Article V
SUBSCRIPTION PROCEDURE
5.1 Valid Exercise of Rights. For a valid exercise of Rights to occur,
the Subscription Agent must receive, by mail, hand delivery, or otherwise, prior
to 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the Expiration Date, the Rights Certificate
pertaining to such Rights, which has been properly completed and endorsed for
exercise, as provided in the instructions on the reverse side of the Rights
Certificate, and payment in full in U.S. Dollars of the Subscription Price for
the total number of Units subscribed pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right
and the Over-Subscription Right (as defined below), by check, bank check, money
order or other negotiable instrument payable to the order of "American Stock
Transfer and Trust Company, as Subscription Agent - RELM Wireless Corporation"
or by wire transfer pursuant to instructions provided by the Subscription Agent.
5.2 Subscription Price Re-Pricing. In the event that the Subscription
Price is reduced as a result of a Subscription Price Re-Pricing, unless an
oversubscription occurs, the subscribing Equity Holders will not receive a
refund for any Subscription Price paid for the Basic Subscription Right and
shall receive additional Units in the total amount equal to the total amount
paid by each Equity Holder for Basic Subscription Rights divided by the
Re-Priced Subscription Price, rounded down to the lowest whole number, with any
excess being refunded to the Equity Holder. In the event of a Subscription Price
Re-Pricing, the Total Units Offered shall be increased from 2,500,000 Units to
an amount equal to 2,500,000 multiplied by the sum of one plus the dollar amount
by which the Subscription Price is reduced (up to a maximum of $0.20) as a
result of the Subscription Price Re-Pricing of the 2,500,000 Units, but to an
amount no greater than 3,000,000 Units.
5.3 Depository Trust Company. In the case of Rights Offerees of Rights
that are held of record through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), exercises
of the Basic Subscription Right may be effected by instructing DTC to transfer
Rights from the DTC account of such Rights Offeree to the DTC account of the
Subscription Agent, together with payment of the Subscription Price for each
Unit subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right and the
Over-Subscription Right, as applicable. Alternatively, a Rights Offeree may
exercise the Rights evidenced by the Rights Certificate by effecting compliance
with the procedures for guaranteed delivery set forth in Section 5.4 below.
5.4 Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. If a Rights Offeree wishes to
exercise Rights, but time will not permit such Rights Offeree to cause the
Rights Certificate evidencing such Rights to reach the Subscription Agent on or
prior to the Expiration Date, such Rights may nevertheless be exercised if all
of the following conditions are met (the "Guaranteed Delivery Procedures"): (a)
such Rights Offeree has caused payment in full of the Subscription Price for
each Unit being subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Right and the
Over-Subscription Right to be received by the Subscription Agent on or prior to
the Expiration Date; (b) the Subscription Agent receives, on or prior to the
Expiration Date, a guarantee notice (a "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery"),
4
substantially in the form provided with the Subscription Documents, from an
Eligible Institution, stating the name of the Rights Offeree, the number of
Rights held by the Rights Certificate or Rights Certificates held by such Rights
Offeree, the number of Units being subscribed for pursuant to the Basic
Subscription Right and the number of Units, if any, being subscribed for
pursuant to the Over-Subscription Right, and guaranteeing the delivery to the
Subscription Agent of the Rights Certificate evidencing such Rights at or prior
to 5:00 p.m., New York, New York, on the date three (3) business days following
the date of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery; and (c) the properly completed
Rights Certificate(s) evidencing the Rights being exercised are received by the
Subscription Agent, or such Rights are transferred into the DTC account of the
Subscription Agent, at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on the
date three (3) business days following the date of the Notice of Guaranteed
Delivery relating thereto. The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be delivered to
the Subscription Agent in the same manner as Rights Certificates at the
addresses set forth above, or may be transmitted to the Subscription Agent by
telegram or facsimile transmission (facsimile: ___________).
5.5 Deemed Exercises. If a Rights Offeree has not indicated the number
of Rights being exercised, or if the Subscription Price payment forwarded by
such Rights Offeree to the Subscription Agent is not sufficient to purchase the
number of Units subscribed for, the Rights Offeree will be deemed to have
exercised the Basic Subscription Right with respect to the maximum number of
Rights which may be exercised for the Subscription Price delivered to the
Subscription Agent and, to the extent that the Subscription Price payment
delivered by such Rights Offeree exceeds the Subscription Price multiplied by
the maximum number of Rights which may be exercised (the "Subscription Excess"),
the Rights Offeree will have been deemed to have exercised its Over-Subscription
Right to purchase, except as provided in Section 8.2, that number of Units equal
to the quotient obtained by dividing the Subscription Excess by the Subscription
Price, up to the maximum number of Units purchasable by such Rights Offeree. The
Subscription Agent, as soon as practicable after the exercise of the Rights,
shall mail to such Rights Offerees any portion of the Subscription Excess not
applied to the purchase of Units pursuant to the Over-Subscription Right,
without interest or deduction.
Article VI
DELIVERY OF UNIT CERTIFICATES AND STOCK AND WARRANT CERTIFICATES
6.1 Delivery of Unit Certificates. As soon as practicable after the
Expiration Date, the Subscription Agent shall mail certificates representing the
Units subscribed for by the holders of the Rights. The certificates shall be
mailed to the subscribers' address as shown on the reverse side of the Rights
Certificate or, if none, then as listed on the Subscription Agent's register
(except that the Subscription Agent shall comply with any ancillary written
delivery instructions provided by any subscriber as long as the jurisdiction
named for delivery is not an Excluded Jurisdiction). The mailing shall include a
notice setting forth any adjustment in the Subscription Price and the number of
Units acquired as a result of any adjustment, and any refund for any Basic
Subscription Rights and/or Over-Subscription Rights exercised that was not
filled. The Subscription Agent shall maintain a mail loss surety bond protecting
the Company and the Subscription Agent from loss or liability arising out of
non-receipt or non-delivery of such certificates.
5
6.2 Delivery of Stock and Warrant Certificates. The Common Stock and
Warrants constituting a Unit are not separately transferable until _______, 2003
(the "Initial Exercise Date"), or such earlier date as may be determined by
Noble International Investments, Inc. (the "Underwriter") (the "Early Separation
Date") with at least ten days prior notice of such Early Separation Date (the
"Early Separation Date Notice"). Until the earlier of the Initial Exercise Date
or the Early Separation Date, the Common Stock and Warrants constituting a Unit
are transferable only by the transfer of the Unit Certificate. The Company shall
give the Early Separation Date Notice, if any, by filing a Form 8-K with the SEC
and issuing a press release announcing the Early Separation Date. On the earlier
of the Initial Exercise Date or the Early Separation Date (the "Separation
Date"), without any action required of the record holders of the Unit
Certificates, Company or other parties, the Unit Certificate shall automatically
be cancelled and, the record holder of such Units represented by such Unit
Certificates shall receive one share of Common Stock and one Common Stock
Purchase Warrant to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock for each
Unit held. As soon after the Separation Date as is practicable, the Subscription
Agent shall mail or otherwise deliver to the record holders of the Unit
Certificate at the close of business on the Separation Date, at the record
holder's address as shown on the Unit register, a certificate or certificates
(registered in the name of such record holder) for the shares of Common Stock
and Warrants to which such record holder is entitled.
Article VII
FRACTIONAL UNITS AND SHARES
7.1 Fractional Units and Shares. No fractional Units will be issued by
the Company. A Rights Certificate may not be divided in such a manner as would
permit the holders to subscribe for a greater number of Units than the number
for which they would be entitled to subscribe under the original Rights
Certificate. Rights Offerees, such as banks, securities dealers and brokers, who
receive Rights as nominees for one or more beneficial owners shall be entitled
to exercise their Rights Certificates on behalf of the beneficial owners.
Article VIII
PRORATIONS FOR BASIC SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS IF INSUFFICIENT UNITS AND EXERCISE OF
OVER SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS
8.1 Prorating of Basic Subscription Right if Insufficient Units. If
there are insufficient Units to fill all Basic Subscription Rights, the Units
that are available will be allocated to all Rights Offerees subscribing for
Basic Subscription Rights on a pro rata basis in proportion to the total number
of Basic Subscription Rights exercised by all such Rights Offerees subscribing
for Basic Subscription Rights.
6
8.2 Over-Subscription Right. If a Rights Offeree exercises his or her
Basic Subscription Right in full, the Rights Offeree may subscribe for
additional Units (the "Over-Subscription Right") at the Subscription Price. The
Subscription Agent shall determine the number of Units subscribed for pursuant
to the exercise of the Over-Subscription Right. If sufficient Units in excess of
all Units subscribed for pursuant to the exercise of Basic Subscription Rights
are available to satisfy all exercised Over-Subscription Rights, the
Subscription Agent shall fill all such exercised Over-Subscription Rights as and
to the same extent as if pursuant to the regular exercise of Basic Subscription
Rights. To the extent, however, that sufficient Units are not available to fill
all such exercised Over-Subscription Rights, the Units which are available to
fill exercised Over-Subscription Rights will be allocated among those exercising
Over-Subscription Rights on a pro rata basis in proportion to the total number
of Over-Subscription Rights exercised by all Rights Offerees exercising
Over-Subscription Rights. Those electing to exercise the Over-Subscription Right
must subscribe for such Units at the time of exercising the Basic Subscription
Rights. To exercise the Over-Subscription Right, the appropriate block on the
Rights Certificate form must be completed and payment in full for additional
Units must accompany the form and be submitted to the Subscription Agent at the
time the such Rights Offeree exercises the Basic Subscription Right.
8.3 Refund. In the event that any holder who exercises his or her Basic
Subscription Rights and/or Over-Subscription Rights does not receive the full
number of Units subscribed therefor, the Subscription Agent shall refund the
portion of the Subscription Price paid for the Units not received, without
interest, to such holder promptly after the Expiration Date.
Article IX
DEFECTIVE EXERCISE OF RIGHTS; LOST RIGHTS CERTIFICATES
9.1 Defective Exercise of Rights. The Company shall have the right to
reject any defective exercise of Rights or to waive any defect in exercise. If
the Company advises the Subscription Agent that the Company rejects any
defective exercise of Rights (except a failure to pay the full Subscription
Price with respect to such exercise), at the Company's request the Subscription
Agent shall as soon as practicable either (i) telephone the holder of such
Rights (at the telephone number on the reverse side of the Rights Certificate)
to explain the nature of the defect if the defect and the necessary correction
can be adequately explained by telephone and the holder can correct the defect
without possession of the Rights Certificates, or (ii) mail the Rights
Certificate to the holder, together with a letter explaining the nature of the
defect in exercise and how to correct the defect. If an exercise is not
defective except that there is a partial payment of the Subscription Price, the
Subscription Agent shall issue only the number of Units for which sufficient
payment has been made and seek additional payment for the remaining number of
Units for which the exercise of the underlying Rights had been attempted. Any
Rights Certificate with respect to which defects in exercise are not corrected
prior to 5:00 p.m., New York, New York time, on the Expiration Date, shall be
returned with any applicable tendered funds, to the holder of such Rights
Certificate.
7
9.2 Lost Rights Certificates. If any Rights Certificate is alleged to
have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Subscription Agent should follow the
same procedures followed for lost stock certificates representing shares of
Common Stock of the Company that the Company and the Subscription Agent in its
capacity as transfer agent for the Common Stock use, provided that such
procedure must be completed prior to the Expiration Date in order to be
effective.

procure supporting legal papers, and is authorized to dispense with proof of
authority to sign (including any proof of appointment or authority to sign of
any fiduciary, custodian for a minor, or other person acting in a representative

with exercise of the Rights in the following cases:
