This Amendment No.4 amends and supplements the Transaction Statement on
Schedule 13E-3 filed on August 3, 1999, as amended, relating to the offer by
Imaging Components Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser"), to
purchase all the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share
(the "Shares") of the Company at a purchase price of $12.75 per Share, net to
the seller in cash, without interest thereon, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 3, 1999 (the "Offer
to Purchase") and the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any
supplements or amendments, collectively constitute the "Offer").
The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York Time, on Wednesday, September
8, 1999. Purchaser has purchased a total of 4,414,409 Shares which represent
approximately 84% of all Shares outstanding on September 16, 1999. The Company
will call a special meeting of stockholders to approve the Merger. At the
special meeting of stockholders, Purchaser will vote all Shares acquired by it
pursuant to the Offer in favor of the Merger, which will be sufficient to
approve the Merger under Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and the Company's Bylaws, without the vote of any
other stockholder.
In connection with the special meeting of stockholders, and as notice of
the special meeting, the Company will distribute to holders of Shares an
