Item 5. Other Events.

     On February 20, 2003, Applied Microsystems Corporation (the “Company”) released information on its tentative liquidation timeframe and recent measures taken by the Company to reduce its expenses pending liquidation and dissolution.

     The Company has reduced its work force to nine full-time personnel, terminated the employment of three executive employees, and moved its offices to a much smaller facility under a month-to-month lease arrangement.

     The Company announced that March 21, 2003 has been set by the Company’s board of directors as the record date for a special meeting of shareholders to vote on a proposal to liquidate and dissolve the Company. The Company anticipates that the special meeting of shareholders will be held near the end of April 2003, although the meeting may be delayed if the SEC elects to review the Company’s proxy materials.

     A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the reduction in its expenses and the record date for the special meeting of shareholders is attached hereto as exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
