Item 8.01      Other Events
On September 30, 2005, the Company reached agreement with its third party manufacturer of certain base station subsystems products and with the supplier of a defective component incorporated in these products manufactured for the Company during calendar years 2003 and 2004. Under these agreements, the Company received cash payments of $2.75 million on September 30, 2005. The agreements also provide for additional payments of $3.25 million by September 30, 2006. In addition, the Company’s third party manufacturer agreed to new terms for repair and manufacture of these products through August 31, 2006.
As previously disclosed, the Company accrued $19.8 million in its quarter ended March 31, 2005 to implement a program to proactively recall potentially affected products that had been sold to customers and installed in the field. The Company is currently evaluating the accounting treatment of these settlement agreements, which were not anticipated in guidance previously provided by the Company with respect to financial results for the quarter ending September 30, 2005.
