                                   AWARE, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

A)      BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet, statements of
        operations, and statements of cash flows reflect all adjustments
        (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of
        management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position at
        June 30, 2007, and of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
        ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. Certain reclassifications have been made
        to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year
        presentation.

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
        prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore
        do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete
        presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash
        flows, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We
        filed audited financial statements which included all information and
        footnotes necessary for such presentation for the three years ended
        December 31, 2006 in conjunction with our 2006 Annual Report on Form
        10-K.

        The results of operations for the interim period ended June 30, 2007 are
        not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

B)      INVENTORY

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being
        determined by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. Inventory
        reserves are established for estimated excess and obsolete inventory.

C)      COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

        Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by
        the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted
        earnings per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the
        weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus additional
        common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential
        common shares had been issued. For the purposes of this calculation,
        stock options are considered common stock equivalents in periods in
        which they have a dilutive effect. Stock options that are anti-dilutive
        are excluded from the calculation.

                                       6



         Net income or loss per share is calculated as follows (in thousands,
except per share data):

        For the three month period ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 potential common
        stock equivalents of 1,546,096 and 1,645,384, respectively, were not
        included in the per share calculation for diluted EPS, because we had a
        net loss and the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For
        the six month period ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 potential common stock
        equivalents of 1,517,117 and 1,600,805, respectively, were not included
        in the per share calculation for diluted EPS, because we had net losses
        and the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three
        month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, options to purchase
        2,285,575 and 2,271,427 shares of common stock, respectively, were
        outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS
        because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average
        market price of the common stock and thus would be anti-dilutive. For
        the six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, options to purchase
        2,399,575 and 2,346,427 shares of common stock, respectively, were
        outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS
        because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average
        market price of the common stock and thus would be anti-dilutive.

        The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the
        Black-Scholes valuation model. This valuation model takes into account
        the exercise price of the award, as well as a variety of significant
        assumptions. These assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock
        options include the expected term, the expected volatility of the
        Company's stock over the expected term, the risk-free interest rate over
        the expected term, and the Company's expected annual dividend yield. The
        Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized
        to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the
        fair values of the Company's stock options granted in the six months
        ended June 30, 2007. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict
        actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who
        receive equity awards.


E)      BUSINESS SEGMENTS

        The Company organizes itself as one segment and conducts its operations
        in the United States.

        The Company sells its products and technology to domestic and
        international customers. Revenues were generated from the following
        geographic regions (in thousands):

F)      INCOME TAXES

        We adopted the provisions of Financial Standards Accounting Board
        Interpretation No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN
        48") an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 ("SFAS 109") on January
        1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, we recognized no
        material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax
        benefits. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007 and also at June 30,
        2007, we had no unrecognized tax benefits.

        We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions
        in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2007, we had no accrued interest
        or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

        The tax years 2003 through 2006 remain open to examination by the major
        taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject.

        As of December 31, 2006, we had federal net operating loss and research
        and experimentation credit carryforwards of approximately $49.9 million
        and $11.4 million respectively, which may be available to offset future
        federal income tax liabilities and expire at various dates from 2007
        through 2026. In addition, at December 31, 2006, we had approximately
        $8.3 million and $5.8 million of state net operating losses and state

                                       8



        research and development and investment tax carryforwards, respectively,
        which expire at various dates from 2007 through 2021.

        Utilization of net operating loss and research and development credit
        carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to
        ownership change limitations that have occurred previously or that could
        occur in the future provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code
        of 1986, as well as similar state provisions. These ownership changes
        may limit the amount of net operating loss and research and development
        credit carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future
        taxable income and tax, respectively. The Company has not currently
        completed a study to assess whether a change of control has occurred.
        Until a study is completed and any limitation known, no amounts are
        being presented as an uncertain tax position under FIN 48.


G)      RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, "Fair Value
        Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). The Statement provides guidance for using
        fair value to measure assets and liabilities. This Statement references
        fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
        to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
        participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. The
        Statement applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or
        liabilities to be measured at fair value. The Statement does not expand
        the use of fair value in any new circumstances. It is effective for
        financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November
        15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of
        SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial
        position, results of operations or cash flows.

        In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
        Standards No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
        Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statements No.
        115" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose, at specified
        election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the "fair value
        option"). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on
        items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at
        each subsequent reporting period. This accounting standard is effective
        as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after
        November 15, 2007. The effect, if any, of adopting SFAS 159 on our
        financial position and results of operations has not been finalized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        PRODUCT SALES. Product sales consist of revenue from the sale of
hardware and software products. Hardware products include ADSL test and
development systems, modules, and modems. Software products consist of standard
off-the-shelf software products for biometric, medical imaging and digital
imaging applications, as well as DSL test and diagnostics software.

Product sales increased 148% from $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2006 to
$3.8 million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of total revenue,
product sales increased from 32% in the second quarter of 2006 to 58% in the
current year quarter. The dollar increase was primarily due to a $1.9 million
increase in revenue from the sale of hardware, and a $0.4 million increase in
the sale of software.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, product sales increased 124% from $3.2
million in 2006 to $7.2 million in 2007. As a percentage of total revenue,
product sales increased from 30% in the first six months of 2006 to 59% in the
corresponding period of 2007. The dollar increase was primarily due to a $3.1
million increase in revenue from the sale of hardware, and a $0.9 million
increase in revenue from the sale of software.

        CONTRACT REVENUE. Contract revenue consists of patent, license and
engineering service fees that we receive under agreements relating to Aware's
patents, Aware's DSL technology and Aware's DSL test and diagnostic technology.

Contract revenue decreased 30% from $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2006
to $1.6 million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of total revenue,
contract revenue decreased from 47% in the second quarter of 2006 to 25% in the
current year quarter. The dollar decrease was due to $0.5 million recognized
from the transfer of certain technology licenses as a result of the

                                       10



acquisition of a customer's business in the second quarter of 2006, of which
there was no similar transaction in the second quarter of 2007. In addition,
there was a decrease of $0.2 million associated with the delivery of licensed
technology and engineering services.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, contract revenue decreased 43% from $5.9
million in 2006 to $3.4 million in 2007. As a percentage of total revenue,
contract revenue decreased from 54% in the first six months of 2006 to 28% in
the corresponding period of 2007. The dollar decrease was primarily due to $2.5
million recognized from the transfer of certain technology licenses as a result
of the acquisition of a customer's business in the first six months of 2006, of
which there was no similar transaction in the first six months of 2007.

While we believe that the transition to ADSL2+ and VDSL2 technology increases
the value proposition of our technology, some existing and prospective DSL
chipset licensees have continued to be reluctant to begin new development
projects given a difficult and uncertain environment in the semiconductor and
telecommunications industries, and intense ADSL chipset competition and falling
chipset prices. During the last several years, customers and potential customers
cautiously evaluated new chipset projects or delayed or cancelled projects in
the face of such conditions.

        ROYALTIES. Royalties consist of royalty payments that we receive under
licensing agreements. We receive royalties from customers for the right to use
our patents and technology in their chipsets or solutions.

Royalties increased 5% from $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2006 to $1.1
million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of total revenue, royalties
decreased from 21% in the second quarter of 2006 to 17% in the current year
quarter. The dollar increase in royalties was primarily due to a $0.1 million
net increase in DSL royalties as a result of increases in ADSL royalties offset
by decreases in VDSL royalties.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, royalties decreased 10% from $1.8
million in 2006 to $1.6 million in 2007. As a percentage of total revenue,
royalties decreased from 16% in the first six months of 2006 to 13% in the
corresponding period of 2007. The dollar decrease in royalties was due to a net
$34,000 decrease in DSL royalties, resulting from a decrease in VDSL royalties,
and a $137,000 decrease in biometrics and medical imaging royalties.

Our royalty revenue comes predominantly from ADSL chipset sales by Ikanos
Communications, Inc. ("Ikanos"), and Infineon Technologies AG ("Infineon").
Despite steady growth of worldwide ADSL subscribers over the last several years,
the availability of ADSL chipsets from a number of suppliers and intense
competition among those suppliers has caused chipset prices to steadily decline.
We are uncertain how the transition to ADSL2+ and VDSL2 will impact our
customers in the near term, how quickly sales of our customers' chipsets will
increase and whether such increases will contribute meaningful royalties to us.
We have experienced fluctuations from period to period in our VDSL2 royalties
due to the purchasing patterns for our customers' chipsets and cannot guarantee
this will be a meaningful revenue stream for us. Infineon recently announced its
intention to acquire Texas Instruments' DSL CPE product line. We are uncertain
how this acquisition may affect our future royalty revenues.

        COST OF PRODUCT SALES. Since the cost of software product sales is
minimal, cost of product sales consists primarily of the cost of hardware
product sales. Cost of product sales increased 858% from $0.2 million in the
second quarter of 2006 to $1.7 million in the current year quarter. As a
percentage of product sales, cost of product sales increased from 12% in the

                                       11



second quarter of 2006 to 45% in the current year quarter. The percentage and
dollar increases were primarily due to increases in cost of product sales
associated with new hardware products, which resulted in a lower product gross
margin as a percent of product sales. However, product gross margin dollars
increased primarily due to an increase in test and diagnostic hardware and
software sales, and to a lesser extent an increase in other software sales.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, cost of product sales increased 565%
from $0.3 million in 2006 to $2.2 million in 2007. As a percentage of product
sales, cost of product sales increased from 10% in the first six months of 2006
to 30% in the corresponding period of 2007. The percentage and dollar increases
were primarily due to increases in cost of product sales associated with new
hardware products, which resulted in a lower product gross margin as a percent
of product sales. However, product gross margin dollars increased primarily due
to an increase in test and diagnostic hardware and software sales, and to a
lesser extent an increase in other software sales.

        COST OF CONTRACT REVENUE. Cost of contract revenue consists primarily of
compensation costs for engineers and expenses for consultants, technology
licensing fees, recruiting, supplies, equipment, depreciation and facilities
associated with customer development projects. Our total engineering costs are
allocated between cost of contract revenue and research and development expense.
In a given period, the allocation of engineering costs between cost of contract
revenue and research and development is a function of the level of effort
expended on each.

Cost of contract revenue increased 23% from $1.2 million in the second quarter
of 2006 to $1.4 million in the current year quarter. Cost of contract revenue as
a percentage of contract revenue increased from 51% in the second quarter of
2006 to 90% in the current year quarter. The percentage and dollar increase in
cost of contract revenue was primarily due to higher compensation costs
principally related to an increase in the level of effort expended on our
customer projects during the current quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, cost of contract revenue increased 15%
from $2.4 million in the first six months of 2006 to $2.8 million in the
corresponding period of 2007. Cost of contract revenue as a percentage of
contract revenue increased from 40% in the first six months of 2006 to 81% in
the corresponding period of 2007. The percentage and dollar increase in cost of
contract revenue was primarily due to higher compensation costs principally
related to an increase in the level of effort expended on our customer projects
during the first six months of 2007.

        RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE. Research and development expense
consists primarily of compensation costs for engineers and expenses for
consultants, recruiting, supplies, equipment, depreciation and facilities
related to engineering projects to improve our broadband intellectual property
offerings, as well as our software and hardware product technology.

Research and development expenses decreased from $3.1 million in the second
quarter of 2006 to $2.9 million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of
total revenue, research and development expense decreased from 65% in the second
quarter of 2006 to 44% in the current year quarter. For the three month period,
the dollar decrease was mainly attributable to lower stock-based compensation
expense of $297,000 that was partially offset by higher salary and other
compensation costs of $51,000.

                                       12



Research and development expenses decreased from $5.9 million in the first six
months of 2006 to $5.7 million in the first six months of 2007. As a percentage
of total revenue, research and development expense decreased from 54% in the
first six months of 2006 to 46% in the corresponding period of 2007. For the six
month period, the dollar decrease was mainly attributable to lower stock-based
compensation expense of $361,000 and lower consulting and outside services fees
of $182,000 that was partially offset by higher salary and other compensation
costs of $75,000, higher professional services fees of $150,000 and higher
software maintenance fees of $31,000.

Our research and development spending was principally focused on improving our
ADSL, ADSL2 and ADSL2plus StratiPHY2+(TM) technology and chips, developing and
improving our VDSL2 StratiPHY3 technology and chips, developing bonded ADSL and
VDSL technology and chips, developing analog front-end technology for DSL
solutions, developing test and diagnostics hardware and software and developing
imaging and biometrics software.

        SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSE. Selling and marketing expense consists
primarily of compensation costs for sales and marketing personnel, travel,
advertising and promotion, recruiting, and facilities expense. Sales and
marketing expense increased 9% in the current quarter compared with the
corresponding quarter of 2006, and was $0.9 million in the second quarter of
2006 and $1.0 million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of total
revenue, sales and marketing expense decreased from 19% in the second quarter of
2006 to 15% in the current year quarter. For the three month period, the dollar
increase was mainly attributable to increases in salary and other compensation
costs of $124,000 and consulting fees of $40,000 that was partially offset by
lower stock-based compensation expense of $85,000.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, sales and marketing expenses increased
8%, from $1.7 million in 2006 to $1.9 million in 2007. As a percentage of total
revenue, sales and marketing expenses decreased from 16% in the first six months
of 2006 to 15% in the corresponding period of 2007. The dollar increase in sales
and marketing expenses was mainly attributable to increases in salary and other
compensation costs of $225,000 and consulting fees of $52,000 that was partially
offset by lower stock-based compensation expense of $132,000.

        GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. General and administrative expense
consists primarily of compensation costs for administrative personnel, facility
costs, bad debt, audit, legal, stock exchange and insurance expenses. General
and administrative expenses decreased 14% from $1.1 million in the second
quarter of 2006 to $0.9 million in the current year quarter. As a percentage of
total revenue, general and administrative expense decreased from 23% in the
second quarter of 2006 to 14% in the current year quarter. For the three month
period, the dollar decrease was mainly attributable to lower stock-based
compensation expense of $130,000 and investor relations expenses of $27,000.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, general and administrative expenses
decreased 13% from $2.1 million in 2006 to $1.8 million in 2007. As a percentage
of total revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased from 19% in the
first six months of 2006 to 15% in the corresponding period of 2007. The dollar
decrease was mainly attributable to lower stock-based compensation expense of
$252,000 and recruiting fees of $65,000.

        INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased 10% from $459,000 in the
second quarter of 2006 to $503,000 in the current year quarter. For the six
months ended June 30, 2007, interest

                                       13



income increased 18%, from $852,000 in 2006 to $1,008,000 in 2007. For the three
and six month periods, the dollar increase was primarily due to higher interest
rates earned on our cash and investment balances.

        INCOME TAXES. We made no provision for income taxes in the first six
months of 2006 and 2007 due to net losses incurred and the uncertainty of the
timing of profitability in future periods, except for $17,000 of state excise
tax paid in both 2006 and 2007. In 2002, we determined that due to our
continuing operating losses as well as the uncertainty of the timing of
profitability in future periods, we should fully reserve our deferred tax
assets. As of June 30, 2007, our deferred tax assets continue to be fully
reserved. We will continue to evaluate, on a quarterly basis, the positive and
negative evidence affecting the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

We adopted the provisions of Financial Standards Accounting Board Interpretation
No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN 48") an interpretation
of FASB Statement No. 109 ("SFAS 109") on January 1, 2007. As a result of the
implementation of FIN 48, we recognized no material adjustment in the liability
for unrecognized income tax benefits. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007
and also at June 30, 2007, we had no unrecognized tax benefits.

We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income
tax expense. As of June 30, 2007, we had no accrued interest or penalties
related to uncertain tax positions.

The tax years 2003 through 2006 remain open to examination by the major taxing
jurisdictions to which we are subject.

As of December 31, 2006, we had federal net operating loss and research and
experimentation credit carryforwards of approximately $49.9 million and $11.4
million respectively, which may be available to offset future federal income tax
liabilities and expire at various dates from 2007 through 2026. In addition, at
December 31, 2006, we had approximately $8.3 million and $5.8 million of state
net operating losses and state research and development and investment tax
carryforwards, respectively, which expire at various dates from 2007 through
2021.

Utilization of net operating loss and research and development credit
carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to ownership
change limitations that have occurred previously or that could occur in the
future provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as well as
similar state provisions. These ownership changes may limit the amount of net
operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards that can be
utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax, respectively. The
Company has not currently completed a study to assess whether a change of
control has occurred. Until a study is completed and any limitation known, no
amounts are being presented as an uncertain tax position under FIN 48.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2007, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of
$39.2 million, which represents a decrease of $0.6 million from December 31,
2006. The decrease was primarily due to $0.6 million of cash used in operations
and $0.3 million of capital expenditures. The decrease was partially offset by
$0.3 million of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options.

                                       14



Cash used in operations in the first six months of 2007 was from the net loss of
$1.1 million adjusted for non-cash items related to depreciation and
amortization of $0.4 million, and stock based compensation expense of $0.5
million and working capital requirements of $0.4 million. Capital spending was
primarily related to the purchase of computer hardware and software, and
laboratory equipment used principally in engineering activities.

While we can not assure you that we will not require additional financing, or
that such financing will be available to us, we believe that our cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to fund our operations
for at least the next twelve months.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements"
("SFAS 157"). The Statement provides guidance for using fair value to measure
assets and liabilities. This Statement references fair value as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting
entity transacts. The Statement applies whenever other standards require (or
permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The Statement does
not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. It is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of SFAS 157 is not
expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,
including an amendment of FASB Statements No. 115" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159
permits entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible
items at fair value (the "fair value option"). A business entity shall report
unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been
elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting period. This accounting
standard is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. The effect, if any, of adopting SFAS 159 on our
financial position and results of operations has not been finalized.

           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our investment portfolio, and
the effect that changes in interest rates would have on that portfolio. Our
investment portfolio has included:

        o       Cash and cash equivalents, which consist of financial
                instruments with original maturities of three months or less;
                and
        o       Investments, which consist of financial instruments that meet
                the high quality standards specified in our investment policy.
                This policy dictates that all instruments mature in three years
                or less, and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one
                issue, issuer, and type of instrument.

We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading
purposes. As of June 30, 2007, we had $39.2 million in cash, cash equivalents
and short-term investments that matured in twelve months or less. Due to the
short duration of these financial instruments, we do not

                                       15



expect that an increase in interest rates would result in any material loss to
our investment portfolio.

                                     ITEM 4:
                             CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial
officer, has evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of
the quarterly period covered by this Form 10-Q and has concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective. They also concluded that there
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the quarterly period covered by this Form 10-Q that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.

                                LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our
business. We are not party to any lawsuit or proceeding that, in our opinion, is
likely to seriously harm our business.

                                    ITEM 1A:
                                  RISK FACTORS

RISK FACTORS

OUR QUARTERLY RESULTS ARE UNPREDICTABLE AND MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY

Our quarterly revenue and operating results are difficult to predict and may
fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter. Because our revenue components
fluctuate and are difficult to predict, it is difficult for us to accurately
forecast revenues and profitability. When appropriate, we recognize contract
revenues ratably over the period during which we expect to deliver technology
and provide engineering services. While this means that contract revenues from
certain current agreements are generally predictable, changes can be introduced
by a reevaluation of the length of the development period, or by the termination
of a contract. The initial estimate of this period is subject to revision as the
product being developed under a contract nears completion, and a revision may
result in an increase or decrease to the quarterly revenue for that contract. In
addition, accurate prediction of revenues from new contracts or licensees is
difficult because contract negotiation is a lengthy process, frequently spanning
a year or more, and the fiscal period in which a new license agreement will be
entered into, if at all, and the financial terms of such an agreement are
difficult to predict. Contract revenues also include fees for engineering
services, which are dependent upon the varying level of assistance desired by
licensees and, therefore, the revenue from these services is also difficult to
predict.

It is also difficult for us to make accurate forecasts of royalty revenues.
Royalties are recognized in the quarter in which we receive a report from a
licensee regarding the shipment of licensed integrated circuits in the prior
quarter, and are dependent upon fluctuating sales volumes and/or prices of chips
containing our technology, all of which are beyond our ability to control or
assess in advance.

                                       16



It is also difficult for us to make accurate forecasts of product revenues.
Product revenues consist of sales of test and diagnostics hardware as well as
biometrics, medical imaging and test and diagnostics software. Sales of hardware
and software products fluctuate based upon demand by our customers which is
difficult to predict. Since our product revenues include the sales of hardware
products which typically have lower gross margins than our other sources of
revenue, profitability is difficult to predict.

Our business is subject to a variety of additional risks, which could materially
adversely affect quarterly and annual operating results, including:

        o       market acceptance of broadband technologies we supply by
                semiconductor or equipment companies;
        o       the extent and timing of new license transactions with
                semiconductor companies;
        o       changes in our and our licensees' development schedules and
                levels of expenditure on research and development;
        o       the loss of a strategic relationship or termination of a project
                by a licensee;
        o       equipment companies' acceptance of integrated circuits produced
                by our licensees;
        o       the loss by a licensee of a strategic relationship with an
                equipment company customer;
        o       announcements or introductions of new technologies or products
                by us or our competitors;
        o       delays or problems in the introduction or performance of
                enhancements or of future generations of our technology;
        o       failures or problems in our hardware or software products;
        o       price pressure in the biometrics or test and diagnostics markets
                from our competitors;
        o       delays in the adoption of new industry standards or changes in
                market perception of the value of new or existing standards;
        o       competitive pressures resulting in lower contract revenues or
                royalty rates;
        o       competitive pressures resulting in lower software or hardware
                product revenues;
        o       personnel changes, particularly those involving engineering and
                technical personnel;
        o       costs associated with protecting our intellectual property;
        o       the potential that licensees could fail to make payments under
                their current contracts;
        o       ADSL market-related issues, including lower ADSL chipset unit
                demand brought on by excess channel inventory and lower average
                selling prices for ADSL chipsets as a result of market
                surpluses;
        o       VDSL market-related issues, including lower VDSL chipset unit
                demand brought on by excess channel inventory and lower average
                selling prices for VDSL chipsets as a result of market
                surpluses;
        o       hardware manufacturing issues, including yield problems in our
                hardware platforms, and inventory buildup and obsolescence;
        o       product gross margin may be affected by various factors
                including, but not limited to, product mix, product life cycle,
                and provision for excess and obsolete inventory.;
        o       significant fluctuations in demand for our hardware products;
        o       regulatory developments; and
        o       general economic trends and other factors.

As a result of these factors, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of
our revenue levels and operating results are not necessarily meaningful. You
should not rely on our quarterly revenue and operating results to predict our
future performance.

                                       17


WE EXPERIENCED NET LOSSES

We had a net annual loss during 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 and the first
six months of 2007. We may experience losses in the future if:

        o       the semiconductor and telecommunications markets decline;
        o       our existing customers do not increase their revenues from sales
                of chipsets with our technology;
        o       new or existing customers do not choose to license our
                intellectual property for new chipset products; or
        o       new or existing customers do not choose to use our software or
                hardware products.


WE HAVE A UNIQUE BUSINESS MODEL

The success of our DSL licensing products depends upon our ability to license
our technology to semiconductor and equipment companies, and our customers'
willingness and ability to sell products that incorporate our technology so that
we may receive significant royalties that are consistent with our plans and
expectations.

We face numerous risks in successfully obtaining suitable licensees on terms
consistent with our business model, including, among others:

        o       we must typically undergo a lengthy and expensive process of
                building a relationship with a potential licensee before there
                is any assurance of a license agreement with such party;
        o       we must persuade semiconductor and equipment manufacturers with
                significant resources to rely on us for critical technology on
                an ongoing basis rather than trying to develop similar
                technology internally;
        o       we must persuade potential licensees to bear development costs
                associated with our technology applications and to make the
                necessary investment to successfully manufacture chipsets and
                products using our technology; and
        o       we must successfully transfer technical know-how to licensees.

Moreover, the success of our business model also depends on the receipt of
royalties from licensees. Royalties from our licensees are often based on the
selling prices of our licensees' chipsets and products, over which we have
little or no control. We also have little or no control over our licensees'
promotional and marketing efforts. They are not prohibited from competing
against us.

Our business could be seriously harmed if:

        o       we cannot obtain suitable licensees;
        o       our licensees fail to achieve significant sales of chipsets or
                products incorporating our technology; or
        o       we otherwise fail to implement our business strategy

THERE HAS BEEN AND MAY CONTINUE TO BE A CYCLICAL DEMAND FOR DSL CHIPSETS, AND
THERE IS INTENSE COMPETITION FOR DSL CHIPSETS, WHICH HAS CAUSED OUR ROYALTY
REVENUE TO DECLINE

The royalties we receive are influenced by many of the risks faced by the DSL
market in general, including cyclical demand which may result in reduced average
selling prices ("ASPs") for DSL chipsets during periods of surplus. In the past,
the DSL industry has experienced an oversupply of DSL chipsets, central office
or customer premises equipment. Excessive inventory levels led to soft chipset
demand, which in turn led to declining ASPs. ASPs have also been under pressure
because of intense competition in the DSL chipset marketplace. As a result of
the soft demand and declining ASPs for ADSL chipsets, our royalty revenue has
decreased substantially from the levels we achieved in 2000. Price decreases for
ADSL or VDSL chipsets, and the corresponding decreases in per unit royalties
received by us, can be sudden and dramatic. Pricing pressures may continue
during the third quarter of 2007 and beyond. Our royalty revenue may decline
over the long term.


WE DEPEND SUBSTANTIALLY UPON A LIMITED NUMBER OF LICENSEES

There are a relatively limited number of semiconductor and equipment companies
to which we can license our broadband technology in a manner consistent with our
business model. If we fail to maintain relationships with our current licensees
or fail to establish a sufficient number of new licensing relationships, our
business could be seriously harmed. In addition, our prospective customers may
use their superior size and bargaining power to demand license terms that are
unfavorable to us and prospective customers may not elect to license from us.


WE DERIVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF REVENUE FROM A SMALL NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS

In 2004, 2005 and 2006, we derived 28%, 20% and 20%, respectively, of our total
revenue from ADI and 28%, 30%, and 26% respectively, of our total revenue from
Infineon. ADI and Infineon have developed many generations of ADSL chipsets
based upon our technology. On February 17, 2006 ADI sold its ADSL business
relating to Aware technology to Ikanos Communications, Inc. ("Ikanos") and
Ikanos replaced ADI as an Aware licensee. Our royalty revenue in the near term
is highly dependent upon the respective market share and pricing of Ikanos' and
Infineon's ADSL chipsets. The ADSL market has experienced significant price
erosion, which has adversely affected ADSL chipset revenues, which in turn has
adversely affected our royalty revenue. To the extent that Ikanos loses ADSL2+
market share or Infineon loses market share, is unable to gain market share, is
unable to transition its product to support new ADSL2, ADSL2+ and VDSL2
standards, or experiences further price erosion in its DSL chipsets, our royalty
revenue could decline.


OUR SUCCESS REQUIRES ACCEPTANCE OF OUR TECHNOLOGY BY EQUIPMENT COMPANIES

Due to our business strategy, our success is dependent on our ability to
generate significant royalties from our licensing arrangements with
semiconductor manufacturers. Our ability to generate significant royalties is
materially affected by the willingness of equipment companies to purchase
integrated circuits that incorporate our technology from our licensees. There
are other competitive solutions available for equipment companies seeking to
offer broadband communications products. We face the risk that equipment
manufacturers will choose those

                                       19



alternative solutions. Generally, our ability to influence equipment companies'
decisions whether to purchase integrated circuits that incorporate our
technology is limited.

We also face the risk that equipment companies that elect to use integrated
circuits that incorporate our technology into their products will not compete
successfully against other equipment companies. Many factors beyond our control
could influence the success or failure of a particular equipment company that
uses integrated circuits based on our technology, including:

        o       competition from other businesses in the same industry;
        o       market acceptance of its products;
        o       its engineering, sales and marketing, and management
                capabilities;
        o       technical challenges of developing its products unrelated to our
                technology; and
        o       its financial and other resources.

Even if equipment companies incorporate chipsets based on our intellectual
property into their products, their products may not achieve commercial
acceptance or result in significant royalties to us.


OUR SUCCESS REQUIRES TELEPHONE COMPANIES TO INSTALL DSL SERVICE IN VOLUME

The success of our DSL licensing business depends upon telephone companies
installing DSL service in significant volumes. Factors that affect the volume
deployment of DSL service include:

        o       the desire of telephone companies to install ADSL or VDSL
                service, which is dependent on the development of a viable
                business model for ADSL or VDSL service, including the
                capability to market, sell, install and maintain the service;
        o       the pricing of ADSL or VDSL services by telephone companies;
        o       the success of internet protocol TV ("IPTV") or video-based
                services as viable consumer service offerings;
        o       the transition by telephone companies to new ADSL technologies,
                such as ADSL2, ADSL2+ and VDSL2;
        o       the quality of telephone companies' networks;
        o       deployment by phone companies of fiber-to-the-home or broadband
                wireless services;
        o       government regulations; and
        o       the willingness of residential telephone customers to demand DSL
                service in the face of competitive service offerings, such as
                cable modems, fiber-based service or broadband wireless access.

If telephone companies do not install DSL service in significant volumes, or if
telephone companies install broadband service based on other technology such as
cable or fiber-to-the-home, our business will be seriously harmed.


OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IS SUBJECT TO LIMITED PROTECTION

Because we are a technology provider, our ability to protect our intellectual
property and to operate without infringing the intellectual property rights of
others is critical to our success. We regard our technology as proprietary, and
we have approximately 48 U.S. patents and 105 foreign patents and a number of
pending patent applications. We also rely on a combination of trade secrets,
copyright and trademark law and non-disclosure agreements to protect our
unpatented

                                       20



intellectual property. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third
party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology without authorization.

As part of our licensing arrangements, we typically work closely with our
semiconductor and equipment manufacturer licensees, many of whom are also our
potential competitors, and provide them with proprietary know-how necessary for
their development of customized chipsets based on our ADSL technology. Although
our license agreements contain non-disclosure provisions and other terms
protecting our proprietary know-how and technology rights, it is possible that,
despite these precautions, some of our licensees might obtain from us
proprietary information that they could use to compete with us in the
marketplace. Although we intend to defend our intellectual property as
necessary, the steps we have taken may be inadequate to prevent
misappropriation.

In the future, we may choose to bring legal action to enforce our intellectual
property rights. Any such litigation could be costly and time-consuming for us,
even if we were to prevail. Moreover, even if we are successful in protecting
our proprietary information, our competitors may independently develop
technologies substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. The
misappropriation of our technology or the development of competitive technology
could seriously harm our business.

Our technology, software or products may infringe the intellectual property
rights of others. A large and increasing number of participants in the
telecommunications and compression industries have applied for or obtained
patents. Some of these patent holders have demonstrated a readiness to commence
litigation based on allegations of patent and other intellectual property
infringement. Third parties may assert patent, copyright and other intellectual
property rights to technologies that are important to our business. In the past,
we have received claims from other companies that our technology infringes their
patent rights. Intellectual property rights can be uncertain and can involve
complex legal and factual questions. We may infringe the proprietary rights of
others, which could result in significant liability for us. If we were found to
have infringed any third party's patents, we could be subject to substantial
damages and an injunction preventing us from conducting our business.


OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE

The semiconductor and telecommunications industries for high-speed network
access technologies, are characterized by rapid technological change, with new
generations of products being introduced regularly and with ongoing evolutionary
improvements. We expect to depend on our DSL technology for a substantial
portion of our revenue for the foreseeable future. Therefore, we face risks that
others could introduce competing technology that renders our DSL technology less
desirable or obsolete. Also, the announcement of new technologies could cause
our licensees or their customers to delay or defer entering into arrangements
for the use of our existing technology. Either of these events could seriously
harm our business. The biometrics industry is also subject to rapid
technological change and uncertainty.

We expect that our business will depend to a significant extent on our ability
to introduce enhancements and new generations of our DSL and biometrics
technology and products as well as new technologies and products that keep pace
with changes in the telecommunications and broadband industries and that achieve
rapid market acceptance. It is expected that the International Telecommunication
Union will be issuing a new standard for VDSL in the fall of 2008. We must
continually devote significant engineering resources to achieving technical
innovations and product developments. These developments are complex and require
long

                                       21



development cycles. Moreover, we may have to make substantial investments in
technological innovations and product developments before we can determine their
commercial viability. We may lack sufficient financial resources to fund future
development. Also, our licensees may decide not to share certain research and
development costs with us. Revenue from technological innovations, even if
successfully developed, may not be sufficient to recoup the costs of
development.

One element of our business strategy is to assume the risks of technology
development failure while reducing such risks for our licensees and OEM
customers. In the past, we have spent significant amounts on development
projects that did not produce any marketable technologies or products, and we
cannot assure you that it will not occur again.


WE FACE INTENSE COMPETITION FROM A WIDE RANGE OF COMPETITORS

Our success as an intellectual property supplier depends on the willingness and
ability of semiconductor manufacturers to design, build and sell integrated
circuits based on our intellectual property. The semiconductor industry is
intensely competitive and has been characterized by price erosion, rapid
technological change, short product life cycles, cyclical market patterns and
increasing foreign and domestic competition.

As an intellectual property supplier to the semiconductor industry, we face
intense competition from internal development teams within potential
semiconductor customers. We must convince potential licensees to license from us
rather than develop technology internally. Furthermore, semiconductor customers,
who have licensed our intellectual property, may choose to abandon joint
development projects with us and develop chipsets themselves without using our
technology. In addition to competition from internal development teams, we
compete against other independent suppliers of intellectual property. We
anticipate intense competition from suppliers of intellectual property for ADSL.

The market for DSL chipsets is also intensely competitive. Our success within
the DSL industry requires that DSL equipment manufacturers buy chipsets from our
semiconductor licensees, and that telephone companies buy DSL equipment from
those equipment manufacturers. Our customers' chipsets compete with products
from other vendors of standards-based and DSL chipsets, including Broadcom,
Centillium, Conexant, Ikanos, Texas Instruments and ST Microelectronics.
Infineon, one of our larger customers, recently announced their intention to
acquire Texas Instruments' DSL CPE product line. We are uncertain as to how this
acquisition may affect us from a competitive standpoint.

ADSL and VDSL services offered over copper telephone networks also compete with
alternative broadband transmission technologies that use the telephone network
as well as other network architectures. Alternative technologies for the
telephone network include several types of symmetric high speed DSL, including
HDSL, SDSL and G.SHDSL. Alternative technologies that use other network
architectures to provide high-speed data service include cable modems using
cable networks, wireless solutions using wireless networks, and optical
solutions using fiber optics technology. These alternative broadband
transmission technologies may be more successful than ADSL or VDSL and we may
not be able to participate in the markets involving these alternative
technologies.

Many of our current and prospective DSL licensees, as well as chipset
competitors that compete with our semiconductor licensees, including Broadcom,
Conexant, ST Microelectronics and Texas Instruments, have significantly greater
financial, technological, manufacturing, marketing

                                       22



and personnel resources than we do. We may be unable to compete successfully,
and competitive pressures could seriously harm our business.


WE ARE DEPENDENT ON A SINGLE SOURCE CONTRACT MANUFACTURER FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF
OUR DSL HARDWARE PRODUCTS, THE LOSS OF WHICH WOULD HARM OUR BUSINESS

We currently depend on one contract manufacturer to manufacture our DSL hardware
products. If this company was to terminate its arrangement with us or fail to
provide the required capacity and quality on a timely basis, we would be unable
to manufacture our products until replacement contract manufacturing services
could be obtained. To qualify a new contract manufacturer, familiarize it with
our products, quality standards and other requirements, and commence production
is a costly and time-consuming process. We cannot assure you that we would be
able to establish alternative manufacturing relationships on acceptable terms.
Although we make reasonable efforts to ensure that our contract manufacturer
performs to our standards, our reliance on a single source limits our control
over quality assurance and delivery schedules. Defects in workmanship,
unacceptable yields, and manufacturing disruptions and difficulties may impair
our ability to manage inventory and cause delays in shipments and cancellation
of orders that may adversely affect our relationships with current and
prospective customers. As a result, our revenues and operations may be harmed.


OUR MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS MAY NOT BE ADEQUATE FOR OUR DSL TEST AND DIAGNOSTICS
HARDWARE PRODUCT OFFERINGS

Our current manufacturing systems adequately address hardware products we are
currently manufacturing in limited volumes. Our manufacturing systems have not
been extensively tested under anticipated, more complex hardware products or in
volumes higher than that of our current hardware products. If our manufacturing
systems are inadequate or have other problems, our revenues and operating
results may be harmed.


WE ARE DEPENDENT ON SINGLE SOURCE SUPPLIERS FOR COMPONENTS IN OUR DSL HARDWARE
PRODUCTS

We rely on single source suppliers for components and materials used in our DSL
Hardware products. Our dependence on single source suppliers involves several
risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and
delivery schedules. Any delays in delivery of such components or shortages of
such components could cause delays in the shipment of our products, which could
significantly harm our business. Because of our reliance on these vendors, we
may also be subject to increases in component costs. These increases could
significantly harm our business. If any one or more of our single source
suppliers cease to provide us with sufficient quantities of our components in a
timely manner or on terms acceptable to us, we would have to seek alternative
sources of supply. We could incur delays while we locate and engage alternative
qualified suppliers and we might be unable to engage alternative suppliers on
favorable terms. We could incur substantial hardware and software redesign costs
if we are required to replace the components. Any such disruption or increased
expenses could harm our commercialization efforts and adversely affect our
ability to generate revenues.

                                       23



BIOMETRICS BUSINESS RISKS

Our biometrics business is subject to a variety of additional risks, which could
materially adversely affect quarterly and annual operating results, including:

        o       market acceptance of our biometric technologies and products;
        o       changes in contracting practices of government or law
                enforcement agencies;
        o       the failure of the biometrics market to experience continued
                growth;
        o       announcements or introductions of new technologies or products
                or our competitors;
        o       delays or problems in the introduction or performance of
                enhancements or of future generations of our technology;
        o       failures or problems in our biometric software products;
        o       delays in the adoption of new industry biometric standards or
                changes in market perception of the value of new or existing
                standards;
        o       growth of proprietary biometric systems which do not conform to
                industry standards;
        o       competitive pressures resulting in lower software product
                revenues;
        o       personnel changes, particularly those involving engineering,
                technical and sales and marketing personnel;
        o       costs associated with protecting our intellectual property;
        o       litigation by third parties for alleged infringement of their
                proprietary rights;
        o       the potential that licensees could fail to make payments under
                their current contracts;
        o       regulatory developments; and
        o       general economic trends and other factors.

WE MUST MAKE JUDGMENTS IN THE PROCESS OF PREPARING OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles and certain critical accounting polices that are relevant
to our business. The application of these principles and policies requires us to
make significant judgments and estimates. In the event that judgments and
estimates we make are incorrect, we may have to change them, which could
materially affect our financial position and results of operations.

Moreover, accounting standards have been subject to rapid change and evolving
interpretations by accounting standards setting organizations over the past few
years. The implementation of new standards requires us to interpret and apply
them appropriately. If our current interpretations or applications are later
found to be incorrect, our financial position and results of operations could be
materially affected.


OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE EXTREMELY VOLATILE

Volatility in our stock price may negatively affect the price you may receive
for your shares of common stock and increases the risk that we could be the
subject of costly securities litigation. The market price of our common stock
has fluctuated substantially and could continue to fluctuate based on a variety
of factors, including:

        o       quarterly fluctuations in our operating results;
        o       changes in future financial guidance that we may provide to
                investors and public market analysts;
        o       changes in our relationships with our licensees;

                                       24



        o       announcements of technological innovations or new products by
                us, our licensees or our competitors;
        o       changes in DSL or biometrics market growth rates as well as
                investor perceptions regarding the investment opportunity that
                companies participating in the DSL or biometrics industry afford
                them;
        o       changes in earnings estimates by public market analysts;
        o       key personnel losses;
        o       sales of our common stock; and
        o       developments or announcements with respect to industry
                standards, patents or proprietary rights.

In addition, the equity markets have experienced volatility that has
particularly affected the market prices of equity securities of many high
technology companies and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to
the operating performance of such companies. These broad market fluctuations may
adversely affect the market price of our common stock.


OUR BUSINESS MAY BE AFFECTED BY GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

The extensive regulation of the telecommunications industry by federal, state
and foreign regulatory agencies, including the Federal Communications
Commission, and various state public utility and service commissions, could
affect us through the effects of such regulation on our licensees and their
customers. In addition, our business may also be affected by the imposition of
certain tariffs, duties and other import restrictions on components that our
customers obtain from non-domestic suppliers or by the imposition of export
restrictions on products sold internationally and incorporating our technology.
Changes in current or future laws or regulations, in the United States or
elsewhere, could seriously harm our business.
