                                     PART II

ITEM 3. INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

     The following documents filed by Repeater Technologies, Inc. (the
"Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission are incorporated by
reference into this Registration Statement:

     (a) The Company's final prospectus filed August 9, 2000 pursuant to Rule
424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
which contains audited financial statements for the Company's latest fiscal year
for which such statements have been filed, including any amendment or report
filed for the purpose of updating such prospectus.

     (b) All other reports filed pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), since the end
of the fiscal year covered by the prospectus referred to in (a) above.

     (c) The description of the Company's Common Stock contained in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A, filed August 3, 2000 under the
Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of
updating such description.

     All reports and other documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant
to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing
of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have
been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be
deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be a part of this
registration statement from the date of the filing of such reports and
documents.


ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

     Not applicable.


ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

     The validity of the issuance of the Common Stock offered hereby will be
passed upon for the Company by Cooley Godward LLP, Palo Alto, California. An
investment partnership of Cooley Godward attorneys and specialists beneficially
owns an aggregate of 17,850 shares of the Company's Common Stock.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law the Company has
broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they
may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The Company's Bylaws require the Company to indemnify its directors and
executive officers, and permit the Company to indemnify its other officers,
employees and other agents, to the extent permitted by Delaware law. Under the
Company's Bylaws, indemnified parties are entitled to indemnification for
negligence, gross negligence and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by
law. The Bylaws also require the Company to advance litigation expenses in the
case of stockholder derivative actions or other actions, against an undertaking
by the indemnified party to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined
that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification.

     The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its
directors and executive officers. Such indemnity agreements contain provisions
which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions
contained in Delaware law.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

     Not applicable.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

1.   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

     (a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

               (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;

               (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
table in the effective registration statement; and

               (iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement;

                                       2.
<PAGE>   5

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference herein.

     (b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

     (c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

2.   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
     determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
     registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of
     the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
     plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
     incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to
     be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein,
     and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
     initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.   Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
     may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
     registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
     registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
     Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
     expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
     event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
     the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
     officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
     of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
     controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
     registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
     settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
     jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
     public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
     the final adjudication of such issue.
