Its principal business is the marketing, distribution and service of wireless component and network solutions in support of both voice and date applications, both domestically and internationally. BlueCoral Limited RSM House Herbert Street Dublin 2, Ireland The Annual Meeting of ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. Time, Place and Date (Page 1) The Annual Meeting will be held on October 31, 2006, starting at 10:00 a.m. local time, at the Company's offices (10601 West 48th Avenue, I-70 Frontage Road North, Wheat Ridge, Colorado 80033-2660). Purpose (Page 1) At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders of the Company will be asked to consider and vote upon (i) a proposal to elect a Board of Directors consisting of four directors; (ii) a proposal recommended by the Board of Directors to approve the sale of the Company's subsidiary, Winncom Technologies Corp.; (iii) a proposal recommended by the Board of Directors to ratify the selection of HEIN + Associates LLP to serve as the Company's certified independent accountants for the year ending December 31, 2006; (iv) a proposal recommended by the Board of Directors to authorize the Board of Directors to determine whether to effect a reverse split of our outstanding common stock; and (v) to transact any other business that properly may come before the Annual Meeting. 2 The Sale of Winncom Reasons for the Sale of Winncom (Page 28) The Company's reasons for the sale of Winncom include, among other factors: o Winncom's low margins; o Winncom's lack of manufacturing and intellectual property; o Lack of synergistic operational savings of Winncom's business; and o Alternative long term growth strategies. Consideration (Page 29) In exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Winncom, BlueCoral will pay to the Company $17,000,000. BlueCoral has already placed the $17,000,000 in escrow, and the escrow agent will distribute the full purchase price to the Company at the closing date. Conditions to Closing (Page 33) Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, before the sale of Winncom can be completed, a number of conditions must be satisfied or waived. In addition to breaches of the Stock Purchase Agreement, these conditions include, among other matters, the following: o the Company's shareholders must approve the sale of Winncom at the Annual Meeting; o the delivery of certificates by both the Company and BlueCoral; o the delivery of the full purchase price, $17,000,000, to the Company. Indemnification (Page 35) Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company will indemnify BlueCoral and its affiliates from losses that result from, among other matters, breaches by the Company of any representation or warranty in the Stock Purchase Agreement, breaches by the Company of any covenant in the Stock Purchase Agreement, and any product shipped by Winncom to a customer prior to the closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement (limited to the total amount covered under that product's warranty, if any). The Company will not indemnify BlueCoral from any breaches of any representations or warranties made by Winncom in the Stock Purchase Agreement. VOTING SECURITIES The close of business on September 25, 2006 has been fixed as the record date for the determination of holders of record of the Company's common stock, $.0005 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the record date, 154,359,449 shares of Common 3 Stock were outstanding and eligible to be voted at the Annual Meeting. A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented either in person or by proxy, constitutes a quorum at any meeting of the shareholders. If sufficient votes for approval of the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting have not been received prior to the meeting date, we intend to postpone or adjourn the Annual Meeting in order to solicit additional votes. The form of proxy we are soliciting requests authority for the proxies, in their discretion, to vote the shareholders' shares with respect to a postponement or adjournment of the Annual Meeting. At any postponed or adjourned meeting, we will vote any proxies received in the same manner described in this Proxy Statement with respect to the original meeting. VOTING PROCEDURES Votes at the Annual Meeting are counted by an inspector of election appointed by the Chairman of the meeting. If a quorum is present, an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by those present in person or by proxy is required for the approval of items submitted to shareholders for their consideration, unless a different number of votes is required by Utah law or our Articles of Incorporation. Abstentions by those present at the Annual Meeting are tabulated separately from affirmative and negative votes and do not constitute affirmative votes. If a shareholder returns his or her proxy card and withholds authority to vote for any or all of the nominees, the votes represented by the proxy card will be deemed to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum but will not be counted as affirmative votes. Shares in the names of brokers that are not voted on a particular matter are treated as not present with respect to that matter. BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY'S EQUITY SECURITIES At the Annual Meeting, holders of 154,359,449 shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the record date, will have the right to vote. Each share, unless otherwise set forth herein, is entitled to one vote. On September 1, 2006, there were 154,359,449 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. The number of shares beneficially owned includes shares of Common Stock with respect to which the persons named below have either investment or voting power. A person is also deemed to be the beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of that security within 60 days through the exercise of an option or through the conversion of another security. Except as noted, each beneficial owner has sole investment and voting power with respect to the Common Stock. Common Stock not outstanding that is the subject to options or conversion privileges is deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by the person holding such options or conversion privileges, but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by any other person. The following table summarizes certain information as of August 4, 2006 with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each director, by all executive officers and directors as a group, and by each other person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of our common stock: 4 Number of Shares Percent of Name and Address of Beneficial Owner Beneficially Owned (1) Class ------------------------------------ ---------------------- ----- Sigmund A.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders will elect four directors to serve as our Board of Directors. Each director will be elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and thereafter until his successor is elected and qualified. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the meeting is required to elect each director. Cumulative voting is not permitted in the election of directors. Consequently, each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held in his or her name. Each record holder of stock shall be entitled to vote in the election of directors and shall have as many votes for each of the shares owned by him as there are directors to be elected and for whose election he has the right to vote. As a result, a shareholder may vote all of his or her shares for each nominee, but may not cumulate the votes to vote more than the total number of shares owned for any one nominee. In the absence of instructions to the contrary, the person named in the accompanying proxy shall vote the shares represented by that proxy for the persons named below as management's nominees for directors. Each of the nominees currently is a director of the Company. Each of the nominees has consented to be named in this Proxy Statement and to serve on the Board of Directors if elected. It is not anticipated that any of the nominees will become unable or unwilling to accept his nomination or election, but, if that should occur, the persons named in the proxy intend to vote for the election of such other person as the Board of Directors may recommend. The following table sets forth, with respect to each nominee for director, the nominee's age, his positions and offices with the Company, the expiration of his term as a director, and the year in which he first became a director. Individual background information concerning each of the nominees follows the table. For additional information concerning the nominees, including stock ownership and compensation, see "Executive Compensation," "Beneficial Ownership of The Company's Equity Securities," and "Certain Transactions With Management and Principal Shareholders." 7 Expiration Of Initial Date Name Age Position With The Company Term As Director As Director ---- --- ------------------------- ---------------- ----------- Sigmund A.

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS Other Executive Officers and Directors The following table sets forth with respect to each other executive officer, the officer's age, the officer's positions and offices with the Company, the expiration of his term as an officer and the period during which he has served. Initial Date Name Age Position With The Company As Officer ---- --- ------------------------- ---------- Monty R. Lamirato 50 Chief Financial Officer; Treasurer 2001 Steven C. Olson 49 Chief Technology Officer 2001 Gregory E. Raskin 52 President; Chief Executive Officer 2001 of Winncom; Director 9 Monty R. Lamirato. has been Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer since June 2001. Prior to joining the Company Mr. Lamirato served as the VP Finance for GS2.Net, Inc, an application service provider, from November 2000 to May 2001. From June 1999 to October 2000 was Vice President of Finance for Planet Outdoors.com, an e-commerce retailer. From November 1993 to June 1999 Mr. Lamirato was President and Shareholder of Monty R. Lamirato, PC, a business consulting firm. Mr. Lamirato has been a certified public accountant in the State of Colorado since 1978. Steven C. Olson. Mr. Olson serves as our Chief Technology Officer. Prior to joining ARC Wireless in August 2001, Mr. Olson was employed at Ball Aerospace for 14 years, including the last five years as Director of Engineering for Ball's Wireless Communications Solutions Division. In this capacity Mr. Olson led the development of new technologies, resulting in industry leading antenna solutions for the wireless communications market. Before the Ball Wireless Communications unit was formed, Mr. Olson developed Ball's high performance, low cost AirBASE(TM) antenna technology, specifically for use in its future commercial wireless business. He received his Bachelors and Masters of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Utah in 1984 and 1985, respectively. Gregory E. Raskin. Mr. Raskin, President of the Company and CEO of Winncom. He founded Winncom in 1995 and joined us coincident with the acquisition of Winncom in May 2000. Mr. Raskin was elected as a Director of the Company in February 2001. Previous to Winncom, he was founder and President of a company that introduced (and certified) Wireless LANs to former Soviet Block Countries. He holds MS degrees in Electrical Engineering and Control System Engineering. Mr. Raskin is currently a director of the Company and is not standing for reelection. As discussed below in "Item 2. Proposal to Approve the Sale of Winncom Technologies Corp. - Interests of Directors and Executive Officers in the Sale of Winncom," Mr. Raskin will continue to be employed by Winncom in the event that the shareholders of the Company approve the sale of Winncom. Because of this fact, both the Company and Mr. Raskin believe that it is in the best interests of the shareholders if Mr. Raskin is not reelected as a director of the Company. If the sale of Winncom is approved, Mr. Raskin will also resign from his position as the President of the Company. The seat on the Board of Directors currently occupied by Mr. Raskin will become vacant immediately after the Annual Meeting, and will remain vacant until the Board of Directors or the shareholders of the Company fill that board seat. After the Annual Meeting, the Board of Directors will determine whether to add one or more additional directors. If the shareholders do not approve the sale of Winncom, it is possible that the Board of Directors could elect Mr. Raskin to become a director. This possibility has not been considered by the Board of Directors. Each of our officers serves at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. There are no family relationships among our officers and directors. 10 Board Meetings The Board of Directors met five times during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, and each director participated in at least 75% of the meetings of the Board of Directors. At this time the Company has not adopted a formal process for security holders to send communications to the Board of Directors because the Chairman of the Board of Directors, who is also the Company's Chief Executive Officer, has had a longstanding practice of striving to promptly respond to shareholder inquiries, either by e-mail, letter or telephone. The Company encourages each member of the Board of Directors to attend the Annual Meeting of the shareholders, but does not require any member to do so. The Company did not have an annual meeting of the shareholders during the 2005 fiscal year. All four of the then-incumbent directors attended the Company's last annual meeting of the shareholders, held on November 9, 2004. Committees of the Board of Directors The Company has standing audit and compensation committees of the Board of Directors. The Company does not currently have a standing nominating committee of the Board of Directors because it believes that the nominating functions should be relegated to the full board. Audit Committee The Company's audit committee (the "Audit Committee") consists of three independent directors, Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban, who is Chairman of the committee, Mr. Robert E. Wade and Dr. Donald A. Huebner. For fiscal year 2005, and until January 2, 2006, the Audit Committee consisted of Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban, Chairman, Mr. Randall P. Marx and Mr. Gregory E. Raskin. The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include overseeing our financial reporting process, reporting the results of its activities to the Board of Directors, retaining and ensuring the independence of our auditors, approving services to be provided by our auditors, reviewing our periodic filings with the independent auditors prior to filing, and reviewing and responding to any matters raised by the independent auditors in their management letter. The Board of Directors has determined that at least one member of the Audit Committee, Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban, is an Audit Committee financial expert. The Audit Committee met one time during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex A. The Audit Committee will review and assess the adequacy of the audit committee charter annually. Audit Committee Report Management is responsible for the Company's internal controls and financial reporting process. The independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company's financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and to issue a report thereon. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes and to engage and discharge the Company's auditors. It is not our duty or our responsibility to conduct auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. Some of us are not accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting or auditing. Therefore, we have relied, without independent verification, on management's representation that the financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity and in 11 conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and on the representations of the independent auditors included in the report on the Company's financial statements. Our oversight does not provide us with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, our considerations and discussions with management and the independent auditors do not assure that the Company's financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that the audit of the Company's financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, or that the Company's independent accountants are in fact "independent." In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions separately with management and the independent accountants. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the financial statements with management and the independent accountants. The Audit Committee discussed with the independent accountants matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communications with Audit Committees, as currently in effect. The Company's independent accountants also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosure required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees. The Committee discussed with the independent accountants that firm's independence and considered whether the non-audit services provided by the independent accountants are compatible with maintaining its independence. Based on the Audit Committee's discussion with management and the independent accountants, and the Audit Committee's review of the representations of management and the report of the independent accounts to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board of Directors include the audited financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Submitted by the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors: Sigmund A. Balaban, Chairman Robert E. Wade Donald A. Huebner Compensation Committee The Board of Directors currently has a compensation committee (the "Compensation Committee"), consisting of Mr. Robert E. Wade, the Chairman of the Compensation Committee, Mr. Randall P. Marx, Mr. Gregory E. Raskin and Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban, which met two times and two times, respectively, during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. 12 Compensation Committee Report The following is a report of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors on executive compensation policies for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The Committee is composed of Mr. Randall P. Marx, Mr. Gregory E. Raskin, Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban and Mr. Robert E. Wade, is responsible for administering the compensation program for executive officers of the Company and making all related decisions. The principal elements of the compensation program for executive officers are base salary, performance-based annual bonuses, and options granted under the Company's 1997 Stock Option and Compensation Plan. The goals of the program are to ensure that a strong relationship exists between executive compensation and the creation of shareholder value, and that executive officers are strongly motivated and retained. The Company's compensation philosophy is to create a direct relationship between the level of total executive officer compensation and the Company's success in meeting its annual performance goals as represented by its annual business plan. An additional element of this philosophy is to reward equitably relative contributions and job performances of individual executive officers. Base Salary The Company's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer and President, historically have had multi-year employment agreements with the Company. As of August 4, 2006, each of the Chief Executive Officer, the President, and the Chief Financial Officer has an employment agreement with the Company. Annual salaries for the Company's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer and President, are generally reviewed prior to the expiration of employment agreements in effect, based on a number of objective and subjective factors. Objective factors considered include Company's financial performance relative to business plan profit objectives, although no specific formulas based on such factors are used to determine salaries. Salary decisions are based primarily on the Compensation Committee's subjective analysis of the factors contributing to the Company's success and of the executive's individual contributions to that success. Options Executive officers are eligible to receive stock options to purchase shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to the Company's 1997 Stock Option and Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is administered by an option committee. Performance-based Annual Bonuses Cash bonuses based on the Company's performance are awarded to the executive officers under an incentive compensation plan. Under the plan which historically has served as the basis for bonuses paid, executive officers received a percentage of their base pay based on the overall performance of the Company. Additional bonuses may be awarded at the discretion of the Committee in recognition of special accomplishments. Thus, whether the executive officers' 13 total pay is comparable to the compensation of executives with similar responsibilities at comparable companies may vary from year to year depending upon the Company's performance. CEO Compensation We entered into a new written three year employment agreement with Mr. Marx effective January 2, 2004. In accordance with his employment agreement, Mr. Marx is to receive an annual base salary of $195,000 in 2004, $235,000 in 2005 and $245,000 in 2006. In addition, Mr. Marx can receive bonuses up to $90,000, $100,000 and $150,000 in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively if certain net profit goals are achieved. Mr. Marx earned a bonus of $50,000 for 2005 and $90,000 for 2004, Mr. Marx is eligible to receive a bonus as follows: 2005 Net Profit Bonus --------------- ----- $250,000 $25,000 $500,000 $50,000 $1,000,000 $100,000 2006 Net Profit Bonus --------------- ----- $500,000 $50,000 $1,000,000 $100,000 $1,250,000 $125,000 $1,500,000 $150,000 Other Compensation An additional element of the executive officer's compensation, which is not performance-based, is the matching of eligible contributions by the Company under the Company's 401(k) plan. The Compensation Committee believes that linking executive compensation to corporate performance results in a better alignment of compensation with corporate goals and shareholder interests. As performance goals are met or exceeded, resulting in increased value to shareholders, executives are rewarded commensurately. The Committee believes that compensation levels during the 2006 fiscal year adequately reflect the Company's compensation goals and policies. Submitted by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors: Robert E. Wade Randall P. Marx Sigmund A. Balaban Gregory E. Raskin Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation The Compensation Committee is composed of Mr. Robert E. Wade, Mr. Sigmund A. Balaban, Mr. Gregory E. Raskin, and Mr. Randall P. Marx. None of these individuals served as a member of the compensation committee of another entity 14 that has an executive officer serving on the Compensation Committee of the Company. No executive officer of the Company served as a director of another entity that has an executive officer serving on the Compensation Committee of the Company. No executive officer of the Company served as a member of the compensation committee of another entity, which had an executive officer serving as a director of the Company. Mr. Marx and Mr. Raskin are executive officers of the Company. Nominating Committee As disclosed above, the entire Board of Directors serves as the Company's Nominating Committee. Nominees for director will be selected by a majority of the Company's directors. In selecting nominees for the board, the Company is seeking a board with a variety of experiences and expertise, and therefore will consider business experience in the telecommunications industry, financial expertise, independence from transactions with the Company, experience with publicly traded companies, experience with relevant regulatory matters in which the Company is involved and reputation for integrity and professionalism. There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors.

Employee Retirement Plans, Long-Term Incentive Plans, and Pension Plans Other than our stock option and 401(k) plan, we have no employee retirement plan, pension plan, or long-term incentive plan to serve as incentive for performance to occur over a period longer than one fiscal year. 1997 Stock Option and Compensation Plan In November 1997, the Board of Directors approved our 1997 Stock Option and Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Pursuant to the Plan, we may grant options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to key employees, directors, and other persons who have or are contributing to our success. On November 9, 2004, the shareholders approved to amend the 1997 Stock Option and Compensation Plan to allow for an aggregate of 10,000,000 options to be granted under "the Plan". The options granted pursuant to the Plan may be incentive 17 options qualifying for beneficial tax treatment for the recipient or they may be non-qualified options. The Plan is administered by an option committee that determines the terms of the options subject to the requirements of the Plan, except that the option committee shall not administer the Plan with respect to automatic grants of options to our directors who are not our employees. The option committee may be the entire board or a committee of the board. Through May 24, 2000, directors who were not also our employees ("Outside Directors") automatically received options to purchase 250,000 shares pursuant to the Plan at the time of their election as an Outside Director. These options held by Outside Directors were not exercisable at the time of grant. Options to purchase 50,000 shares became exercisable for each meeting of the Board of Directors attended by each Outside Director on or after the date of grant of the options to that Outside Director, but in no event earlier than six months following the date of grant. The exercise price for options granted to Outside Directors was equal to the closing price per share of our common stock on the date of grant. All options granted to Outside Directors expired five years after the date of grant. On the date that all of an Outside Director's options became exercisable, options to purchase an additional 250,000 shares, which were exercisable no earlier than six months from the date of grant, were automatically granted to that Outside Director. On May 24, 2000, the Board of Directors voted to (1) decrease the amount of options automatically granted to Outside Directors from 250,000 to 25,000 options, and (2) decrease the amount of exercisable options from 50,000 to 5,000 per meeting. The term of the Outside Director option granted in the future was lowered from five years to two years. The other terms of the Outside Director options did not change. On July 5, 2002, the Board of Directors voted to (1) increase the number of options automatically granted to Outside Directors from 25,000 to 125,000 options, and (2) increase the number of exercisable options from 5,000 to 25,000 per meeting. The other terms of the Outside Director options did not change. The Company granted a total of 250,000 options to Outside Directors under the Plan during 2005 at exercise prices ranging from $.11 to $.15 per share. The Company granted a total of 250,000 options to Outside Directors under the Plan during 2004 and 2002, at an exercise price of $.16 and $.13 per share, respectively. No options were granted during 2003. As of December 31, 2005, there were 425,000 exercisable options outstanding related to the grants to Outside Directors. Dr. Donald Huebner's employment terminated on January 31, 2002 but he continues as a Director of the Company, as such all of his options are disclosed as Outside Directors options. In addition to Outside Directors grants, the Board of Directors may grant incentive options to our key employees pursuant to the Plan. There were no options granted in 2003 but in 2005 and 2004, the board granted a total of 1,100,000 options under the Plan to employees with exercise prices ranging from $.12 to $.15. As of December 31, 2005, there were 2,100,000 exercisable options outstanding related to grants to employees, all of which were granted under the Plan. 18 Equity Compensation Plan Information Securities authorized for issuance under our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2005 are as follows: Number of securities to be Weighted-average exercise Number of securities remaining issued upon exercise of price of outstanding available for future issuance under outstanding options, options, warrants and equity compensation plans warrants and rights rights (excluding securities reflected in Plan Category (a) (b) column (a)) ---------------------------- -------------------------- ------------------------- ----------------------------------- Equity compensation plans 2,525,000 $.15 6,267,000 approved by security holders Equity compensation plans -- -- -- not approved by security holders Total 2,525,000 $.15 6,267,000 Compensation of Outside Directors Standard Arrangements.

ITEM 2. PROPOSAL TO APPROVE THE SALE OF WINNCOM TECHNOLOGIES CORP. The Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders vote in favor of the sale of the Company's subsidiary Winncom Technologies Corp. ("Winncom"). The affirmative vote of a majority of shares outstanding is necessary to approve the sale of Winncom. The Companies Winncom Technologies Corp. Winncom is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, which is in marketing, distribution and service of wireless component and network solutions in support of both voice and data applications, both domestically and internationally. Winncom's principal executive offices are located at 30700 Carter Street, Suite A., Solon, Ohio 44139. In October 2004, Winncom entered into a "Frame" Agreement (Agreement of Understanding) with Joint Stock Company Kazakhtelecom ("Kazakhtelecom"), Kazakhstan's national telecommunications operator for the Republic of Kazakhstan, that gives Winncom the right, subject to Winncom obtaining 100% financing for the project upon terms and conditions acceptable to Kazakhtelecom, and subject to a number of other matters, to undertake, on a turnkey basis, development of a modern telecommunications infrastructure to be located on the left bank of the City of Astana, Kazakhstan. With several competing bids, Winncom was awarded the contract after several months of negotiations. The total cost of the project is for a total of approximately $55,000,000. On May 9, 2005, the Export Import Bank of the United States ("Ex-Im Bank") Board of Directors approved the majority of the financing for a project awarded to Winncom Technologies Corp. ("Winncom") for the development of a modern telecommunications infrastructure to be located on the left bank of the City of Astana, Kazakhstan. The Ex-Im Bank is the official export credit agency of the United States. Ex-Im Bank's mission is to assist in financing the export of U.S. goods and services to international markets. In August 2005, Societe Generale bank, New York, NY, committed to finance up to $11 million of the remaining amount necessary for the previously announced turnkey telecommunications project in Kazakhstan. Societe Generale New York, NY, would be the lender for the entire $55 million to JSC Kazakhtelecom, of which the Ex-Im Bank of New York had previously agreed to guarantee up to $48 million. The primary guarantor for repayment of the $55 million would be Kazkommertsbank, Kazakhstan's largest bank. 23 In January 2006, the Ex-Im Bank guaranteed portion of financing totaling approximately $48 million was closed and JSC Kazakhtelecom committed to the balance of the $55 million tender to either pay directly to Winncom or through a loan from other lenders. Societe Generale is lending the money to Kazkommertsbank on behalf of the end user, JSC Kazakhtelecom. JSC Kazakhtelecom had approved the work program and timeline for part of the project, submitted by Winncom earlier, which was a prerequisite prior to the closing of the previously announced $2.3 million financing for Winncom to accelerate the installation of the fiber optic cable. Winncom completed the installation of the fiber optic cable portion of the project in October 2005. The first phase of the contract is expected to be completed by the end of 2006 and is expected to generate revenues of $18 to $22 million. Principal products of Winncom include the following: Unlicensed Wireless Products ---------------------------- Unlicensed wireless products use frequencies that require a license to manufacture but not a license to use. Winncom's primary products are the Wi-Fi(R), WiMAX, and other license free products operating in the 900MHz to 5.8GHz and 60GHz frequency ranges for most license free standards. Any business or consumer may use these products as long as they do not interfere with other users. Winncom currently markets products manufactured by Alvarion, Axxcelera, Bridgewave, Cisco, Proxim("Terabeam"), Motorola, Nomadix, Orthogon Systems, Colubris, Sky Pilot and BellAir, all of which are leaders in the unlicensed communications hardware market. These products are used in high-speed (up to 1Gb) point-to-point and point-to-multi-point wireless networking applications, including, among others, internet access, hot spots, local and wide area networks (LAN/WAN), Voice Over IP (VoIP), telco applications and industrial process automation and data acquisition. Licensed Wireless Products -------------------------- Licensed wireless products require a Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") license to operate on a specific frequency in a geographic area. Winncom distributes point-to-point microwave products including Alvarion, and Avante (Witcom). These microwave products are used as a backbone to connect service providers' cell sites or enterprise multiple locations for data and voice applications. Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) ----------------------------------- VoIP allows voice communications to be placed over standard Internet networks. This is critical for emerging Wireless Internet Service Providers so they can offer complete voice and data service to generate revenue to compete with DSL and Cable Modem service. Winncom distributes Avaya, Cisco, Lucent, Multitech, and VoIP products and Broadvox VoIP solutions for enterprise and residential markets. VoIP products combined with wireless environment delivers complete communication solutions for users of mobile devices such as PDAs, WEB PADs and Tablet PCs. 24 Antennas -------- Winncom sells both customer premise equipment (CPE) and base station antenna solutions as well as a full range of antennas for point-to-point and point-to-multi-point applications. Winncom offers directional panel antennas, as well as a variety of sectorized and omni-directional, amplified CPE antennas and Ethernet CPE antennas for wireless Internet access and various data and voice applications. Accessories ----------- Winncom is a full service value-added distributor, specializing in the design and development of a host of accessory products. These products include the amplifiers, 2.4GHz-5.8GHz, and 2.4GHz-5.8GHz frequency converters, filters, power supplies, power cords, and environmental enclosures necessary for the installation and optimum performance of a wireless network. The 2.4GHz to 5.8GHz frequency converter, designed by Winncom engineers, enhances the deployment of the readily available low-cost 2.4GHz wireless WAN/ LAN equipment sold by Winncom. The main applications for this new solution include wireless Internet access, campus wireless LANs, and wireless spectrum WANs. The frequency converter will provide additional transmission channels in the unlicensed spectrum resulting in a considerable increase in bandwidth capacity. It also promotes usage of the 5.8GHz spectrum to supplement network performance where the 2.4GHz spectrum is saturated. The product is sold both domestically and internationally. Network Infrastructure Product ------------------------------ Winncom offers a complete line of high-performance voice and data infrastructure and security products by AVAYA Communication, Cisco, Comet, Lucent Technologies, Multitech, and RAD. The virtual private network systems (VPN) enable organizations of all sizes, from small businesses to large enterprises and managed data service providers, to securely connect remote users, branch offices, business partners, and customers, taking full advantage of the cost savings and productivity enhancing benefits of virtual private networks. The voice and data products are designed for the new generation of network (NGN) architectures that cost-effectively integrate voice, video, and data on a single infrastructure, while providing reliability, ubiquity, and security to meet the challenges and dynamic requirements of the enterprise business environment from converged networks to e-business solutions. Other Products -------------- Winncom offers a wide range of copper, coaxial and fiber cables and cable assembly products as well as lightning arrestors that are used in the installation, extension and protection of wireless end-to-end systems. Winncom also offers a variety of environmental enclosures for a broad range of wireless products for outdoor applications. Winncom continuously evaluates new products, exploring the new markets and pursues distribution alliances with manufacturers whose equipment complements Winncom's product offerings as well as the development of Winncom's proprietary products that include amplifiers, frequency converters, antennas, outdoor enclosures and RF accessories. 25 BlueCoral Limited ("BlueCoral") BlueCoral has had no operations prior to the proposed acquisition of Winncom, and was activated solely for the purpose of acquiring Winncom. If the proposed acquisition of Winncom is complete, BlueCoral's business will be to continue Winncom's existing lines of business. The principal executive offices of BlueCoral are located at: BlueCoral Limited, RSM House, Herbert Street, Dublin 2, Ireland. With the exception of Mr. Raskin's continued employment with Winncom after the sale of Winncom to BlueCoral, none of the officers, directors or employees of ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. currently has or will have any affiliation with BlueCoral. The Sale of Winncom Background of the Merger Winncom's international business potential began growing significantly in calendar years 2004 and 2005. During that period, Winncom was awarded a $55,000,000 contract with the Joint Stock Company Kazahktelecom, the national telecommunications operation in the Republic of Kazahkstan, and was quickly becoming one of the leaders in telecommunications infrastructure business in that region of the world. Winncom's domestic sales remained consistent and margins continued to improve compared to previous years. The challenges and opportunities raised by Winncom's expansion led the Company's Board of Directors to begin reviewing the Company's overall business strategy. Between May and August of 2005, two third parties approached the Company on an unsolicited basis on the possibility of acquiring Winncom. Although our Board of Directors was not pursuing a sale of Winncom at that time, the Board of Directors determined that it would consider the possibility of such a sale if a third party made an attractive offer that the Board of Directors believed fully valued the asset. Accordingly, our Board of Directors authorized management to engage in preliminary discussions with those two companies and with one or more investment banking firms. Through October 2005, neither the discussions with the two companies or with the investment banking firms, resulted in any specific proposals or other developments for the Company. In November, 2005, Mr. Raskin, CEO and President of Winncom, met with LebGOK Trading AG, an affiliate of BlueCoral ("LebGOK"), while on business in Kazahkstan. During that meeting, Mr. Giorgio Solari, the sole member of the Board of Directors of LebGOK, expressed an interest in expanding LebGOK's current business to include telecommunications by acquiring Winncom from the Company. Upon his return to the United States, Mr. Raskin reported the details of this meeting to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board of Directors requested that LebGOK's interest be expressed in writing and Mr. Raskin, after contacting Mr. Solari, informed the Board of Directors that a written offer was imminent. On November 29, 2005 the Company received a letter of intent from LebGOK to purchase Winncom. On December 8, 2005 the Company's Board of Directors 26 met and authorized a counter offer to LebGOK, which our CEO conveyed to LebGOK by letter dated December 8, 2005. On February 14, 2006, the Company received a letter from LebGOK indicating that it was ready to execute a letter of intent to buy Winncom for $17,000,000 contingent upon certain terms and conditions specified by LebGOK. On February 21, 2006 the Board of Directors met to form a Special Committee consisting of Mr. Sigmund Balaban, Dr. Donald Huebner, Mr. Randall P. Marx and Mr. Robert E. Wade to pursue this transaction. The Special Committee then agreed that it would pursue negotiation and execution of a definitive purchase agreement with LebGOK that would require the deposit by LebGOK of the full amount of the purchase price in escrow upon signing the definitive Stock Purchase Agreement. Concurrently, the Company contacted the other interested third parties to confirm and discuss if they were still interested in acquiring Winncom and at what valuation. Neither party was interested in pursuing matters at that time. The Board of Directors then determined that the LebGOK offer was in the best interests of the Company's shareholders, and the Board of Directors authorized management to pursue the sale of Winncom Technologies Corp. to LebGOK Trading AG. Prior to execution of the final agreements, LebGOK designated BlueCoral to be the purchaser, and on July 28, 2006, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell Winncom to BlueCoral for $17 million cash. Company's Plans after Annual Meeting If the shareholders approve the sale of Winncom, upon completion of the transaction, the Company intends to pursue the acquisition of one or more other businesses that appear attractive to the Board of Directors because of anticipated growth and profitability, intellectual property, and/or being synergistic with other portions of the Company's business. Also if the shareholders approve the sale of Winncom, and if the shareholders approve the reverse stock split described elsewhere in this Proxy Statement, the Company will determine whether to apply for listing on the American Stock Exchange or NASDAQ Capital Market and to implement the reverse split. If the shareholders do not approve the sale of Winncom, the Board of Directors will determine whether to solicit other offers to purchase Winncom and whether to proceed with a stock exchange listing and/or a reverse split. Reasons for the Sale of Winncom Listed below are the material factors that the special committee and the Company's Board of Directors considered in their decision. Neither the Special Committee nor the Company's Board of Directors assigned any specific or relative weight to the factors listed below. One of the benefits to the Company of acquiring Winncom in 2000 was to bolster the Company's revenue growth. This was helpful, among other things, because of the risk and investment required in research and development to significantly increase the revenues of the Company's existing antenna business. Winncom's business did in fact grow at a steady rate with margins decreasing substantially over the first three years then stabilizing and slightly increasing after 2003. In 2005, with Winncom contributing approximately 50% of the Company's profit and accounting for over 80% of its revenue, the Board of Directors and its senior management determined that Winncom was being valued in the investment community as a distributor rather than as a supplier of 27 telecommunications solutions. This, in the opinion of the Board of Directors and senior management, was due to Winncom's low margins, lack of design, manufacturing and intellectual property. Moreover, Winncom's recent expansion in international telecommunication business had not resulted in an increase in the awareness of the Company's overall business. Additionally, there continued to be no synergistic operational savings with the Winncom business. In reviewing peer distribution public companies, it was documented that the Winncom portion of the Company's business was valued comparably to other distributors. This, as well as Winncom's low margins, high risk to return ratio, and even lower international margins, were taken into consideration. Realizing that the Company cannot rely solely on its antenna business for growth, the Board of Directors and senior management then discussed that a divesture of Winncom and subsequent acquisition of one or more other companies with higher margins, intellectual property and more synergistic operational savings, would result in a better long term business scenario for the Company and its shareholders. Recommendation of the Board of Directors and the Special Committee On July 27, 2006, the Special Committee unanimously determined that the sale of the stock of Winncom, based on the Stock Purchase Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in that agreement, is advisable, fair to, and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and recommended that the Board of Directors approve the Stock Purchase Agreement and proceed with a proxy statement for shareholder approval. In making its determination, the Special Committee considered a number of factors, as more fully described above under "Reasons for the Sale of Winncom." On July 27, 2006, at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company, with Mr. Raskin abstaining due to his continuing interest in Winncom, the Special Committee reported to the entire Board of Directors on its recommendation of the sale of Winncom based upon the Stock Purchase Agreement, and its determination of the advisability and fairness of the sale and the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement. At the same meeting the Board of Directors of the Company, with Mr. Raskin abstaining, confirmed the conclusions of the Special Committee. Accordingly, the Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval of the sale of all the stock of Winncom as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. Consideration Upon signing the Stock Purchase Agreement, BlueCoral placed the full purchase price, $17,000,000, into an escrow account in the name of the escrow agent, Consumer Title Services, LLC, at UBS Financial Services, Inc. The terms of the escrow account provide that when the sale of Winncom is completed, BlueCoral will authorize the escrow agent to distribute the full amount of the purchase price to the Company. Interests of Directors and Executive Officers in the Sale of Winncom In considering the recommendation of the Board of Directors that you vote "FOR" the sale of Winncom, you should be aware that the Company's directors and executive officers may have interests in the sale of Winncom that are different from , and/or in addition to, the interests of the Company's shareholders 28 generally. In particular, Gregory E. Raskin, the President of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, is also the Chief Executive Officer and President of Winncom. Upon the consummation of the sale of Winncom, Mr. Raskin will resign as the President of the Company. Mr. Raskin owns 4,069,162 shares of the Company's common stock. In addition, Mr. Raskin currently has an employment agreement with Winncom. We have been informed that if the sale of Winncom is consummated, Mr. Raskin will continue to be employed by Winncom as its Chief Executive Officer and President, under the same terms as are currently in place under that employment agreement. The Special Committee of independent directors carefully evaluated and negotiated the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement and unanimously determined that the Stock Purchase Agreement and the sale of Winncom, upon the terms and conditions set forth in the stock purchase agreement, is advisable, fair to, and in the best interests of the Company and its unaffiliated shareholders and recommended that the Board of Directors approve the sale of Winncom. The Board of Directors has approved this matter (with Mr. Raskin abstaining). Both the Special Committee and the Board of Directors were aware of these differing interests and considered them, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the Stock Purchase Agreement, and in recommending to the shareholders that the sale of Winncom be approved. Regulatory Approvals We are not aware of any material governmental or regulatory approval required for completion of the sale of Winncom. The Stock Purchase Agreement The following discussion summarizes the material terms of the proposed sale of all the outstanding stock of Winncom by the Company. The following summary may not contain all of the information about the Stock Purchase Agreement that is important to you. The Company encourages each shareholder to read carefully the Stock Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex B to this Proxy Statement and is incorporated into this Proxy Statement by reference, in its entirety because it, not this Proxy Statement, is the legal document that governs the sale of Winncom. This Proxy Statement contains a description of representations and warranties made in the Stock Purchase Agreement. Representations and warranties are also set forth in the documents, including the Stock Purchase Agreement, that are attached or provided as annexes to this Proxy Statement. These representations and warranties were made only for the purposes of such documents as of specific dates, may be subject to important limitations and qualifications agreed to by the contracting parties, and may not be complete. Furthermore, these representations and warranties may have been made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the document instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may or may not have been accurate as of any specific date and do not purport to be accurate as of the date of this Proxy 29 Statement. Accordingly, you should not rely upon the descriptions of representations and warranties contained in this Proxy Statement or the actual representations and warranties contained in such documents, including the Stock Purchase Agreement, as statements of factual information. Closing and Effectiveness The sale of Winncom will occur and be effective on the closing date, which is the date specified by the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement after the satisfaction or waiver of all of the pre-closing conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The main pre-closing condition set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement is the approval of the sale of Winncom by the shareholders of the Company. On the closing date, the Company will transfer to BlueCoral all the issued and outstanding shares of Winncom in exchange for $17,000,000. Escrow Agreement After signing the Stock Purchase Agreement, the parties then signed an Escrow Agreement (see attached Annex C) with Consumer Title Services, LLC as Escrow Agent, stipulating that the Escrow Fund be deposited in a UBS Financial Services, Inc. account. BlueCoral subsequently deposited into a UBS Financial Services, Inc. account, held in title by Consumer Title Services, LLC., the full amount of the purchase price, $17,000,000. If the proposal to sell Winncom is approved by the shareholders of the Company, BlueCoral will be obligated to promptly give written notice to the Escrow Agent authorizing the Escrow Agent to distribute the Escrow Fund, $17,000,000, to the Company. If the proposal to sell Winncom is not approved by the shareholders of the Company, the Company will be obligated to promptly give written notice to the Escrow Agent authorizing the Escrow Agent to distribute the Escrow Fund, plus interest, less fees and expenses, to BlueCoral. Representations and Warranties Both the Company and Winncom make representations and warranties in the Stock Purchase Agreement that are subject, in some cases, to specified exceptions and qualifications and to disclosures made in confidential disclosure schedules delivered to BlueCoral, as to, among other things: o corporate organization, standing and qualification; o corporate power and authority to execute the agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated under the agreement; o absence of conflicts with charter documents, absence of breaches of material contracts and agreements, absence of violations of laws applicable to the representing party; o capitalization of Winncom; o existence, location, and ownership of subsidiaries of Winncom; 30 o the absence of undisclosed liabilities or obligations of Winncom; o the absence of specified changes or events after a specified date to Winncom; and the conduct of Winncom after such specified date; o the financial statements, accounts receivable, inventory, and assets of Winncom; o compliance by Winncom of certain federal, state, county and local laws; o title to tangible assets of Winncom and the absence of certain liens on those tangible assets; o the ownership of real property and leasehold interests in leased real property of Winncom; o tax matters; o material contracts of Winncom, including the validity and enforceability thereof, and the absence of material breaches or violations thereunder; o ownership of intellectual property of Winncom and the absence of infringement of any third party's intellectual property by Winncom; o Winncom's employee relations and benefits matters and compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; o Winncom's compliance with environmental laws and the absence of environmental claims against Winncom; o insurance matters; and o transactions with affiliates of Winncom. BlueCoral has made representations and warranties in the Stock Purchase Agreement to the Company that are subject, in some cases, to specified exceptions and qualifications and to disclosures made in confidential disclosure schedules delivered to the Company, as to, among other things: o corporate organization, standing and qualification; o corporate power and authority to execute the agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated under the agreement; and o absence of conflicts with charter documents, absence of breaches of material contracts and agreements, absence of violations of laws applicable to the representing party. 31 The representations and warranties in the Stock Purchase Agreement survive the closing of the sale of Winncom and terminate on December 31, 2007. Completion of the Sale The Company has agreed to use its best efforts to complete the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement as promptly as practicable. Access to Information Between the date the Stock Purchase Agreement was signed, and the closing date of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to furnish, or cause to be furnished, to BlueCoral, such financial, tax and operating data and other available information with respect to Winncom and its assets, properties, employees, businesses and operations as BlueCoral may reasonably request. Taxes The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that Winncom assumes the responsibility for, and agrees to promptly pay, all taxes of Winncom incurred prior to the closing of the sale of Winncom, or relating to any action or inaction of Winncom occurring prior to the closing of the sale of Winncom by the Company, including taxes of the Company that are attributable to the income of Winncom. Notices of Certain Events The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that each party has an obligation to promptly notify the other parties of any information: o which would prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement; o that would indicate a breach of the representations or warranties of any of the parties to the Stock Purchase Agreement; or o as to which any party intends to seek indemnity under any of the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement. Principal Conditions to the Completion of the Sale of Winncom The Company's obligations to complete the sale of Winncom pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver, on or prior to the closing, of the following conditions: o the representations and warranties of BlueCoral contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement must be true and correct in all material respects as of the closing date; 32 o BlueCoral shall have performed and satisfied all covenants, conditions and agreements required or contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement to be performed and satisfied by it on or prior to the closing date; o delivery to the Company by BlueCoral of a certificate, dated as of the closing date, as to the satisfaction of the preceding two conditions; o no action, suit or proceeding, before any court or governmental body or authority, which would materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, shall have been instituted or threatened on or before the closing date, nor shall any governmental investigation have been initiated which might reasonably be expected to lead to such litigation or proceeding; o the delivery by the escrow agent to the Company of the full purchase price $17,000,000; and o the approval of the sale of Winncom by the shareholders of the Company. BlueCoral's obligations to complete the sale of Winncom pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement are subject to the satisfaction or waiver, on or prior to the closing, of the following conditions: o the representations and warranties of the Company with regard to the compliance by Winncom of environmental matters shall be true and correct in all respects as of the closing date. o delivery to BlueCoral of a certificate, dated as of the closing date, as to the satisfaction of the preceding condition; o delivery to BlueCoral of a release and discharge by the Company, on behalf of itself and, with the exception of Mr. Raskin, each of its officers, directors, agents, employees, successors and assigns, and third parties acting on its behalf, of BlueCoral and Winncom, and each of their respective individual, joint or mutual, past, present and future officers, directors, agents, employees, affiliates, shareholders, controlling persons, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, from any and all claims demands, proceedings, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts, agreements, debts and liabilities whatsoever, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, both at law and in equity, which the Company now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against the respective releases arising contemporaneously with or prior to the closing date or on account of or arising out of any matter, cause or event occurring contemporaneously with or prior to the closing date, including, but not limited to, any rights to indemnification or reimbursement from the Company, whether pursuant to their respective organizational documents, contract or otherwise and whether or not relating to claims pending on, or asserted after, the Closing Date; provided, however, that the release shall not operate to release any obligations arising 33 (i) under the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) under any obligation of the Winncom under any contract with the Company that is disclosed in the schedules to the Stock Purchase Agreement, or (iii) from fraud, gross negligence or intentional misconduct by Winncom or any of its employees; o no action, suit or proceeding before any court or governmental body or authority, which would prohibit the transactions contemplated hereby, shall have been instituted or threatened on or before the closing date, nor shall any governmental investigation have been initiated which might reasonably be expected to lead to such litigation or proceeding; and o the approval of the sale of Winncom by the shareholders of the Company. Indemnification The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that the Company will indemnify, defend and hold harmless BlueCoral and its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages and liabilities (including attorneys' fees and expenses) suffered by any of BlueCoral and its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates to the extent resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to, alleged to result from, arise out of or have been incurred with respect to, (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty as of the date made or as of the closing date of the Company contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) any breach of any covenant of the Company contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) any product shipped by Winncom to a customer prior to the closing date, limited to the total amount covered under such product's warranty, if any. The Stock Purchase Agreement specifically provides that the Company will not indemnify BlueCoral from any damages resulting from, arising out of or having been incurred with respect to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty as of the date made or as of the closing date of Winncom made in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Stock Purchase Agreement further provides that the Company will not have any liability under the Stock Purchase Agreement until the total of all damages incurred by BlueCoral and its affiliates exceeds three percent of the purchase price, after which the Company shall be liable for the amount of damages incurred by BlueCoral and its affiliated in excess of the three percent, up to a maximum amount equal to thirty percent of the purchase price. The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that BlueCoral will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages and liabilities (including attorneys' fees and expenses) suffered by any of the Company and its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates to the extent resulting from, arising out of, or incurred with respect to, alleged to result from, arise out of or have been incurred with respect to (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty as of the date made or as of the closing date made by BlueCoral contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, (ii) any breach of any covenant of BlueCoral contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, and (iii) all costs, liabilities, taxes and expenses incurred by Winncom after the closing date that relate to the activities of Winncom after the closing date. 34 Fees and Expenses The Stock Purchase Agreement provides that all costs and expenses incurred by BlueCoral in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement shall be borne by BlueCoral, and all costs and expenses incurred by the Company or otherwise in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to any and all expenses of the Company relating to the receipt of the consent of the shareholders of the Company, shall be borne by the Company. Amendment and Waiver Any provision of the Stock Purchase Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by BlueCoral and the Company, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under the Stock Purchase Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. ITEM 3. PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE SELECTION OF HEIN + ASSOCIATES LLP AS THE COMPANY'S CERTIFIED INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS The Board of Directors and its Audit Committee recommends that the shareholders vote in favor of ratifying the selection of the certified public accounting firm of HEIN + Associates LLP of Denver, Colorado as the auditors who will continue to audit financial statements, review tax returns, and perform other accounting and consulting services for the year ending December 31, 2006 or until the Board of Directors, in its discretion, replaces them. HEIN + Associates LLP also audited our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. An affirmative vote of the majority of shares represented at the meeting is necessary to ratify the selection of auditors. There is no legal requirement for submitting this proposal to the shareholders; however, the Board of Directors believes it is of sufficient importance to seek ratification. Whether the proposal is ratified or defeated, the Board of Directors may reconsider, at their discretion, its selection of HEIN + Associates LLP. It is expected that one or more representatives of HEIN + Associates LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting and will be given an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders. Audit Fees The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed to us by HEIN + Associates LLP for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005: 2005 2004 2003 ---- ---- ---- Audit fees $110,000(1) $99,000(1) $90,000(1) Audit-related fees 0(2) 0(2) 0(2) Tax fee 10,000(3) 9,000(3) 12,000(3) All other fees 0 0 0 Total audit and non-audit fees $120,000 $108,000 $102,000 35 --------------------- (l) Includes fees for professional services rendered for the audit of ARC's annual financial statements and review of ARC's annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003 and for reviews of the financial statements included in ARC's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the first three quarters of fiscal 2005, 2004 and 2003. (2) Includes fees billed for professional services rendered in fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003, in connection with acquisition planning and due diligence. (3) Includes fees billed for professional services rendered in fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003 in connection with tax compliance (including U.S. federal and state returns) and tax consulting. Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees During fiscal year 2005, the aggregate fees billed for the professional services described in paragraph (c)(4)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X rendered by HEIN + Associates LLP for fiscal year 2004 totaled $0. All Other Fees During fiscal year 2005, all other fees billed for services rendered by HEIN + Associates LLP (other than the services described above) totaled $0. The Audit Committee's pre-approved policy requires that all services that the Company's independent auditor may provide to the Company, including audit services, must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. In the event that an audit or non-audit service requires approval prior to the next scheduled meeting of the Audit Committee, the auditor must contact the Chairman of the Audit Committee to obtain such approval. The approval must be reported to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of the services covered in this section is compatible with maintaining HEIN + Associates LLP's independence and believes that it is. Recommendation of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the ratification of the selection of HEIN + Associates LLP as our certified independent accountants for the year ending December 31, 2006. ITEM 4. THE AUTHORIZATION OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT The Board of Directors has unanimously approved and proposed for shareholder approval a reverse stock split in a range from 1 for 20 to 1 for 50. We believe that the reverse stock split may be beneficial to us due to the large number of shares that are outstanding. We believe that the low trading prices of 36 the Common Stock may impair efficiency of the market for the Common Stock and that brokerage commissions on the purchase or sale of a relatively lower priced stock generally tend to represent a higher percentage of the sales price that the commission on a relatively higher priced stock. We believe that the reverse stock split will improve these factors and may inure to the benefit of our shareholders, the Company and the market for the Common Stock. At the Annual Meeting held on November 9, 2004, the shareholders of the Company approved a proposed recommendation to authorize the Board of Directors to determine whether to effect a reverse stock split on or before December 31, 2005. The Board of Directors subsequently approved the implementation of a reverse stock split in a range between one-for-twenty and one-for-fifty upon approval of the listing of the Company's stock on a stock exchange. The Company did file for listing on the American Stock Exchange, and its application was put on hold because of the possibility of the sale of Winncom. Regardless of the outcome of the vote by the shareholders of the sale of Winncom, the Company will determine whether to proceed with the application to the American Stock Exchange or to apply for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. If this Item 4 is approved, the Board of Directors shall have the ability, at any time prior to December 31, 2008, to set the effective time for the reverse split. If the reverse stock split were effected, we would have fewer shares outstanding. A reduction in the number of shares would increase the book value per share as well as the earnings (or loss) per share. These increases could make the Common Stock more attractive to larger brokerage houses, thereby possibly expanding the group of brokers interested in making a market for the Common Stock. Nevertheless, we cannot predict what effect the reverse stock split would have on the market price of the Common Stock. If the reverse stock split is approved by the shareholders, the effective time for the reverse stock split, if at all, will be as determined by our Board of Directors, and must be prior to December 31, 2008. If our Board of Directors so determines, between each 20 shares and 50 shares of Common Stock at the effective time shall be deemed to be one share of Common Stock without further action by our shareholders. It will not be necessary for a shareholder to exchange certificates representing stock issued prior to the reverse stock split for certificates representing shares resulting after the reverse stock split. If the reverse stock split is effected, we will not issue certificates for fractional shares. Instead, persons who are shareholders at the effective time of the reverse stock split and who otherwise would be entitled to a fractional share would be issued cash in lieu of fractional shares. All shares of Common Stock held by a record holder will be aggregated for purposes of computing the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the reverse stock split. We have not sought and do not intend to seek an opinion of counsel or a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the federal income tax consequences of the reverse stock split. Based on consultation with counsel, we believe that a shareholder who does not receive cash in connection with the reverse stock split would not recognize any gain or loss on the exchange and we would not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the reverse stock split. 37 An affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding shares is required to approve the reverse stock split. Recommendation of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the shareholders vote FOR the authorization of the Board of Directors to determine to effect a reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock. ITEM 5: OTHER BUSINESS The Board of Directors of the Company is not aware of any other matters that are to be presented at the Annual Meeting, and it has not been advised that any other person will present any other matters for consideration at the meeting. Nevertheless, if other matters should properly come before the Annual Meeting, the shareholders present, or the persons, if any, authorized by a valid proxy to vote on their behalf, shall vote on such matters in accordance with their judgment. RESOLUTIONS PROPOSED BY INDIVIDUAL SHAREHOLDERS; DISCRETIONARY AUTHORITY TO VOTE PROXIES In order to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement and form of proxy relating to our next annual meeting of shareholders following the end of our 2006 fiscal year, proposals by individual shareholders must be received by us no later than May 26, 2007. In addition, the proxy solicited by the Board of Directors for the next annual meeting of shareholders will confer discretionary authority on any shareholder proposal presented at that meeting unless we are provided with notice of that proposal no later than August 18, 2007.

Audit Committee Charter Purpose The purpose of the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors (the "Board") is to oversee the processes of accounting and financial reporting of ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") and the audits and financial statements of the Company. Committee Structure The Committee shall consist of at least two directors. Each member of the Committee shall meet the independence requirements of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Board may, at any time and in its complete discretion, replace a Committee member. Meetings The Committee shall meet as often as necessary. The Committee shall meet periodically in separate, private sessions with management and the independent auditor to discuss anything the Committee or these groups believe should be discussed. The Committee may require any Company officer or employee or the Company's outside counsel or external auditor to attend a Committee meeting or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Committee, and to provide pertinent information as necessary. The Committee shall maintain minutes and other relevant documentation of all its meetings. Committee Authority and Responsibilities The Committee shall directly appoint, retain and compensate the Company's independent auditor, subject to shareholder approval. The Committee has the sole authority to approve all audit engagement fees and terms, as well as all significant non-audit engagements with the independent auditor. The Committee shall be directly responsible for overseeing the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work, and the independent auditor shall report directly to the Committee. The Committee shall preapprove all auditing and non-auditing services of the independent auditor, subject to de minimus exceptions for other than audit, review or attest services that are approved by the Committee prior to completion of the audit. Alternatively, the engagement of the independent auditor may be entered into pursuant to pre-approved policies and procedures established by the Committee, provided that the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular services and the Committee is informed of each service. The Committee shall have the authority to engage, without the approval of the Board, independent legal, accounting and other advisors as it deems necessary to carry out its duties. The Company shall provide appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, to compensate the independent auditor, outside legal counsel or any other advisors employed by the Committee, and to pay ordinary Committee administrative expenses that are necessary and appropriate in carrying out its duties. The Committee shall report regularly to the full Board, including regarding the performance of the Company's internal audit function. The Committee shall annually evaluate its own effectiveness. The Committee shall review and reassess the adequacy of this Charter on an annual basis and submit proposed changes to the Board for approval. The Committee has the powers and responsibilities delineated in this Charter. It is not, however, the Committee's responsibility to prepare and certify the Company's financial statements, to guaranty the independent auditor's report or to guaranty other disclosures by the Company. These are the fundamental responsibilities of management and the independent auditor. Committee members are not full-time Company employees and are not performing the functions of auditors or accountants. Oversight of Company's Independent Auditor The Committee shall assure the regular rotation of the lead audit partner as required by Section 10A(j) of the Exchange Act. The Committee shall set clear hiring policies for employees or former employees of the independent auditor that are consistent with Section 10A(l) of the Exchange Act. The Committee shall review with the national office of the independent auditor any audit problems or difficulties and management's response. Disclosure and Financial Statements The Committee shall review and discuss with management and the independent auditor: (1) major issues regarding accounting principles and financial statement presentations, including significant changes in the Company's selection or application of accounting principles, and major issues as to the adequacy of the Company's internal controls and any special audit steps adopted in light of material control deficiencies; (2) analyses prepared by management and/or the independent auditor setting forth significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of the financial statements, including analyses of the effects of alternative GAAP methods on the financial statements; and (3) the effect of regulatory and accounting initiatives, as well as off-balance sheet structures, on the Company's financial statements. Discuss with management the type and presentation of information to be included in the Company's earnings press releases (paying particular attention to any use of "pro forma" or "adjusted" non-GAAP, information), as well as financial information and earnings guidance provided to analysts and rating agencies. The discussion may be done generally (i.e., discussion of the types of information to be disclosed and the type of presentation to be made). The Committee shall obtain, review and discuss reports from the independent auditor regarding: (1) all critical accounting policies and practices to be used; (2) all alternative treatments of financial information within generally accepted accounting principles that have been discussed with management officials of the Company, ramifications of the use of these alternative disclosures and treatments, and the treatment preferred by the independent auditor and the reasons for favoring that treatment; and (3) other material written communications between the independent auditor and Company management, such as any management letter or schedule of unadjusted differences. The Committee shall discuss with the independent auditor and then disclose the matters required to be discussed and disclosed by SAS 61, including any difficulties the independent auditor encountered in the course of the audit work, any restrictions on the scope of the independent auditor's activities or on access to requested information, and any significant disagreements with management. 2 The Committee shall review the CEO and CFO's disclosure and certifications under Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Compliance and Regulatory Oversight Responsibilities The Committee shall establish procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Company from its employees regarding accounting, internal accounting controls and auditing matters, and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. The Committee shall ascertain annually from the independent auditor whether the Company has issues under Section 10A(b) of the Exchange Act. The Committee shall review with management and the independent auditor any correspondence with regulators and any published reports that raise material issues regarding the Company's accounting policies. 3 Annex B STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT By and Among BLUECORAL LIMITED, WINNCOM TECHNOLOGIES CORP. and ARC WIRELESS SOLUTIONS, INC.
