Item 5.  Other Events.

1.  On May 20, 1999, at a special meeting of the stockholders of SMTEK
    International, Inc. (the "Company"), the stockholders approved a Stock
    Subscription Agreement (the "Agreement") between the Company and TMW
    Enterprises Inc. ("TMW") pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell
    between 9,000,000 and 11,250,000 shares of its Common Stock to TMW or
    an affiliate thereof for an aggregate price of $4,500,000. On May 21,
    1999, TMW assigned its rights and obligations under the Agreement to
    Thomas M. Wheeler, the Company's largest stockholder who is also the
    Chairman and controlling stockholder of TMW.  Immediately following
    this assignment, the Company consummated the sale of 11,250,000 shares
    of Common Stock to Mr. Wheeler for $4,500,000.  In accordance with the
    Agreement, the per share purchase price was determined based on the
    average closing price of the Company's Common Stock on the New York
    Stock Exchange on the last 10 trading days prior to closing, subject to
    a minimum price of $0.40 per share and a maximum price of $0.50 per
    share.  This transaction increased Mr. Wheeler's ownership interest in
    the Company's Common Stock from 18.7% to 38.9%. Also on May 21, the
    Company paid off a $2,000,000 note payable to Mr. Wheeler and accrued
    interest thereon of $302,000.

2.  At the special meeting of stockholders on May 20, 1999, the stockholders
    approved a 1-for-20 reverse split of the Company's outstanding Common
    Stock, and a reduction in authorized Common Stock from 75 million
    shares to 3,750,000 shares. This reverse stock split became effective
    at the beginning of trading on May 25, 1999.
