------------------------
Parent, Purchaser and certain stockholders of the Issuer, namely Mahesh Veerina,

----------------------
things, each Principal Stockholder has agreed to (i) tender its shares of Common
Stock in the Offer (as defined below), (ii) vote its shares of Common Stock in
favor of the Merger (as defined below) and (iii) grant to Purchaser an option to
purchase its shares of Common Stock at $5.80 per share upon the terms and
subject to the conditions set forth in its Stockholder's Agreement (the
"Option"). A copy of the form of Stockholder's Agreement executed by each of the
------
foregoing is filed herewith as Exhibit B to this Schedule 13D and are
---------
incorporated herein by reference.
The funds for the purchases of Common Stock in the Tender Offer and
pursuant to the Option will be supplied from available funds of the Reporting
Persons.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Parent, Purchaser and the Issuer entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated as of December 6, 2000 (the "Merger Agreement"), which provides
----------------
that Purchaser will offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of Common Stock
of the Issuer for $5.80 per share, net to the seller in cash (subject to
applicable withholding taxes), without interest, upon the terms and subject to
the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated December 15, 2000, and
in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase
and any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer").
-----
A copy of the Merger Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit C to this Schedule
--------
13D and is incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement provides,
among other things, that as promptly as practicable
<PAGE>
after the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer (the "Closing Date") and the
satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and in
accordance with the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware, Purchaser will be merged with and into the Issuer (the
"Merger"). Promptly after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall be entitled to
------
representation on the Issuer's board of directors equal to the product of the
total number of directors on the Issuer's board of directors multiplied by the
percentage that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially
owned by Purchaser after the Closing Date bears to the total number of shares of
Common Stock then outstanding.
As a result of the Merger, the Issuer will continue as the
surviving corporation and will become a direct wholly owned subsidiary of
Parent. Parent required that the Principal Stockholders execute the
Stockholder's Agreements as an inducement to Parent and Purchaser to enter into
the Merger Agreement. The Stockholder's Agreements are intended to provide
greater certainty that Parent's acquisition of the Issuer will be consummated.
If the Merger is consummated in accordance with the terms of the
Merger Agreement, (i) the directors and officers of Purchaser immediately prior
to the effective time of the Merger will become the initial directors and
officers of the surviving corporation, respectively, (ii) the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Issuer shall be amended and restated to read as the
Certificate of Incorporation of Purchaser as in effect immediately prior to the
effective time of the Merger, except that Article I, of such Certificate of
---------
Incorporation relating to the name of the Issuer shall be amended to read as
follows "Nokia RNI Acquisition, Inc." and (iii) the By-laws of Purchaser shall
be the By-laws of the surviving corporation. Additionally, the Common Stock
will be deregistered under the Securities Act of 1934 and delisted from The
Nasdaq National Market System.
Except as set forth above, neither the Reporting Persons, nor any
person controlling such companies, nor any of the persons named on Exhibit A,
---------
has any plan or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the
transactions described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule
13D.

a. As a result of the Stockholder's Agreements, the Reporting Persons
may be deemed to each be the beneficial owner of 7,858,187 shares of Common
Stock for purposes of Rule 13d-1(a) promulgated under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, which represents approximately 36% of the shares of
Common Stock outstanding (based on the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding on December 1, 2000).
b. The Reporting Persons have the sole power to vote or to direct the
vote or dispose or direct the disposition of 7,858,187 shares of Common Stock.
To the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no shares of Common Stock
which are beneficially owned by any other person referred to in Exhibit A
---------
hereto.

Persons, neither the Reporting Persons nor any other person referred to in
Exhibit A hereto beneficially owns or has acquired or disposed of any shares of
---------
Common Stock during the past 60 days.
<PAGE>
d. The Principal Stockholders retain the right to receive, or the
power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of,
the Common Stock of the Issuer.

all the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer for $5.80 per share,
net to the seller in cash (subject to applicable withholding taxes), without
