Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On June 11, 2010, our Board of Directors approved the implementation of a restructuring and cost reduction plan (the “2010 Plan”) that will include severance and related costs for the reduction of approximately 10% of our workforce, and fees associated with the acceleration of the closure of our Carlsbad, California facility in the range of $500,000 to $850,000. The 2010 Plan is designed to better align our resources in order to lower our breakeven point. The majority of the activities comprising the 2010 Plan are expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2010. We expect to record severance costs in the range of $300,000 to $500,000 and we expect to record facility reduction costs in the range of $200,000 to $350,000 in connection with the 2010 Plan.

We also expect to incur additional costs in the range of $700,000 to $1.0 million associated with our previously adopted 2008 restructuring plan, as we exited an additional portion of our Carlsbad, California facility and revised our estimated cash flows for the sublease of such facility in the second quarter of 2010. We expect to pay the majority of these costs over the remainder of the lease term ending in April 2013.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On June 11, 2010, and as part of the 2010 Plan, our Board of Directors approved a 10% reduction in the annual base salaries of Dana W. Kammersgard, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Hanif I. Jamal, our Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary, from $400,000 to $360,000 and from $310,000 to $279,000, respectively, effective as of July 1, 2010.

Also on June 11, 2010, and as part of the 2010 Plan, our Board of Directors terminated our 2010 Executive Compensation Plan and the 2010 “stretch” cash bonus plan, the terms of which set forth incentive compensation for fiscal year 2010 for our executive officers and certain other specified employees.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 11, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a 10% reduction in the annual base salaries of certain of our vice-president level employees and a 5% reduction in the annual base salaries of certain of our employees below the vice-president level.

On June 15, 2010, we issued a press release providing financial guidance for the second quarter of 2010 and our management held a conference call for investors during which it presented a corporate overview and related matters. A copy of the press release and the prepared remarks and presentation materials are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
