Positions in shares of Common Stock may be held in margin accounts and may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts. Since other securities may be held in such margin accounts, it may not be possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase shares of Common Stock.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Persons believe the securities of the Issuer are significantly undervalued and represent an attractive investment opportunity. The Reporting Persons believe that there are numerous opportunities to maximize shareholder value and the Reporting Persons have engaged, and intend to continue to engage in a dialogue with the Issuer's management, Board of Directors, other shareholders or third parties, including potential acquirers, service providers and financing sources, regarding the Issuer's business, operations, strategies, plans, strategic transactions (including the pending transaction between the Issuer and Qualcomm pursuant to the Purchase Agreement between the Issuer and Qualcomm River Holdings B.V., dated October 27, 2016 (the "Qualcomm Transaction")) and related matters.

Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of securities of the Issuer at prices that would make the purchase or sale of such securities desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor (i) to increase or decrease their respective positions in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of securities of the Issuer on the open market or in private transactions, including through a trading plan created under Rule 10b5-1(c) or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable and/or (ii) to enter into transactions that increase or hedge their economic exposure to the Common Stock without affecting their beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock.

No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon or in connection with completion of, or following, any of the actions discussed herein.

The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and may from time to time in the future express their views to and/or meet with management, the Board, other shareholders or third parties, including potential acquirers, service providers and financing sources, and/or formulate plans or proposals regarding the Issuer, its assets or its securities. Such plans or proposals may include one or more plans that relate to or would result in any of the actions set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
