WTT Wireless Telecom

Wireless Telecom Group, Inc. (AMEX Symbol: WTT) a global provider of electronic noise generation equipment in the telecommunications field, announced today that it has completed the acquisition of Willtek Communications GmbH, a leading German supplier of testing solutions for emerging wireless services and cellular networks. In accordance with the amended and restated stock purchase agreement among WTT, Willtek, and each of Willtek's two shareholders, Investcorp Technology Ventures, L.P. and Damany Holding GmbH, effective July 1, 2005, WTT purchased all of the outstanding share capital of Willtek from the Willtek shareholders, in exchange for 8,000,000 newly issued shares of WTT's common stock. Based on the $2.69 closing price of a share of WTT's common stock as reported on the American Stock Exchange on June 30, 2005, the dollar value of the acquisition consideration is approximately $21.5 million. At the closing of the acquisition, an aggregate of 7,000,000 shares were issued directly to the Willtek shareholders and 1,000,000 shares were deposited in escrow, for a one-year period following the closing date, as collateral for the indemnification obligations of the Willtek shareholders under the purchase agreement. Based on the number of shares of WTT's common stock outstanding on June 30, 2005, the Willtek shareholders presently own in the aggregate approximately 31.4% of WTT's outstanding common stock, with Investcorp owning approximately 25.4% and Damany Holding owning approximately 6.0%. In connection with the closing of the acquisition, WTT also has guaranteed payment of certain outstanding indebtedness of Willtek to Investcorp equal to EUR 3.5 million (approximately $4.3 million), plus accrued but unpaid interest at the rate of 8% per year through the closing date of the acquisition (approximately EUR 607,000, or approximately $735,000). Effective at the closing, Paul Genova resigned as a director of WTT, but will continue to serve in his capacity as President and Chief Financial Officer of WTT. At that time, two of Investcorp's designees, Savio W. Tung and Hazem Ben-Gacem, were appointed to WTT's board. Mr. Tung was appointed Chairman of the Board, replacing Karabet "Gary" Simonyan, who was appointed non-executive Vice Chairman of the Board. In addition, at the closing, Cyrille Damany, the Chief Executive Officer of Willtek and the sole shareholder of Damany Holding, was appointed by WTT's board as the new Chief Executive Officer of WTT, replacing Mr. Simonyan, who had served as interim Chief Executive Officer of WTT since July 2004. At the closing, WTT and the Willtek shareholders entered into a shareholders' agreement, which provides that for so long as Investcorp's level of beneficial ownership of WTT's common stock continuously equals or exceeds certain percentage thresholds, at each annual or special meeting of WTT's shareholders at which directors are to be elected, Investcorp will be entitled to designate to WTT's nominating committee up to two candidates for nomination for election to WTT's board. These rights will expire at such time as Investcorp owns less than 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of WTT's common stock, subject to a 20-day grace period. Furthermore, in addition to restrictions on transfer imposed under U.S. federal and state securities or "blue sky" laws, the shareholders' agreement provides for certain restrictions on the transfer of the shares of WTT's common stock received by the Willtek shareholders in the acquisition, as well as certain registration rights with respect to such shares. "We are pleased that the acquisition of Willtek is complete and look forward to continuing the work that has already been accomplished between the two companies," said Gary Simonyan, WTT's Vice Chairman. "The combination of Willtek's operations with WTT's strengthens our competitive position, will add significant incremental revenue and afford the combined company the ability to offer a wider range of products to a larger, global customer base," Mr. Simonyan added. "The acquisition is a significant event in the future direction of our company and is a major step that is consistent with our strategic plan." "I am very excited to join this dynamic organization, and I look forward to leading the combined company's efforts to capitalize on a more diversified product and technology portfolio, complementary customer relationships and distribution channels on a global platform," said Cyrille Damany, WTT's newly appointed Chief Executive Officer. "Our high quality technology and global presence place the combined company at the forefront of the electronic noise generation equipment and wireless communications testing market, and we are eager to deliver a broader range of technology and products to our customers and markets."
