ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
In connection with the purchase from DATA RACE, Inc. (the "Company") in November
1997 of $5,000,000 of DATA RACE, Inc. 1997 Series C Convertible Participating
Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") and Warrants by four investment firms (the
"Investors"), the Investors agreed to purchase, subject to certain conditions,
an additional $3,000,000 of Preferred Stock and Warrants at a second closing.
The Company and the Investors had previously agreed to defer such second closing
to June 10, 1998, because of the dilution caused by the Company's stock price.
On June 10, 1998, the Investors informed the Company of their belief that,
because of the continuing decline in the Company's stock price, such funding
would not be in the best interests of the Company's shareholders or the
Investors and that the Company did not have the required number of authorized
and reserved shares in excess of current conversion requirements. The Company
continues to have concerns regarding the significant dilution that would occur
as a result of the second funding. As a result, the Company does not expect the
second funding to occur.
The Company continues in discussion with potential investors seeking additional
funding; however, there can be no assurance that such funding will be obtained.
As discussed in the Company's Forms 10-K and 10-Q, failure to obtain required
financing would have a material adverse impact on the Company's business.
