Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On February 18, 2015 our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan designed to improve our operational efficiency and overall profitability. The restructuring plan was announced to our employees on February 20, 2015. The restructuring primarily relates to aspects of our services business.

Under the plan we expect to eliminate between 25-30 employment positions in the current fiscal quarter that ends March 31, 2015. These position eliminations are expected to impact primarily jobs associated with selling and developing broad based end-to-end Internet of Things solutions that are not related to sales of our own hardware products. We are also taking steps to rationalize the number of employees who are dedicated to delivering CRM implementation services so this business is scaled appropriately to current and expected levels of revenue.

In connection with the restructuring plan we expect to incur charges of approximately $400,000 to $500,000 in the current fiscal quarter that ends March 31, 2015. The charges consist almost entirely of cash compensation expense associated with the elimination of employment positions as described above.

We previously announced plans to close our facility in India. The restructuring plan described above as well as the India facility closure are expected to result in total annualized savings of approximately $4 million to $5 million.
