In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company acquired the
principal assets of Mountain Power Inc. (“MPI”), a
privately-held development-stage company that designed and
developed a high performance, large capacity rechargeable
lithium-ion battery for use in the telecommunications, utility,
industrial, medical and military markets. The acquisition of MPI
is part of the Company’s strategy to accelerate development
of advanced battery technology including lithium-ion and related
battery management systems that can be used to serve the
Company’s existing markets as well as potential new markets.
