Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
The Reporting Persons purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.  Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.
 
On April 16, 2015, the Reporting Persons issued an open letter to stockholders of the Issuer, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. In the letter, the Reporting Persons stated that over the past seven years certain of the Reporting Persons have attempted to maintain a constructive and cordial relationship with the Issuer’s management and Board to discuss their value improvement recommendations and serious concerns regarding, among other things, the Issuer’s business strategy, underperformance, strategic alternatives review process, poor capital allocation decisions, executive compensation, bloated expenses, and poor corporate governance practices, all for the purpose of helping to fundamentally improve the business of the Issuer.  In the letter, the Reporting Persons expressed their profound disappointment with the outcome of their engagement with the Issuer and the current Board’s apparent failure to protect and enhance stockholder value.  The Reporting Persons also expressed their belief that the problematic status quo and troubling underperformance at the Issuer is largely a result of a failure of the Board and that new leadership is not only warranted, but long overdue.

To that end, the Reporting Persons stated in the letter that they expect to file preliminary proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with their efforts to solicit support to elect five new, highly-qualified director nominees to the Board at the Issuer’s 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”).  The Reporting Persons further stated in the letter that despite the Issuer’s multiple-failed attempts to sell the business since 2008, continually falling short of executing several different business plans, the ongoing operating losses and the alarming cash depletion, the Reporting Persons remain confident that under the right leadership and direction the Issuer can generate significant value for stockholders.  The Reporting Persons believe the most effective way to enhance stockholder value and to restore investor confidence is by immediately reconstituting the Board with its five seasoned, professional business leaders who have deep, relevant operational and industry experience.

On March 4, 2015, Catalysis Partners delivered a letter to the Issuer nominating Richard A. Karp, Brent S. Morrison, Damien J. Park, Norman J. Rice, III and Kenneth H. Traub (collectively, the “Nominees”) for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting.  The Nominees are highly qualified candidates with relevant credentials and skill-sets who can be extremely helpful in evaluating and executing on initiatives to unlock value at the Issuer, as evidenced by their bios below.

Karp is a cost-conscious, savvy business professional with extensive operating experience at numerous technology companies.  Mr. Karp received a B.S. degree in science from the California Institute of Technology, a M.S. degree in mathematics from the University of Wisconsin, and a Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford University.  Subsequent to this, Mr. Karp managed several private and publicly-traded companies, including Catapult Communications, a manufacturer of telecom test equipment, which he founded in 1985 and took through its IPO before it was sold to Ixia (Nasdaq: XXIA) in 2009 for $105 million.  Mr. Karp has also served as a Director of Novatel Wireless, Inc.
