Gentlemen:
In connection with the private placement of securities (the "Private Placement")
of U.S. Wireless Data, Inc. (the "Company") through Commonwealth Associates,
L.P. (the "Placement Agent"), the undersigned hereby represents that during the
period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the first anniversary of the
final closing of the Private Placement (the "Initial Lock-Up Period"), the
undersigned will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any securities of
the Company that are currently held by the undersigned or that are acquired by
the undersigned during the Initial Lock-Up Period; provide, however, that the
undersigned shall have the right to (i) transfer up to 159,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock to its employees without the consent of the Placement
Agent, and (ii) sell up to 980,000 shares (the "Saleable Shares") of Common
Stock commencing upon the earlier of June 1, 2000 or 30 days after the final
closing of the Offering, provided that the undersigned shall first give the
Placement Agent written notice of its intent to sell any or all of the Saleable
Shares and the Placement Agent shall have 30 days from the receipt of such
written notice to arrange for such shares to be sold in one or more block or
private transactions that will result in a net price to the undersigned of at
least $7 7/8 per share or such lower price as agreed to by the undersigned (the
"Target Price"). In the event that the Placement Agent is unable to arrange for
the sale of the Saleable Shares at the Target Price within such 3 days, then the
undersigned shall be free to sell such shares in the open market or otherwise

that the Initial Lock-Up Period may, at the discretion of the Placement Agent,
be extended for up to an additional six months from the closing of any public

provided that the Placement Agent extends the lock-up of all investors in the

will impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to all securities of the
Company that are currently held by the undersigned or that are acquired by the
undersigned during the Lock-Up Period, except for 980,000 and 159,000 shares
mentioned above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the undersigned is an individual, he or she
may transfer any securities of the Company either during his or her lifetime or
on death by will or intestacy to his or her immediate family or to a custodian,
trustee (including a trustee of a voting trust), executor or other fiduciary for
the account of his or her immediate family, a trust, the beneficiaries of which
are exclusively the undersigned and/or a member or members of his or her
immediate family, or a charitable reminder trust; provided that such transferee
agrees to be bound by the provisions of this lock-up agreement. For the purposes
of this paragraph, "immediate family" shall mean spouse, lineal descendant,
father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor, or lineal descendant of
brother or sister of the transferor.

REDEMPTION AGREEMENT
THIS REDEMPTION AGREEMENT, dated as of January 31, 2000 (this "Agreement"),
is made by and between U.S. Wireless Data, Inc., a Colorado corporation (the
"Company"), and Bold Street, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company
(the "Holder").
RECITALS
A. The Company issued 1,500,000 shares of Series B Cumulative Convertible
Redeemable Preferred Stock, no par value, $1.00 (plus accrued dividends)
liquidation preference of the Company (the "Preferred Shares"), pursuant to that
certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 30, 1999, between the
Holder and the Company (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"). Capitalized terms
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Securities Purchase Agreement.
B. The Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock (the
"Conversion Shares") upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in
the Certificate of Designation for the Preferred Shares.
C. The Company agreed to register the Conversion Shares and other
securities, including, without limitation, the shares issuable upon the exercise
of that certain Warrant, dated as of April 30, 1999, issued by the Company to
Holder (the "Original Warrant") with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form SB-2, pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of
April 30, 1999, between the Holder and the Company (the "Registration Rights
Agreement") and to pay a three percent (3%) per month penalty in the event that
such registration was not effective on or before July 29, 1999.
D. The penalty accrued as of the date hereof pursuant to the Registration
Rights Agreement equals the sum of $270,000 (the "Accrued Penalty").
E. The Escrow Agent (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement)
retained in a trust account the sum of $45,000 (the "Registration Hold Back
Amount") which was to be paid on behalf of the Company to its securities
attorneys, the firm of Ireland Stapleton, upon the effective date of the
registration of Conversion Shares, which amount has not been paid from said
trust account.
F. The Holder has agreed, pursuant to the terms hereof, to the redemption
by the Company of the Preferred Stock and in consideration therefor the Company
has agreed to issue additional warrants to the Holder and release the
Registration Hold Back Amount to or on behalf of the Holder.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
contained herein and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Holder hereby
agree as follows:
<PAGE>
1. Redemption.
(a) On condition that the Company (and Ireland Stapleton) authorizes
the release of the Registration Hold Back Amount pursuant to paragraph 2 below
and in consideration therefor, the Holder hereby agrees that at any time on or
before March 31, 2000, the Company may redeem the Preferred Stock for an amount
(the "Redemption Amount") equal to (i) One Million Eight Hundred Seventy Five
Thousand Dollars $1,875,000 (125% of the Stated Value), plus accrued dividends
on the date of the Redemption is consummated (the "Redemption Date"), less (ii)
$43,500 of the Redemption Hold Back Amount paid pursuant to paragraph 2 below.
As additional consideration for Holder's conditional waiver of penalties
provided for in paragraph 1(b) below, upon the consummation of the redemption
(and as a condition thereto) the Company shall issue a warrant, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Redemption Warrant"), to purchase 150,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock, at an exercise price equal to the lesser
of the closing bid price (as reported by Bloomberg) of the Company's Common
Stock on (i) the date hereof or (ii) the business day immediately prior to the
Redemption Date.
(b) On the condition that the redemption of the Preferred Shares (the
"Redemption") is consummated pursuant to the terms hereof on or before March 31,
2000, Holder hereby agrees to waive the Accrued Penalty and other sums arising
from Company's failure to timely register the Conversion Shares. Time is of the
essence with respect to the consummation of the redemption of the preferred
Shares by March 31, 2000 as a condition to the foregoing waiver of Accrued
Penalties. If the Company fails to redeem the Preferred Stock on or before March
31, 2000, the Holder's waiver of the Accrued Penalty, all other sums arising
from the failure to register the Conversion Shares (including the further
accruing of penalties during the calendar months of February and March) shall be
payable in full by the Company, less $43,500, the Redemption Hold Back Amount
applied to penalties pursuant to paragraph 2 hereof.
(c) On the condition that the Company is not in default hereunder,
Holder agrees not to sell, transfer, assign, otherwise convert or dispose of or
encumber or hypothecate the Preferred Shares prior to March 31, 2000.
(d) The Company shall provide written notice to Holder at least two
(2) business days prior to the Redemption Date and shall wire the Redemption
Amount to the trust account of an attorney designated by Holder (within two (2)
business days after receipt of Company's Notice), who shall hold the Redemption
Amount in trust until it receives (i) the origins certificate for the Preferred
Shares, with duly executed stock powers from the Holder, (ii) an original of the
Redemption Warrant from the Company (iii) and all other documents (i.e. form
escrow instructions) such attorney may reasonably require to disburse the
Redemption Amount and the Redemption Warrant to the Holder and the certificate
for the Preferred Shares, with duly executed stock powers to the Company. All
notices shall be sent as set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
2. Payment of Registration Hold Back Amount.
(a) Upon the full execution hereof, the Company (and by its
acknowledgment hereof, Ireland Stapleton Pryor Pascoe, P.C.) hereby authorizes
and instructs the Escrow Agent to release from its trust account to the Law
2
<PAGE>
Offices of Michael S. Rosenblum, the sum of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars
($1,500), for legal fees incurred by Holder in connection with the documentation
of this Agreement.
(b) Upon the full execution hereof, the Company (and by its
acknowledgment hereof, Ireland Stapleton Pryor Pascoe, P.C.) hereby authorizes
and instructs the Escrow Agent to release from its trust account to Holder the
sum of $43,500 to be applied to penalties due pursuant to paragraph ___ of the
Registration Statement for the Company's failure to Register the Conversion
Shares on or before July 29, 1999. If the Preferred Shares are Redeemed pursuant
to paragraph 1 on or before March 31, 2000 hereof (time being of the essence),
all penalties which have accrued under the Registration Statement shall be
waived, and the $43,500 shall be applied to the redemption of the Conversion
Shares pursuant to paragraph 1(a) above.

Holder to enter into this Agreement to facilitate the equity financing of the

accommodation to the Company. The Company is not aware of any claims, defenses
or offsets that excuse its performance under the Securities Purchase Agreement,
the Registration Rights Agreement, the Original Warrant or any other agreements
entered into in connection therewith (the "Convertible Documents") and to the
extent that any such claims, defenses or offsets exist it hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives them to the fullest extent permitted by the law. In
furtherance thereof and as a condition of Holder's entering into this Agreement
and except for the performance by the Holder of the provisions of this Agreement
and further except for the representations and warranties of the Holder
contained herein (which representations, warranties and indemnities shall
survive the consummation of this Agreement and as to which the parties shall
continue to be liable), the Company, for itself and on behalf of all direct and
indirect partners, officers, directors, employees, affiliates (both persons and
entities), representatives, agents, servants, trustees, beneficiaries,
5
<PAGE>
predecessors in interest, successors in interest, assigns, nominees and insurers
(collectively, the "Company Releasing Parties"), shall be deemed to have
released and forever discharged the Holder, and all direct and indirect
partners, officers, directors, employees, affiliates (both persons and
entities), agents, representatives (including investment advisors and managers)
servants, trustees, beneficiaries, predecessors in interest, successors in
interest, assigns, nominees and insurers of each such party, of and from any and
all claims, demands, actions and causes of action, whether known or unknown,
fixed or contingent, that any of the Company Releasing Parties may have had, may
now have or may hereafter acquire with respect to any matters whatsoever arising
under or in any way related to (i) the Convertible Documents, and (ii) any act
which may constitute a defense or offset to its performance of the Convertible
Documents.
(b) Upon the consummation of the redemption by the Company pursuant to
the terms hereof on or before March 31, 2000 (time being of the essence) and
except for the performance by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement,

representations and warranties of the Holder contained herein (which
representations, warranties and indemnities shall survive the consummation of
this Agreement and as to which the parties shall continue to be liable), the
Holder, for itself and on behalf of all direct and indirect partners, officers,
directors, employees, affiliates (both persons and entities), representatives,

Parties"), shall be deemed to have released and forever discharged the Company,

nominees and insurers of each such party, of and from any and all claims,
demands, actions and causes of action, whether known or unknown, fixed or
contingent, that any of the Holder Releasing Parties may have had, may now have
or may hereafter acquire with respect to any matters whatsoever arising under or
in any way related to the Convertible Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the foregoing release shall not release the Company
from any claims, demands, expenses or losses by the Holder Releasing Parties (
or causes of action or remedies related thereto) arising from (i) the breach by
the Company of covenants and obligations contained in the Convertible Documents
which require it to file and maintain the effectiveness of a Registration
Statement for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Original Warrant, (ii)
any indemnity by the Company for the benefit of the Holder Releasing Parties
contained in the Conversion Documents, or (iii) any breach by the Company of the
Original Warrant. This release by the Holder Releasing Party shall take effect
only upon the consummation of the Redemption pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof, and
if the Redemption is not consummated on or before March 31, 2000 (time being of
the essence) this Release shall be null and void.
(c) Each of the parties hereto represents, warrants and covenants that
he/she/it has not, and at the time this release becomes effective will not have,
sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise conveyed to any other person or entity
all or any portion of its rights, claims, demands, actions or causes of action
herein released.
Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that it is familiar with Section
1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, which provides as follows:
6
<PAGE>
"A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor
does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of
executing the release, which if known by him must have materially
affected his settlement with the debtor."
Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any and all rights and benefits that it
now has or in the future may have under Section 1542 of the Civil Code (and
under the comparable provisions of any other applicable law) and agrees and
acknowledges that this Agreement contains a full and final release applying to
unknown and unanticipated claims, injuries or damages arising out of the subject
matter hereof, as well as to those now known or disclosed.
Each party represents and warrants that it has relied wholly upon its own
judgment, belief and knowledge of the existence, nature, extent or duration of
any claim, demand, debt, damage, liability, account, reckoning, obligation,
cost, expense, cause of action, chosen action, right of indemnity, agreement or
promise that it may have against the released parties and that it has made full
investigations with respect to potential rights and claims released and that
such releasing party has not been influenced to any extent whatsoever in making
the releases contemplated by this agreement by any representation or statement
regarding any such matter. Each party further represents and warrants that it is
executing and delivering this Agreement and the releases contemplated hereunder
after having received full legal advice as to its rights hereunder and the legal
effect thereof from legal counsel of its own choosing. Notwithstanding the
above, this Agreement is not intended to and does not, release or extinguish the
rights of any of the parties to enforce this Agreement.

undersigned is the record and beneficial owner of the number of shares of the
Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the principal amount of its
6% Convertible Debentures set forth below (collectively, the "Securities"), and
that the Securities are the only debt or equity securities of the Company owned
by the undersigned other than Common Stock and the warrants set forth below.
(2) The undersigned agrees that, if the Company completes a private

designee of the Company for 125% of the original principal amount and/or
liquidation value of the Securities as set forth in Section 7 (the "Purchase

(3) The closing of the sale shall take place on the same day, time and
place as the closing of the New Financing, provided that the Company shall give
the undersigned three days prior written notice of the closing of the New
Financing. At such closing, the undersigned shall deliver to the Company or its
designee certificates representing the Securities, duly endorsed for transfer
and free and clear of all Liens (as defined below) against payment of the
Purchase Price.
(4) The undersigned represents and warrants to the Company, and by
delivering the Securities to the Company at the closing shall be deemed to
represent and warrant to the Company as of the closing date, that:
(a) The undersigned has good and valid title to the Securities, free
and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities, claims, proxies or other voting
rights ("Liens"); and, upon delivery of such Securities and the consummation of
the sale pursuant hereto, the Company will receive good and valid title to such
Securities, free and clear of all Liens.
(b) All consents, approvals, authorizations and orders necessary for
the execution, delivery and performance by the undersigned of this Agreement
have been obtained; and the undersigned has full right, power and authority to

binding obligation of the undersigned, enforceable against the undersigned in
accordance with its terms.
(c) The undersigned has no claims against the Company with respect to
the Securities and the related agreements, including without limitation, any
claims as to registration rights, dividends, interest or penalties, and the
undersigned hereby waives in full any and all such claims or rights, past or
present or future, against the Company, and all such documents representing the
Securities or executed in connection therewith shall become null and void.

(5) The undersigned irrevocably waives past, present and future dividends,
interest and all penalties relating to the ownership of Securities, and the
Warrants, the Shares and any other securities of the Company owned by the
undersigned (collectively, the "Other Securities") including, without
limitation, penalties relating to late registration of the Securities or the

anti-dilution rights that may have been triggered, or may be triggered, as the
result of any issuances of any securities by the Company, including, without

wired 232,500$ to RBB Bank to redeem the 225,000$ bridgeloan on or before
January 21, 2000 or shall not have issued to the bridgeloanholders warrants to
purchase 22,500 shares of USWD common stock, at $1.50 per share, exercisable
through July 6, 2004.
(10) This agreement shall be null and void if the securities listed in (7)
