In addition, UTStarcom's management team, which includes executive officers and senior executives of the Company, will purchase up to $0.5 million of the UTStarcom's outstanding stock using personal funds over the next 12 months.

Mr. Jack Lu, UTStarcom's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our board of directors approved this share repurchase program to demonstrate our continued commitment to enhance shareholder value and our confidence in the achievement of our long-term growth. Our strong cash position gives us the flexibility both to continue our growth strategy and to buy our shares through the stock repurchase plan."

The repurchases will be made at management's discretion, subject to restrictions on price, volume, and timing. The timing and extent of any purchases will depend upon market conditions, the trading price of its shares, and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate UTStarcom to make repurchases at any specific time or situation.

UTStarcom's board of directors will periodically review the share repurchase program and may authorize adjustments to the program's terms and size. The board may also suspend or discontinue the repurchase program at any time.

UTStarcom expects to pay for the repurchased shares using internally available cash. As of June 30, 2011, UTStarcom's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment totaled $316.4 million.

UTStarcom had 156.2 million common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2011.
