The stock options attributed to Mr. Ronald Black are subject to conditions and to a special exercise calendar according to which, in the event of a negotiated merger, acquisition of the Company, or hostile takeover bid on the shares of the Company, that results in Mr. Ronald Black being terminated within six months following the operation or if Mr. Black is not offered an opportunity to perform functions of an equivalent level, he would have the right to exercise his options that would have become eligible for exercise two years following the date of such operation, provided that he uses this right within 90 days following his termination. The stock options of which the exercise could thus be accelerated were attributed on May 17, 2006 and can be exercised for 10.62 euros.

3.2.3 Convertible bonds

On July 13, 2007, Wavecom issued bonds convertible into and/or exchangeable for new or existing shares (“OCEANE”) due January 1, 2014. The principal amount of the issue was 80.5 million euros, in the form of 2,571,884 bonds with a par value of 31.30 euros each. The bonds bear interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum. The issuance of the OCEANEs was the object of a prospectus which received visa n^o 07-242 from the Autorité des marchés financiers.

3.3

Share repurchase program

At the Wavecom annual shareholders’ meeting held on May 14, 2008, the Board of Directors was authorized, for a period of 18 months starting on that date, to repurchase shares representing up to 10% of the Company’s share capital, i.e. a maximum of 1,579,659 shares. These purchases may take place on or off market, at any time, including during a period of tender offer for the shares of the Company, and may be effected by any means.

The purchase price per share may not exceed 30 euros, excluding fees and commissions, representing a maximum total amount of 47,389,770 euros.

The share repurchase program may be used, inter alia, for the purpose of:

(i)	making shares available to an investment services provider in order to provide volume in the shares on the stock market or enhance the liquidity of the shares under a liquidity contract conforming to the code of ethics recognized by the AMF;

(ii)	delivering shares upon the exercise of any convertible debt instruments;

(iii)

delivering shares to Wavecom’s senior managers and employees as well as to the senior managers and employees of the companies affiliated with it, within the framework of stock option plans, free share plans pursuant to the conditions defined in articles L.225-197-1 to L.225-197-3 or Company savings plans pursuant to the conditions defined in articles L.443-1 et seq. of the French Labor Code;

(iv)	holding the shares so as to deliver them in payment or in exchange in connection with external growth projects;

(v)	cancelling the shares within a limit of 10% of the share capital of the Company for each 24 month period.

The number of shares acquired by the Company with a view to holding them for later delivery as consideration or in exchange in the event of a merger, de-merger, or conveyance transaction, may not exceed 5% of the Company’s share capital.

Wavecom’s Board of Directors met on July 22, 2008, to sub-delegate to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer the authority to utilize the share repurchase program in view of cancelling the shares, subject to a later decision by the Board of Directors regarding this objective.

Between July and September 2008, the share repurchase program resulted in the acquisition (on and off market) by the Company of a total of 700,212 shares, representing 4.4% of its share capital. In application of its share repurchase program, during the course of the past 60 days, the Company undertook the following transactions:


Identity of Person	Date of Transaction	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Price per Share	Nature of Transaction
Wavecom	09/01/2008	16,372	€4.9056	Share buyback

Wavecom	09/12/2008	14,723	€4.5280	Share buyback

Following these share repurchases, on December 15, 2008, the Company held 1,091,861 shares representing 6.9% of its share capital on a non-diluted basis.

3.4

Share capital reduction authorization

Wavecom shareholders’ meeting held on May 14, 2008, satisfying the quorum and voting majority requirements for extraordinary shareholders’ meetings, authorized the Board of Directors to reduce the share capital by up to 10% for each 24 month period, by cancelling Company shares that it might hold under the share repurchase program.

The present authorization was granted for a period of 18 months as from such meeting and terminated the authorization granted by the combined shareholders’ meeting held on May 16, 2007, as provided by the eleventh resolution passed at the meeting.

3.5

Authorizations to increase share capital

The shareholders’ meeting held on May 14, 2008 authorized the Board of Directors:

•

for a period of 26 months, to decide on one or several, immediate and/or future share capital increases by issuing, in France or abroad, ordinary shares of the Company or any securities granting access by any means, whether immediately and/or in the future, to the share capital of the Company or to the share capital of any company which may, directly or indirectly, hold more than half of its share capital or of which it may, directly or indirectly, hold more than half of the share capital, while respecting the shareholders’ preferential subscription right, without exceeding a total limit of 7,000,000 euros (eleventh resolution);

•

for a period of 26 months, to proceed, in France or abroad, with one or several immediate and/or future share capital increases by way of a public issuance, by issuing ordinary shares of the Company or any securities granting access by any means, whether immediately and/or

in the future, to the Company’s share capital or the share capital of any company which may, directly or indirectly, hold more than half of its share capital, while cancelling the shareholders’ preferential subscription right, without exceeding a total limit of 7,000,000 euros (twelfth resolution);

•

for a period of 26 months, to increase the amount of any issuance, with or without preferential subscription rights, that may be decided pursuant to the terms of the eleventh and twelfth resolutions above, pursuant to the conditions defined in article L. 225-135-1 of the French Code of Commerce (to such date, within 30 days following the closing of the subscription period and within the limit of 15% of the initial issuance). The nominal amount of any share capital increase decided pursuant to this resolution will be applied against the total limit of 7,000,000 euros common to all share capital increases that might be realized pursuant to the eleventh and twelfth resolutions above (thirteenth resolution);

•

for a period of 26 months, to issue ordinary shares and/or securities granting access to the Company’s share capital in consideration for securities contributed to the Company within the framework of a public exchange offer or contributions in kind made to the Company within the limit of a total amount of 7,000,000 euros. The present authorization to increase the capital will be applied against the maximum amount in the eleventh resolution voted at the combined shareholders’ meeting held on May 14, 2008; and

•

for a period of 26 months, to proceed, to one or several share capital increases, by incorporating, into the share capital, all or part of the premiums, reserves, profits or other means of which capitalization will be allowed by law and as per the articles of incorporation, in the form of allocation of free shares or by increasing the nominal value of existing shares, or else by combined use of those two procedures, within the limits of the amount of the accounts relating to premiums, reserves, benefits or other items mentioned above, existing at the time of the share capital increase (fifteenth resolution).

Moreover, it is specified that none of the resolutions voted at the combined shareholders’ meeting held on May 14, 2008, mentions the possibility of using the authorizations granted to the Board of Directors during a tender offer. Therefore, these authorizations cannot be used in the context of the current Offer resulting from the filing of Sierra Wireless’s Offer for the shares and OCEANEs of the Company.

No issuance of shares or other securities giving right to Wavecom’s capital pursuant to these authorizations is in process or currently contemplated.

Agreements between the Company and its Directors

The Company and Ronald Black, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, are party to a service agreement, dated July 22, 2004, as amended in 2006 (the “Service Agreement”). The terms of his compensation were further modified in 2008 as explained below.

Pursuant to the Service Agreement, Mr. Black shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans of the Company including, but not limited to pension, profit sharing, medical coverage, education, or other retirement or welfare benefits that the Company has adopted or may adopt, maintain or contribute to for the benefit of its senior executives at a comparable level subject to satisfying the applicable eligibility requirements.

For the calendar year ended December 31, 2008, Mr. Black’s fixed base compensation rate is 421,500 euros and, pursuant to a decision of Wavecom’s Board of Directors dated June 17, 2008, he could receive up to 401,000 euros as a performance bonus. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2007, Mr. Black’s fixed base compensation was 421,500 euros and Mr. Black received a bonus of 281,000 euros. Mr. Black also receives benefits in kind due to his expatriation, including housing and indemnities covering his children’s school tuition. Mr. Black has also received equity based compensation subject to a specific vesting calendar and acceleration provisions in the event of a change in control. (See table in section 3.2.2.4)

The Board of Directors of Wavecom also decided on June 17, 2008, that a special bonus equal to Mr. Black’s annual fixed and variable salary for one year is triggered upon the acquisition of the Company or a change of control through a tender offer at a price which represents a premium of greater than 40% of the trading price on the date of the filing of the offer. A successful completion of the Sierra Wireless Offer would result in payment of the bonus.

In the event of a negotiated merger, acquisition of the Company, or hostile takeover bid on the Shares of the Company that results in Mr. Ronald Black being terminated within six months following this event, and if Mr. Black is not offered an opportunity to perform functions of an equivalent level, the Company has undertaken to pay Mr. Ronald Black a severance payment (except in case of gross or wrongful misconduct). The gross amount of this severance payment is equal to three times his annual fixed salary (approximately 1,264,500 euros based on Mr. Black’s annual fixed salary for the calendar year ended December 31, 2008), including the severance payment provided by law and any applicable collective bargaining agreements.

The Company’s Board of Directors, after hearing the findings presented by the chairman of the Company’s Nomination and Compensation Committee, decided on November 17, 2008 to amend the terms and conditions of the service agreement relating to this severance payment, to, among other things, make the severance payment described in the Service Agreement contingent on performance criteria as follows, each of which must be met at the time of Mr. Black’s departure in order for his severance to be payable:

- The Company’s activity having generated a greater net cash balance (i.e., cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities less long-term and short-term debt) at the time of Mr. Black’s departure than such balance three years earlier (on the basis of the most recent quarterly closing and excluding the effects of any exceptional business expenditures, such as, for example, the financing of an acquisition), and

- The Company having remained in the top three leaders of its market, as recognized by any market analyst (such as Gartner or ABI) in the three years preceding Mr. Black’s departure from the Company.

In addition, in order to more properly reflect the mutual understanding of Mr. Black and the Company’s Board of Directors as to the circumstances under which the severance payment becomes payable, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Service Agreement to provide that Mr. Black is entitled to the severance payment described above if he resigns within six (6) months following a change in control of the Company.

Pursuant to article L.225-42-1 of the French Commercial Code these commitments must be submitted to the shareholders for their approval during a shareholders’ meeting.

As announced by the Company in the notice published in the Bulletien des annonces légales obligatoires on December 5, 2008, the shareholders’ meeting of the Company scheduled for December 8, 2008, called to, among other things, approve those commitments, was adjourned.

Sierra Wireless approved in the Memorandum of Understanding, signed on December 1, 2008 with the Company, the terms and conditions of these commitments and as a result, undertook to have the new board of directors of the Company which will be put in place following the change in control, to confirm such commitments and vote in favor of their approval at the first general shareholders’ meeting to take place following the expiration of the Offers.

Other than those described above, there are no other engagements taken by the Company with respect to its Directors.

8.	COMPLEMENTARY INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

8.1.

Disputes

Other than what is described by the Company in its Reference Document for 2007 and the litigation described below, and for the 12 months preceding the publication of this document, Wavecom is not aware of any governmental, judicial or arbitral procedures (including any pending or threatened procedures known to the Company) that could have or that recently had significant effects on the financial situation or the profitability of the Company. Since early December 2008, the Company (and its subsidiary Wavecom Inc.) have been involved in litigation with a contract counterparty, Temic Automotive of North America (Continental Group) which has unjustly withheld payment of a total of slightly more than two million US dollars (i.e. 1,496,140 euros calculated using the dollar/euro exchange rate of 0.748) for products sold by the Company (through its subsidiary Wavecom Inc.). This amount will be accrued as a bad debt in the fourth quarter 2008 accounts. In this context, the Company and its subsidiary Wavecom Inc. filed suit against this client in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (USA) to recover the unpaid receivables. The client, Continental Group, filed a separate suit in state court in North Carolina against the Company, asserting eight claims for relief, alleging breach of both tort and contracts law. Continental has requested damages under the main claim of 1.5 million US dollars (i.e. 1,122,047 euros calculated using the dollar/euro exchange rate of 0.748) to be determined at trial, which is on the same scale as the amount of the unpaid receivables. On the other claims, Continental requests damages of a minimum of 10,000 US dollars each (i.e 7,480 euros calculated using the dollar/euro exchange rate of 0.748) to be determined at trial, and has also requested treble damages on one claim and punitive damages. While the Company believes such claims to be unfounded and dilatory and it intends to vigorously litigate this matter, the Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any litigation.

8.2

Financial results calendar

The Company intends to publish its fourth quarter and full year 2008 revenues and results on February 5, 2009.
