This Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2009 (the “Agreement”), is by and between Telular Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Simcoe Partners, L.P., Simcoe Management Company, LLC and Jeffrey Jacobowitz (collectively referred to herein as “The Simcoe Group”).

WHEREAS, the Simcoe Group has filed a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the election of two nominees to the Board of Directors of the Company at the Company’s 2009 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “2009 Annual Meeting”) and conducting a proxy contest in respect thereof;

WHEREAS, the Company and the Simcoe Group have agreed that it is in their mutual interests and in the best interests of Company shareholders to enter into this Agreement, which, among other things, terminates the pending proxy contest for the election of directors at the 2009 Annual Meeting (the “Proxy Contest”);

WHEREAS, the Company has agreed that, in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting, the Board (i) will withdraw the nomination of John E. Berndt for election as a member of the Board and (ii) will nominate for election as a member of the Board, and recommend that the shareholders vote to elect as a director of the Company, Jeffrey Jacobowitz, founder of Simcoe Partners, L.P. (the “Simcoe Nominee”);

WHEREAS, the Simcoe Group has agreed to refrain from submitting any director nominations and to vote for the election of the Company’s nominees for directors at the 2009 Annual Meeting.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 2.1 Board of Directors, Annual Meeting and Related Matters.

(a) 2009 Annual Meeting. The Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to cause the 2009 Annual Meeting to be held and the election of directors thereat to be conducted on the scheduled date of February 3, 2009, and shall not delay or postpone such meeting date or election, unless a quorum is not obtained, in which case the Company shall hold the meeting as promptly thereafter as practicable.

(1) withdraw and not present the nomination of John E. Berndt as a director of the Company;

(4) cause all proxies received by the Company to be voted in the manner specified by such proxies for election of directors and generally in favor of the Simcoe Nominee and the other Company nominees where such proxies do not specify how they should be cast.

(c) Efforts. The Company shall use all reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Simcoe Nominee is elected by the shareholders at the 2009 Annual Meeting.

(d) Role of Simcoe Nominee. The Simcoe Nominee, upon election to the Board, will serve as an integral member of the Board and will be governed by the same protections and obligations regarding confidentiality, conflicts of interests, fiduciary duties, trading and disclosure policies and other governance guidelines and shall have the same rights and benefits, including with respect to insurance, indemnification, compensation and fees, as are applicable to all independent directors of the Company.

(e) Proxy Solicitation Materials. The Company and the Board agree that the Company’s proxy statement and proxy cards for the 2009 Annual Meeting and all other solicitation materials to be delivered to shareholders in connection with the 2009 Annual Meeting (in each case excepting any materials delivered prior to the date hereof) shall be prepared in accordance with, and in furtherance of, this Agreement. The Company will provide the Simcoe Group with copies of any portion of proxy materials or other solicitation materials that contain statements relating to the Simcoe Group, the Simcoe Nominee or this Agreement a reasonable period (and, in any event, at least one business day) in advance of filing such materials with the SEC or disseminating the same in order to permit the Simcoe Group a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such materials.
