Wiltek, Inc., today announced that it has entered into a letter of
intent with SplinterCom, Inc., a private company, providing for a
business combination between a newly formed subsidiary of Wiltek and
SplinterCom.  The transaction contemplates that Wiltek would acquire
SplinterCom's assets, along with $3.5 million in cash that
SplinterCom will have raised in a private financing from a small
group of institutional investors, in exchange for 3.5 million shares
of Wiltek Common Stock.  SplinterCom has also entered into a separate
letter of intent to acquire 796,950 shares of Wiltek from certain
directors at a purchase price of $0.85 per share.


The business combination, financing and stock purchase would
occur simultaneously and each would be subject to the closing of the
other elements of the transaction.  The transaction is subject to the
execution of definitive agreements, the completion of the financing
and other customary conditions.  It is expected that, upon completion
of the transaction, designees of SplinterCom would constitute a
majority of Wiltek's board of directors.  David Teitelman, Wiltek's
president, will continue in that role and join Wiltek's board of
directors.  Graeme MacLetchie will continue as a director and will
retain his Wiltek shares.
