Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
--------------------
1994 Compared with 1993
- -----------------------
On April 8, 1994 the Company announced the restructuring of its Military
Systems Group. The major component of the restructuring plan was the
consolidation of operations into one location (Codar Technology, Inc.) located
in Longmont, Colorado. The goal of the restructuring was and continues to be
to reduce costs and increase operating efficiencies. In conjunction with this
decision, the Company announced that it was closing its Hauppauge-based
Military Products division by September 30, 1994, and that most of the work
force reductions would be completed in early July. The work force reductions
and the closing of the facility were completed on schedule, but at year-end
the combined operation was performing at lower than anticipated revenue
levels.
The Hauppauge facility consisted of two buildings totalling approximately
86,000 square feet. On October 5, 1994 the smaller facility totalling 20,000
square feet was sold for approximately net book value. The larger facility
totalling 66,000 square feet is currently under contract to be sold. Most of
the Company's components business, particularly the USH and the NST products,
were manufactured at this location. The decision to close the Hauppauge
facility was brought about by the Navy's decision to significantly reduce
future purchases of NST and USH units. Without a guarantee of future
business, the Company decided it was not cost efficient to maintain multiple
manufacturing sites and work forces. Therefore, the Company approached the
Navy in April to give it the opportunity to make one final purchase prior to
the shut-down of the production capability. The Company subsequently received
a small order for additional USH and NST-I units.
At the beginning of 1994 the Military Products division employed approximately
190 people. The implementation of the restructuring plan began in April 1994.
It is anticipated that Codar will add approximately 70 jobs after the business
transition is completed, thus creating a net reduction of approximately 120
employees. Through December 31, 1994 Codar had added 54 employees.
During the first quarter of 1994 the Company recorded a $7.3 million
restructuring charge of which $3.1 million related to a non-cash write-off of
inventory and anticipated losses on the disposal of assets. The remaining
$4.2 million primarily consists of employee severance costs, lease termination
costs, and idle facility costs. $3.3 million out of the $4.2 million was
disbursed during 1994. The Company anticipates that it will receive
approximately $2.3 million over the next two years from the sale of the
Hauppauge real estate. The proceeds will be used to reduce the Company's term
debt.
The following table lists the major elements of the restructuring charge which
has been budgeted and the amount remaining as of December 31, 1994:

========== ==========
The transition of the Military Systems Group to Colorado placed strains on the
existing management information systems at Codar. During the second half of 1994
the Codar subsidiary reported sales at a level substantially below earlier
expectations. The sales shortfall was principally attributable to parts
shortages and increased product complexity, the adverse impact of which will
continue for at least the first half of 1995.
The nature of the Company's business is such that year to year changes in sales
levels are predominantly due to changes in shipping volume or product mix rather
than changing sales prices. Net sales in 1994 were $54.5 million, a 33% decrease
when compared with $81.0 million for the same period in 1993. The decrease
occurred in both segments, with the largest decrease in the components business
which was attributable to the decline in NST business.
The following chart provides the sales breakdown by product line:
In thousands of dollars 1994 1993 % Change
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Electronic Systems Segment
Systems $16,587 $15,870 5%
Component 19,006 50,662 (62%)
Service 10,737 4,670 130%
-----------------------------------
Total Electronic Systems Segment 46,330 71,202 (35%)
Telecommunications Segment
Line treatment 5,391 5,895 (9%)
Test equipment 2,799 3,927 (29%)
-----------------------------------
Total Telecommunications Segment 8,190 9,822 (17%)
-----------------------------------
TOTAL $54,520 $81,024 (33%)
==========================================================================
Sales in the Electronic Systems segment (net of intercompany eliminations)
decreased 35% to $46.3 million from $71.2 million in 1993. The sales decrease
<PAGE>
was primarily attributable to lower component revenue, partially offset by
higher service revenue. The decrease in component revenue was principally due
to the substantial completion in 1993 of the NST contract and a decrease in
TEMPEST printer product shipments. The increase in systems and service revenue
is primarily attributable to the inclusion of revenue from the Codar Division
which was acquired in October 1993.
In recent years the Company has reduced its dependency on the United States
defense budget by expanding its non-military business operations. However, the
Company still expects a substantial portion of 1995 sales to be directly to the
military or through prime contractors to the military. The Company is not aware
of any programs in which it participates that are specifically targeted for
termination or curtailment other than the previously discussed NST program. The
Company's products are utilized on many different U.S. Government programs which
reduces the adverse impact of cancelling a single specific program. However,
changes in future U.S. defense spending levels could impact the Company's future
sales volume.
Sales in the Telecommunications segment decreased 17% to $8.2 million as
compared to $9.8 million for the same period in 1993. The decrease in sales was
attributable to lower test equipment and line treatment revenues which were
adversely affected by lower orders due to cost cutting initiatives from the
regional Bell operating companies and foreign telecommunications companies. The
Company believes this decline is temporary and that order activity will increase
in 1995 as several new products nearing their completion of the development and
test phases become available. The Company has received favorable reviews on
several new line treatment products and in February 1995 it received its first
order in the amount of $2.0 million for a new line treatment product.
The gross margin percentage for 1994 was 18.8% as compared with 33.9% in 1993.
The gross margin percentage was adversely affected by an unfavorable mix of high
and low margin product deliveries, reduced shipping volume, continuing
inefficiencies as the Company transitions its military products manufacturing
operations from Hauppauge, New York to Longmont, Colorado and a $2.2 million
first quarter charge associated with cost overruns on two new printer products.
Lower margins are expected to continue at least during the first half of 1995 as
the Company continues its consolidation and repositioning efforts.
Selling expense for 1994 was $7.5 million as compared with $7.4 million in 1993.
This slight increase is attributable to the inclusion of the selling expenses
associated with Codar Technology which was acquired in October 1993 partially
offset by savings associated with the previously mentioned restructuring and
lower selling expenses due to lower sales volume.
General and administrative expenses for 1994 were $6.3 million as compared with
$5.8 million in 1993. This increase is primarily attributable to increased one-
time charges associated with the Company's previously mentioned restructuring
and the cost of running the Hauppauge facility for the first ten months of 1994
substantially below capacity. In 1995 the general administrative expenses should
be lower, as the full annual impact of the consolidation cost savings will be
realized.
<PAGE>
Company-sponsored research and development expenditures in 1994 were $3.2
million as compared with $5.0 million in 1993. This decrease is attributable to
savings associated with the previously mentioned restructuring and the change in
mix between Company-sponsored research and development and customer-funded
research and development. A key component to the Electronic Systems' segment
strategy is to focus on system integration business. Although systems
integration work by its nature will require significant engineering content,
such costs must be classified as contract costs and charged to cost of sales
as opposed to Company-sponsored research and development (IR&D). It is
anticipated that discretionary R&D expenditures will be curtailed in 1995 as the
Company attempts to conserve cash.
The Company had an operating loss of $14.6 million in 1994 as compared with
operating earnings of $9.0 million in 1993. The operating loss is primarily
attributable to lower sales volume and margins, the previously mentioned
restructuring and continuing inefficiencies as the Company transitions its
military products manufacturing operations from Hauppauge, New York to Longmont,
Colorado.
Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $0.7 million to $1.4
million in 1994. This increase is attributable to increased long-term debt,
short-term bank borrowings and an increase in the prime rate. In October 1993
the Company increased its long-term debt by $7.5 million in conjunction with the
acquisition of Codar Technology.
The effective income tax recovery rate is below the combined statutory federal
and state rates for 1994. The Company was unable to recognize a tax benefit to
its losses greater than the amount it could carry back due to uncertainties as
to whether or not a future benefit will be realized. Any earnings realized in
1995 will not be taxed at the statutory rate.
The Company had a net loss of $11.6 million in 1994 as compared with net
earnings of $5.5 million in 1993. Earnings (loss) per share were ($1.69) as
compared with $0.80 in 1993, based on a weighted average of 6.9 million and 6.8
million shares outstanding, respectively. The 1993 earnings per share and shares
outstanding figures have been adjusted to reflect the distribution of a 4% stock
dividend on March 14, 1994 to shareholders of record on February 25, 1994.
1993 Compared with 1992
- -----------------------
Sales for 1993 were $81.0 million, a 20% increase when compared with sales of
$67.3 million in 1992. The nature of the Company's business is such that year
to year changes in sales levels are predominantly due to changes in shipping
volume or product mix rather than changing sales prices.
Sales in the Electronic Systems segment (net of intercompany eliminations)
increased 15% to $71.2 million from $61.8 million in 1992. The increase in sales
was primarily attributable to the inclusion of revenue from the Company's recent
acquisitions, Lynwood Scientific Developments, Ltd. and Codar Technology, Inc.
Sales from these two new companies along with a modest increase in systems
integration sales more than offset the impact of the sale of the Electronics
Instrument product line in September 1992 and lower component sales. The
<PAGE>
decrease in component revenue was principally due to a decline in shipments of
the Company's two traditional products, the USH and the NST. Both products have
been a significant portion of the Company's sales over the past four years but
the contracts for both are near completion. In 1993, NST and USH sales accounted
for 37% of total revenue compared to 58% in 1992.
Although the Company's acquisitions have allowed it to reduce its dependency on
the United States defense budget, the Company still expects approximately 50% of
1994 sales to be directly to the military or through prime contractors to the
military. The Company is not aware of any programs in which it participates that
are specifically targeted for termination or curtailment other than the
previously discussed USH and NST programs. The Company's products are utilized
on many different U.S. Government programs. However, changed U.S. defense
spending levels could impact the Company's future sales volume.
Sales in the Telecommunications segment were $9.8 million in 1993 vs. $5.5
million in 1992. This increase is due to the inclusion of a full twelve months
of operations of Wilcom in 1993 as compared with five months in 1992. Sales in
the Telecommunications segment were adversely affected by lower orders in the
fourth quarter of 1993, due to cost cutting measures announced by several of the
regional Bell operating companies.
The gross margin percentage in 1993 increased to 33.9% from 32.4% in 1992. The
increase in gross margin was primarily attributable to a favorable mix of high
and low margin product deliveries as well as continued improvements in operating
efficiencies. The Company continually strives to reduce its costs and increase
its operating efficiencies. It is probable that the Company will not be able to
sustain this gross margin percentage in 1994 due to the completion of the NST
and USH contracts which historically had a higher gross margin percentage than
the other products the Company manufactures.
Selling expenses for 1993 were $7.4 million as compared with $5.8 million for
1992. This increase is attributable to the recent acquisitions and the opening
of an international sales office in late 1992, partially offset by the selling
expenses eliminated as a result of the sale of the Electronics Instrument
product line in September 1992.
General and administrative expenses for 1993 were $5.8 million as compared with
$3.8 million in 1992. This increase is primarily attributable to the recent
acquisitions and increased personnel and related costs associated with the
strengthening of the internal management organization.
Company sponsored research and development expenditures for 1993 were $5.0
million as compared with $3.7 million in 1992. This increase is primarily
attributable to the recent acquisitions and reflects the Company's intention to
continue to expand its business base internally as well as through acquisitions.
Operating earnings for 1993 increased 7% to $9.0 million as compared with $8.4
million in 1992. The increase in operating earnings was a result of increased
sales volume and improved margins offset by increases in selling, general and
administrative expense, research and development expense and amortization of
excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired.
<PAGE>
Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $0.3 million to $0.7
million in 1993. The increase in net interest expense is attributable to
increased debt and reduced short term investments due to the recent
acquisitions.
The effective income tax rate for 1993 was slightly lower than the statutory
rate due to a favorable income tax settlement. The 1992 effective rate
approximated the combined statutory federal and state rates.
Net earnings for the year 1993 were $5.5 million, an 8% increase compared with
$5.1 million in 1992. Included in net earnings was approximately $0.4 million
and $0.1 million for amortization of the excess of cost over the fair value of
net assets acquired for 1993 and 1992, respectively. Earnings per share in 1993
were $0.80, the same as in 1992, based on a weighted average of 6.8 million and
6.3 million shares outstanding, respectively. The 1992 and 1993 earnings per
share and shares outstanding figures have been adjusted to reflect the
distribution of a 4% stock dividend on March 26, 1993 to shareholders of record
on February 26, 1993, three for two stock split effected on September 17, 1993
for shareholders of record on August 16, 1993 and a 4% stock dividend on March
24, 1994 to shareholders of record on February 25, 1994.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company reported a net loss of $11.6 million in 1994, and incurred a
negative cash flow of $0.03 million from operations. Company operations have
historically provided a positive cash flow. However, the Company is currently
experiencing financial difficulties. At December 31, 1994, the Company was in
violation of certain covenants of its term loan agreements. Such violations were
subsequently waived by the applicable lending institutions.
At December 1, 1994 the Company's long-term secured debt totaled $16.3 million
of which current installments were $2.2 million. This compares to $14.9 million
at December 31, 1993 of which current installments were $4.2 million. The
Company's long-term borrowings, secured by plant and equipment, bear interest at
rates ranging from 70% of prime (8.5% at December 31, 1994) to 12.43%. With the
acquisition of Lynwood, the Company assumed a 5 year business term loan in the
amount of $0.3 million, with interest at 2% above the U.K. base rate (6.25% at
December 31, 1994).
On April 7, 1995 the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with its
two existing primary lending institutions. Under the terms of the new agreement,
the existing term debt and lines of credit were converted into a revolving
credit arrangement in exchange for a cash payment of $100,000 and the issuance
of 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The new agreement requires
quarterly payments, commencing in September 1995, of $875,000. The agreement,
unless extended, expires on January 15, 1996 at which time the remaining
principal balance of $13,425,000 is due. The agreement allows for an extended
maturity date to April 15, 1996 under certain conditions.
The repayment of the amount due will be dependent upon the Company's ability to
either obtain alternate financing or to restructure the remaining balance due.
The Company is considering several alternatives to achieve this, including the
sale of common or preferred stock, issuance of convertible debt, a business
<PAGE>
combination, the sale of all or a portion of the Company and establishment of a
borrowing relationship with other lending institutions. The Company has engaged
Needham & Company, Inc. as its investment advisor to assist in this process. The
ability of the Company to accomplish this at favorable terms will be somewhat
dependent upon the Company's operating results in 1995. The restructuring
actions taken in 1994 have significantly reduced the expense structure of the
Company. However, it is not certain that the Company will be able to achieve the
revenue level necessary to return to profitability.
At the present time, the Company is a net user of cash. The Company is taking
action to minimize its cash outlays by deferring or eliminating discretionary
expenses and capital asset purchases. In addition, the Company is working with
several consultants who are assisting in the correction of shipment problems
that currently exist at the Military Systems Group. The Company must increase
its shipment rate to an acceptable level within the near future, or obtain
additional financing, in order to meet its cash flow requirements during 1995.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.7 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993.
Cash used in operating activities amounted to $0.03 million as compared to $1.1
million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. In January 1995, the Company received
an initial tax refund of $4.0 million.
Cash of $0.07 million was used in investing activities during 1994. The major
components were comprised of $0.09 million for the purchase of property, plant
and equipment and $1.1 million in proceeds from the sale of assets. Management
expects total 1995 capital expenditures to be slightly higher than the 1994
expenditures. However, as previously indicated, the Company expects to receive
approximately $2.3 million from the sale of real estate over the next two years,
which will be applied against existing debt under the revolving credit
agreement.
During 1994, the Company made debt payments of $4.8 million and payments of
notes payable of $5.3 million and received proceeds from issuances of notes
payable of $8.6 million.
Inflation

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with traditional
historical accounting systems, and therefore do not reflect the effect of
inflation. The impact of changing prices on the financial statements is not
considered to be significant.

Independent Auditors' Report
----------------------------
The Stockholders and
Board of Directors
NAI Technologies, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of NAI
Technologies, Inc. (formerly North Atlantic Industries, Inc.) and subsidiaries
as listed in the accompanying index. In connection with our audit of the
consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement
schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial
statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NAI Technologies,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 10 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements,
the Company was not in compliance with its bank debt covenants at December 31,
1994. Accordingly, on April 12, 1995, the Company entered into a new secured
revolving credit agreement with its lenders. The new secured revolving credit
agreement expires in early 1996 at which time the Company will be required to
repay all outstanding amounts due. The Company is considering several
alternatives to meet this requirement, including the sale of common or preferred
stock, issuance of convertible debt, a business combination, the sale of all or
a portion of the Company or borrowing from other institutions.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
changed its method of accounting for income taxes in 1993 to adopt the
provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992
1. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated in consolidation.
Foreign Currency Translation: The financial statements and transactions
of the Company's foreign subsidiary are maintained in its functional
currency. For consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of the
Company's U.K. subsidiary have been translated at rates of exchange at the
end of the period. Revenues and expenses have been translated at the
weighted average rates of exchange in effect during each period.
Translation gains and losses are accumulated as a separate component of
shareholders' equity. Gains and losses resulting from transactions
denominated in a currency other than the entity's functional currency are
included in other operating expense in the consolidated statements of
operations. There were no significant gains or losses from foreign
currency transactions in the years presented.
Financial Statement Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been
made to prior years' financial statements to conform them to the 1994
presentation.
Cash equivalents: The Company classifies investments that are readily
convertible into cash, and have original maturities of three months or
less, as cash equivalents.
Inventories: Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a
first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Work in process is stated at total cost
incurred, reduced by estimated costs of units delivered, but not in excess
of net realizable value.
Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are recorded
at historical cost. Depreciation and amortization have been computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets: equipment and furniture and fixtures, generally -- 3 to 10 years,
and buildings -- 33 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the
shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvements or the lease
term.
F-7
<PAGE>
Excess of Cost over Fair Value of Net Assets Acquired: The excess of cost
over fair value of net assets acquired (goodwill) is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over a period of twenty years. The Company reviews
the significant assumptions which underlie the twenty year amortization
period on a quarterly basis and will shorten the amortization period if
considered necessary. The Company assesses the recoverability of this
intangible asset by determining whether the amortization of the goodwill
balance over its remaining life can be recovered through projected
undiscounted future results. Accumulated amortization was approximately
$1,100,000 and $480,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
amortization expense associated with these amounts is included in other
operating expense in the consolidated statements of earnings and amounted
to $620,000, $359,000 and $91,000 in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Revenue Recognition: Sales are recorded when title passes (either at
shipment or customer acceptance). In some limited cases, a sale may be
recorded upon the completion of a specific contractual task such as the
issuance of a test report. Cost of goods sold is based upon average
estimated cost per unit. Sales and profits on cost reimbursable contracts
are recognized as costs are incurred. Sales and estimated profits under
long-term contracts are recorded under the percentage of completion method
of accounting using the cost to cost method. Costs include direct
engineering and manufacturing costs, applicable overhead costs and special
tooling and test equipment. All selling, general and administrative
expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Warranty expense is
accrued based upon the historical relationship between sales and warranty
claims. Estimated losses are provided for in full when identified.
Income Taxes: Effective January 1, 1993 the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes". This statement requires the use of the asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Under
this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on
the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities for financial statement purposes and income tax purposes using
enacted rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or
settled. The Company previously accounted for income taxes in conformity
with SFAS No. 96. The adoption of this statement did not have a material
effect on the Company's 1993 financial statements and prior years'
financial statements were not restated.
Stock Dividends: On March 14, 1994 the Company issued 261,139 shares of
common stock in connection with a 4% stock dividend to shareholders of
record on February 25, 1994. On March 26, 1993 the Company issued 252,784
shares (as adjusted for stock dividend and stock split) of common stock in
connection with a 4% stock dividend to shareholders of record on February
26, 1993. On March 27, 1992 the Company issued 234,067 shares (as
adjusted for stock dividends and stock split) of common stock in
connection with a 4% stock dividend to shareholders of record on February
28, 1992. All references to earnings per share, stock option plan data
and common shares have been adjusted to give effect to the stock
dividends. The stock dividends were accounted for by transferring
F-8
<PAGE>
approximately $1,567,000, $2,268,000 and $1,172,000, respectively, from
retained earnings to common stock and capital in excess of par value.
Stock Split: On September 17, 1993 the Company issued 2,219,621 shares
(as adjusted for stock dividend) of common stock in connection with a
three for two stock split payable in the form of a 50% stock dividend to
shareholders of record on August 16, 1993. The stock split was accounted
for by transferring approximately $214,000 from additional paid in capital
to common stock. All references to earnings per share, stock option plan
data and common shares have been adjusted to give effect to the stock
split.
Earnings (loss) Per Share: Earnings (loss) per share is computed based
upon the weighted average number of common shares and common share
equivalents outstanding. Common share equivalents consist of dilutive
common stock options, common stock subscribed to under the Employee Stock
Purchase Plan and common stock warrants, net of assumed buy-back. The
computation of fully diluted earnings (loss) per share does not materially
differ from that presented in the consolidated statements of operations.
Earnings (loss) per share amounts are based on 6,850,000, 6,843,000 and
6,309,000 average shares outstanding (including common stock equivalents)
for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
2. ACQUISITIONS
On October 14, 1993, the Company acquired Codar Technology, Inc. via a
merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary with and into Codar for approximately
$6.5 million consisting of cash and notes payable. Additional costs
incurred pursuant to the transaction resulted in a final total acquisition
cost of approximately $7.6 million. The Company increased its term loan
borrowings by $7.5 million in conjunction with the acquisition. The
excess of the total acquisition cost over the fair value of net assets
acquired, amounting to approximately $5.4 million, is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 20 years.
On January 13, 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Lynwood Scientific Developments Limited (Lynwood), a U.K.
company, for approximately $4 million in cash, 330,497 shares (adjusted
for stock dividends and stock split) of common stock and warrants to
purchase 39,000 shares of common stock at a price of $8.89 per share. The
common stock was valued at approximately $1.1 million based on an
appraisal by an investment company. The cash portion of the purchase
price was paid from existing cash balances. The excess of the total
acquisition cost over the fair value of net assets acquired, amounting to
approximately $3.7 million, is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over 20 years.
F-9
<PAGE>
On August 7, 1992, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain
liabilities and obligations of the Wilcom Division of Superior TeleTec
Transmission Products, Inc. for approximately $6.0 million in cash and
assumed liabilities of approximately $1.0 million. Additional costs
incurred pursuant to the transaction resulted in a total acquisition cost
of approximately $8.0 million. The acquisition cost was funded by
existing cash balances and $5.0 million of additional borrowings under the
Company's long-term credit agreement with its two principal banks. The
excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired, amounting to
approximately $1.3 million, is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over 20 years.
On May 6, 1992, the Company acquired certain assets of KMS Advanced
Products, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of KMS Industries, Inc., for
approximately $1.7 million in cash and assumed liabilities of
approximately $0.4 million. Additional costs pursuant to the transaction
resulted in a total acquisition cost of approximately $2.5 million. The
Company may also be required to pay an additional $1 million based on the
cumulative net sales of the purchased business through May 1995. Through
December 1994 the Company has paid approximately $0.5 million, based on
sales through September 1994. The purchase price was paid from the
Company's cash balances. The excess of cost over fair value of net assets
acquired, amounting to approximately $0.8 million, is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 20 years.
Each of the acquisitions was accounted for as a purchase and the operating
results of each are included in the consolidated statements of operations
from the date of acquisition.
The following unaudited pro-forma consolidated results of operations
assume that these four acquisitions occurred on January 1, 1992 and
reflect the historical operations of the purchased businesses adjusted for
increased interest expense as a result of borrowings, reduced interest
income as a result of cash utilization and increased depreciation and
amortization net of applicable income taxes resulting from the
acquisitions.

Net sales $92,870 $110,661
Net earnings $ 3,894 $ 4,922
Earnings per share $ 0.57 $ 0.74

The pro-forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the
actual results of operations that would have occurred had the purchases
been made at the beginning of the period, or of results which may occur in
the future.

8. RESTRUCTURING
On April 8, 1994 the Company announced that as part of its transition from
the design and manufacture of computer peripherals toward both producing
and integrating computer systems, it would close its Hauppauge, New York
based Military Products Division and transfer the division's operations to
its Codar facility in Longmont, Colorado. As a direct result of the
above, during the first quarter of 1994 the Company recorded a $9,500,000
charge, of which $7,300,000 was classified as a restructuring charge and
$2,200,000 was charged to cost of sales. The major components of the
restructuring charge relate to employee expense ($2,731,000), disposition
of assets ($2,000,000), inventory write downs on discontinued products
($1,120,000), idle facility costs ($590,000) and lease termination costs
($370,000). The major components of the $2.2 million charge pertain to
inventory write-offs related mostly to excess start-up costs associated
with the NST-II production. The transfer of operations to Colorado was
substantially completed by the fourth quarter of 1994.
At December 31, 1994 there was a remaining liability of $981,000,
comprised principally of remaining employee severance ($448,000) which is
being paid weekly, idle facility expense ($248,000) and lease termination
costs ($205,000).

At December 31, 1994, the Company was not in compliance with certain
covenants under its secured term loan agreement. Such violations were
subsequently waived by the Company's lenders.
During 1994, the Company had secured lines of credit with its two
principal lending institutions amounting to $6,000,000 which bear interest
at the prime rate (8.5% at December 31, 1994). At December 31, 1994
borrowing under these lines amounted to $6,000,000 and are classified as
long-term notes payable in the accompanying balance sheet. There were no
borrowings under these lines in 1993 and 1992. The maximum month-end
amount outstanding under these lines during the year ended December 31,
1994 was $6,000,000. The average short-term borrowings for 1994 was
$4,275,000 at a weighted average interest rate of 7.59%. The amounts due
on the lines of credit were made part of the revolving loan agreement
mentioned above.
On April 12, 1995 the Company entered into a secured revolving credit
agreement with its lenders which replaced its then existing agreements.
Under the terms of the new agreement, the existing term debt and lines of
credit which totaled $15,175,000 were converted into a revolving credit
line in exchange for a cash payment of $100,000 and the issuance of
250,000 shares of common stock (valued at approximately $478,000). The
agreement expires on January 15, 1996 at which time the Company can extend
the maturity to April 15, 1996, if certain conditions are met, or repay
all outstanding amounts due. Such payment is expected to approximate
$13,425,000 ($12,500,000 at April 15, 1996) at that time. The repayment
of the amount due will be dependent upon the Company's ability to either
obtain alternate financing or to restructure the remaining balance due.
The Company is considering several alternates to achieve this, including
the sale of common or preferred stock, issuance of convertible debt, a
business combination, the sale of all or a portion of the Company and
establishment of a borrowing arrangement with new lending institutions.
The ability of the Company to accomplish this at favorable terms will be
somewhat dependent upon the Company's results of operations in 1995. The
term loan agreement requires that the Company maintain certain minimum
levels of tangible net worth, current ratio and quick ratio. It also
limits capital expenditures and prohibits the payment of cash dividends.
The Company's U.K. subsidiary has a credit facility (sterling overdraft)
with a U.K. bank. The credit facility amounts to 'L'600,000 (approximately
$938,000) and bears interest at 2 1/4% above the U.K. base rate (6 1/4% at
December 31, 1994). This facility is renewable in April 1995. The
maximum month end borrowings under the credit facility during the years
ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 were 'L'355,000 and 'L'653,000 (approximately
$555,000 and $966,000, respectively). The average short term borrowings
for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 were 'L'89,000 and 'L'254,000
(approximately $139,000 and $376,000, respectively). The weighted average
interest rate during the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 was 7.23%
and 8.52%, respectively.

13. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company has two stock option plans -- the 1991 Stock Option Plan and
the 1993 Stock Option Plan for Directors -- which together cover 773,448
shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to the plans to key
employees and directors. In addition there are 111,768 outstanding
options under the Company's 1982 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan which
terminated in July 1992. Subsequent to July 1992, no further grants could
be made under such plan.
The 1991 Stock Option Plan covers 617,448 shares. Options under the 1991
Stock Option Plan are non-qualified stock options and are granted at the
option price fixed by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
but in no event may the option price be less than the fair market value of
a share of common stock on the date of grant. Options under the 1991
Stock Option Plan have such term as is fixed by the Compensation Committee
but no option may be exercised during the first year after its date of
grant or after the expiration of ten years from its date of grant.
The 1993 Stock Option Plan for Directors covers 156,000 shares. Options
under the Directors' Plan are non-qualified stock options and are granted
in increments of 1,560 shares upon each non-employee director's election
or re-election to the Board of Directors. The option price is equal to
the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant.
Options are granted for a term of ten years and become exercisable eleven
months after their date of grant. In no event may an option be exercised
after the expiration of the term of such option.
Full payment of the exercise price under all stock option plans may be
made in cash or in shares of common stock valued at the fair market value
thereof on the date of exercise. The Company's policy is that such shares
must have been acquired by the optionee at least six months prior to the
exercise date. In 1994, all payments were made in cash. In 1993 and 1992,
38,345 and 65,978 shares, respectively, were received as payment for the
exercise price of options. In 1993 and 1992, 36,288 and 53,497 shares,
respectively, were withheld from employee stock option exercises to cover
required income tax withholdings. Such shares, with a fair market value
of $338,000 and $303,000, respectively, were retired by the Company.

14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Pension Plan
The Company has a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering
all eligible employees. The plan provides for normal retirement at age
65, or at least age 62 with 30 years of service, and optional early
retirement.
In December 1993, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the
pension plan which resulted in the freezing of all future benefits under
the plan as of January 3, 1994. As a result, in 1993 the Company
recognized a gain of $362,000 which substantially offset the pension
expense for 1993. Beginning in 1994, future pension expense is expected
to be minimal.
The Company's funding policy is to make annual contributions to the extent
such contributions are actuarially determined and tax deductible. Pension
expense (income) for 1994, 1993 and 1992 was $(5,000), $367,000 and
$382,000, respectively.
The following table sets forth the funded status of the Company's defined
benefit pension plan at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992:

Net amortization and deferral (257) (101) (136)
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net pension expense $ ( 5) $ 367 $ 382
============================================================================
Prepaid pension costs are included in other non-current assets. The
actuarial computations assume a discount rate on benefit obligations of
F-22
<PAGE>
7.25% in 1994, 6% in 1993 and 8% in 1992. The expected long-term rate of
return on plan assets was 6% in 1994 and 9% in 1993 and 1992. Pension
Plan assets are primarily invested in short and intermediate term cash
investments, corporate bonds and common and preferred stock. The assumed
rate of compensation increase was 6% for 1992 and is not applicable
thereafter.
In 1991 the Company adopted the NAI Technologies Supplemental Retirement
Plan which is a non-qualified, unfunded pension plan under which the
Company will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain officers. The
expense related to this plan amounted to $281,000, $232,000 and $159,000
in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The pension cost for this plan is
based on substantially the same actuarial methods and economic assumptions
as those used for the defined benefit pension plan. Such benefits will be
paid from the Company's assets and not from retirement plan assets.
The following table sets forth the funded status and cost components of
the Company's supplemental retirement plan at December 31, 1994, 1993 and
1992:

Retirement Savings Plan
The Company has a voluntary Retirement Savings Plan for all eligible
employees which provides for basic (up to 15% of compensation) employee
contributions. In 1992 and 1993, it was the Company's policy to provide
a matching provision equal to 100% of the first 3% of the employee's basic
contribution. In December 1993, the Board of Directors approved an
amendment to the Retirement Savings Plan which increased the matching
provision to 100% of the first 3% and 50% of the second 3% of the
employee's basic contribution effective January 3, 1994. Effective August
20, 1994, the Board of Directors suspended the matching provisions. Plan
participants may invest in a combination of equity, fixed income and money
market funds. The Company's 1994, 1993 and 1992 contributions under the
plan amounted to $365,143, $386,000 and $341,000, respectively.
The plan also provides for a discretionary profit sharing contribution as
determined by the Board of Directors, which is contributed to each of the
participant's individual accounts. There was no contribution for 1994.
For the years 1993 and 1992, the Company provided $128,000 and $240,000,
respectively, for a profit sharing contribution.

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to certain legal actions
which arise in the normal course of business. It is management's belief
that these actions will not have a material effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position.
The Company and its subsidiaries lease office and manufacturing
facilities, automobiles, computers and other equipment under various
non-cancellable operating leases.
Future minimum rental commitments for leases with non-cancellable terms in
excess of one year are as follows:
(in thousands) Amount
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
1995 $ 1,763,000
1996 1,515,000
1997 1,134,000
1998 1,065,000
1999 941,000
2000 and thereafter 4,837,000
----------
Total minimum lease payments $11,255,000
===========
With the acquisition of Lynwood, the Company assumed a 25 year operating
lease for office and manufacturing facilities. Annual future minimum
lease payments through the year 2014, which are included in the above
table, amount to approximately $316,000 per year.
Rental expense amounted to $1,170,000, $1,132,000 and $385,000 in 1994,
1993 and 1992, respectively. There was no sublease income in these
periods.
Most leases provide for additional payments of real estate taxes,
insurance and other operating expenses applicable to the property,
generally over a base period level. Total rental expense includes such
base period expenses and the additional expense payments as part of the
minimum lease payments.
In June 1994, a class action lawsuit was filed in the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Company
and certain of its officers and directors, alleging violations of the
Federal securities laws as a result of certain misrepresentations and
omissions of fact in public statements issued by the Company during the
second half of 1993, which allegedly had the effect of artificially
inflating the trading price of the Company's shares of stock. At the
present time the plaintiff is seeking unspecified damages. Management
F-28
<PAGE>
believes this litigation is without merit and intends to defend such
action vigorously. Management also believes that a finding of ultimate
liability against the Company, if any, whether directly or as a result of
the indemnification of officers who are also defendants would not have a
materially adverse effect on its financial position.

regarding capital adequacy, or any change in any of the foregoing or in the
interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or any lending office of such
Bank) or any Bank's holding company with any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on such Bank's capital or on the capital of such Bank's holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement pursuant hereto to a level
below that which such Bank or such Bank's holding company could have achieved if
this Agreement had not been entered into (taking into account such Bank's
policies and the policies of such Bank's holding company with respect to capital
adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to
time the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Bank or such Bank's holding company for any such reduction
suffered.
(b) A certificate of each Bank setting forth the calculation
of such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Bank or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) above shall
be delivered to the Borrower at the time of a making of a demand for payment
pursuant to paragraph (a) above and from time to time thereafter and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay each Bank the amount
shown as due on any such certificate delivered to it within 10 days after its
receipt of the same. Any Bank receiving any such payment shall promptly make a
refund thereof to the Borrower if the law, regulation, guideline or change in
circumstances giving rise to such payment is subsequently deemed or held to be
invalid or inapplicable.
(c) Failure on the part of any Bank to demand compensation
for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or
reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a
waiver of such Bank's right to demand compensation with respect to such period
or any other period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each
Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability
of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall
have occurred or been imposed.
SECTION 2.11. PRO RATA TREATMENT, ETC. All payments and
repayments of principal and interest in respect of the Loans (except as provided
in Section 2.10) shall be made pro rata among the Banks in accordance with the
then outstanding principal amount of the Loans hereunder and all payments of
Commitment Fees shall be made pro rata among the Banks in accordance with their
Commitments. All payments by the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes shall be
(i) net of any tax applicable to the Borrower and (ii) made in
19
<PAGE>
Dollars in immediately available funds at the office of each Bank by 12:00 noon,
New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall be due. Interest in
respect of any Loan hereunder shall accrue from and including the date of such
Loan to but excluding the date on which such Loan is paid in full.
SECTION 2.12. TAXES. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower
hereunder and under the Notes shall be made free and clear of and without
deduction for any and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions,
charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i)
taxes imposed on or measured by the net income or overall gross receipts of any
Bank (or any transferee or assignee thereof, including a participation holder
(any such entity being called a "Transferee")) and franchise taxes imposed on
any Bank (or Transferee) by the United States or any jurisdiction under the laws
of which any such Bank (or Transferee) is organized or any political subdivision
thereof or by any other jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing
authority therein other than a jurisdiction in which such Bank would not be
subject to tax but for the execution and performance of this Agreement and (ii)
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or liabilities
("Amounts") with respect to payments hereunder or under the Notes to a Bank (or
Transferee) in accordance with laws in effect on the later of the date of this
Agreement and the date such Bank (or Transferee) becomes a Bank (or Transferee,
as the case may be), but not excluding, with respect to such Bank (or
Transferee), any increase in such Amounts solely as a result of any change in
such laws occurring after such later date or any Amounts that would not have
been imposed but for actions (other than actions contemplated by this Agreement
or the Notes) taken by the Borrower after such later date (all such nonexcluded
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If the Borrower shall be required by law to
deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Banks
(or any Transferee), (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount
necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Bank (or
Transferee, as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall
make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted
to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law.
(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any current or
future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes,
charges, assessments or similar levies that arise from any payment made
hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with
respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to
as "Other Taxes").
20
<PAGE>
(c) The Borrower will indemnify each Bank (or Transferee) for
the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes paid by such Bank (or Transferee) and
any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or
with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or
legally asserted by the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental
Authority. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date any
Bank (or Transferee) makes written demand therefor but in no event prior to the
date of payment by such Bank (or Transferee) of the amount paid by such Bank (or
Transferee) as to which such demand is being made. If a Bank (or Transferee)
shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund in respect of Taxes
or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to
this subsection, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the availability of
such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the
Borrower, apply for such refund at the Borrower's expense. If any Bank (or
Transferee) receives a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which
it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, it shall
promptly notify the Borrower of such refund and shall, within 30 days after
receipt of a request by the Borrower (or promptly upon receipt, if the Borrower
has requested application for such refund pursuant hereto), repay such refund to
the Borrower (to the extent of amounts that have been paid by the Borrower under
this Section with respect to such refund plus interest that is received by the
Bank (or Transferee) as part of the refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
of such Bank and without additional interest thereon; provided that the
Borrower, upon the request of such Bank (or Transferee), agrees to return such
refund (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Bank (or Transferee)
in the event such Bank (or Transferee) is required to repay such refund. Nothing
contained in this subsection (c) shall require any Bank (or Transferee) to make
available any of its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes
that it deems to be confidential).
(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or
Other Taxes withheld by the Borrower in respect of any payment to any Bank (or
Transferee), the Borrower will furnish to such Bank, at its address referred to
on the signature pages hereof, the original or a certified copy of a receipt
evidencing payment thereof or, if such receipt has not yet been received from
the appropriate Governmental Authority after a reasonable effort by the Borrower
to obtain such receipt, a copy of the transmittal letter of the Borrower making
such payment and an undertaking by the Borrower to continue to seek to obtain
such receipt.
(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement
contained herein, the agreements and obligations contained in this Section shall
survive the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all Loans made
hereunder.
21
<PAGE>
(f) Each Bank (or Transferee) that is organized under the laws
of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, prior to the immediately
following due date of any payment by the Borrower hereunder, deliver to the
Borrower such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Code
or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto, including (A) Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8 or W-9 and (B) Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or Form 4224
and any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1441-1, 1.1441-4 or 1.1441-6(c) or any subsequent version
thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Bank
(or Transferee) establishing that such payment is (i) not subject to United
States Federal withholding tax under the Code because such payment is
effectively connected with the conduct by such Bank (or Transferee) of a trade
or business in the United States or (ii) totally exempt from United States
Federal withholding tax or subject to a reduced rate of such tax under a
provision of an applicable tax treaty. Unless the Borrower has received forms or
other documents satisfactory to them indicating that such payments hereunder or
under the Notes are not subject to United States Federal withholding tax or are
subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower
shall withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.
(g) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional
amounts to any Bank (or Transferee) in respect of United States Federal
withholding tax pursuant to subsection (a) above if the obligation to pay such
additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank (or
Transferee) to comply with the provisions of subsection (f) above.
(h) Any Bank (or Transferee) claiming any additional amounts
payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent
with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document
requested by the Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable
lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for
or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue
and would not, in the sole reasonable determination of such Bank, be otherwise
materially disadvantageous to such Bank (or Transferee).
SECTION 2.13. COMMITMENT FEE. The Borrower shall pay to the
Banks a commitment fee (the "Commitment Fee") for the period commencing on the
Closing Date and ending on the Termination Date or the earlier date of
termination of the Commitment, computed (on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the rate of three-eighths of one
percent (3/8%) per annum on the average daily Unused Total Commitment. Such
Commitment Fee, to the extent then accrued, shall be payable (x) quarterly, in
arrears, on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December,
(y) on the Termination Date and (z) as provided in
22
<PAGE>
Sections 2.07 and 2.08 hereof, upon any reduction or termination in whole or in
part of the Total Commitment. All Commitment Fees shall, upon payment, become
non-refundable.
SECTION 2.14. RIGHT OF SET-OFF. Subject to the provisions of
Section 7.01, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, each Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and
other indebtedness at any time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the
account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower
now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or
not such Bank shall have made any demand under any Loan Document and although
such obligations may be unmatured. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the
Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Bank, as the case
may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this
Section are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Bank may have
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.
III. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF BORROWER
In order to induce the Banks to restructure the Existing Obligations
and continue to extend credit to the Borrower by the making of Loans, the
Borrower represents and warrants as follows:
SECTION 3.01. ORGANIZATION AND AUTHORITY. The Borrower (i) is
a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of New York and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and
is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify
would have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operations,
business, properties or assets of the Borrower; (ii) has the requisite corporate
power and authority to effect the transactions contemplated hereby, and by the
other Loan Documents, and (iii) has all requisite corporate power and authority
and the legal right to own, pledge, mortgage and operate its properties, and to
conduct its business as now or currently proposed to be conducted.
SECTION 3.02. DUE EXECUTION. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Borrower of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party
(i) are within the corporate powers of the Borrower, have been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate action, including the consent of shareholders where
required, and do not (A) contravene the charter or by-laws of the Borrower, (B)
violate any law (including, without limitation, the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) or regulation (including, without limitation,
23
<PAGE>
Regulations G, T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System), or any order or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality,
(C) conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any
material indenture, mortgage or deed of trust or any material lease, agreement
or other instrument binding on the Borrower or any of its properties, or (D)
result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of the
property of any of the Borrower other than the Liens granted pursuant to this
Agreement and the Security Documents to which it is or will become a party; and
(ii) do not require the consent, authorization by or approval of or notice to or
filing or registration with any Governmental Authority. This Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by the Borrower. This Agreement is, and each of the
other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is or will be a party, when delivered
hereunder or thereunder, will be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 3.03. STATEMENTS MADE. The written statements which
have been made by the Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any
financial statements delivered pursuant hereto or thereto (other than to the
extent that any such statements constitute projections), taken as a whole and in
light of the circumstances in which made, contain no untrue statement of a
material fact and do not omit to state a material fact necessary to make such
statements not misleading; and, to the extent that any such written statements
constitute projections, such projections were prepared in good faith on the
basis of assumptions, methods, data, tests and information believed by the
Borrower to be valid and accurate at the time such projections were furnished to
the Banks.
SECTION 3.04. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The Borrower has
furnished the Banks with copies of the unaudited consolidated financial
statement and schedules of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for
its fiscal year ended December 31, 1994. Such financial statements present
fairly the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the
Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as a whole as of such date and for
such period; and in the case of the unaudited financial statements referred to
above such balance sheet and the notes thereto disclose all liabilities, direct
or contingent, of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the date
thereof required to be disclosed by GAAP and such financial statements were
prepared in accordance with GAAP, subject to normal year end adjustments. Except
as set forth in that certain Certificate delivered by a Financial Officer on or
before the Closing Date delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(q), since December
31, 1994, there has been no material adverse change in the operations, business,
properties, assets, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the
Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 3.05. OWNERSHIP OF PROPERTY; LIENS. The Borrower and
each Subsidiary has good and marketable title to all of its properties and
assets, real and personal, and there are no Liens (including Liens or retained
security titles of conditional vendors) of any nature whatsoever on the assets
of the Borrower, other than as permitted under Section 6.01 hereof. The Borrower
is not party to any contract, agreement, lease or instrument the performance of
which, either unconditionally or upon the happening of an event, will result in
or require the creation of a Lien on any assets (including, without limitation,
inventory) of the Borrower or otherwise result in a violation of this Agreement
except as expressly permitted hereunder.
SECTION 3.06. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. (a) (i) The operations of
the Borrower comply in all material respects with all applicable environmental,
health and safety statutes and regulations, including, without limitation,
regulations promulgated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (42
U.S.C. ss.ss.6901 et seq.); (ii) none of the operations of the Borrower is the
subject of any Federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial
action involving a material expenditure is needed to respond to a release of any
Hazardous Waste or Hazardous Substance (as such terms are defined in any
applicable state or Federal environmental law or regulations) into the
environment; and (iii) the Borrower does not have any material contingent
liability in connection with any release of any Hazardous Waste or Hazardous
Substance into the environment.
(b) The Borrower is not, to the best of its knowledge, in
violation of any law, rule or regulation, the violation of which would have a
material adverse effect on the financial condition, operations, business,
prospects, properties or assets of the Borrower taken as a whole, or in default
with respect to any judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental
Authority.
SECTION 3.07. INSURANCE. All policies of insurance of any
kind or nature owned by or issued to the Borrower, including, without
limitation, policies of life, fire, theft, product liability, public liability,
property damage, other casualty, employee fidelity, workers' compensation,
employee health and welfare, title, property and liability insurance, are in
full force and effect and are of a nature and provide such coverage as is
sufficient and as is customarily carried by companies of the size and character
of the Borrower.
SECTION 3.08. USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds of the Loans
shall be used for general working capital purposes.
SECTION 3.09. LITIGATION. There are no unstayed actions,
suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened
against or affecting the Borrower, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary or any of its
or their properties
25
<PAGE>
before any court or governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency
or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, which, if determined adversely to the
Borrower, would have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth on Schedule
I.
SECTION 3.10. SUBSIDIARIES. The Borrower has no Subsidiaries
or Affiliates other than the Guarantors and Lynwood.
SECTION 3.11. TAXES. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has
filed or caused to be filed all tax returns in which the liability for taxes is
in excess of $75,000 and which to the knowledge of the Borrower are required to
be filed, and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or
on any assessments made against each of them (other than those being contested
in good faith by appropriate proceedings for which adequate reserves have been
provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiary, as the case may be),
and no tax liens have been filed and, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, no
claims are being asserted with respect to any taxes.
SECTION 3.12. FILING OF STATEMENTS AND REPORTS. Each of the
Borrower and each Subsidiary has filed copies of all statements and reports
which, to the knowledge of the Borrower, are required to be filed with any
governmental authority, agency, commission, board or bureau and for which the
failure to so file would have a material adverse effect on the condition,
financial or otherwise, of the Borrower or such Subsidiary.
SECTION 3.13. ERISA. Subject to the events described in
Schedule III hereto, no Reportable Event has occurred during the immediately
preceding six-year period with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied
and has been administered in all material respects with applicable provisions of
ERISA and the Code. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single
Employer Plan maintained by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Commonly
Controlled Entity (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan) did not,
as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed the value of the
assets of such Plan allocable to such benefits. Neither the Borrower nor any
Subsidiary nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has during the immediately
preceding six-year period participated in any Multiemployer Plans. The present
value (determined using actuarial and other assumptions which are reasonable in
respect of the benefits provided and the employees participating) of the
liability of the Borrower, each Subsidiary and each Commonly Controlled Entity
for post retirement benefits to be provided to their current and former
employees under Plans which are welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section
3(1) of ERISA) does not, in the aggregate, exceed the assets under all such
Plans allocable to such benefits by an amount in excess of $200,000.
26
<PAGE>
SECTION 3.14. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS. (a) None of the real
property owned or leased by the Borrower or any Subsidiary (such property, the
"Real Property") contains, or to the best knowledge of the Borrower, has
contained, any hazardous or toxic waste or substances or underground storage
tanks, except as is customary in the industry in which the Borrower is engaged
and in compliance with applicable laws.
(b) The Real Property is in compliance with applicable
Federal, state and local environmental standards and requirements
affecting such Real Property, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower,
there is no environmental condition which could interfere with the
continued use of the Real Property.
(c) No notice of violations or advisory action by regulatory
agencies regarding environmental control matters or permit compliance
is outstanding.
(d) Hazardous waste has not been transferred from any of the
Real Property to any other location which is not in compliance with all
applicable environmental laws, regulations or permit requirements.
(e) With respect to the Real Property, there is no pro-
ceeding, governmental administrative action or judicial proceeding
pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary,
contemplated under any Federal, state or local law regulating the
discharge of hazardous or toxic materials or substances into the
environment, to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is named as a
party.
SECTION 3.15. MATERIAL AGREEMENTS. Schedule IV accurately and
completely lists all (i) material leases, contracts and agreements and (ii)

agreements or commitments of any nature relating to the capital stock of the
Borrower (the "Equity-Related Agreements") to which the Borrower or any
Subsidiary and any other Person is a party, including those leases, contracts,
agreements and Equity-Related Agreements which are presently in effect and
involve the conduct of the Borrower and its respective Subsidiaries' businesses

VIII. THE AGENTS; ADMINISTRATION OF LOANS
SECTION 8.01. DUTIES. The general administration of this
Agreement and the Notes shall be by the Banks. The Administrative Agent shall
have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the remaining
Loan Documents, other than with respect to the setting of the Prime Rate. The
Collateral Agent shall have only the duties and responsibilities as are set
forth in Sections 8.03, 8.04, and 8.05 and in the Security Documents. Any
amounts received by the Banks in connection with this Agreement or the Notes
(other than amounts to which the Banks are entitled pursuant to Sections 9.05
and 9.06), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this
Agreement shall be applied, first, in accordance with each Bank's Commitment
Percentage to pay accrued but unpaid Commitment Fees and second, in accordance
with each Bank's Commitment Percentage to pay accrued but unpaid interest and
the principal balance outstanding on each Note in the order of maturities.
SECTION 8.02. SHARING OF SETOFFS. Each Bank agrees that if it
shall, through the exercise of a right of banker's lien, setoff or counterclaim
against the Borrower, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under
Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from,
or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Bank under any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of its Loans as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans is
proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans of any other Bank (a)
it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon
purchased) from such other Bank a participation in the Loans of such other Bank,
so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Bank's
47
<PAGE>
Loans and its participation in Loans of the other Banks shall be in the same
proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then
outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans prior to the obtaining of such
payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to the
obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time
to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Banks share such payment
pro-rata, provided that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered
or otherwise set aside such purchase of participations shall be rescinded
(without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing
arrangements and agrees that any Bank holding (or deemed to be holding) a
participation in a Loan may exercise any and all rights of banker's lien, setoff
or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such
Bank as fully as if such Bank held a Note and was the original obligee thereon,
in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 8.03. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF COLLATERAL AGENT. The Banks
hereby designate Chemical Bank as Collateral Agent to act as specified herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Each Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes, and
each holder of any Note by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed
irrevocably to authorize, the Collateral Agent to take such action on its behalf
under the provisions of this Agreement, the Security Documents, the other Loan
Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein
and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder
as are specifically delegated to or required of the Collateral Agent by the
terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto.
SECTION 8.04. CERTAIN RIGHTS OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT. (a)
Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section and the first
sentence of Section 8.05, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the direction of (i)
one or more Banks upon the occurrence of the Termination Date or (ii) the
Required Banks, take all action specified in this Agreement, the Security
Documents and the other Loan Documents in respect of the Collateral and the
enforcement and preservation of the Banks' rights under the Loan Documents as
directed by such parties, provided, that such action is authorized by the Loan
Documents and not prohibited by applicable law.
(b) If the Collateral Agent shall request instructions from
the Required Banks or one or more of the Banks, as the case may be, with respect
to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Collateral
Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Banks in the instances
where the consent or direction of the Required Banks is required, one Bank where
the consent or direction of one of the Banks is required and all of the Banks
where the consent or direction of all of the Banks is required, as the case may
be; and the Collateral
48
<PAGE>
Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.
Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank or the holder of any Note shall have any
right of action whatsoever against the Collateral Agent as a result of the
Collateral Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other
Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Banks or one
or more of the Banks, as the case may be.
SECTION 8.05. RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. Upon the direction of
all of the Banks, the Collateral Agent shall release any Lien in any of the

Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to release any lien in the collateral in
connection with the sale of any of the Borrower's assets permitted under Section
6.09.
SECTION 8.06. AGREEMENT OF REQUIRED BANKS. Upon any occasion
requiring or permitting an approval, consent, waiver, election or other action
on the part of the Required Banks, action shall be taken by the Collateral Agent
for and on behalf or for the benefit of all Banks upon the direction of the
Required Banks, and any such action shall be binding on all Banks. No amendment,
modification, consent or waiver shall be effective except in accordance with the
provisions of Section 9.10.
SECTION 8.07. LIABILITY OF AGENT. (a) Each of the Agents when
acting on behalf of the Banks, may execute any of its respective duties under
this Agreement by or through any of its respective officers, agents, and
employees, and none of the Agents and their respective directors, officers,
agents, or employees shall be liable to the Banks or any of them for any action
taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to the Banks or to
any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for
any loss, unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Each of the Agents and their respective directors, officers, agents,
and employees shall in no event be liable to the Banks or to any of them for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by them pursuant to instructions received by
them from the Required Banks or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected
by it. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Agents, nor any of their
respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be responsible to any
Bank for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency,
or enforceability of, or for any statement, warranty, or representation in, this
Agreement, any Loan Document or any related agreement, document or order, or
shall be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance
or observance by the Borrower of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or
agreements of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents.
(b) None of the Agents nor any of their respective directors,
officers, employees, or agents shall have any
49

responsibility to the Borrower on account of the failure or delay in performance
or breach by any Bank or by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this
Agreement or the Notes or any of the Loan Documents or in connection herewith or
therewith.
(c) The Agents, in their respective capacities, shall be
entitled to rely on any communication, instrument, or document reasonably
believed by such person to be genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent
by a person or persons believed by such person to be the proper person or
persons, and such person shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal counsel,
independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts
selected by such person.
SECTION 8.08. REIMBURSEMENT AND INDEMNIFICATION. Each Bank
agrees (i) to reimburse (x) the Agents for such Bank's Commitment Percentage of
any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Banks under this
Agreement, the Notes and any of the Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for
services rendered on behalf of the Banks, and any other expense incurred in
connection with the operations or enforcement thereof not reimbursed by the
Borrower and (y) the Agents for such Bank's Commitment Percentage of any
expenses of the Agent incurred for the benefit of the Banks that the Borrower
has agreed to reimburse pursuant to Section 9.05 and has failed to so reimburse
and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Agents and any of their respective
directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in the amount of its
proportionate share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,

disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by, or asserted against any of them in any way relating to or arising out of
this Agreement, the Notes or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or
omitted by any of them under this Agreement, the Notes or any of the Loan
Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower (except such as shall
result from their respective gross negligence or willful misconduct).
SECTION 8.09. RIGHTS OF AGENTS. It is understood and agreed
that Chemical and BNY shall have the same rights and powers hereunder (including
the right to give such instructions) as the other Banks and may exercise such
rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and
instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions
with the Borrower, as though it were not the Collateral Agent and Administrative
Agent, respectively, under this Agreement; provided, that nothing contained in
any other such agreement or instrument shall constitute a waiver or modification
of the terms of any of the Loan Documents.
50
<PAGE>
SECTION 8.10. INDEPENDENT BANKS. Each Bank acknowledges that
it has decided to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans hereunder
based on its own analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby and of the
creditworthiness of the Borrower and agrees that the Agents shall bear no
responsibility therefor.
SECTION 8.11. NOTICE OF TRANSFER. The Agents may deem and
treat a Bank party to this Agreement as the owner of such Bank's portion of the
Loans for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or
transfer thereof executed by such Bank shall have been received by the Agents.
SECTION 8.12. SUCCESSOR AGENTS. Each of the Agents may resign
at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks. Upon any resignation
of the Collateral Agent, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a
successor Collateral Agent. If no successor Collateral Agent shall have been so

30 days after the retiring Collateral Agent's giving of notice of resignation,
the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which
shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of
America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at

thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, and the retiring Collateral shall
be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any
retiring Collateral Agent's resignation hereunder as Collateral Agent, the
provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Collateral agent under this
Agreement.

effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in
substantially the form of the surrendered Note. Thereafter, such surrendered
Note shall be marked canceled and returned to the Borrower.

participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section

participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Bank by

or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party.

SECTION 9.08. NO WAIVER. No failure on the part of either of
any of the Agents or the Banks to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any
right, power or remedy hereunder or under the Notes or any of the other Loan

exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All
remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies
provided by law.
SECTION 9.09. EXTENSION OF MATURITY. Should any payment of
principal of or interest on the Notes or any other amount due hereunder become

interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such

SECTION 9.10. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No modification, amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by
the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
in writing and signed by the Required Banks, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment shall without
the written consent of the Bank affected thereby (x) increase the Commitment of
a Bank, (y) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or the rate of interest
payable thereon, or extend any date for the payment of interest hereunder or
reduce any fees payable hereunder or extend the final maturity of the Borrower's

Note shall have been marked to indicate such amendment, modification, waiver or

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' CONSENT
The Board of Directors
NAI Technologies, Inc.:
We consent to incorporation by reference in the Registration Statements (Nos.
33-85957, 33-24073, 33-46868, 33-57324, 33-66666 and 33-66664) on Form S-8 of
NAI Technologies, Inc. of our report dated April 13, 1995, relating to the
consolidated balance sheets of NAI Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows and related schedule for each of
the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1994, which report appears
in the December 31, 1994 annual report on Form 10-K of NAI Technologies, Inc.
and subsidiaries.
As discussed in Note 10 to the Company's consolidated financial statements,
the Company was not in compliance with its bank debt covenants at December 31,
1994. Accordingly, on April 12, 1995, the Company entered into a new secured
revolving credit agreement with its lenders. The new secured revolving credit
agreement expires in early 1996 at which time the Company will be required to
repay all outstanding amounts due. The Company is considering several
alternatives to meet this requirement, including the sale of common or preferred
stock, issuance of convertible debt, a business combination, the sale of all or
a portion of the Company or borrowing from other institutions.
