On January 24, 2008, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement whereby SiRF agreed to make two advances totaling $13.5 million to a potential acquisition target in connection with the Companys proposal to acquire all outstanding shares of this entity. The loan and security agreement is collateralized by a security interest in all of the target entitys current and subsequently acquired assets. The entire outstanding principal balance of the advances bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum, and is payable on July 24, 2009 or at an earlier date, pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Subsequent to executing this agreement, SiRF decided not to proceed with the pending acquisition, and as a result of changes in circumstances, the Company is currently performing a review to evaluate the recoverability of the outstanding notes receivable from the target entity. As a result of this evaluation, the Company may determine that the carrying amount of the $13.5 million notes receivable may need to be written down to its fair value which could result in adverse charges to the Companys future operating results and financial position.
In February 2008, purported class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company and certain of its officers and directors. The complaints allege that the Company and certain of its officers and directors violated the federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements and omissions relating to our business and operating results. The complaints seek, on behalf of persons who purchased our common stock during the period from October 30, 2007 to February 4, 2008, unspecified damages, interest and costs and expenses, including attorneys fees and disbursements. In addition, in February 2008, shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California County of Santa Clara against certain of our officers and directors. The complaints allege breach of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment and violations of the California Corporations Code. The complaints seek unspecified damages, disgorgement of profits, benefits and other compensation, interest and costs and expenses, including attorneys fees and disbursements. While the Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously, litigation, whether or not determined in its favor or settled, could be costly and time-consuming and could divert managements attention and resources, which could adversely affect the Companys business.
As a result of the decline in SiRFs market capitalization that occurred in February 2008, the Company is performing an analysis of potential impairment of its goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets. If this analysis indicates the carrying value of the Companys reporting unit or any of its intangible assets or long lived assets is impaired, a detrimental impact to our future results of operations and financial position would result. The Company expects this impairment analysis to be completed during the first quarter of 2008.
