CERTAIN COVENANTS OF STOCKHOLDER

Stockholder hereby covenants and agrees with UTSI as follows:

SECTION 5.01. Restriction On Transfer, Proxies and Non-Interference. Except as contemplated herein, Stockholder hereby agrees, while this Agreement is in effect, not to (a) sell, transfer, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, or limitation on the voting rights of, any of the Voting Shares, (b) grant any proxies or powers of attorney, deposit any Voting Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any Voting Shares, (c) take any action that would cause any representation or warranty of Stockholder contained herein to become untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling Stockholder from performing his obligations under this Agreement or (d) commit or agree to take any of the actions prohibited by this sentence provided, that nothing this Agreement will limit or restrict Stockholder from acting in such Stockholder’s capacity as an officer or director of the Company (it being understood that this Agreement shall apply to Stockholder solely in his capacity as a stockholder of the Company). Any transfer of Voting Shares not permitted hereby shall be null and void. Stockholder agrees that any such prohibited transfer may and should be enjoined. If any involuntary transfer of any of the Voting Shares shall occur (including, but not limited to, a sale by Stockholder’s trustee in any bankruptcy, or a sale to a purchaser at any creditor’s or court sale), the transferee (which term, as used herein, shall include any and all transferees and subsequent transferees of the initial transferee) shall take and hold such Voting Shares subject to all of the restrictions, liabilities and rights under this Agreement, which shall continue in full force and effect; provided, however, that the restriction in this paragraph shall not apply to any sale, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition if, after such action, the remaining Voting Shares constitute 50.5% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company.

SECTION 5.02. Additional Shares. Stockholder hereby agrees, while this Agreement is in effect, to promptly notify UTSI of the number of any new Voting Shares acquired by Stockholder, if any, after the date hereof. Any such shares shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 5.03. Further Assurances. From time to time, at the request of UTSI or Stockholder and without further consideration, Stockholder or UTSI, respectively, shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

STOP TRANSFER ORDER

In furtherance of this Agreement, and concurrently herewith, Stockholder shall authorize the Company or the Company’s counsel to notify the Company’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to the Voting Shares that constitute 50.5% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company. At the request of UTSI, Stockholder shall cause to be provided to UTSI evidence of such stop transfer order.

ARTICLE VII

MISCELLANEOUS

This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise and shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto.

SECTION 7.03. Amendments. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, altered or supplemented, except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by each of Stockholder and UTSI.

SECTION 7.04. Notices.

SECTION 7.05. Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

(b) Each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any Delaware state court or any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action may be heard and determined in such Delaware state or federal court. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The parties hereto further agree, to the extent permitted by law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

(c) To the extent that any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise)

with respect to itself or its property, each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement.

(d) Each party hereto waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party hereto certifies that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications set forth above in this Section.

SECTION 7.06. Remedies. (a) Each of Stockholder and UTSI recognize and acknowledge that a breach by it of any covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement will cause the other party to sustain irreparable injury and damages, for which money damages would not provide an adequate remedy, and therefore each of Stockholder and UTSI agrees that in the event of any such breach by the other, Stockholder or UTSI, as the case may be, shall be entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such covenants and agreements and injunctive and other equitable relief.

(b) In the event of (i) a breach of the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by Stockholder and (ii) a termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement by UTSI pursuant to Section 9.01(e) of the Asset Purchase Agreement, if UTSI elects to not enforce, or is unsuccessful in attempting to enforce, its rights in Section 7.06(a) above and elects to not attempt, or is unsuccessful in attempting, to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, UTSI may elect to seek money damages for such breach by Stockholder. In such circumstances, UTSI and Stockholder hereby acknowledge and agree that the actual damages suffered by UTSI for such breach might be difficult and costly to determine and therefore agree that such damages would, at a minimum, be equal to 3.5% of the Purchase Price set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Minimum Damages Amount”). Stockholder and UTSI further agree that the actual damages suffered by UTSI in such circumstances, as a consequence of such breach by Stockholder, may exceed the Minimum Damages Amount and such amount shall in no way limit the amount of additional damages that UTSI may seek or recover hereunder.

SECTION 7.07. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile and in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

SECTION 7.08. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings used herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.09. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and

enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.
