Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
 
On May 9, 2005, ViewSonic repriced all outstanding stock options held by ViewSonic’s employees, executive officers and members of the Board of Directors of record on March 2, 2005. As a result, the exercise price of all ViewSonic’s outstanding stock options subject to the re-pricing was lowered to $0.38 per share.  There was no change in the number of shares subject to each repriced stock option, vesting or other terms. The repricing was implemented in order to improve morale by realigning the cash and equity components of ViewSonic’s compensation programs for employees, executive officers and directors.  The following table presents summary information concerning the repricing of ViewSonic’s stock options.
