FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Transition Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The statements
contained in this document that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements are statements regarding future events or our future performance, and include statements regarding projected operating results. These forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations, beliefs, intentions, strategies, forecasts and assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. These risks
include, but are not limited to: our ability to deploy our capital in a manner that maximizes stockholder value; the ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates or business and investment opportunities; the ability to monetize our remaining
assets including our building and patent portfolio; the inability to realize the benefits of our net operating losses; the possibility of being deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which may make it
difficult for us to complete future business combinations or acquisitions; the potential need to record additional impairment charges for long-lived assets or marketable securities based on current market conditions; the amount by which we expect to
reduce our annual operating expenses due to the Transition Period (as defined below) restructuring plan; the ability to reduce our operating costs; general economic conditions and our expected liquidity in future periods. We may identify these
statements by the use of words such as anticipate, believe, continue, could, estimate, expect, intend, may, might, plan,
potential, predict, project, should, will, would and other similar expressions. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us
on the date of this Transition Report on Form 10-K, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements, except as may otherwise be required by law.

Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section in
Part I, Item 1A of this Transition Report on Form 10-K and elsewhere in this document. In evaluating our business, current and prospective investors should consider carefully these factors in addition to the other information set forth in this
document.

PART I

Item 1.Business

Change in
Fiscal Year End

On December 7, 2010, our Board of Directors approved the change in our fiscal year end from
March 31 to December 31. As a result of this change, this Annual Report on Form 10-K is a transition report and includes financial information for the nine-month transition period from April 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010, or
Transition Period. References in this Transition Report on Form 10-K to fiscal year 2010 or fiscal 2010 refer to the period of April 1, 2009 through March 31, 2010 and references to fiscal year 2009 or fiscal 2009 refer to the period of
April 1, 2008 through March 31, 2009. Subsequent to this Transition Report on Form 10-K, our reports on Form 10-K will cover the calendar year from January 1 to December 31, with historical periods remaining unchanged.

General Information

We were incorporated in 1981 in California under the name Adaptec, Inc., or Adaptec, and completed our initial public offering in 1986. In March 1998, we reincorporated in Delaware. On June 22,
2010 we changed our name to ADPT Corporation, or ADPT, through a merger of ADPT, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adaptec, Inc., into Adaptec, Inc. Our principal executive offices are located at 691 South Milpitas Boulevard, Suite 208, Milpitas,
California 95035 and our telephone number at that location is (408) 945-8600. We also maintain our website at www.adptco.com. Information found on or accessible through our website is not part of and is not incorporated into, this
Transition Report on Form 10-K.

Description

Through September 30, 2010, we provided enterprise-class external storage products, including Application Specific Integrated Circuits, or ASICs, and software to Original Equipment Manufacturers, or
OEMs. Our current focus is primarily on capital redeployment and the identification of new, profitable business operations in which we can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our net operating losses, or NOLs, in the future.

Business Overview and Outlook

We continue to explore all strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value. On June 8, 2010, we consummated a transaction with PMC-Sierra Inc., or PMC-Sierra, in which PMC-Sierra purchased
certain assets related to our business of providing data storage hardware and software solutions and products, or the DPS Business, and PMC-Sierra assumed certain of our liabilities related to the DPS Business. This transaction was accounted for as
a discontinued operation in our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, we reclassified the financial statements and related disclosures for all periods presented, except for the historical Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated
Statements of Stockholders Equity. Unless otherwise indicated, the following discussion pertains only to our continuing operations.

In May 2010, at the time we entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement with PMC-Sierra, we evaluated whether to pursue the sale of the products and associated technology obtained from our acquisition of
Aristos Logic Corporation, or the Aristos Business, or to wind down the Aristos Business, in either case by the end of September 2010. As a result of these actions, we changed the remaining useful life of our intangible assets which materially
affected the amounts amortized prospectively based on the net book value at March 31, 2010. In addition, by the end of June 2010, we decided to wind down our Aristos Business and put our building up for sale in future quarters. As a result, we
evaluated the carrying value of our long-lived assets and determined that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable.

During September 2010, we fulfilled all orders for our remaining customers related to our Aristos Business. With no current operational business to support, we put our building up for sale. We continue to
manage corporate matters, which includes, evaluating and terminating various agreements and attempting to monetize our building and patent portfolio.

We remain committed to providing value to all of our stockholders and will aggressively pursue opportunities to deploy the cash and liquid assets on hand to create value for our stockholders including;
exploring acquisitions of businesses, maximizing the use of our NOLs, engaging in stock buybacks, paying cash dividends, or any combination thereof.

Except where noted, the discussion regarding our business in this Transition Report on Form 10-K is as of December 31, 2010.

Products

Historically, we sold Redundant Array of Independent Disks, or
RAID, Storage Processors, or RSPs, which were application specific integrated circuit, or ASIC, devices incorporating a collection of hardware engines that fully automated the operation of the data path and eliminated the performance bottlenecks
found in other silicon-based software RAID solutions. Our RSP products provided our customers with cost and energy efficiencies in data protection without compromising performance. Our primary markets included Blade Servers and External Storage
applications where high performance and high availability features were required.

Sales, Marketing and Customers

With the wind down of the Aristos Business by the end of September 2010, we ceased all sales and marketing activities and had no employees
working in such functions at December 31, 2010. Prior to and during the Transition Period, we sold our products through our sales force to OEMs worldwide who marketed our products under their brands. Our sales force focused on developing
relationships with customers and worked closely with them to design and integrate current and next generation products to meet the specific requirements

of end users. The sales process involved in gaining major design wins was complex, lengthy and expensive. In the Transition Period, Apple, Inc., or Apple, and International Business Machines, or
IBM, accounted for 59% and 35% of our total net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2010, Apple accounted for 92% of our total net revenues. In fiscal 2009, Apple and Xiotech Corporation, or Xiotech accounted for 70% and 14%, of our total net
revenues, respectively. We do not expect to record any revenues in future quarters, unless a business is acquired.

We
emphasized customer service as a key element of our marketing. This included assisting customers in the use of our products, and providing the systems-level expertise and software experience of our engineering staff to customers with particularly
difficult design problems. A high level of customer service was also maintained through technical support hotlines, email and dial-in-fax capabilities.

A summary of our net revenues and net property, plant and equipment by geographic area is set forth in Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8: Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data of this Transition Report on Form 10-K. During the Transition Period, all of our net revenues were derived from customers located in the Pacific Rim. These sales include sales to foreign subsidiaries of United
States companies.

Competition

The markets for our products were highly competitive and were characterized by rapid technological advances, new product introductions, evolving industry and customer standards and competitive pricing
pressures.

We believed the principal competitive factors in the markets for our products were product price versus
performance, product features and functionality, reliability, technical service and support, scalability and interoperability and brand awareness. We competed primarily with ASIC product offerings from LSI Corporation, or LSI, Marvell Technology
Group LTD and PMC-Sierra.

Backlog

As a result of the wind down of the Aristos Business during the Transition Period, there was no backlog at December 31, 2010. Historically, we typically received orders for our products within two
weeks or less of the desired delivery date, and most orders were subject to rescheduling and/or cancellation with little or no penalty. In light of industry practice and experience, we did not believe that backlog at any given time was a meaningful
indicator of our ability to achieve any particular level of revenue or financial performance.

Manufacturing

We outsourced the manufacturing of our products to LSI. Advanced Semiconductor Engineering warehoused and shipped our products on our
behalf.

Intellectual Property

We seek to establish and maintain our proprietary rights in our technology through the use of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret laws. As of December 31, 2010, we had 250 issued
patents, expiring between February 2011 and November 2028, covering various aspects of our technologies. In connection with the sale of the DPS Business, PMC-Sierra received a non-exclusive royalty free license for the patents that were retained by
us. We believe our patents and other intellectual property rights have value and we will continue to explore alternatives for maximizing the value of our patent portfolio. We also seek to maintain our trade secrets and confidential information by
non-disclosure policies and through the use of appropriate confidentiality agreements.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses primarily consisted of salaries and related costs of employees engaged in ongoing research, design and
development activities and subcontracting costs. With the wind down of the Aristos Business by the end of September 2010, we ceased all research and development activities and had no

##### Table of Contents

employees working in such functions at December 31, 2010. Approximately 58% of our employees were engaged in research and development at March 31, 2010 as compared to 49% at
March 31, 2009. Our research and development expenses were $5.4 million, or 61% of total net revenues, $17.3 million, or 418% of total net revenues and $12.4 million, or 452% of total net revenues, for the Transition Period and fiscal
years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Environmental Laws

Certain of our operations involved the use of substances regulated under various federal, state and international environmental laws. It is our policy to apply strict standards for environmental
protection to sites inside and outside the United States, even if not subject to regulations imposed by local governments. The liability for environmental remediation and related costs was accrued when it was considered probable and the costs could
be reasonably estimated. Environmental costs were not material to our operations or financial position.

Employees

In connection with selling the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra in June 2010, whom offered positions to approximately half of our employees at
that time, we took actions and notified our remaining employees of their impending termination. A limited number of the remaining employees assisted with the wind down of the Aristos Business by the end of September 2010, provided transition
services to PMC-Sierra through December 2010 and continue to handle corporate matters, including the sale of our building and attempting to monetize our patent portfolio and the ongoing exploration of strategic alternatives. As a result of these
activities, as of December 31, 2010, we had a total of 15 employees, which excludes outsourced partners. Overall employee headcount, derived from both continuing and discontinuing operations declined by 92% in the Transition Period compared to
fiscal 2010, and headcount declined by 19% in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009. We had a total of 187 and 232 employees (in both continuing and discontinued operations) at the end of fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively.

We believe that we currently have favorable employee relations. None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining
agreement, nor have we ever experienced work stoppages.

Available Information

We make available free of charge through our Internet website at http://www.adptco.com the following filings as soon as reasonably
practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC: our Transition or Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, proxy,
information statements and all amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The SEC also maintains a web site at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information
statements, and other information that we file electronically with the SEC and that may also be read and copied at the SECs Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Information regarding the operation of the
SECs Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Our business faces significant risks. The risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks that we do not yet
know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our results of operations and financial condition. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results
of operations could suffer, and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

We may be considered a
shell company under federal securities laws and may become subject to more stringent reporting requirements.Under Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Exchange Act Rule 12b-2, a shell company is
defined as an entity that has no or nominal operations and either (a) no or nominal assets; (b) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents; or (c) assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash

##### Table of Contents

equivalents and nominal other assets. Depending on our future activities and operations, we may be deemed a shell company under the federal securities laws and regulations. The
Securities and Exchange Commissions rules prohibit the use of a Form S-8 for the registration of shares under equity incentive plans by a shell company and require a shell company to file a Form 8-K to report the same type of information that
would be required if it were filing to register a class of securities under the Exchange Act whenever the shell company is reporting the event that caused it to cease being a shell company. Being considered a shell company may adversely impact our
ability to offer our stock to officers, directors and consultants, and thereby make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified individuals to perform services for us, and would likely increase the costs of registration compliance following
the completion of a business combination.

Depending on our future activities and operations, we may be deemed an
investment company, which could impose on us burdensome compliance requirements and restrict our activities, which may make it difficult for us to complete future business combinations or acquisitions.The Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the Investment Company Act, requires registration, as an investment company, of companies that are engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading securities. Generally,
companies may be deemed investment companies under the Investment Company Act if they are viewed as engaging in the business of investing in securities or they own investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of certain assets. Depending on
our future activities and operations, we may become subject to the Investment Company Act. While Rule 3a-2 of the Investment Company Act provides an exemption that allows companies that may be deemed investment companies, but have a bona fide intent
to engage primarily in a business other than that of investing in securities up to one year to engage in such other business activity, we may not qualify for this or any other exemption under the Investment Company Act. If we are deemed to be an
investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may be subject to certain restrictions that may make it difficult for us to complete a business combination, including:



| |  |  | restrictions on the nature of and custodial requirements for holding our investments; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | restrictions on our issuance of securities, which we may use as consideration in a business combination.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, we may have imposed upon us burdensome requirements, including:



| |  |  | registration as an investment company;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | adoption of a specific form of corporate structure; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | reporting, record keeping, voting, proxy and disclosure requirements and other rules and regulations.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If we become subject to the Investment Company Act, compliance with these additional regulatory burdens would require additional costs and
expenses. There can be no assurance that we will not be deemed to be an investment company, as defined under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the Investment Company Act or that we will qualify for the exemption under Rule 3a-2 of the Investment
Company Act.

If our common stock becomes subject to the SECs penny stock rules, broker-dealers may experience
difficulty in completing customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.    Our common stock may become a penny stock pursuant to Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are defined as equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share, with certain
exemptions. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to purchase or sale of a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver to the customer a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny
stocks and the risks associated with the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction,
and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written
determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchasers written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the
secondary market of a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify suitable acquisition
candidates or business and investment opportunities.We are exploring strategic alternatives and seeking to identify new business acquisition opportunities in which we may utilize our NOLs. Acquisitions involve
numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the operations and products or services of the acquired companies, the expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition and subsequent integration of operations and products or
services and the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify, complete or integrate any future acquisitions or investments or that completed acquisitions or investments will
contribute favorably to our operations and future financial condition. If we are unable to identify strategic alternatives or new business acquisition opportunities, we may continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows, and our results
of operations and stock price may suffer.

Our stockholders may be subject to the broad discretion of management and our
Board of Directors.We have limited operating assets, and our business strategy involves identifying new business and investment opportunities. Our stockholders may not have an opportunity to evaluate the specific
merits or risks of any such proposed transactions or investments. As a result, our stockholders may depend on the broad discretion and judgment of management and our Board of Directors in connection with the application of our capital and the
selection of acquisition or investment targets. There can be no assurance that determinations ultimately made by us will permit us to achieve profitable operations.

We may incur significant costs in connection with our evaluation of new business opportunities and suitable acquisition candidates.Our management intends to identify,
analyze and evaluate potential new business opportunities, including possible acquisition and merger candidates. We may incur significant costs, such as due diligence and legal and other professional fees and expenses, as part of these efforts.
Notwithstanding these efforts and expenditures, we cannot give any assurance that we will identify an appropriate new business opportunity, or any acquisition opportunity, in the near term, or at all.

Failure to successfully identify and enter into a new line of business or identify possible acquisition candidates could cause our
stock price to decline.We expect to actively pursue new lines of business operations and to explore all strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value going forward, including deploying the proceeds from the
sale of our DPS Business and our other assets in seeking business acquisition opportunities and other actions to redeploy our capital, while we manage our remaining operations. In relation to pursuing such strategic alternatives and new business
acquisition opportunities, our stock price may decline due to any or all of the following potential occurrences:



| |  |  | we may not be able to identify a profitable new line of business or deploy successfully our resources to operate profitably in such line of business;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may not be able to find suitable acquisition candidates or may not be able to acquire suitable candidates within the limits of our financial
resources;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may not be able to effectively utilize our existing NOLs to offset future earnings;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may have difficulty retaining our key remaining employees or employees of acquired businesses; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may have difficulty retaining our Board of Directors or attracting suitable qualified candidates should a current director resign.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We may issue a substantial amount of our common stock in the future which could cause dilution to our
stockholders and otherwise adversely affect our stock price.Our current primary business strategy is to make acquisitions. While we may make acquisition(s) in whole or in part with cash, as part of such strategy, we
may issue additional shares of common stock as consideration for such acquisition(s), which could be significant. To the extent that we make acquisitions and issue our shares of common stock as consideration, our existing stockholders equity
interest may be diluted. Any such issuance will also increase the number of outstanding shares of common stock that will be eligible for sale in the future. Persons receiving shares of our common stock in connection with these acquisitions may be
more likely to sell off their common stock, which may influence the price of our common stock. In addition, the potential issuance of additional shares in connection with anticipated

##### Table of Contents

acquisitions could lessen demand for our common stock and result in a lower price than might otherwise be obtained. We may also issue common stock in the future for compensation purposes, in
connection with strategic transactions or for other purposes, including in connection with financings.

We will likely
have no operating history in our new line of business, which is yet to be determined, and therefore we will be subject to the risks inherent in establishing a new business.We have not identified what our new line or
lines of business will be and, therefore, we cannot fully describe the specific risks presented by such business. It is likely that we will have had no operating history in the new line of business, and it is possible that any company we may acquire
will have a limited operating history in its business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our future operations will generate operating or net income, and as such our success will be subject to the risks, expenses, difficulties and delays
inherent in establishing a new line of business. The ultimate success of such new business cannot be assured.

Third
parties may assert infringement claims against us, which may be expensive to defend and could divert our resources.    From time to time, third parties assert exclusive patent, copyright and other intellectual property
rights to technologies that were formerly key to our business, including businesses that we wound down or sold, and we expect to continue to receive such claims in the future. We cannot assure you that third parties will not assert other
infringement claims against us, directly or indirectly, in the future, that assertions by third parties will not result in costly litigation or that we would prevail in such litigation. These claims may be asserted in respect of intellectual
property that we own or formerly owned, or that we formerly licensed from others. Intellectual property litigation, regardless of the outcome, could result in substantial costs to us and diversion of our resources and management time and attention,
and could adversely affect our business and financial results.

We may be engaged in legal proceedings that could cause
us to incur unforeseen expenses and could occupy a significant amount of our managements time and attention.    From time to time, we are subject to litigation or claims, including claims related to businesses that
we wound down or sold, that could negatively affect our business operations and financial position. Such disputes could cause us to incur unforeseen expenses, could occupy a significant amount of our managements time and attention, and could
negatively affect our business operations and financial position.

We may be unable to realize the benefits of our
NOLs.NOLs may be carried forward to offset federal and state taxable income in future years and eliminate income taxes otherwise payable on such taxable income, subject to certain limits and adjustments. Based on
current income tax rates, if fully utilized, our NOLs and other carry-forwards could provide a benefit to us of significant future tax savings. However, our ability to use these tax benefits in future years will depend upon our ability to comply
with the rules relating to the preservation and use of NOLs and the amount of our otherwise taxable income. If we do not have sufficient taxable income in future years to use the tax benefits before they expire, we will lose the benefit of these
NOLs permanently. Consequently, our ability to use the tax benefits associated with our NOLs will depend significantly on our success in identifying suitable new business opportunities and acquisition candidates that maximize our NOLs, and once
identified, successfully becoming established in this new business line or consummating such an acquisition.

Additionally, if
we underwent an ownership change, the NOLs would be subject to an annual limit on the amount of the taxable income that may be offset by our NOLs generated prior to the ownership change and we may be unable to use a significant portion or all of our
NOLs to offset taxable income.

The amount of NOLs that we have claimed has not been audited or otherwise validated by the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS. The IRS could challenge our calculation of the amount of our NOLs and our determinations as to when a prior change in ownership occurred, and other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit our ability
to carry forward our NOLs to offset taxable income in future years. If the IRS was successful with respect to any such challenge, the potential tax benefit that the NOLs would provide us could be substantially reduced.

The cost-effective wind down of our operations depends on the efforts of our
workforce, the loss of whom could affect the transformation and success of our business.    To be successful in the efficient wind down of our operations, we must retain our remaining employees. Each of our employees is
an at-will employee, and, as a result, any of our employees could terminate their employment with us at any time without penalty. Therefore, we have implemented retention plans in an effort to retain these employees. The loss of any
employees key to an effective wind down could have a significant impact on the success of the wind down for certain of our corporate matters.

If the carrying value of our long-lived assets is not recoverable, an impairment loss must be recognized which would adversely affect our financial results.    Certain
events or changes in circumstances would require us to assess the recoverability of the carrying value of our long-lived assets. As a result of our decision to wind down our Aristos Business in June 2010, and in anticipation of putting our building
up for sale after completion of our final shipments to our customers through the end of September 2010, we evaluated the carrying value of our long-lived assets at July 2, 2010 and determined that the carrying value of such assets may not be
fully recoverable. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $10.2 million in the Transition Period to write off our intangible assets and reduce the carrying value of our property and equipment, net, to the estimated fair value, which was
based on the market approach and considered the perspective of market participants using or exchanging our long-lived assets. During the Transition Period, we put our building up for sale and reclassified the carrying value of $6.0 million from
Property and equipment, net, to Assets held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. While classified as assets held for sale, we may need to reassess the fair value of the building at each of our reporting periods and
determine whether the carrying value is recoverable. If the carrying value is not deemed to be recoverable based on current market conditions, we may be required to record additional impairment charges for our long-lived assets in the future. In
addition, if certain events or changes in circumstances arise, such as being unable to sell our building within one year, we may need to reclassify the building from assets held for sale to assets held and used, which may
require us to record a cumulative catch-up on the depreciable asset, which may have a material impact on our operating results in the future.

We hold non-controlling interests in privately held venture funds, and if these venture funds face financial difficulties in their operations, our investments could be
impaired.    We continue to hold non-controlling interests in privately held venture funds. At December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the carrying value of such investments aggregated $1.2 million at each
date. These investments are inherently risky because these venture funds invest in companies that may still be in the development stage or depend on third parties for financing to support their ongoing operations. In addition, the markets for the
technologies or products of these companies are typically in the early stages and may never develop. If these companies do not have adequate cash funding to support their operations, or if they encounter difficulties developing their technologies or
products, the venture funds investments in these companies may be impaired, which in turn, could result in impairment of our investment in these venture funds. For example, in fiscal 2009, the value of our non-controlling interest in privately
held venture funds declined, resulting in a recorded charge of $0.4 million. The carrying value of these investments is based on quarterly statements we receive from the funds. The statements are generally received one quarter in arrears, as
more timely valuations are not practical. The statements reflect the net asset value, which we use to determine the fair value for these investments, which (a) do not have a readily determinable fair value and (b) either have the
attributes of an investment company or prepare their financial statements consistent with the measurement principles of an investment company. The assumptions we use, due to lack of observable inputs, may impact the fair value of these equity
investments in future periods. While we have seen some improvement in global economic conditions, any adverse changes in equity investments and current market conditions may require us to record an impairment charge against all or a portion of the
investments in the future. Such an action would adversely affect our financial results.

We may sustain losses in our
investment portfolio due to adverse changes in the global credit markets.Global economic conditions have been challenged in the past by slowing growth and the sub-prime debt devaluation crisis, causing worldwide liquidity and credit
concerns. While the liquidity and credit concerns have passed and we have seen some improvement in global economic conditions, any adverse change in global economic conditions may adversely impact our financial results. A substantial portion of our
assets consists of

##### Table of Contents

investments in marketable securities that we hold as available-for-sale and we mark them to market. While there has been a decline in the trading values of certain of the securities in which we
have invested, we have not recognized a material loss on our securities as the unrealized losses incurred were not deemed to be other-than-temporary. We expect to realize the full value of all our marketable securities upon maturity or sale, as we
have the intent and ability to hold the securities until the full value is realized. However, we cannot provide any assurance that our invested cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the
financial markets, which may require us to record an impairment charge in the future that could adversely impact our financial results.

If the financial institutions that maintain our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities experience financial difficulties, which is more likely in the current weakened state of the economy,
our cash balances may be adversely impacted.We maintain our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities with certain financial institutions in which our balances exceed the limits that are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation. If the underlying financial institutions fail or other adverse conditions occur in the financial markets, our cash balances may be impacted.

We may be required to pay additional income taxes, which could negatively affect our results of operations and financial position.    Our tax provision continues to
reflect judgment and estimation regarding components of the settlement such as interest calculations and the application of the settlements to foreign, state and local taxing jurisdictions. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, the
ultimate tax outcome may materially differ from the tax amounts recorded in our Consolidated Financial Statements and may cause a higher effective tax rate that could materially affect our income tax provision, results of operations or cash flows in
the period or periods for which such determination is made. In fiscal 2009, the IRS concluded its audit of our federal income tax returns for the fiscal 2004 through 2006 audit cycle. The IRS issued a No Change Report indicating no change to our tax
liability; however, the IRS continues to have the ability to adjust tax attributes relating to these years in subsequent audits. We believe that we have provided sufficient tax provisions for these years and that the ultimate outcome of any future
IRS audits that include the tax attributes will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations in future periods. While the tax authorities in the foreign jurisdictions, including Singapore, in which we operate
or formerly operated continue to audit our tax returns for fiscal years subsequent to 1999, the potential outcome of these audits is uncertain and could result in material tax provisions or additional tax payments in future periods.

We may be subject to a higher effective tax rate that could negatively affect our results of operations and financial
position.    We are subject to income and other taxes in the United States, Singapore and other foreign taxing jurisdictions in which we operated or formerly operated. The determination of our worldwide provision for
income taxes and current and deferred tax assets and liabilities requires judgment and estimation and is subject to audit and redetermination by the taxing authorities. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, the following factors
could cause our effective tax rate to be materially different than tax amounts recorded in our Consolidated Financial Statements:



| |  |  | the jurisdiction in which profits were determined to be earned and taxed;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in available tax credits;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in share-based compensation expense;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in tax laws, the interpretation of tax laws either in the United States, Singapore or other foreign taxing jurisdictions or the issuance of new
interpretative accounting guidance related to uncertain transactions and calculations where the tax treatment was previously uncertain; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The factors noted above may cause a higher effective tax rate that could materially affect our income tax provision, results of operations
or cash flows in the period or periods for which such determination is made.

Our delisting from The NASDAQ Global Market may decrease the liquidity of our common
stock and decrease our ability to obtain equity funding.On July 27, 2010, we received a letter from the staff of the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Department informing us that it believes that we no longer have
an operating business and are a public shell, and as such no longer meet the NASDAQs listing requirements. As a result of such determination, our shares were delisted from The NASDAQ Global Markets at the opening of business on
August 5, 2010, and on the same date, commenced trading on the Pink Sheets Electronic Quotation Services, or the Pink Sheets. Broker-dealers often decline to trade stock in The Pink Sheets given that the market for such securities is often
limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater than with stocks listed on national securities exchanges. Consequently, selling our common stock may be difficult because smaller quantities of shares may be bought and
sold, transactions may be delayed and securities analyst and news media coverage of our Company may be reduced. These factors may result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for shares of our common stock, lower trading
volume and negatively impact our ability to obtain equity funding, if needed.

If actual results or events differ
materially from those contemplated by us in making estimates and assumptions, our reported financial condition and results of operations for future periods could be materially affected.    The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying
notes. For example, we have identified key accounting estimates in our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates included in Item 7: Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this
Transition Report on Form 10-K, which include fair value measurements, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities valuation, impairment of long-lived assets, income taxes, revenue recognition and inventory. Furthermore, Note 1 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in this Transition Report on Form 10-K describes the significant accounting policies essential to preparing our Consolidated Financial
Statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Although we believe that our judgments and estimates are appropriate and correct, actual future results
may differ materially from our estimates.

Future changes in financial accounting standards or practices or existing
taxation rules or practices may cause adverse effects on our reported results of operations.A change in accounting standards or practices or a change in existing taxation rules or practices can have a significant
effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective. New accounting pronouncements and taxation rules and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements and taxation
practices have occurred and may occur in the future.

Changes in securities laws and regulations have increased and may
continue to increase our costs.    Changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies have increased and may continue to increase our expenses as we devote resources to respond to their requirements. We
incurred and will continue to incur additional administrative expense to implement and maintain Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which requires management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to
attest to, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

With the recently passed Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act, we expect we will continue to increase the scope, complexity and cost of our corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices. We also expect these developments may make it more difficult and more
expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage.

Internal control deficiencies or weaknesses that are not yet identified could emerge.    Over time, we
may identify and correct deficiencies or weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and, where and when appropriate, report on the identification and correction of these deficiencies or weaknesses. However, the internal control
procedures can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that deficiencies or weaknesses are identified. Deficiencies or weaknesses that are not yet identified could emerge, and the



12

##### Table of Contents

identification and corrections of these deficiencies or weaknesses could have a material impact on our results of operations.

Internal control issues that appear minor now may later become material weaknesses.    We are required
to publicly report on deficiencies or weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that meet a materiality standard as required by law and related regulations and interpretations. Management may, at a point in time, accurately
categorize a deficiency or weakness as immaterial or minor and therefore not be required to publicly report such deficiency or weakness. Such determination, however, does not preclude a change in circumstances such that the deficiency or weakness
could, at a later time, become a material weakness that could have a material impact on our results of operations.

Manmade problems such as computer viruses or terrorism may disrupt our operations and harm our operating
results.    Despite our implementation of network security measures, our servers are vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins and similar disruptions from unauthorized tampering with our computer systems. Any such event
could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. In addition, the effects of war or acts of terrorism could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Further, as a
company with headquarters and operations located in the United States, we may be impacted by actions against the United States. We are predominantly uninsured for losses and interruptions caused by terrorist acts and acts of war.

Item 1B.Unresolved Staff Comments

Not applicable.

Item 2.Properties

As of December 31, 2010, we owned an approximately 104,000 square foot building in the United States, which was classified as
Assets Held for Sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, of which approximately 27,000 square feet was leased to our tenants and approximately 17,000 square feet was available for sublease. In addition, we leased a property in the United
States totaling approximately 40,000 square feet which has been fully subleased to third parties through the end of the lease term, which expires in October 2011. During the Transition Period, we reduced our leased properties by approximately 47%
from the 270,000 square feet we owned and leased at March 31, 2010, primarily through the sale of the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra as PMC-Sierra assumed the obligations for certain of our previously leased facilities, primarily related to our
international sites. During fiscal 2010, we reduced our leased properties by approximately 13% from the 309,000 square feet we owned and leased at March 31, 2009. During fiscal 2009, we reduced our owned and leased properties by approximately
33% from the 462,000 square feet we owned and leased at March 31, 2008. The consolidation efforts that occurred in the Transition Period and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 include having certain facilities located in California, Minnesota, North
Carolina and Washington, subleased or made available for sublease and closing or substantially downsizing operations in Florida, Bangalore, India, the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Our principal executive offices are located in Milpitas, California and include administrative functions only.

We operate in one segment; therefore, all of our facilities are managed at the corporate level. We believe our existing facilities and
equipment are well maintained and in good operating condition, and we believe our facilities are sufficient to meet our current needs. Our future facilities requirements will depend upon our business, and we believe additional space, if required,
can be obtained on reasonable terms.

Item 3.Legal Proceedings

We are a party to litigation matters and claims, including those related to intellectual property and businesses that we wound down or
sold, which are normal in the course of our operations, and while the results of such litigation matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

However, because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of litigation, should the outcome of these actions be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows could be materially and adversely affected.

Market Information for Common Stock

Our common stock is currently traded in the over the counter market and is quoted on the Pink Sheets, under the symbol ADPT.PK. Our common stock was previously traded on the NASDAQ Global
Markets under the symbol ADPT from our initial public offering on June 24, 1986 through the open of business on August 5, 2010, when we were delisted from the NASDAQ Global Markets. As a result, the following table sets forth
the high and low sales prices of our common stock for the year ended March 31, 2010 and through the end of business on August 4, 2010 of the Transition Period. While the remaining portion of the Transition Period beginning at the open of
business on August 5, 2010 sets forth the range of high and low bid information of our common stock traded on the Pink Sheets. The high and low bid quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission, and may
not represent actual transactions. The market price of our common stock has been volatile. For an additional discussion, see Item 1A: Risk Factors of this Transition Report on Form 10-K.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

In July 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $40 million of our common stock. We announced
the adoption of this program on July 31, 2008. During the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, we repurchased approximately 4.7 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.98 for an aggregate repurchase price
of $14.2 million, excluding brokerage commissions. During the Transition Period, we repurchased approximately 11.7 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.93 for an aggregate repurchase price of $34.3 million, excluding
brokerage commissions. In December 2010, we terminated the stock repurchase program. Under the authorized stock repurchase program, we have cumulatively repurchased approximately 13.5 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate

Stock Performance Graph

The following graph compares the cumulative total stockholder return of our common stock to the NASDAQ Composite Index and the NASDAQ Computer and Data Processing Index. The graph assumes that $100 was
invested on March 31, 2005 and its relative performance was tracked through December 31, 2010 in our common stock and in each index, and that all dividends paid were reinvested. These indices, which reflect formulas for dividend
reinvestment and weighting of individual stocks, do not necessarily reflect returns that could be achieved by an individual investor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of our previous or future filings under the
Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that might incorporate this Transition Report on Form 10-K or future filings made by us under those statutes, the stock price performance graph is not considered soliciting
material, is not deemed filed with the SEC and is not deemed to be incorporated by reference into any of those prior filings or into any future filings made by us under those statues.

|(3) | In the Transition Period, we (i) recorded stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million and cash compensation expense of $1.2 million, which primarily reflected
the acceleration of unvested stock-based awards and a settlement of unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment, respectively, based on the modifications to such awards approved by our Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), (ii) changed the remaining useful life of our intangible assets to reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets were expected to be realized, which materially
impacted the amounts amortized, (see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), (iii) recorded an impairment charge of $10.2 million related to our long-lived assets, of which $5.4 million was recorded within Cost of revenues
and $4.8 million was recorded within Impairment of long-lived assets (see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and (iv) recorded a gain of $10.7 million on the sale of the DPS Business (see Note 3 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements).

|(4) | In fiscal 2010, we (i) recorded stock-based compensation expense of $3.6 million, which included modifications of certain stock-based awards primarily related to
our former Chief Executive Officer, resulting in a charge of $0.9 million (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), (ii) received $0.9 million as part of a class action suit (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements), (iii) received $0.4 million from the sale of an investment in a non-controlling interest of a non-public company (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and (iv) recorded an additional gain of

(ii) recorded stock-based compensation of $1.8 million (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), (iii) recorded a gain of $2.3 million on the sale of marketable equity securities (see Note 12 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements), (iv) recorded a gain of $1.7 million on the repurchase of our 3/4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023, or 3/4% Notes, on the open market (see Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), (v) recorded a
gain of $4.6 million on the sale of the Snap Server NAS business (see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and (vi) recorded a tax benefit arising from the resolution of tax disputes and the adjustment of taxes due in a prior
period (see Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

|(6) | In fiscal 2008, we (i) recorded a gain of $6.7 million on the sale of certain properties, (ii) recorded stock-based compensation of $2.4 million and
(iii) realized a gain of $1.6 million on the sale of a marketable debt security in a foreign entity that was obtained as part of a fiscal 2004 acquisition.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(7) | In fiscal 2007, we (i) recorded stock-based compensation of $2.4 million, (ii) wrote down an investment of $0.9 million and (iii) received a discrete tax
benefit of $60.2 million primarily attributable to the settlement of certain tax disputes with the United States and Singapore taxing authorities, which included the resolution of our fiscal 1997 U.S. Tax Court Litigation settlement and our fiscal
2002 and fiscal 2003 IRS audit cycles.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(8) | In the Transition Period, we sold the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra and received $29.3 million upon the closing of the transaction (see Note 3 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements). In fiscal 2008, we reclassified our 3/4% Notes of $225.3 million from long-term liabilities to current liabilities. In fiscal 2009, we utilized cash to pay off substantially all of the debt associated
with the 3/4% Notes, in the amount of $222.9 million (see Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). In addition, we paid approximately $38.0 million to acquire Aristos in fiscal 2009 (see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Item 7.Managements Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations section should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Transition Report on Form 10-K, including Item 1: Business; Item 6: Selected Financial Data; and
Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. This section includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements
such as will, believe, are projected to be and similar expressions are statements regarding future events or our future performance, and include statements regarding projected operating results. These
forward-looking statements are based on current expectations, beliefs, intentions, strategies, forecasts and assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by
these forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to: our ability to deploy our capital in a manner that maximizes stockholder value; the ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates or business and investment
opportunities; the ability to monetize our remaining assets including our building and patent portfolio; the ability to realize the benefits of our net operating losses; the possibility of being deemed an investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, which may make it difficult for us to complete future business combinations or acquisitions; the potential need to record additional impairment charges for long-lived assets or marketable securities based on current
market conditions; the amount by which we expect to reduce our annual operating expenses due to the Transition Period restructuring plan; the ability to reduce our operating costs; general economic conditions and our expected liquidity in future
periods. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this filing and particularly in the Risk Factors set forth in Part I,
Item 1A of this Transition Report on Form 10-K. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Basis of Presentation

On December 7, 2010 our Board of Directors
approved the change in our fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. As a result of this change, this Transition Report on Form 10-K is a transition report and includes financial information for the nine-month transition period from
April 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010, or Transition Period. The comparative financial information provided for the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 is unaudited, since it represented an interim period of the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2010 and includes all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the results for that period. Subsequent to this Transition Report on Form 10-K, our reports on Form 10-K will cover the calendar year from
January 1 to December 31, with historical periods remaining unchanged.

On June 22, 2010, we changed our name to
ADPT Corporation, or ADPT, through a merger of ADPT, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adaptec, Inc., into Adaptec, Inc.

In June
2010, we sold the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra. In June 2008, we sold the Snap Server NAS business to Overland. Accordingly, we reclassified the financial statements and related disclosures for all periods, except for the historical Consolidated
Balance Sheets and Statements of Stockholders Equity, to reflect these businesses as discontinued operations. These reclassifications had no impact on net loss, total assets or total stockholders equity. Unless otherwise indicated, the
following discussion pertains only to our continuing operations.

In September 2008, we acquired Aristos, a provider of RAID
technology to the data storage industry, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger by and among Adaptec, Aristos, Ariel Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, and TPG Ventures, L.P., solely in its capacity as the representative of
stockholders of Aristos. We refer to the agreement and plan of merger with Aristos in this Transition Report on Form 10-K as the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement provided for our acquisition of Aristos through a merger in which Aristos became
our wholly-owned subsidiary. The Aristos acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination and, accordingly, the results of Aristos have been included in our consolidated results of operation and financial position from the date of
acquisition.

In addition, since the sale of our Snap Server NAS business in June 2008, we have operated in one segment. We had
provided enterprise-class external storage products, including ASICs and software, to OEMs. As we

completed the wind down of the Aristos Business in September 2010, our business is now primarily focused on capital redeployment and identification of new, profitable business operations in which
we can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our NOLs in the future.

Overview

We continue to explore all strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value. With the consummation of the sale of the DPS Business to
PMC-Sierra, which included positions offered by PMC-Sierra to approximately half of our employees at that time, we took further actions and notified our remaining employees during the first three-months of the Transition Period of their impending
termination. A limited number of these employees were retained temporarily to assist with the transition services we provided to PMC-Sierra through December 2010, provide customer operating support related to our Aristos Business through September
2010, or to handle corporate matters, including attempting to monetize our building and patent portfolio and the ongoing exploration of strategic alternatives.

In connection with the sale of the DPS Business, our Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors modified all employees unvested stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock
awards and restricted stock units (none of which affect our Interim President and Chief Executive Officer) in May 2010. The modifications included the acceleration of unvested stock-based awards and a settlement of unvested stock-based awards in the
form of a fixed cash payment.

In May 2010, at the time we entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement with PMC-Sierra, we
evaluated whether to pursue the sale of the Aristos Business or to wind down the Aristos Business, in either case by the end of September 2010. As a result of these actions, we changed the remaining useful life of our intangible assets which
materially affected the amounts amortized prospectively based on the net book value at March 31, 2010. In addition, by the end of June 2010, we decided to wind down our Aristos Business and put our building up for sale in future quarters. As a
result, we evaluated the carrying value of our long-lived assets and determined that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable and recorded an impairment charge of $10.2 million in the Transition Period. During September 2010,
we fulfilled all orders for our remaining customers related to our Aristos Business and put our building up for sale.

We
remain committed to providing value to all of our stockholders and will aggressively pursue opportunities to deploy the cash and liquid assets on hand to create value for our stockholders, including exploring acquisitions of businesses in which we
can utilize our existing working capital and maximize the use of our NOLs, engaging in stock buybacks, paying cash dividends, monetizing our building and remaining patent portfolio, or any combination thereof. During the Transition Period, we sold a
portion of our patents and recognized a gain of $0.9 million, net of costs, within discontinued operations. During the Transition Period, we repurchased approximately 11.7 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate repurchase price of
$34.3 million, excluding brokerage commissions, under an existing Board of Directors authorized stock repurchase program, which was executed in July 2008 and terminated in December 2010.

Net revenues increased by
$5.6 million in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, due to last time purchases from our customers as we completed the wind down of the Aristos Business in September 2010 and the recognition of deferred
revenue based on final acceptance and release of support and maintenance obligations that was received from our customer. We do not expect to record any revenues in future quarters, unless a business is acquired.

Net revenues increased by $1.4 million in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009, as we acquired Aristos in September 2008, which resulted in
a partial year of revenues earned for fiscal 2009. This was offset by a decrease of $0.4 million as we ceased selling a certain product line in fiscal 2009.

Geographical Revenues and Customer Concentration

All of our net revenues for the Transition Period, nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 were
derived primarily from customers located in the Pacific Rim. In the Transition Period, Apple and IBM accounted for 59% and 35% of our total net revenues, respectively. In the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, Apple accounted for 94% of
our total net revenues. In fiscal 2010, Apple accounted for 92% of our total net revenues. In fiscal 2009, Apple and Xiotech accounted for 70% and 14%, of our total net revenues, respectively.

Our gross margin was
impacted by amounts recorded in cost of revenues, which primarily consisted of direct product costs, manufacturing support costs, shipping and handling costs, warranty costs, inventory-related charges, amortization of acquisition-related intangible
assets and/or impairment of acquisition-related intangible assets. As of December 31, 2010, we did not have any employees engaged in manufacturing activities.

The decrease in gross margin in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 was primarily due to the increase in the amortization of acquisition-related intangible
assets of $4.7 million related to the core and existing technologies purchased as part of the acquisition of Aristos, and was then further impacted by an impairment charge related to these intangible assets of $5.4 million. The remaining useful life
of these intangible assets was changed prospectively beginning in the three-month period ended July 2, 2010 based upon our evaluation of whether to pursue the sale or wind down of the Aristos Business, in either case by the end of September
2010, which reflected the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets were expected to be realized. The write off of intangible assets resulted from our review of long-lived assets and our determination that indicators were present in which
the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. In addition, our standard product contributions declined in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 due to the mix in revenue from our
customers.

The improvement in gross margin in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily due to improved standard
product contributions due to the mix in revenue from our customers. This was offset primarily due to an increase in the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of $1.2 million in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 related to the
purchased intangible assets for core and existing technologies and backlog from the acquisition of Aristos in September 2008, which caused negative margins.

Research and development
expenses primarily consisted of salaries and related costs of employees engaged in ongoing research, design and development activities and subcontracting costs. As of December 31, 2010, we did not have any employees engaged in research and
development activities. We do not expect to have additional research and development expenses in future quarters, unless a business is acquired.

##### Table of Contents

The decrease in research and development expense in the Transition Period compared to the
nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 was primarily due to reductions in our workforce related to a restructuring plan we implemented in the first three months of the Transition Period, which resulted in an 88% decrease in our average
headcount for employees engaged in research and development functions. Additionally, we recorded lower stock-based compensation expense by $0.4 million in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, as the
nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 included stock-based compensation expense related to the modification of certain stock-based awards, and to a lesser extent, no stock-based awards were granted to employees in the Transition Period. We
also decreased our infrastructure spending in June 2010, as we decided to wind down our Aristos Business by the end of September 2010. The decrease was offset by the increase in the amortization of our intangible assets of $1.1 million related to a
software license agreement we had with Synopsys, Inc., or Synopsys, which was entered into in July 2009. The remaining useful life of this intangible asset was changed prospectively beginning in the three-month period ended July 2, 2010 as we
ceased using the license in May 2010 in connection with actions taken under our Transition Period restructuring plan, which reflected the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets were realized. In addition, we modified and settled
certain unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment, resulting in cash compensation expense of $0.7 million in the Transition Period.

The increase in research and development expense in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily due to the acquisition of the Aristos engineering team in September 2008. We also recorded higher
stock-based compensation expense of $0.7 million in fiscal 2010 primarily due to the impact from the true-up of actual forfeitures that occurred in fiscal 2009, which reduced our stock-based compensation expense during that period, and to a lesser
extent, the modification of certain stock-based awards that increased stock-based compensation expense in fiscal 2010. This was partially offset by the temporary reductions in employees compensation, which began in the first quarter of fiscal
2010.

Our selling, marketing and
administrative expense consists primarily of salaries, consulting fees and outside service provider fees. As of December 31, 2010, we had 15 employees engaged in administrative activities. We expect our selling, marketing and administrative
expense to decline in fiscal 2011 based on the anticipated cost savings we expect to obtain from the reductions in workforce we implemented in the Transition Period, unless a business is acquired.

The decrease in selling, marketing and administrative expense in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended
January 1, 2010 was primarily a result of reductions in our workforce and infrastructure spending due to a restructuring plan we implemented in fiscal 2010, which resulted in a 57% decrease in our average headcount for employees engaged in
selling, marketing and administrative functions. We also recorded lower stock-based compensation expense by $2.0 million in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, as the nine-month period ended
January 1, 2010 included stock-based compensation expense related to the modification of certain stock-based awards, and to a lesser extent, no stock-based awards were granted to employees in the Transition Period. The decrease in selling,
marketing and administrative expense in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 was partially offset by cash compensation expense of $0.5 million related to the modification and settlement of certain
unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment and expense of $0.5 million related to a discretionary bonus offered to Mr. Quicke, our Interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

The decrease in selling, marketing and administrative expense in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily a result of reductions

implemented in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 and in fiscal 2009, which resulted in a 34% decrease in our average headcount for employees engaged in selling, marketing and administrative
functions, temporary reductions in employees compensation, which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, and reductions in outside service providers. This was partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense of $1.1 million
primarily due to the modification of certain stock-based awards, a fiscal 2010 expense related to guaranteed cash payments of $1.6 million associated with the execution of the separation and consulting service agreements with our former Chief
Executive Officer, professional fees of $1.2 million incurred in fiscal 2010 related to the consent solicitation initiated by the Steel Group and a charge recorded in fiscal 2010 for the reimbursement of $0.7 million related to professional fees
that the Steel Group incurred with respect to the consent solicitation.

Acquisition-related
intangible assets included core and existing technologies, customer relationships, and backlog from our acquisition of Aristos in September 2008. We amortized the acquisition-related intangible assets over periods which reflect the pattern in which
the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be realized, which is primarily using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which originally ranged from three months to five years, and were subsequently changed during the
Transition Period to approximately 5.25 months. The amortization of our intangible assets related to core and existing technologies was reflected in Cost of revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The increase in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in the Transition Period as compared to the nine-month period ended
January 1, 2010 was due to a change in the remaining useful life of the intangible assets related to customer relationships purchased from the acquisition of Aristos based upon our evaluation of whether to pursue the sale or wind down of the
Aristos Business, in either case by the end of September 2010, which reflected the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets were expected to be realized.

The increase in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was due to the amortization of purchased intangible assets from the Aristos acquisition in
September 2008 for customer relationships of $0.5 million.

We implemented several
restructuring plans during the Transition Period and fiscal years 2010 and 2009. The goal of these plans was to bring our operational expenses to appropriate levels relative to our net revenues, while simultaneously implementing extensive
company-wide expense-control programs.

The restructuring charges of $3.9 million recorded in the Transition Period primarily
related to the restructuring plan implemented during the Transition Period with minimal adjustments related to prior fiscal years restructuring plans. The restructuring charges of $1.1 million recorded in fiscal 2010 primarily related to the
restructuring plan implemented during that fiscal year with minimal adjustments related to prior fiscal years restructuring plans. Of the $3.5 million recorded in fiscal 2009, $3.3 million related to restructuring charges for

plans implemented in fiscal 2009 and $0.2 million related to adjustments made for prior fiscal years restructuring plans due to additional lease costs for facilities previously
consolidated. All expenses, including adjustments, associated with our restructuring plans are included in Restructuring charges and Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes in the Consolidated Statements of
Operations. For further discussion of our restructuring plans, please refer to Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The restructuring plans are discussed in detail below.

Transition Period Restructuring Plan

In June 2010, we completed our
actions and notified affected employees of the termination of their employment, primarily in engineering and general administrative functions, in connection with a restructuring plan adopted on May 6, 2010, with expected restructuring charges
of $3.9 million. The execution of this restructuring plan was substantially contingent upon the sale of the our DPS Business to PMC-Sierra, which transaction was consummated on June 8, 2010, and was intended to allow us to reduce our operating
expenses following such sale. Certain of the employees notified continued to provide services through December 2010 in connection with the transition services we provided to PMC-Sierra, and to a lesser extent, to assist in corporate matters,
including the completion of the wind down of the Aristos Business by the end of September 2010. We expect to incur severance and related benefits charges of $3.7 million associated with this restructuring plan, of which $3.7 million was recorded in
the Transition Period and minimal charges are expected to be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. We also consolidated our facilities and incurred a termination fee of $0.2 million in the Transition Period upon vacating a facility in
California.

Fiscal 2010 Restructuring Plan

In the third quarter of fiscal 2010, we committed to a restructuring plan to better align our operating costs with the continued decline in our net revenues, resulting in a restructuring charge of $1.2
million in fiscal 2010. We reduced our workforce primarily in the general administrative functions and provided severance and related benefits of $1.0 million. We also consolidated our facilities further and incurred a net estimated loss of $0.2
million for vacating certain premises.

Fiscal 2009 Restructuring Plans

We recorded a total of $3.3 million in restructuring charges for plans implemented in fiscal 2009, of which $2.5 million related
to severance and benefits for employee reductions worldwide and $0.8 million related to vacating certain facilities and disposing of duplicative assets.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, we approved and initiated a restructuring plan to (1) reduce our operating expenses due to a declining revenue base, (2) streamline our operations and
(3) better align our resources with our strategic business objectives, resulting in a restructuring charge of $1.9 million in fiscal 2009. This restructuring plan included workforce reductions in all functions of the organization worldwide and
consolidation of our facilities, which resulted in restructuring charges of $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Of the $1.9 million recorded in fiscal 2009 related to this restructuring plan, $0.3 million was recorded in the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2009, related to accrual adjustments for the additional estimated loss on our facilities and disposing of duplicative assets.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, we initiated additional actions to reduce expenses as our business began to be impacted by the deterioration of macroeconomic conditions, resulting in a restructuring
charge of $1.4 million in fiscal 2009 related to severance and benefits for employee reductions primarily in sales, marketing and administrative functions.

Previous Restructuring Plans

In addition, we recorded provision
adjustments of $0.2 million in fiscal 2009 related to our previous acquisition-related restructuring plan accrual (see Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), primarily related to additional lease costs related to the estimated loss on
the facility that we sublease.

We performed a review of
our long-lived assets and determined that an indicator was present in the Transition Period in which the carrying value was not recoverable. We recorded an impairment charge of $4.8 million in the Transition Period to write off our intangible assets
related to customer relationships and to reduce the carrying value of our property and equipment, net, to the estimated fair value based upon the market approach and in consideration of the perspective of market participants using or exchanging our
long-lived assets. The write off of our intangible assets related to core and existing technologies was reflected in Cost of revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Notes 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for
further discussions regarding the impairment of our long-lived assets.

Goodwill was not
amortized, but instead, was reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we experienced a significant and
continued decline in the market value of our common stock, which resulted in our market capitalization falling below our net book value. Based on our annual review of goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, we recorded an impairment charge of
$16.9 million to write off goodwill primarily due to the net book value exceeding the implied fair value. For further discussion of our goodwill impairment, please refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

##### Table of Contents

Interest income reflects interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities balances and realized gains and losses on marketable securities. Other income, net, is primarily attributable to realized gains on marketable equity securities and investments, gains from the repurchase of certain portions of our
3/4% Notes, and fluctuations in foreign currency gains or losses, and to a lesser extent, includes recorded changes in values not deemed to be other-than-temporary on non-controlling interest on certain investments as well as gains and losses on the
dispositions of property and equipment. We expect that our interest and other income, net, will continue to decline in future periods primarily due to the maturity of higher yielding investments.

The decrease in interest and other income, net, in the Transition Period compared to the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 was
primarily due to lower interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances and gains of $1.3 million recognized in the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 related to the settlement of a class action suit
and the sale of an investment as discussed further below.

The decrease in interest and other income, net, in fiscal 2010
compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily due to a decrease in interest earned on lower average cash balances as we used cash for the repurchase of certain portions of our 3/4% Notes and for the acquisition of Aristos in fiscal 2009, combined with lower
interest rates. This was partially offset by the receipt of $0.9 million from Micron Technology, Inc. as part of a class action settlement regarding DRAM antitrust matters and a gain of $0.4 million from the sale of an investment in a
non-controlling interest of a non-public company.

Interest expense is
primarily associated with our 3/4% Notes issued in December 2003. The interest expense in the Transition Period and the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 remained relatively flat. The decrease in interest expense in fiscal 2010
compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily due to the reduction in the outstanding principal amount plus premium of the 3/4% Notes of $225.0 million, which was paid throughout fiscal 2009. We have repurchased all but $0.3 million of our 3/4% Notes as of
December 31, 2010 and will not incur significant interest expense from these notes in future periods.

For the Transition Period,
the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, we recorded income tax benefits (provisions) of $(0.7) million, $6.1 million, $7.6 million and $11.4 million on losses from continuing operations before income
taxes of $27.6 million, $23.8 million, $33.1 million and $39.2 million, respectively. Our effective tax rates include foreign losses in jurisdictions where no tax benefit is derived, foreign taxes in jurisdictions where tax rates differ
from U.S. tax rates, changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, certain state minimum taxes, discrete tax benefits associated with settling certain tax disputes primarily with the United States, Singapore and German taxing
authorities, releases of our Irish withholding taxes and changes in judgment related to uncertain tax positions in both the United States and foreign jurisdictions based on new information received and new uncertain tax positions that were
identified. Interest is accrued on prior years tax disputes and refund claims as a discrete item each period.

##### Table of Contents

In the transition period for fiscal 2010, the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010
and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, our tax benefit (provision) was associated with losses incurred from continuing operations that were offset against income and taxes recorded in discontinued operations. This was partially offset by state minimum
taxes and foreign taxes related to our foreign subsidiaries.

In the transition period for fiscal 2010, our tax provision
included discrete tax expenses of $7.9 million primarily due to changes in judgment related to the on-going audits in our foreign jurisdictions.

In fiscal 2010, our tax benefit included discrete tax benefits of $1.3 million related to additional tax refunds that became available to us during fiscal 2010 due to the enactment of the Worker,
Homeownership and Business Act of 2009, which allowed for an extension of the NOL carryback period from two to five years for United States federal tax purposes. We also recorded discrete tax benefits of $4.4 million in fiscal 2010 primarily due to
reaching final settlement with the German tax authorities for fiscal years 2001 through 2004 and the Singapore tax authorities for fiscal year 2001, reflecting the reversal of previously accrued liabilities and refunded tax amounts. This was
partially offset by discrete tax expense of $3.6 million in fiscal 2010 primarily due to changes in judgment related to the on-going audits in our foreign jurisdictions.

In fiscal 2009, our tax benefit included discrete tax benefits of $1.4 million, which included the reversal of previously accrued liabilities related to reaching final settlement with the Singapore tax
authorities for fiscal years 1998 through 2000 and the lapsing of the statute of limitations on a pre-acquisition tax issue related to Eurologic. This was offset by changes in judgment related to on-going audits in our foreign jurisdictions and new
foreign tax issues that were identified, which included our tax exposures that pre-date our acquisition of ICP vortex Computersysteme GmbH, or ICP vortex, resulting in increases in our liabilities for uncertain tax positions. Changes to the
liabilities for uncertain tax benefits related to the Eurologic and ICP vortex items were recorded as part of the tax provision as opposed to adjusting amounts to purchase accounting as no goodwill or related intangible assets existed at
March 31, 2009, due to impairments or the full amortization of intangible assets in previous fiscal years. In fiscal 2009, we also recorded a favorable tax impact due from the state of California, including accrued and unpaid interest, of
approximately $1.6 million due to notices received from the California Franchise Tax Board in January 2009 as a result of their review of our amended fiscal years 1994 through 2003 tax returns. These notices indicated that certain adjustments were
to be made in conjunction with adjustments made on our amended Federal tax returns for those fiscal years, due to reaching resolutions with the United States taxing authorities on all outstanding audit issues, as further discussed in Note 13 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have concluded our negotiations with the IRS taxing authorities with regard to our tax
disputes for our fiscal years 1994 through 2006, as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In fiscal 2009, the IRS issued a No Change Report indicating no change to our tax liability; however, the IRS continues to have the
ability to adjust tax attributes relating to these years in subsequent audits. We believe that we have provided sufficient tax provisions for these years and that the ultimate outcome of any future IRS audits that include the tax attributes will not
have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations in future periods. The tax authorities in the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate in continue to audit our tax returns for fiscal years subsequent to 1999. The
potential outcome of these audits is uncertain and could result in material tax provisions or benefits in future periods. However, we cannot predict with certainty how these matters will be resolved and whether we will be required to make additional
tax payments and believe that we have provided sufficient tax provisions for the tax exposures in such foreign jurisdictions.

As of December 31, 2010, our total gross unrecognized tax benefits were $31.8 million, of which $12.1 million, if recognized, would
affect the effective tax rate. There was an overall increase of $7.9 million in our gross unrecognized tax benefits from fiscal 2010 to the transition period primarily due to tax expenses from the ongoing audits primarily in our foreign
jurisdictions.

We are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income taxes in many U.S. states and foreign
jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2010, fiscal years 2004 onward remained open to examination by the U.S.

taxing authorities and fiscal years 1999 onward remained open to examination in various foreign jurisdictions in which we operate or formerly operated. U.S. tax attributes generated in fiscal
years 2004 onward also remain subject to adjustment in subsequent audits when they are utilized.

The calculation of
unrecognized tax benefits involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex global tax regulations. Management regularly assesses our tax positions in light of legislative, bilateral tax treaty, regulatory and judicial developments
in the countries in which we conduct or formerly conducted business. Management believes that it is not reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months; however, tax audits remain open
as discussed above and the outcome of any tax audits are inherently uncertain, which could change this judgment in any given quarter.

We had a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $70.4 million, which included immaterial out-of-period adjustments that had no impact to net loss, and $81.2 million at December 31, 2010 and
March 31, 2010, respectively, as we determined that it was more likely than not that all of our net U.S. deferred tax assets will not be realized. This resulted in decrease to the valuation allowance by $10.8 million during the Transition
Period and an increase to the valuation allowance by $5.3 million during fiscal 2010. Factors that led to this conclusion included, but were not limited to, our past operating results, cumulative tax losses in the United States and uncertain future
income on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis. We continuously monitor the circumstances impacting the expected realization of our deferred tax assets on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis.

The change in discontinued
operations in the Transition Period compared to nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 was primarily attributable to the gain of $10.7 million, net of taxes of $6.6 million, on the sale of the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra, which was consummated
in June 2010, and was recorded in the Transition Period in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. We also recorded a gain of $0.1 million, $1.0 million, $1.2 million and
$4.6 million in the Transition Period, nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of
Operations related to the sale of the Snap Server NAS business with Overland. The gain recorded in the Transition Period and fiscal 2010 for the sale of the Snap Server NAS business was based on the cash received in connection with the amended
promissory note agreement with Overland, in which Overland was allowed to pay us the remaining $1.2 million receivable plus accrued interest by March 31, 2010. In fiscal 2009, we released the reserve on the receivable as cash was collected due
to the continued concern of Overlands ability to pay us. We also incurred Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes of $(0.3) million, $6.3 million, $6.9 million and $12.9 million in the Transition Period, nine-month
period ended January 1, 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively, related to the DPS Business and Snap Server NAS business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Key
Components of Cash Flow

Working Capital:    Our principal source of liquidity is cash on hand.
We focus on managing the critical components of working capital, which include payables and short-term debt. Our working capital at December 31, 2010, March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 was $356.8 million, $377.0 million and
$385.2 million, respectively.

##### Table of Contents

The decrease in working capital at December 31, 2010 compared to March 31, 2010 of
$20.2 million was attributable to the proceeds received of $29.3 million in connection with the consummation of the sale of the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra, decrease in accounts payables and accrued liabilities of $13.7 million as we made payments to
our suppliers, service providers and employees related to compensation matters (which included payments made under our restructuring plans and the settlement of unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment) and an increase of $6.0
million related to our building that we classified as assets held for sale. This was offset by decreases in accounts receivable of $7.5 million and inventory of $2.3 million as PMC-Sierra acquired substantially all assets related to the DPS
Business, and to a lesser extent, the wind down of the Aristos Business, and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $8.8 million primarily related to a tax refund received from the IRS and the release of non-cash deferred costs
in association with the recognition of deferred revenue in the Transition Period.

The decrease in working capital at
March 31, 2010 compared to March 31, 2009 of $8.2 million was attributable to (1) a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $3.4 million primarily due to a tax refund received from the State of California and other
foreign jurisdictions; (2) a decrease in accounts receivable of $4.2 million primarily due to lower revenue levels and our improved collection efforts; and (3) a decrease in inventory of $1.8 million due to improved efficiencies in our
inventory and operations management. This was offset by decreases in accounts payables and accrued liabilities of $2.3 million as we have improved our payment turns.

Operating activities:    Operating cash activities consist of loss from continuing operations, net of taxes, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and
liabilities. Non-cash items primarily consist of the non-cash effect of impairment charges, gain on sale of long-lived assets, gain on the repurchase of the 3/4% Notes, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, property and equipment,
marketable securities and 3/4% Notes, and stock-based compensation expense.

Net cash used in operating activities was $14.3
million in the Transition Period compared to cash provided by operating activities of $6.7 million in the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010. The decline in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in the net loss of $7.3
million, a decrease in operating activities from discontinued operations of $16.7 million and changes in working capital assets and liabilities that decreased cash used in operations by $7.8 million, which was driven by the sale of the DPS Business
to PMC-Sierra as PMC-Sierra purchased substantially all accounts receivable and inventory and certain fixed assets related to the DPS Business while we retained substantially all liabilities, and to a lesser extent, due to the wind down of the
Aristos Business. This was offset by an increase in the Transition Period of non-cash charges related to depreciation and amortization of $6.0 million primarily due to a change in the remaining useful life of our intangible assets and impairment
charges of $10.2 million on our intangible assets and property and equipment, net resulting from our decisions to wind down the Aristos Business and put our building up for sale.

The decline in cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2010 compared to fiscal 2009 was primarily due to an increase in the net
loss of $7.2 million, a decrease in operating activities from discontinued operations of $10.1 million, a decrease in non-cash charges due to the impairment of goodwill of $16.9 million recorded in fiscal 2009, an increase in non-cash charges
related to stock-based compensation expense of $1.8 million due primarily to the modification of certain stock-based awards in fiscal 2010 and the impact caused by the true-up of actual forfeitures in fiscal 2009, an increase in non-cash charges
related to depreciation and amortization of $2.7 million primarily due to the amortization of purchased intangible assets from the Aristos acquisition in September 2008, a decrease in the gain sale of investments of $1.8 million, and decrease on
gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million recorded in fiscal 2009. This was offset by changes in working capital assets and liabilities that increased cash provided by operations by $6.7 million and a decrease in loss from continuing
operations, net of taxes by $2.3 million. In fiscal 2010, loss from continuing operations, net of taxes, included interest income of $8.5 million.

Investing activities:    Investing cash activities primarily consist of purchases, sales and maturities of restricted marketable securities and marketable securities, net cash
used for acquisitions, proceeds from the sale of our DPS Business and Snap Server NAS business, proceeds from the sale of investments, and purchases of

property and equipment. Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $21.1 million, $(31.9) million, $(50.4) million and $85.4 million in the Transition Period, the nine-month period
ended January 1, 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In the Transition Period, we received proceeds from
the sale of our DPS Business to PMC-Sierra of $29.3 million. We utilized cash for the net purchases of marketable securities of $7.2 million, $30.8 million and $48.9 million in the Transition Period, nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 and
fiscal 2010, respectively, while we received cash proceeds from the net sales and maturities of our marketable securities of $123.2 million in fiscal 2009. We continue to manage our cash through interest-bearing accounts. We minimized our purchasing
of property and equipment, net, from the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 to the Transition Period as we continued to focus on cost control programs. We also entered into a software license agreement with Synopsys in the nine-month
period ended January 1, 2010 for $1.8 million, of which $0.7 million was paid in the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 and the remaining $1.0 million was paid in the Transition Period. In fiscal 2009, we acquired Aristos for $38.0
million.

Financing activities:    Financing cash activities primarily consist of
repurchases of long-term debt and our common stock under the repurchase program, and employee stock option exercises. Net cash used in financing activities in the Transition Period, the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, and fiscal years
2010 and 2009 was $32.5 million, $1.7 million, $1.4 million and $223.6 million, respectively. In the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010, and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, we repurchased $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $224.5 million,
respectively, in principal amount of our 3/4% Notes for an aggregate price of $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $222.9 million, respectively. In the Transition Period, the nine-month period ended January 1, 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, we
also repurchased $34.7 million, $1.7 million, $1.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively, of our common stock in connection with our authorized stock repurchase program.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

In July 2008, our Board of Directors
authorized a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $40 million of our common stock. During the Transition Period, we repurchased approximately 11.7 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.93 for an aggregate repurchase
price of $34.3 million, excluding brokerage commissions. During fiscal 2010, we repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.46 for an aggregate repurchase price of $1.7 million, excluding brokerage
commissions. During fiscal 2009, we repurchased approximately 1.0 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $2.29 for an aggregate repurchase price of $2.4 million, excluding brokerage commissions. We have accounted for these
treasury shares, which have not been retired or reissued, under the treasury method. All purchases made under the program were made in the open market. In December 2010, we terminated the stock repurchase program. Under the authorized stock
repurchase program, we have cumulatively repurchased approximately 13.5 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate repurchase price of $38.4 million of our common stock, excluding brokerage commissions.

Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

At December 31, 2010, we had $352.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, of which approximately $4.9 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries whose functional
currency is the local currency. Our available-for-sale securities included short-term deposits, corporate obligations, commercial paper, state and municipal bonds, United States government securities, government agencies, and other debt securities
related to mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and were recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair market value, with their related unrealized gain or loss reflected as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income,
net of taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders Equity.

Our investment policy focuses on three
objectives: to preserve capital, to meet liquidity requirements and to maximize total return. Our investment policy establishes minimum ratings for each classification of investments when purchased and investment concentration is limited
to minimize risk. The policy also limits the final maturity on any investment and the overall duration of the portfolio. Given the overall market conditions, we regularly review our investment portfolio to ensure adherence to our investment
policy and to monitor individual investments for risk analysis and proper valuation.

##### Table of Contents

In the Transition Period and fiscal 2010, we did not recognize a material loss on our
securities as the unrealized losses incurred were not deemed to be other-than-temporary. We hold our marketable securities as available-for-sale and mark them to market. We expect to realize the full value of all our marketable securities upon
maturity or sale, as we have the intent and ability to hold the securities until the full value is realized. However, we cannot provide any assurance that our invested cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will not be impacted by adverse
conditions in the financial markets, which may require us to record an impairment charge that could adversely impact our financial results.

In addition, we maintain our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities with certain financial institutions, in which our balances exceed the limits that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. If the underlying financial institutions fail or other adverse conditions occur in the financial markets, our cash balances may be impacted.

We may in the future make acquisitions of businesses, and we may be required to use a significant portion of our available cash balances for such acquisitions or for working capital needs thereafter.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, we repatriated $360.6 million of undistributed earnings from Singapore to the
United States and incurred a tax liability of $17.6 million. The repatriated amounts were used to fund a qualified Domestic Reinvestment Plan, as required by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. We believe we have met the total spending
requirements of the Domestic Reinvestment Plan based on our actual spending through fiscal 2009; therefore, no further tax liabilities are expected to be incurred related to this distribution. However, fiscal years 2004 onward remain open to
examination by the U.S. taxing authorities. As a result, we may incur additional tax liabilities related to this distribution until fiscal years 2004 through 2009 are closed by the U.S. taxing authorities.

We expect no capital expenditures during fiscal 2011, without taking into account identifying and acquiring new business operations.

We have invested in technology companies through two venture capital funds, Pacven Walden Venture V Funds and APV Technology
Partners II, L.P. At December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the carrying value of such investments aggregated $1.2 million at each date, which were based on quarterly statements we receive from each of the funds. The statements are
generally received one quarter in arrears, as more timely valuations are not practical. The statements reflect the net asset value, which we use to determine the fair value for these investments, which (a) do not have a readily determinable
fair value and (b) either have the attributes of an investment company or prepare their financial statements consistent with the measurement principles of an investment company. The assumptions we use, due to lack of observable inputs, may
impact the fair value of these equity investments in future periods. We recorded a charge of $0.4 million in fiscal 2009 to the Statements of Operations due to a decline in the values of these investments. While we have seen some improvement in
global economic conditions, any adverse changes in equity investments and current market conditions may require us to record an impairment charge against all or a portion of these investments in the future.

We believe that our cash balances will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures
for at least the next 12 months. The consummation of the sale of the DPS Business materially changed our operations, including our anticipated cash needs as we are exploring strategic alternatives to maximize stockholder value going forward,
including deploying the proceeds received for the DPS Business and our other assets in seeking business acquisition opportunities and taking other actions to redeploy our capital. In addition, should the scale of potential opportunities, prevailing
economic conditions and/or financial, business and other factors beyond our control adversely affect our estimates of our future cash requirements, we could be required to fund our cash requirements by alternative financing. In these instances, we
may seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity or debt financings or from other sources. As a result, we may not be able to obtain adequate or favorable equity financing, if needed, due in part to our shares of common stock
currently trading on the Pink Sheets. Any equity financing we obtain may dilute existing ownership interests, and any debt financing could contain covenants that impose limitations on the conduct of our business. There can be no assurance that
additional financing, if needed, would be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

We are a party to litigation matters and claims,
including those related to intellectual property and businesses that we wound down or sold, which are normal in the course of our operations, and while the results of such litigation matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe
that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, because of the nature and inherent uncertainties of litigation, should the outcome of these
actions be unfavorable, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

Convertible Subordinated Notes

In fiscal 2010, we repurchased a total of $0.1 million at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3/4% Notes. At December 31, 2010, we had a remaining liability of $0.3 million of
aggregate principal amount related to our 3/4% Notes that are due in December 2023. Each remaining holder of the 3/4% Notes may require us to purchase all or a portion of our 3/4% Notes on December 22, 2013, December 22, 2018 or upon
the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 3/4% Notes) at a price equal to the principal amount of 3/4% Notes being purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest and we may redeem some or all of the 3/4% Notes
for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. We may seek to make open market repurchases of the remaining balance of our 3/4% Notes
within the next twelve months (See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of our debt and equity transactions).

Intellectual Property and Other Indemnification Obligations

We have
entered into agreements with PMC-Sierra that include certain indemnification obligations related to the sale of the DPS Business. These indemnification obligations generally require us to compensate the other party for certain damages and costs
incurred as a result of third party claims. In these circumstances, payment by us is conditional on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular agreements, which procedures typically allow us to challenge
the other partys claims. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by it under these agreements.
In addition, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our directors and certain of our officers for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our request in such capacity. These indemnification agreements are
not subject to a maximum loss clause; however, we maintain a director and officer insurance policy which may cover all or a portion of the liabilities arising from our obligation to indemnify our directors and officers. It is not possible to make a
reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, we
have not incurred significant costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to such agreements and no amount has been accrued in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements with respect to these indemnification guarantees.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations at December 31, 2010 are as follows:

|(1) | Short-term debt includes anticipated interest payments on our 3/4% Notes that are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. As we will seek to make open market
repurchases of the remaining balance of our 3/4% Notes within the next twelve months, we have continued to classify the 3/4% Notes as short-term obligations, due less than one year. Any future repurchases of our 3/4% Notes would reduce anticipated
interest and/or principal payments.

|(4) | Tax obligations relate to liabilities for uncertain tax positions, which were reflected in Other long-term liabilities. The timing of any payments which
could result from the unrecognized tax benefits will depend upon a number of factors. Management believes that it is not reasonably possible that the net unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months. For the purposes
of this table, we have disclosed the gross unrecognized tax benefits in the one to three years column based on our estimate on the timing of payment for the remaining tax obligations.

Purchase Obligations

Purchase obligations relate to our contractual commitments primarily for services. We have entered into certain service agreements that
are enforceable and legally binding, and contain certain termination provisions which are non-cancelable. At December 31, 2010, our purchase obligations were minimal, which was based on our current needs and our expectations that our vendors
will fulfill services in fiscal 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Consolidated Financial Statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies essential to our Consolidated Financial
Statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Although we believe that our judgments and estimates are appropriate and correct, actual future results
may differ materially from our estimates.

We believe the following to be our critical accounting policies because they are
both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and they require critical management judgments and estimates about matters that are uncertain. If actual results or events differ materially from those contemplated
by us in making these estimates, our reported financial condition and results of operation for future periods could be materially affected. See Risk Factors for certain risks relating to our future operating results.

Fair Value Measurements:    We measure the fair value of our cash equivalents and other assets as the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

Level
1 applies to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

Level 2applies to observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

Level 3 applies to unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value
hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

##### Table of Contents

As of December 31, 2010, we did not have any Level 3 recurring financial assets or
liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities Valuation:Our marketable
securities are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair market value, inclusive of unrealized gains and losses, as of the respective balance sheet date. Marketable securities consist of corporate obligations, commercial paper, state
and municipal bonds, United States government securities, government agencies, and other debt securities related to mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities Our Consolidated Balance Sheet is updated at each reporting period to reflect the change
in the fair value of our marketable securities that have declined below or risen above their original cost. Our Consolidated Statements of Operations reflect a charge in the period in which a determination is made that the decline in fair value is
considered to be other-than-temporary. We do not hold our securities for trading or speculative purposes.

Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets:    Long-lived assets primarily relate to our intangible assets, property and equipment and assets held for sale. Intangible assets were amortized over their estimated useful lives, which originally ranged
from three months to five years and were subsequently changed, during the Transition Period, to useful lives which ranged from two months to approximately 5.25 months, reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected
to be realized. Property and equipment were stated at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which originally ranged from three to forty years. Assets held for sale are
recorded at the lower of the carrying value or the estimated fair value less cost to sell and are not depreciated.

We
regularly perform reviews to determine if facts or circumstances are present, either internal or external, which would indicate that the carrying values of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable. Indicators include, but are not limited to, a
significant decline in the market price of a long-lived asset, an expectation that more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life and a current
period operating or cash flow loss combined with a historical or projected operating or cash flow loss.

The recoverability of
the carrying value of the long-lived assets, other than goodwill, is based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows derived from the use of the asset. If a long-lived asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the
difference between the long-lived assets fair value and its carrying value. The estimate of fair value of long-lived assets is based on a discounted estimated future cash flows method and application of a discount rate commensurate with the
risks inherent in our current business model. Our current business model contains managements subjective estimates and judgments; however, actual results may be materially different than the assumptions made by management.

Income Taxes:    We account for income taxes for uncertain tax positions using a two-step process to determine
the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained,
the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in our financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized
upon ultimate settlement. In addition, we continued to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We must make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and
judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets, tax credits, benefits, deductions and liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes, as well as the
interest and penalties related to those uncertain tax positions. Significant changes to these estimates may result in an increase or decrease to our tax provision in subsequent periods.

We must assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets. We consider historical levels of income,
expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance. If recovery is not likely, we must increase our provision for taxes
by recording a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that we estimate will not ultimately be recoverable.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, the calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in
the application of complex global tax regulations. We recognize liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the United States and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes and related
interest will be due. If we ultimately determine that payment of these amounts is unnecessary, we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which we determine that the liability is no longer necessary. We record an
additional charge in our provision for taxes in the period in which we determine that the recorded tax liability is less than we expect the ultimate assessment to be.

Revenue Recognition:    We recognized revenue from the majority of our product sales, including sales to OEMs, upon shipment from us, provided that title has passed, persuasive
evidence of an arrangement existed, the price was fixed or determinable and collectibility was reasonably assured. Revenue from sales where software is essential to the functionality was recognized when passage of title and risk of ownership was
transferred to customers, persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, which was typically upon sale of product by our customer, the price was fixed or determinable and collectibility was probable. We considered many different criteria for
evaluating revenue recognition on sales transactions. The application of the appropriate accounting principle to our revenue was dependent upon specific transactions or combinations of transactions. Significant management judgments and estimates
were made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period.

Our channel arrangements provided for
certain product rotation rights. Additionally, we permitted the return of products subject to certain conditions. We established allowances for expected product returns. We also established allowances for rebate payments under certain marketing
programs entered into by our channel partners. These allowances were recorded as direct reductions of revenue and accounts receivable. We made estimates of future returns and rebates based primarily on our past experience as well as the volume of
products in the channel, trends in channel inventory, economic trends that might impact customer demand for our products (including the competitive environment), the economic value of the rebates being offered and other factors. Actual returns and
rebates have not been significantly different from our estimates.

We maintained an allowance for doubtful accounts for losses
that we estimated would come from our customers inability to make required payments. We made estimates of the collectibility of our accounts receivable by considering factors such as historical bad debt experience, specific customer
creditworthiness, the age of the accounts receivable balances and current economic trends that may affect a customers ability to pay.

We do not expect to record any revenue in future quarters, unless a business is acquired.

Inventory:    Inventory was stated at the lower of cost (principally standard cost which approximated actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. The valuation
of inventory required us to estimate obsolete or excess inventory as well as inventory that were not of salable quality. The determination of obsolete or excess inventory required us to estimate the future demand for our products within specific
time horizons, generally six to twelve months. We do not expect to record any inventory in future quarters, unless a business is acquired.

Impairment Review

In
December 2009, we announced that we initiated a process to pursue the potential sale or disposition of certain of our assets or business operations. As a result of this announcement, we evaluated our long-lived assets to determine whether the
carrying value would be recoverable in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. As we continued through this sale process on certain of our assets or business operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, we reevaluated the recoverability of our
long-lived assets carrying value at March 31, 2010. Based on our analysis, our long-lived assets were not considered impaired in either the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2010 as the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows
exceeded the carrying value of our long-lived assets of $27.4 million at March 31, 2010. The sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows was weighted to take into consideration the possible outcomes of whether the long-lived assets,
which were considered as one asset group based on the lowest level of independent cash flows generated, would be retained and utilized as opposed to sold or disposed.

In June 2010, we made a decision to wind down our Aristos Business and notified our
customers that final shipments would occur by the end of September 2010. We also anticipated putting our building up for sale towards the end of the Transition Period. As a result of these additional actions, we evaluated the carrying value of our
long-lived assets at July 2, 2010 and determined that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. We then measured the impairment loss and recognized the amount in which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value
by recording an impairment charge of $10.2 million in the Transition Period, of which $5.4 million and $4.8 million were reflected in Cost of revenues and Impairment of long-lived assets, respectively, in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations. Of the $10.2 million impairment charge of our long-lived assets recorded in the Transition Period, $6.1 million related to the write off of our intangible assets and the remaining $4.1 million related to the reduction of
the carrying value of our property and equipment, net, to our estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was based on the market approach and considered the perspective of market participants using or exchanging our long-lived assets. The
estimation of the impairment involved assumptions that require judgment by us. During the Transition Period, we put our building up for sale and have reclassified it from Property and equipment, net, of $6.0 million, which represents its
estimated fair value, less cost to sell, to Assets held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010. While classified as held for sale, we may need to reassess the fair value of the building at each of our
reporting periods and determine whether the carrying value is recoverable. If the carrying value is not deemed to be recoverable based on current market conditions, we may be required to record additional impairment charges for our long-lived assets
in the future.

Acquisitions

On September 3, 2008, we completed the acquisition of Aristos, a provider of RAID technology to the data storage industry. The Merger Agreement provided for our acquisition of Aristos through a
merger in which Aristos became our wholly-owned subsidiary. The acquisition of Aristos was to allow us to expand into adjacent RAID markets that we believed would provide us with growth opportunities, including blade servers, enterprise-class
external storage systems and performance desktops, and would provide us with a strong ASIC roadmap. In addition, this acquisition enabled us to pursue new OEM opportunities and expand our channel product offerings containing unified serial
technologies.

We acquired Aristos for a purchase price of approximately $38.9 million, which consisted of:
(i) approximately $28.7 million that was paid to certain Aristos senior preferred stockholders and warrant holders; (ii) approximately $3.2 million under a management liquidation pool established by Aristos prior to completion of the
merger, which was immediately paid upon closing of the transaction; (iii) approximately $6.2 million to retire and satisfy certain commercial obligations and payables of Aristos; and (iv) $0.8 million accrued in direct transaction fees,
including legal, valuation and accounting fees.

Aristos Holdback:    A portion of the
Aristos acquisition price totaling $4.3 million referred to herein as the Aristos Holdback, was held in an escrow account to secure potential indemnification obligations of Aristos stockholders for unknown liabilities that may have existed as of the
acquisition date. The Aristos Holdback was to be paid in two installments to the former Aristos stockholders during the twelfth and eighteenth months after the acquisition closing date, except for funds necessary to provide for any pending claims.
The Aristos Holdback of $4.3 million was paid in full in fiscal 2010.

Management Liquidation
Pool:    As part of the Merger Agreement, we agreed to pay certain former employees of Aristos a total of $5.6 million through a management liquidation pool established by Aristos prior to the completion of the merger. Of
the $5.6 million, $3.2 million was immediately paid upon closing of the transaction and was included in the purchase price allocation of the cost to acquire Aristos. The remaining $2.4 million was payable over time, not to exceed twelve months,
contingent upon the continued employment of certain employees with us, and was expensed to the Consolidated Statements of Operations as earned. In fiscal years 2010 and 2009, we recorded expense of $0.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the management liquidation pool.

The Aristos acquisition was accounted for as
a business combination and, accordingly, the results of Aristos have been included in our consolidated results of operations and financial position from the date of acquisition.

The allocation of the Aristos purchase price to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on valuation techniques such as the discounted cash
flows and weighted average cost methods used in the high technology industry using assumptions and estimates from management to calculate fair value.

Dispositions

DPS Business

On June 8, 2010, we consummated a transaction with PMC-Sierra in which PMC-Sierra purchased certain assets related to the DPS
Business and PMC-Sierra assumed certain of our liabilities related to the DPS Business. The transaction was pursuant to the Purchase Agreement entered into by PMC-Sierra and ADPT on May 8, 2010. The purchase price for the DPS Business was $34.3
million, of which $29.3 million was received by us upon the closing of the transaction and the remaining $5.0 million is being withheld in an escrow account, or DPS Holdback, to secure potential indemnification obligations pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement with PMC-Sierra. The DPS Holdback is to be released to us on June 8, 2011, one year after the consummation of the sale of our DPS Business, except for funds necessary to provide for any pending or satisfied claims, and will be
recognized as contingent consideration in discontinued operations when received. As of December 31, 2010, the full DPS Holdback of $5.0 million remains outstanding for potential indemnification obligations that may arise. Under the Purchase
Agreement, PMC-Sierra purchased substantially all accounts receivable and inventory related to the DPS Business and certain fixed assets and intellectual property (other than certain patents for which PMC-Sierra received a perpetual non-exclusive
royalty free license). Included in the intellectual property assigned to PMC-Sierra was our former brand name, Adaptec. In addition, certain contracts were assigned to PMC-Sierra. PMC-Sierra has also assumed the obligations for certain of our leased
facilities, primarily related to international sites used in the DPS Business, certain employee retention obligations, certain obligations related to a defined benefit retirement plan at one of the foreign subsidiaries and support and service
liabilities. Expenses incurred in the transaction primarily included approximately $3.4 million for commissions and legal and accounting fees. We recorded a gain of $10.7 million, net of taxes of $6.6 million, on the disposal of the DPS Business in
the Transition Period in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On June 8, 2010, we also entered into a transition service agreement with PMC-Sierra, in which we provided certain services required for the operation of the DPS Business through December 2010 and
the direct costs associated with providing these services were reimbursed by PMC-Sierra. As a result of the transition service agreement, cash of $1.7 million was received on behalf of PMC-Sierra upon collection of accounts receivable and was
classified as Restricted cash and included in Accounts payable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010. In the Transition Period, we incurred approximately $1.3 million in direct costs under the
transition service agreement with PMC-Sierra, which were reimbursed by PMC-Sierra. As of December 31, 2010, PMC-Sierra owed us $0.1 million under the transition service agreement, which was included in Other current assets on our
Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Snap Server NAS Business

On June 27, 2008, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Overland for the sale of the Snap Server NAS business for $3.3 million, of which $2.1 million was received by us upon the closing of
the transaction and the remaining $1.2 million was to be received on the twelve-month anniversary of the closing of the transaction pursuant to a promissory note issued to us. In fiscal 2009, we established a reserve for the remaining $1.2 million
of this receivable as a result of the financial difficulties Overland had reported. In fiscal 2010, we amended the promissory note agreement with Overland, which allowed Overland to pay us the remaining $1.2 million receivable plus accrued interest
by March 31, 2010; however, we received the final payment of $0.1 million from Overland in June 2010. Due to our continued concern regarding Overlands ability to pay us, we released the reserve on the receivable as cash was collected.
Under the terms of the agreement, Overland granted us a nonexclusive license to certain intellectual property and we provided Overland limited support services to help ensure a smooth transition. Expenses incurred in the transaction primarily
include

approximately $0.5 million for broker, legal and accounting fees in fiscal 2009. In addition, we accrued $0.1 million for lease obligations in fiscal 2009. We recorded a gain of $0.1 million,
$1.2 million and $4.6 million on the disposal of the Snap Server NAS business in the Transition Period and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively, in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations. To date, we have recorded a cumulative gain of $5.9 million through the Transition Period on the disposal of the Snap Server NAS business in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk related to our
investment portfolio and debt issuances. As of December 31, 2010, our available-for-sale debt investments, excluding those classified as cash equivalents, totaled $314.1 million (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and
included corporate obligations, commercial paper, state and municipal bonds, United States government securities, government agencies, and other debt securities related to mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities with remaining maturities beyond
three months from the date of purchase, all of which are of high investment grade as specified by our investment policy. Our investment policy also limits investment concentration, the final maturity on any investment and the overall duration of the
portfolio to preserve capital, to meet liquidity requirements and to maximize total return. These investments are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our balance sheet at fair market value with
their related unrealized gain or loss reflected as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes. Given the overall market conditions, we regularly review our investment portfolio to ensure adherence to our
investment policy and to monitor individual investments for risk analysis and proper valuation. If the yield-to-maturity on our current available-for-sale investments declines by 10%, our Interest and other income, net in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations would be negatively impacted by approximately $0.4 million.

Equity Price Risk

We consider our direct exposure to equity price risk to be minimal. We have invested in technology companies through two venture capital
funds. As of December 31, 2010, the carrying value of such investments aggregated $1.2 million (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). We monitor our equity investments on a periodic basis, by recording these
investments based on quarterly statements we receive from the funds. The statements are generally received one quarter in arrears, as more timely valuations are not practical. In the event that the carrying value of our equity investments exceeds
their fair value, or the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the carrying value is reduced to its current fair value. While we have seen some improvement in global economic conditions, any adverse changes in equity investments
and current market conditions may require us to record an impairment charge against all or a portion of the investments in the future. Such an action would adversely affect our financial results.

Foreign Currency Risk

We translate foreign currencies into U.S Dollars for reporting purposes and currency fluctuations can have an impact on our results. For
the Transition Period and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, there was no material currency exchange impact from our intercompany transactions. The amount of local currency obligations settled in any period is not significant to our cash flows or results
of operations, although we continuously monitor the amount and timing of those obligations. A 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates for our cash, cash

equivalents and marketable securities that are denominated in foreign currencies would negatively impact our annual financial results by approximately $0.5 million.

Item 8.Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

See the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) on page 45 of this Transition Report on Form 10-K for the Consolidated Financial
Statements at December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 and for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2010 and the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, as well as the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial
Disclosure

Not applicable.

Item 9A.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer, or Interim CEO, and our Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, we conducted an evaluation of
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Transition Report on Form 10-K. Based upon that evaluation, our Interim CEO and our
CFO have concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act
(i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC, rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Interim CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the
Exchange Act) that occurred during the three-month period ended December 31, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal
control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework set forth in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
December 31, 2010.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 has
been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in Item 15(a) of this Transition Report on Form 10-K.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of these inherent limitations, no evaluation

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of ADPT Corporation,

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1), present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ADPT Corporation and its
subsidiaries at December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the nine months in the period ended December 31, 2010 and for each of the two years in the period ended March 31,
2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Companys management is responsible for these
financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Managements Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Companys internal control over financial
reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit
of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors
of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description

ADPT Corporation (ADPT or the Company) is primarily focused on capital redeployment and
identification of new, profitable business operations in which it can utilize its existing working capital and maximize the use of the Companys net operating losses (NOLs) in the future. In September 2010, the Company completed the
wind down of its products and associated technology obtained from its acquisition of Aristos Logic Corporation (Aristos Business), which provided enterprise-class external storage products, including Application Specific Integrated
Circuits (ASICs) and software, to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). The Company considered all of its products to be similar in nature and function. The Company also operates in one segment and did not derive any
amount of its revenue from services or support. For details regarding the Companys historical business, which has been accounted for as discontinued operations, refer to Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Basis of Presentation

In December 2010, the Company changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. As a result of this change, the
Companys consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included the nine-month transition period from April 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010 (the transition period for fiscal 2010) in its Transition Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The disclosures surrounding the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto remain unchanged for the twelve month period from April 1 to March 31 for fiscal years ended
March 31, 2010 (fiscal 2010) and March 31, 2009 (fiscal 2009) or (collectively fiscal years 2010 and 2009). Subsequent to this Transition Report on Form 10-K, the Companys reports on Form 10-K will
cover the calendar year from January 1 to December 31 with historical periods remaining unchanged.

The
Companys Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of ADPT and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates and Reclassifications

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management utilizes certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to
review of long-lived assets for impairments, non-controlling interests in certain funds, stock-based compensation expense, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, tax contingencies, restructuring costs, litigation
and other loss contingencies, goodwill, purchased intangible asset valuations, self-insurance, revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, sales returns and allowances, warranty reserves and inventory reserves. The actual results the
Company experiences may differ materially and adversely from its original estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made
to prior period reported amounts to conform to the current period presentation, including the Companys disclosures surrounding discontinued operations, as discussed further in Notes 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14 and 20 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements. The discontinued operations included the reclassification of the Companys financial statements and related disclosures for all periods presented, except for the historical Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated
Statements of Stockholders Equity. These reclassifications had no impact on net loss, total assets or total stockholders equity. Unless otherwise indicated, the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements relate to the discussion of
the Companys continuing operations.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Foreign Currency Translation

For foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is the local currency, the Company translates assets and liabilities to United States
Dollars using period-end exchange rates, and translates revenues and expenses using average monthly exchange rates. The resulting cumulative translation adjustments are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes, as
a separate component of stockholders equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For foreign subsidiaries whose
functional currency is the United States Dollar, certain assets and liabilities are remeasured at the period-end or historical rates are used as appropriate. Revenues and expenses are remeasured at the average monthly exchange rates. Currency
transaction gains and losses are recognized in current operations and have not been material to the Companys operating results for the periods presented.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Companys
financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these items. Investments in
available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices or estimated based on quoted market prices for financial instruments with similar characteristics.

The related cost basis for the Companys 3/4% Convertible Senior Notes due December 22, 2023 (the 3/4% Notes) at
both December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 was $0.3 million. Although the remaining balance of its 3/4% Notes is relatively small and the market trading is very limited, the Company expects the cost basis of $0.3 million at both
December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 for the 3/4% Notes to approximate fair value. The Companys convertible debt is recorded at its carrying value, not the estimated fair value.

Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

Cash equivalents consist of liquid investments with remaining maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase. Marketable securities consist of corporate obligations, commercial paper, state
and municipal bonds, United States government securities, government agencies, and other debt securities related to mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities with remaining maturities beyond three-months from the date of purchase. The Company
classifies its marketable securities as short-term, even though certain securities mature beyond one year, as the Company has the ability to liquidate these securities at any time. The Companys policy is to protect the value of its investment
portfolio and minimize principal risk by earning returns based on current interest rates.

Marketable securities, including
equity securities, are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair market value and unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes as a separate
component of stockholders equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The marketable securities are adjusted for accretion of premiums and amortization of discounts and such accretion or amortization is included in Interest and other
income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. When the fair value of an investment declines below its original cost, the Company considers all available evidence to evaluate whether the decline in value is other-than-temporary.
Among other things, the Company considers the duration and extent to which the market value has declined relative to its cost basis and economic factors influencing the markets. Unrealized losses considered to be other-than-temporary are recorded to
Interest and other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which the determination is made. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined based on the average cost method and are included in
Interest and other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not hold its securities for trading or speculative purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Concentration of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade accounts receivable.
The Company invests in high-credit quality investments, maintained with major financial institutions. The Company, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure through diversification, and management regularly monitors the composition of its
investment portfolio for compliance with the Companys investment policies.

The Company primarily sold its products to
OEMs throughout the world. Sales to customers were predominantly denominated in United States Dollars and, as a result, the Company believed its foreign currency risk relating to sales was minimal. The Company performed ongoing credit evaluations of
its customers financial condition and generally did not require collateral from its customers. The Company maintained an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of all accounts receivable.

There were no accounts receivables at December 31, 2010. Three customers accounted for 32%, 15% and 13% of gross accounts receivable
at March 31, 2010. In the transition period for fiscal 2010, Apple, Inc. (Apple) and International Business Machines (IBM) accounted for 59% and 35% of the Companys total net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2010,
Apple accounted for 92% of the Companys total net revenues. In fiscal 2009, Apple and Xiotech Corporation accounted for 70% and 14% of the Companys total net revenues, respectively.

The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity, including its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, will be
adequate to support its operating and capital investment activities for the next twelve months.

Inventories

There were no inventories at December 31, 2010. Inventories at March 31, 2010 were stated at the lower of cost or market, with
cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company wrote down inventories based on estimated excess and obsolete inventories, determined primarily by future demand forecasts. At the point of loss recognition, a new, lower cost basis for
that inventory is established, and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis.

Goodwill

Goodwill represented the excess of the purchase price paid over
the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill was not amortized, but instead was reviewed annually, in the Companys fourth quarter of each year, and whenever events or changes in
circumstances occurred which indicated that goodwill might be impaired. Impairment of goodwill was tested at the Company level, as the Company contained only one reporting unit, and compared the net book value, including goodwill, to the fair value.
To determine fair value, the Companys review process used the income approach and the market approach. The Company also considered its market capitalization on the dates of its impairment tests in determining the fair value of the Company. If
the net book value of the Company exceeds its implied fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. For details regarding goodwill and associated impairment charges taken
in fiscal 2009 refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Intangible Assets, Net

Intangible assets, net, consisted of acquisition-related intangible assets, software license agreement, intellectual property and warrants
and were carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets, net,

were amortized over their estimated useful lives, which originally ranged from three months to five years, and were subsequently changed, during the transition period for fiscal 2010, to useful
lives which ranged from two months to approximately 5.25 months, reflecting the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be realized. For details regarding intangible assets, net, refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment, net, were stated at cost and were depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company capitalizes substantially all
costs related to the purchase and implementation of software projects used for internal business operations. Capitalized internal-use software costs primarily include license fees, consulting fees and any associated direct labor costs and were
amortized over the estimated useful life of the asset, typically a three-year to five-year period.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company regularly performs reviews to determine if facts or circumstances are present, either internal or external,
which would indicate if the carrying values of its long-lived assets are impaired. If a long-lived asset is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the difference between the long-lived assets fair value and its carrying
value. The recoverability of the carrying value of the long-lived assets, other than goodwill, was based on the estimated future undiscounted cash flows derived from the use of the asset. The estimate of fair value of long-lived assets was based on
a discounted estimated future cash flows method and applying a discount rate commensurate with the risks inherent in the Companys business model. The impairment of long-lived assets is included in Cost of sales and Impairment
of long-lived assets in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For details regarding long-lived assets impairment analysis or charges taken in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, refer to Notes 7 to
the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has employee and director stock compensation plans, which are described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company measures and recognizes stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based awards based on estimated fair values using a straight-line amortization method over the respective requisite service period of the awards and adjusts it for
estimated forfeitures. In addition, the Company applies the simplified method to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid in capital pool related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, which is available to absorb tax
shortfalls. Tax shortfalls arise when actual tax benefits realized upon the exercise of stock options are less than the tax benefit recorded in the financial statements. Disclosure provisions related to equity instruments, including stock-based
compensation expense, are discussed further in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition

The application of the appropriate accounting principle to the Companys revenue was dependent upon specific transactions or
combination of transactions. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates were made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may have resulted in the amount and timing of
revenue for any period if management had made different judgments or utilized different estimates.

The Company recognized
revenue from its product sales, including sales to OEMs, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price was fixed or

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

determinable and collectibility was reasonably assured. These criteria were usually met upon shipment from the Company, provided that the risk of loss has transferred to the customer, customer
acceptance was obtained or acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has established a historical pattern that acceptance by the customer has been fulfilled. The Companys sales were based on customer purchase orders, and to a lesser
extent, contractual agreements, which provided that evidence of an arrangement existed.

The Companys distributor
arrangements provided distributors with certain product rotation rights. Additionally, the Company permitted distributors to return products subject to certain conditions. The Company established allowances for expected product returns. The Company
also establishes allowances for rebate payments under certain marketing programs entered into with distributors. These allowances comprise the Companys revenue reserves and are recorded as direct reductions of revenue and accounts receivable.
The Company made estimates of future returns band rebates based primarily on its past experience as well as the volume of products in the distributor channel, trends in distributor inventory, economic trends that might impact customer demand for its
products (including the competitive environment), the economic value of the rebates being offered and other factors. In the past, actual returns and rebates have not been significantly different from the Companys estimates.

For products which contained software, where software was essential to the functionality of the product, or software product sales, the
Company recognized revenue when passage of title and risk of ownership was transferred to customers, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which was typically upon sale of product by the customer, the price was fixed or determinable and
collectibility was probable. For software sales that were considered multiple element transactions, the entire fee from the arrangement was allocated to each respective element based on its vendor specific fair value or upon the residual method and
recognized when revenue recognition criteria for each element were met. Vendor specific fair value for each element is established based on the sales price charged when the same element is sold separately or based upon a renewal rate.

Software Development Costs

The Companys policy is to capitalize software development costs incurred after technological feasibility has been demonstrated, which is determined to be the time a working model has been completed.
Through December 31, 2010, costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility have not been significant and all software development costs have been charged to Research and development in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes for uncertain tax positions using a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine
the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed more-likely-than-not to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the
Companys financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. At December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010,
the Company had recorded liabilities of $11.4 million and $3.7 million, respectively, for uncertain tax positions and the Company continues to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense within
Benefit from (provision for) income taxes in its Consolidated Statements of Operations. To the extent that accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of
the overall income tax provision in the period that such determination is made. The amount of interest and penalties accrued during the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 was immaterial. Due to the complexity and
uncertainty associated with the

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)



Companys tax contingencies, the Company cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period in which cash settlement will be made for the Companys liabilities associated with
uncertain tax positions.

The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach, which requires
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements, but have not been reflected in the Companys taxable
income. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. The Company provides a valuation allowance to the extent that the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that it will
generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets. Predicting future taxable income is difficult, and requires the use of significant judgment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended the requirements for revenue recognition, which eliminates the use of the residual method and incorporates the use of
an estimated selling price to allocate arrangement consideration. In addition, the revenue recognition guidance amends the scope to exclude tangible products that contain software and non-software components that function together to deliver the
products essential functionality. The amendments to the accounting standards related to revenue recognition are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2010, which will begin with the Companys first quarter of fiscal
2011, unless adopted early. Upon adoption, the Company may apply the guidance retrospectively or prospectively for new or materially modified arrangements. Since the Company completed the wind down of its product offerings by September 2010, this
accounting standard will have no financial impact in future quarters, until a business is acquired.

In January 2010, the FASB
amended the disclosure requirements for the fair value measurements for recurring and nonrecurring non-financial assets and liabilities. The guidance provides that an entity shall disclose any significant transfers of assets and liabilities between
those that are actively traded in markets (level 1) and those that are not actively traded but have observable inputs (level 2), and the reasons for the transfers. The disclosure requirements regarding the transfers of assets and liabilities, which
was effective for interim or fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2009, or which began with the Companys fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, did not have a financial impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements;
however, the disclosure requirements mandated by this accounting standard are discussed further in Notes 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The guidance also provides that disclosures for assets and liabilities with significant unobservable
inputs (level 3) should separately disclose the purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in a rollforward as opposed to aggregating it as one. The disclosure requirements regarding further details surrounding assets and liabilities utilizing
level 3 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, which will begin with the Companys first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company does not anticipate that the additional disclosure requirements will have a material
impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Acquisition

On September 3, 2008, the Company completed the acquisition of Aristos Logic Corporation (Aristos), a provider of
redundant array of independent disks, or (RAID), technology to the data storage industry, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of August 27, 2008 (the Merger Agreement) by and among Adaptec, Aristos,
Ariel Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Adaptec, and TPG Ventures, L.P., solely in its capacity as the representative of stockholders of Aristos. The Merger Agreement provided for the Companys acquisition of Aristos through a
merger in which Aristos became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Aristos was to allow the Company to expand into adjacent RAID markets that the Company believed would provide it with growth opportunities, including blade
servers, enterprise-class external

storage systems and performance desktops, and would provide the Company with a strong ASIC roadmap. In addition, this acquisition enabled the Company to pursue new OEM opportunities and expand
its channel product offerings containing unified serial technologies.

The Company acquired Aristos for a purchase price of
approximately $38.9 million, which consisted of: (i) approximately $28.7 million that was paid to certain Aristos senior preferred stockholders and warrant holders; (ii) approximately $3.2 million under a management liquidation pool
established by Aristos prior to completion of the merger, which was immediately paid upon closing of the transaction; (iii) approximately $6.2 million to retire and satisfy certain commercial obligations and payables of Aristos; and
(iv) $0.8 million accrued in direct transaction fees, including legal, valuation and accounting fees. A summary of the purchase cost was as follows (in thousands):

Aristos Holdback:    A portion of the Aristos acquisition price totaling
$4.3 million was held in an escrow account (Aristos Holdback) to secure potential indemnification obligations of Aristos stockholders for unknown liabilities that may have existed as of the acquisition date. The Aristos Holdback was to
be paid in two installments to the former Aristos stockholders during the twelfth and eighteenth months after the acquisition closing date, except for funds necessary to provide for any pending claims. The Aristos Holdback of $4.3 million was paid
in full in fiscal 2010.

Management Liquidation Pool:    As part of the Merger Agreement, the
Company agreed to pay certain former employees of Aristos a total of $5.6 million through a management liquidation pool established by Aristos prior to the completion of the merger. Of the $5.6 million, $3.2 million was immediately paid upon closing
of the transaction and was included in the purchase price allocation of the cost to acquire Aristos. The remaining $2.4 million was payable over time, not to exceed twelve months, contingent upon the continued employment of certain employees with
the Company, and was expensed to the Consolidated Statements of Operations as earned. In fiscal years 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded expense of $0.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to
the management liquidation pool.

The Aristos acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and, accordingly,
the results of Aristos have been included in the Companys consolidated results of operations and financial position from the date of acquisition. The allocation of the Aristos purchase price to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed is summarized below, and was based on valuation techniques such as the discounted cash flows and weighted average cost methods used in the high technology industry using assumptions and estimates from management to

The values allocated to core and existing technologies, customer relationships and backlog created as a
result of the acquisition of Aristos were initially amortized over estimated useful lives of sixty months, thirty-six months and three months, respectively, and were subsequently changed during the transition period for fiscal 2010 to approximately
5.25 months (Note 7), reflecting the period in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be realized. The total value allocated to the acquired intangible assets as a result of the Aristos acquisition was initially amortized over an
estimated weighted average useful life of fifty-five months. No residual value was estimated for the intangible assets. Goodwill was not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Note 2. Acquisition (Continued)



Pro forma financial information:The following
unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal 2009 presents the combined results of the Company and Aristos, as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period presented. Such pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of
what actually would have occurred had the Aristos acquisition been in effect for the periods presented nor are they indicative of results that could occur in the future. Certain adjustments have been made to the combined results of operations,
including the amortization of acquired other intangible assets, a reduction to interest income to reflect the cash paid for the acquisition, a reduction to interest expense related to the Aristos debt and the elimination of the change in fair value
of preferred stock warrants, which were extinguished as part of the Merger Agreement, and the elimination of share-based compensation expense recognized by Aristos, as the Company did not assume any share-based awards as part of the merger. The pro
forma financial results for fiscal 2009 were as follows:

Note 3. Discontinued Operations

DPS Business:On June 8, 2010, the Company consummated a transaction with PMC-Sierra,
Inc. (PMC-Sierra) in which PMC-Sierra purchased certain assets related to the Companys business of providing data storage hardware and software solutions and products (the DPS Business) and PMC-Sierra assumed certain
liabilities of the Company related to the DPS Business. The transaction was pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) entered into by PMC-Sierra and ADPT on May 8, 2010. The purchase price for the DPS
Business was $34.3 million, of which $29.3 million was received by the Company upon the closing of the transaction and the remaining $5.0 million is being withheld in an escrow account (DPS Holdback) to secure potential indemnification
obligations pursuant to the Purchase Agreement with PMC-Sierra. The DPS Holdback is to be released to the Company on June 8, 2011, one year after the consummation of the sale of the Companys DPS Business, except for funds necessary to
provide for any pending or satisfied claims, and will be recognized as contingent consideration in discontinued operations when received. As of December 31, 2010, the full DPS Holdback of $5.0 million remains outstanding for potential
indemnification obligations that may arise. Under the Purchase Agreement, PMC-Sierra purchased substantially all accounts receivable and inventory related to the DPS Business and certain fixed assets and intellectual property (other than certain
patents for which PMC-Sierra received a perpetual non-exclusive royalty free license). Included in the intellectual property assigned to PMC-Sierra was the Companys former brand name, Adaptec. In addition, certain contracts were assigned to
PMC-Sierra. PMC-Sierra has also assumed the obligations for certain of the Companys leased facilities, primarily related to international sites used in the DPS Business, certain employee retention obligations, certain obligations related to a
defined benefit retirement plan at one of the foreign subsidiaries and support and service liabilities. Expenses incurred in the transaction

primarily included approximately $3.4 million for commissions and legal and accounting fees. The Company recorded a gain of $10.7 million, net of taxes of $6.6 million, on the disposal of the
DPS Business in the transition period for fiscal 2010 in Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of taxes, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On June 8, 2010, the Company also entered into a transition service agreement with PMC-Sierra, in which the Company provided certain
services required for the operation of the DPS Business through December 2010 and the direct costs associated with providing these services were reimbursed by PMC-Sierra. As a result of the transition service agreement, cash of $1.7 million was
received on behalf of PMC-Sierra upon collection of accounts receivable and was classified as Restricted cash and included in Accounts payable on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010. In
the transition period for fiscal 2010, the Company incurred approximately $1.3 million in direct costs under the transition service agreement with PMC-Sierra, which were reimbursed by PMC-Sierra. As of December 31, 2010, PMC-Sierra owed the
Company $0.1 million under the transition service agreement, which was included in Other current assets on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Net revenues and the components of income (loss) related to the DPS Business included in discontinued operations, were as follows:

Snap Server Network Attached Storage (NAS)
Business:On June 27, 2008, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Overland Storage, Inc. (Overland) for the sale of the Snap Server NAS portion of the Companys former
Storage Solutions Group segment (the Snap Server NAS business) for $3.3 million, of which $2.1 million was received by the Company upon the closing of the transaction and the remaining $1.2 million was to be received on the twelve-month
anniversary of the closing of the transaction pursuant to a promissory note issued to the Company. In fiscal 2009, the Company established a reserve for the remaining $1.2 million of this receivable as a result of the financial difficulties Overland
had reported. In fiscal 2010, the Company amended the promissory note agreement with Overland, which allowed Overland to pay the Company the remaining $1.2 million receivable plus accrued interest by March 31, 2010; however, the Company
received the final payment of $0.1 million from Overland in June 2010. Due to the Companys continued concern regarding Overlands ability to pay the Company, the Company released the reserve on the receivable as cash was collected. Under
the terms of the agreement, Overland granted the Company a nonexclusive license to certain intellectual property and the Company provided Overland limited support services to help ensure a smooth transition. Expenses incurred in the transaction

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Note 3. Discontinued Operations (Continued)



Accounts receivable and accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at
June 27, 2008, related to the Snap Server NAS business, were not included in discontinued operations as the Company retained these assets and liabilities; however, since Overland assumed service and support liabilities for deferred revenue,
deferred margin and warranty, the Company was relieved of these liabilities as well as certain sales returns and allowances contained in accounts receivable.

Note 4. Marketable Securities

The Companys investment policy
focuses on three objectives: to preserve capital, to meet liquidity requirements and to maximize total return. The Companys investment policy establishes minimum ratings for each classification of investments when purchased and
investment concentration is limited to minimize risk. The policy also limits the final maturity on any investment and the overall duration of the portfolio. Given the overall market conditions, the Company regularly reviews its investment
portfolio to ensure adherence to its investment policy and to monitor individual investments for risk analysis and proper valuation.

The Companys portfolio of marketable securities at December 31, 2010 was as follows:

The Companys investment portfolio consists of both corporate and government securities that generally
mature within three years. The longer the duration of these securities, the more susceptible they are to changes in market interest rates and bond yields. As yields increase, those securities purchased with a lower yield-at-cost show a
mark-to-market unrealized loss. All unrealized losses are due to liquidity challenges and changes in interest rates and bond yields. The Company has considered all available evidence and determined that the marketable securities in which unrealized
losses were recorded in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2010 were not deemed to be other-than-temporary. The Company holds its marketable securities as available-for-sale and marks them to market. The Company expects to realize the
full value of all its marketable securities upon maturity or sale, as the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities until the full value is realized. However, the Company cannot provide any assurance that its invested cash, cash
equivalents and marketable securities will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets, which may require the Company to record an impairment charge that could adversely impact its financial results.

The maturities of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities were estimated primarily based upon assumed
prepayment forecasts utilizing interest rate scenarios and mortgage loan characteristics.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the
principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The accounting standard surrounding fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy,
consisting of three levels, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company
utilized levels 1 and 2 to value its financial assets on a recurring basis. Level 1 instruments use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which include the Companys cash accounts, short-term deposits and money
market funds as these specific assets are liquid. Level 1 instruments also include United States government securities, government agencies, state and municipalities, and substantially all mortgage-backed securities as these securities are backed by
the federal or state governments and traded in active markets frequently with sufficient volume. Level 2 instruments are valued using the market approach which uses quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or
can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities and include corporate obligations and asset-backed securities as similar or identical instruments can be found in active markets. At both
December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, there were no significant transfers that occurred between levels 1 and 2 of its financial assets. In addition, at both December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any
financial assets utilizing level 3 to value its financial assets on a recurring basis. Level 3 is supported by little or no market activity and requires a high level of judgment to determine fair value.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company utilized level 3 to value its non-financial assets on a non-recurring basis. These non-financial assets were adjusted to its implied fair value as indicators were present that the carrying
value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Level 3 instruments, which are categorized as significant unobservable inputs, included the Companys long-lived assets classified as held for sale and non-controlling interest in certain
non-public companies through two venture capital funds, Pacven Walden Ventures V Funds and APV Technology Partners II, L.P. Although the Company used the market approach for the fair value of its long-lived assets classified as held for sale based
on similar assets either sold, pending sale or available for sale, the terms of these similar assets are highly subjective, resulting in the classification as level 3. In addition, Pacven Walden Ventures V Funds invests in technology companies
worldwide, primarily in the communications, electronics, information technology services, internet, software, life sciences and semiconductor industries. APV Technology Partners II, L.P. invests in technology companies that are privately-held, which
are organized in the United States. The

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)



Company regularly monitors these investments by recording these investments within Other long-term assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets based on quarterly statements the Company
receives from each of the funds. The statements are generally received one quarter in arrears, as more timely valuations are not practical. The statements reflect the net asset value, which the Company uses to determine the fair value for these
investments, which (a) do not have a readily determinable fair value and (b) either have the attributes of an investment company or prepare their financial statements consistent with the measurement principles of an investment company. The
assumptions used by the Company, due to lack of observable inputs, may impact the fair value of these equity investments in future periods. In the event that the carrying value of its equity investments exceeds their fair value, or the decline in
value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the carrying value is reduced to its current fair value, which is recorded in Interest and other income, net, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. At both December 31, 2010
and March 31, 2010, there were no transfers in or out of level 3 related to the Companys long-lived assets classified as held for sale and the Companys two venture capital funds.

Financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at December 31, 2010 were as follows:

Note 7. Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets

Goodwill

In September 2008, goodwill was increased by $16.9 million due to
the acquisition of Aristos (Note 2). Goodwill was not allocated but managed at the Company level, as the Company contains only one reporting unit. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company experienced a significant and continued decline
in the market value of its common stock, which resulted in the Companys market capitalization falling below its net book value. In addition, the Company performed its annual review of goodwill in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. As a result
of the assessment, the Company determined that its net book value exceeded the implied fair value; therefore, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $16.9 million in fiscal 2009 to write off the entire goodwill balance. This impairment charge
was recorded within Goodwill impairment in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

At December 31, 2010, the
intangible assets, net, included intangible assets purchased as part of the Aristos acquisition in September 2008 (Note 2) and a software license agreement the Company entered into with Synopsys, Inc. (Synopsys) in July 2009. The
decrease of the gross carrying amount and the associated accumulated amortization for certain related intangible assets from March 31, 2010 to December 31, 2010 was a result of PMC-Sierra acquiring the DPS Business.

The software license agreement with Synopsys was for $1.8 million, of which $0.7 million was paid in fiscal 2010 and $1.0 million was paid
in the transition period for fiscal 2010. The amortization of the software license agreement was recorded in Research and development over an original estimated useful life of three years, and was subsequently changed to two months
during the transition period for fiscal 2010, reflecting the pattern in which economic benefits of the assets are realized.

In
the transition period for fiscal 2010, the Company changed the amount to be amortized prospectively related to net book value of its remaining intangible assets of $16.0 million at March 31, 2010 based upon the pattern in which economic
benefits of the assets were expected to be realized. The remaining useful life of its intangible assets related to patents, core and existing technologies, and customer relationships changed from

Note 7. Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets (Continued)



40 months and 16 months, respectively, to approximately 5.25 months for each intangible asset, resulting in an increase in the total quarterly amortization by $7.3 million beginning in the
three-month period ended July 2, 2010. This was based on the Companys evaluation of whether to pursue the sale or to wind down its Aristos Business, in either case by the end of September 2010, after entering into a Purchase Agreement
with PMC-Sierra. The amortization of the patents, core and existing technologies, and customer relationships was recorded in Cost of revenues and Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, respectively, in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations. The remaining useful life of the Companys intangible assets related to a software license agreement with Synopsys changed from 15.5 months to two months reflecting a change in the quarterly amortization
of $1.2 million beginning in the three-month period ended July 2, 2010, as the Company ceased using the license in May 2010 in connection with actions taken under its fiscal 2011 restructuring plan. The amortization of the software license
agreement was recorded in Research and development in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amortization of intangible assets, net was $9.9 million, $5.5 million and $3.3 million in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal
years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Impairment Review

In December 2009, the Company announced that it initiated a process to pursue the potential sale or disposition of certain of its assets
or business operations. As a result of this announcement, the Company evaluated its long-lived assets to determine whether the carrying value would be recoverable in the third quarter of fiscal 2010. As the Company continued through this sale
process on certain of its assets or business operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company reevaluated the recoverability of its long-lived assets carrying value at March 31, 2010. Based on the Companys analysis, its
long-lived assets were not considered impaired in either the third or fourth quarters of fiscal 2010 as the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying value of its long-lived assets of $27.4 million at March 31,
2010. The sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows was weighted to take into consideration the possible outcomes of whether the long-lived assets, which were considered as one asset group based on the lowest level of independent cash flows
generated, would be retained and utilized as opposed to sold or disposed.

In June 2010, the Company made a decision to wind
down its Aristos Business and notified its customers that final shipments would occur by the end of September 2010. The Company also anticipated putting its building up for sale towards the end of the transition period for fiscal 2010. As a result
of these additional actions, the Company evaluated the carrying value of its long-lived assets at July 2, 2010 and determined that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company then measured the impairment loss and
recognized the amount in which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value by recording an impairment charge of $10.2 million in the transition period for fiscal 2010, of which $5.4 million and $4.8 million were reflected in Cost of
revenues and Impairment of long-lived assets, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Of the $10.2 million impairment charge of its long-lived assets recorded in the transition period for fiscal 2010, $6.1
million related to the write off of intangible assets and the remaining $4.1 million related to the reduction of the carrying value of its property and equipment, net, to its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value was based on the market
approach and considered the perspective of market participants using or exchanging the Companys long-lived assets. The estimation of the impairment involved assumptions that require judgment by the Company.

Assets Held For Sale

By the end of September 2010, the Company ceased to have an operational business to support and put its headquarters up for sale. The building was classified as Assets held for sale in the
Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010 at its estimated fair value, less cost to sell, of $6.0 million. The estimated fair value

Note 7. Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets (Continued)



approximated its carrying value, which was determined using the market approach and considered the perspective of market participants. The Company has entered into an exclusive sales listing
agreement with a broker to sell its headquarters and expects to sell its facilities by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. While classified as held for sale, the Company may need to reassess the fair value of the building at each of its
reporting periods and determine whether the carrying value is recoverable. If the carrying value is not deemed to be recoverable based on current market conditions, the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges for its
long-lived assets in the future.

Note 8. 3/4% Notes

In December 2003, the Company issued $225.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3/4% Notes. The issuance costs associated with the 3/4% Notes totaled $6.8 million, which was amortized
to interest expense over five years, and the net proceeds to the Company from the offering of the 3/4% Notes were $218.2 million. The Company pays cash interest at an annual rate of 3/4% of the principal amount at issuance, payable
semi-annually on June 22 and December 22 of each year. The 3/4% Notes are subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Company did not apply the accounting standard issued in May 2008 by the FASB with
regards to applying a nonconvertible debt borrowing rate on its 3/4% Notes in fiscal 2010, as its 3/4% Notes may not be settled in cash or other assets upon conversion. As a result, this accounting standard, which was effective for the Company
beginning with its fiscal 2010, had no impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The 3/4% Notes are convertible at the
option of the holders into shares of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share, only under the following circumstances: (1) prior to December 22, 2021, on any date during a fiscal quarter if the closing sale price of the
Companys common stock was more than 120% of the then current conversion price of the 3/4% Notes for at least 20 trading days in the period of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the previous fiscal quarter,
(2) on or after December 22, 2021, if the closing sale price of the Companys common stock was more than 120% of the then current conversion price of the 3/4% Notes, (3) if the Company elects to redeem the 3/4% Notes,
(4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions or significant distributions to holders of the Companys common stock occur or (5) subject to certain exceptions, for the five consecutive business day period following any
five consecutive trading day period in which the average trading price of the 3/4% Notes was less than 98% of the average of the sale price of the Companys common stock during such five-day trading period multiplied by the 3/4% Notes then
current conversion rate. Subject to the above conditions, each $1,000 principal amount of 3/4% Notes is convertible into approximately 85.4409 shares of the Companys common stock (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately
$11.704 per share of common stock).

In fiscal 2009, the Company repurchased a total of $191.0 million in principal amount of
its 3/4% Notes on the open market for an aggregate price of $188.9 million, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million (net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.4 million), which was recorded within Interest and other
income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition, the majority of the remaining holders of the 3/4% Notes exercised their put option in December 2008 and January 2009, which required the Company to purchase its 3/4% Notes
at a price equal to 100.25% of the principal of the 3/4% Notes, resulting in the redemption of the 3/4% Notes for an aggregate cost of $34.0 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In fiscal 2010, the Company repurchased a total of $0.1 million
at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3/4% Notes. At December 31, 2010, the Company had a remaining liability of $0.3 million of aggregate principal amount related to its 3/4% Notes. Each remaining holder of the 3/4%
Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of its 3/4% Notes on December 22, 2013, on December 22, 2018 or upon the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the indenture governing the 3/4% Notes) at a price equal
to the principal

amount of 3/4% Notes being purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest and the Company may redeem some or all of the 3/4% Notes for cash at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Company may seek to make open market repurchases of the remaining balance of its 3/4% Notes within the next twelve months.

Convertible Bond Hedge and Warrant

Concurrent with the issuance of the 3/4% Notes, the Company entered into a convertible bond hedge transaction with an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers of the 3/4% Notes. Under the convertible
bond hedge arrangement, the counterparty agreed to sell to the Company up to 19.2 million shares of the Companys common stock at a price of $11.704 per share. The convertible bond hedge transaction cost of $64.1 million was accounted
for as an equity transaction. The Company did not receive net shares or cash from the convertible bond hedge as this instrument had no value and expired in December 2008.

In fiscal 2004, in conjunction with the issuance of the 3/4% Notes, the Company received $30.4 million from the issuance to an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers of the 3/4% Notes of a
warrant to purchase up to 19.2 million shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $18.56 per share. The warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes valuation model using a volatility rate of 42%, risk-free interest rate of
3.6% and an expected life of five years. The value of the warrant of $30.4 million was classified as equity. The warrant expired unexercised in December 2008.

Note 9. Employee Stock and Other Benefit Plans

Stock Benefit Plans

The Company grants stock options and other stock-based awards to employees, directors and consultants under two equity incentive plans,
the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2006 Director Plan. In addition, the Company has outstanding options issued under equity incentive plans that have terminated and minimal outstanding options under an equity plan that it assumed in connection
with its previous acquisition. These plans are described in further detail below.

Equity Incentive Plans, including the
2004 Equity Incentive Plan, the 2000 Non-statutory Stock Option Plan, 1999 Stock Plan and 1990 Stock Plan:    In August 2004, the Companys Board of Directors and its stockholders approved the Companys 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan and reserved for issuance thereunder 10,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock plus shares reserved but not issued under the Companys 2000 Non-statutory Stock Option Plan, 1999 Stock Plan and 1990 Stock Plan. The 2004
Equity Incentive Plan provides for the granting of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, stock awards, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to employees, employee directors and consultants. Stock
options are subject to terms and conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors. For new hires, 25% of the shares subject to stock options generally vest and become exercisable one year from the date
of grant and the balance of the shares then vest quarterly thereafter for the next three years. Stock options expire seven years from the date of grant. The Companys stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of its 2004 Equity
Incentive Plan at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Amendments to the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan included, but were not limited to, (1) reducing the number of shares available for grant to 14,500,000; (2) removing the 5,000,000
share limitation with respect to stock-based awards granted at less than fair market value; (3) revising the categories of performance-related goals that may be applicable to stock-based awards granted under the plan; (4) removing the
single trigger acceleration of vesting upon a change in control; and (5) modifying the definition of incumbent directors with respect to the definition of a change of control. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had an
aggregate of 17.8 million

shares of its common stock reserved for issuance under its 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, of which 0.4 million shares were subject to outstanding options and other stock awards, and
17.4 million shares were available for future grants of options and other stock awards.

Director Stock Option Plans,
including the 2006 Director Stock Option Plan, 2000 Director Stock Option Plan and 1990 Directors Stock Option Plan:    In September 2006, the Companys Board of Directors and its stockholders approved the
Companys 2006 Director Plan and reserved for issuance thereunder 1,200,000 shares of the Companys common stock plus shares reserved but not issued under the Companys 2000 Director Stock Option Plan and the 1990 Directors
Stock Option Plan. The 2006 Director Plan provides for the granting of non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to non-employee directors. Although grants made
under the 2006 Director Plan are discretionary, the Companys compensation program practice was as follows for the transition period for fiscal 2010: (1) each new non-employee director received an option to purchase 32,500 shares of the
Companys common stock, in which one-third of the shares subject to such options will vest and become exercisable one year from the date of grant and the balance of the shares will vest quarterly thereafter over two years (2) each new
non-employee directors received 16,250 shares of restricted stock awards or restricted stock units, in which one-third of the shares will vest one year from the date of grant and the balance of the shares will vest quarterly thereafter over two
years (3) each existing non-employee director received an option to purchase 12,500 shares of the Companys common stock each year, with such option vesting quarterly over one year and, (4) each existing non-employee directors
received 12,500 shares of restricted stock each year, which will fully vest one year after the date of grant. However, both the option to purchase 12,500 shares of the Companys common stock and 12,500 shares of restricted stock awards or
restricted stock units will vest immediately if the relationship between the Company and the existing non-employee director ceases for any reason. In fiscal 2010, the Companys Board of Directors modified the vesting terms for all grants made
prior to fiscal 2010 such that the options to purchase the Companys stock and shares of restricted stock awards or restricted stock units will vest immediately if the relationship between the Company and the non-employee director ceases for
any reason. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had an aggregate of 0.9 million shares of its common stock reserved for issuance under its 2006 Director Plan, of which 0.5 million shares were subject to outstanding options and other
stock awards, and 0.4 million shares were available for future grants.

Assumed Stock Option
Plans:    The Company assumed the stock option plan and the outstanding stock options of an acquired company, Snap Appliance, Inc. in fiscal 2005. No further options may be granted under this assumed plan. However, options
that were outstanding under this plan will continue to be governed by their existing terms and may be exercised for shares of the Companys common stock at any time prior to the expiration of the option term. As of December 31, 2010, the
Company had minimal shares of common stock reserved that are subject to outstanding options under this assumed plan.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Note 9. Employee Stock and Other Benefit Plans (Continued)



The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the price of the
Companys common stock on the Pink Sheets Electronic Quotation Service (the Pink Sheets) and the exercise price of the underlying awards for the 0.3 million shares subject to options that were in-the-money at December 31,
2010. During the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised under the Companys equity incentive plans was minimal, $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively,
determined as of the date of option exercise. The following table summarizes information about the Companys options outstanding and exercisable equity incentive plans as of December 31, 2010:

As of December 31, 2010, the total unamortized stock-based compensation expense related to
non-vested stock options, net of estimated forfeitures, was approximately $38,000 and this expense is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.79 years.

Restricted Stock:Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units (collectively, restricted
stock) were granted under the Companys 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and 2006 Director Plan. The Companys right to repurchase shares of restricted stock awards lapses upon vesting, at which time the shares of restricted stock awards
are released to the employees or directors. Restricted stock units are converted into common stock upon vesting and are subsequently released to the employees or directors. Upon the vesting of restricted stock, the Company primarily used the net
share settlement approach, which withheld a portion of the shares to cover the applicable taxes. As of December 31, 2010, there were 21,667 shares of service-based restricted stock awards and 62,500 shares of restricted stock units outstanding.

Under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, restrictions generally lapsed in one of the following ways: (1) 50% one year from
the date of grant and the remainder on the second anniversary of the grant date; (2) 100% one year from the date of grant; (3) 331/3% one year from the date of grant and the remainder on the second anniversary of the grant date;
(4) 662/3% one year from the date of grant and the remainder on the second anniversary of the grant date or (5) upon meeting certain performance criteria after being evaluated over a specified period, which generally ranged from 18
months to 36 months, from the date of grant. Under the 2006 Director Plan, restrictions generally lapse (1) one year from the date of grant for one-third of the shares and quarterly thereafter for the next two years for the remaining balance
for new non-employee directors and (2) one year from the date of grant for non-employee directors; however, restricted stock will vest immediately if the relationship between the Company and the non-employee director ceases for any reason.

The cost of restricted stock, determined to be the fair market value of the shares at
the date of grant, is expensed ratably over the period the restrictions lapse; except for those restricted stock units which vested over a specified period based upon meeting certain performance criteria from the date of grant, which would then be
evaluated on a quarterly basis. The Company assessed the probability of achieving the performance criteria for certain restricted stock units at March 31, 2010 and 2009 and determined its probability was remote. Therefore, the Company did not
record any stock-based compensation expense associated with these restricted stock units with performance-based vesting in fiscal years 2010 and 2009. During the transition period for fiscal 2010, the restricted stock units with performance-based
vesting were modified as further discussed in Stock-Based Compensation below.

stock as of December 31, 2010, March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 and changes during the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

All restricted stock was awarded at the par value of $0.001 per share. As of December 31,
2010, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock that is expected to vest, net of estimated forfeitures, was approximately $44,000, and this expense is expected to be recognized over a remaining
weighted-average period of 2.79 years.

Stock-Based Compensation

In May 2010, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors modified all employees unvested stock-based awards, including
stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, including those with performance-based vesting (none of which affect the Companys Interim President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO)). The modification of the
unvested stock-based awards was effective the earlier of (1) June 8, 2010, the date the Company consummated the Purchase Agreement with PMC-Sierra for the sale of the DPS Business and PMC-Sierra assumed certain liabilities related to the
DPS Business or (2) the date in which an employee was involuntarily terminated (other than for cause) as part of the actions the Company took related to its sale of the DPS Business. The modifications included the acceleration of unvested
stock-based awards and a

settlement of unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment, resulting in total stock-based compensation expense of $0.2 million and cash compensation expense of $1.2 million,
respectively, for the transition period for fiscal 2010.

Stock-based compensation expense included in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

|(1) | The total stock-based compensation, net of taxes, recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the transition
period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 differs from the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders Equity as the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders Equity includes both continuing and discontinued operations.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(2) | The stock-based compensation expense recorded in the transition period for fiscal 2010 in the above table excluded the cash compensation expense of $1.2 million paid to
employees related to the settlement of unvested stock-based awards in the form of a fixed cash payment.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(3) | In fiscal 2010, the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations included additional compensation expense related to the accelerated vesting of certain options
and shares of restricted stock or extending the period to exercise stock options after termination. Additional compensation expense recorded in fiscal 2010 included $0.9 million related to the modification of stock-based awards in connection with
the Separation Agreement of Subramanian Sundaresh, the Companys former Chief Executive Officer.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stock-based compensation expense in the above table does not reflect any significant income taxes, which is consistent with the
Companys treatment of income or loss from its United States operations. For the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, there was no income tax benefits realized for the tax deductions from option exercises of the
stock-based payment arrangements. In addition, there was no stock-based compensation costs capitalized as part of an asset in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 as the amounts were not material.

Valuation Assumptions

The Company used
the Black-Scholes option pricing model for determining the estimated fair value for stock-based awards. The use of the Black-Scholes model requires the use of extensive actual exercise behavior data and the use of a number of complex assumptions
including expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term, and expected dividends.

Note 9. Employee Stock and Other Benefit Plans (Continued)



The Companys policy is to estimate the volatility of its stock using historical
volatility, as well as the implied volatility in market-traded options on its common stock. Given the lack of market data since April 1, 2006 relating to traded options in the Companys common stock, only historical volatility has been
used in the Companys stock-based fair value calculations. The Company will continue to monitor these and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future option grants.

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates using the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury
zero-coupon issues that is appropriate for the term of the Companys stock options.

The dividend yield assumption is
based on the Companys history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends as it is the Companys current policy to reinvest earnings for its
business.

The expected term of stock options represents the weighted-average period that the stock options are expected to
remain outstanding. The Company derived the expected term assumption based on its historical settlement experience, while giving consideration to options that have life cycles less than the contractual terms and vesting.

The fair value of the Companys outstanding stock options and other stock-based awards granted in the transition period for fiscal
2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

|(1) | The stock option granted in fiscal 2010 were made primarily during the first half of fiscal 2010, which was prior to the Companys announcement that it would
pursue a potential sale or disposition of certain of its assets or business operations. As a result, the expected term reflects the weighted-average period that the stock options were expected to remain outstanding, which was determined at the time
of grant.

There are significant variations among allowable valuation models, and there is a possibility that the
Company may adopt a different valuation model or refine the inputs and assumptions under its current valuation model in the future resulting in a lack of consistency in future periods. The Companys current or future valuation model and the
inputs and assumptions it makes may also lack comparability to other companies that use different models, inputs, or assumptions, and the resulting differences in comparability could be material.

Other Benefit Plans

The
Company had a defined contribution retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (401(k)) for eligible U.S. employees. The 401(k) allowed participants to defer between 3% and 25% of their annual compensation for
fiscal 2009 on a pre-tax basis and defer between 3% and 75% of their annual compensation for fiscal 2010 and the transition period for fiscal 2010 on a pre-tax basis, which were all subject to

the statutory limits prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company terminated its 401(k) plan on September 30, 2010. The Company matched at a 50% rate for each dollar contributed by
each eligible employee on their first $6,000 contributed during the calendar year. The matching contributions made by the Company were immediately vested. During the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, the
Companys contributions to the 401(k) plan were $0.1 million, $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The Company also maintained other benefit plans for its non-U.S. employees in which, the Company contributed $0.2 million, $0.2 million
and $0.3 million in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Common Stock Repurchase Program

In July 2008, the Companys Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to purchase up to $40 million of
the Companys common stock. The Company announced the adoption of this program on July 31, 2008. During the transition period for fiscal 2010, the Company repurchased approximately 11.7 million shares of its common stock at an average
price of $2.93 for an aggregate repurchase price of $34.3 million, excluding brokerage commissions. During fiscal 2010, the Company repurchased approximately 0.7 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $2.46 for an aggregate
repurchase price of $1.7 million, excluding brokerage commissions. During fiscal 2009, the Company repurchased approximately 1.0 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $2.29 for an aggregate repurchase price of $2.4 million,
excluding brokerage commissions. The Company has accounted for these treasury shares, which have not been retired or reissued, under the treasury method. All purchases made under the program were made in the open market. In December 2010, the
Company terminated the stock repurchase program. Under the authorized stock repurchase program, the Company has cumulatively repurchased approximately 13.5 million shares of the Companys common stock for an aggregate repurchase price of
$38.4 million, excluding brokerage commissions, through December 31, 2010.

Net rent expense was minimal in the transition period for fiscal 2010. Net rent expense
was approximately $1.0 million and $1.5 million during fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Purchase Obligations

Purchase obligations relate to the Companys contractual commitments primarily for services. At December 31, 2010, the
Companys purchase obligations were minimal, which was based on the Companys current needs and the Companys expectations that its vendors will fulfill services in fiscal 2011.

Legal Proceedings

The
Company is a party to litigation matters and claims, including those related to intellectual property and businesses that the Company wound down or sold, which are normal in the course of its operations, and while the results of such litigation
matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, because of the nature
and inherent uncertainties of litigation, should the outcome of these actions be unfavorable, the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected.

In connection with the Companys acquisitions of Aristos and Eurologic Systems Group Limited (Eurologic), a portion of
the respective purchase prices and other future payments totaling $4.3 million and $3.8 million, respectively, were held back (the Holdbacks) to secure potential indemnification obligations of Aristos and Eurologic stockholders for
unknown liabilities that may have existed as of each acquisition date. The Aristos Holdback of $4.3 million was paid in full in fiscal 2010. In fiscal 2009, the Company resolved the remaining disputed outstanding claims against the Eurologic
Holdback by entering into a deed of indemnity and a written settlement agreement with the representative of the Eurologic stockholders, which resulted in an additional payment of $1.3 million. The Companys initial payment of $2.3 million to
the Eurologic stockholders was recorded in fiscal 2005. The remaining Eurologic Holdback balance of $0.2 million was retained by the Company and was recognized as a gain in fiscal 2009 in Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes
in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 11. Restructuring Charges

The Company implemented several restructuring plans during the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 and
recorded restructuring charges of $3.9 million, $1.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The goal of these plans was to bring its operational expenses to appropriate levels relative to its net revenues, while simultaneously implementing
extensive company-wide expense-control programs.

The restructuring charges of $3.9 million recorded in the transition period
for fiscal 2010 primarily related to the restructuring plan implemented during the transition period for fiscal 2010 with minimal adjustments related to prior fiscal years restructuring plans. The restructuring charges of $1.1 million recorded
in fiscal 2010 primarily related to the restructuring plan implemented during that fiscal year with minimal adjustments related to prior fiscal years restructuring plans. Of the $3.5 million recorded in fiscal 2009, $3.3 million related to
restructuring charges for plans implemented in fiscal 2009 and $0.2 million related to adjustments made for prior fiscal years restructuring plans due to additional lease costs for facilities previously consolidated. All expenses, including
adjustments, associated with the Companys restructuring plans are included in Restructuring charges and Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The
restructuring plans are discussed in detail below.

Transition Period for Fiscal 2010 Restructuring Plan

In June 2010, the Company completed its actions and notified affected employees of the termination of their employment, primarily in
engineering and general administrative functions, in connection with a restructuring plan adopted on May 6, 2010, with expected restructuring charges of $3.9 million. The execution of this restructuring plan was substantially contingent upon
the sale of the Companys DPS Business to PMC-Sierra, which transaction was consummated on June 8, 2010, and was intended to allow the Company to reduce its operating expenses following such sale. Certain of the employees notified
continued to provide services through December 2010 in connection with the transition services the Company provided to PMC-Sierra, and to a lesser extent, to assist in corporate matters, including the completion of the wind down of the Aristos
Business by the end of September 2010. The Company expects to incur severance and related benefits charges of $3.7 million associated with this restructuring plan, of which $3.7 million was recorded in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and
minimal charges are expected to be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company also consolidated its facilities and incurred a termination fee of $0.2 million in the transition period for fiscal 2010 upon vacating a facility in
California.

Fiscal 2009
Restructuring Plans

In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company approved and initiated a restructuring plan to
(1) reduce its operating expenses due to a declining revenue base, (2) streamline its operations and (3) better align its resources with its strategic business objectives, resulting in a restructuring charge of $1.9 million in fiscal
2009. This restructuring plan included workforce reductions in all functions of the organization worldwide and consolidation of its facilities, which resulted in restructuring charges of $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Of the $1.9
million recorded in fiscal 2009 related to this restructuring plan, $0.3 million was recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, related to accrual adjustments for the additional estimated loss on the Companys facilities and disposing of
duplicative assets.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company initiated additional actions to reduce expenses as its
business began to be impacted by the deterioration of macroeconomic conditions, resulting in a restructuring charge of $1.4 million in fiscal 2009 related to severance and benefits for employee reductions primarily in sales, marketing and
administrative functions.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company utilized all of these charges and the plans are now
complete.

Previous Acquisition-Related Restructuring

In fiscal 2006, in
connection with one of its previous acquisitions, the Company finalized its plan to integrate the acquired companys operations to eliminate certain duplicative resources, including severance and related benefits in connection with the
involuntary termination of employees, exiting duplicative facilities and disposing of duplicative assets. This plan was initially included in the purchase price allocation of the acquired company. The severance and related benefits was paid by
fiscal 2007. The remaining liability related to long-term lease obligations, in which the lease term ends in October 2011. Any further changes to the Companys finalized plan will be recorded in Restructuring charges in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations. In the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, the Company recorded adjustments of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, due to additional lease costs related to the estimated loss on the
facility that the Company subleased.

In the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009, the Companys tax benefit
(provision) was associated with losses incurred from continuing operations that were offset against income and taxes recorded in discontinued operations. This was partially offset by state minimum taxes and foreign taxes related to its foreign
subsidiaries.

In the transition period for fiscal 2010, the Companys tax provision included discrete tax expenses of
$7.9 million primarily due to changes in judgment related to the on-going audits in its foreign jurisdictions.

In fiscal
2010, the Companys tax benefit included discrete tax benefits of $1.3 million related to additional tax refunds that became available to the Company during fiscal 2010 due to the enactment of the Worker, Homeownership and Business Act of 2009,
which allowed for an extension of the NOL carryback period from two to five years for United States federal tax purposes. The Company also recorded discrete tax benefits of $4.4 million in fiscal 2010 primarily due to reaching final settlement
with the German tax authorities for fiscal years 2001 through 2004 and the Singapore tax authorities for fiscal year 2001, reflecting the reversal of previously accrued liabilities and refunded tax amounts. This was partially offset by discrete tax
expense of $3.6 million in fiscal 2010 primarily due to changes in judgment related to the on-going audits in its foreign jurisdictions.

In fiscal 2009, the Companys tax benefit included discrete tax benefits of $1.4 million, which included the reversal of previously accrued liabilities related to reaching final settlement with the
Singapore tax authorities for fiscal years 1998 through 2000 and the lapsing of the statute of limitations on a pre-acquisition tax issue related to Eurologic. This was offset by changes in judgment related to on-going audits in its foreign
jurisdictions and new foreign tax issues that were identified, which included its tax exposures that pre-date its acquisition of ICP vortex Computersysteme GmbH (ICP vortex), resulting in increases in the Companys liabilities for
uncertain tax positions. Changes to the liabilities for uncertain tax benefits related to the Eurologic and ICP vortex items were recorded as part of the tax provision as opposed to adjusting amounts to purchase accounting as no goodwill or related
intangible assets existed at March 31, 2009, due to impairments or the full amortization of intangible assets in previous fiscal years. In fiscal 2009, the Company also recorded a favorable tax impact due from the state of California, including
accrued and unpaid interest, of approximately $1.6 million due to notices received from the California Franchise Tax Board in January 2009 as a result of their review of the Companys amended fiscal years 1994 through 2003 tax returns. These
notices indicated that certain adjustments were to be made in

conjunction with adjustments made on the Companys amended Federal tax returns for those fiscal years, due to reaching resolutions with the United States taxing authorities on all
outstanding audit issues, as further discussed below.

The Company has concluded its negotiations with the Internal Revenue
Service (the IRS) taxing authorities with regard to its tax disputes for the Companys fiscal years 1994 through 2006. In fiscal 2009, the IRS issued a No Change Report indicating no change to the Companys tax liability;
however, the IRS continues to have the ability to adjust tax attributes relating to these years in subsequent audits. The Company believes that it has provided sufficient tax provisions for these years and that the ultimate outcome of any future IRS
audits that include the tax attributes will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position or results of operations in future periods. The tax authorities in the foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates or formerly operated
in continue to audit its tax returns for fiscal years subsequent to 1999. The potential outcome of these audits is uncertain and could result in material tax provisions or benefits in future periods. However, the Company cannot predict with
certainty how these matters will be resolved and whether the Company will be required to make additional tax payments and believes that it has provided sufficient tax provisions for the tax exposures in such foreign jurisdictions.

The significant components of the Companys deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010
were as follows:

The significant components of the Companys deferred tax assets and liabilities at
December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 were classified on its Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:

The Company continues to provide U.S. deferred income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on its
undistributed earnings. At December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of $66.7 million, which included immaterial out-of-period adjustments that had no impact to net loss, and $59.1 million,
respectively, related to the foreign undistributed earnings, which was offset by a reduction in the Companys valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

The Company continuously monitors the circumstances impacting the expected realization of its deferred tax assets on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis. At December 31, 2010 and March 31,
2010, the Companys analysis of its deferred tax assets demonstrated that it was more likely than not that all of its net U.S. deferred tax assets will not be realized, resulting in a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $70.4
million, which included immaterial out-of-period adjustments that had no impact to net loss, and $81.2 million, respectively. This resulted in a decrease to the valuation allowance by $10.8 million during the transition period for fiscal 2010 and an
increase to the valuation allowance by $5.3 million during fiscal 2010. Factors that led to this conclusion included, but were not limited to, the Companys past operating results, cumulative tax losses in the United States and uncertain future
income on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis.

The Company continues to monitor the status of its NOLs, which may be used to
offset future taxable income. If the Company underwent an ownership change, the NOLs would be subject to an annual limit on the amount of the taxable income that may be offset by its NOLs generated prior to the ownership change and additionally, the
Company may be unable to use a significant portion of its NOLs to offset taxable income. At December 31, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $239.5 million for federal and $254.1 million for state purposes that
expire in various years beginning in 2019 for federal and 2011 for state purposes. At December 31, 2010, the Company had research and development credits of $30.3 million for federal purposes that expire in various years beginning in 2019
and credits of $17.7 million for state purposes that carry forward indefinitely until fully exhausted. At December 31, 2010, The Company had foreign tax credits of $3.4 million that expire in various years beginning in 2010. Of the federal
net operating loss carryforwards, $10.2 million were related to stock option deductions, the tax benefit of which will be credited to additional paid-in capital when realized.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The Company recognizes interest and/or
penalties related to uncertain tax positions within Benefit from (provision for) income taxes in the Companys Consolidated Statements of Operations. To the extent that

accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of the overall income tax provision in the period that such
determination is made. The amount of interest and penalties accrued during the transition period for fiscal 2010, fiscal years 2010 and 2009 was immaterial.

A reconciliation of the changes to the Companys gross unrecognized tax benefits for the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

As of December 31, 2010, the Companys total gross unrecognized tax benefits were $31.8 million, of
which $12.1 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate. There was an overall increase of $7.9 million in the Companys gross unrecognized tax benefits from fiscal 2010 to the transition period for fiscal 2010 primarily due to
tax expenses from the ongoing audits primarily in the Companys foreign jurisdictions as noted above.

The Company is
subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income taxes in many U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates or formerly operated. As of December 31, 2010, fiscal years 2004 onward remained open to examination by the
U.S. taxing authorities and fiscal years 1999 onward remained open to examination in various foreign jurisdictions. U.S. tax attributes generated in fiscal years 2004 onward also remain subject to adjustment in subsequent audits when they are
utilized.

The calculation of unrecognized tax benefits involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex
global tax regulations. Management regularly assesses the Companys tax positions in light of legislative, bilateral tax treaty, regulatory and judicial developments in the countries in which the Company conducts or formerly conducted business.
Management believes that it is not reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months; however, tax audits remain open as discussed above and the outcome of any tax audits are inherently
uncertain, which could change this judgment in any given quarter.

Note 14. Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net loss per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period, which include certain stockbased awards and warrants, calculated using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes which are
potentially dilutive at certain earnings levels, and are computed using the if-converted method.

Diluted loss per share for
the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 was based only on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each of the periods, as the inclusion of any common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive. As a
result, the same weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each of those periods was used to calculate both the basic and diluted earnings per share. The weighted-average number of common shares used to calculate the diluted
earnings per share for loss from continuing operations, net of taxes, during each of the periods was also used to compute all other reported diluted earnings per share, even though it could result in anti-dilution. The potential common shares
excluded for the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009 were as follows:

Note 15. IBM Distribution Agreement

In August 2004, the Company entered into an agreement to sell external storage products to IBM. In connection with the agreement, the
Company issued IBM a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $6.94 per share. The warrant has a term of five years from the date of issuance and was immediately exercisable; however, the warrant
expired unexercised in August 2009. The warrant was valued at $1.0 million using the Black-Scholes valuation model using a volatility rate of 62%, a risk-free interest rate of 4.0% and an estimated life of five years. The value of the
warrant was fully expensed, as the economic benefits were not considered probable, at March 31, 2005.

In connection with
the IBM internet protocol Series RAID acquisition in June 2004, the Company issued a warrant to IBM to purchase 250,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $8.13 per share. The warrant had a term of five years from
the date of issuance and was immediately exercisable; however, the warrant expired unexercised in June 2009. The warrant was valued at $1.1 million, net of registration costs, using the Black-Scholes valuation model using a volatility rate of 62%, a
risk-free interest rate of 3.9% and an estimated life of five years.

Note 16. Guarantees

Intellectual Property and Other Indemnification Obligations

The Company has entered into agreements with PMC-Sierra that include certain indemnification obligations related to the sale of the DPS Business. These indemnification obligations generally require the
Company to compensate the other party for certain damages and costs incurred as a result of third party claims. In these circumstances, payment by the Company is conditional on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in
the particular agreements, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other partys claims. Further, the Companys obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances,
the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by it under these agreements. In addition, the Company has agreements whereby it indemnifies its directors and certain of its officers for certain events or occurrences
while the officer or director is, or was, serving at the Companys request in such capacity. These indemnification agreements are not subject to a maximum loss clause; however, the Company maintains a director and officer insurance policy which
may cover all or a portion of the liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify its directors and officers. It is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements
due to the conditional nature of the Companys obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to
such agreements and no amount has been accrued in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements with respect to these indemnification guarantees.

Product Warranty

The Company provided an accrual for estimated future
warranty costs based upon the historical relationship of warranty costs to sales. The estimated future warranty obligations related to product sales were recorded in the period in which the related revenue was recognized. The estimated future
warranty obligations were affected by sales volumes, product failure rates, material usage and replacement costs incurred in correcting a product failure. If actual product failure rates, material usage or replacement costs differed from the
Companys estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty obligations would be required; however, the Company made no adjustments to pre-existing warranty accruals in the transition period for fiscal 2010 and fiscal years 2010 and 2009.
Substantially all of the Companys product warranty liability transferred to PMC-Sierra upon the sale of the DPS Business, except those amounts associated with the Companys Aristos Business. As of December 31, 2010, all product
warranties have been fulfilled.

under the rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; however, Mr. Mutch was not deemed to be an affiliate of Steel Partners at such time. Messrs. Howard, Quicke and Mutch continue to serve on the Companys Board of Directors
and Mr. Quicke currently serves as the Interim President and CEO of the Company. In October 2010, the Company appointed Mr. Lichtenstein, who is deemed to be an affiliate of Steel Partners, to serve on its Board of Directors to fill a
newly created vacancy arising as a result of the Board of Directors expansion in size. Each of the four directors, including the three directors who are deemed affiliates of Steel Partners, are compensated with equity awards or equity-based
awards in amounts that are consistent with the Companys Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy. As of December 31, 2010, Steel Partners beneficially owned approximately 33% of the Companys outstanding common stock.

In fiscal 2010, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Quicke $30,000 per month, effective, January 4, 2010, in connection with his role
as Interim President and CEO, in addition to the compensation he receives as a non-executive board member. In the transition period for fiscal 2010, the Company expensed $0.5 million related to a discretionary cash bonus the Company agreed to pay
Mr. Quicke in connection with his efforts to consummate the sale of the DPS Business to PMC-Sierra.

In addition, in
fiscal 2010, the Company reimbursed $0.7 million related to professional fees that Steel Partners II, L.P., Steel Partners Holdings L.P., Steel Partners LLC, Steel Partners II GP LLC, Warren Lichtenstein, Jack L. Howard, and John J. Quicke incurred
with respect to the consent solicitation, which was recorded within Selling, marketing and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
