                                  THE COMPANY

GENERAL

                                  RISK FACTORS

     In addition to the other information in this Prospectus, the following
factors should be carefully considered in evaluating the Company and its
business before purchasing the Common Stock offered hereby.

DEPENDENCE ON PRODUCT SUPPLIERS

     Ultrak purchases the products it does not manufacture from a limited number
of non-affiliated foreign manufacturers and will continue to depend
substantially upon such manufacturers in the future. The Company does not itself
manufacture most of the products which it markets and sells. The Company has in
the past and may in the future experience difficulties obtaining, in a timely
manner, those components which are necessary for its finished products. The loss
of any one supplier of components or an inability of suppliers to provide the
Company with the required quantity or quality of components could have a
material adverse effect on Ultrak's business until such time as an alternate
source of supply for such components is found.

TECHNOLOGICAL OBSOLESCENCE

     The CCTV product industry is characterized by rapid technological change,
frequent product introductions and worldwide research. The ability of Ultrak to
compete will depend in large part on its ability to successfully adapt to
technological changes in the industry. Although the Company's products are
currently based on what it considers solid processes and technology, there is no
assurance that patents, products, processes or computer software produced by
competing companies could not supersede or make obsolete the products sold by
the Company.

COMPETITION

     The Company faces substantial competition in each of its markets.
Significant competitive factors in the Company's markets include price, quality
and product performance, breadth of product line and customer service and
support. Some of the Company's existing and potential competitors have
substantially greater financial, manufacturing, marketing and other resources
than the Company. To compete successfully, the Company must continue to make
substantial investments in its engineering and development, marketing, sales,
customer service and support activities. There can be no assurance that
competitors will not develop products that offer price or performance features
superior to the Company's products.

     The Company considers its major competitors to be the CCTV and access
control operations of Sensormatic Electronics Corporation, Burle (part of
Philips Communication & Security Systems, Inc.), Panasonic, Pelco, Vicon
Industries, Inc. and Cassi Rusco.

DEPENDENCE UPON MANAGEMENT AND KEY PERSONNEL

     The ability of the Company to continue profitable operations will depend
significantly upon its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, George
K. Broady, its Executive Vice President, Ted Wlazlowski and its Vice
President-Finance, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, Tim D. Torno, and upon
certain other key employees of the Company. The loss of the services of Messrs.
Broady, Wlazlowski or Torno or any of the Company's other key employees could be
expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business and
operations. In addition, the Company's future success will be dependent upon its
ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel.

DEPENDENCE UPON MAJOR CUSTOMER

     Sales to one customer accounted for approximately 17% of the Company's
total sales during 1998. During each of 1996 and 1997, sales to this customer
accounted for approximately 12% of the Company's total sales. An unexpected
decline in sales to this customer could have a material adverse effect on the
Company.

                                        3
<PAGE>   7

ACQUISITIONS AND EXPANSION

     Acquisitions have contributed significantly to the Company's recent growth.
The Company believes that acquisitions are an effective way to obtain new CCTV
and related products and integrated systems, add experienced personnel, access
additional channels of distribution, expand into new geographic territories,
diversify its customer base and improve operating efficiencies through economies
of scale. As the security industry continues to consolidate, Ultrak will also
continue to search for growth through acquisitions. There can be no assurance
that future acquisition opportunities will become available, that future
acquisitions can be consummated on favorable terms or that such acquisitions
will contribute to the Company's profitability. The Company's business strategy
to pursue additional acquisitions may require the Company to incur debt in the
future, result in potentially dilutive issuances of securities or result in
increased goodwill, intangible assets and amortization expense.

     Successful integration of an acquired company into existing operations can
be difficult and costly. The desired benefits of an acquisition may not be
achieved unless the separate operations of the Company and the acquired company
are successfully combined in an orderly and timely manner. The acquisition and
transition process also may divert substantial management time and attention
from the Company's other operations and activities. Any limitations or
difficulties encountered in the transition process could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

ABILITY TO ACHIEVE AND MANAGE GROWTH

     In addition to growth from acquisitions, the Company has experienced
significant internal growth. The Company's ability to continue its internal
growth will depend on a number of factors, including the availability of working
capital to support such growth, existing and emerging competition, the Company's
ability to maintain sufficient profit margins, and the Company's ability to
adapt its infrastructure and systems to accommodate growth and recruit and train
additional personnel.

EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS

     A substantial portion of the Company's purchases and sales occur outside
the United States. Since the revenues and expenses of the Company's foreign
operations are generally denominated in local currencies, exchange rate
fluctuations between local currencies and the dollar subject the Company to
currency exchange risks with respect to the results of its foreign operations.
Therefore, the Company is subject to these risks to the extent it is unable to
denominate it purchases or sales in U.S. dollars or otherwise shift to its
customers or suppliers the risks of currency exchange rate fluctuations. The
Company's foreign-based operations, primarily in Western Europe, accounted for
34% of 1998 net sales. The Company issues intercompany loans to its foreign
subsidiaries denominated in U.S. dollars, exposing the foreign subsidiaries to
the effect of changes in spot exchange rates of their local currency relative to
the U.S. dollar. In addition, many of the foreign-based operations make sales to
customers denominated in different currencies, which carry minimal market risk
because the transactions normally settle quickly. The Company does not regularly
use forward-exchange contracts to hedge these exposures. Therefore, fluctuations
in exchange rates may affect the results of the Company's international
operations reported in U.S. dollars and the value of such operations' net assets
reported in U.S. dollars. Additionally, the results of operations, financial
condition and competitive position of the Company may be affected by the
relative strength of the currencies in countries where its products are sold.
Based on the Company's foreign currency exchange rate exposure for intercompany
borrowings of approximately $15.4 million at December 31, 1998, a 10% adverse
change in currency rates would create an additional comprehensive loss of
approximately $1.5 million.

RISKS OF INTERNATIONAL TRADE

     Because a substantial portion of the Company's purchases and sales of
products are made internationally, international trade is important to the
Company's business. International trade is subject to numerous risks, including
labor strikes, shipping delays, political or economic instability, military
actions and import duties. There is no assurance that the United States, South
Korea, Japan, Italy, France, Germany, Australia,

                                        4
<PAGE>   8

Hong Kong, China or other nations will not in the future impose trade
restrictions which could adversely affect the Company's operations.

PREFERRED STOCK

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes 2,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock, $5.00 par value, of which 195,351 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") are currently issued and outstanding. The
Company's Preferred Stock may be issued in series from time to time with such
designations, rights, preferences and limitations as the Board of Directors of
the Company may determine by resolution. The potential exists that additional
series of the Company's Preferred Stock might be issued that would grant
dividend preferences and liquidation preferences to preferred stockholders over
holders of the Common Stock. Unless the nature of a particular transaction and
applicable statutes requires such approval, the Board of Directors has the
authority to issue Preferred Stock without stockholder approval. The issuance of
Preferred Stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in
control of the Company without any further action by stockholders.

CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER

     George K. Broady, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of
the Company, is the beneficial owner of 1,975,553 shares of the Common Stock. Of
that amount, Mr. Broady directly owns 1,377,403 shares of Common Stock, has
stock options that allow him to acquire 191,169 shares of Common Stock within 60
days, and the 195,351 shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by Mr. Broady are
convertible into 406,981 shares of the Common Stock. Each share of the Series A
Preferred Stock has voting rights equal to 16.667 shares of the Common Stock.
Mr. Broady therefore controls approximately 31% of the votes on all matters
which are or may be submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. The
holders of shares controlling a majority of the votes of the stockholders of the
Company can elect all of the directors of the Company and approve or disapprove
certain fundamental corporate transactions, including mergers, liquidation, a
"going private" transaction, the sale of substantially all of the Company's
assets and the authorization, issuance and sale of new securities of the
Company, and may delay or prevent a change in control of the Company.

NO DIVIDENDS

     The Company has never paid cash dividends on the Common Stock. The Company
presently intends to retain earnings to finance the development and expansion of
its business. The declaration in the future of any cash dividends on the Common
Stock will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors and will
depend upon the earnings, capital requirements and financial position of the
Company, general economic conditions and other pertinent factors. The Company
intends to continue to pay dividends on outstanding shares of Series A Preferred
Stock, all of which are owned by George K. Broady, the Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company. Dividends in the amount of $117,210 have been
paid annually to Mr. Broady since the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS

     The shares beneficially owned by Mr. Broady and the Company's other
executive officers, directors and affiliates and certain provisions contained in
the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws may have the effect of
discouraging persons from pursuing a non-negotiated takeover of the Company and
preventing certain changes of control.

     Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which is applicable to
the Company, contains provisions that restrict certain business combinations
with interested stockholders, which may have the effect of inhibiting a
non-negotiated merger or other business combination involving the Company.

     In addition, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation authorizes
2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $5.00 par value. The Company's Preferred
Stock might be issued in series from time to time with such designations,
rights, preferences and limitations as the Board of Directors of the Company may
determine by
                                        5
<PAGE>   9

resolution. The potential exists, therefore, that additional series of the
Company's Preferred Stock might be issued that would grant dividend preferences
and liquidation preferences to preferred stockholders over holders of the Common
Stock. Unless the nature of a particular transaction, applicable statutes or
NASDAQ rules require such approval, the Board of Directors has the authority to
issue Preferred Stock without stockholder approval. The issuance of Preferred
Stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the
Company without any further action by stockholders.

YEAR 2000

     The Company has designed and tested the most current versions of its
products to be Year 2000 compliant. Based upon the expected timely completion of
changes to its management information systems and its discussions with its
primary suppliers and vendors, the Company does not believe that the Year 2000
issues will have a material impact on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company. However, there can be no assurances
that the Company will not experience serious unanticipated negative consequences
and/or material costs caused by undetected errors or defects in the technology
used in the Company's products or internal systems, which are composed of third
party software, third party hardware that contains embedded software and the
Company's own software products, that may result in material costs to the
Company.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock
offered by this prospectus.

                          DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK

     The Company has authorized capital stock consisting of 20,000,000 shares of
the Common Stock, $0.01 par value, and 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock,
$5.00 par value.

THE COMMON STOCK

     All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
All holders of Common Stock have full voting rights and are entitled to one vote
for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the
stockholders. Votes may not be cumulated in the election of directors.
Stockholders have no preemptive or subscription rights. The Common Stock is
neither redeemable nor convertible, and there are no sinking fund provisions.
Holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to dividends when, as and if
declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available therefor and are
entitled, upon liquidation, to share ratably in all assets remaining after
payment of liabilities. The rights of holders of Common Stock will be subject to
the preferential rights of the Series A Preferred Stock and any preferential
rights of any Preferred Stock which may be issued in the future.

TRANSFER AGENT

     Securities Transfer Corp. is the Transfer Agent and Registrar for the
Company's Common Stock.

                              SELLING SHAREHOLDER

     Under an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated March 15, 1999 (the "ABM
Merger Agreement"), among ABM Data Systems, Inc. ("ABM"), the selling
shareholder (Robert F. James), the Company, and ABM Acquisition Corp., we must
file and cause to become effective a registration statement covering the shares
issued to the selling shareholder under the ABM Merger Agreement. We have filed
this Registration Statement according to the terms of the ABM Merger Agreement.

     The selling shareholder received 250,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the ABM Merger Agreement. All of the 250,000 shares of Common Stock being
offered under this prospectus are being offered

                                        6
<PAGE>   10

by the selling shareholder. The selling shareholder is an employee of ABM and
ABM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     The selling shareholder may from time to time sell the shares directly or
offer the shares through underwriters, dealers or agents. The distribution of
securities by the selling shareholder may be effected in one or more
transactions that may take place on the over-the-counter market, including
ordinary brokers' transactions, privately-negotiated transactions or through
sales to one or more broker-dealers for resale of such shares as principals, at
market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such
prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or
specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the selling
shareholder in connection with such sales of shares. Sales of the shares may be
made pursuant to this prospectus or, upon compliance with the provisions of Rule
144 under the Securities Act, pursuant to Rule 144.

     At the time a particular offer of shares is made by or on behalf of the
selling shareholder, to the extent required, a prospectus will be distributed
which will set forth the number of shares being offered and the terms of the
offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents, if
any, the purchase price paid by any underwriter for shares purchased from the
selling shareholder and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or
reallowed or paid to dealers, and the proposed selling price to the public.

                                 LEGAL MATTERS

     Our legal counsel, Gardere & Wynne, L.L.P., Dallas, Texas, has issued for
us an opinion about certain legal matters relating to the shares of Common Stock
being offered under this prospectus.

                                    EXPERTS

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company and subsidiaries for
and as of the fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998 included in
this Prospectus and the Registration Statement have been audited by Grant
Thornton LLP, independent public accountants, as stated in their reports thereon
appearing elsewhere herein and in the Registration Statement, and are so

                                INDEMNIFICATION

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that
eliminates the personal liability of its directors to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to
the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL").
The DGCL does not permit liability to be eliminated (i) for any breach of a
director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock
repurchases or redemptions, as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for
any transaction for which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that
provides generally for mandatory indemnification of all the Company's officers
and directors.

     Article VI of the Company's By-Laws provides generally for indemnification
of all of the Company's officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted
under the DGCL. Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was
serving at its request in such capacity in another corporation or business
association, against expenses

(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect
to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful.

     The Company also has a policy insuring it and its directors and officers
against certain liabilities.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers or person controlling the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
informed 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.
