This Amendment No. 16 to Schedule 13D relates to the shares of common
stock, $0.01 par value (the "Shares"), of Geotek Communications, Inc. (the
"Issuer"). This Amendment No. 16 supplementally amends the initial statement on
Schedule 13D dated November 9, 1993 and all subsequent amendments thereto
(collectively, the "Initial Statement"). This Amendment No. 16 is being filed by
the Reporting Persons to report that certain of the Reporting Persons have
entered into an arrangement with the Issuer providing for up to $10 million in
debtor-in-possession financing. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial Statement. The
Initial Statement is supplementally amended as follows.
Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.
S-C Rig III, by its General Partner, entered into a Credit Agreement
dated as of June 29, 1998 (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement
dated as of July 15, 1998, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits W and
X, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 4
(the "Credit Agreement")), with the Issuer and Geotek USA, Inc., debtors and
debtors-in-possession (the "Borrowers"), whereby S-C Rig III agreed to lend $10
million to the Borrowers as debtor-in-possession financing. On June 29, 1998,
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy
Court") issued an order approving the borrowing of up to $7 million on an
interim basis, pending a hearing on final approval of the debtor-in-possession
financing. The description of the terms of the Credit Agreement is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the specific provisions of the Credit Agreement.
On July 23, 1998, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order granting final
approval of the borrowing of up to $10 million under the Credit Agreement. In
addition, S-C Rig III, the Borrowers and certain of the Borrowers subsidiaries
(the "Subsidiaries") entered into a Security and Pledge Agreement dated as of
June 29, 1998, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit Y and incorporated
herein by reference in response to this Item 4, whereby the Borrowers and the
Subsidiaries pledged to S-C Rig III, among other things, as security for the
loan, (i) rights in and to certain special mobile radio licenses and stock in
the subsidiary(ies) holding the licenses, and (ii) all unencumbered assets of
the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries, including, all accounts, chattel paper,
contracts, documents, equipment, instruments, inventory and all proceeds and
products thereof, with the exception of certain specifically excluded assets.
The description of the terms of the Security and Pledge Agreement is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the specific provisions of the Security and
Pledge Agreement.
Attached to the Credit Agreement is a Term Sheet for a Chapter 11
reorganization plan for the Borrowers and their subsidiaries, which contemplates
that S-C Rig III would, subject to certain terms and conditions, underwrite a
rights offering for the reorganized debtors whereby S-C Rig III would have the
right to (i) purchase up to $10 million of new common stock in the reorganized
Issuer on the same terms and conditions as other participants, (ii) purchase its
pro rata share of $10 million of new common stock in the reorganized Issuer on
the same terms and conditions as other participants, (iii) nominate a majority
of the board of directors of the Issuer and (iv) receive its pro rata share of
warrants to purchase additional new common stock in the reorganized Issuer. The
term sheet is subject to definitive documentation and bankruptcy court approval
of a Chapter 11 plan and there can be no assurance that the transactions
contemplated thereby will occur.

COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a corporation organized under the laws of Delaware and a
debtor and debtor-in-possession, and GEOTEK USA, INC., a corporation organized
under the laws of Delaware and a debtor and debtor-in- possession (together, the
"Borrowers"), and S-C RIG INVESTMENTS III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(the "Lender").
The Borrowers filed voluntary petitions for relief under chapter 11 of
title 11 of the United States Code on June 29, 1998 (the "Petition Date"). The
Borrowers have requested the Lender to provide the Borrowers with a $10,000,000

and confirmation of a plan of reorganization and to provide working capital to
fund the Borrowers' business operations in accordance with the Budget (defined
below), and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender
has agreed to provide such facility.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree, effective upon the
Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), as follows:
ARTICLE 1
DEFINITIONS; ACCOUNTING TERMS
1.1 Definitions. As used in this Agreement the following terms have
the following meanings (terms defined in the singular to have a correlative
meaning when used in the plural and vice versa):
"Acquisition" shall mean any transaction, or any series of related
transactions, consummated after the date of this Agreement, by which any of the
Borrowers and/or any of their Subsidiaries (in one transaction or as the most
recent transaction in a series of transactions) directly or indirectly acquires
(a) the business of, or all or substantially all of the assets of, any firm,
corporation or division thereof, whether through purchase of assets, merger or

any jurisdiction or filing office, or to take possession of any Collateral or to
take any other action in order to validate or perfect the liens and security
interests granted by or pursuant to this Agreement, the Interim Order or the
Final Order, as the case may be, or any other Facility Document. If the Lender
shall, in its sole discretion, from time to time choose to file such financing
statements, notices of Lien, mortgages or similar instruments, take possession
of any Collateral, or take any other action to validate or perfect any such
security interests or liens, all such documents shall be deemed to have been

priority provided above and therein) shall not be modified, altered, primed or
impaired (including by the grant of a junior Lien on any Collateral) in any
manner by any other financing or extension of credit or incurrence of Debt by
the Borrowers (pursuant to section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise), or
by any dismissal or conversion of the Chapter 11 Cases, or, with respect to any
Loans then outstanding, any modification, amendment or reversal or stay of the
Interim Order or the Final Order, as the case may be, or by any other act or
omission whatsoever. Without limitation, notwithstanding any such order,
financing, extension, incurrence, dismissal, conversion, act of omission:
(a) except for the Carve-Out Expenses, no costs or expenses of
administration which have been or may be incurred in the Chapter 11 Cases or any
conversion of the same or in any other proceedings related thereto, and no
priority claims, are or will be prior to or on a parity with any claim of the
Lender against the Borrowers in respect of any Obligation;
(b) the liens and security interests in favor of the Lender set
forth in Section 5.1(a) hereof and in the Facility Documents shall constitute
valid and perfected first priority Liens and security interests, subject only to
the Permitted Liens to which such liens and security interests hereunder shall
be subordinate and junior, and shall be prior to all other Liens and security
interests, now existing or hereafter arising, in favor of any other creditor or

<PAGE>
Page 55 of 108 Pages
application to the Bankruptcy Court, by notice to the Borrowers,
(a) declare the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitments
will terminate immediately and any fees hereunder shall be immediately due and
payable without further order of or application to the Bankruptcy Court,
presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue; or
(b) declare the unpaid principal amount of the Notes, interest
accrued thereon, and all other amounts owing by the Borrowers hereunder or under
the Notes to be immediately due and payable without further order of or
application to the Bankruptcy Court, presentment, demand, protest or further
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, and an action
therefor shall immediately accrue.
10.3 Certain Remedies. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Lender may, on seven Banking Days' prior notice to the Borrowers
and any official committee appointed in the Chapter 11 Cases, exercise all
rights and remedies which the Lender may have hereunder or under any other
Facility Document, the Interim Order, the Final Order or at law (including but
not limited to the Bankruptcy Code and the Uniform Commercial Code) or in equity
or otherwise, without regard to the automatic stay provided for in section 362
of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrowers or any of its property or
any of the Collateral. Within such seven Banking Days, the Borrowers or any
other party-in-interest may seek a hearing before the Bankruptcy Court on the
sole issue of whether an Event of Default has, in fact, occurred, and the Lender
shall refrain from enforcing any of its remedies hereunder until the Bankruptcy
Court has ruled in respect thereof or an agreement has otherwise been reached.
Unless the Bankruptcy Court shall order that no Event of Default has occurred,
the automatic stay under section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code shall be vacated
with respect to the Collateral, and the Lender shall be free to exercise all of
its rights with respect to the Collateral, subject to the rights of the holders
of Permitted Liens, without further approval of the Bankruptcy Court. All
proceeds in respect thereof shall be applied by the Lender to reduce the
Obligations in the Lender's sole discretion, and the Borrowers shall remain
liable for any deficiencies. With respect to any lease or executory contract
constituting part of the Collateral, the Lender shall have the right to cause
the Borrowers to assume and assign such lease or executory contract to the
Lender or its designee, although nothing herein shall be construed to limit the
rights of the counter-party to such lease or executory contract to adequate
assurance and cure payments under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or to
impose any obligation on the Lender to make any such adequate assurance or cure
payments. Any proceeds received by the Borrowers in connection with the
assumption and assignment of any executory contract or lease shall be proceeds
of the Collateral and immediately remitted to the Lender to reduce the
Obligations then outstanding. All such remedies shall be cumulative and not
exclusive. No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude
<PAGE>
Page 56 of 108 Pages
any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The
remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law.
ARTICLE 11

of the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement,
waiver or consent must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent
specifically set forth in such writing. In the case of any such waiver or
consent relating to any provision hereof, any Event of Default so waived or
consented to shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no such waiver

any right consequent thereto.

assigns (including, except for the right to request Loans, any trustee or
examiner or other person with expanded powers succeeding to the rights of the

and agree that the Lender is and shall remain a party in interest in the Chapter

incurred by the Lender in accordance herewith. The balance of any such fees and
expenses shall be paid by the Borrowers within thirty days after receipt unless
a party in interest shall have filed a formal objection thereto with the
Bankruptcy Court within such thirty day period. Thereafter, if the parties are
unable to reach agreement in respect thereof, a hearing before the Bankruptcy
Court solely on the issue of the reasonableness of such fees and expenses will
be held.
(b) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Lender and its
directors, officers, partners, employees, representatives, attorneys and agents
from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities,
claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them arising out of or by reason
of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any
threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to any
actual or proposed use by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary of the proceeds of the
Loans, or its role with respect to the Chapter 11 Plan, including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in
connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings (but
excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by

portion of its Commitment) owing to the Lender to another Lender or other
entity, in which event (a) in the case of an assignment, upon notice thereof by
the Lender to the Borrowers, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such
assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights, benefits and
obligations as it would have if it were the Lender hereunder; and (b) in the
case of a participation, the participant shall have no rights under the Facility
Documents. The agreement executed by the Lender in favor of the participant

extension of a payment date with respect to any portion of the principal of or
interest on any amount outstanding hereunder allocated to such participant, (ii)
the reduction of the principal amount outstanding hereunder or (iii) the
reduction of the rate of interest payable on such amount or any amount of fees

participant is entitled to receive under its agreement with the Lender. The
Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrowers in the possession of
