EXIGENT INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Exigent International, Inc. ("XGNT") is a holding company focused on the development of innovative software products, specializing in satellite command and control systems. XGNT's flagship OS/COMET family of software products now commands and controls the two largest satellite constellations in the world: the IRIDIUM constellation of 66 Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites (plus 6 on-orbit spares), and the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) constellation of 24 satellites, a US Air Force project. The commercial satellite industry is forecasted to grow from an estimated $45 billion in 1998 to approximately $100 billion in five years (governmental business adds to these levels), and industry sources anticipate in excess of 500 satellite missions pending through the year 2003. While satellite command and control systems represent only a small fraction of the total market (approximately $400 million in 1998), growth in the market for commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) systems in which XGNT specializes should exceed overall market growth rates. XGNT has three operating subsidiaries: Software Technology, Inc. (STI), the main operating business, FotoTag, Inc. and Middleware Solutions, Inc. (two subsidiaries applying core STI technologies to the public transportation and Internet industries).
