Item 1. Changes in Control of Registrant.

         On July 1, 1999, SecurFone America, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("SecurFone"), acquired all of the capital stock of IXATA, Inc., a privately
held California corporation ("IXATA"), from the Gluckman Family Trust,
Andreoli Family Trust, Robert A. Steiner and the remaining shareholders of
IXATA (collectively, the "IXATA Shareholders"), for 4,500,000 shares of
newly-issued common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Shares"), of
SecurFone. The IXATA Shareholders are the owners of approximately 41.8 % of
the outstanding Shares. For purposes of Federal securities laws, the above
transaction may be deemed a change in control of SecurFone. The stock
purchase agreement is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is
incorporated herein by reference.

         Concurrently with the closing, SecurFone entered into a voting
agreement (the "Voting Agreement") with certain of its stockholders listed on
the signature page thereof (collectively, the "Stockholders"), effective July
1, 1999, that provides that to the extent that any of the Stockholders is the
legal or beneficial owner of any shares of voting stock of SecurFone, they
will vote those shares (1) in favor of electing to the Board of Directors of
SecurFone, Michael M. Grand, Paul B. Silverman and Andrew H. Kent (so long as
each desires to serve) or their respective replacement appointed by Mr.
Grand; and (2) in favor of electing to the Board of Directors of SecurFone,
Fred Gluckman, Robert A. Steiner and Paul Hatch (so long as each desires to
serve) or their respective replacement appointed by vote or consent of a
majority of the Shares held by the IXATA Shareholders. The Voting Agreement
will terminate on the first to occur of: (1) the mutual written agreement of
all of the parties to terminate the Voting Agreement; (2) the death or
dissolution of the last of certain parties to the Voting Agreement; (3) the
sale of 80% or more of the outstanding capital stock of SecurFone; (4)
certain parties to the Voting Agreement cease to collectively own at least
25% of the outstanding voting stock of SecurFone on a fully diluted basis; or
(5) the fifth anniversary of the Voting Agreement. The Stockholders have
shared power to vote, or to direct the voting of, approximately 84% of the
Shares. This description of the Voting Agreement is not and does not purport
to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Voting
Agreement. The Voting Agreement is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 4.1
and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On July 1, 1999, SecurFone acquired all of the capital stock of

service company providing Internet-based purchasing systems designed to
assist the travel industry in negotiating and administrating automated
preferred lodging programs. IXATA is now being operated as a subsidiary of

                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

         THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT ("Agreement"), dated as of July 1,

("SecurFone"), Montpilier Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("Montpilier"), IXATA, Inc., a California corporation ("IXATA"), and the
undersigned shareholders of IXATA (each a "Seller" and collectively, the
"Sellers").

                                   RECITALS:

         A.       The Sellers are the record and beneficial owners of all of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of IXATA.

         B.       Montpilier is the record and beneficial owner of a
controlling interest in the capital stock of SecurFone.

         C.       Upon the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement,
Sellers wish to sell to SecurFone, and SecurFone wishes to purchase from
Sellers, all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the IXATA for
shares of SecurFone's common stock, $0.01 par value per share ("SecurFone
Stock"), in a tax-free exchange pursuant to Section 368 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations or published rulings
promulgated or issued thereunder (the "Code").

         THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual
covenants, warranties, representations and conditions contained in this
Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

1.       SALE AND PURCHASE OF SHARES

         1.01 SALE AND PURCHASE. Each of the Sellers sells, transfers,
assigns and conveys, free and clear of any and all liens, claims, mortgages,
charges, security interests, encumbrances or similar agreements of any kind
or nature ("Liens"), all of the outstanding shares of IXATA's capital stock,
including in the aggregate 1,292,641 shares of common stock, without par
value (collectively, the "IXATA Stock"), that are owned by each such Seller
to SecurFone, and SecurFone purchases, acquires and accepts from each of the
Sellers all of the IXATA Stock. A listing of the Sellers and the number of
shares of IXATA Stock owned by each Seller is set forth on SCHEDULE 1.01.

         1.02 PURCHASE PRICE. SecurFone pays, and the Sellers accept, as the
purchase price for the IXATA Stock, an aggregate of 4.5 million shares of
SecurFone Stock (collectively, the "Purchase Shares"), to be issued to each

the Purchase Shares shall represent approximately 37% of the issued and
outstanding shares of SecurFone Stock on a fully-diluted basis.

         1.03 TRANSFER TAXES. Each Seller shall pay all stock transfer taxes,
recording fees and other sales, transfer, use, purchase or similar taxes that
are imposed on any party by any governmental authority in any jurisdiction in
connection with the issuance of the Purchase Shares to that Seller.

                                        5


2.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF IXATA AND THE SELLERS

         Except as otherwise disclosed to SecurFone in a letter delivered to
it prior to the execution of this Agreement (the "IXATA Disclosure Letter"),
a copy of which is attached as SCHEDULE 2, IXATA and each Seller jointly and
severally represents and warrants to SecurFone as follows (it being
understood that, as among the Sellers, the liability of each Seller shall be
several and not joint):

         2.01 ORGANIZATION. IXATA is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and
has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority to own, lease and
operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted or
presently proposed to be conducted. IXATA is duly qualified or licensed and
in good standing to do business in each jurisdiction in which the property
owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it
makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except in those
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be
expected to have individually or in the aggregate a material adverse effect
on the business, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial
condition or prospects (a "Material Adverse Effect") of IXATA (an "IXATA
Material Adverse Effect"). IXATA has provided SecurFone with a complete and
accurate copy of IXATA's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, including all
amendments thereto.

         2.02 CAPITALIZATION. The authorized capital stock of IXATA consists
of the following: (i) 20,000,000 shares of common stock ("Common Stock"), and
(ii) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock ("Preferred Stock"). As of the date
of this Agreement, 1,292,641 shares of Common Stock and zero shares of
Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding. All of the issued and outstanding
shares of IXATA Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. Except as set forth in the
preceding sentence, there are no shares of capital stock of IXATA issued or
outstanding or any options, warrants, subscriptions, calls, rights,
convertible securities or other agreements or commitments obligating IXATA to
issue, transfer, sell, redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire any shares of
its capital stock or securities. The promissory notes issued by IXATA on or
about January 26, 1999 in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000 have
heretofore been fully converted into shares of IXATA Stock without further
liability to IXATA.

         2.03 MATERIAL INVESTMENTS. IXATA does not directly or indirectly own
any equity or similar interest in, or any interest convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any equity or similar interest in, any
corporation (including but not limited to any subsidiaries of IXATA),
partnership, joint venture or other business association or entity.

         2.04 AUTHORITY RELATIVE TO THIS AGREEMENT. IXATA has the corporate
power to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations under
this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
IXATA and the consummation by IXATA of the transactions contemplated hereby
have been duly authorized by IXATA's Board of Directors and shareholders and
no other corporate proceedings on the part of IXATA are necessary to
authorize this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. This
Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by IXATA and
constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of IXATA, enforceable
against IXATA in accordance with its terms, subject, as to the enforcement of
remedies, to general equitable principles and to bankruptcy, insolvency and
similar laws.

                                        6


         2.05 CONSENTS AND APPROVALS; NO VIOLATIONS. No filing with, and no
permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any court, tribunal or
Governmental Person is necessary for the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by IXATA or of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by IXATA nor the consummation by IXATA of the transactions contemplated
hereby, nor compliance by IXATA with any of the provisions hereof, will (i)
conflict with or result in any breach of any provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws of IXATA, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or
constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default
under (or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation, vesting,
payment, exercise, acceleration, suspension or revocation), any of the terms,
conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, deed of trust, security
interest, indenture, lease, license, contract, agreement, insurance policy,
plan or other instrument or obligation to which IXATA is a party or by which
any of its properties or assets may be bound or affected, (iii) violate any
order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation applicable to
IXATA or any of its properties or assets, (iv) result in the creation or
imposition of any Lien on any asset of IXATA or (v) cause the suspension,
termination or revocation of any certificates of need, accreditation,
registrations, licenses, permits and other consents or approvals of
Governmental Persons applicable to IXATA, except in the case of clauses (ii),
(iii), (iv) and (v) for violations, breaches, defaults, terminations,
cancellations, accelerations, creations, impositions, suspensions or
revocations which could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in
the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect. "Governmental Person" means
any governmental, quasi-governmental, judicial, public or statutory
instrumentality, authority, agency, bureau, body or entity of the United
States of America or of any state, county, municipality or other political
subdivision of the United States of America.

         2.06 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IXATA has provided to SecurFone unaudited
interim financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 (the "IXATA
Financial Statement Date") and the months ended April 30 and May 31, 1999

material respects) and fairly present in all material respects, in conformity

consistent basis (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto), the
financial position of IXATA as of the respective dates thereof and the
results of operations and changes in financial position for the periods then
ended (subject to normal year-end adjustments).

         2.07 ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES OR EVENTS. Since January 15, 1999
and except as disclosed in the IXATA Financial Statements, IXATA has in all

Adverse Effect; (ii) any amendments or changes in the Articles of
Incorporation or Bylaws of IXATA; (iii) any sale, transfer, assignment,
disposition or license of, or material pledge of or material encumbrance
upon, property (tangible or intangible) of IXATA with a value in excess of
$50,000; (iv) any material change by IXATA in its accounting methods,
principles or practices except as required by any change in GAAP or as a
result of a change in law; (v) any material revaluation by IXATA of any of
its assets, including, without limitation, writing down the value of
inventory or writing off notes or accounts receivable other than in the
ordinary course of business; (vi) any entry into any IXATA Material Agreement
outside the ordinary course of business; (vii) any

                                       7


termination, acceleration, cancellation or modification of any IXATA Material

capital investment in, any loan to or any acquisition of the securities or
assets of any other person; (x) any creation, incurrence, assumption or
guarantee of any indebtedness (including capitalized lease obligations); (xi)

liabilities; (xii) any sale, issuance or other disposition of any of its

stock; (xiv) the making of any loan to, or entry into any transaction with,
any of its directors, officers and employees outside the ordinary course of

         2.08 LITIGATION. There is no suit, action or proceeding, whether at
law or equity, before or by any federal, state or foreign commission, court,
tribunal, board, agency or instrumentality, or before any arbitrator (each,
an "Action"), pending or, to the knowledge of IXATA and any Seller,
threatened against or affecting IXATA, nor is there any judgment, decree,
injunction, rule or order of any court, tribunal, arbitrator or Governmental
Person outstanding against IXATA.

         2.09 ABSENCE OF UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. Except for liabilities or
obligations which are accrued or reserved against in the IXATA Financial
Statements (or reflected in the notes thereto) or which were incurred after
the IXATA Financial Statement Date in the ordinary course of business and
consistent with past practices, IXATA does not have any material liabilities
or obligations (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise).

         2.10 NO DEFAULT. IXATA is not in violation or breach of, or default
under (and no event has occurred which with notice or the lapse of time or

condition or provision of (i) its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, (ii)
any note, bond, mortgage, deed of trust, security interest, indenture,
license, agreement, plan, contract, lease, insurance policy, commitment or
other instrument or obligation to which IXATA is a party or by which it or
any of its properties or assets may be bound or affected, (iii) any order,

any of its properties or assets, or (iv) any license, permit and other
consent or approval of Governmental Persons applicable to IXATA, except in

         2.11     TAXES.

                  (a) IXATA has (i) timely filed (or has had timely filed on its

         any Tax Return.

                  (b) There are no Liens for Taxes upon the assets of IXATA,
         except Liens for Taxes not yet due or being contested in good faith.

         have been proposed or assessed by any Tax Authority against IXATA which

         taxable year commencing on or after December 31, 1994, remuneration
         that would result in a disallowance of any material amount of tax
         deductions under Section 162(m) of the Code. There are no changes in
         the tax accounting methods subject to Section 481(a) of the Code which

marketable title to all real and personal property purported to be owned by
it, free and clear of all Liens except for: (i) any Lien for current Taxes
not yet due and payable; and (ii) Liens that could not reasonably be expected
to have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect and
that otherwise do not adversely effect the value or the use by IXATA of the
property that is the subject of such Liens. IXATA has provided SecurFone with
copies of all real property leases to which IXATA is a party and has provided
to SecurFone a list of all real property owned or leased by IXATA except such
leases or property which individually or in the aggregate are immaterial.
Each lease to which IXATA is a party is in full force and effect and no party

consent by or of any party to any such lease is required in order to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without causing a
breach or violation of or default or increased charges under such lease.

         2.13 COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. IXATA is in compliance with all
applicable laws, except where the failure to be in such compliance could not
reasonably be expected to have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA
Material Adverse Effect.

         2.14     LABOR MATTERS.

                  (a) IXATA is not a party to, or bound by, any collective
         bargaining agreement, contract or other agreement or understanding with
         a labor union or labor organization. There is no unfair labor practice
         or labor arbitration proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of IXATA
         and any Seller, threatened against IXATA relating to its business,
         except for any such proceedings which could not reasonably be expected
         to have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse
         Effect. To the knowledge of IXATA and any Seller, there are no
         organizational efforts with respect to the formation of a collective
         bargaining unit presently being made or threatened involving employees
         of IXATA, nor does any labor union or organization claim to represent
         the employees of IXATA.

                  (b) There is no labor strike, dispute, slow down, work
         stoppage, or lockout actually pending or, to the knowledge of IXATA and
         any Seller, threatened against IXATA.

                  (c) There are no charges or complaints instituted by, or
         before, any Governmental Person pending or, to the knowledge of IXATA
         and any Seller, threatened against IXATA involving any employment or
         labor matter, including, without limitation, any: (i) complaints or
         citations under the Occupational Safety and Health Act or any state or
         local occupational safety act or regulation since December 31, 1994;
         (ii) unfair labor practice charges or complaints with the National
         Labor Relations Board; or (iii) other claims, charges, actions or

         involving IXATA and any employee, any former employee, or any labor
         union or other organization representing or claiming to represent the
         interests of any such employee or former employee. IXATA is and has
         been in compliance with all applicable laws regarding employment and
         employment practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and
         hours and occupational safety and health programs, and IXATA is not
         engaged in any violation of any applicable law related to employment,
         including unfair labor practices or acts of employment discrimination,
         except in each case where the failure to be in compliance could not
         reasonably be expected to have individually or in the aggregate an
         IXATA Material Adverse Effect.

         2.15     EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS; ERISA.

                  (a) With respect to each of the bonus, deferred compensation,
         incentive compensation, stock purchase, stock option, severance or
         termination pay, hospitalization or other medical, life or other
         insurance, supplemental unemployment benefits, profit-sharing, pension,
         or retirement plan, program, agreement or arrangement, and each other
         employee benefit plan or program of IXATA (collectively, the "IXATA
         Plans") in force on or after December 31, 1994, except for
         multi-employer plans as defined in Section 3(37)(A) of the Employee
         Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and any regulations
         or published rulings promulgated or issued thereunder ("ERISA"), IXATA
         has delivered to SecurFone complete and accurate copies of each of the
         following documents: (i) the plan documents of each of the IXATA Plans
         (including all amendments thereto); (ii) the annual

                                       10


         report and actuarial report, if required under ERISA, with respect to
         each of the IXATA Plans that is an "employee benefit plan," as that
         term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA (collectively, the "IXATA
         ERISA Plans"), for the last two years; (iii) the most recent Summary
         Plan Description, together with each Summary of Material Modifications,
         required under ERISA with respect to the IXATA ERISA Plans; (iv) if
         IXATA Plans are funded through a trust or any third party funding
         vehicle, a copy of the trust or other funding agreement (including all
         amendments thereto) and the latest financial statements thereof; and
         (v) the most recent determination letter received from the Internal
         Revenue Service with respect to each IXATA ERISA Plan intended to
         qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code.

                  (b) No liability under Title IV of ERISA has been incurred by
         IXATA or any company that is an affiliate of IXATA under ERISA (an
         "IXATA ERISA Affiliate") since the effective date of ERISA that has not
         been satisfied in full, and no condition exists that presents a
         material risk to IXATA or any IXATA ERISA Affiliate of incurring any
         liability under Title IV (other than liability for premiums due to the
         Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation). To the extent this
         representation applies to Section 4064, Section 4069 or Section 4204 of
         Title IV of ERISA, it is made not only with respect to IXATA ERISA
         Plans but also with respect to any employee benefit plan, program,
         agreement or arrangement subject to Title IV of ERISA to which IXATA or
         any IXATA ERISA Affiliate made, or was required to make, contributions
         during the five-year period ending on the date of this Agreement.

                  (c) With respect to each IXATA ERISA Plan which is subject to
         Title IV of ERISA, the present value of accrued benefits under that
         plan, based upon the actuarial assumptions used for financial reporting
         purposes in the most recent actuarial report prepared by that plan's
         actuary with respect to that plan, did not exceed, as of its latest
         valuation date, the then current value of the assets of that plan
         allocable to those accrued benefits.

                  (d) No IXATA ERISA Plan or any trust established thereunder
         has incurred any "accumulated funding deficiency" (as defined in
         Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code), whether or not
         waived, as of the last day of the most recent fiscal year of each IXATA
         ERISA Plan ended prior to the date of this Agreement, and all
         contributions required to be made with respect thereto (whether
         pursuant to the terms of any IXATA ERISA Plan or otherwise) on or prior
         to the date of this Agreement have been timely made.

                  (e) No IXATA ERISA Plan is a "multi-employer pension plan," as
         defined in Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA, nor has IXATA ever been a party
         to any agreement which required it to contribute to a multi-employer
         pension plan on behalf of any employee, nor is any IXATA ERISA Plan a
         plan described in Section 4063(a) of ERISA.

                  (f) Each of the IXATA Plans has been operated and administered
         in all material respects in accordance with applicable laws, including,
         but not limited to, ERISA and the Code except for requirements which
         could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in the
         aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect.

                  (g) No amounts payable under IXATA Plans or any other
         contract, arrangement or agreement will fail to be deductible for
         federal income tax purposes by virtue of Section 280G of the Code.


                                       11


                  (h) No IXATA Plan provides benefits, including without
         limitation death or medical benefits (whether or not insured), with
         respect to current or former employees of IXATA or any IXATA ERISA
         Affiliate beyond those employees' retirement or other termination of
         service, other than (i) coverage mandated by applicable law, (ii) death
         benefits or retirement benefits under any "employee pension plan," as
         that term is defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA, (iii) deferred
         compensation benefits accrued as liabilities on the books of IXATA or
         any IXATA ERISA Affiliate or (iv) benefits the full cost of which is
         borne by those employees or their beneficiaries.

                  (i) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or
         officer of IXATA or any IXATA ERISA Affiliate to severance pay,
         unemployment compensation or any other payment, except as expressly
         provided in this Agreement, or (ii) accelerate the time of payment or
         vesting, or increase the amount, of any compensation due any employee
         or officer.

         2.16 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. IXATA has provided to SecurFone complete

limited to all commercial rights to IXATA's RFP Express software. IXATA has
the lawful right to own and use all of the IXATA Intellectual Property
currently used in its business, free and clear of any Liens, and to the
knowledge of IXATA and any Seller, no such use infringes upon the lawful
rights of any other person, except as could not reasonably be expected to
have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect. To
the knowledge of IXATA and any Seller, no person is using any of the IXATA
Intellectual Property in a manner which infringes upon the lawful rights of
IXATA, except as could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in
the aggregate in an IXATA Material Adverse Effect.

         2.17 INSURANCE. IXATA has provided to SecurFone complete and
accurate copies of all insurance policies maintained by IXATA. The policies
are in full force and effect, all premiums due on IXATA's policies have been
paid, and IXATA has not received any notice of cancellation with respect
thereto. IXATA has no obligation, liability or indebtedness for premiums or
for retroactive premium adjustments for any period through the date hereof
which obligation, liability or indebtedness could reasonably be expected to
have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect. There
are no claims by IXATA under any of IXATA's insurance policies as to which
any insurance IXATA is denying liability or defending under a reservation of
rights clause.

         2.18 BROKERS. No broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to
any brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission payable by IXATA in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon

customer or supplier of IXATA has terminated its relationship with, or
materially reduced its purchases from or sales to IXATA. IXATA does not
expect that any such customer or supplier will do so as a result of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as could not reasonably
be expected to have individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material
Adverse Effect.

IXATA have been validly acquired, are in full force and effect and, except as

         any applicable Environmental Rule, and IXATA has not received any

the terms thereof except, in each case, for such non-compliance that could

given or agreed to give any gift or similar benefit to any customer,
supplier, government employee or other individual or entity who is or may be
in a position to help or hinder the business of IXATA (or assist IXATA in
connection with any actual or proposed transaction) that might subject IXATA
to any damage or penalty that could reasonably be expected to have
individually or in the aggregate an IXATA Material Adverse Effect.

         2.26 NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES. Except for the
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, anything
described in or listed in the IXATA Disclosure Letter, or any other document
delivered by IXATA pursuant to this Agreement, neither IXATA nor any other
person makes any representation or warranty to SecurFone, express or implied,
and IXATA hereby disclaims any such representation or warranty, whether by
IXATA or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives
or any other person of any document or other information. No representations,
warranties or statements of IXATA contained in this Agreement or any other
document delivered by IXATA pursuant to this Agreement contain any untrue

         own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as
         now being conducted, except where the failure to be so organized,
         existing and in good standing or to have such power and authority could
         not reasonably be expected to have individually or in the aggregate a
         Material Adverse Effect on that SecurFone Subsidiary. Each SecurFone
         Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed and in good standing to do
         business in each jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or
         operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such
         qualification or licensing necessary, except in those jurisdictions
         where the failure to be so duly qualified or licensed and in good
         standing could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in
         the aggregate a Material Adverse Effect on that SecurFone Subsidiary.


                                       17


                  (b) SecurFone is, directly or indirectly, the record and
         beneficial owner of all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of
         each of the SecurFone Subsidiaries, there are no proxies with respect
         to any such shares, and no equity securities of any SecurFone
         Subsidiary are or may become required to be issued by reason of any
         options, warrants, rights to subscribe to, calls or commitments of any
         character whatsoever relating to, or securities or rights convertible
         into or exchangeable or exercisable for, shares of any capital stock of
         any SecurFone Subsidiary, and there are no contracts, commitments,
         understandings or arrangements by which SecurFone or any SecurFone
         Subsidiary is or may be bound to issue, redeem, purchase or sell
         additional shares of capital stock of any SecurFone Subsidiary or
         securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any such
         shares. All of the shares of any SecurFone Subsidiary owned by
         SecurFone are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and are
         owned by it free and clear of any Liens, restraint on alienation, or
         any other restriction with respect to the transferability or
         assignability thereof (other than restrictions on transfer imposed by
         federal or state securities laws).

         4.04 MATERIAL INVESTMENTS. SecurFone does not directly or indirectly
own any equity or similar interest in, or any interest convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any equity or similar interest in, any
corporation (other than an SecurFone Subsidiary), partnership, joint venture
or other business association or entity which is material to SecurFone.

         4.05 AUTHORITY RELATIVE TO THIS AGREEMENT. SecurFone has the
corporate power to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its obligations
under this Agreement. The execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by SecurFone and the consummation by SecurFone of the transactions
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by SecurFone's Board of
Directors and no other corporate proceedings on the part of SecurFone are
necessary to authorize this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by
SecurFone and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of SecurFone,
enforceable against SecurFone in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
the enforcement of remedies, to general equitable principles and to
bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws.

         4.06 CONSENTS AND APPROVALS; NO VIOLATIONS. No filing with, and no
permit, authorization, consent or approval of, any court, tribunal or
Governmental Person is necessary for the execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement by SecurFone or of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
by SecurFone nor the consummation by SecurFone of the transactions
contemplated hereby, nor compliance by SecurFone with any of the provisions
hereof, will (i) conflict with or result in any breach of any provisions of
the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of SecurFone or the Certificate
of Incorporation or By-Laws of any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries, (ii) result
in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or
lapse of time or both) a default under (or give rise to any right of
termination, cancellation, vesting, payment, exercise, acceleration,
suspension or revocation), any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any
note, bond, mortgage, deed of trust, security interest, indenture, lease,
license, contract, agreement, insurance policy, plan or other instrument or
obligation to which SecurFone or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries is a party
or by which any of them or any of their properties or assets may be bound or
affected, (iii) violate any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or
regulation applicable to SecurFone, any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries or any
of their properties or assets, (iv) result in the creation or imposition of
any Lien on any asset of SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary or (v) cause
the suspension, termination or revocation of any certificates of need,
accreditation, registrations, licenses, permits

                                       18



and other consents or approvals of Governmental Persons applicable to
SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary, except in the case of clauses (ii),
(iii), (iv) and (v) for violations, breaches, defaults, terminations,
cancellations, accelerations, creations, impositions, suspensions or
revocations which could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in
the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

         4.07     SEC REPORTS AND PRELIMINARY 1998 ANNUAL REPORT.

                  (a) SecurFone has delivered to IXATA complete and accurate
         copies of (i) the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the Annual Report
         on Form 10-K, including any amendments thereto, that it has filed with
         the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for 1998, (ii) the
         Current Report on Form 8-K it filed with the SEC on December 23, 1997,
         (iii) the Registration Statement on Form S-8 it filed with the SEC on
         November 17, 1997 and (iv) the Information Statement on Schedule 14C it
         filed with the SEC on July 11, 1997 (collectively, the "SEC Reports").
         As of the date it was filed or, if it was amended or supplemented, as
         of the date such amendment or supplement was filed, each of the SEC
         Reports (i) complied in all material respects with all applicable
         requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
         the regulations or published rulings promulgated or issued thereunder
         (the "Exchange Act"), and (ii) did not contain any untrue statement of
         a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
         in such SEC Report or necessary in order to make the statements in such
         SEC Report, in light of the circumstances under which they were made,
         not misleading. Each of the audited consolidated financial statements
         and unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of SecurFone
         (including any related notes and schedules) included (or incorporated
         by reference) in such SEC Reports were prepared based upon and are
         consistent with the books and records of SecurFone and the SecurFone
         Subsidiaries (which books and records are correct and complete in all
         material respects) and fairly present, in conformity with GAAP applied
         on a consistent basis (except as may be indicated in the notes
         thereto), the consolidated financial position of SecurFone as of its
         date and the consolidated results of operations and changes in
         financial position for the period then ended (subject to normal
         year-end adjustments in the case of any unaudited interim financial
         statements).

                  (b) The SecurFone Disclosure Letter identifies and describes
         the substance of certain filings required by the Exchange Act that
         SecurFone has failed to timely file with the SEC (collectively, the
         "Late SEC Filings").

                  (c) SecurFone has provided to IXATA a preliminary draft of its
         Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998 (the
         "Preliminary SecurFone Annual Report"). The Preliminary SecurFone
         Annual Report (i) complies in all material respects with all applicable
         requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act, and
         (ii) does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
         to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
         order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
         under which they were made, not misleading.

                  (d) The Preliminary SecurFone Annual Report includes a
         preliminary draft of the audited consolidated financial statements and
         unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of SecurFone for
         the year ended December 31, 1998 (the "Preliminary SecurFone Financial
         Statements"). The Preliminary SecurFone Financial Statements were
         prepared

                                       19


         based upon and are consistent with the books and records of SecurFone
         and the SecurFone Subsidiaries (which books and records are correct and
         complete in all material respects) and fairly present, in conformity
         with GAAP applied on a consistent basis (except as may be indicated in
         the notes thereto), the consolidated financial position of SecurFone as
         of the date thereof and the consolidated results of operations and
         changes in financial position for the period then ended.

         4.08 ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES OR EVENTS. Since December 31, 1998
(the "SecurFone Financial Statement Date"), except as set forth in this
paragraph and the SEC Reports, SecurFone and the SecurFone Subsidiaries have
in all material respects conducted their business in the ordinary course
consistent with past practices and there has not occurred: (i) any SecurFone
Material Adverse Effect; (ii) any amendments or changes in the Certificate of
Incorporation or By-Laws of SecurFone; (iii) any sale, transfer, assignment,
disposition or license of, or material pledge of or material encumbrance
upon, property (tangible or intangible) of SecurFone with a value in excess
of $50,000; (iv) any material change by SecurFone in its accounting methods,
principles or practices except as required by any change in GAAP or as a
result of a change in law; (v) any material revaluation by SecurFone of any
of its assets, including, without limitation, writing down the value of
inventory or writing off notes or accounts receivable other than in the
ordinary course of business; (vi) any entry into any SecurFone Material
Agreement outside the ordinary course of business; (vii) any termination,
acceleration, cancellation or modification of any SecurFone Material
Agreement; (viii) any imposition of any Lien on any asset of SecurFone; (ix)
any capital investment in, any loan to or any acquisition of the securities
or assets of any other person; (x) any creation, incurrence, assumption or
guarantee of any indebtedness (including capitalized lease obligations); (xi)
any delay or postponement of the payment of any accounts payable or other
liabilities; (xii) any sale, issuance or other disposition of any of its
capital stock, or grant of any options, warrants or other rights of any kind
with respect to any of its capital stock; (xiii) any declaration or setting
aside of payment of any dividend or distribution with respect to its capital
stock; (xiv) the making of any loan to, or entry into any transaction with,
any of its directors, officers and employees outside the ordinary course of
business; (xv) adoption of any SecurFone Plan; and (xvi) any change in any
SecurFone Plan or other employment terms for any of its directors, officers
and employees outside the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, SecurFone has provided IXATA and Sellers with copies of a certain
Purchase Agreement and First Amendment thereto by and between SecurFone and
Teledata World Services, Inc. (the "Teledata Purchase Agreement"), the
specific terms and conditions of which have yet to be fully disclosed to the
SEC. IXATA and Sellers acknowledge having received and reviewed the Teledata
Purchase Agreement and have had an opportunity to fully review the terms and
conditions thereof and the facts and circumstances surrounding such
transaction.

         4.09 LITIGATION. Except for any Actions disclosed in the SEC
Reports, there is no Action pending or, to the knowledge of SecurFone and
Montpilier, threatened against or affecting SecurFone or any of the SecurFone
Subsidiaries, nor is there any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of
any court, tribunal, arbitrator or Governmental Person outstanding against
SecurFone or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries.

         4.10 ABSENCE OF UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. Except for liabilities or
obligations which are accrued or reserved against in SecurFone's financial
statements (or reflected in the notes thereto) included in the Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q last filed with the SEC by SecurFone or which were
incurred after the SecurFone Financial Statement Date in the ordinary course
of business and

                                       20


consistent with past practices, SecurFone and the SecurFone Subsidiaries do
not have any material liabilities or obligations (whether absolute, accrued,
contingent or otherwise).

         4.11 NO DEFAULT. Neither SecurFone nor any of the SecurFone
Subsidiaries is in violation or breach of, or default under (and no event has
occurred which with notice or the lapse of time or both would constitute a
violation or breach of, or a default under) any term, condition or provision
of (i) its Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws, (ii) any note, bond,
mortgage, deed of trust, security interest, indenture, license, agreement,
plan, contract, lease, insurance policy, commitment or other instrument or
obligation to which SecurFone or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries is a party
or by which they or any of their properties or assets may be bound or
affected, (iii) any order, writ, injunction, decree, statute, rule or
regulation applicable to SecurFone or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries or
any of their properties or assets (other than the failure to timely file the
Late SEC Reports), or (iv) any license, permit and other consent or approval
of Governmental Persons applicable to SecurFone or any of the SecurFone
Subsidiaries, except in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above for
breaches, defaults or violations which could not reasonably be expected to
have individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

         4.12     TAXES.

                  (a) SecurFone and each of the SecurFone Subsidiaries has (i)
         timely filed (or has had timely filed on its behalf) or will cause to
         be timely filed all material Tax Returns required by applicable law to
         be filed by any of them for tax years ended prior to the date of this
         Agreement and all such Tax Returns and amendments thereto are or will
         be complete and accurate in all material respects, (ii) paid (or has
         had paid on its behalf) all Taxes due or has properly accrued or
         reserved for all such Taxes for such periods and (iii) accrued for all
         Taxes for periods commencing after the periods covered by such Tax
         Returns and ending prior to the date hereof. Neither SecurFone nor any
         SecurFone Subsidiary is currently the beneficiary of any extension of
         time within which to file any Tax Return.

                  (b) There are no Liens for Taxes upon the assets of SecurFone
         or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries, except Liens for Taxes not yet
         due or being contested in good faith.

                  (c) There are no deficiencies or adjustments for Taxes that
         have been proposed or assessed by any Tax Authority against SecurFone
         or any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries and which remain unpaid. There is
         no dispute or claim concerning any liability for Taxes of SecurFone or
         any SecurFone Subsidiary, and no Audit of any Tax Returns is currently
         underway or, to the knowledge of SecurFone and Montpilier, threatened.

                  (d) Neither SecurFone nor any SecurFone Subsidiary has any Tax
         sharing, Tax indemnity, or similar agreements to which SecurFone or any
         of SecurFone Subsidiaries is a party, is bound by, or has any
         obligation or liability for Taxes.

                  (e) SecurFone and SecurFone Subsidiaries have not paid, and do
         not expect to pay, in any taxable year commencing on or after December
         31, 1994, remuneration that would result in a disallowance of any
         material amount of tax deductions under Section 162(m) of the Code.
         There are no changes in the tax accounting methods subject to Section
         481(a) of the Code which have an ongoing material effect on SecurFone
         or any of SecurFone Subsidiaries.

                                       21



         No "consent" within the meaning of Section 341(f) of the Code has been
         filed with respect to SecurFone or any of SecurFone Subsidiaries.

         4.13 TITLE TO CERTAIN PROPERTIES; ENCUMBRANCES. SecurFone and the
SecurFone Subsidiaries hold good and marketable title to all real and
personal property purported to be owned by them, free and clear of all Liens,
except for: (i) any Lien for current Taxes not yet due and payable; and (ii)
Liens that could not reasonably be expected to have individually or in the
aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect and that otherwise do not
adversely effect the value or the use by SecurFone or SecurFone Subsidiaries,
as the case may be, of the property that is the subject of such Liens.
SecurFone has provided IXATA with copies of all real property leases to which
SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary is a party and has provided to IXATA a
list of all real property owned or leased by SecurFone or any SecurFone
Subsidiary except such leases or property which individually or in the
aggregate are immaterial. Each lease to which SecurFone or any SecurFone
Subsidiary is a party is in full force and effect and no party thereto is in
default of any of its material obligations thereunder. No consent by or of
any party to any such lease is required in order to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement without causing a breach or
violation of or default or increased charges under such lease.

         4.14 COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. Each of SecurFone and the
SecurFone Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable laws (other than
those relating to the timely filing of the Late SEC Reports), except where
the failure to be in such compliance could not reasonably be expected to have
individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

         4.15     LABOR MATTERS.

                  (a) Neither SecurFone nor any of the SecurFone Subsidiaries is
         a party to, or bound by, any collective bargaining agreement, contract
         or other agreement or understanding with a labor union or labor
         organization. There is no unfair labor practice or labor arbitration
         proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of SecurFone and Montpilier,
         threatened against SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary relating to
         their business, except for any such proceedings which could not
         reasonably be expected to have individually or in the aggregate a
         SecurFone Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of SecurFone and
         Montpilier, there are no organizational efforts with respect to the
         formation of a collective bargaining unit presently being made or
         threatened involving employees of SecurFone or any SecurFone
         Subsidiary, nor does any labor union or organization claim to represent
         the employees of SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary.

                  (b) There is no labor strike, dispute, slow down, work
         stoppage, or lockout actually pending or, to the knowledge of SecurFone
         and Montpilier, threatened against SecurFone or any SecurFone
         Subsidiary.

                  (c) There are no charges or complaints, instituted by, or
         before, any Governmental Person pending or, to the knowledge of
         SecurFone and Montpilier, threatened against SecurFone or any SecurFone
         Subsidiary involving any employment or labor matter, including, without
         limitation, any: (i) complaints or citations under the Occupational
         Safety and Health Act or any state or local occupational safety act or
         regulation since December 31, 1994; (ii) unfair labor practice charges
         or complaints with the National Labor Relations

                                       22



         Board; or (iii) other claims, charges, actions or controversies
         (including without limitation, claims of discrimination, wrongful
         discharge, or employment-related tort); pending or threatened involving
         SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary and any employee, any former
         employee, or any labor union or other organization representing or
         claiming to represent the interests of any such employee or former
         employee. SecurFone and each SecurFone Subsidiary is and has been in
         compliance with all applicable laws regarding employment and employment
         practices, terms and conditions of employment and wages and hours and
         occupational safety and health programs, and neither SecurFone nor any
         SecurFone Subsidiary is engaged in any violation of any applicable law
         related to employment, including unfair labor practices or acts of
         employment discrimination, except in each case where the failure to be
         in such compliance could not reasonably be expected to have
         individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

         4.16     EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS; ERISA.

                  (a) With respect to each of the bonus, deferred compensation,
         incentive compensation, stock purchase, stock option, severance or
         termination pay, hospitalization or other medical, life or other
         insurance, supplemental unemployment benefits, profit-sharing, pension,
         or retirement plan or program, and each other employee benefit plan,
         program, agreement or arrangement of SecurFone and SecurFone's
         Subsidiaries (the "SecurFone Plans") in force on or after December 31,
         1994, except for multi-employer plans as defined in Section 3(37)(A) of
         ERISA, SecurFone has delivered to IXATA complete and accurate copies of
         each of the following documents: (i) the plan documents of each of the
         SecurFone Plans (including all amendments thereto); (ii) the annual
         report and actuarial report, if required under ERISA, with respect to
         each of SecurFone Plans that is an "employee benefit plan," as that
         term is defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA (the "SecurFone ERISA Plans"),
         for the last two years; (iii) the most recent Summary Plan Description,
         together with each Summary of Material Modifications, required under
         ERISA with respect to the SecurFone ERISA Plans; (iv) if the SecurFone
         Plans are funded through a trust or any third party funding vehicle, a
         copy of the trust or other funding agreement (including all amendments
         thereto) and the latest financial statements thereof; and (v) the most
         recent determination letter received from the Internal Revenue Service
         with respect to each SecurFone ERISA Plan intended to qualify under
         Section 401(a) of the Code.

                  (b) No liability under Title IV of ERISA has been incurred by
         SecurFone, any SecurFone Subsidiary or any company that is an affiliate
         of SecurFone under ERISA (an "SecurFone ERISA Affiliate") since the
         effective date of ERISA that has not been satisfied in full, and no
         condition exists that presents a material risk to SecurFone, any
         SecurFone Subsidiary or any SecurFone ERISA Affiliate of incurring any
         liability under Title IV (other than liability for premiums due to the
         Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation). To the extent this
         representation applies to Section 4064, Section 4069 or Section 4204 of
         Title IV of ERISA, it is made not only with respect to SecurFone ERISA
         Plans but also with respect to any employee benefit plan, program,
         agreement or arrangement subject to Title IV of ERISA to which
         SecurFone, any SecurFone Subsidiary or any SecurFone ERISA Affiliate
         made, or was required to make, contributions during the five-year
         period ending on the date of this Agreement.

                  (c) With respect to each SecurFone ERISA Plan which is subject
         to Title IV of ERISA, the present value of accrued benefits under that
         plan, based upon the actuarial

                                       23



         assumptions used for financial reporting purposes in the most recent
         actuarial report prepared by that plan's actuary with respect to that
         plan, did not exceed, as of its latest valuation date, the then current
         value of the assets of that plan allocable to those accrued benefits.

                  (d) No SecurFone ERISA Plan or any trust established
         thereunder has incurred any "accumulated funding deficiency" (as
         defined in Section 302 of ERISA and Section 412 of the Code), whether
         or not waived, as of the last day of the most recent fiscal year of
         each SecurFone ERISA Plan ended prior to the date of this Agreement,
         and all contributions required to be made with respect thereto (whether
         pursuant to the terms of any SecurFone ERISA Plan or otherwise) on or
         prior to the date of this Agreement have been timely made.

                  (e) No SecurFone ERISA Plan is a "multi-employer pension
         plan," as defined in Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA, nor has SecurFone ever
         been a party to any agreement which required it to contribute to a
         multi-employer pension plan on behalf of any employee, nor is any
         SecurFone ERISA Plan a plan described in Section 4063(a) of ERISA.

                  (f) Each of the SecurFone Plans has been operated and
         administered in all material respects in accordance with applicable
         laws, including, but not limited to, ERISA and the Code except for
         requirements which could not reasonably be expected to have
         individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

                  (g) No amounts payable under SecurFone Plans or any other
         contract, arrangement or agreement will fail to be deductible for
         federal income tax purposes by virtue of Section 280G of the Code.

                  (h) No SecurFone Plan provides benefits, including without
         limitation death or medical benefits (whether or not insured), with
         respect to current or former employees of SecurFone, any SecurFone
         Subsidiary or any SecurFone ERISA Affiliate beyond those employees'
         retirement or other termination of service, other than (i) coverage
         mandated by applicable law, (ii) death benefits or retirement benefits
         under any "employee pension plan," as that term is defined in Section
         3(2) of ERISA, (iii) deferred compensation benefits accrued as
         liabilities on the books of SecurFone, any SecurFone Subsidiary or any
         SecurFone ERISA Affiliate or (iv) benefits the full cost of which is
         borne by those employees or their beneficiaries.

                  (i) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
         Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or
         officer of SecurFone, any SecurFone Subsidiary or any SecurFone ERISA
         Affiliate to severance pay, unemployment compensation or any other
         payment, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, or (ii)
         accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or increase the amount, of
         any compensation due any employee or officer.

         4.17 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. SecurFone and the SecurFone Subsidiaries
have the lawful right to use all Intellectual Property currently used in any
of their businesses, free and clear of any Liens, and to the knowledge of
SecurFone and Montpilier, no such use infringes upon the lawful rights of any
other person, except as could not reasonably be expected to have individually
or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of
SecurFone and Montpilier, no person is using any Intellectual Property in a
manner which infringes upon the lawful rights of

                                       24

effect, all premiums due on the policies have been paid, and neither
SecurFone nor any SecurFone Subsidiary has received any notice of
cancellation with respect thereto. Neither SecurFone nor any SecurFone
Subsidiary has any obligation, liability or indebtedness for premiums or for

such customer or supplier will do so as a result of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, except as could not reasonably be expected to
have individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse Effect.

         4.21 GOVERNMENTAL PERMITS. The Governmental Permits obtained by

SecurFone or any SecurFone Subsidiary to carry on its business as now being
conducted and to own, occupy or use its properties and assets. SecurFone and
the SecurFone Subsidiaries are in compliance with all their Governmental

                  (c) To the knowledge of SecurFone and Montpilier, no event has
         occurred and no condition exists with respect to SecurFone or any
         SecurFone Subsidiary or their business, properties or assets which
         could reasonably be expected to have individually or in the aggregate a
         SecurFone Material Adverse Effect under any applicable Environmental
         Rule, and neither SecurFone nor any SecurFone Subsidiary has received
         any notice from any Governmental Person or any other person of its
         intention to impose any liability, cost or expense upon SecurFone under
         any applicable Environmental Rule which could reasonably be expected to
         have individually or in the aggregate a SecurFone Material Adverse
         Effect.

         dispute such claim and shall pay the amount of any claim ultimately
         determined to be owed by him as follows:

                           (i) If such Seller or Sellers accept(s) the amount of
                  the SecurFone Indemnified Loss, then such Seller or Sellers
                  shall immediately reimburse the SecurFone Indemnitees for the

                           (ii) If one or more Sellers disputes the claim for
                  any SecurFone Indemnified Loss, then he shall so notify the
                  SecurFone Indemnitees. If such Seller or Sellers and the

                  (b) Within 20 days of written demand on SecurFone of a claim
         of any Seller Indemnified Loss, SecurFone shall notify Seller
         Indemnitees of its decision to accept or dispute such claim and shall
         pay the amount of any claim ultimately determined to be owed by its as
         follows:

                           (i) If SecurFone and Montpilier accept the amount of

                  shall immediately reimburse the Seller Indemnitees for the
                  SecurFone Indemnified Loss. The payment of any amount of
                  Seller Indemnified Loss will be allocated among the Sellers in
                  the amounts to be determined by reference to their

                  for any Seller Indemnified Loss, then SecurFone and Montpilier
                  shall so notify the Sellers. If SecurFone and the Seller
                  Indemnitees are unable to resolve the dispute within 60 days

                                       30


         SecurFone Indemnified Loss. For purposes hereof, the value of each
         Indemnifying Purchase Share shall be deemed to be equal to the closing
         price per share of SecurFone Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board averaged

         pursuant to Section 6.04(a) or Section 6.04(b), as the case may be.

         Action arises and is known to the indemnified party, and shall give the
         indemnifying party a reasonable opportunity:

                           (i) to conduct any proceedings or negotiations in
                  connection therewith and necessary or appropriate to defend
                  the indemnified party;

                           (ii) to take all other required steps or proceedings
                  to settle or defend any such Action; and

                           (iii) to employ counsel to contest any such Action in
                  the name of the indemnified party or otherwise.

         The expenses of all proceedings, contests or lawsuits with respect to
         such Actions will be borne by the indemnifying party. If the
         indemnifying parties wish to assume the defense of such Action, then
         the indemnifying party shall give written notice to the indemnified
         parties within thirty days after notice from the indemnified parties of
         such Action (unless the Action requires a response in less than 30 days
         after the notice is given, in which event they shall notify the
         indemnified parties as soon as possible but in no event less than ten
         days prior to the required response date), and the indemnifying party
         shall thereafter assume the defense of any such Action through counsel
         reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified parties; provided, that the
         indemnified parties may participate in such defense at their own
         expense. The defense and settlement of the Action will be controlled by
         the indemnifying party; provided that the indemnifying party will use
         its best efforts to avoid taking any action that would significantly
         prejudice or harm any of the indemnified parties or any of their
         businesses, assets or properties.

                  (b) If the indemnifying parties do not assume the defense of,
         or if after assuming the defense the indemnifying parties fail to
         defend, any such Action, then the indemnified parties may defend
         against such Action in any manner they deem appropriate (provided that
         the indemnifying parties may participate in such defense at their own
         expense) and the indemnified parties may settle such Action on any
         terms they deem appropriate (with the consent of indemnifying parties
         on the conditions that (i) such consent not be unreasonably withheld or
         delayed, and (ii) if the indemnifying parties do not so consent, then
         the indemnifying parties shall immediately (A) assume the defense of
         such Action and (B) reimburse the indemnified parties for their
         expenses relating to the defense of such Action in accordance with the
         next sentence). In addition, the indemnifying parties shall promptly
         reimburse the indemnified parties for the amount of all expenses, legal
         and otherwise, reasonably and necessarily incurred by the indemnified
         parties in connection with

                                       31



         the defense against and settlement of such Action. If no settlement of
         such Action is made, the indemnifying parties shall satisfy any
         judgment rendered with respect to such Action, before the indemnified
         parties are required to do so, and pay all expenses, legal or
         otherwise, reasonably and necessarily incurred by the indemnified
         parties in the defense of such Action.

                  (c) If a judgment is rendered against any of the indemnified
         parties in any Action covered by the indemnification under this
         Agreement, or any Lien in respect of such judgment attaches to any of
         the assets or properties of any of the indemnified parties, the
         indemnifying parties shall immediately upon such entry or attachment
         pay such judgment in full or discharge such Lien unless, at the expense
         and direction of the indemnifying parties, an appeal is taken under
         which the execution of the judgment or satisfaction of the Lien is
         stayed. If and when a final judgment is rendered in any such Action,
         the indemnifying parties shall immediately pay such judgment or
         discharge such Lien before any of the indemnified parties is compelled
         to do so.

                  (a) An indemnifying party will not have any liability under

7.       GENERAL PROVISIONS

         7.01 SURVIVAL PERIOD. The representations and warranties of the parties
contained in this Agreement will survive any investigation heretofore or
hereafter made by any party, their agents and representatives and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will
continue in full force and effect for the period specified below (the "Survival
Period"):

                  (a) The representations and warranties of the parties
         contained in this Agreement will survive until, in the absence of
         willful misconduct or fraud, and will be of no further force and effect
         after, the expiration of one year from the date of this Agreement;
         provided, however, that the representations of IXATA and each Seller in
         Sections 2.04 and 2.06 above, the representations of each Seller in
         Sections 3.01 and 3.03 above, the representations of SecurFone

                                       32


         and Montpilier in Sections 4.05, 4.07 and 4.27 above and the
         representations of Montpilier in Section 4A.01 above will survive
         indefinitely.

                  (b) The Survival Period will be extended automatically to
         include any time period necessary to resolve, and collect upon, a claim
         for indemnification that was made in writing before expiration of the
         Survival Period but not resolved prior to its expiration; provided,
         further, that any such extension will apply only as to claims asserted
         and not so resolved within the Survival Period. Liability for any item
         will continue until such claim is finally settled, decided or
         adjudicated.

                  (c) No fact, event, misrepresentation or occurrence that, in
         the absence of this Section 7.01, would constitute a breach of any
         representations or warranties made by any of the parties under this
         Agreement or any other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement
         will be deemed to constitute a breach of any party's representation or
         warranty if the party claiming the breach has actual knowledge of such
         fact, event, misrepresentation or occurrence on the date of this
         Agreement.

party hereto to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right, power or
remedy created under this Agreement, will operate as a waiver thereof, nor
will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy by any such
party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or remedy. No waiver by any party hereto of any breach of
or default in any term or condition of this Agreement will constitute a

                                VOTING AGREEMENT

         THIS VOTING AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of
July 1, 1999, by and among SecurFone America, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), Montpilier Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation
("Montpilier"), and the undersigned stockholders of the Company (each, an
"IXATA Stockholder" and collectively, the "IXATA Stockholders").

                                    RECITALS:

         A. Montpilier and the IXATA Stockholders are referred to below
individually as a "Stockholder" and collectively as the "Stockholders."

         B. As of the date of this Agreement, the Stockholders are the legal
and beneficial owners of the number of shares of the Company's common stock,
$0.01 par value per share ("Stock"), listed opposite their respective names
on SCHEDULE I attached hereto.

         C. This Agreement is being executed and delivered in connection with
the purchase by the Company of all of the outstanding capital stock of IXATA,
Inc., a California corporation ("IXATA"), pursuant to that certain Stock
Purchase Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among the Company, IXATA
and the Stockholders (the "IXATA Purchase Agreement").

         D. The Stockholders believe that it is in their mutual best interest
(i) that qualified persons serve the Company as members of its Board of
Directors (the "Board of Directors") to provide advice as to the Company's
management, policies, administration and development and (ii) to make
provision for the voting of the Stock and any other class of capital stock of
the Company entitled to vote (together with the Stock, the "Voting Stock")
held by the Stockholders and certain other matters concerning the governance
of the Company.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual
promises set forth below and in the IXATA Purchase Agreement, and of other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.       SCOPE AND TERM OF AGREEMENT.

         1.1 SCOPE OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall govern (i) the voting
of all shares of Voting Stock of which any Stockholder is now or in the
future becomes the legal or beneficial owner, including, without limitation,
any shares of Voting Stock acquired upon the exercise of any stock options
issued by the Company, and (ii) all action taken by any of the Stockholders
with respect to the appointment or election of directors of the Company. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term "beneficial owner" has the meaning
assigned to it in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

         1.2 EFFECT OF TRANSFER OF SHARES. Subject to Section 4.4 below, in
the event that any Stockholder voluntarily or involuntarily transfers, sells,
assigns, exchanges, gifts, pledges or otherwise disposes of any of his, her
or its shares of Voting Stock to any person or entity other than a Permitted
Transferee (as defined below), the acquirer of said shares shall not thereby
acquire any rights under

                                       38


this Agreement and shall not be considered a "Stockholder" hereunder. For
purposes of this Agreement, a "Permitted Transferee" means any of the
following: (i) the Company; (ii) any other Stockholder; (iii) a lineal
descendant of the transferring Stockholder, if such transferring Stockholder
is a natural person; (iv) to the estate of the transferring Stockholder, if
such transferring Stockholder is a natural person, upon his or her death; (v)
to a trust created by or on behalf of the transferring Stockholder, if such
transferring Stockholder is a natural person and the primary beneficiaries of
the trust are any one or more of the transferring Stockholder, his or her
spouse, his or her lineal descendants and their spouses and any organization
described in Section 2055(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (vi) if the transferring
Stockholder is a trust, to any one or more beneficiaries of such trust who
are described in clause (v) of this sentence (determined as if the settler of
the trust was the transferring Stockholder); or (vii) if the transferring
Stockholder is not a natural person, to any one or more stockholders,
partners, members or other owners of such entity. For purposes of this
Agreement, a Permitted Transferee shall acquire all of the rights and
obligations of the transferring Stockholder with respect to the transferred
shares of Voting Stock.

         1.3 TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement will terminate upon the first
to occur of: (i) the mutual written agreement of all of the Stockholders to
terminate this Agreement; (ii) the death or dissolution of the last of the
IXATA Stockholders having any rights or obligations under this Agreement;
(iii) the sale or 80% or more of the outstanding capital stock of SecurFone;
(iv) the IXATA Stockholders cease to collectively own at least 25% of the
outstanding Voting Stock on a fully diluted basis; or (v) the fifth
anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

2.       BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

         2.1 COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of SecurFone
as in effect from time to time, and subject to applicable law, each of the
Stockholders agrees to take, or cause any persons or entities under his, her
or its control to take, all necessary or desirable actions within his, her or
its control (whether as a director, member of a committee of the Board of
Directors or officer of the Company and including, without limitation, voting
all shares of Voting Stock under his, her or its direction or control and, to
the extent permitted by the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the
Company, each as then in effect, executing and delivering any written
consents of stockholders and calling special stockholders' meetings) to
ensure that:

                  (a) The Board of Directors shall at all times consist of six
         members, three of whom shall by designated by Montpilier from time to
         time (collectively, the "Montpilier Designees") and three of whom shall
         be designated by the vote or consent of a majority of the shares of
         Stock held by the IXATA Stockholders from time to time (collectively,
         the "IXATA Designees").

                  (b) The initial Montpilier Designees shall be the current
         directors of SecurFone, namely Michael M. Grand, Paul B. Silverman and
         Andrew H. Kent.

                  (c) The initial IXATA Designees shall be Fred Gluckman, Robert
         A. Steiner and Paul Hatch.


                                       39


                  (d) Any vacancy on the Board of Directors as so composed shall
         be filled only by: (i) Montpilier if the vacancy results from the
         death, disability, resignation or removal of any of the Montpilier
         Designees; and (ii) by the vote or consent of a majority of the shares
         of Stock held by the IXATA Stockholders if the vacancy results from the
         death, disability, resignation or removal of any of the IXATA
         Designees.

                  (e) A Montpilier Designee may only be removed by Montpilier,
         and an IXATA Designee may only be removed by the vote or consent of a
         majority of the shares of Stock held by the IXATA Stockholders.

         2.2 AGREEMENT OF THE COMPANY. The Company agrees that it will not
give effect to any vote cast or other action taken by any Stockholder with
respect to any matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company
unless such vote or action is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

3.       REMEDIES.

         3.1 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The parties agree that the failure of any
party to observe the obligations provided by this Agreement will result in
irreparable damage to the non-defaulting parties and that any non-defaulting
party may seek specific performance of such obligations in any federal or
state court permitted by Section 3.2 below.

         3.2 SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS;
VENUE. Each of the parties agrees and consents to the jurisdiction of the
Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court
for the State of Delaware, and waives any objection based on venue or FORUM
NON CONVENIENS with respect to any action instituted, and agrees that any
dispute concerning this Agreement or any of the transactions described in
this Agreement may be heard only in the courts described above. Each of the
parties consents to the service of any process in any such action by delivery
of such process by certified U.S. mail to the addresses of the parties
determined in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof, as well as by any other
means of service permitted by applicable law.

             (ii) If to any Stockholder:  The address thereof set forth opposite
                                          his, her or its name on SCHEDULE I

         4.2 AMENDMENT. No change in, modification of or amendment to this
Agreement will be valid unless it is in writing and signed by each party to
this Agreement.

         4.3 WAIVER. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at
any time by the party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but only if
such waiver is evidenced by a writing signed by that party. No failure on the
part of any party hereto to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right,
power or remedy created under this Agreement, will operate as a waiver
thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
remedy by any such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or
the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No waiver by any party
hereto of any breach of or default in any term or condition of this Agreement
will constitute a waiver of or assent to any succeeding breach of or default
in the same or any other term or condition hereof.

         4.4 ASSIGNMENT. No Stockholder may assign any of his, her or its
rights or obligations under this Agreement to any person or entity other than
a Permitted Transferee without the written consent of all of the other
Stockholders. The Company may not assign any of its obligations hereunder
other than pursuant to a merger of which it is the surviving corporation.

         4.5 BENEFIT AND BURDEN. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of
the Stockholders, any Permitted Transferees or permitted assignees thereof
and the Company, and shall be binding upon the parties to this Agreement and

distributees, estates, executors, administrators, personal representatives,
successors and permitted assigns, as the case may be.

                                       41


         4.6 GOVERNING LAW. The validity and effect of this Agreement will be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
State of Delaware.

         4.7 PARTIAL INVALIDITY AND SEVERABILITY. All rights and restrictions
contained in this Agreement may be exercised and will be applicable and
binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and
are intended to be limited to the extent necessary to render this Agreement
legal, valid and enforceable. If any term or part of this Agreement is held
to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction,
it is the intention of the parties that the remaining terms or partial terms
will constitute their agreement with respect to the subject matter of this
Agreement and all remaining terms or partial terms will remain in full force
and effect. To the extent legally permissible, any illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision of this Agreement will be replaced by a valid
provision that will implement the commercial purpose of the illegal, invalid
or unenforceable provision.

         4.8 INTEGRATION. This Agreement, including SCHEDULE I hereto, and
the IXATA Purchase Agreement set forth all of the promises, agreements,
conditions and understandings among the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede and are intended to be an
integration of any and all prior agreements or understandings with respect
thereto.

         4.9 EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed by any
one or more of the parties in any number of counterparts, each of which will
be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts will together
constitute one and the same instrument. The execution of counterparts will
not be deemed to constitute delivery of this Agreement by any party.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed and delivered this
Agreement as of the date first set forth above.
