1 million from patent development and other expenses.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Sales and Marketing
  Expense</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Sales and marketing expense
  in 2003 was $5.2 million, an increase of 6% compared to sales and marketing
  expense in 2002 of $4.9 million. Sales and marketing expense in 2002 was $4.9
  million, a decrease of 5% compared to sales and marketing expense in 2001 of
  $5.1 million. Increases in 2003 of $0.4 million were due primarily to increased
  staffing of sales and marketing personal as we staffed for growth, and increases
  in outside sales and marketing services, partially offset by reductions in advertising
  and promotional activities. Decreases in 2002 of $0.2 million in advertising
  and promotional activities and $0.2 million in reduced travel were partially
  offset by increases in occupancy costs.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><br>
  <b>General and Administrative Expense</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">General and administrative
  expense in 2003 was $2.9 million, an increase of 35% compared to general and
  administrative expense in 2002 of $2.1 million. General administrative expense
  in 2002 was flat compared to 2001. Increases in 2003 included $0.4 million from
  increased legal and professional fees due primarily to our response to the complaint
  filed by Khyber Technologies Corporation (see Item 3 - Legal Proceedings), and
  $0.3 million from increased investor relations activities. In 2002, increases

  <b>Amortization of Goodwill and Intangibles</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">In March 2002, the Company
  acquired Nokia's CompactFlash Bluetooth Card business from Nokia, including
  a product line and a sole, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license
  to use, make and sell the related product line technology. The total purchase
  price was $2.6 million, of which approximately $1.0 million was attributed to
  intangible technology and licensing. The intangible assets are being amortized
  over their estimated useful lives of one to three years. Amortization charges
  for each of 2003 and 2002 were $0.3 million.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">In October 2000, the Company
  acquired 3rd Rail Engineering, an engineering services firm specializing in
  engineering design and integration services of embedded systems for Windows
  CE and other operating system environments. The acquisition was valued at $11.3
  million, of which approximately $1.1 million was attributed to intellectual
  property. The intellectual property is being amortized over estimated useful
  lives of 3 to 8 years. Amortization charges for 2003 were $0.1 million, compared
  to $0.2 million in 2002, and $0.2 million in 2001.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Amortization of goodwill
  was discontinued commencing in the first quarter of 2002 in accordance with
  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, &quot;Goodwill and Other
  Intangible Assets.&quot; Amortization of goodwill (including assembled workforce)
  in 2001 was $1.5 million, relating solely to the acquisition of 3rd Rail Engineering
  in October 2000. During 2003 goodwill and intangibles were analyzed for impairment
  of value, and no impairment was found.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><br>
  <b>Interest Income and Other and Interest Expense</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Interest income was $23,000
  in 2003, $26,000 in 2002, and $0.2 million in 2001. Interest income reflects
  interest earned on cash balances. Higher cash at year-end 2003 is primarily
  the result of a private placement financing of our Common Stock in the third
  quarter of 2003. Other income of $12,000 in 2003 was the result of net currency
  gains on foreign currency contracts partially offset by a loss on the Euro note
  payable to Nokia.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Interest expense in 2003
  and 2002 is due primarily to interest on the note payable to Nokia in connection
  with our acquisition in March 2002 of its CompactFlash Bluetooth Card business
  and related product line technology. Remaining interest in all three years relates
  to interest on equipment lease financing obligations.<br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Income Taxes</b> </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">There were no provisions
  for federal or state income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002,
  and 2001, as the Company incurred net operating losses in all periods. We have
  established a valuation allowance for the net deferred tax asset. There can
  be no assurance that the deferred tax assets subject to the valuation allowance
  will be realized.</font></p>

  and Accretion of Preferred Stock</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Preferred stock dividends
  in 2003 and 2002 reflect dividends accrued at the rate of 12% per annum on Series
  E redeemable convertible preferred stock issued in October 2002, and dividends
  accrued at the rate of 8% per annum on Series F preferred stock issued in March
  2003. Dividends for Series E were paid in cash for each of the three quarters
  of 2003 until the Series E was fully converted. Dividends for Series F for the
  first, third, and fourth quarters were paid in cash, and for the second quarter
  were paid in Common Stock. Preferred stock accretion was $565,200 in 2003 and
  $82,700 in 2002 arising from the accounting for the redemption of the Series
  E issuance, and a one time accretion charge in the first quarter of 2003 of
  $296,500 reflecting the discount from market after giving effect to an allocation
  to the investor warrants of $296,500 of the proceeds of the Series F issuance.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have experienced significant
  quarterly fluctuations in operating results and we anticipate such fluctuations
  to continue in the future. We generally ship orders as received and therefore
  quarterly revenue and operating results depend on the volume and timing of orders
  received during the quarter, which are difficult to forecast. Historically,
  we have recognized a substantial portion of our revenue in the last month of
  the quarter. Operating results may also fluctuate due to factors such as the
  demand for our products, the size and timing of customer orders, the introduction
  of new products and product enhancements by ourselves or our competitors, product
  mix, timing of software enhancements, changes in the level of operating expenses,
  and competitive conditions in the industry. Because our staffing and other operating
  expenses are based on anticipated revenue, a substantial portion of which is
  not typically generated until the end of each quarter, delays in the receipt
  of orders can cause significant variations in operating results from quarter
  to quarter.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><br>
  <b>Liquidity and Capital Resources</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have historically financed
  our operations through the sale of equity securities, equipment financing, and
  revolving bank lines of credit. Since our inception we have raised approximately
  $50 million in equity capital. We have incurred significant quarterly and annual
  operating losses in every fiscal period since our inception, and we may continue
  to incur quarterly operating losses through the first quarter of 2004 and possibly
  longer. We have historically needed to raise capital to fund our operating losses.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Cash used in operating
  activities was $0.7 million in 2003 compared to $1.9 million in 2002 and $4.2
  million in 2001. The use of cash resulted from financing our net losses of $1.2
  million in 2003, $3.0 million in 2002, and $6.1 million in 2001. Adjustments
  for non-cash items, including depreciation, amortization, stock option charges,
  amortization of goodwill and intangibles, and fluctuations on forward currency
  forward exchange contracts, totaled $0.9 million in both 2003 and 2002, and
  $2.1 million in 2001. Changes in working capital balances resulted in a use
  of cash in 2003 of $0.4 million, a source of cash in 2002 of $0.2 million and
  a use of cash in 2001 of $0.3 million. Changes in working capital balances during
  2003 reflect increased accounts receivable balances from higher levels of shipments
  in the fourth quarter and lower accounts payable balances due to reductions
  in deferred payments, partially offset by reductions in inventory stock as we
  transitioned to our next generation proprietary ASIC chip and phased out existing
  stock, increases in deferred revenue due to higher levels of shipments in the
  later half of December, and reductions in prepaid expenses. Changes in working
  capital balances during 2002 included increased accounts receivable balances
  from higher levels of shipments in the fourth quarter and increases in inventories
  due primarily to initial stocking of a major retailer, offset by increases in
  accounts payable resulting from deferred payments. Changes in working capital
  balances during 2001 include lower accounts receivable balances from increased
  collections and the timing of shipments earlier in the fourth quarter, a decrease
  in inventories, lower accounts payable balances reflecting lower inventory purchases
  in the fourth quarter, lower accrued expense balances reflecting salary reductions
  and mandatory vacation policies in effect during the fourth quarter, and lower
  deferred revenue balances that reflected inventory shipped into retail channels
  at the end of 2000 that had either been sold or returned by the end of 2001.
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Cash used in investing
  activities was $0.3 million in 2003, $1.3 million in 2002, and $0.2 million
  in 2001. Investing activities in 2003 reflect the cost of furniture, new computer
  equipment, purchased software for new employees, and tooling costs for new products.
  These costs for 2002 and 2001 totaled $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
  Additionally, in March 2002 we used $0.9 million to acquire from Nokia Corporation
  its CompactFlash Bluetooth Card business including a product line and a sole,
  non-exclusive, worldwide license to make, use and sell the related product line
  technology (the balance of acquisition price was paid with a note payable).</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Cash provided by financing
  activities was $4.3 million in 2003, $1.5 million in 2002, and $1.9 million
  in 2001. During 2003 we completed two private placement financings, our Series
  F convertible preferred stock, which provided $1.5 million net of issuance costs,
  and a Common Stock financing, which provided $3.7 million net of issuance costs.
  Additional cash was provided by financing activities in 2003 from the exercise
  of $0.7 million in stock options and warrants, and from gains on the sale of
  foreign exchange contracts of $0.3 million entered into in conjunction with
  the Euro note payable to Nokia. During 2003 we made payments of $1.3 million
  on the note payable to Nokia, $0.3 million in net payments against our bank
  revolving credit line, $0.2 million in redemption payments of our Series E redeemable
  convertible preferred stock, and $0.1 million in combined dividend payments
  on our Series E and Series F preferred stock. At the end of 2003 we drew $1.6
  million in cash against our bank credit line which we repaid in January 2004.
  Net cash provided from using our bank line of credit was $0.6 million in 2002
  and $1.3 million in 2001. During 2002 we completed two private placement financings
  to increase our working capital balances. In March 2002 we issued 0.5 million
  shares of Common Stock and warrants, which provided us with $0.4 million in
  net proceeds after placement fees and legal expenses. In October 2002 we issued
  convertible redeemable preferred stock and warrants, which provided us with
  $0.8 million in net proceeds after issuance costs. Additional proceeds in 2002
  resulted from the exercise of options and warrants. During 2002 we made payments
  of $0.4 million on the note payable to Nokia related to the acquisition of its
  CompactFlash Bluetooth Card business and related product line technology. In
  2001 proceeds of $0.6 million resulted from the exercise of options and warrants
  to acquire 0.9 million shares of Common Stock.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our cash balances at December
  31, 2003 were $6.4 million, including cash of $1.6 million drawn against our
  bank line of credit. In March 2004 we entered into a new credit agreement with
  a bank which expires in March 2006. We have warrants outstanding from our private
  placement financings and outstanding employee stock options that, if exercised,
  would further increase our cash and equity balances. We believe our existing
  cash, plus our ability to reduce costs, and the new bank line will be sufficient
  to meet our funding requirements at least through December 31, 2004. Although
  we do not anticipate the need to raise additional capital during this time to
  fund operations, we may raise additional capital if market conditions are appropriate.
  If we cannot achieve profitability, we will not be able to support our operations
  from positive cash flows, and we would use our existing cash to support operating
  losses and make remaining debt payments to Nokia (final payment due April 2004).
  Should the need arise, we cannot assure you that additional capital will be
  available on acceptable terms, if at all, and any such terms may be dilutive
  to existing stockholders.</font></p>

  ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, we incurred net losses of $1,249,900 and $2,971,800,
  respectively. To obtain profitability, we must accomplish numerous objectives,
  including the development of successful new products. We cannot foresee with
  any certainty whether we will be able to achieve these objectives in the future.
  Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient net revenue
  to achieve ongoing profitability.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We also have debt payment
  obligations to Nokia Corporation under a Business Transfer Agreement that we
  entered into with Nokia in March 2002. These payments are in the amount of approximately
  $126,000, plus accrued interest, per month through April 2004. If we cannot
  achieve profitability, we will not be able to support our operations from positive
  cash flows, and we would use our existing cash to support operating losses and
  make debt payments to Nokia. We do not anticipate the need to raise additional
  capital through 2004 to fund our operations, but should the need arise we cannot
  assure you that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if
  at all, and any such terms may be dilutive to existing stockholders. If we are
  unable to secure the necessary capital, we may need to suspend some or all of
  our current operations.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>We may require additional
  capital in the future, and we cannot assure you that capital will be available
  on reasonable terms, if at all, or on terms that would not cause substantial
  dilution to your stock holdings.</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We have historically needed
  to raise capital to fund our operating losses. We may continue to incur operating
  losses through the first quarter of 2004 and possibly longer. Our forecasts
  are highly dependent on factors beyond our control, including market acceptance
  of our products and sales of handheld computers. If capital requirements vary
  materially from those currently planned, we may require additional capital sooner
  than expected. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available
  in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any sale of a
  substantial number of additional shares will cause dilution to our stockholders'
  investments and could also cause the market price of our Common Stock to fall.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>A significant portion
  of our revenue currently comes from two distributors, and any decrease in revenue
  from these distributors could harm our business.</b> </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">A significant portion of
  our revenue comes from two distributors, Ingram Micro, Inc. and Tech Data Corp.,
  which together represented approximately 43 percent of our worldwide revenue
  in fiscal 2003 and 30 percent of our worldwide revenue in fiscal 2002. We expect
  that a significant portion of our revenue will continue to depend on sales to
  Ingram Micro, Inc. and Tech Data Corp. We do not have long-term commitments
  from Ingram Micro, Inc. or Tech Data Corp. to carry our products, and either
  could choose to stop selling some or all of our products at any time. If we
  lose our relationship with Ingram Micro, Inc. or Tech Data Corp., we could experience
  disruption and delays in marketing our products.</font></p>

  third-party manufacturers. We depend on suppliers to provide additional volumes
  of components, and suppliers might not be able to increase production rapidly
  enough to meet unexpected demand. Even if we were able to procure enough components,
  our third-party manufacturers might not be able to produce enough of our devices
  to meet our customer demand. In addition, rapid increases in production levels
  to meet unanticipated demand could result in higher costs for manufacturing
  and supply of components and other expenses. These higher costs could lower
  our profit margins. Further, if production is increased rapidly, manufacturing
  yields could decline, which may also lower operating results.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">If demand is lower than

  We cannot be sure that any patent issued to us will be sufficient to protect

  intellectual property litigation can be complex, costly, protracted, and highly
  disruptive to business operations by diverting the attention and energies of
  management and key technical personnel. Plaintiffs in intellectual property
  cases often seek injunctive relief, and the measures of damages in intellectual

  we remain competitive. Unanticipated changes in industry standards could render
  our products incompatible with products developed by major hardware manufacturers

  of which are beyond our control, including general economic conditions and the
  outlook of securities analysts and investors on our industry. In addition, the
  stock markets in general, and the markets for high technology stocks in particular,
  have experienced high volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Item 7A. Quantitative
  and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Interest Rate Risk</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our exposure to market
  risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to invested cash. Our cash
  is invested in short-term money market investments backed by U.S. Treasury notes
  and other investments that mature within one year and whose principal is not
  subject to market rate fluctuations. Accordingly, interest rate declines would
  adversely affect our interest income but would not affect the carrying value
  of our cash investments. Based on a sensitivity analysis of our cash investments
  during the quarter ended December 31, 2003, a decline of 1% in interest rates
  would reduce our quarterly interest income by approximately $12,000.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Our bank credit line facilities
  of up to $4.0 million have variable interest rates based upon the lender's index
  rate plus 0.75% for the domestic line (up to $2.5 million) and the index rate
  plus 0.5% for the international line (up to $1.5 million). Accordingly, interest
  rate increases would increase our interest expense on outstanding credit line
  balances. We utilized our credit line facility only at the end of each quarter
  in 2003 and did not subject ourselves to interest rate exposure. Based on a
  sensitivity analysis, an increase of 1% in the interest rate would increase
  our borrowing costs by $10,000 for each $1 million of borrowings, if outstanding
  for the entire year, against our bank credit facility or a maximum of $40,000
  if we utilized our entire credit line.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>Foreign Currency Risk</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">A substantial majority
  of our revenue, expense and purchasing activities are transacted in U.S. dollars.
  However, we allow certain of our European distributors to purchase our products
  in Euros, we pay the expenses of our European subsidiary in Euros, we pay the
  expenses of our Japan subsidiary in Japanese Yen, and we expect to enter into
  selected future purchase commitments with foreign suppliers that may be paid
  in the local currency of the supplier. To date these balances have been small,
  and we have not been subject to significant losses from material foreign currency
  fluctuations. At December 31, 2003, we have payment obligations of approximately
  400,000 Euros as a result of our purchase of Nokia's CompactFlash Bluetooth
  Card business and related product line technology in March 2002. We have purchased
  forward exchange contracts for Euros in order to mitigate our foreign currency
  exposure. Based on a sensitivity analysis of our net assets and subsidiary expenses
  at the beginning, during and at the end of the quarter ended December 31, 2003,
  an adverse change of 10% in exchange rates would result in an increase in our
  net loss for the quarter of approximately $91,000. For 2003 the total adjustment
  for the effects changes in foreign currency on cash balances, collections, payables,
  and derivatives, was a net gain of $92,000. We will continue to monitor and
  assess the risk associated with these exposures and may at some point in the
  future take actions to hedge or mitigate these risks.</font></p>

  of operations, redeemable preferred stock and stockholders' equity, and cash

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We conducted our audits

  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable

  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
  and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing
  the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,

  that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>NOTE 1 - Summary of
  Significant Accounting Policies</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Organization and Business</i></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Socket Communications,
  Inc. (&quot;Socket&quot; or the &quot;Company&quot;) designs, manufactures and
  sells products that connect handheld and notebook computers to the Internet,
  computer networks, and peripherals through both wireless and cable connections.
  The Company also designs, manufactures and sells products designed to collect
  data on handheld and notebook computers. The Company's products are designed
  for use with a broad range of handheld and notebook computers, and employ innovative
  designs that reduce battery power consumption and make them easy to install
  and use. The Company's products have been designed specifically for handheld
  computers and other battery-powered devices with standard expansion slots for
  plug-in cards. The expansion slots the Company supports include CompactFlash,
  PC Card, and Secure Digital (SDIO). The Company has also developed standalone
  network connection and data collection products that connect wirelessly to a
  handheld or notebook computer. The Company's products easily integrate hardware,
  software and services into complete mobile connectivity solutions. The Company
  also recognizes revenues from funded engineering services and from the sale
  of interface chips to original equipment manufacturers. The Company is incorporated
  in the state of Delaware.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Principles of Consolidation</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The consolidated financial
  statements include all of the accounts of the Company and those of its wholly
  owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
  been eliminated. The expenses associated with the operations of our foreign
  offices were $1,132,563, $1,018,729, and $647,039, in 2003, 2002, and 2001,
  respectively.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Use of Estimates</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The preparation of financial
  statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
  United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
  the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent
  assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the
  reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual
  results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material
  to the financial statements.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Reclassification of
  Prior Year Balances</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Certain reclassifications
  have been made to prior year's balance sheet and statement of operations to
  conform to the current year presentation. Amounts that were reclassified were
  not material.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Cash Equivalents</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Company considers all
  highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less
  at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2003 and 2002,
  all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents consisted of amounts held in
  demand and money market deposits in banks. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Fair Value of Financial
  Instruments</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The carrying value of the
  Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable,
  debt and foreign exchange contracts approximate fair value due to the relatively
  short period of time to maturity.</font></p>
<p align="center">39</p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2"><a name="cash"></a> <a href="#TAB">(Table

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Derivative Financial
  Instruments</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Company's primary objective
  for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency risks.
  The Company's derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value and
  are included in other current assets, other assets, other accrued liabilities
  or long-term debt depending on the contractual maturity and whether the Company
  has a gain or loss. The Company's accounting policies for these instruments
  are based on whether they meet the Company's criteria for designation as hedging
  transactions, either as cash flow or fair value hedges. A hedge of the exposure
  to variability in the cash flows of an asset or a liability, or of a forecasted
  transaction, is referred to as a cash flow hedge. A hedge of the exposure to
  changes in fair value of an asset or a liability, or of an unrecognized firm
  commitment, is referred to as a fair value hedge. The criteria for designating
  a derivative as a hedge include the instrument's effectiveness in risk reduction
  and, in most cases, a one-to-one matching of the derivative instrument to its
  underlying transaction. Gains and losses on derivatives that are not designated
  as hedges for accounting purposes are recognized currently in earnings.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Accounts Receivable</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Company estimates the
  amount of uncollectible accounts receivable at the end of each reporting period
  based on the aging of the receivable balance, current and historical customer
  trends, and communications with its customers. Amounts are written off only
  after considerable collection efforts have been made and the amounts are determined
  to be uncollectible. The following describes activity in the allowance for doubtful
  accounts for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001:</font></p>

  <i>Inventories</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Inventories consist principally
  of raw materials and sub-assemblies stated at the lower of standard cost, which
  approximates actual costs (first-in, first-out method), or market. Market is
  defined as replacement cost, but not in excess of estimated net realizable value
  or less than estimated net realizable value less a normal margin. At the end
  of each reporting period, the Company compares its inventory on hand to its
  forecasted requirements for the next nine month period and the Company writes-off
  the cost of any inventory that is surplus, less any amounts that the Company
  believes it can recover from the disposal of goods that it specifically believes
  will be saleable past a nine month horizon. The Company's sales forecasts are
  based upon historical trends, communications from customers, and marketing data
  regarding market trends and dynamics. Changes in the amounts recorded for surplus
  or obsolete inventory are included in cost of revenue.</font></p>

  <i>Intangible Assets Review</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Acquisition-related intangibles
  include developed technology and licensing agreement, and are amortized on a
  straight-line basis over periods ranging from one to nine years. All identified
  intangible assets are classified within intangible technology, net, on the accompanying
  balance sheet. Identified intangible assets are regularly reviewed to determine
  whether facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful life is
  shorter than originally estimated or the carrying amount of assets may not be
  recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible
  assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with
  the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their
  respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the
  carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.</font></p>
<p align="center">42</p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2"><a name="cash"></a> <a href="#TAB">(Table
  of Contents)</a></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">We periodically evaluate
  goodwill for potential impairment indicators. Our judgments regarding the existence
  of impairment indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and operational
  performance of our acquired businesses. In addition, we also review the market
  capitalization of the Company in conjunction with our analysis of goodwill impairment.
  As of December 31, 2003, in our judgment, there is no impairment of goodwill.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Concentration of Credit
  Risk</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Financial instruments that
  potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk
  consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company
  invests its cash in demand and money market deposit accounts in banks. The Company
  limits the credit exposure to any one financial institution or instrument and
  is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by these institutions, to
  the extent of the amounts recorded on the balance sheet. To date, the Company
  has not experienced losses on these investments. The Company's trade accounts
  receivables are primarily with distributors and original equipment manufacturers.
  The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial
  conditions but the Company generally requires no collateral. Reserves are maintained
  for potential credit losses, and such losses have been within management's expectations.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Concentration of Suppliers</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Several of the Company's
  component parts are produced by a sole or limited number of suppliers. Shortages
  could occur in these essential materials due to an interruption of supply or
  increased demand in the industry. If the Company were unable to procure certain
  of such materials, it would be required to reduce its operations, which could
  have a material adverse effect upon its results.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Revenue Recognition</i><br>
  </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Generally, revenue on sales
  to customers other than distributors is recognized upon shipment provided that
  persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the price is fixed and determinable,
  title has transferred, collection of resulting receivables is reasonably assured,
  there are no customer acceptance requirements and there are no remaining significant
  obligations. Estimated product returns are provided for in accordance with Statement
  of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48, &quot;Revenue Recognition When Right
  of Return Exists.&quot; Revenues to distributors where the right of return exists
  are recognized upon &quot;sell-through&quot; when shipped from the distributor
  to the distributor's customer.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Company also earns
  revenues from services performed in connection with consulting arrangements.
  For those contracts that include contract milestones or acceptance criteria
  the Company recognizes revenue as such milestones are achieved or as such acceptance
  occurs. In some instances the acceptance criteria in the contract requires acceptance
  after all services are complete and all other elements have been delivered.
  Revenue recognition is deferred until those requirements are met.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><i>Research and Development</i></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Research and development
  expenditures are generally charged to operations as incurred. Statement of Financial
  Accounting Standards No. 86, &quot;Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
  to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,&quot; requires the capitalization
  of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological
  feasibility. Based on the Company's product development process, technological
  feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Costs incurred
  by the Company between the completion of the working model and the point at
  which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly,

  for use in valuing employee stock options. The Company's stock option plans
  are accounted for under the intrinsic value recognition and measurement principles
  of APB Opinion No. 25, &quot;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,&quot;
  and related interpretations. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the
  Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock

  <b>NOTE 2 - Note Payable to Nokia</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">On March 16, 2002, the
  Company acquired from Nokia Corporation its CompactFlash (&quot;CF&quot;) Bluetooth&reg;
  Card business including a product line and a sole, non-exclusive, nontransferable,
  worldwide license to make, use and sell the related product line technology.
  The purchase price was three million Euros, of which two million Euros was in
  the form of a note payable to Nokia. In August 2002 and September 2003, payment
  of the balance was revised to monthly installments of 100,000 Euros due each
  month beginning September 11, 2002 with a final installment due on April 11,
  2004. Outstanding balances under the note accrue interest at an annual rate
  of 6% and the accumulated interest is payable at the time of each installment
  payment. Interest charges were $66,495 in 2003 and $102,798 in 2002.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Company is using foreign
  currency forward exchange contracts for Euros in order to mitigate the impact
  of currency fluctuations between the Euro and the U.S. dollar on the future
  payments to Nokia. Due to the change in the payment schedule with Nokia these
  derivatives do not qualify for SFAS 133 hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly,
  the changes in fair value of these derivatives are recorded to earnings. In
  2003 the net of the currency exchange loss on the note payable of $82,060 and
  the gain on the forward exchange contracts of $93,950 was included in interest
  and other income. In 2002 the net of the currency exchange loss on the note
  payable of $280,080 and the gain on the forward exchange contracts of $271,710
  was included in interest expense and other. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the
  Company had forward purchase contracts to buy Euros with a nominal U.S. dollar
  value equivalent to $503,040 and $1,669,710, respectively. The fair value of
  these forward purchase contracts at December 31, 2003 and 2002, was $54,860
  and $271,710, respectively, and such value is included in other current assets
  in the accompanying balance sheet.</font></p>

  Financing</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">On August 5, 2003 and on
  September 12, 2003, the Company sold 1,729,955 and 53,250 shares of Common Stock,
  respectively, in private placement financings at a price of $2.37 per share.
  The second closing was the result of holders of the Company's Series F convertible
  preferred stock exercising their contractual rights to participate in the private
  placement. Total proceeds were $4,226,202 and net proceeds after costs and expenses
  were $3,674,503. In conjunction with the financing, the Company issued five-year
  warrants to the investors to acquire an additional 534,962 shares of common
  stock at $2.73 per share, and issued a five-year warrant to the placement agent
  to acquire 172,996 shares of common stock at $2.73 per share. Using a Black-Scholes
  valuation formula with the following assumptions: 0.0% dividend yield rate,
  3.43% risk free interest rate, $2.90 fair value of common stock, $2.73 exercise
  price, a life of five years, and a volatility of 1.372, $1,036,644 of the proceeds
  were attributed to the warrants issued to investors, and the warrants issued
  to the placement agent were valued at $446,330 which was included in the cost
  of the financing.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">On March 28, 2002, the

  of the proceeds were attributed to the warrants issued to investors, and the
  warrants issued to the placement agent were valued at $37,793. Two directors
  of the Company invested an aggregate of $130,000 in cash in this financing.</font></p>

  <b>NOTE 4 - Series E Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">On October 3, 2002, the
  Company sold 100,000 shares of Series E redeemable convertible preferred stock
  in a private placement financing at a price of $10.00 per share, for total proceeds
  of $1.0 million. The sale included issuance to the investor of a five-year warrant
  to acquire 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $0.957
  per share. The preferred stock was to be either converted into common stock
  or redeemed for cash in fifteen equal monthly installments commencing January
  31, 2003. Conversion could be accelerated at the option of the holder. Each
  share of preferred stock was convertible into approximately 11.5 shares of common
  stock (a conversion price of $0.87 per common share) if the market price of
  the Company's common stock at the time of conversion was 125% (approximately
  $1.09 per share) or more of the conversion price. The preferred stock carried
  a cumulative dividend preference of 12% per year payable monthly commencing
  December 31, 2002. </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Dividends were $47,090

  payments on the Series E preferred stock totaling $200,000 during the first
  quarter of 2003. During the second quarter of 2003, the Series E holder elected

  <b>NOTE 5 - Series F Convertible Preferred Stock</b></font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">On March 20, 2003, the
  Company sold 276,269 units at a price of $7.22 per unit (total of $2,000,000
  gross cash proceeds) in a private placement. Each unit consisted of one share
  of the Company's Series F convertible preferred stock (the &quot;Series F Preferred
  Stock&quot;) and a three-year warrant to purchase three shares of the Company's
  common stock. Two directors of the Company invested an aggregate of $115,000
  in the financing. Each share of Series F Preferred Stock is convertible, in
  whole or in part, into 10 shares of common stock at the option of the holder
  at any time for a period of three years following the date of sale with a mandatory
  conversion date three years from date of sale. The Series F Preferred Stock
  is convertible into a total of 2,762,690 shares of common stock at a conversion
  price of $0.722 per share, subject to certain adjustments. An additional 828,807
  shares of common stock are issuable upon exercise of the warrants at an exercise
  price of $0.722 per share. In addition, the Company issued five-year warrants
  to the placement agent to acquire up to 718,300 shares of common stock at $0.722

  the proceeds were attributed to the warrants issued to investors, and the warrants
  issued to the placement agent were valued at $366,333 which was included in
  the cost of the financing. The Company recorded a one-time accretion charge
  of $296,494 in the first quarter of 2003 reflecting the discount from market
  resulting from the allocation of the proceeds to the investor warrants.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">The Series F Preferred
  Stock automatically converts into common stock three years after sale and automatically
  converts earlier in the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company, subject
  to certain conditions. The holders of Series F Preferred Stock have voting rights
  equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion. In the
  event of liquidation, holders of Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to liquidation
  preferences over common stockholders equal to their initial investment plus
  all accrued but unpaid dividends. Dividends accrue at the rate of 8% per annum
  and are payable quarterly in cash or in common stock, at the option of the Company.

<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif"><b>NOTE 15 - Patents and
  Licenses</b> </font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">In the high tech industry,
  it is not unusual for companies to receive notices alleging infringement of
  patents or other intellectual property rights of others. The Company has been,
  and from time-to-time expects to be, notified of claims that it may be infringing
  patents or other intellectual property rights owned by third parties. If it
  appears necessary or desirable, the Company may seek licenses under patents
  that it is alleged to be infringing. Although patent holders commonly offer
  such licenses, licenses may not be offered and the terms of any offered licenses
  may not be acceptable to the Company. The failure to obtain a license under
  a key patent or intellectual property right from a third party for technology
  used by the Company could cause it to incur substantial liabilities and to suspend
  the manufacture of the products utilizing the invention or to attempt to develop
  non-infringing products, any of which could materially and adversely affect
  the Company's business and operating results. Furthermore, there can be no assurance
  that the Company will not become involved in protracted litigation regarding
  its alleged infringement of third party intellectual property rights or litigation
  to assert and protect its patents or other intellectual property rights. Any
  litigation relating to patent infringement or other intellectual property matters
  could result in substantial cost and diversion of the Company's resources that
  could materially and adversely affect the Company's business and operating results.</font></p>

  We have filed our answer to the complaint and dispute the Khyber claims. Both
  parties have filed a motion for summary judgment.</font></p>

    Preferred Stock being converted. In the event of any conversions of the Series
    E Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6, such conversions shall be applied
    to the Monthly Amounts for the Repayment Dates in chronological order. By
    way of example, if the original Stated Value is $1,000,000 and the Holder

<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"><br>
  It is hereby certified that:</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">I. The name of the corporation
  is Socket Communications, Inc. (the &quot;<b>Corporation</b>&quot;), a Delaware
  corporation.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">II. The certificate of
  incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, authorizes the issuance of 3,000,000
  shares of Preferred Stock, $.001 par value per share, and expressly vests in
  the Board of Directors of the Corporation the authority provided therein to
  issue all of said shares in one or more Series and by resolution or resolutions
  to establish the designation and number and to fix the relative rights and preferences
  of each series to be issued.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">III. The Board of Directors
  of the Corporation, pursuant to the authority expressly vested in it, has adopted
  the following resolution creating a class of Series F Preferred Stock:</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">RESOLVED, that a portion
  of the authorized shares of Preferred Stock of the Corporation shall be designated
  as a separate series possessing the rights and preferences set forth below:</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">1. <u>Designation: Number
  of Shares</u>. The designation of said series of Preferred Stock shall be Series
  F Convertible Preferred Stock (the &quot;<b>Series F Preferred Stock</b>&quot;).
  The number of shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall be 276,269. Each share
  of Series F Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $.001 per share. The &quot;<b>Issuance
  Price</b>&quot; of each share of the Series F Preferred Stock shall be the aggregate
  cash purchase price at which such share, along with an accompanying warrant,
  initially to purchase three shares of Common Stock, was first issued and sold
  by the Corporation. The &quot;<b>Original Issue Date</b>&quot; shall mean the
  date on which shares of Series F Preferred Stock are last issued and sold by
  the Corporation.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">2.<u> Ranking</u>. The
  Series F Preferred Stock shall rank (i) prior to the Corporation's common stock,
  par value $.001 per share (&quot;<b>Common Stock</b>&quot;); (ii) prior to the
  Corporation's Series E 12% Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per
  share (&quot;<b>Series E Preferred Stock</b>&quot;); (iii) prior to any class
  or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created; (iv) on a parity
  with any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created
  specifically ranking, by its terms, on parity with the Series F Preferred Stock
  (&quot;<b>Pari Passu Securities</b>&quot;); and (v) junior to any class or series
  of capital stock of the Corporation hereafter created specifically ranking,
  by its terms, senior to the Series F Preferred Stock (&quot;<b>Senior Securities</b>&quot;),
  in each case as to payment of dividends, distribution of assets upon liquidation,
  dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">3. <u>Dividends.</u></font></p>
<p> <font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"> (a) Each holder of outstanding
  shares of Series F Preferred Stock (each, a &quot;<b>Holder</b>,&quot; and collectively,
  the &quot;<b>Holders</b>&quot;) shall be entitled to receive preferential dividends
  in cash out of any funds of the Corporation legally available at the time for
  declaration of dividends before any dividend or other distribution will be paid
  or declared and set apart for payment on any shares of any Common Stock or other
  class or series of junior stock presently authorized or to be authorized (including
  for such purpose, the Common Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock (hereinafter
  collectively referred to as the &quot;Junior Stock&quot;)) at the rate of 8%
  simple interest per annum on the Issuance Price per share of Series F Preferred
  Stock then held by such holder payable quarterly commencing June 30, 2003 and
  on the last business day of each consecutive calendar quarter thereafter; provided,
  however, that dividend payments may, in the sole discretion of the Corporation,
  be made in fully paid and non-assessable registered shares of the Corporation's
  Common Stock at a price valued at the lesser of (i) the average of the closing
  bid price of the Common Stock over the five trading days immediately prior to
  each dividend payment date or (ii) the closing bid price the trading day immediately
  prior to each dividend payment date. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(b) The dividends on the
  Series F Preferred Stock at the rate provided above shall be cumulative so that,
  if at any time full cumulative dividends on all shares of the Series F Preferred
  Stock then outstanding shall not have been paid or declared and set apart for
  payment, or if the full dividend on all such outstanding Series F Preferred
  Stock for the then current dividend period shall not have been paid or declared
  and set apart for payment, the amount of the deficiency shall be paid or declared
  and set apart for payment (but without interest thereon) before any sum shall
  be set apart for or applied by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation
  to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of the Series F Preferred Stock
  or Pari Passu Securities and before any dividend or other distribution shall
  be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any Junior Stock and before
  any sum shall be set aside for or applied to the purchase, redemption or other
  acquisition of Junior Stock.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(c) Dividends on all shares
  of the Series F Preferred Stock shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from
  and after the date of issuance thereof. A dividend period shall be deemed to
  commence on the day following a quarterly dividend payment date herein specified
  and to end on the next succeeding quarterly dividend payment date herein specified.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">4. <u>Liquidation Rights.</u></font></p>
<p> <font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"> (a) Upon the dissolution,
  liquidation or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary,
  the Holders shall be entitled to receive before any payment or distribution
  shall be made on the Junior Stock, out of the assets of the Corporation available
  for distribution to stockholders, the Issuance Price per share of Series F Preferred
  Stock then outstanding and all accrued and unpaid dividends to and including
  the date of payment thereof. Upon the payment in full of all amounts due to
  Holders of the Series F Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock,
  all remaining assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution shall
  be paid to the holders of the Common Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and any
  other series of Preferred Stock entitled thereto (the &quot;<b>Participating
  Preferred Stock</b>&quot;), such distribution to be effected ratably among all
  such holders based on the number of shares of Common Stock that would be held
  if the Participating Preferred Stock were converted into shares of Common Stock.
  If the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the Holders shall
  be insufficient to permit payment in full of the amounts payable as aforesaid
  to the Holders upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, whether voluntary
  or involuntary, then all such assets of the Corporation shall be distributed
  ratably among the Holders.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(b) Neither the purchase
  nor the redemption by the Corporation of shares of any class of stock nor the
  merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into any other corporation
  or corporations nor the sale or transfer by the Corporation of all or any part
  of its assets shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up
  of the Corporation for the purposes of this paragraph 4, except that, in the
  event of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation
  or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation which, as a result of such transaction,
  the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction would hold
  less than 50% of the voting securities of the surviving entity immediately following
  such transaction, the documents effecting such transaction shall provide that
  the Holders shall receive, prior to and in preference to the distribution of
  any cash or securities to the Junior Stock, the Issuance Price per share of
  Series F Preferred Stock then outstanding and all accrued and unpaid dividends
  to and including the date of closing of such transaction. If the aggregate value
  of the cash or securities received in such transaction permits the payment in
  full of all such amounts due to the Holders and any other series of Preferred
  Stock, and such payments are made, then, immediately following such payments,
  all outstanding shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall automatically convert
  into shares of Common Stock in accordance with paragraph 5(b)(i) and all remaining
  cash and securities shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Common
  Stock, Series F Preferred Stock and any other series of Preferred Stock entitled
  thereto. If the aggregate value of the cash or securities received in such transaction
  available for distribution shall be insufficient to permit the payment in full
  of the amounts payable to the Holders, then the documents effecting such transaction
  shall provide that all cash or securities shall be distributed ratably among
  the Holders. The amount deemed available for distribution to the Holders in
  connection with such transaction shall be aggregate cash plus the aggregate
  value of any other property, rights and/or securities which shall be available
  for distribution to the stockholders of the Corporation by the acquiring person,
  firm or other entity. The value of such property, rights or other securities
  shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.
  This provision can be waived by the approval of a majority of the Holders. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">5. <u>Conversion into Common
  Stock</u>. Shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall have the following conversion
  rights and obligations:</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(a) Subject to the further
  provisions of this paragraph 5, each Holder shall have the right at any time
  commencing after the issuance of the Series F Preferred Stock to such Holder
  to convert any or all of such shares into fully paid and non-assessable shares
  of Common Stock of the Corporation pursuant to the calculation provided in paragraph
  5(c) below. All issued or accrued but unpaid dividends may be converted at the
  election of the Holder simultaneously with the conversion of the Series F Preferred
  Stock being converted. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(b) All shares of Series
  F Preferred Stock outstanding shall automatically convert into shares of Common
  Stock as provided in paragraph 5(c) upon the earliest of </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(i) subject to the provisions
  of paragraph 4(b), immediately preceding a sale of all or substantially all
  of the assets of the Corporation or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation
  if as a result of such transaction the holders of Common Stock immediately prior
  to such transaction would hold less than 50% of the voting securities of the
  surviving entity immediately following such merger or consolidation, or </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(ii) the third anniversary
  of the Original Issue Date (the &quot;<b>Mandatory Conversion Date</b>&quot;),
  or </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(iii) upon written notice
  by the Corporation if, following the second anniversary of the Original Issue
  Date, the closing sale price of the Corporation's Common Stock as quoted on
  the Nasdaq Stock Market, (or such other exchange or electronic trading system
  on which the Common Stock is quoted in the future) is $5.00 per share or greater
  for twenty (20) consecutive trading days.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(c) The number of shares
  of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each share of Series F Preferred
  Stock shall equal (i) the sum of (A) the Issuance Price of such share and (B)
  at the Holder's election, accrued and unpaid dividends on such share, divided
  by (ii) a conversion price (the &quot;Conversion Price&quot;), which shall initially
  be equal to 10% of the Issuance Price, and shall be subject to adjustment pursuant
  to paragraph 5(e) below.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(d) The holder of any certificate
  for shares of Series F Preferred Stock desiring to convert any of such shares
  may give notice of its decision to convert the shares into Common Stock by delivering,
  along with the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series F Preferred
  Stock to be converted, an executed and completed notice of conversion (&quot;Notice
  of Conversion&quot;) to the Corporation. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion
  is delivered or telecopied to the Corporation or the Corporation's transfer
  agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a &quot;Conversion
  Date.&quot; A form of Notice of Conversion that may be employed by a Holder
  is annexed hereto as Exhibit A. The Corporation will cause the transfer agent
  to transmit the certificates representing the shares of the Corporation's Common
  Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock (and a certificate
  representing the balance of the Series F Preferred Stock not so converted, if
  requested by the Holder) to the Holder by (i) to the extent permitted by the
  transfer agent for the Common Stock, crediting the account of the Holder's prime
  broker with the Depository Trust Corporation (&quot;DTC&quot;) through its Deposit
  Withdrawal Agent Commission (&quot;DWAC&quot;) system, or (ii) otherwise, by
  delivery to the Holder of a stock certificate representing such shares of Common
  Stock, within three (3) business days after receipt by the Corporation of the
  Notice of Conversion and the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series
  F Preferred Stock to be converted (the &quot;Delivery Date&quot;). The Corporation
  shall deliver to the Holder simultaneously with the aforedescribed Common Stock,
  at the election of the Holder, additional Common Stock representing the conversion,
  at the Conversion Price, of dividends accrued on the Series F Preferred Stock
  being converted.<br>
  <br>
  </font><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"> In the case of the
  exercise of the conversion rights set forth in paragraph 5(a), the conversion
  privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised and the shares of Common Stock
  issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have been issued upon the date
  of receipt by the Corporation of the Notice of Conversion. The person or entity
  entitled to receive Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall, on the
  date such conversion privilege is deemed to have been exercised and thereafter,
  be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such Common Stock and shall
  on the same date cease to be treated for any purpose as the record holder of
  such shares of Series F Preferred Stock so converted.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">Upon the conversion of
  any shares of Series F Preferred Stock, no adjustment or payment shall be made
  with respect to such converted shares on account of any dividend on the Common
  Stock, except that the holder of such converted shares shall be entitled to
  be paid any dividends declared on shares of Common Stock after conversion thereof.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">The Corporation shall not
  be required, in connection with any conversion of Series F Preferred Stock to
  issue a fraction of a share of its Common Stock and shall instead deliver a
  stock certificate representing the next whole number of shares.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(e) The Conversion Price
  determined pursuant to 5(c) shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
  as follows:</font></p>
<p> <font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">In case the Corporation
  shall at any time (A) declare any dividend or distribution on its Common Stock,
  (B) split or subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, (C) combine the outstanding
  Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issue by reclassification
  of its Common Stock any shares or other securities of the Corporation, then
  in each such event the Conversion Price shall be adjusted proportionately so
  that the Holders shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of shares
  or other securities of the Corporation which such holders would have owned or
  have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described
  above had such shares of Series F Preferred Stock been converted immediately
  prior to the happening of such event (or any record date with respect thereto).
  Such adjustment shall be made whenever any of the events listed above shall
  occur. An adjustment made to the Conversion Price pursuant to this paragraph
  5(e) shall become effective immediately after the effective date of the event.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(f) &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp(i)
  In case of any merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation
  (other than a merger in which the Corporation is the surviving or continuing
  corporation and which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, or
  change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), then, unless the right to
  convert shares of Series F Preferred Stock shall have terminated, as part of
  such merger lawful provision shall be made so that the Holders shall thereafter
  have the right to convert each share of Series F Preferred Stock into the kind
  and amount of shares of stock and/or other securities or property receivable
  upon such merger by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which
  such shares of Series F Preferred Stock would have been convertible by the holder
  immediately prior to such consolidation or merger. Such provision shall also
  provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable
  to the adjustments provided for in paragraph (e) of this paragraph 5. The foregoing
  provisions of this paragraph 5(f) shall similarly apply to successive mergers.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(ii) In case of any sale
  or conveyance to another person or entity of the property of the Corporation
  as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, in connection with which shares
  or other securities or cash or other property shall be issuable, distributable,
  payable, or deliverable for outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, unless
  the right to convert such shares shall have terminated, lawful provision shall
  be made so that the Holders shall thereafter have the right to convert each
  share of the Series F Preferred Stock into the kind and amount of shares of
  stock or other securities or property that shall be issuable, distributable,
  payable, or deliverable upon such sale or conveyance with respect to each share
  of Common Stock immediately prior to such conveyance.</font></p>
<p> <font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"><br>
  (g) Whenever the number of shares to be issued upon conversion of the Series
  F Preferred Stock is required to be adjusted as provided in this paragraph 5,
  the Corporation shall forthwith compute the adjusted number of shares to be
  so issued and prepare a certificate setting forth such adjusted conversion amount
  and the facts upon which such adjustment is based, and such certificate shall
  forthwith be filed with the transfer agent for the Series F Preferred Stock
  and the Common Stock; and the Corporation shall mail to each holder of record
  of Series F Preferred Stock notice of such adjusted conversion amount.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(h) In case at any time
  the Corporation shall propose:</font></p>

<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">(i) So long as any shares

  paragraph 5, the Corporation shall at all times reserve from the authorized
  and unissued shares of its Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide
  for such conversion.</font></p>

  which it is convertible, as adjusted from time to time under paragraph 5(e)
  hereof. Fractional votes shall not be permitted and any fractional voting rights
  resulting from the above formula (after aggregating all shares into which shares
  of Series F Preferred Stock held by each Holder could be converted) shall be
