Voting Rights and Solicitation of Proxies

The Company’s Common Stock is the only class of security entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on December 1, 2006, 18,067,745 shares of the Company’s Common Stock were issued and outstanding. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held of record by such shareholder as of the close of business on December 1, 2006. Consequently, only shareholders of record at the close of business on December 1, 2006, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. All shares represented by valid proxies that are received prior to the Annual Meeting and are not subsequently revoked will be voted, and voted in accordance with the directions specified in the proxy. See Votes Required for a description of the treatment of proxies in which no directions are specified. Shares of Common Stock may not be voted cumulatively. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

Revocability of Proxies

Any shareholder who has executed and returned a proxy may revoke it at any time before the proxy is voted. The proxy may be revoked by filing with the Secretary of the Company at the Company's principal executive office a written notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

Quorum

The Company’s bylaws provide that the holders of fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum.

Votes Required

Election of Directors. Directors are elected by a plurality of the affirmative votes cast by those shares present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The nominees for director receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted toward a nominee's total. In the event no directions are specified, valid proxies that are not revoked will be voted FOR the nominees identified in this Proxy Statement. Should any nominee identified in this Proxy Statement decline or prove unable to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, valid proxies voted FOR the nominee and that are not revoked will be voted for any nominee who may be designated by the present Board of Directors to fill the vacancy. Each of the nominees identified in this Proxy Statement has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve if elected. To the knowledge of the Company’s Board of Directors, as of the date of this Proxy Statement, no nominee intends to decline service as a director or will prove unable to serve as a director.

The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote FOR the election of each director.

1


All other matters. All other matters require for approval the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present in person, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will be counted as votes against approval. Broker non-votes will be counted as neither votes for nor votes against approval.

Solicitation

The Company will bear the entire cost of solicitation of proxies including preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this Proxy Statement, the proxy and any additional soliciting material furnished to shareholders. Soliciting material will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries, and custodians for forwarding to beneficial owners. The Company may reimburse such persons for their costs in forwarding the soliciting material. Directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company may supplement the original solicitation of proxies by mail through solicitation by telephone or other means. No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services. The Company may also employ a proxy solicitation service, in which case the Company may pay a fee to the proxy solicitation service.

Board Committees and Meetings

The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committee (Nominating Committee was formed on November 22, 2006).

     The Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee is responsible for developing and setting the compensation policy for executive officers of the Company, which includes approving employment agreements, reviewing and approving compensation plans, establishing performance targets for, and assessing the performance of the Company’s executive officers, and making grants of salary, annual incentive compensation and long-term incentive compensation. With respect to employees other than executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviews and acts upon management recommendations concerning employee stock options, bonuses and other compensation. The Compensation Committee also develops and makes compensation policy for the non-employee directors. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Mr. Ford, Committee Chairman, and Mr. Wiley, each of whom is an independent director as defined by NASDAQ listing standards. The Compensation Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006.

     The Audit Committee

The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities concerning, among other things, the Company's financial reporting process and systems of internal controls, and facilitates open communication among the Audit Committee, the Board of Directors, the outside auditors and the Company’s management. The Board of Directors certifies that it has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A, and that the Audit

3


Committee has reviewed and reassessed the adequacy of the charter on an annual basis. The charter outlines the various duties and responsibilities of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee currently consists of Mr. Clucas, Committee Chairman, Mr. Barker and Mr. Ford, each of whom qualifies as an independent director, as that term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule A under the Exchange Act, under Exchange Act Rule 10A-3(b)(1) and Rule 4200(a) of the NASDAQ listing standards. The Audit Committee met five times during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006. The Board of Directors has determined that the Company has at least one audit committee financial expert (Mr. Clucas), as defined by Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K, serving on its audit committee. The Company certifies that it has, and will continue to have, at least one Audit Committee member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or comparable experience or background that evidences financial sophistication.

     Nominating Committee

On November 22, 2006 the Board of Directors formed a Nominating Committee. The members of the Nominating Committee are Mr. Clucas, Mr. Ford and Mr. Barker, with Mr. Barker serving as Committee Chairman. Each of the members of the Nominating Committee is as an independent director as that term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule A under the Exchange Act, under Exchange Act Rule 10A-3(b)(1) and Rule 4200(a) of the NASDAQ listing standards. The Nominating Committee will assist the board of directors in identifying individuals qualified to become board members and recommend to the board the nominees for election as directors at the next annual meeting of stockholders. The Nominating Committee Charter is attached as Appendix B to this proxy statement.

The Nominating Committee will identify nominees for director positions from various sources. In assessing potential director nominees, the committee will consider individuals who have demonstrated exceptional ability and judgment and who will be most effective, in conjunction with the other nominees and board members, in collectively serving the long-term interests of the stockholders. The Nominating Committee also will consider any potential conflicts of interest. All director nominees must possess a reputation for the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values. In addition, nominees must also be willing to devote sufficient time and effort in carrying out their duties and responsibilities effectively, and should be committed to serve on the board for an extended period of time. The minimum qualifications for candidates for the Board of Directors are: experience at a publicly traded company; personal integrity; familiarity with the telecommunications industry; loyalty to Telular and concern for its success and welfare; experience at a policy setting level; high-level leadership experience in business; breadth of knowledge about issues affecting Telular; an ability to work effectively with others; sufficient time to devote to Telular; and freedom from conflicts of interest.

     Nomination Procedures Prior to the Adoption of the Nominations Committee

Since the Board of Directors did not have a standing Nominating Committee during fiscal year 2006 it relied on the judgment of Mr. Barker, Mr. Clucas, Mr. Ford and Mr. Wiley, each of whom is an independent director as defined by NASDAQ listing standards, when recommending candidates for election. Further, each independent director had been charged with the responsibility to locate director candidates, as necessary. Candidates for director have been reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board, the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. The independent directors collectively agreed on which director candidates to recommend for director. The Company certifies that it had adopted board resolutions addressing the director nomination process as required under federal securities laws. All of the nominees to the Board were nominated by the current members of the Board of Directors.

     Shareholder Nominations to the Board of Directors

The independent directors will consider persons recommended by shareholders in selecting nominees for election to the Board of Directors. Shareholders who wish to suggest qualified candidates should write to: Telular Corporation, 647 N. Lakeview Parkway, Vernon Hills, IL 60061, Attention: Lead Independent Director, Larry J. Ford. All recommendations should state in detail the qualification of such persons for consideration by the independent directors and should be accompanied by an indication of the person’s willingness to serve.

     Board Meetings and Attendance

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, the Board of Directors held 12 meetings. Each incumbent member of the Board of Directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors held during the period during which he was a director, and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which he served during the period that he was a committee member. Each incumbent member of the Board of Directors attended last year’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Company policy requires all of the current directors to make a best effort to attend the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders on January 30, 2007.

Shareholder Communications to the Board
The Company has a process in place to immediately forward all communications addressed to its Board of Directors and received by the Company to its Lead Independent Director (currently Mr. Ford), who then distributes such communications to the other directors.

Compensation of Directors
Directors of the Company who are employees of the Company received no compensation for serving on the Board of Directors. Mr. Boyle and Mr. Giacopelli are directors and employees of the Company.

Each director that the Board of Directors has determined to be independent, in accordance with Rule 4200(a) of the NASDAQ listing standards (each, an Independent Director) is compensated in the form of a cash retainer payment and a stock option for attending meetings of the Board of Directors and committee meetings of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has determined that during fiscal year 2006, Mr. Barker, Mr. Clucas, Mr. Ford and Mr. Wiley were Independent Directors.

Mr. Berndt, who was an independent director and served as Lead Independent Director and a member of the Audit and Compensation Committees prior to serving as interim President and CEO from February 2005 to July 2005, received the same compensation as the Independent Directors during fiscal year 2006. Under NASDAQ regulations, Mr. Berndt can not qualify as a Telular Independent Director again until three years after his last day, July 31, 2005, as interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006, Directors Berndt, Barker, Clucas, Ford and Wiley received a retainer payment of $10,000 and an option to purchase 10,300 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. These stock options were issued on October 24, 2005, have a strike price of $3.52 (the closing market price of the Company’s Common Stock on that date), and became fully vested as of October 24, 2006.

All directors are reimbursed for all reasonable expenses of attendance at each meeting.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

The Company has engaged in the following related party transactions. These transactions were effected at arms length and are no less favorable to the Company than they would have been if they involved unaffiliated third parties.

During the fiscal year 2006, the Company paid Mr. David C. Giacopelli $86,000 in compensation as part of his employment with the Company. Mr. Giacopelli is the brother of director and officer Daniel D. Giacopelli, and is employed by the Company under Daniel’s direct supervision.

On May 8, 2006, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement between the Company, CSI Wireless Inc. and CSI Wireless LLC (collectively “CSI Wireless” or “CSI”), CSI Wireless exchanged substantially all of the assets of its fixed wireless telephone division business for cash and shares of Common Stock of the Company. In exchange for those assets, the Company (i) issued to CSI Wireless 1,931,745 shares of Common Stock, valued at $5.5 million as of the closing date, plus cash in the amount of $3.0 million, and (ii) assumed certain liabilities of CSI Wireless. Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company also is obligated to issue to CSI Wireless up to 515,132 additional shares of Company Common Stock with respect to the period from March 31, 2006, through December 31, 2006, and up to 643,915 shares of Common Stock with respect to the period from May 1, 2006, through June 30, 2007. The actual amount of Company Common Stock issuable pursuant to these provisions depends on the achievement by the Company of performance targets with respect to the acquired assets. Finally, in connection with the transaction, the Company has a liability to CSI Wireless in the amount of $0.5 million as of September 30, 2006. This amount relates to a post-closing inventory adjustment, a post-closing working capital adjustment and related matters. Prior to the Company’s purchase of the fixed wireless division of CSI Wireless, CSI Wireless did not own any shares of the Company’s common stock. The Asset Purchase Agreement was negotiated on an arms’ length basis with the price approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors establishes the general compensation policies of the Company and specific compensation for each of the Company’s executive officers. The purpose of this report is to inform shareholders of the Company’s compensation policies for executive officers.

Compensation Philosophy
The Company has historically implemented a “pay for performance” compensation program for its executive officers. The compensation program is designed to motivate and reward executives responsible for attaining the financial objectives essential to the Company’s success, while at the same time allowing the Company to attract and retain high-caliber executives. The Committee believes that the Company’s compensation practices reward executives commensurately with their ability (i) to meet the Company’s established financial targets and other goals, through cash bonuses, and (ii) to drive increases in shareholder value, through stock options.

A central feature of the Company’s compensation program is its emphasis on objective performance incentives that put a substantial portion of executives’ total cash compensation at risk by tying it to the achievement of objective financial results. An additional important aspect of the Company’s compensation program is its use of stock options. The Committee believes that the use of stock-based incentives ensures that the executive’s interests are aligned with the long-term interests of the Company’s shareholders. Executives are thereby given the incentive not only to meet their annual performance objectives but also to achieve longer-term strategic goals. The Company utilizes market based salary surveys from independent sources and assesses individual performances to establish executive compensation levels.

Compensation Program
The key components of the Company’s compensation program are base salary, cash bonuses and stock options. The Committee is a standing committee currently composed of two directors, Mr. Ford and Mr. Wiley, both of whom are independent directors.

Base Salary. The Committee annually reviews the base salary of each executive officer.

Bonuses. Each executive of the Company is given a specified annual bonus target that they will receive if the annual financial objectives set by the Board of Directors are met and a specified quarterly bonus target that they will receive if quarterly task objectives set by the Board of Directors are met. These bonus targets represent a significant portion of overall compensation, 50% of base salary in the case of the CEO. In addition, the Committee has authority to award bonuses in its discretion, including retention bonuses.

Stock Options. Long-term incentives are provided through the Company’s Stock Option Plans. The Plans are administered by the Committee, which is authorized to award stock options to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and non-employee directors of the Company.

Upon recommendation of the CEO, the Compensation Committee decided to provide merit base salary increase to non-executive employees during fiscal year 2006. Certain employees in this group were given market base salary increases. Employees in this group were also awarded stock option grants and given the continued opportunity to participate in applicable company bonus plans.

Also upon the recommendation of the CEO, with the exception of Mr. Brody, the Compensation Committee decided not to provide base salary increases to executive employees during fiscal year 2006. Executives were awarded stock option grants and given the continued opportunity to participate in applicable Company bonus plans. Additional details are included in the Executive Compensation table on page 7 of this proxy statement.

The CEO, Mr. Boyle’s compensation was established pursuant to an employment agreement dated August 1, 2005. During fiscal year 2006, Mr. Boyle received base salary pay of $300,000, bonus of $31,630 and was granted a stock option for 50,000 shares.

If a Committee member ceases to be independent for reasons outside the member’s reasonable control, his or her membership on the Committee may continue until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting or one year from the occurrence of the event that caused the failure to qualify as independent.

Each of the Committee members shall be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including the Company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement, at the time of his or her appointment to the Committee. At least one member of the Committee shall be an “audit committee financial expert” (as defined by applicable NASDAQ and SEC rules and regulations).

The Board of Directors has sole authority to appoint and remove members of the Committee. The Board may remove members of the Audit Committee from such committee at any time, with or without cause. Each member of the Committee shall serve a one-year term or shall serve until such member’s successor shall be duly elected and qualified.

The Board of Directors has authority to select a Chairman of the Committee. If the Board does not select a Chair of the Committee, the Committee shall elect a Chair by majority vote.

The compensation of Committee members shall be as determined by the Board of Directors. No member of the Committee may receive more than $60,000 of compensation for services to the Company other than fees paid in his or her capacity as members of the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors.

Purpose

The purpose of the Committee is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. The Committee’s primary duties and responsibilities are to oversee:

Purpose
The Nominating Committee (the “Committee”) is appointed by and is intended to assist the Board of Directors of Telular Corporation. (the “Company”) in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities under the Nasdaq listing standards and Delaware law. The Committee shall be responsible for identifying individuals qualified to serve on the Board of Directors, consistent with criteria approved by the Board of Directors, and for selecting, or recommending that the Board of Directors select, a slate of director nominees for election by the stockholders of the Company at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company, in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and with Delaware law.

Composition of the Committee
All of the members of the Committee shall be independent directors who meet the requirements of the Nasdaq listing standards and appointed by the Board of Directors on the recommendation of the then current Committee. The Chairman of the Committee shall be designated by the Board of Directors. In the absence of the Chairman, the members of the Committee may designate a chairman by majority vote. The Board of Directors may, at any time, remove one or more directors as members of the Committee and may fill any vacancy on the Committee. The Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees when appropriate.

Authority and Responsibilities

Nominating Function
At least annually, the Committee shall review with the Board of Directors the appropriate skills and characteristics required of Board of Directors members. The Committee is responsible for developing and implementing the screening process necessary to identify qualified candidates. As a part of its screening process, the Committee shall:

  • evaluate a candidate’s independence from the Company’s management and other principal service providers and the effect of any relationships that might impair independence, e.g., business, financial or family relationships with the Company’s management or other service providers; and

  • consider candidates proposed by the chief executive officer, by any director or by any stockholder, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee from time to time. The Committee may determine, from time to time, the advisability of retaining any search firm or consultant to assist in the identification and evaluation of candidates for membership on the Board of Directors. The Committee has the sole authority over decisions relating to the retention of a search firm or consultant, including decisions to retain or terminate any such search firm or consultant at the Company’s expense, and to approve the fees to be paid to such firm or consultant and all other retention terms.

Other Activities
The Committee shall perform any other activities consistent with this Charter, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and governing law as the Committee or the Board of Directors deems necessary or appropriate. To these ends, the Committee shall have and may exercise all powers and authority of the Board of Directors to the extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Committee Meetings
The Committee shall meet at least one time per year and one such meeting shall be held at a time when the Committee can recommend a slate of nominees to the Board of Directors in connection with the annual meeting of stockholders. Other meetings may be held at the discretion of the Chairman of the Committee. Minutes of each of these meetings shall be kept. The Committee shall determine the agenda for its meetings.
