Item 5.    Other Events

     On July 15, 1998, at the request of the Registrant, the Registrant and
Lockheed Martin Corporation, the majority stockholder of Registrant ("Lockheed
Martin") effected an exchange of debt for equity (the "Exchange") whereby $60
million of outstanding indebtedness (the "Debt") owing by the Registrant to
Lockheed Martin under their Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the
"Credit Agreement") was exchanged for 1,000,000 shares of the Company's Series A
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock").  In connection
with the Exchange, the Credit Agreement was amended to reduce the amount of
borrowing available to Registrant from $73 million to $13 million.  The
Registrant and Lockheed Martin executed the Exchange for the purpose of
strengthening the Registrant's Balance Sheet and ensuring that the Registrant
continues to meet the requirements for its common shares to trade on NASDAQ's
National Market System.  The Registrant has received a fairness opinion from an
outside financial advisor that the Exchange was fair and reasonable to all of
the Registrant's common stockholders.

     The terms of the Preferred Stock provide, among other things, that Lockheed
Martin as holder of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as
and if declared by the Board of Directors, and in preference to the holders of
Common Stock, cumulative dividends payable at the annual rate of $4.80 per
share.  Dividends shall accrue and be cumulative on outstanding Preferred Stock
from the date of original issue of the shares, and accrued but unpaid dividends
shall accrue additional dividends at the rate of 8% per annum on the accrued but
unpaid amount.  After the occurrence of a Change of Control (defined as a
reduction in ownership by Lockheed Martin to 50% or below in the combined voting
power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Registrant entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors), the dividend rate on shares of
Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be increased to $9.00 per share per annum
plus 15% per annum on any accrued but unpaid dividends (and additional
dividends, if any) (the "Adjusted Dividend Rate").  The Adjusted Dividend Rate
shall apply until the earlier to occur of (i) the redemption by the Registrant
of the Preferred Stock or (ii) the acquisition of shares of Preferred Stock by
any person (or group of persons) who acquires more than 50% of the combined
voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Registrant entitled to
vote generally in the election of directors, if any, but the Adjusted Dividend
Rate shall only be terminated to the extent that such Preferred Stock is owned
by such person (or group of persons).  The Preferred Stock has no conversion
rights and is non-voting, except to the extent of the right of the holder of
Preferred Stock to restrict, among other things, the Registrant's ability to
effect dividends, distributions or redemptions with respect to the Common Stock
or other shares of stock ranking junior to or in parity with the Preferred Stock
while the Preferred Stock is outstanding.  In addition, without the prior
written consent of the holder of the Preferred Stock, the Registrant shall not
issue any shares of capital stock ranking senior with respect to dividends or
other distributions or in the event of dissolution, liquidation or winding up or
in any way amend the Certificate of Designation containing the rights,
preferences and privileges of the Preferred Stock or the Fourth Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant in any manner that would
have an adverse effect on the rights of holders of Preferred Stock.  Provided
that there are no dividend arrearages on the Preferred Stock and the Registrant
is in full compliance with the terms and conditions of the Certificate of
Designation, the Registrant shall have the right, at its sole option and
election, to redeem all or, subject to the provisions of the following sentence,
<PAGE>
 
a portion of the outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock by paying therefor in
cash $60 per share plus any unpaid dividends to the date of redemption (the
"Redemption Price").  In the event that less than all of the outstanding shares
of Preferred stock are to be redeemed, the aggregate Redemption Price for any
such redemption shall be not less than $1,000,000.  Upon the liquidation
(voluntary or otherwise), dissolution, reorganization, sale of all or
substantially all of the assets or winding up of the Registrant, no distribution
shall be made to the holders of the Common Stock unless, prior thereto, the
holders of shares of Preferred Stock shall have received the product of $60
times any unredeemed shares of the Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid
dividends to the date of payment (the "Liquidation Preference").  Following
payment of the full amount of the Liquidation Preference, no additional
distributions shall be made to the holders of the Preferred Stock.  In the event
there are not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the
Liquidation Preference, then such remaining assets shall be distributed ratably
to the holders of the Preferred Stock.

     The Registrant, as discussed in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
ended March 29, 1998, had previously entered into a letter of intent with a bank
which contemplated an additional $25 million senior line of credit; however, the
Registrant was not able to reach an agreement with the bank and these
negotiations were recently terminated.  The Registrant anticipates that it will
fully draw down the remaining $13 million of credit line available under the
Credit Agreement to meet operating requirements during the fiscal quarter ending
September 27, 1998.

     In an effort to address this issue, the Registrant has approached Lockheed 
Martin, which has stated that it will loan additional funds to the Registrant 
sufficient to fund the day-to-day operations of the Registrant pending a review 
of the Registrant's business strategy scheduled to occur in July. In addition, 
Lockheed Martin has agreed to consider loaning the Registrant additional funds 
thereafter depending upon the results of this review. The Registrant has engaged
Salomon Smith Barney as an investment advisor to assist it in the consideration 
of strategic alternatives. Management notes that, even if Lockheed Martin does 
agree to extend funds following the July review, the terms under which it would 
do so and the period of operations that such funds would permit are not now 
determined. Failure to obtain additional funding will result in material 
liquidity problems for the Registrant.

       Press Release of Registrant attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.

              --------------                                               
representations in Section 4, the Exchange of the Preferred Shares in conformity
with the terms of this Agreement constitutes a transaction exempt from the
registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act").
      --------------   

         3.5  Governmental Consents.  No consent, approval, order or
              ---------------------
authorization of, or registration, qualification, designation, declaration or
filing with, any federal, state or local governmental authority on the part of
the Company is required in connection with the valid execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement or the Exchange of the Preferred Shares, except
for the qualification (or the taking of such action as may be necessary to
secure an exemption from qualification, if available) of the Exchange under
applicable blue sky laws, which filings and qualifications, if required, will be
accomplished in a timely manner; provided, however, that solely with respect to
the federal securities laws and the state "blue sky" securities laws, the
representations and warranties of the Company provided in this Section 3.5 shall
be subject to the accuracy of the representations of Lockheed Martin set forth
in Section 4 hereof.

         3.6  Valid Issuance of the Preferred Stock.  The Preferred Shares, when

              ---------------                                                   
action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of the Company's
knowledge, threatened (or any basis therefor known to the Company), that
questions the validity of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or the Preferred Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or which
could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of
operations, business or properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as
a whole.

         3.8  Disclosure.  No representation or warranty of the Company
              ----------
contained in this Agreement or in any written certificate furnished or to be
furnished to Lockheed Martin pursuant hereto or thereby, when read together,
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not
misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made.

         3.9  No Violation.  Neither the Company's execution and delivery of
              ------------
this Agreement nor the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby will breach a material agreement to which the Company or any
subsidiary of the

<PAGE>
 
Company is a party or by which its or any of its subsidiaries' assets are bound,
or cause any such violation or breach, or accelerate or allow any person to
accelerate, terminate, modify or cancel any material rights under any such
agreement, or will result in the creation of any material lien on the assets or
properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Such execution, delivery
and consummation will not violate or breach or constitute a default under any
law, judgment, order, or decree to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries
is subject or by which the properties or assets of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries are bound.

     4.  Representations and Warranties of Lockheed Martin.  Lockheed Martin
         -------------------------------------------------                  
represents and warrants that:

         4.1  Authorization.  This Agreement constitutes Lockheed Martin's valid
              -------------
and legally binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except
as the enforcement thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting enforcement
of the rights and remedies of creditors or by general principles of equity
(whether applied at law or in equity); and Lockheed Martin has full corporate
power and authority to enter into this Agreement.

         4.2  Purchase for Own Account.  Lockheed Martin is acquiring the
              ------------------------
Preferred Shares for its own account and not with a view to or for sale in
connection with any distribution of the Preferred Shares.

         4.3  Disclosure of Information.  Lockheed Martin has received from the
              -------------------------
Company all information it has requested and considers necessary or appropriate
for deciding whether to acquire the Preferred Shares in exchange for $60.0
million of the Company's Debt. Lockheed Martin has had an opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and
conditions of the Exchange of the Preferred Shares.

         4.4  Restricted Securities.  Lockheed Martin understands that the
              ---------------------
Preferred Shares will be "restricted securities" under the Securities Act
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering, and that, under the Securities Act and applicable
regulations thereunder, such securities may be resold without registration under
the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.

         4.5  Legends.  Lockheed Martin understands that the certificates
              -------
evidencing the securities will bear the legend set forth below, together with
any other legends required by applicable state securities laws:

         THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR

                SERIES A CUMULATIVE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

                                      OF

                           CALCOMP TECHNOLOGY, INC.


  CalComp Technology, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, (the "Corporation"), certifies
that the following resolution has been duly adopted by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation:

  RESOLVED, that under the authority contained in Article 4(a) of the Fourth
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, the Board
of Directors of the Corporation hereby designates 1,000,000 unissued shares of
the Preferred Stock of the Corporation as 1,000,000 shares of "Series A
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock" having the powers, designations,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and
the qualifications, limitations of such preferences and/or rights as set by the
Board of Directors of the Corporation as follows:

  Section 1.  Designation and Amount.
              ---------------------- 

  The shares of such series shall be designated as Series A Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), par value $0.01 per
share, and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 1,000,000.

  Section 2.  Dividends.
              --------- 

  (A)  Subject to the prior and superior rights of any shares of any series of
preferred stock ranking prior and superior to the Series A Preferred Stock in
respect of dividends, the holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, in
preference to the holders 

                                      A-11
<PAGE>
 
of shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01, of the Corporation (the "Common
Stock") and any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series A
Preferred Stock as to dividends, shall be entitled to receive, when as and if
declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the
payment of dividends, cumulative dividends payable at the annual rate of $4.80
per share, and, subject to the provisions of Section 3 below, no more, in equal
quarterly payments on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 (or if any
of such days is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) in each
year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date that is at least
30 days after the date of original issue of the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock. A holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive payment
of dividends by wire transfer by giving written instructions to the Corporation
at least two business days prior to the payment date.
 
     (B)  Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the date of original issue of the
shares. Dividends shall accrue and be payable based on the number of days in
each year and the numbers of days actually elapsed. Accrued but unpaid dividends
payable under this Section 2 or any other Section of this Certificate of
Designation shall accrue additional dividends at the rate of 8% per annum on the
accrued but unpaid amount, and references in this Certificate of Designation to
accrued but unpaid dividends shall be deemed to include such additional
dividends. Dividends paid on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock in an amount
less than the total amount of dividends at the time accrued and payable on the
shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-
share basis among all the shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors
may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend declared thereon,
which record date shall be no more than 45 days and no less than 10 days prior
to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

     Section 3.  Increase in Dividend Rate On Change of Control.
                 ---------------------------------------------- 

     (A)  Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2, after the occurrence of a
Change of Control (as defined below), the dividend rate on shares of Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be increased to $9.00 per share per annum
plus 15% per annum on any accrued but unpaid dividends (and additional
dividends, if any) (the "Adjusted Dividend Rate"). The Adjusted Dividend Rate
shall apply until the earlier to occur of (i) the redemption by the Corporation
of the Series A Preferred Stock or (ii) the acquisition of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock by any Person (or group of Persons) who acquires more than 50%
of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the
Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, if any, but
the Adjusted Dividend Rate shall only be terminated to the extent that such
Series A Preferred Stock is owned by such Person (or group of Persons).

     (B)  For purposes of this Certificate of Designation, "Change in Control"
shall mean a reduction in ownership by Lockheed Martin Corporation and its
subsidiaries to 50% or below in the combined voting power of the then
outstanding voting stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors.

     Section 4.  Voting Rights.
                 ------------- 

     Subject to the right to consent in certain limited circumstances as set
forth in Section 5 below, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
shall have no voting rights.

     Section 5.  Certain Restrictions.
                 -------------------- 

     (A)  For so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding,
the Corporation shall not:

          (i)   declare or pay dividends on, make any other distributions on, or
redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock
ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up) to the Series A Preferred Stock ("Junior Stock");

          (ii)  declare or pay dividends on or make any other distributions on
any shares of other stock ranking in parity (either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series A Preferred Stock
("Parity Stock"), except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock
and all such Parity Stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in
proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then
entitled; or

          (iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any
shares of Parity Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem,
purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such Parity Stock in exchange for
shares of any Junior Stock.

     (B)  Without the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall not issue any shares of capital
stock ranking senior with respect to dividends or other distributions or in the
event of dissolution, liquidation or winding up or in any way amend this
Certificate of Designation or the Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation in any manner that would have an adverse effect
on the rights of holders of Series A Preferred Stock.

     (C)  The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation or
any employee stock ownership plan (or related trust) or other employee benefit
plan (or related trust) for the employees of the Corporation or any subsidiary
(other than, with respect to any plans other than an employee stock ownership
plan, (i) in the normal operation of a plan qualified under Section 401(k) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (ii) any plan (or related trust)
in existence on the date of this Certificate of Designation or (iii) any plan
(or related trust) subsequently approved by the Corporation's stockholders), to
purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the
Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 5,
purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.

     Section 6.  Redemption.
                 ---------- 

     (A)  Provided that there are no dividend arrearages on the Series A
Preferred Stock and the Corporation is in full compliance with the terms and
conditions of this Certificate of Designation, the Corporation shall have the
right, at its sole option and election, to redeem all or, subject to the
provisions of the following sentence, a portion of the outstanding shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock by paying therefor in cash $60 per share plus any
unpaid dividends to the date of redemption (the "Redemption Price"). In the
event that less than all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock
are to be redeemed, the aggregate Redemption Price for any such redemption shall
be not less than $1,000,000.

     (B)  Notice of any redemption of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock
shall be given by mailing to each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
to be redeemed, at the holder's address as it appears on the books of the
Corporation, written notice of redemption not less than 30 days and not more
than 90 days prior to the date fixed for redemption (the "Redemption Date"). To
facilitate the redemption of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the Board of
Directors may fix a record date for the determination of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock to be redeemed and holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock
entitled to notice of redemption, provided that the record date may not be less
than 30 days and may not be more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. Any
notice that is mailed in such manner shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not any holder entitled to notice of redemption actually
receives the notice. The failure of the Corporation to give such notice to any
holder entitled to notice of redemption shall not affect the validity of the
proceedings for the redemption of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock from
any other holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

     (C)  Notice of redemption shall specify (i) the number of shares of Series
A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed, (ii) the Redemption Date, (iii) the
redemption price (which price shall include accrued but unpaid dividends
thereon), and (iv) the place where payment of the redemption price is to be made
upon surrender of the certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock.

     (D)  In respect of each share of Series A Preferred Stock called for
redemption in accordance with this Section 6, the Corporation shall be obligated
to pay to the registered holder thereof the Redemption Price, upon surrender of
the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series A Preferred
Stock at the office of the Corporation or any transfer or paying agent specified
for that purpose, on or after the Redemption Date. In the event that less than
all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock are redeemed, the
Corporation shall deliver a replacement certificate or certificates representing
any unredeemed shares to the holder tendering such certificates. Unless the
Corporation shall default in the payment of, or in providing for the payment of,
the Redemption Price, dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock called
for redemption, shall cease to accrue as of the Redemption Date. Except as
otherwise expressly

       AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
                                        
Amendment No. 2, dated July 15, 1998 (the "Amendment"), to the Amended and
Restated Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of December 20, 1996, as amended
March 20, 1998 (the "Credit Agreement"), among CalComp Technology, Inc., a
Delaware corporation ("Technology"), CalComp Inc., a California corporation
("CalComp", and together with Technology, the "Borrowers"), and Lockheed Martin
Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Lender").  Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meaning given them in the Credit Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Borrowers and the Lender are parties to an Exchange Agreement,
dated July __, 1998 (the "Exchange Agreement"), pursuant to which they have
agreed to (i) exchange all or a portion of the outstanding Loans for shares of
Technology's Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, and (ii) reduce
Lender's Commitment under the Credit Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained herein and in the Exchange Agreement and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
Borrowers and the Lender agree as follows:

1. Reduction in Commitment.  The definition of "Commitment" contained in Section
   -----------------------                                                      
   1.1 of the Credit Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced
   with the following:

     "Commitment" means $13,000,000, as such amount may be reduced from
     time to time pursuant to Section 2.7 hereof.  The Commitment represents a
     reduction in the Original Commitment."


2. April 1998 Waiver.  Borrowers and Lender agree that (i) the transactions
   -----------------                                                       
   contemplated by the Exchange Agreement are outside the scope of Section
   2.1(c) of the Credit Agreement and thus Lender's April 1, 1998 waiver (the
   "April 1998 Waiver") of its rights under Section 2.1(c) of the Credit
   Agreement is inapplicable to such transactions, and (ii) with respect to the
   Commitment established by this Amendment, the April 1998 waiver shall remain
   in effect until January 31, 1999.

3. Additional Waivers.  Lender hereby waives any Defaults existing at the date
   ------------------                                                         
   hereof.  With respect to the  transactions contemplated by the Exchange
   Agreement, Lender waives compliance with Section 2.8 of the Credit Agreement
   to the extent payments of Loan principal are required to be made in
   immediately available funds.

                                      B-1
<PAGE>
 
4. No Other Changes.  Except as specifically modified by this Amendment, the
   ----------------                                                         
   Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and no additional
   changes, modifications, or amendments shall be inferred that are not
   expressly set forth herein.

5. Counterparts.  This document may be signed in any number of counterparts with
   ------------                                                                 
   the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same
   instrument.

6. Governing Law.  This document shall be construed in accordance with and
   -------------                                                          
   governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without reference to the
   conflict of laws provisions of such laws.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this document to be duly executed
and delivered as of the day and year first above written.

               CALCOMP RESTRUCTURES DEBT OWED TO LOCKHEED MARTIN;
               ENGAGES BANKER TO ADVISE ON STRATEGIC ALTERNATIVES

     ANAHEIM, CA -- July 16, 1998 -- CalComp Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq:CLCP)
today announced it has completed an agreement to restructure $60 million of
long-term debt owed to Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:LMT) and has engaged Salomon
Smith Barney to advise the company on strategic alternatives.

     Under the new agreement, Lockheed Martin will receive 1,000,000 non-voting
shares of 8% non-convertible Series A Preferred stock of CalComp Technology,
Inc., priced at $60 per share.  As part of the agreement, CalComp's revolving
line of credit with Lockheed Martin will be reduced to $13 million from $73
million. The company said it expects to use this line to meet operating expenses
in the third quarter ending September 27, 1998.

     John Batterton, president and chief executive officer of CalComp, said the
company had previously entered into a letter of intent with a bank for an
additional $25 million senior line of credit, but was not able to reach
agreement, and these negotiations were recently terminated.

     Batterton said Lockheed Martin has agreed to consider providing CalComp
with additional funding to meet the company's liquidity requirements.  Failure
to obtain additional funding will result in material liquidity problems for the
company.

     With the completion of the Lockheed Martin preferred stock agreement and
the resulting improvement of its balance sheet, CalComp continues to meet the
requirements for its common shares to trade on Nasdaq's National Market System.

statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in the
