                                 LOAN AGREEMENT
                                 --------------


         This Loan Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into at Cleveland,
Ohio, by and between THE HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK (the "Bank"), and AIRONET
WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to
as "Borrower") as of the 24th day of July, 1998.


1 THE LOAN. The Bank, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, will extend
credit to the Borrower up to the aggregate principal sum of $5,000,000.00 (the
"Loan").

1.1 THE REVOLVING LOAN AND BORROWING BASE. The Bank will extend a revolving
credit facility to the Borrower under which the Bank shall make, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, loans and advances on a revolving basis up to the
principal sum of $5,000,000.00 (the "Revolving Loan"). The principal balance of
the Revolving Loan shall not exceed an amount equal to up to the sum of: (i) 80%
of Eligible Accounts plus (ii) 50% of Eligible Inventory plus (iii) 100% of cash
on deposit with the Bank (collectively the "Borrowing Base"). The Bank, in its
reasonable discretion, reserves the right upon forty-five (45) days prior
written notice to the Borrower to increase or decrease the foregoing
percentages.

1.2 PENDING DEFAULTS. The Bank shall have no obligation to advance or readvance
any sums pursuant to the Revolving Loan, at any time when a set of facts or
circumstances exists, which, by itself, upon the giving of notice, the lapse of
time, or any one or more of the foregoing would constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement (a "Pending Default").

1.3 LOAN TERMINATION. Borrower shall have the right, upon five (5) days prior
written notice to Bank, to terminate the Loan at any time prior to the maturity
date of July 1, 2000 without the imposition of any prepayment fee or premium.
The Bank shall have the right to terminate the Loan, upon at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice to Borrower, if and in the event Telxon Corporation
("Telxon") is acquired or merged into an otherwise unaffiliated entity and
Telxon, after such merger or consolidation, is not the surviving entity or if
the voting control of such merged or consolidated entity is not, in effect,
under the control of essentially the same group of shareholders and/or directors
as possessed such control as to Telxon prior to such merger or consolidation.

2 ELIGIBILITY.
  -----------

2.1 ELIGIBLE ACCOUNTS. The term "Eligible Accounts" means the portion of the
Borrower's accounts arising in the ordinary course of the Borrower's business
from the sale of goods or services. An account shall not be deemed an "Eligible
Account" if such account is subject to any lien, encumbrance, or security
interest, and unless such account is evidenced by an invoice or other
documentary evidence satisfactory to the Bank, is unconditionally due and
payable in U.S. 



   6

dollars to the Borrower from a party (the "Account Debtor") and conforms to the
warranties regarding the accounts contained in this Agreement. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, no account shall be an Eligible Account if:

         (a) the account is due and unpaid more than 120 days from the original
invoice date;

         (b) the account arises from uncompleted performance on the part of the
Borrower, constitutes a progress billing or advance billing, unless such account
arises from a contract which is subject to a 30 day cancellation clause, is a
"bill and hold," or, if involving a sale of goods, all such goods have not been
lawfully shipped and invoiced to the Account Debtor, (or if requested by the
Bank, copies of all invoices, together with all shipping documents and delivery
receipts evidencing such shipment have not been delivered to the Bank);

         (c) the account arises from a contract with any government or agency
thereof;

         (d) the account is subject to any prior assignment, claim, lien,
subrogation rights or security interest, or subject to any levy or setoff;

         (e) the account is subject to any credit, contra account, allowance,
adjustment, return of goods, or discount (collectively a "Contra"), provided,
however, that unless the Account Debtor has asserted a Contra, if the amount of
the account exceeds the amount of the Contra, such excess shall be considered
for eligibility if such excess is not otherwise excluded by this Section 2.1;

         (f) the account arises from an Affiliate, "Affiliate" shall mean any
individual, partnership, corporation, or other entity which, directly or
indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under common control with
the Borrower, or is a family member related by birth or marriage and "Control".
For the purposes of this definition,"control" of such entity shall mean the
power, directly or indirectly, to vote 5% or more of the securities, units or
other measures having ordinary voting power for the election of directors,
management committees, or similar committees of such entity, or the power to
direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity,
whether by contract or otherwise;

         (g) the account, when added to all other accounts of the Account Debtor
with the Borrower, produces an aggregate indebtedness from the Account Debtor of
more than 50% of the total of all the Borrower's Eligible Accounts;

         (h) the Account Debtor is in bankruptcy, receivership or similar
proceedings or has been declared insolvent; or


                                      -2-
   7


         (i) the account is evidenced by any chattel paper, promissory note,
payment instrument or written agreement or arises from a consumer.

2.2 ELIGIBLE INVENTORY. The term "Eligible Inventory" means that portion of the
Borrower's inventory that the Bank determines from time to time, based on credit
policies, market conditions, the Borrower's business and other matters, is
eligible for use in calculating the Borrowing Base. For purposes of determining
the Borrowing Base, Eligible Inventory shall not include (a) work in process,
(b)obsolete or discontinued inventory, (c) supply items, packaging, or the
freight portion of raw materials, (d) inventory in the control of a third person
for processing, storage, or otherwise unless the Borrower shall have obtained
and delivered to the Bank, a bailee's waiver or secured party of bailee's
waiver, in form satisfactory to the Bank, the original documents or other
instruments evidencing such inventory, or such other agreements or other
documents the Bank shall require in its sole and absolute discretion, (e)
consigned inventory, (f) inventory in transit, (g) inventory associated with any
contract of which the Borrower has knowledge that the same may be subject to a
material adverse development, (h) inventory located outside the United States or
(i) inventory associated with any contract to the extent that progress or
advance payments are received from the Account Debtor to the extent such
inventory is identified to such contract. All inventory shall be valued at the
lesser of cost or market.

and the Borrowing Base.

In connection therewith, the Borrower will pay to the Bank reasonable fees and
all out-of-pocket expenses of such auditors (collectively "Audit Fees and
Costs"). Such Audit Fees and Costs shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand;

of its request to extend the Revolving Loan upon the expiration of the original
Revolving Loan or any extended term (the "Extension Notice"). Upon receipt of
the Extension Notice Bank shall have 30 days to respond and Bank's failure to
respond shall be deemed a determination not to renew the Revolving Note.

3.9 MAXIMUM CHARGES. In no event whatsoever shall the interest rate and other
charges hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under law which a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto.
In the event such a court determines that the Bank has received interest or

                                 REVOLVING NOTE

$5,000.000.00                               Cleveland, Ohio ______________, 1998


         FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Aironet Wireless Communications,
Inc., a Delaware corporation, promises to pay to the order of The Huntington
National Bank (hereinafter called the "Bank", which term shall include any
holder hereof) at such place as the Bank may designate or, in the absence of
such designation, at any of the Bank's offices, the sum of Five Million and
No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00), or so much thereof as shall have been advanced
by the Bank at any time and not hereafter repaid (hereinafter called the
"Principal Sum") together with interest as hereinafter provided, and payable at
the times and in the manner hereinafter set forth. The proceeds of the loan
evidenced hereby may be advanced, repaid and readvanced, in partial amounts,
during the term of this Note and prior to maturity, provided that no partial
advance of the Principal Sum shall be made hereon which would result in the
unpaid Principal Sum to exceed in the aggregate $5,000,000.00. Each such advance
shall be made to the undersigned upon receipt by the Bank of the undersigned's
application therefor and disbursement instructions, which shall be in such form
as the Bank shall from time to time prescribe. The Bank shall be entitled to
rely on any oral or telephonic communication requesting an advance and/or
providing disbursement instructions hereunder, which shall be received by it in
good faith from anyone reasonably believed by the Bank to be the undersigned's
authorized agent. The undersigned agrees that all advances made by the Bank will
be evidenced by entries made by the Bank into its electronic data processing
system and/or internal memoranda maintained by the Bank and that all advances
made by the Bank as Prime Commercial Rate Advances, or LIBOR Advances (and the
applicable interest rate(s) and maturity(ies)) and all payments by the
undersigned on such advances may also be evidenced by entries made by the Bank
on the Grid(s) attached hereto; provided, however, that the Bank's failure to
make such entries on the Grid(s) with respect to any advance or payment shall
not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the undersigned to repay the
advances and accrued interest. The undersigned further agrees that the sum or
sums shown on the most recent printout from the Bank's electronic data
processing system and/or such memoranda shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence
of the amount of the Principal Sum, the amount of any accrued interest, any and
all payments, and the applicable interest rate(s) and maturity(ies) thereof.
Each request for an advance shall constitute a warranty and representation by
the undersigned that no Event of Default hereunder or under the related Loan
Agreement has occurred and is continuing and that no event or circumstance which
would constitute such an Event of Default, but for the requirement that notice
be given or time elapse or both, has occurred and is continuing.

         This Note is executed and the advances contemplated hereunder are to be
made pursuant to the Loan Agreement by and between the undersigned and the Bank
dated as of the date hereof, as amended from time to time (the "Loan Agreement")
under which the Bank has indicated its willingness to extend credit from time to
time to the undersigned but is not obligated to do so. 



   28

Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them as
set forth in the Loan Agreement.

INTEREST
- --------

         The undersigned, at its option, may request a Prime Commercial Rate
Advance, or a LIBOR Advance under this Note. For the purposes of this Note the
following terms and conditions shall apply to the respective advances requested
by the undersigned.

PRIME COMMERCIAL RATE ADVANCES
- ------------------------------

         Each request for a Prime Commercial Rate Advance shall be in any
available amount requested by the undersigned. Interest will accrue on the
unpaid balance of the Principal Sum of the advance until paid at a variable rate
of interest per annum, which shall change in the manner set forth below, based
on the applicable Prime Commercial Rate. All interest shall be calculated on the
basis of a 360 day year for the actual number of days the Principal Sum or any
part thereof remains unpaid.

         As used herein, Prime Commercial Rate shall mean the rate established
by the Bank from time to time based on its consideration of economic, money
market, business and competitive factors, and it is not necessarily the Bank's
most favored rate. Subject to any maximum interest rate limitations specified by
applicable law, any variable rate of interest on the obligation evidenced hereby
shall change automatically without notice to the undersigned immediately with
each change in the Prime Commercial Rate effective as of the opening of business
on the day of the change.

MANNER OF PAYMENT
- -----------------

         The Principal Sum advanced as Prime Commercial Rate Advances shall be
payable July 1, 2000. Accrued interest shall be due and payable monthly
beginning on the first day of the month following initial disbursement of a
Prime Commercial Advance, and at maturity, whether by demand, acceleration, or
otherwise. There shall be no penalty for prepayment and the amount of any
payment shall first be applied to the payment of accrued interest which is due.

LIBOR ADVANCES
- --------------

         Each request for a LIBOR Advance, with the exception for the daily
LIBOR Advances, shall be in an amount of $100,000.00 and additional increments
of $100,000.00. Whenever the undersigned makes a request for a LIBOR Advance the
Bank shall quote the rate available based upon LIBOR and if not accepted
immediately the quoted rate shall expire. The Principal Sum advances as a LIBOR
Advance shall be for daily, 30, 60, 90 or 180 days as designated by the
undersigned and interest will accrue on the unpaid balance of such advance at a
rate of interest per annum equal to 2.00 percentage points in excess of the
quoted LIBOR for the period of time 


                                      -2-
   29

requested by the undersigned. All interest shall be calculated on the basis of a
360 day year for the actual number of days the LIBOR Advance remains unpaid.

         As used herein, London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") shall mean, in
respect to any period referred to above, the rate of interest the Bank may quote
to the undersigned, from time to time and subject to change without notice,
determined on the basis of the Offered Rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars in an
amount comparable to the partial advance of the Principal Sum for a period equal
to the applicable maturity of said advance which appears on the Reuter Screen
LIBO Page as of 8:00 A.M., Columbus, Ohio time on the date that is two (2)
banking days of the Bank preceding the first day of the applicable borrowing
period requested by the undersigned except for the daily LIBOR which is the 30
day spot LIBOR Rate applicable for each day that the daily LIBOR Advance is
outstanding.

         If two (2) or more Offered Rates appear on the Reuter Screen LIBO Page,
the Offered Rate will be averaged (rounded upward if necessary, to the nearest
one sixteenth of one percent (1/16th of 1%)) to determine the quoted rate. As
used herein, Reuter Screen LIBO Page means the display designated as page "LIBO"
on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace the
LIBO Page on the service for the purpose of displaying London Interbank Offered
Rates of major banks).

         Rates quoted by the Bank for LIBOR Advances shall mean the per annum
rate that is equal to the sum of LIBOR plus the rate representing the cost, if
any, of maintaining reserves against "Eurocurrency Liabilities" under Regulation
D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This provision is for
the benefit of the Bank and is not intended to increase the expected yield to
the Bank above the rate of interest provided for herein.

MANNER OF PAYMENT
- -----------------

         Each Principal Sum LIBOR Advance and accrued interest shall be due and
payable on the last day of the measurement period elected by the undersigned for
the advance and at maturity, provided, that interest for LIBOR Advances of 180
days shall be due and payable on each three (3) month period during such Advance
and accrued interest on each daily LIBOR Advance shall be due and payable
monthly. The undersigned shall not be permitted to make any voluntary prepayment
during any measurement period. The term of each successive measurement period
applicable to a requested LIBOR Advance shall commence on the last day of the
next preceding measurement period. Whenever the measurement period would
otherwise end on any day that is not a general banking day the last day of the
measurement period shall automatically extend to the next Bank business day
unless such extended banking day would fall in another calendar month in which
case such maturity date shall be the next preceding banking day of the Bank. If
a LIBOR Advance is not paid on the last day of the measurement period or a
successive measurement period requested for the unpaid LIBOR Advance, and
accrued interest paid, the unpaid LIBOR Advance shall be converted to a Prime
Commercial Rate Advance.


                                      -3-
   30

         The undersigned shall not have the option of electing a measurement
period for a LIBOR Advance which would end after July 1, 2000.

PREPAYMENT OF LIBOR ADVANCE
- ---------------------------

Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time to prepay all or
any part of the principal amount of this Note then outstanding as designated by
Borrower, plus interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such
prepayment. Borrower shall give Bank notice of prepayment of any Prime
Commercial Rate Advances by not later than 11:00 a.m. Cleveland time on the
Cleveland banking day such prepayment is to be made and written notice of the
prepayment of any LIBOR Advances not later than 1:00 p.m. Cleveland time two (2)
Cleveland banking days before the Cleveland banking day on which such prepayment
is to be made. Prepayments of Prime Commercial Rate Advances shall be without
any premium or penalty. In any case of prepayment of any LIBOR Advances,
Borrower agrees that if LIBOR as determined as of 11:00 a.m. Cleveland time, two
(2) Cleveland banking days prior to the date of prepayment of any LIBOR Advances
(hereinafter "Prepayment LIBOR") shall be lower than the last LIBOR previously
determined for those LIBOR Advances with respect to which prepayment is intended
to be made (hereinafter "Last LIBOR"), then Borrower shall, upon written notice
by Bank, promptly pay to Bank in immediately available funds, a prepayment
penalty equal to the product of (a) a rate (the "Prepayment Penalty Rate") which
shall be equal to the difference between the Last LIBOR and the Prepayment LIBOR
times (b) all or such part of the principal amounts of the Notes as relates to
the LIBOR Advances to be prepaid, times (c) the number of days in the period
commencing with the date on which such prepayment is to be made to that date
which coincides with the last day of the Interest Period previously established
when the LIBOR Advances, which are to be prepaid, were made divided by 360. In
addition, Borrower shall immediately pay directly to Bank, the amount claimed as
additional costs or expenses (including without limitation, cost of telex, wires
or cables) incurred in connection with the prepayment, upon Borrower's receipt
of a written statement from Bank. Each prepayment of a LIBOR Advance shall be in
the aggregate principal sum of not less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000.00). In the event Borrower cancels a proposed LIBOR Advance subsequent
to the delivery to Bank of the notice of the proposed date, aggregate amount and
initial Interest Period of such Loan, but prior to the draw down of funds
thereunder, such cancellation shall be treated as a prepayment subject to the
aforementioned prepayment penalty. The foregoing paragraph does not apply to
daily LIBOR Advances.

SPECIAL LIBOR ADVANCE PROVISION
- -------------------------------

         If it becomes illegal for the Bank to charge and accrue interest on the
Principal Sum based on LIBOR as a result of change after the date of this Note
in any applicable law, governmental regulation, guideline or order, or the
interpretation of any thereof, by any authority charged with the administration
thereof, then upon notice thereof by the Bank to the undersigned, the
undersigned (a) may not request or cause the Principal Sum to accrue interest at
a rate based on LIBOR for so long as accruing interest at a rate based on LIBOR
remains illegal, and (b) shall 



                                      -4-
   31

select another interest rate for the Principal Sum and pay to the Bank upon
written request such amount or amounts as in the reasonable judgment of the
Bank, calculated in good faith without manifest error by the Bank will
compensate the Bank for any loss, premium or penalty incurred by the Bank
because of such change in the interest rate.

         If the effect of any change occurring after the date of this Note in
any applicable law, governmental regulation, guideline or order, or the
interpretation or application of any thereof, by any authority charged with the
administration thereof, is to increase the actual costs of the Bank for accruing
interest on the Principal Sum at a rate based on LIBOR, such as, but not limited
to, any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements against assets held by,
or deposits in or for the account, or loans by, or any other acquisition of
funds for loans by, the Bank, or to reduce the amount of any payment of
principal or of interest received by the Bank, (including any reduction for
withholding taxes), the undersigned will, after demand by the Bank, pay to the
Bank such additional amounts as will compensate the Bank for such additional
costs or reduction, such payments to be made on the next day when interest is
payable to the Bank. If subsequent to any such increase in costs or such
reduction the applicability of such change or such underlying law, governmental
regulation, guideline or order or the interpretation of any thereof is repealed,
annulled, withdrawn, reinterpreted, amended or otherwise modified so as to
eliminate or reduce such increase in costs or such reduction, then, effective as
of the time of such elimination of an increased cost or reduction is actually
effective, the benefits thereof (but only to the extent that the same are
actually received by the Bank) shall accrue to the undersigned and it shall be
paid over or credited to the undersigned to the extent of such additional
payments for which the undersigned has not been previously been reimbursed or

premium or penalty incurred by the Bank because of such change in interest rate.
