In the case of a special meeting, a notice of nomination must be delivered no later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the public announcement of the date of the special meeting.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On June 12, 2009, the Board of Directors of ISSI adopted the following ISSI Stockholder Rights Policy:

Consistent with its fiduciary duties, the ISSI Board is continually working with ISSI’s management to act in the best long-term interests of the company and its stockholders. The Board regularly reviews ISSI’s strategic plans and alternatives, as well as their potential value to ISSI and its stockholders under various scenarios. As part of these efforts, the Board has determined that in the event that ISSI is the target of coercive or abusive takeover tactics, including opportunistic bids which fail to adequately take into account the long-term value of ISSI, the Board may, subject to its fiduciary duties, adopt a stockholder rights plan.
