Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 25, 1994, and Amendment No. 1 thereto on Form 10-K/A dated August 7, 1995, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"); b.

The description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed September 14, 1979, under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description. All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold, or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement, and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Not applicable. ITEM 5. INTEREST OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL Not applicable. 2 ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS The Delaware General Corporation Law provides for the indemnification of officers and directors under certain conditions. The Bylaws of the Registrant permit indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition, the Registrant is bound by agreements with certain of its directors and officers which obligate it to indemnify such persons in various circumstances. The Registrant has in effect a director and officer liability insurance policy indemnifying the Registrant and the officers and directors of the Registrant and officers and directors of the Registrant's subsidiaries within a specific limit for certain liabilities incurred by them, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933. The Registrant pays the entire premium of this policy. The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision which eliminates the personal liability of directors of the Registrant for monetary damages for certain breaches of fiduciary duty, as permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED Not applicable. ITEM 8. EXHIBITS See Index to Exhibits. ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. 3 Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. 4 SIGNATURES ---------- Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in Sunnyvale, California, on this 13th day of February, 1996.

Payroll Deductions (a) At the time a participant files his subscription agreement, he shall elect to have payroll deductions made on each payday during the Offering Period at a rate not exceeding ten percent (10%) of the Compensation which he would otherwise receive on such payday, provided that the aggregate of such payroll deductions during the Offering Period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the aggregate Compensation which he would otherwise have received during said Offering Period.

(b) All payroll deductions authorized by a participant shall be credited to his account under the Plan. A participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

The fair market value of the Corporation's Common Stock on said dates shall be the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange for such date, or if no sale is made on such date, the corresponding closing price on the first preceding date on which the Corporation's Common Stock was sold. 2 (d) Any excess contributions remaining in the Employee's account after the purchase of the shares on the Purchase Date will be returned to the employee, or may be credited against future payroll deductions. 8. Exercise of Option. Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in paragraph 10, his option for the purchase of shares will be exercised automatically for the number of whole shares which the accumulated payroll deductions in his account could purchase at the applicable option price on the Purchase Date. During his lifetime, a participant's option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him. Options granted with respect to the initial Offering Period of April 1, 1991 through July 31, 1991 shall not be exercisable unless stockholders approve this Plan prior to February 12, 1992. 9. Delivery.

All of the participant's payroll deductions credited to his account will be paid to him promptly after receipt of his notice of withdrawal, his option for the current period will be automatically cancelled, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares will be made during the Offering Period. (b) Upon termination of the participant's employment for any reason, including retirement, permanent disability or death, the payroll deductions credited to his account will be returned to him or, in the case of his death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under paragraph 14, and his option will be automatically canceled. (c) In the event an Employee fails to remain in the continuous employ of the Corporation or its subsidiaries for customarily at least twenty (20) hours per week during an Offering Period, he will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to his account will be returned to him and his option cancelled; provided that a participant who goes on an unpaid leave of absence shall be permitted to remain in the Plan with respect to an Offering Period which commenced prior to the beginning of such leave of absence. If such participant is not guaranteed reemployment by contract or statute and the leave of absence extends beyond 90 days, such participant shall be deemed to have terminated employment on the 91st day of such leave of absence. Payroll deductions for a participant who has been on an unpaid leave of absence will resume at the same rate as in effect prior to such leave upon return to work unless changed by such participant or unless the participant has been on an unpaid leave of absence either throughout an entire Offering Period or for more than ninety (90) days, in which cases the participant shall not be permitted to re-enter the Plan until a subscription agreement is filed with respect to a subsequent Offering Period which commences after such participant has returned to work from the unpaid leave of absence.

In addition, the officers of the Corporation are authorized to acquire shares of the Corporation's Common Stock in the open market for resale under this Plan. If the total number of shares which would otherwise be subject to options granted pursuant to paragraph 7(a) hereof at the Option Grant Date exceeds the number of shares then available under the Plan (after deduction of all shares for which options have been exercised or are then outstanding), the Corporation shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares remaining available for option grant in as uniform and equitable a manner as is practicable. In such event, the Corporation may reduce the rate of payroll deductions as appropriate. (b) The participant will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by his option until such option has been exercised. (c) Shares to be delivered to a participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the participant. 13. Administration.

(d) All costs and expenses incurred in administering the Plan shall be paid by the Corporation. The Board or the Committee, if any is appointed, may request advice or assistance or employ such other persons as are necessary for proper administration of the Plan. 14. Designation of Beneficiary. (a) A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant's account under the Plan in the event of such participant's death subsequent to the Purchase Date but prior to delivery to him of such shares and cash.
