On February 15, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Cypress Semiconductor Corporations (Cypress) Network Search Engine (NSE) products pursuant to an Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Assets entered into on January 25, 2006, as amended. Upon closing the transaction, we acquired assets relating to Cypress NSE business, including all intellectual property related primarily to the acquired NSE business (including all intellectual property related to the Sahasra algorithmic technology), the NSE70000 and Ayama product families and all inventory and fixed assets for those product families (the Business). We did not acquire any of Cypress TCAM1, TCAM2, TCAM2-CR, TurboCAM or Toy Cam products and inventory. To date we have paid Cypress approximately $56.2 million in shares of common stock for the acquired assets. We may be required to pay an additional $10.0 million in cash and up to approximately $10.0 million in shares of common stock if we achieve specific revenue objectives as outlined in the agreement. The Sahasra algorithmic technology complements our Layer 7 processing initiative and is a beneficial building block in driving towards low-cost Layer 7 applications acceleration and security processing solutions. In addition, the NSE70000, Ayama 10000 and Ayama 20000 expanded our product offerings in the high-volume, entry-level Layer 3 switch market. The discussions in this section of the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as the financial statements contained herein, include the effects of this acquisition from February 15, 2006, the date on which the transaction was completed. | EXCERPTS ON THIS PAGE:
