ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

On February 21, 2000 (the "Closing Date"), QUALCOMM Incorporated

their terrestrial-based wireless CDMA consumer phone business (the "Assets") to
Kyocera Wireless Corp. ("KWC"), formerly known as KII Acquisition Company,
pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated December 22, 1999 among
QUALCOMM, KWC and Kyocera International, Inc., as amended by that certain First
Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of February 20, 2000 (as
amended, the "Asset Purchase Agreement"). QUALCOMM received $216,144,412 in cash
on February 22, 2000 and will receive an additional $19,363,176, plus interest
from February 22, 2000, in cash on consummation of that aspect of the sale
relating to certain foreign business operations and assets (the "Second Closing
Date"). The Second Closing Date is expected to occur in March 2000. Initial
consideration for the Assets will total $235,507,588, provided however, that the
