           SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION v. HALTON TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.
                No. 98-Civ-6634 (BSJ) (S.D.N.Y.) (September 18, 1998)

             COURT FREEZES PROCEEDS OF ALLEGED INSIDER TRADING BY HALTON
          TECHNOLOGIES, LTD., IN SECURITIES OF TELEDATA COMMUNICATIONS LTD.

                   SEC, In Emergency Federal Court Action, Obtains
                Order Freezing About $300,000 In Profits From Trading
                 In The Securities Of Teledata By Trader That Bought
                       Shortly Before Acquisition Announcement

          The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that the
          U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered
          a Temporary Restraining Order late Friday against Halton
          Technologies, Ltd., temporarily prohibiting Halton from obtaining
          or disposing of proceeds from the sale of the securities of
          Teledata Communications Ltd., an Israeli firm whose stock trades
          on the Nasdaq market in the United States.  The Commission's
          complaint alleges that Halton engaged in illegal insider trading
          shortly before the September 16, 1998 announcement that ADC
          Telecommunications, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, intended to
          acquire Teledata.

          According to the Commission's complaint, Halton is an Israeli
          entity located in the same city, Herzelyia, where Teledata is
          headquartered.  The Commission alleges that on September 1 and 2,
          1998, Halton, while in possession of material, non-public
          information about the acquisition, spent more than $450,000 to
          purchase a total of 225 Teledata call options and 45,000 shares
          of Teledata common stock through an account with CIBC Oppenheimer
          Corp. in New York.  After ADC and Teledata announced their
          merger, Halton's investment rose in value by more than $300,000,
          or 66%.

          In the pending lawsuit, the Commission alleges that Halton
          engaged in illegal insider trading in violation of Section 10(b)
          of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5.  As
          relief, the Commission seeks a permanent prohibitory injunction,
          the disgorgement of all illegal profits, and the imposition of
          civil monetary penalties.

          The Court's Temporary Restraining Order prohibits the removal of
          any proceeds from the sale of Halton's Teledata securities for a
          10-day period.  In addition, the court's Order imposes an
          expedited discovery schedule and prohibits the defendants from
          destroying documents.

          The Commission acknowledges the assistance of the Chicago Board
          Options Exchange, and the National Association of Securities
          Dealers in this matter.
