(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof ? [X] Yes [ ] No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

As a result of a significant decrease in recent business with a key Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) customer due to a product performance issue as previously disclosed, the Company anticipates reporting revenue for the fiscal third quarter ended December 1, 2007 of $32.1 million, compared to $59.1 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year. Because of this decrease in business with the key DBS customer, coupled with the recent substantial decline in the Company's market capitalization, the Company engaged an independent valuation specialist to conduct an interim goodwill impairment analysis as of December 1, 2007 in accordance with the applicable accounting rules. This analysis indicated that the Company's goodwill has been impaired, notwithstanding the fact that the Company entered into a settlement agreement with this key DBS customer on December 14, 2007. Based on this analysis, the Company expects to record a non-cash impairment charge in the range of $64 million to $68 million for the quarter ended December 1, 2007, which net of tax represents a charge in the range of $2.38 to $2.48 per diluted share. As a result of this impairment charge and the reduction of business with the key DBS customer, the Company expects to report substantially lower earnings in the quarter ended December 1, 2007 than the corresponding period of last fiscal year.

The Company has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
