(1) We calculated the values using the Black-Scholes stock option pricing
model under which we made the following assumptions: volatility of
98.4%, risk-free rate of return of 5.64%, dividend yield of 0% and an
expected life of 4.8 years. We did not adjust the model for
non-transferability, risk of forfeiture, or vesting restrictions. The
actual value (IF ANY) an executive officer receives from a stock option
will depend upon the amount by which the market price of the Intek
Global common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option on the date
of exercise. There can be no assurance that the amount stated as "grant
date present value" will actually be realized.

both. Mr. Shiver elected to receive the difference in cash in an amount
equal to $643,750. Under the terms of Mr. Shiver's employment agreement, Mr.
Shiver also has an option to purchase 800,000 shares of Intek Global common

terminated and (ii) the date the options would otherwise expire;

employment is terminated which shall become exercisable immediately
until the earlier of (i) the end of the 90-day period following the
date his employment is terminated and (ii) the date the options would
otherwise expire;

benefits under the plans, programs and/or arrangements of a
subsequent employer (such coverage and benefits to be determined on
a coverage-by-coverage or benefit-by-benefit basis); and
- such other or additional benefits, if any, as are provided under
applicable plans, programs and/or arrangements of Intek Global.
Upon a change-in-control, restrictions on transferability on the
Restricted Stock are removed and any unexercisable options granted pursuant
to Mr. Shiver's employment agreement become exercisable. Mr. Shiver also is
subject to restrictions prohibiting him from (i) engaging in competition
with Intek Global or any of our subsidiaries for a period commencing on

REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION FOR 1998 BY THE BOARD
The Compensation Committee of the Board administers Intek Global's
executive compensation program. The Committee has furnished the following
report on executive compensation for 1998:
10
<PAGE>
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
The Committee has designed Intek Global's executive compensation program
to support what we believe to be an appropriate relationship between
executive pay and the creation of stockholder value. To emphasize equity
incentives, we link a significant portion of executive compensation to the
market performance of Intek Global common stock. The objectives of our
program are:
- To support a pay-for-performance policy that differentiates bonus
amounts among all executives based on both their individual
performance and the performance of Intek Global;
- To align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of
stockholders through awards whose value over time depends upon the
market value of Intek Global's common stock; and
- To motivate key executives to achieve strategic business initiatives
and to reward them for their achievement.
We compensate our executives through base salary, bonus paid in cash,
and long-term incentive awards (USUALLY GRANTS OF STOCK OPTIONS).
We also provide our executives with employee benefits, such as health
benefits, similar to those typically offered to executives by the
corporations with which we compete for talent. Intek Global has also entered
into employment agreements with certain of our executive officers to provide
for certain payments and other benefits if they are terminated following a
change in control of Intek Global. (These agreements are discussed elsewhere
in this report.)
In 1998, we paid Mr. Shiver, Intek Global's Chief Executive Officer, in
accordance with his employment agreement, $300,000 in salary and $114,000 as
a bonus and we granted to him options to purchase shares of Intek Global
common stock.
DEDUCTIBILITY OF COMPENSATION
As part of the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993, Section 162(m) was
added to the Internal Revenue Code. Section 162(m) limits the deduction of
compensation paid to the chief executive officer and other named executive
officers to the extent the compensation of a particular executive exceeds $1
million, unless such compensation was based upon predetermined quantifiable
performance goals or paid pursuant to a written contract that was in effect

The Committee will continue to review and modify Intek Global's
compensation practices and programs as necessary to ensure Intek Global's
ability to attract and retain key executives while taking into account the
deductibility of compensation payments. Under the 1988 Stock Incentive Plan,
awards of stock options and performance stock are designed to satisfy the
deductibility requirements of Section 162(m). However, awards under the 1997
Performance and Equity Incentive Plan may not be fully deductible since, in
designing the Plan, the Committee felt it was important to retain flexibility
to reward senior management for extraordinary contributions that cannot
properly be recognized under a predetermined quantitative plan.

Since September 23, 1994, Intek Global redirected its business from
plastics manufacturing to the business of developing and managing 220 MHz SMR
(specialized mobile radio) Systems in the U.S. By May 15, 1995, Intek Global
sold substantially all of its assets relating to the plastics business. The
Nasdaq Non-Financial Stock Index (which includes manufacturing companies) is
used as a meaningful index against which to measure the Company's performance
prior to September 1994 since Intek Global was a plastics manufacturing
company. The Nasdaq Telecommunication Stocks Index is a meaningful index
against which to measure Intek Global's performance since September 1994 when
it redirected its business into the communications industry. As of September
30, 1998, a $100 investment made in September, 1994 would have increased to
$203.92 if invested in the Nasdaq Telecommunications Stock Index, and $187.97
invested in the Company.

</TABLE>
(1) "Beneficial ownership" is a technical term broadly defined by the SEC to
mean more than ownership in the usual sense. So, for example, you
"beneficially" own Intek Global common stock not only if you hold it
directly, but also if you indirectly (THROUGH A RELATIONSHIP, A POSITION
AS A DIRECTOR OR TRUSTEE, OR A CONTRACT OR UNDERSTANDING), have (OR
SHARE) the power to vote or sell the stock or the right to acquire it
within 60 days.
(2) 25,000,000 shares are owned by Securicor Communications Limited, a
corporation organized under the laws of England and Wales, and 937,042
shares are owned by Securicor International Limited, a corporation
organized under the laws of England and Wales. Securicor Communications
has the right, at any time, to convert $5.0 million of debt owed to it
by Intek Global into Intek Global common stock at a conversion price
equal to the average closing price of Intek Global common stock for the
20 trading days prior to December 16, 1998. Both Securicor
Communications and Securicor International are wholly owned direct
subsidiaries of Security Services plc which is itself a wholly owned
indirect subsidiary of Securicor plc, a corporation listed on the London
Stock Exchange. On December 3, 1996, Intek Global acquired all the
issued and outstanding common stock of Securicor Radiocoms Limited, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Securicor Communications, in exchange for
25,000,000 shares of Intek Global common stock. A change in control of
Intek Global occurred as a result of that transaction.
