Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 21, 2015, we entered into an agreement and opened escrow for the sale of our headquarters facility located in Poway, California (the "Poway Facility") for $34.25 million. The transaction is subject to completion of buyer due diligence and customary closing conditions and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2015. However, there can be no assurance that the proposed transaction will close as scheduled, or at all. Should the transaction close, we anticipate entering into a ten-year lease with the buyer for a portion of the Poway Facility, enabling us to continue to operate at our current location. The transaction allows us to reduce the utilized space within the Poway Facility to better fit our current needs, as we transition a significant portion of our manufacturing activities to Asia.
