Item 8.01  Other Events.

As previously reported, GSI Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) is a party to a patent infringement investigation currently pending before the International Trade Commission (the “ITC”).  The ITC instituted the investigation in July 2011 in response to a complaint filed by Cypress Semiconductor Corp.

On October 25, 2012, Chief Administrative Law Judge Charles E. Bullock issued his initial determination in which he held that the importation of the Company’s static random access memory (“SRAM”) products, and products incorporating them, and the sale within the United States of such products, have not violated applicable federal law with respect to any of the four patents that Cypress had alleged were infringed.

Also on October 25, 2012, the Company issued a press release commenting on Judge Bullock’s ruling.  A copy of the press release is attached as an exhibit to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
