PART I

Item 1. Description of Business

General

Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp ("Tel" or the "Company") has been in business since 1947. Tel is a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement solutions for the global commercial air transport, general aviation, and government/military aerospace and defense markets. The Company provides instruments to test, measure, calibrate, and repair a wide range of airborne navigation and communication equipment.

In January, 2004, the Company acquired privately held Innerspace Technology, Inc. ("ITI"). ITI has been in the marine systems business for over 30 years designing, manufacturing, and distributing a variety of shipboard and underwater instruments to support hydrographers, oceanographers, researchers, engineers, geophysicists, and surveyors worldwide. References to the Company or Tel include ITI unless the context requires otherwise (see Note 16 to Financial Statements - Segment Information).

In recent years, the Company significantly improved its financial condition and market position, and firmly established itself as one of the leading suppliers in the avionics test equipment industry. In 2004, revenues decreased on a year to year basis for the first time in over five years. For the year ended March 31, 2004, sales declined 10% from the prior year, but were still 10% higher than revenues for 2002. The decrease in sales in 2004 is primarily attributed to the reduced shipments of the AN/APM-480 to the U.S. Navy and delays in other government procurement programs. The Company, in agreement with the U.S. Navy, temporarily decreased the number of units shipped in anticipation of these units being returned for the planned upgrades and enhancements. The total number of units under contract did not change and remained at 1,300 units. As of March 31, 2004, 1,153 units of the AN/APM-480 have been shipped. This decline in shipments was partially offset by an increase in commercial sales, primarily as a result of the introduction of the TR-220/210 family of products. As a result of reduced revenues and increased engineering, research, and development and marketing costs, net income for the year was lower than the previous year.

The acquisition of ITI was the Company's first step in its strategy to pursue growth and diversification through acquisitions and alliances of compatible businesses or technologies. The Company is attempting to increase ITI's sales by expanding distribution and enhancing marketing and product development.

The Company continues to invest in new product development. Engineering, research, and development expenditures increased 35% for the year ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the previous year, and represented 20% of total sales for the current fiscal year as compared to 14% for the prior fiscal year.

The Company has been active in responding to customer requests for quotation, and continues to pursue opportunities in both the commercial and government markets, both domestically and internationally.

Item 1. Description of Business

General (Continued)

The Company also continues its efforts with Semaphore Capital Advisors LLC and Investment Partners Group, investment bankers, to pursue growth and diversification through acquisitions and alliances of compatible businesses or technologies.

Tel's instruments are used to test navigation and communications equipment installed in aircraft, both on the flight line ("ramp testers") and in the maintenance shop ("bench testers"), and range in list price from $7,900 to $85,000 per unit. Tel continues to develop new products in anticipation of customers' needs, in order to continue to strengthen its market position. Its development of multifunction testers, for example, has made it easier for customers to perform ramp tests with less operator training, and lower product support costs. In recent years the Company has become a major manufacturer and supplier of IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) flight line test equipment, discussed below. The Company is currently working on the next generation of IFF test sets in anticipation of U.S. and NATO requirements for more sophisticated IFF testing, and which will provide the foundation technology for future products.

The AN/APM-480 is a militarized avionics ramp tester used to simulate IFF Transponder/Interrogator and TCAS (Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance system) functions to provide "go, no-go" testing of avionics in military aircraft, on the flight line and aircraft carrier deck. The Company has begun development of the next generation of more sophisticated IFF testers in anticipation that the U.S. Navy will issue a contract in the future to upgrade the AN/APM-480 units. Although there is no assurance that the Company will receive any such contracts to upgrade the AN/APM 480, which may be issued by the U.S. Navy, the Company believes that it is well positioned to obtain such contracts.

The introduction of the TR-220 Multi-Function tester has been very successful. The TR-220 has the capability to test TCAS, Distance Measuring Equipment (DME), and Transponders (Mode A, C and S) for commercial aircraft fitted with these avionics systems, as required by the FAA. In addition, the test set transmits and receives Mode S 1090 MHz extended squitter (unsolicited broadcast transmissions which state the aircraft's three-dimensional location and direction and velocity of its flight path), which are officially labeled Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) and also transmits Traffic Information System (TIS) intruder flight data. The TR-220 also provides test capability for Mode S Elementary and Enhanced Surveillance Transponders which are currently being introduced to meet the new European requirements.

Innerspace Technology, Inc. ("ITI") is a leading designer and manufacturer of marine instrumentation systems, including depth sounders and tide gauges, and is a systems integrator to support hydrographers, oceanographers, researchers, engineers, geophysicists, and surveyors worldwide with components, complete turnkey systems, and equipment rentals. To assist in providing a full-function system for its customers, ITI is an authorized dealer of Trimble Global Positioning System (GPS) products.

A depth sounder is an instrument that uses an acoustic transmitter and receiver to measure sonic travel time from the transmitter to the sea floor and back to the receiver, in order to map the contour of the sea floor. ITI offers these products with both single and dual frequency operation, and ITI's products range in price from approximately $5,000 to $20,000.

Marketing and Distribution

Domestic commercial sales are made directly or through distributors. No direct commercial customer accounted for more than 10% of commercial sales in 2004, 2003, and 2002. There are no written agreements with domestic distributors, who receive a 15%-20% discount for stocking, selling, and, in some cases, supporting these products. Tel gives a 5% to 10% discount to non-stocking distributors, and to independent sales representatives, depending on their sales volume and promotional effort. One domestic distributor (Avionics International) accounted for approximately 8%, 13%, and 19% of commercial sales for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively. In addition, another domestic distributor (Aero Express) accounted for 26% of commercial sales in each of the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.

Marketing to the U.S. Government is made directly by employees of the Company or through independent sales representatives, who receive commissions.

International sales are made direct, through American export agents, or through the Company's distributors at a discount reflecting a 20% selling commission, under written or oral, year-to-year arrangements. The Company has an exclusive distribution agreements with Muirhead Avionics and Accessories, Ltd, based in the United Kingdom, to represent the Company in parts of Europe and with Milspec Services in Australia and New Zealand. Muirhead accounted for approximately 20% of commercial sales for the year ended March 31, 2004. Tel also sells its products through exclusive distributors in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, and the Far East and is exploring distribution in other areas. For the years ended March 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, foreign commercial sales were 31%, 24%, and 20%, respectively, of total commercial sales. Additionally, the Company entered into an agreement with M.P.G. Instruments s.r.l., wherein this distributor has the exclusive sales rights for DME/P ramp and bench test units. The Company continues to explore additional marketing opportunities in other parts of the world, including the Far East. The Company has no material assets overseas.

Tel also provides customers with calibration and repair services.

Future domestic market growth will be affected in part on whether the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) implements plans to upgrade the U.S. air traffic control system and on continuing recent trends towards more sophisticated avionics systems, both of which would require the design and manufacture of new test equipment. The Company continues to analyze the needs of the market, to develop new and improved instruments to meet emerging FAA requirements, and to redesign models to add functions and reduce the cost. The Company believes its test equipment is recognized by its customers for its quality, durability, reliability, and affordability.

Marine Systems

Most ITI sales of marine instrumentation products are made directly to customers. ITI has embarked on an extensive marketing campaign, including advertising in most trade journals and attendance at trade shows, to increase its product exposure in the industry.

Backlog

Set forth below is Tel's backlog, including an immaterial amount for ITI in 2004, at March 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002.

                                       Commercial   Government     Total
                                       ----------   ----------     -----

March 31, 2004                          $496,156    $2,922,491  $3,418,647
March 31, 2003                          $869,930    $6,072,504  $6,942,434
March 31, 2002                          $186,690    $8,346,557  $8,533,247

Tel believes that most of the backlog at March 31, 2004 will be delivered during the next 12-18 months. Reduction in backlog is a result of having delivered approximately 89% of the 1,300 units ordered by the U.S. Navy for the AN/APM-480 IFF test sets and delays in other government procurement programs. Historically, orders received by the Company, other than for larger programs like the AN/APM-480, are received and shipped within the year and, as such, are not reflected in year-end backlog.

All of the backlog is pursuant to purchase orders and all of the government contracts are fully funded. However, government contracts are always susceptible to termination by the government for convenience.

Suppliers

Tel and ITI obtain its purchased parts from a number of suppliers. These materials are standard in the industry and Tel foresees no difficulty in obtaining purchased parts, as needed, at acceptable prices.

Competition

Avionics

The Company manufactures and sells commercial and military products as a single avionics business.

Civilian Markets

The general aviation market consists of some 1,000 avionics repair and maintenance service shops, at private and commercial airports in the United States, which purchase test equipment to assist in the repair of aircraft electronics. The commercial aviation operator market consists of approximately 80 domestic and foreign commercial airlines.

The civilian market for avionic test equipment is dominated by three manufacturers, including Tel, IFR, a division of Aeroflex, Inc., and JC Air, a division of Goodrich Corporation. This market is relatively small and highly competitive. Tel has been successful because of its high quality products, competitive prices, and responsive service.

Item 1. Description of Business

General (Continued)

Competition (Continued)

Military Markets

The military market is large and is dominated by large corporations with substantially greater resources than the Company. Tel competitively bids for government contracts on the basis of the uniqueness of its products and "small business set asides" (i.e., statutory provisions requiring the military to entertain bids only from statutorily defined small businesses), and on bids for sub-contracts from major government suppliers. The military market consists of many independent purchasing agencies and offices.

In recent years the Company has become an important supplier for the U.S. Military, as well as the NATO countries, for flight line IFF test equipment. The Company is currently working on the next generation of IFF test sets.

Marine Systems

The market for marine instrumentation systems is small and is dominated by five major manufacturers, including Innerspace Technology, Inc. (wholly owned by Tel), Odom Hydrographic Systems, Inc., Knudsen Engineering Limited, Simrad AS (a division of Kongsberg), and Reson AS. There are approximately another five companies that compete on a smaller scale. The Company is able to compete based upon its reputation in the industry, the quality of its products, and its responsive service.

Patents

Tel has no patents or licenses which are material to its business.

Engineering, Research, and Development

In the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, Tel spent $2,152,515, $1,601,493, and $1,521,219, respectively, on the engineering, research, and development of new and improved products. None of these amounts was sponsored by customers. Tel's management believes that continued significant expenditures for engineering, research, and development are necessary to enable Tel to expand its sales and profits. Approximately 26% of 2004 revenues are attributed to products developed by Tel in the last two years.

The increase in expenditures is the result of an increase in staff and the Company's development efforts. Engineering, research, and development expenditures in 2004 were directed primarily to the continued development of the next generation of IFF test sets, the development of a multi-function commercial bench tester (TB-2100), the development of a foundation technology for future products, and the incorporation of other product enhancements. The Company owns all of these designs.

Personnel

At June 10, 2004, Tel had 25 employees in manufacturing, materials management, and quality assurance, 15 in administration and sales, and 13 in engineering, research and development, none of whom belongs to a union. While the job market is tight for technical personnel, Tel has generally been able to add personnel as required. At June 9, 2004, the Company utilized 8 part-time individuals in manufacturing and several part-time consultants on an as needed basis.

Item 2. Properties

The Company leases 19,564 square feet in Carlstadt, New Jersey as its manufacturing plant and administrative offices, pursuant to a ten-year lease expiring in February, 2011 (see Note 13 to the Financial Statements). The Avionics and Marine Divisions are both located in this facility. Tel is unaware of any environmental problems in connection with its location and, because of the nature of its manufacturing activities, does not anticipate such problems.

Item 3. Pending Legal Proceedings

There are no material pending legal proceedings.

Forward Looking Statements

A number of the statements made by the Company in this report may be regarded as "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements concerning the Company's outlook, pricing trends and forces within the industry, the completion dates of capital projects, expected sales growth, cost reduction strategies and their results, long-term goals of the Company and other statements of expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts.

All predictions as to future results contain a measure of uncertainty and accordingly, actual results could differ materially. Among the factors that could cause a difference are changes in the general economy; changes in demand for the Company's products or in the costs and availability of its raw materials; the actions of competitors; the success of our customers, technological change; changes in employee relations; government regulations; litigation, including its inherent uncertainty; difficulties in plant operations and materials transportation; environmental matters; and other unforeseen circumstances. A number of these factors are discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

General

Management's discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is intended to assist the reader in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial position of the Company together with its subsidiary. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying financial notes, and with the Statement of Critical Accounting Policies noted below. The Company's fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends of March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references in this document to a particular year shall mean the Company's fiscal year.

The Company's aviation business is conducted in the Government, Commercial and General aviation markets (see Note 16 of Notes to Financial Statements for segment financial information). In January 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of ITI, a company selling products to the marine industry. ITI, as of January 2004, was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the

10

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

General (continued)

Company, and ITI's balance sheet and results of operations from January 16, 2004 are consolidated in the Company's financial statements. ITI's contribution to consolidated sales and revenues for February and March of 2004 is not material, but the Company anticipates an increased contribution in fiscal 2005.

Overview

The Company sells its test units to commercial and government purchasers. Commercial sales are generally made to a large number of purchasers, for a relatively small number of units, for delivery inside of a year, and therefore substantial amounts of these sales never appear in year-end backlog. From time to time, the Company wins a large government contract calling for deliveries of a substantial number of units over a several year delivery period. These units are reflected in annual backlog.

In 2000, the Company won a large government contract to deliver 1,300 AN/APM-480 IFF units to the Navy over several years, commencing in 2001. This contract and the AN/APM-480 units are further described in Item 1 above, Description of Business.

As a consequence of this contract, annual backlog increased significantly in 2000 and subsequent years, government sales increased significantly in 2001 and subsequent years and, the government's acceptance of the AN/APM-480 helped the Company become a major supplier of IFF Test Units to the United States and NATO countries.

Deliveries of AN/APM-480 units under this contract declined in 2004, as a result of the facts that (a) a majority of the units under contract have been delivered, (b) the Company agreed with the Navy to reduce shipments in the 4th quarter in contemplation of the Navy returning units for upgrading, and (c) unexpected government delays in new programs. As a consequence, government sales were almost $3 million less in 2004 than in 2003. One-hundred forty-seven units of the original 1,300 contracted for remain to be delivered in 2005.

The Company is well positioned to bid for new government contracts for test units. The government programs, which will award new test equipment contracts, have been delayed by the government. The Company contemplates that the bidding for these new programs will begin in 2005, and the Company intends to submit bids on these programs and is optimistic, although no assurance can be given, that it will be able to win one or more large government contracts.

Fiscal Year 2004

Revenues and income before taxes in 2004 declined from the comparable items in 2003, for the first annual year-to-year decline in 5 years. Between 1999 and 2003, revenues increased from $3.5 million to $11.9 million, income before taxes improved from a loss of $244,000 to a profit of $1.7 million, and shareholders' equity increased from $919,000 to $4.9 million.

In 2004, revenues declined by 10% from the prior year ($10.7 million as compared to $11.9 million in 2003), but still exceeded revenues in 2002 by 9%, and income before taxes declined from $1.7 million last year to $594,000 in 2004. Shareholders' equity increased to $5,287,693 ($2.34 per share) at March 31, 2004.

11

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Fiscal Year 2004 (continued)

Revenues declined in 2004 principally because: (a) the Company's large Navy contract for deliveries of its AN/APM-480 is winding down (at March 31, 2004, 147 of the original 1,300 units under contract remain to be delivered), (b) the Company and the Navy agreed to reduce deliveries of the AN/APM-480 scheduled for the last quarter of 2004, in contemplation of delivered units being returned to the Company for upgrading, and (c) unexpected delays on the government's part in several new procurement programs in which the Company intends to bid and as to which it believes it is well positioned to win some awards.

Commercial avionics sales in 2004 increased substantially over 2003, as a result of new products like the TR-220/210 and of increased marketing efforts. Commercial sales have continuously increased from 1999, increasing from $1.7 million in that year to $3.9 million in the current year.

The Company is continuing its efforts to increase commercial sales.

The Company continues to invest in new product development in order to maintain and expand its market position. Engineering, research and development costs increased in 2004 by 35% over the prior year and amounts to 20% of revenues as compared to 14% in the prior year. Approximately 26% of products sold in 2004 were developed by the Company in the last two years.

Early in 2004, the Company hired senior employees in marketing, engineering, and business development, acquired ITI in January 2004, which expands the Company's sales, markets, and products, and is making efforts to expand the geographical markets for the Company's avionics products.

Income before taxes declined from $1.7 million in 2003 to $594,000 in the current year, as a result of lower revenues and increased costs associated with engineering, research and development, and marketing.

Results of Operations 2004 Compared to 2003

Sales

For the year ended March 31, 2004, net sales decreased $1,157,358 (9.7%) as compared to the prior year. Government sales decreased $2,709,989 (29%) for the current year as compared to 2003. The decrease in sales is primarily attributed to the reduced shipments of the AN/APM 480 to the U.S. Navy and delays in other government procurement programs discussed above. Sales of the AN/APM 480 to the U.S. Navy accounted for 30% of total sales in 2004 as compared to 49% in 2003. Commercial sales increased $1,663,654 (70%) for the year ended March 31, 2004, as compared to the year ended March 31, 2003. The introduction of the TR-220 Multi-Function test set accounted for most of this increase. The commercial market continues to remain uncertain, primarily as a result of the continuing weak financial position of most commercial airlines.

Gross Margin

Gross margin dollars decreased $396,166 (6.5%) for the year ended March 31, 2004, as compared to the prior fiscal year, due to the lower sales volume. The gross margin percentage for the year ended March 31, 2004 improved to 53.5% as compared to 51.6% for 2003, primarily as a result of improving manufacturing efficiency and, to a lesser extent, higher prices as a result of a change in product mix.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $172,639 (6.2%) for the 12 months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, as a result of sales and

13

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations 2004 Compared to 2003 (continued)

Operating Expenses (continued)

marketing expenses associated with newly acquired ITI, increases in new personnel and related expenses, which are offset partially by lower selling commissions, recruitment and relocation expenses, and professional fees.

Engineering, research, and development expenses increased $551,022 (34.4%) for the year ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2003. The increase in expenditures is the result of development of a new generation of products, including an increase in staff. Engineering, research, and development expenditures in 2004 were directed to the continued development of the next generation of IFF test sets, the development of a multi-function commercial bench tester (TB-2100), the development of a foundation technology for future products, and the incorporation of other product enhancements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2004, the Company had positive working capital of $3,767,150 as compared to $4,154,887 at March 31, 2003, principally due to the reduction in accounts receivable. For the year ended March 31, 2004, the Company generated cash from operations in the amount of $811,772 as compared to $875,568 in the prior year. This decrease in cash from operations is primarily attributed to the lower net income for the year and a decrease in accounts payable, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable.

The Company has a line of credit in the amount of $1,750,000 from Fleet Bank, and bears an interest rate of 0.5% above the lender's prevailing base rate, which is payable monthly on any outstanding balance. The Company does not pay to maintain this open line. At March 31, 2004, the Company had no outstanding balance. The line of credit is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company. As of March 31, 2004, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants required by the loan agreement. The line of credit expires at September 30, 2004.

Although accounts receivable, cash, working capital and income from operations were reduced in 2004, for the reasons discussed above, the Company's liquidity and capital resources remain positive. Based upon its current backlog, its existing bank line, and cash balance, the Company believes that it has sufficient working capital to fund its operating plans for at least the next twelve months. However, as the Company pursues additional opportunities, the need for additional capital may arise. The Company has retained Semaphore Capital Advisors L.P. as its investment banker to help pursue acquisitions and alliances and, if needed, to help raise capital. The Company maintains its cash balances primarily in a money market account for use in operations or in the event that it needs these funds for an acquisition.

There was no significant impact on the Company's operations, as a result of inflation for the ended March 31, 2004.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing our financial statements and accounting for the underlying transactions and balances, we apply our accounting policies as disclosed in Note 2 of our Notes to Financial Statements. The Company's accounting policies that require a higher degree of judgment and complexity used in the preparation of financial statements include:

Revenue recognition - revenues are recognized at the time of shipment to, or acceptance by customer provided title and risk of loss is transferred to the customer. Provisions, when appropriate, are made where the right to return exists. Revenues under service contracts are recognized when the services are performed.

Property and equipment - property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets over periods ranging from three to eight years. Useful lives are estimated at the time the asset is acquired and are based upon historical experience with similar assets as well as taking into account anticipated technological or other changes. Leasehold item improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or the useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter.

Inventory reserves - inventory reserves or write-downs are estimated for excess, slow-moving and obsolete inventory as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value.

These estimates are based on current assessments about future demands, market conditions and related management initiatives. If market conditions and actual demands are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Warranty reserves - warranty reserves are based upon historical rates and specific items that are identifiable and can be estimated at time of sale. While warranty costs have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, future warranty costs could be in excess of our warranty reserves. A significant increase in these costs could adversely affect operating results for the period and the periods these additional costs materialize. Warranty reserves are adjusted from time to time when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates.

Accounts receivable - the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credits and payments from its customers and maintains provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to receive positive results.

15

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Critical Accounting Policies (continued)

Income taxes - deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefit which is not more likely than not to be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

At March 31, 2004, the Company's contractual obligations and commitments to make future payments are as follows:

                                                                            Payment Due by Period

Purchase Commitments (1)                         450,651           450,651                --                --               --

Notes To Financial Statements

1. Business, Organization, and Liquidity

Business and Organization:

Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp ("Tel" or the "Company") has been in business since 1947. The Company is a leading designer and manufacturer of avionics test and measurement instruments for the global, commercial air transport, general aviation, and government/military aerospace and defense markets. Tel-Instrument provides instruments to test, measure, calibrate, and repair a wide range of airborne navigation and communication equipment. The Company sells its equipment to both domestic and international markets.

In January, 2004, the Company acquired privately held Innerspace Technology, Inc. (ITI). ITI has been in the marine instrumentation systems business for over 30 years designing, manufacturing and distributing a variety of shipboard and underwater instruments to support hydrographers, oceanographers, researchers, engineers, geophysicists, and surveyors worldwide.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company acquired Innerspace Technology, Inc. on January 16, 2004. As such, financial statements have been consolidated as of this date.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenues are recognized at the time of shipment to, or acceptance by customer provided title and risk of loss is transferred to the customer. Provisions, when appropriate, are made where the right to return exists. The Company does not currently have a provision since it has not experienced a material amount of returns in the period presented. Revenues under service contracts are recognized when the services are performed.

Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are not material.

Payments received prior to the delivery of units or services performed are recorded as deferred revenues on the accompanying balance sheets.

In connection with an existing contract with the U.S. Navy for the delivery of test equipment, the Company agreed to upgrade the equipment being delivered under the contract. The Company accrued the estimated cost of $63,626 and $337,793 in 2004 and 2003, respectively, of upgrade costs with respect to pre-upgrade units delivered during those years. The Company determined that the upgrade costs, estimated to be approximately $450 per unit, were inconsequential and perfunctory. The Company is charging costs of performing the upgrade work to the accrued upgrade liability as the units are shipped.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates market value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Financial Instruments:

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these investments. The Company does not determine an estimated fair value for its related party debt, since such debt does not have a readily determinable market.

Concentrations of Credit Risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company's avionics customer base is primarily comprised of airlines, distributors, and the U.S. Government. The Company's marine systems customer base consists primarily of engineering and surveying companies, distributors and federal and state agencies. As of March 31, 2004, the Company believes it has no significant risk related to its concentration within its accounts receivable. (See Note 14 to Financial Statements).

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. In accordance with industry practice, service parts inventory is included in current assets, although service parts are carried for established requirements during the serviceable lives of the products and, therefore, not all parts are expected to be sold within one year.

Equipment and Leasehold Improvements:

Office and manufacturing equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 8 years.

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the term of the lease or the useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter.

Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred.

When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in the Statements of Operations.

Engineering, Research and Development Costs:

Engineering, research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets consist primarily of purchased intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of ITI. Purchased intangible assets primarily include existing and core technology, non-compete agreements, and customer list. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over 5 years.

Income Per Common Share:

The Company's basic income per share is based on net income for the relevant period, divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is based on net income for the relevant period, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method. Incremental shares of 189,000 and 13,200 related to stock options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, since they were antidilutive. No shares were excluded for the year ended March 31, 2004.

Accounting for Income Taxes:

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefit which is not more likely than not to be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.

Stock Option Plans:

The Company accounts for its stock option plans in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. The Company has adopted the disclosure only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 and 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123 and 148"). Under SFAS 123 and 148 the Company provides pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock option grants made since 1996 as if the fair-value-based method as defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company does not plan to adopt the fair value based method prescribed by SFAS No. 123.

Stock Option Plan (continued):

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted for the years 2004, 2003, and 2002 was $1.10, $1.01, and $1.67, respectively, on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: expected dividend yield of 0.0%, risk-free interest rate of 3.5% in 2004 and 5% in 2003 and 2002, volatility factor of 50% in 2004 and 2003 and 135% in 2002, and an expected life of 5 years. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair market value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the pro forma amounts are indicated below:

                                     2004          2003           2002

Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of:

The company follows SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." The standard provides accounting and reporting requirements for the impairment of all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and it also extends the reporting requirements for discontinued operations of APB 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions," to all components of an entity. The primary purpose of SFAS No. 144 is to establish guidelines to create a consistent accounting model for the impairment of long-lived assets to be disposed of and to clarify some implementation issues of SFAS No. 121. No impairment losses have been recorded through March 31, 2004.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates include income taxes, warranty claims, inventory and accounts receivable valuations.

Accounts Receivable:

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current credit worthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for and payments from its customers and maintains provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectation and the provision established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to receive positive results.

Warranty Reserve:

Warranty reserves are based upon historical rates and specific items that are identifiable and can be estimated at time of sale. While warranty costs have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, future warranty costs could be in excess of our warranty reserves. A significant increase in these costs could adversely affect our operating results for the period and the periods these additional costs materialize. Warranty reserves are adjusted from time to time when actual warranty claim experience differs from estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties:

The Company's operations are subject to a number of risks, including but not limited to changes in the general economy, demand for the Company's products, the success of its customers, research and development results, reliance on the government markets and the renewal of its line of credit. The Company has a major contract with the U.S. Navy, which like all government contracts, is subject to termination.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB interpretation No. 46. Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 addresses the consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities, as defined in the Interpretation. FIN 46 expands existing accounting guidance regarding when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities, and activities of another entity. Many variable interest entities have commonly been referred to as special-purpose entities or off-balance sheet structures. In December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46R ("FIN 46R"), a revision to FIN 46. FIN 46R clarifies some of the provisions of FIN 46 and exempts certain entities from its requirements. FIN 46R is effective at the end of the first interim period ending after March 15, 2004. This pronouncement does not currently impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In July 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity ("SFAS 150"). SFAS 150 requires the shares that are mandatorily redeemable for cash or other assets at a specified or determinable date or upon an event certain to occur to be classified as liabilities, not as part of shareholders' equity. This pronouncement does not currently impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Emerging Issues Task Force ("ETIF") Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables," is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The ETIF addresses the accounting for revenue generating arrangements involving multiple deliverables. This ETIF does not currently impact the Company since there are no new sales agreements with multiple deliverables.

11. Income Taxes (Continued)

The foregoing amounts are management's estimates and the actual results could differ from those estimates. Future profitability in this competitive industry depends on continually obtaining and fulfilling new profitable sales agreements and modifying products. The inability to obtain new profitable contracts or the failure of the Company's engineering development efforts could reduce estimates of future profitability, which could affect the Company's ability to realize the deferred tax assets.

A reconciliation of the income tax expense at the statutory Federal tax rate of 34% to the income tax expense recognized in the financial statements is as follows:

12. Related Party Transactions

On March 31, 1997, the Company's Chairman/President renegotiated the terms of the non-current note payable-related party. This note, along with $250,000 of other accrued expenses due to the Company's Chairman/President, were converted into seven $50,000 convertible subordinated notes (the "Notes") totaling $350,000. The Notes are due in consecutive years beginning March 31, 1999 with the last note due March 31, 2005.

In November 2002 the Company paid and redeemed $100,000 of the previously matured and extended notes. As of March 31, 2004 and 2003 the total principal amount of outstanding notes amounted to $250,000 (see below). The Notes bore interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable semi-annually on the last day of September and March of each year. Effective October 1, 2003, the interest rate was changed to 4.5%. The Company is required to prepay the outstanding balance of the Notes and any accrued interest thereon, if the Company sells all or substantially all of its assets. The Notes can be converted into newly issued common shares of the Company at the conversion price of $2.50 per share. The conversion prices shall be adjusted for any stock dividends, stock issuances or capital reorganizations. The Notes may be redeemed by the Company prior to maturity upon giving written notice of not less than 30 days or more than 60 days at a redemption price equal to 120% of the principal if redeemed two years or more prior to the maturity date or 110% of the principal if redeemed more than one year, but less than two years prior to the maturity date.

In May 2004, the Company and its Chairman/President renegotiated the terms of the notes payable-related party. The Notes now become due in consecutive years beginning March 31, 2005.

16. Segment Information

Information is presented for the Company's three reportable segments, avionics government, avionics commercial, and marine systems. Marine systems information includes information beginning January 16, 2004, the date of acquisition. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on gross margin. There are no inter-segment revenues.

The Company is organized primarily on the basis of its avionics and marine instrument products. The avionics government segment consists primarily of the design, manufacture, and sale of test equipment to the U.S. and foreign governments and militaries either directly or through distributors. The avionics commercial segment consists of design, manufacture, and sale of test equipment to domestic and foreign airlines, to commercial distributors, and to general aviation repair and maintenance shops. . The Company develops and designs test equipment for the avionics industry and as such, the Company's products and designs cross segments. The marine instrumentation systems segment consists of sales to hydrographic, oceanographic, researchers, engineers, geophysicists and surveyors. Segment assets include accounts receivable and work-in-process inventory. Asset information, other than accounts receivable and work-in-process inventory, is not reported, since the Company does not produce such information internally. All long-lived assets are located in the U.S.

The Company's general and administrative costs and marketing strategies are not segment specific. As a result, selling, general, and administrative expenses are not managed on a segment basis. Net interest includes expenses on debt and income earned on cash balances, both maintained at the corporate level.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountant on Accounting and

Financial Disclosure

On December 11, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company, upon recommendation of its Audit Committee, appointed BDO Seidman, LLP as its new independent auditors. In connection with its 2002 audit, there were no disagreements, with its previous auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP.

The Company has had no disagreements with its current auditors.

Item 9a. Controls and Procedures

The Company adopted disclosure controls and procedures, as called for by the recently adopted legislation and rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under Rules promulgated by the SEC, disclosure controls and procedures are defined as "those controls or other procedures of the issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the commission's rules and forms." Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer evaluated the Company's Disclosure Controls and Procedures at March 31, 2004 and have concluded that they are effective based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation as of March 31, 2004 by the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

(2) Members of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee; Mr. O'Hara withdrew as a formal member of these committees at the end of fiscal year 2004.

Audit Committee

The Board of Directors established a separately designated standing Audit Committee in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Audit Committee was comprised of Messrs. Walker (chairman), Leon, and O'Hara until March 31, 2004, and thereafter of Messrs. Walker and Leon. Messrs. Walker, Leon, and O'Hara are independent, as that term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Mr. Walker is a financial expert as defined in that act. As noted above, Mr. Walker served as director and Executive Vice President of Robotic Vision Systems, Inc. and as its principal financial officer for over 15 years.

In February 2004, the Company listed its securities for trading on the Amex. Under Amex rules, Mr. O'Hara is not independent, and therefore, as of 3/31/04, the Audit Committee has consisted of Mr. Walker and Mr. Leon.

Beneficial Ownerships Reporting Compliance

Item 11. Executive Compensation (Continued)

Compensation Committee Interlock and Insider Participation

During the last fiscal year, Messrs. Leon, O'Hara, and Walker served as members of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. None of the members was or has been an officer or employee of the Company. Mr. O'Hara is the son-in-law of Mr. Fletcher and stepped down as a formal member of the Committee on March 31, 2004.

Compensation Committee Report

Overview

The Compensation Committee approves or endorses all compensation paid or awarded to senior executives. The Committee is made up only of non-employee directors who do not participate in any of the compensation plans they administer, except that stock options granted to directors (see director compensation above) are granted under the Employee Stock Option Plan (see Directors Compensation).

The Company's success depends on developing, motivating, and retaining executives who have the skills and expertise to lead the organization. The executive compensation program is designed to help achieve these objectives. It is comprised of the following three main components:

o Competitive base salaries

o Short-term rewards

o Long-term incentives

Competitive Base Salaries

Each year we evaluate the Company's salary structure based on salaries paid by competitive companies; the Company's business performance, and general financial and economic factors. Specific weights are not given to these factors. Within the salary structure so determined, we determine individual executive salaries based on individual performance, level of responsibility, contribution to Company results, and experience. Based on this analysis, the Committee recommends the CEO's salary to the Board of Directors and endorses salaries for other senior executives.

Short-Term Rewards

The company has a key man incentive compensation program. Each year the Committee determines upon a percentage of operating profits to be distributed among senior employees. The percentage determined is based on the general performance of the company and the amount of operating profits available for shareholders and for reinvestment in the business.

The percentage of operating profits so determined is then distributed to senior employees and to a category entitled "other", based on (a) the amount of the employee's base salary, (b) his contribution to the Company, (c) the results of that contribution, (d) an estimated amount of "special effort" on behalf of the Company, (e) his technical expertise, leadership, and management skills, and (f) the level of the overall compensation paid employees performing similar work in competitive companies.

51

Item 11. Executive Compensation (continued)

Compensation Committee Interlock and Insider Participation (continued

A small portion of the overall incentive compensation is paid to "other" employees upon the recommendation of the CEO, based on the foregoing criteria and special circumstances for the fiscal year.

Long-Term Rewards

The Company grants long-term incentive awards with a view toward long-term corporate performance and to develop and retain qualified employees.

The Company uses stock options as long-term incentive awards, granted pursuant to the Company's Incentive Stock Option Plans that also provide the employee with tax benefits. The options generally have an exercise price equal to the market price at the time of grant, have a number of limitations and generally have a five-year duration, with 20% of the awarded options vesting at the end of each of the first three years and 40% at the end of the fourth year. See Note 15 of Notes to Financial Statements for more information on the Stock Option Plans.

The number of options granted to an employee is based on individual performance and level of responsibility. For this purpose, the Committee measures performance the same way as described above for short-term awards. The Committee and the Board also consider the total outstanding shares and options, in determining the maximum number of options to grant in any year. The company does not have required levels for equity holdings of senior management.

CEO Compensation

Within the framework described above, the Committee determines the CEO's compensation by considering his contributions to the Company's business, the difficulty and progress of the business, the amount of revenues and profit earned, the return to shareholders, and his experience. The Committee does not think narrow quantitative measures or formulas are sufficient for determining the CEO's compensation. The Committee does not give specific weights to the factors considered, but the primary factors are the CEO's contributions and business results.

In determining the CEO's total compensation, the Committee considered Mr. Fletcher's level of responsibility, his leadership, and his overall contribution as CEO. The Committee also considers the Company's financial resources in determining the CEO's overall compensation.

Summary

The Compensation Committee is responsible for seeing that the Company's compensation program serves the best interests of its shareholders. The Committee's determination also considers compensation paid other employees in comparable corporations.

In the opinion of the Committee, the Company continues to have an appropriate and competitive compensation program, which has served the Company and shareholders well. The combination of

base salary, short-term bonuses, and emphasis on long term incentives provides a balanced and stable foundation for effective executive leadership.

(b) If any proceeding referred to in Section 10.8(a) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will, unless the claim involves taxes, be entitled to participate in such proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the indemnifying party is also a party to such proceeding and the indemnified party determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate, or (ii) the indemnifying party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the indemnified party of its financial capacity to defend such proceeding and provide indemnification with respect to such proceeding), assume the defense of such proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 10 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation.

(i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of legal requirements or any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within ten days after the indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) Sellers hereby consent to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a proceeding is brought against any indemnified person by a third party, for purposes of any claim that an indemnified person may have under this agreement with

33

respect to such proceeding or the matters alleged therein, and agree that process may be served on Sellers with respect to such a claim anywhere in the world.

Exhibit 10.9

May 25, 2004

Mr. Harold K. Fletcher
Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp.
728 Garden Street
Carlstadt, NJ 07072

Dear Hal:

We want to confirm the terms and provisions pursuant to which Semaphore Capital Advisors, LLP ("Semaphore") will act as investment banker for Tel Instrument Electronics Corp. (the "Company"). This agreement supercedes all prior written and oral agreements between us (and with our predecessor in interest), which prior agreements are hereby declared null and void.

Section I: Services to be Rendered

A) Our services as investment banker will include (but not be limited to) the following, as requested by the Company:

(i) Consulting with the Company and assisting in the development of a long-term strategic plan for realizing the value of the Company's assets, initiating discussions and negotiations with investor candidates, including strategic investor candidates (defined as corporations or other business entities in similar or related businesses or industries, hereinafter referred to as "Strategic Investors") and merger or acquisition candidates ("Merger Candidates"), as well as potential financial investment candidates (Strategic Investors, Merger Candidates and financial investment candidates are called herein collectively "Candidates"), and for achieving other agreed upon financial objectives;

(ii) Advising the Company with respect to possible merger opportunities or acquisition candidates, including financial analysis, the receptivity of the financial markets and the effects on the Company of pursuing various opportunities;

(iii) Attempting to arrange a sale of existing shares of the Company's stock held by certain shareholders to be identified by the Company, if requested by the Company, as part of an investment or separately, in one or more series of block sales or Transactions at market price or at another price that may be negotiated between the shareholders and one or more buyers introduced by us;


(iv) Assisting the Company in raising capital by (a) arranging a private placement of the Company's securities in the amount and on the terms agreed in writing and/or (b) advising on and assisting in obtaining an underwriter for a public offering of the Company's securities in such amount and on such terms as are agreed in writing;

(v) Providing any other investment banking, financial, advisory or management-consulting services as may be agreed in writing between us and the Company, including (but not limited to) reviewing other business opportunities, rendering an opinion as to the potential impact of such business opportunities on the Company's valuation and assisting management in identifying candidates for the Board of Directors if requested by the Company.

B) Information Memorandum. We will assist in the preparation of a private placement, executive summary, investment or information memorandum ("Information Memorandum"), which Information Memorandum may be in one or more formats and will include an executive summary and a business plan with detailed historical and projected financial statements which will describe the Company, its current and proposed future businesses, the Company's management and the investment opportunity. The Information Memorandum will also incorporate any other relevant information that may be customary and necessary or may be deemed by you and us to be desirable. The Company confirms that, in assisting in the preparation of the Information Memorandum, we will be relying upon information, both written and oral, and documents and data furnished by the Company to us or which have been approved by the Company, as well as information from generally recognized public sources (the "Information").

C) Information and Documents. The Company will furnish to us such information, documents and other materials, respond to requests for information and take such other action as (i) shall be reasonably requested by us so as to permit and facilitate the carrying out of our activities under this Agreement and (ii) shall be reasonably requested by any Candidates (if approved by the Company) in connection with their analysis or due diligence review of a Transaction. (A "Transaction" is defined herein as any investment, corporate acquisition, merger, business combination or other corporate event described in
Section I, A, (I) - (IV).) If any event shall occur or condition develop as a result of which it is necessary or advisable, in our opinion, to amend or supplement any such previously furnished documents or materials in order that they will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading, then the Company shall prepare or cause to be prepared such updated, additional or supplemental documentation, which shall be acceptable to us for delivery to Candidates for the purpose of correcting such statement or omission. In the event that the Company determines that no such amendment or supplement is required, we may terminate the Agreement. The Company may unilaterally decide to amend, update, revise or add supplemental data to the Information at any time it chooses and we may distribute such updated information and documents to the Candidates. We agree that we will only distribute information or documents pursuant to this Agreement, which we in good faith believe to be in compliance with Federal and state securities and other laws.

2

We will not provide an Information Memorandum or other confidential information about the Company to any Candidate that is in a business similar to or competing with the Company unless such Candidate executes a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement acceptable to the Company. We will use our best effort to obtain an executed non-disclosure agreement before providing an Information Memorandum or other confidential information to any other Candidate, not in a similar or competing business. In any event, we will not provide an Information Memorandum or Confidential Information to any Candidate unless first approved by the Company.

The Company shall be under no obligation to negotiate with any Candidate and the Company has the sole discretion whether or not to enter into a definitive agreement for a Transaction with a Candidate.

Section II: Fees, Expenses and Term

A) Term. We will be the exclusive investment bankers to the Company commencing on the date of execution of this Agreement by both parties, provided however, that either party may withdraw from this Agreement at any time upon thirty days written notice to the other party given in accordance with Section IV, F, hereof.

B) Post Termination. Within three business days after the effective date of any termination by the Company (the "Termination Date"), we will deliver to the Company a list of all Candidates (the "Covered Parties") with which we can confirm that (a) the Company, at our instigation or by our introduction, has had discussions or one or more meetings concerning a Transaction or has specifically requested Semaphore to have such a discussion during the term of this Agreement and prior to receipt of the notice of termination or (b) such Covered Parties have, prior to such notice of termination, expressed an interest in considering or pursuing a Transaction by requesting a copy of the Information Memorandum after qualifying discussions with us and have received such Information Memorandum. Covered Parties shall not include Candidates contacted by us that have indicated they are not interested in the Company either during a preliminary qualifying conversation or after reading an executive summary or other preliminary business description.

If the Company completes a Transaction with a Covered Party, within eighteen months of the termination of this Agreement, Semaphore shall be entitled to the fees set forth under subsections C, (iii) and (iv) or subsection (D) under this Section II.

On and after the Termination Date, we shall also, upon request, either destroy or return to the Company any and all Information, Information Memoranda, documents and confidential information of the Company (including extracts thereof), which are in our possession or control; except that we may keep copies of documents if required by NASD or SEC rules. The provisions concerning confidentiality, indemnification, compensation and the Company's obligation to pay fees and reimburse expenses contained herein, and ours and the Company's obligations contained in the Indemnification provisions, will survive any such termination, except to the extent expressly stated otherwise herein. We agree not to use any confidential

3

information about the Company provided to us by the Company for any purpose other than in connection with our services hereunder or as directed by the Company.

C) Compensation. The Company agrees to pay us the following compensation for our services hereunder (provided that no such fee shall apply to any Transaction with a current officer, director, shareholder or employee of the Company, or any family member or affiliate of any such person, all contrary provisions notwithstanding):

(i) A non-refundable retainer in the amount of $30,000.00, payable in three installments, the initial $10,000.00 of which shall be paid upon signing this agreement and the remaining two installments of $10,000.00 each shall be paid in thirty-calendar-day increments beginning thirty days after the initial payment and the third shall be paid sixty calendar days after the initial payment. The retainer is intended to compensate us for investment banking services, particularly as described in subparagraphs (i), and (ii) in
Section I. The Company considers time of the essence in connection with these services and if, in the Company's reasonable judgment, we have not provided the services contemplated hereunder in a diligent manner, the Company may exercise its termination rights any time after sixty days from the date thereof, and after such termination, no further amounts specified in this subparagraph (i) shall be due and payable. In the event that we exercise our termination rights, no further amounts under this subparagraph (i) shall become due and payable.

(ii) Monthly Payments. Commencing on the 90th day after execution hereof, the Company will pay Semaphore $5,000 per month, in advance, for the investment banking services set forth in this Agreement, for as many months as both the Company and Semaphore agree. In the event that either party wishes to terminate the arrangement set forth in this Paragraph C (ii), such Party shall give the other Party 15 days written notice thereof in accordance with Section IV, F.

(iii) Success Fee. A Success Fee which shall be a percentage
(defined below) of the Aggregate Consideration (except as further defined below) received by the Company from a Transaction closed with a Candidate (or upon closing a Transaction with a Covered Party, as defined in Section II, B, within twelve months after the Termination Date), which Success Fee will be paid when the Company receives the proceeds from the Transaction. The Success Fee is calculated as a percentage of the proceeds from the Aggregate Consideration (except as further defined in subsection E below) of any Transaction (or, in the event of a second transaction on an accumulated basis) according to the following formula:

8% on the first $5 million of transaction; 5% on the next $2.5 million; 2% on the next $2.5 million; 1% on the excess over $10 million.

The $30,000 of monthly payments made under paragraph C (i) above shall be credited against the Success Fee payable under this subparagraph (iii) but shall not affect the warrants issuable under subparagraph (iv) below.

4

In no event will the Success Fee payable be less than $100,000.

The Success Fee payable to Semaphore for raising capital for the Company, in lieu of the above percentages, shall be 3% of the amount of mezzanine capital, 1% of bank debt and the percentages set forth above, for raising equity.

(iv) Warrants. In addition to the Success Fee set forth above, the Company will issue to Semaphore, 5 year warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company.

The warrants shall contain usual and customary exercise rights, terms and conditions (to be covered in a separate warrant agreement) and shall be exercisable (a) for that number of shares of common stock that shall be equal to 12.5% of the dollar amount of the Success Fee except that warrants issuable in connection with raising mezzanine financing shall be exercisable for Shares equal to 5% of the dollars so raised, and there shall be no warrants issuable in connection with raising bank debt; and (b) at a price per share equal to the value per share used in the Transaction, or if none, or if the Transaction effects a change of control, then at the closing price on the American Stock Exchange on the 20th business day prior to public disclosure of the letter of intent or the Transaction, whichever is sooner.

For example, Semaphore's compensation based on a $5 million transaction shall be equal to success fee of $400,000 (8% x $5MM) less a $30,000 credit for the retainer paid and 5 year warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock (12.5% of the dollar amount of the Success Fee) at an exercise price per share equal to the value of the shares in the Transaction, or if none, or if the Transaction effects a change of control then at the Closing price on the Amex, 20 business days before public disclosure of the letter or intent or Transaction, whichever is sooner.

(v) The Company will also reimburse Semaphore for all documented, reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred directly in connection with the completion of the first Transaction, in an amount not to exceed $10,000.

(vi) Reset Provisions. In the event of a transaction in excess of $20 million in Aggregate Consideration, or in the event of a full auction sale of the Company, the Compensation payable to Semaphore shall be (a) a Cash Success Fee equal to 2% of the aggregate consideration of such Transaction, except that in the case of a full auction sale of the Company, the Cash Success Fee shall not be less than $600,000 and (b) warrants, calculated pursuant to the same formula used in subparagraph IV above.

Other transactions, if any, and the formula used in subparagraphs
(ii) and (iv) of this Subsection C, shall not be otherwise taken into account in calculating the Reset Provision.

(D) Subsequent Transactions. If a Transaction is consummated with a Candidate, then at any time thereafter prior to the anniversary of the date of termination of this Agreement, if the Company closes any additional Transaction or business combination with such Candidate, we will be entitled to receive a fee in cash payable upon the receipt of the proceeds from any

5

such Transaction or business combination, based on the Aggregate Consideration of the Transaction or business combination using the following formula:

i. Two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the first five million dollars of Aggregate Consideration or part thereof, plus

ii. One percent (1%) of any remaining Aggregate Consideration.

(E) Aggregate Consideration. For purposes of this Agreement, "Aggregate Consideration" shall mean the total value of all cash, securities, other property and any other consideration, including, without limitation (as, if and when received), any contingent, earned or other assets or consideration, aid or payable, directly or indirectly, in connection with the Transaction, net of any indebtedness owed upon the same, it being the intention of this provision that the Aggregate Consideration shall mean the net equity value of any cash, tangible assets or measurable intangible assets acquired by, invested in, loaned to or transferred to the Company. The fair market value of any securities (whether debt or equity) or other similar property shall be determined by the closing or last sale prices of these securities (in the principal market on which the are traded) on the date of the consummation of the Transaction or the valuation of other assets placed upon them by the parties to the Transaction. If any non-cash consideration is a class of newly-issued, publicly-traded securities, then the fair market value thereof shall be the average of the closing prices for the twenty trading days subsequent to the fifth trading day after the consummation of the Transaction. If no public market exists for any securities issued in the Transaction or a class of securities is not intended to be publicly traded or convertible into publicly-traded securities, then the fair market value thereof shall be determined by the valuation placed upon these securities by the parties to the Transaction.

In the event that the Company completes more than one Transaction during the term hereof, the Aggregate Consideration of all Transactions shall be combined for the purposes of applying the Success Fee schedule.

(F) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, particularly including the exclusivity provisions, the parties agree that:

(i) The current agreement among the Company, Semaphore and Investment Partners Group, shall continue according to its terms and the Company may extend such agreement on the same terms; and

(ii) The Company may raise mezzanine and bank debt on its own, without using Semaphore for this purpose, and no fee will accrue to Semaphore in respect of any such mezzanine or bank debt raised by the Company; and

(iii) Directors, officers or shareholders may bring potential merger, acquisition or other business combination candidates to the attention of the Board and the Board may, if it chooses, pay such directors, officers or shareholders a finders fee.

6

It is the intent of this agreement that the Company will compensate Semaphore only for investment banking services outlined in Section 1, which are requested by the Company and provided by Semaphore.

Section III: Indemnification

In consideration of our services on behalf of the Company in connection with any offering of securities, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold us harmless and each of our affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (within the meaning of ss.15 of the Securities Act of 1933) to the extent and as provided for in the indemnification provisions attached hereto as Addendum A and incorporated herein in their entirety. We agree to indemnify the Company, its affiliates, officers, agents and controlling persons, for our own willful misconduct or gross negligence in performing the services herein.

Section IV: Other

A) Exclusivity. During the period that we are engaged by the Company, the Company shall not directly or indirectly initiate any discussions or other contacts or solicit any inquiries or indications of interest concerning a Transaction with any person without identifying such person to us within a reasonable period of time. The Company shall promptly furnish us with the names of all parties with whom the Company, its directors, officers and/or its controlling shareholders have conducted any discussions, received inquiries from or had any other related contacts within three months prior to the date hereof, concerning any potential investment in the Company or in any related Transaction with the Company and shall promptly inform us of the identity of any third party that subsequently makes any such inquiry and whose interest in a possible investment in the Company or in any other form of Transaction subsequently becomes known to the Company during the term of this Agreement.

B) Confidentiality. Each party to this Agreement agrees to keep in strict confidence the proprietary and non-public information of the other party during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit disclosures (i) permitted by the parties in performing its obligations hereunder; (ii) required by law or legal process (provided notice is given prior to such disclosure); or (iii) of matters which become public other than by the actions of the disclosing party hereunder.

C) No Brokers. The Company represents that, to the best of its knowledge, there are no brokers, representatives or other persons that have an interest in compensation due from this engagement or any Transaction contemplated hereunder that have not been identified to us.

D) Applicable Law.

Service of process hereunder may be effected any where by such court's procedures or pursuant to the notice provisions set forth in Paragraph F under this Section (IV).

7

E) Waivers, Etc.

2003 Stock Option Plan

of

Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp.

Adapted by the Board of Directors

on May __, 2003.

1. Purpose.

The purposes of this Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") are to: (1) closely associate the interest of the employees of Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp. (the "Company") and others with the shareholders by reinforcing the relationship between participant's rewards and shareholder gains; (2) provide employees with an equity ownership in the Company commensurate with Company performance, as reflected in increased shareholder value; (3) maintain competitive compensation levels; and (4) provide an incentive to employees for continuous employment with the Company.

2. Stock Subject Plan

The stock to be issued upon exercise of options granted under the Plan shall consist of authorized but unissued, or reacquired shares of the Common Stock, $.l0 per share par value, of the Company. The maximum number of shares for which options may be granted under the Plan is 250,000 shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 13.

If any options granted under the Plan expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the


unpurchased shares shall become available for further options under the Plan.

3. Administration and Nature of Options.

(a) Board of Directors; Committee: The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors or, in the discretion of the Board, by a Committee (the "Committee"). Hereinafter, and in the option agreements, the term "Committee" shall mean the Board of Directors, if no other committee is appointed. The Committee, if any, shall be appointed by the Board of Directors and shall consist of not less then three directors. The Board of Directors shall fill all vacancies in the Committee and may remove any member of the Committee at any time, with or without cause. The Committee shall select its own Chairman and shall hold its meetings at such times and places as it may determine. The acts of a majority of the Committee at any meeting, or acts approved in writing by all members of the Committee, shall be the acts of the Committee.

(b) Grant of Options: The Board of Directors, or the Committee, may grant under the plan, (i) non-statutory options to employees, officers, consultants or non-employee directors, or (ii) Incentive Stock Options ("ISOs") to employees, which are intended to quality as ISOs under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors or the Committee shall have full authority (A) to

2

determine, in its discretion, the individuals to whom, and the times at which, options shall be granted, whether to grant non-statutory options or ISOs, the number of shares subject to each option, and the provisions of the respective option agreements (which need not be identical), including provisions concerning the time or times, when and the extent to which, the options may be exercised, the conditions of exercise (including non-competition with the Company after termination of employment) and the effect of approved leaves of absence on continuity of service; (B) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (C) to interpret the Plan and the respective option agreements; and (D) to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for administering the Plan. The Committee, if appointed, shall report its actions to the Board of Directors and all determinations and interpretations by the Committee, if approved by the Board of Directors, shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties.

4. Effective Date.

The Plan is effective as of June 1, 2003, but if not approved by the shareholders on or before May 1, 2004, no further ISOs shall be granted. Prior to adoption by the shareholders, any ISO granted shall be expressly made contingent on such shareholder approval, and if not approved by the shareholders by May 1, 2004, all ISOs theretofore granted shall become null, and void ab initio.

3

5. Eligibility of Optionees.

ISOs may be granted under the Plan only to salaried officers and employees who have the capability of making a substantial contribution to the success of the Company. Non-Statutory Options may be granted under the plan to employees, officers, consultants and non-employee Directors. In selecting individuals to receive options and in determining the form and amount of awards, the Committee shall consider any factors deemed relevant, including the individual's functions, responsibilities, value of services to the Company, past and potential contributions to the Company's profitability and sound growth and compensation levels in the industry for comparable jobs.

6. Stock Option Agreements.

The grant of an option shall be evidenced by a written Stock Option Agreement, executed by the Company and the optionee stating the number of shares subject to the option and substantially in the form of Exhibit A annexed.

7. Option Price.

The exercise price per share under each option granted shall be determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee. In no event, however, shall the exercise price per share under each option be less than l00% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant; provided however, that any

4

option granted hereunder to an employee owning 10% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company, shall have an exercise price par share of 110% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the Date of Grant.

8. Exercise of Options.

(a) Each option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable at such time, or in installments at such times, as may be provided in the option agreement. To the extent that any installment of an option has become exercisable it may be exercised thereafter, until termination, in whole at any time or from time to time in part.

(b) Each option granted under the Plan shall terminate no later than five years after the date on which it was granted, but the Board of Directors or the Committee in its discretion may prescribe a shorter period for any individual option or options.

(c) An option shall be exercised by written notice of such exercise, in the form prescribed by the Board of Directors or the Committee, to the Secretary or Treasurer of the Company, at its principal office. The notice shall specify the number of shares for which the option is being exercised (which number, if less than all of the shares then subject to exercise, shall be 50 or a multiple thereof) and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price of such shares. No shares shall be delivered upon exercise of any option until all laws, rules and regulations which the Board of Directors or the Committee may deem applicable

5

have been complied with. If a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 is not then in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon such exercise, it shall be a condition precedent that the person exercising the option give to the Company a written representation and undertaking satisfactory in form and substance to the Board of Directors or the Committee, and counsel, that he is acquiring the shares for his own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof. The Company may also place a legend on the certificates issued, restricting transfer unless in compliance with federal or state securities laws, and a stop transfer on the stock records.

(d) The person exercising an option shall not be considered a record holder of the stock so purchased for any purpose until the date on which he is actually recorded as the holder of such stock upon the stock records of the Company.

(e) The Company shall pay all original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of Shares of Common Stock of the Company pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith.

(f) The aggregate fair market value (determined as of the date the option is granted) of the stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by any employee during any calendar year under all plans of the Company (and parent and subsidiary corporations) shall not exceed $100,000.

6

9. Death of Optionee.

(a) Upon the death of the optionee, any ISO exercisable on the date of death may be exercised by the optionee's estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise such ISO by bequest or inheritance or by reason of the death of the optionee, provided that such exercise occurs within the remaining option term of the ISO.

(b) The provisions of this Section shall apply notwithstanding the fact that the optionee's employment may have terminated prior to death, but only to the extent of any ISOs exercisable on the date of such termination.

10. Retirement, Disability or Involuntary Termination.

Upon the termination of the optionee's employment, the optionee may exercise any ISO to the extent such ISO was exercisable at the date of such termination of employment, within (a) 12 months after the date of termination of employment due to permanent disability as defined by the Committee or (b) ninety days after the date of termination of employment due to retirement, or due to involuntary termination for reasons other than negligence, insubordination, breach of contract or moral turpitude.

7

11. Termination for Other Reasons.

Except as provided in Sections 9 and 10 or except as otherwise determined by the Committee, all Options shall terminate upon the termination date of the optionee's employment.

12. Other Option Conditions

(a) Nothing in the Plan or in any option granted pursuant thereto shall confer on any individual any right to continue in the employ of the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate his employment at any time.

(b) No holder of any option under the Plan shall, by virtue of holding such option, be entitled to any rights of a stock-holder in the Company.

13. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization.

The option agreements shall Contain such provisions as the Board of Directors or the Committee shall determine to be appropriate for the adjustment of the kind and number of shares subject to each outstanding option, or the exercise prices, or both, in the event of any changes in the outstanding Common Stock of the Company by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, sales or exchanges of assets, combinations or exchange of shares, offering of subscription rights or any other type of change.

8

14. Term of Plan.

The Board of Directors may terminate this Plan at any time. Termination of the Plan will not affect rights and obligations theretofore granted and then in effect. No options may be granted later than 10 years from the date listed on page 1 hereof as the date of the Plan's adoption.

15. Transferability.

Options granted under this Plan shall provide that they will not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and cannot be exercised by anyone other than the option holder during his lifetime, except that in the case of disability, the holder's legal representative may exercise the option on the holders behalf, and after the Grantee's death, the option may be exercised in accordance with Section 9 above.

16. Amendment and Revocation.

The Board of Directors alone shall have the right to alter, amend or revoke the Plan or any part thereof at any time and from time to time, provided, however, that without the consent of the optionees, no change may be made in any option theretofore granted which will impair the rights of existing optionees; and provided further that the Board of Directors may not, without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock, make any alteration or amendment to the Plan which changes

9

the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan, extend the term of the Plan or of options granted thereunder, reduce the option price below that now provided for in the Plan, or change the employees or class of employees eligible to receive options thereunder.

17. Ratification of the Plan.

This plan shall be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for approval at a meeting to be held within twelve months following its adoption by the Board.
