The Company and the Investor hereby agree as follows:
1. SUBSCRIPTION FOR SECURITIES. I (sometimes referred to herein as the
"Investor") hereby subscribe for and agree to purchase $________________ of the
securities being offered by the Company described on SCHEDULE 1 hereto
("Securities") upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and

Xxxxxxxx, as placement agent for the Company (i) the full purchase price for all
Securities subscribed for by me by check or wire in accordance with the
instructions set forth on SCHEDULE 1, and (ii) two manually executed copies of
this Subscription Agreement. Prior to the earlier of a Closing (as defined in
Section 5 hereof) or the Termination Date, my wire transfer will be held by X.X.
Xxxxxxxx in a non-interest bearing bank, segregated bank account subject to the
terms and conditions herein. If the Company does not receive and accept the
minimum subscriptions required to have a Closing as set forth on SCHEDULE 1 by
the Termination Date, my payment will be returned to me without interest or
deduction.
4. ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION OF SUBSCRIPTION. The Company and X.X.
Xxxxxxxx have the right to reject this subscription for the Securities, in whole
or in part, for any reason and at any time prior to the Closing, notwithstanding
prior receipt by me of notice of acceptance of my subscription. In the event of
the rejection of this subscription, my payment will be returned promptly to me
without interest or deduction and, if my subscription is rejected in whole, this
Subscription Agreement will have no force or effect. The Securities subscribed
for herein will not be deemed issued to or owned by me until two copies of this

and the Closing with respect to my subscription has occurred.
5. CLOSING AND DELIVERY OF SECURITIES. A closing ("Closing") may occur

forth on SCHEDULE 1. In the event my subscription is accepted and there is a
Closing, my payment will be released to the Company and the certificates
representing the Securities will be delivered promptly to me along with a fully
executed version of this Agreement.
6. OFFERING TO ACCREDITED INVESTORS. This offering is limited to
accredited investors as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), and is being made
without registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemptions
contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws. As indicated by my responses on page 7 or 8 hereof, I am an
"accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 promulgated thereunder. 1.
7. INVESTOR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. I acknowledge, represent
and warrant to the Company and X.X. Xxxxxxxx as follows:
7.1 Obligations of the Company and the Investor. The Company has no
obligation to me other than as set forth in this Agreement, including but not
limited to the obligations described in Section 7.1 of SCHEDULE 1. I have read
and agree to the restrictions set forth in Section 7.1 of SCHEDULE 1. I am aware
that, except for any rescission rights that may be provided under applicable
laws, I am not entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this subscription, and
any agreements made in connection herewith will survive my death or disability.
In order to induce the Company to issue and sell the Securities to me, I
represent and warrant that the information relating to me stated herein is true
and complete as of the date hereof and will be true and complete as of the date
on which my purchase of Securities becomes effective. If, prior to the final
consummation of the offer and sale of the Securities, there should be any change
in such information or any of such information becomes incorrect or incomplete,
I agree to notify the Company and supply the Company promptly with corrective
information.
7.2 Information About the Company.
(1) I have read the confidential private placement memorandum
relating to this offering ("Memorandum") and all exhibits listed
therein and fully understand the Memorandum, including the Section
entitled "Risk Factors" and the Memorandum's exhibits. I have been
given access to full and complete information regarding the Company and
have utilized such access to my satisfaction for the purpose of
verifying the information included in the Memorandum and exhibits
thereto, and I have either met with or been given reasonable
opportunity to meet with officers of the Company for the purpose of
asking reasonable questions of such officers concerning the terms and
conditions of the offering of the Securities and the business and
operations of the Company and all such questions have been answered to
my full satisfaction. I have also been given an opportunity to obtain
any additional relevant information to the extent reasonably available
to the Company. I have received all information and materials regarding
the Company that I have reasonably requested. After my reading of the
materials about the Company, I understand that there is no assurance as
to the future performance of the Company.
(2) I have received no representation or warranty from the
Company or X.X. Xxxxxxxx or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or agents in respect of my investment in the
Company. I (i) have not seen any advertisement, article, notice or
other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar
media or broadcast over television, radio or the Internet and (ii) have
not participated in any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been
invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.
7.3 Speculative Investment. I am aware that the Securities are a
speculative investment that involves a high degree of risk including, but not
limited to, the risk of losses from operations of the Company and the total loss
of my investment. I have such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in
the Securities and have obtained, in my judgment, sufficient information from
the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Company. I
have either used a purchaser representative (as defined in Regulation D) or I do
not require any person to serve as my purchaser representative (as defined in
Regulation D) in connection with evaluating such merits and risks as I am
capable of relying on my own investigation in making a decision to invest in the
Company. I have been advised to seek independent advice from my professional
advisors relating to the suitability of an investment in the Company in view of
my overall financial needs and with respect to the legal and tax implications of
such investment. I believe that the investment in the Securities is suitable for
me based upon my investment objectives and financial needs, and I have adequate
means for providing for my current financial needs and contingencies and have no
need for liquidity with respect to my investment in the Company. The investment
in the Company will not constitute a substantial part of my investment
portfolio.
7.4 Restrictions on Transfer. I understand that (i) the Securities
have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of
certain states in reliance on specific exemptions from registration, (ii) no
securities administrator of any state or the federal government has recommended
or endorsed this offering or made any finding or determination relating to the
fairness of an investment in the Company, and (iii) the Company is relying on my
representations and agreements for the purpose of determining whether this
transaction meets the requirements of the exemptions afforded by the Securities
Act and applicable state securities laws. I acknowledge that there is no
assurance that the Company will file any Registration Statement for the
Securities I am purchasing, that such Registration Statement, if filed, will be
declared effective or, if declared effective, that the Company will be able to
keep it effective until I sell the securities registered thereon.
7.5 No Market for Securities. I am purchasing the Securities for my
own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection
with, any subsequent distribution of the Securities, nor with any present
intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any part of the
Securities. I understand that, although there is a public market for the Common
Stock included in the Securities, there is no assurance that such market will
continue and there is no market at present for the Units themselves or the
Warrants included in the Securities and it is unlikely that a market will ever
develop for these two securities in the future (the term Securities will be
deemed hereinafter to include the underlying securities). I agree that (i) the
purchase of the Securities is a long-term investment, (ii) I may have to bear
the economic risk of investment for an indefinite period of time because the
Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may never be
registered and, cannot be resold, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of
unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under
applicable securities laws of certain states, or an exemption from such
registration is available. I understand that the Company is under no obligation
to register the Securities, except as may be set forth in Section 7.1 of
SCHEDULE 1, or to assist me in complying with any exemption from such
registration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. I hereby
authorize the Company to place a legend denoting the restrictions on the
certificates representing the Securities and corresponding "stop transfer"
instructions with respect to the Securities.
7.6 Entity Authority. If the Investor is a corporation, limited
liability company, partnership, company, trust, employee benefit plan,
individual retirement account, Xxxxx Plan or other tax-exempt entity, it is
authorized and qualified to become an investor in the Company and the person
signing this Subscription Agreement on behalf of such entity has been duly
authorized
3
by such entity to do so and to carry out such subscriber's obligations under the
Subscription Agreement, including making such entity's representations and
warranties made hereby.

7.9 No Offer Until Determination of Suitability. I acknowledge that

an offer of the Securities until such determination of suitability is made.
7.10 For Florida Residents. The Securities have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Florida Securities Act, by
reason of specific exemptions thereunder relating to the limited availability of
the Offering. The Securities cannot be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed
of to any person or entity unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act of Florida, if such registration

Subsection 517.061(11) of the Florida Securities Act will be voidable by such
Florida purchaser either within three days after the first tender of
consideration is made by the purchaser to the issuer, an agent of the issuer, or
an escrow agent, or within three days after the availability of the privilege is
communicated to such purchaser, whichever occurs later. This constitutes such
communication. In addition, as required by Section 517.061(11) (a)(3), Florida
Statutes and by Rule 3-500.05(a) thereunder, if I am a Florida resident I have
had, at the offices of the Company, at any reasonable hour, after reasonable
notice, access to the materials set forth in the Rule that the Company can
obtain without unreasonable effort or expense.

employees, agents, and attorneys against any and all losses, claims, demands,
liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal or other expenses incurred
by each such person in connection with defending or investigating any such
claims or liabilities, whether or not resulting in any liability to such person
or whether incurred by the indemnified party in any action or proceeding between
the indemnitor and indemnified party or between the indemnified party and any
third party) to which any such indemnified party may become subject, insofar as
such losses, claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (a) arise out of or are
based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
made by me and contained herein or omission to make a statement made herein not
misleading, or (b) arise out of or are based upon any breach by me of any
representation, warranty, or agreement made by me contained herein. X.X.
Xxxxxxxx is a third-party beneficiary of this Section and this Section may not
be modified or amended without the prior written agreement of X.X. Xxxxxxxx.
9. SEVERABILITY; REMEDIES. In the event any parts of this Subscription

Agreement are nevertheless binding with the same effect as though the void parts
were deleted.

Subscription Agreement may be by actual or facsimile signature.

SCHEDULE 1
1. Subscription. TII INDUSTRIES, INC. is offering a minimum of 1,300,000
and a maximum of 1,800,000 Units, each consisting of one share of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), and
one Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant ("Warrant"). The per-Unit
offering price shall be equal to 75% of the average of the mean between
the closing bid and closing asked prices for the Common Stock for the
five consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day prior to
the closing of the Offering (100% of such average being referred to as
the "Market Price"), with a minimum offering price of $1.75 and maximum
offering price of $3.00. Each investor must subscribe for a minimum of
$50,000, although a lower amount may be accepted in the discretion of
the Company and X.X. Xxxxxxxx. The actual number of Units each Investor
will receive will be based upon the actual per-Unit offering price. Any
monies deposited by an Investor in excess of such Investor's actual
accepted investment will be promptly returned without interest or
deduction following the Closing. The form of the Warrant is attached as
Exhibit B to the Memorandum.
2. Offering Period. The Company is offering the Securities until the
earlier of (i) the date by which 1,800,000 Units are sold, or (ii) June
29, 2000, unless such newer date is extended, which may be without
notice, to the Investor, by the mutual consent of X.X. Xxxxxxxx and the
Company to a date not later than August 14, 2000 ("Termination Date").
3. Purchase. You must remit payment of the amount subscribed for as

4. Not applicable.
5. Closing. In order to close this Offering, the Company must receive and
accept subscriptions for a minimum of 1,300,000 Units on or before the
Termination Date. A Closing (the "Closing") will be held promptly
following the earlier of the
11
acceptance of subscriptions for 1,800,000 Units and, provided at least
1,300,000 Units are sold, the Termination Date.
6. Not applicable
7.1 Obligations of the Company and the Investor.
1. Registration Rights.
(a) Mandatory Registration. The Company shall file, within 45
days after the Closing, a Registration Statement ("Registration
Statement") under the Securities Act and make appropriate filings under
"blue sky" laws in such states as X.X. Xxxxxxxx shall reasonably
specify, registering for resale the Common Stock and Warrants included
in the Units and the "Extra Warrants" referred to below and the Common
Stock underlying the Warrants and the Extra Warrants, and, to the
extent permitted, registering the issuance of such Common Stock upon
the exercise of the Warrants and Extra Warrants, as the case may be
(collectively, the "Registrable Securities"). The Company shall use its
best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective by
the 180th day after the Closing ("Target Date"). If the Registration
Statement is not declared effective by the SEC by the Target Date, then
on the Target Date and on each monthly anniversary of the Target Date
thereafter until the earlier of the effective date of the Registration
Statement ("Effective Date") or the nineteenth monthly anniversary of
the Target Date, the Company shall issue to each purchaser of Units in
the Offering, Warrants ("Extra Warrants") to purchase a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to 5% of the number of Warrants purchased
by him in the Offering. The Extra Warrants shall have the same terms as
the Warrants included in the Units sold in the Offering. The Company
shall keep the Registration Statement current and effective until all
the securities registered thereunder are sold or can be sold freely
under an appropriate exemption under the Securities Act and the "blue
sky" laws of the states reasonably specified by X.X. Xxxxxxxx, without
limitation. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses incurred by
the Company in connection with the preparation of the Registration
Statement and filing it with the SEC and the NASD, including the fees
(no more than $15,000) and disbursement of one special counsel for all
of the holders of the Registrable Securities in connection with the
registration of the Registration Securities and the preparation,
filing, modifying and amending of the Registration Statement. X.X.
Xxxxxxxx has selected Graubard Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx as such special counsel
and the investor acknowledges and agrees to this selection.
(b) "Piggy-back" Registration. If at any time commencing 180
days after the Closing, if the Registration Statement referred to in
7.1 (a) above shall not be effective, and the Company shall file a
registration statement (excluding registration statements on Forms S-4
and S-8), the holders of the Registrable Securities shall have the
right to include the Registrable Securities in such registration
statement. If the registration statement is filed in connection with an
underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, and the managing
underwriters advise the Company in writing that, in their good faith
opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such
registration statement exceeds the number which can be sold in such
offering, the Company will include in such registration statement the
Registrable Securities provided that such holders agree not to sell any
of such Registrable Securities for a period of 90 days from the
effective date of such Registration Statement without the prior consent
of such managing underwriter. The Company shall keep the Registration
Statement
12
effective and current until the earlier of the date by which all the
securities registered thereunder have been sold or can be sold freely
under an appropriate exemption under the Securities Act.
(c) Indemnification by Company. The Company shall indemnify
the Holders of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to any
registration statement hereunder, the officers and directors of each
Holder and each person, if any, who controls such Holders within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), or any
state securities law or regulation, against all loss, claim, damage,
expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys' fees and
other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or
defending against any claim whatsoever incurred by the indemnified
party in any action or proceeding between the indemnitor and
indemnified party or between the indemnified party and any third party
or otherwise) to which any of them may become subject under the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law,
arising from such registration statement or based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
(i) any preliminary prospectus, the registration statement or
prospectus (as from time to time each may be amended and supplemented);
(ii) any post-effective amendment or amendments or any new registration
statement and prospectus in which is included the Underlying Common
Shares; or (iii) any application or other document or written
communication (collectively called "application") executed by the
Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in
any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Underlying Common Shares under
the securities laws thereof or filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, any state securities commission or agency, Nasdaq or any
securities exchange; or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, unless such statement or omission is made in
reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished to
the Company by and with respect to such registered holders ("Purchaser
Information") expressly for use in any preliminary prospectus, the
registration statement or prospectus (including any new registration
and prospectus), or any amendment (including any post-effective
amendment) or supplement thereof, or in any application, as the case
may be, or unless the indemnities failed to deliver a final prospectus
in which the material misstatement or omission was corrected. The
Company agrees promptly to notify such Holders of the commencement of
any litigation or proceedings against the Company or any of its
officers, directors or controlling persons in connection with the issue
and sale or resale of the Underlying Common Shares or in connection
with the registration statement or prospectus.
(d) Successors and Assigns. The registration rights granted to
the holders of the Registrable Securities inure to the benefit of all
the holders' successors, heirs, pledges, assignees, transferees and
purchasers of any of the Registrable Securities.
(e) Permissible Delays and Exceptions
(i) The Company shall be entitled to postpone the filing of
any Registration Statement otherwise required to be prepared and filed
by it (other than the Registration Statement required under Section
7.1.1(a) of this Schedule 1) or suspend keeping any Registration
Statement or
13
prospectus current and/or effective without suspending such
effectiveness by instructing the holders of Registrable Securities not
to sell any Registrable Securities included in any such Registration
Statement for a period not to exceed 15 calendar days in any
consecutive 120-day period and not to exceed 23 calendar days in any
consecutive 365-day period, if the Company would be required to
disclose in such Registration Statement any material business
situation, transaction or negotiation not otherwise disclosed as to
which the Company's Board of Directors has determined, in good faith,
that valid, significant and material business reasons exist that
warrant that such information not be disclosed and, in the opinion of
counsel to the Company, such disclosure would be required in the
Registration Statement to keep the corresponding prospectus current.
Nothing in this Section 7.1.1(e) shall relieve the Company of its
obligation to issue Extra Warrants pursuant to Section 7.1.1(a) of this
Schedule 1.
(ii) The Company shall not be obligated to include in any
Registration Statement the Registrable Securities held by any holder
thereof unless such holder has furnished to the Company in writing the
information regarding such holder required by law to be disclosed in
such Registration Statement pursuant to Sections 507 and 508 of
Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.
