TEL-INSTRUMENT ANNOUNCES “DRIVE TO MODE 5” MARKETING
PROGRAM FOR INTERNATIONAL MODE 5 IFF CUSTOMERS

East Rutherford, New Jersey – August 25, 2017 – Tel-Instrument Electronics Corp (“Tel”, or the “Company”) (NYSE American: TIK) today announced the kick-off of our “DRIVE TO MODE 5” marketing campaign for our international Mode 5 IFF customers.

Jeffrey C. O’Hara, the Company’s President and CEO, stated “the transition to Mode 5 IFF test capability for our international customers will represent a massive undertaking involving thousands of different airborne, ship and ground based platforms. This new program is meant to raise awareness of our market leading Mode 5 test products, and provide financial and other incentives to ensure our international customers meet their Mode 5 fielding requirements well in advance of the January 1, 2020 deadline for all NATO and international allies.

Tel Instrument has five different Mode 5 test sets with over 5,000 of these units delivered, including our AN/USM-708, AN/USM,-719, TR-420, TS-4530, and T-47/M5 test sets. This represents an estimated 95% world-wide market share in Mode 5 flight-line testing. Our new T-47/M5 test set represents the most cost-effective upgrade option for our large base of international customers fielding our 480 and T-47 series Mode 4 test sets. Tel has already received orders for this new test set from three different international markets and expects to start delivering units starting in October. Our new Remote Client application will also provide substantial benefits to our customers for their Mode 5 certification efforts. This software allows the operator to utilize and control our Mode 5 test sets utilizing a Windows® computer or laptop and offers expanded and detailed printed test results not available on the standard test set display.”
