VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2011
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2012. The balance sheet at January 31, 2011, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011 (“Form 10-K”). All references to the “Company” refer to Virco Mfg. Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Note 2. Seasonality
The market for educational furniture is marked by extreme seasonality, with over 50% of the Company’s total sales typically occurring from June to September each year, which is the Company’s peak season. Hence, the Company typically builds and carries significant amounts of inventory during and in anticipation of this peak summer season to facilitate the rapid delivery requirements of customers in the educational market. This requires a large up-front investment in inventory, labor, storage and related costs as inventory is built in anticipation of peak sales during the summer months. As the capital required for this build-up generally exceeds cash available from operations, the Company has historically relied on third-party bank financing to meet cash flow requirements during the build-up period immediately preceding the peak season.
In addition, the Company typically is faced with a large balance of accounts receivable during the peak season. This occurs for two primary reasons. First, accounts receivable balances typically increase during the peak season as shipments of products increase. Second, many customers during this period are government institutions, which tend to pay accounts receivable more slowly than commercial customers.
The Company’s working capital requirements during and in anticipation of the peak summer season require management to make estimates and judgments that affect assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to market demand, labor costs, and stocking inventory.
Note 3. New Accounting Standards
There were no accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company in the first quarter of 2011.
Note 4. Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods of manufactured products. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market and consist of materials, labor, and overhead. The Company determines the cost of inventory by the first-in, first-out method. The value of inventory includes any related production overhead costs incurred in bringing the inventory to its present location and condition. The Company records the cost of excess capacity as a period expense, not as a component of capitalized inventory valuation. Management continually monitors production costs, material costs, and inventory levels to determine that the interim inventories are fairly stated. The Company records the cost of excess capacity as a period expense, not as a component of capitalized inventory valuation.
Management continually monitors production costs, material costs and inventory levels to determine that interim inventories are fairly stated.
Note 5. Debt
At April 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding borrowings pursuant to its revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank of $19,140,000. The revolving line typically provided for advances of up to 80% on eligible accounts receivable and 20% — 55% on eligible inventory, subject to the specific terms of the facility. The advance rates fluctuates depending on the time of year and the types of assets. The revolving credit facility will mature on June 30, 2012, with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Wells Fargo Bank’s prime rate plus 1.25%. The agreement had an unused commitment fee of 0.375% as of April 30, 2011. Availability under the line was $9,528,000 at April 30, 2011.
The terms of the revolving line of credit are set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Agreement”), dated as of March 12, 2008, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement has been amended from time to time to modify covenants or other terms and conditions. Subsequent to the first quarter of 2011, effective May 31, 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No. 8, which extended the maturity date of the loan to June 30, 2012. No other terms were modified in this agreement.

Table of Contents

The revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank is subject to financial covenants that include a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum net income requirement. The agreement also places certain restrictions on capital expenditures, incurrence of indebtedness and liens, dividends and the repurchase of the Company’s common stock. The revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiary, including the Company’s accounts receivable, inventories, equipment and real property. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at April 30, 2011.
Management believes that the carrying value of debt approximated fair value at April 30, 2011 and 2010, as all of the long-term debt bears interest at variable rates based on prevailing market conditions.
The descriptions set forth herein of the Agreement and Amendments are qualified in their entirety by the terms of such agreements, each of which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Note 6. Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on this consideration, the Company determined the realization of a majority of the net deferred tax assets no longer met the more likely than not criteria and a valuation allowance was recorded against the majority of the net deferred tax assets at April 30, 2011 and January 31, 2011. The effective tax rate of 21.8 percent in the first quarter ended April 30, 2010 was impacted by the forecasted profit levels for the respective years and discrete items associated with non-taxable permanent differences.
The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS’’) has completed the examination of all federal income tax returns through 2008 with no issues pending or unresolved. The years 2009 and 2010 remain open for examination by the IRS. The years 2006 through 2010 remain open for examination by state tax authorities. The Company is not currently under state examination.
The specific timing of when the resolution of each tax position will be reached is uncertain. As of January 31, 2011, we do not believe that there are any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

Certain exercisable and non-exercisable stock options were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share at April 30, 2011 and 2010, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The number of stock options outstanding, which met this anti-dilutive criterion for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, was 140,000 and 127,000, respectively.
Note 8. Stock Based Compensation
Stock Incentive Plans
The Company’s two stock plans are the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) and the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1997 Plan”). Under the 2007 Plan, the Company may grant an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares to its employees and non-employee directors in the form of stock options or awards. Restricted stock or stock units awarded under the 2007 Plan are expensed ratably over the vesting period of the awards. The Company determines the fair value of its restricted stock unit awards and related compensation expense as the difference between the market value of the awards on the date of grant less the exercise price of the awards granted. The Company did not issue any grants during the quarter ended April 30, 2011. As of April 30, 2011, there were approximately 200,160 shares available for future issuance under the 2007 Plan.
The 1997 Plan expired in 2007 and had 12,100 unexercised options outstanding at April 30, 2011. Stock options awarded to employees under the 1997 Plan had to be at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Stock options generally have a maximum term of 10 years and generally become exercisable ratably over a five-year period.

Stockholders’ Rights
On October 15, 1996, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (the “Rights”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock. Each of the Rights entitles a stockholder to purchase for an exercise price of $50.00 ($20.70, as adjusted for stock splits and stock dividends), subject to adjustment, one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock of the Company, or under certain circumstances, shares of common stock of the Company or a successor company with a market value equal to two times the exercise price. The Rights are not exercisable, and would only become exercisable for all other persons when any person has acquired or commences to acquire a beneficial interest of at least 20% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Rights have no voting privileges, and may be redeemed by the Board of Directors at a price of $.001 per Right at any time prior to the acquisition of a beneficial ownership of 20% of the outstanding common stock. There are 200,000 shares (483,153 shares as adjusted by stock splits and stock dividends) of Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Rights. On July 31, 2007, the Company and Mellon Investor Services LLC entered into an amendment to the Rights Agreement governing the Rights. The amendment, among other things, extended the term of the Rights issued under the Rights Agreement to October 25, 2016, removed the dead-hand provisions from the Rights Agreement, and formally replaced the former Rights Agent, The Chase Manhattan Bank, with its successor-in-interest, Mellon Investor Services LLC.
Note 9. Comprehensive Loss and Stockholders’ Equity
Comprehensive loss for the three months ended April 30, 2011 and 2010 was the same as net loss reported on the Statements of Operations. Accumulated other comprehensive loss at April 30, 2011 and 2010 and January 31, 2011 is composed of minimum pension liability adjustments.
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. As of April 30, 2011, $1.1 million remained available for repurchases of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors.
Note 10. Retirement Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries cover all employees under a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan, entitled the Virco Employees’ Retirement Plan (the “Employees Retirement Plan”). Benefits under the Employees Retirement Plan are based on years of service and career average earnings. As more fully described in the Form 10-K, benefit accruals under the Employees Retirement Plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003.
The Company also provides a supplementary retirement plan for certain key employees, the VIP Retirement Plan (the “VIP Plan”). The VIP Plan provides a benefit of up to 50% of average compensation for the last five years in the VIP Plan, offset by benefits earned under the Employees Retirement Plan. As more fully described in the Form 10-K, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003.
The Company also provides a non-qualified plan for non-employee directors of the Company (the “Non-Employee Directors Retirement Plan”). The Non-Employee Directors Retirement Plan provides a lifetime annual retirement benefit equal to the director’s annual retainer fee for the fiscal year in which the director terminates his or her position with the Board, subject to the director providing 10 years of service to the Company. As more fully described in the Form 10-K, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003.

The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based upon both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. The majority of the Company’s products sold through January 31, 2005, carry a five-year warranty. Effective February 1, 2005, the Company extended its standard warranty period to 10 years. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. The warranty liability is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Note 12. Subsequent Events
We have evaluated subsequent events to assess the need for potential recognition or disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such events were evaluated through the date these financial statements were issued. Based upon this evaluation, it was determined that, except for the amendment to the revolving line of credit in Note 5, no subsequent events occurred that required recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
For the three months ended April 30, 2011, the Company incurred a pre-tax loss of $5,372,000 on net sales of $24,256,000 compared to a pre-tax loss of $6,494,000 on net sales of $24,860,000 in the same period last year.
Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2011 decreased by $604,000, a 2.4% decrease, compared to the same period last year. This decrease was the result of a modest increase in selling prices, combined with a reduction in unit volume. Unit volume declined largely as a result of general economic conditions, which negatively impacted tax receipts and the funded status of public schools. Incoming orders for the same period decreased by approximately 21.7% compared to the prior year. Backlog at April 30, 2011 decreased by approximately 14.7% compared to the prior year.
Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased to 27.9% for the three months ended April 30, 2011 compared to 25.2% in the same period last year. The improvement in gross margin was attributable to a modest increase in selling prices, a 3.5% increase in production hours combined with cost reductions which favorably affected overhead absorption, and a reduction in factory spending.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2011, decreased by approximately $596,000 compared to the same period last year, and decreased as a percentage of sales by 1.2%. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was attributable to a reduction in variable selling and service costs due to the reduced volume of shipments in addition to the impact of cost reduction initiatives implemented in the fourth quarter of 2010.
In the first quarter of 2011 the Company did not record an income tax benefit. During the fourth quarter of 2010 the Company established a valuation allowance on the majority of deferred tax assets. Because of this valuation allowance the effective income tax expense / (benefit) is expected to be relatively low, with income tax expense / (benefit) being primarily attributable to alternative minimum taxes combined with income and franchise taxes required by various states.
During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company initiated a variety of cost controls which enabled improved operating results in the first quarter despite a modest reduction in revenue. The cost controls initiated in the prior year will not be adequate if order rates continue at the current rate. The Company continues to aggressively pursue all profitable business in our market, and we continue to bring new products to market in an effort to gain market share. In response to the reduction in orders, the Company is evaluating different methods to reduce our cost structure and control spending. The seasonal nature of our business will allow us to control our inventory levels this summer, and we have already taken measures to establish production levels appropriate to this summer’s anticipated business activity.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Interest expense decreased by approximately $19,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2011, compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower loan balances under the Company’s credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank.
Accounts receivable was lower at April 30, 2011 than at April 30, 2010, due to decreased days sales outstanding. The Company traditionally builds large quantities of inventory during the first quarter of each fiscal year in anticipation of seasonally high summer shipments. The Company started the current fiscal year with $8,200,000 less inventory than in the prior year. For the current fiscal quarter, the Company increased inventory by approximately $16,130,000 compared to January 31, 2011. This increase was slightly more than the $14,163,000 increase in 2010, but because the Company started the year with substantially less inventory, at the end of the first quarter inventory decreased by approximately $6,250,000 compared to April 30, 2010. The increase in inventory during the first quarter of 2011 compared to the January 31, 2011, was financed through the Company’s credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank.
Borrowings under the Company’s revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank at April 30, 2011 decreased by approximately $3,000,000 compared to April 30, 2010, primarily due to decreased levels of inventory and receivables. The Company established a goal of limiting capital spending to less than $3,000,000 for fiscal year 2011, which is less than the Company’s anticipated depreciation expense. Capital spending for the three months ended April 30, 2011 was $803,000 compared to $679,000 for the same period last year. Capital expenditures are being financed through the Company’s credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank and operating cash flow.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended April 30, 2011, was $12,243,000 compared to $14,132,000 for the same period last year. The decrease in cash used was primarily attributable to a decrease in the pre-tax loss for the quarter and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities offset slightly by an increase in the amount of inventory acquired during the quarter.
The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the Company’s unused borrowing capacity with Wells Fargo will be sufficient to fund the Company’s debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next twelve months. Approximately $9,528,000 was available for borrowing as of April 30, 2011.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, there were no material changes in the Company’s off balance sheet arrangements or contractual obligations and commercial commitments from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011 (“Form 10-K”).

Forward-Looking Statements
From time to time, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 30, 2011, the Company or its representatives have made and may make forward-looking statements, orally or in writing, including those contained herein. Such forward-looking statements may be included in, without limitation, reports to stockholders, press releases, oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer of the Company and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The words or phrases “anticipates,” “expects,” “will continue,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The results contemplated by the Company’s forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary materially from anticipated results, including without limitation, availability of funding for educational institutions, material availability and cost of materials, especially steel, availability and cost of labor, demand for the Company’s products, competitive conditions affecting selling prices and margins, capital costs and general economic conditions. Such risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail in the Company’s Form 10-K.
The Company’s forward-looking statements represent its judgment only on the dates such statements were made. By making any forward-looking statements, the Company assumes no duty to update them to reflect new, changed or unanticipated events or circumstances.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company is party to that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Agreement”), dated as of March 12, 2008, with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement has been amended from time to time to modify covenants or other terms and conditions. Subsequent to the first quarter of 2011, effective May 31, 2011, the Company entered into Amendment No. 8, which extended the maturity date of the loan to June 30, 2012.
The Agreement provides the Company with a secured revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Credit”) of up to $45,000,000, with seasonal adjustments to the credit limit and subject to borrowing base limitations. The Revolving Credit includes a letter of credit sub-facility with a sub-limit of up to $2,500,000 and is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the personal and real property of the Company and its subsidiaries in favor of the Lender. The Revolving Credit is an asset-based line of credit that is subject to a borrowing base limitation and generally provides for advances of up to 80% on eligible accounts receivable and up to 20-55% of eligible inventory, with exceptions and modifications as provided in the Agreement. The Agreement is also subject to an annual clean down provision requiring a 30-day period each fiscal year during which advances and letter of credit usage may not exceed $7,500,000 in the aggregate.
The Revolving Credit will mature on March 1, 2012, with interest payable monthly at a fluctuating rate equal to the Lender’s prime rate plus 1.25%. The Agreement provides for an unused commitment fee of 0.375%. At April 30, 2011, availability under the Revolving Credit line was $9,528,000.
The Revolving Credit is subject to various financial covenants including a maximum leverage amount and a minimum net income requirement. The Agreement also provides for certain additional negative covenants, including restrictions on capital expenditures, new operating leases, dividends and the repurchase of the Company’s common stock. The Company was in compliance with its covenants at April 30, 2011. Management believes that the carrying value of debt approximated fair value at April 30, 2011 and 2010, as all of the long-term debt bears interest at variable rates based on prevailing market conditions.
The descriptions set forth herein of the Agreement and amendments are qualified in their entirety by the terms of such agreements, each of which has been filed with the Commission.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures necessarily involves the exercise of judgment by management, and such controls and procedures, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance that management’s objectives in establishing them will be achieved.
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer along with its Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon the foregoing, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer along with the Company’s Principal Financial Officer concluded that, subject to the limitations noted in this Part I, Item 4, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company has various legal actions pending against it arising in the ordinary course of business, which in the opinion of the Company, are not material in that management either expects that the Company will be successful on the merits of the pending cases or that any liabilities resulting from such cases will be substantially covered by insurance. While it is impossible to estimate with certainty the ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to these suits and claims, management believes that the aggregate amount of such liabilities will not be material to the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of the Company.

HAND DELIVERED
MR. LARRY O. WONDER
Re: SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS
Dear Larry:
     This letter will serve as the Separation Agreement and General Release of all Claims (the “Agreement”) between you and Virco. As used in this Agreement, the term “Virco” or “Company” shall include Virco Mfg. Corporation, its divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates, and past, present or future officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives.
     You have been employed by Virco for over 30 years and presently serve as its Vice President of Sales. We have agreed that it is in the mutual interest of you and the Company for Virco to accept your voluntary resignation of employment. By signing this Agreement and in consideration of certain compensation and benefits offered by Virco, you are agreeing to the commitments set forth below. This Agreement will fully and finally conclude the employment relationship between you and Virco on the terms and conditions that follow:
     1. Resignation. You have submitted and Virco has accepted your voluntary resignation as both an employee and an officer of the Company, effective June 30, 2011. You understand and agree that, in return for a portion of the consideration described below, you forever waive any claim you may have for re-employment.
     2. Severance Payment. In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, you will receive a lump sum severance payment of One Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand, Nine Hundred Thirty-Five Dollars and 75 Cents ($166,935.75), less applicable payroll taxes and deductions, which is the equivalent of twenty-five (25) months of monthly benefits from the Virco Important Performers (“VIP”) Pension Plan, to bridge the gap between your resignation on June 30, 2011 and your full retirement date of July 31, 2013.
     3. Health Care Coverage. As you are currently enrolled in Virco’s medical, dental and vision insurance plans, you are eligible to continue such coverage in accordance with COBRA upon your separation of employment. In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, you will receive a lump sum payment in the amount of Two Thousand Dollars ($2000.00), net of applicable payroll taxes and deductions, that you may use toward medical, dental and/or vision insurance premiums through COBRA or another source, or for any other purpose of your choosing. Virco represents that this amount is sufficient to cover the cost of medical, dental and vision insurance premiums for an individual subscriber through COBRA for four (4) months at Virco’s present rates. You understand and agree that, should COBRA insurance premiums increase at any time after the Effective Date of this Agreement, you will not be entitled to additional funds or other consideration from Virco as a result.
     4. Company Car. In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, you will receive a lump sum payment, net of applicable payroll taxes and deductions, in an amount sufficient to purchase your Company car for its fair market value as determined by Virco’s fleet provider. Virco represents that such payment will be adequate to cover estimated sales taxes and transfer fees in connection with the vehicle purchase.
     5. Executive Outplacement Services. In consideration of your acceptance of this Agreement, Virco will pay you a lump sum of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00), net of applicable payroll taxes and deductions, in lieu of providing outplacement services. You understand and agree that you will be solely responsible for the selection, acquisition and payment of any such services.
     6. Vested Benefits. You will receive payment of any unused accrued vacation, less applicable payroll taxes and deductions. Any vested benefits you may have under Virco’s 401(k) plan, the Virco Important Performers (“VIP”) pension plan, the Virco Mfg. Corporation Employees Retirement Plan, or other such Company benefit plans or agreements will be payable in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of such plans or agreements.
     7. Bonus. You understand and agree that you are not entitled to receive any bonus or prorated bonus that may be distributed to Virco employees pursuant to any policy, practice or plan of the Company on or after the separation of your employment.
     8. Release of all Claims. You represent that you do not currently have pending before any Court or government agency any dispute of any kind against Virco. In consideration of the various payments and benefits provided to you under the terms of this Agreement, you hereby release and forever discharge Virco from any and all claims, causes of action, demands, rights, damages, liability, costs or expenses, of every kind and description, whether known or unknown, arising at any time prior to your signing of this Agreement, including but not limited to those arising out of or in any way connected, directly or indirectly, with your employment and/or separation from employment with Virco. This release is intended as a general release, including all claims whatsoever, whether arising under local, state or federal laws of the United States of America or any other country and whether founded upon contract, tort, statute or regulation, wrongful discharge or discrimination, and specifically including, but not limited to, claims under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the federal Americans With Disabilities Act; the federal Family and Medical Leave Act; and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This waiver of rights and release of claims is knowing and voluntary. The invalidity in whole or in part of any provision of this release shall not affect the validity of any other provision.
The remainder of this page has been left blank intentionally.

 


 

     9. Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542. The disputes released by you herein include any and all disputes, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, past or present, and whether or not they are attributable to circumstances arising out of or related to your employment with Virco or the separation of your employment. Specifically, you waive any and all rights under California Civil Code Section 1542, which reads in full as follows:
Section 1542. General Release. A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially altered his settlement with the debtor.
     You acknowledge that you have separately bargained with Virco for the foregoing waiver of Section 1542.
     10. No Admission of Liability. You and Virco acknowledge and agree that nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be construed as an admission of any alleged liability or wrongdoing by the other.
     11. Non-Solicitation. You agree that, for a period of two (2) years after the date of this Agreement, you will not induce or attempt to induce any employee of Virco to leave the employ of Virco or in any way interfere with the relationship between Virco and its employees.
     12. References. If asked about your separation of employment, you and Virco will state that you voluntarily resigned. Should a prospective employer wish to verify your employment with Virco, you agree to direct such inquiries to Virco’s Corporate Director of Human Resources (presently Ms. Margie McEntire) and to no other person. In response to such inquiries, Virco will confirm your voluntary resignation, dates of employment, positions held, and your final salary. If asked for further information, Virco will state that Company policy precludes the release of additional data.
     13. Confidential Information. You acknowledge that in the course of your employment with Virco you have had access to confidential or proprietary information related to Virco’s business. You further acknowledge that you have been and will continue to be under an obligation not to disclose such confidential or proprietary information to any third party unless (a) disclosure is required by law; (b) such information shall have become generally known outside Virco through no action of your own; or (c) you obtain written permission from Virco’s President or Executive Vice President.
     “Confidential or proprietary information” includes, but is not limited to, financial statements, marketing plans, product research and development, sales plans, ideas or other information regarding Virco’s objectives and strategies and any information about the business and practices of Virco that was obtained during your course of employment with the Company. You agree that any documents in your possession including such information shall be expeditiously returned to Virco. You agree that any breach or threatened breach of this provision would cause irreparable harm to Virco, that no adequate remedy exists at law or in damages for such a breach or threatened breach, and that Virco shall be entitled to an immediate injunction or restraining order in addition to any other remedies that may be available by law or equity.
     14. Disposition of Company Property. Any Company-owned property in your possession, including any office equipment or other items, shall be delivered promptly to a designated Company representative. You agree to immediately discontinue the use of any credit cards issued to you by or through Virco and to return any such credit cards to an authorized Virco representative. In addition, you agree to promptly submit any expense reports required to account for outstanding charges and to cooperate in the process of reconciling any such charges with your expense reports.
     15. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.
     16. Jurisdiction. You agree that any dispute arising under this Agreement shall be filed, heard and decided in Los Angeles County. You also agree to subject yourself to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the identified courts regardless of where you may be located at the time of the proceeding.
     17. Review and Consultation. You are advised to consult an attorney before executing this Agreement. Upon execution you acknowledge that you have had sufficient opportunity to review the Agreement and to consult with advisors and attorneys of your choice concerning its terms and conditions. Execution of this Agreement further acknowledges your full and complete understanding of the terms and their significance, and that those terms have been accepted freely and voluntarily, thereby binding you and your heirs, successors, personal representatives and assigns.
     18. Period for Consideration or Revocation. Virco will provide you with a period of twenty-one (21) days from the date this Agreement is first presented to you in which to consider it. In the event that you execute this Agreement prior to the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day period, you agree that you have freely elected to waive any remaining part of the consideration period. For a period of seven (7) days following the execution of this Agreement, you may revoke it by notifying Virco’s President or Executive Vice President in writing.
     19. Effective Date. If not revoked in the manner described in Paragraph 18, above, this Agreement will become effective on the eighth calendar day following its execution (the “Effective Date” of this Agreement).
The remainder of this page has been left blank intentionally.

 


 

     20. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties and there are no additional promises, representations, assurances, terms or provisions between the parties other than those specifically set forth herein. This Agreement may not be amended except in writing signed by you and either Virco’s President or Executive Vice President.
     If you agree with the foregoing, please execute both of the enclosed original copies of this letter and return one to Virco’s President or Executive Vice President.
         
  Very truly yours,

VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
