Harbor Statement Statements in this release that are forward

ability to achieve positive cash flow given the Company's existing

trends; the need to raise additional equity capital, and whether
that capital is available on acceptable terms, if at all; the
Company's ability to negotiate repayment terms with many of its
creditors, and settle outstanding litigation; the continued intense
competition from leading telecommunications equipment and
technology suppliers resulting in lower average selling prices;
fluctuations in customer demand; reliance upon subcontractors; the
ability of P-Com's customers to finance their purchases; the timing
of new technology and product introductions; and the risk of early
obsolescence. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond
P-Com's control. Reference is made to the discussion of risk
