NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by the
Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company
believes the disclosures included in the unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements, when read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements of the Company as of July 1, 1994 are adequate to make
the information presented not misleading.
The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect, in the opinion
of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to summarize fairly the consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods.
The results of operations for the six months ended December 30, 1994 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
entire year ending June 30, 1995.
The Company operates and reports financial results on a fiscal year of
52 or 53 weeks ending on the Friday closest to June 30. Accordingly,
fiscal 1994 ended on July 1, 1994 and fiscal 1995 will end on June 30,
1995.
2. NET INCOME PER SHARE
Primary net income per share is based on the weighted average number of
shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the
period. Fully diluted net income per share further assumes the conversion
of the Company's 5% and 6-3/4% convertible subordinated debentures.

</TABLE>
4. INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate used to compute the income tax provision for the six
months ended December 30, 1994 and December 31, 1993 is based on the
Company's estimate of its domestic and foreign operating income for each
respective year. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December
30, 1994 was 40% compared with 30% for the comparable period last year.
The increase in the effective tax rate was due to the $43,000,000
write-off, in the quarter ended September 30, 1994, of in-process research
and development incurred in connection with the acquisition of Palindrome
Corporation that is not deductible for domestic tax purposes.
Excluding the one time write-off of in-process research and development, the
Company's overall effective tax rate was 30% for the six months ended
December 30, 1994. The overall effective rate is less than the statutory
rate because a portion of the operating income is not subject to foreign
income taxes and is considered to be permanently invested in non-U.S.
operations. Accordingly, taxes have not been provided on such income.
The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ended December 30, 1994
was 30%. The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ending March 31,
1995 may be higher than 30% due to the anticipated write-off of in-process
research and development to be incurred in connection with future
acquisitions including the acquisition of Network Computing, Inc. (see
footnote number 10, "Subsequent Event", below). The overall effective tax
rate for the year should be higher than 30% due to the higher rate in
the first quarter and the anticipated or potentially higher rates in the
third and fourth quarters.

7. CERTAIN INVESTMENTS
Effective July 2, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities". In accordance with the Statement, prior
period financial statements have not been restated to reflect the change in
accounting principle. The cumulative effect as of July 2, 1994 of the
adoption of SFAS No. 115 did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.
The Company has classified its entire investment portfolio as
available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair
value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component
of shareholders' equity. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted
for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such
amortization is included in interest income. Realized gains and losses are
included in other income (expense). The cost of securities sold is based
on the specific identification method.

8. ACQUISITIONS
In December 1994 the Company acquired Applied Magnetics Corporation's Tape
Head Subsidiary, a designer, manufacturer and marketer of magnetic recording
tape heads for the digital data storage segment of the computer industry,
for $21,500,000 in cash. Of the $21,500,000, $6,500,000 was placed in
escrow pursuant to various agreements between the Company and Applied
Magnetics Corporation (AMC). Among other things these agreements require
AMC to provide the Company with documentation and delivery of certain
manufacturing processes and technologies, and to meet various delivery and
quality milestones. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and,
accordingly, the results of operations
9
<PAGE> 10
of Tape Head Technology have been included in the consolidated
financial statements from the date of acquisition. Goodwill and other
intangibles arising from the acquisition are being amortized on a straight
line basis over periods ranging from eight months to ten years.
In August 1994 the Company acquired Palindrome Corporation, a developer of
data protection and management software for NetWare based networks and
enterprise LANs, for $69,000,000 in cash. The acquisition was accounted
for as a purchase and, accordingly, the results of operations of Palindrome
have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date
of acquisition. Goodwill and other intangibles arising from the acquisition
are being amortized on a straight-line basis over periords ranging from 3
to 7 years. As a result of the acquisition the Company incurred a one time
write-off of in-process research and development of $43,000,000.
In July 1994 the Company acquired 25% of the outstanding voting stock of
Dragon Systems, Inc., a developer of advanced speech recognition technology
and products for personal computer and workstation platforms for
$18,600,000 in cash. Goodwill arising from the purchase is being amortized
on a straight-line basis over seven years.
9. LITIGATION
See Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for a description of legal
proceedings.
10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In January 1995 the Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire
Network Computing, Inc. (NCI), a privately-held California-based developer
of network management software products for Novell NetWare networks. The
acquisition, which is subject to certain closing conditions, will be for
cash, in an amount currently estimated at $10,250,000, and will be
accounted for as a purchase. The Company anticipates that it will incur
a one-time write-off of in-process research and development of
approximately $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1995,
ending March 31, 1995.

SEAGATE TECHNOLOGY, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Net sales for the quarter ended December 30, 1994 were $1,129,563,000 as
compared with $815,890,000 reported for the comparable year-ago quarter, and
$933,146,000 reported for the immediately preceding quarter. Net sales for the
six months ended December 30, 1994 were $2,062,709,000 as compared with
$1,589,768,000 reported for the comparable period a year ago. The increase in
net sales from the comparable year-ago quarter, the immediately preceding
quarter and the comparable six month period last year was primarily due to a
higher level of unit shipments and a shift in mix to the Company's higher
priced products partially offset by a decline in the average unit sales prices
of the Company's products as a result of competitive market conditions. The
rigid disc drive industry in which the Company operates is characterized by
declining unit sales prices over the life of a product and the Company
anticipates this characteristic will continue.
Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 20.1% and 20.6% for the three and
six months ended December 30, 1994, respectively, compared with 19.0% and 18.5%
for the same periods last year and 21.2% for the immediately preceding quarter.
The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales from both comparable
year-ago periods was primarily due to a shift in mix to the Company's newer,
higher capacity disc drives, an increase in units produced resulting in lower
overhead costs per unit and a reduction in material costs partially offset by a
decline in average unit sales prices of the Company's products as a result of
competitive market conditions. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of
net sales from the immediately preceding quarter was primarily due to a decline
in average unit sales prices of the Company's products as a result of
competitive market conditions and lower yields in certain newer, higher
capacity disc drives partially offset by a shift in mix to such newer, higher
capacity disc drives, an increase in units produced resulting in lower overhead
costs per unit and a reduction in material costs.
Effective January 1, 1995, the European Union ("EU") established a new General
System of Preferences (GSP). Under this revised code certain products which
had been exempt from customs duties under the previous GSP rules, including
hard disc drives imported into the EU from Singapore, again became subject to
such duties (although at a rate lower than Most Favored Nation [MFN] duties).
In addition, in 1995 Singapore will progressively lose its status as a
beneficiary country. Thus, hard disc drives produced there and imported into
the EU will thereafter realize no reduction from full MFN duty. The imposition
of such customs duties could negatively impact revenues or increase costs and
adversely impact gross margins depending upon the extent to which such duties
are absorbed by the Company.
Product development expenses for the three and six months ended December 30,
1994 were $53,037,000 and $100,289,000 respectively, an increase of $11,182,000
and $17,463,000 respectively, when compared with the comparable periods last
year and an increase of $5,785,000 when compared with the immediately preceding
quarter ended September 30, 1994. These expenses represented 4.7% and 4.9% of
net sales for the three and six months ended December 30, 1994, respectively,
compared with 5.1% and 5.2%, respectively for the comparable year-ago periods,
and 5.1% for the immediately preceding quarter. The increase
11
<PAGE> 12
in expenses from both comparable year-ago periods was primarily due to
increases in salaries and related costs, costs incurred in connection with a
joint development agreement with Sony Corporation, Japan, and expenses of the
recently acquired software businesses, as well as an overall increase in the
Company's product development efforts. The increase in expenses from the
immediately preceding quarter was primarily due to increases in outside
services and salaries and related costs.
Marketing and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended
December 30, 1994 were $62,084,000 and $118,247,000 respectively, an increase
of $12,577,000 and $21,508,000 respectively, when compared with the comparable
periods last year and an increase of $5,921,000 when compared with the
immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 1994. These expenses
represented 5.5% and 5.7% of net sales for the three and six months ended
December 30, 1994, respectively, compared with 6.1% for both comparable
year-ago periods, and 6.0% for the immediately preceding quarter. The increase
in expenses from the comparable year-ago quarter was primarily due to expenses
of the Company's recently acquired software businesses and increases in
salaries and related costs, advertising and telephone expenses. These
increases in expenses were partially offset by decreases in travel and
entertainment and the provision for bad debts. The increase in expenses from
the comparable six month period last year was primarily due to expenses of the
Company's recently acquired software businesses and increases in salaries and
related costs, advertising, legal and telephone expenses partially offset by a
decrease in the provision for bad debts and decreased travel and entertainment
expenses. The increase in expenses from the immediately preceding quarter was
primarily due to increases in salaries and related costs, expenses of the
Company's recently acquired software businesses, advertising, travel and
entertainment and outside services, partially offset by a decrease in legal
expenses.
Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased by $1,675,000 and
$2,755,000 for the three and six months ended December 30, 1994, when compared
with the same periods last year. The increase from both comparable year-ago
periods resulted primarily from additional goodwill and other intangibles
arising from the acquisition of Palindrome Corporation and the equity
investment in Dragon Systems, Inc., both of which occurred during the quarter
ended September 30, 1994.
The $43,000,000 charge for in-process research and development in the six
months ended December 30, 1994 is a one time write-off incurred in connection
with the acquisition of Palindrome Corporation.
Net other income increased by $10,587,000 for the six months ended December 30,
1994, when compared with the same period last year. The increase in net other
income was primarily due to increased interest income as a result of higher
levels of average invested cash and higher interest rates, partially offset by
higher interest expense as a result of higher average debt outstanding.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 30, 1994 was
approximately 40% compared with 30% for the comparable period last year. The
increase in the effective tax rate was due to the $43,000,000 write-off, in the
quarter ended September 30, 1994, of in-process research and development
incurred in connection with the acquisition of Palindrome Corporation that is
not deductible for domestic tax purposes.

<PAGE> 13
Excluding the one time write-off of in-process research and development the
Company's overall effective tax rate was 30% for the six months ended December
30, 1994. The effective tax rate is less than the statutory rate because a
portion of the operating income is not subject to foreign income taxes and is
considered to be permanently invested in non-U.S. operations.
The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ended December 30, 1994 was
30%. The Company's effective tax rate for the quarter ending March 31, 1995 may
be higher than 30% due to the anticipated write-off of in-process research and
development to be incurred in connection with future acquisitions including the
acquisition of Network Computing, Inc. (see below and footnote number 10,
"Subsequent Event", to the consolidated condensed financial statements). The
overall effective tax rate for the year should be higher than 30% due to the
higher rate in the first quarter and the anticipated or potentially higher rates
in the third and fourth quarters.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
At December 30, 1994, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments totaled $1,221,464,000, a decrease of $112,078,000 from the July 1,
1994 balance. This decrease was primarily a result of the Company's additions
to property, equipment and leasehold improvements, its acquisitions of
Palindrome Corporation and Tape Head Technology, its investment in Dragon
Systems, Inc. and the repurchase by the Company of 2,987,100 shares of its
common stock, partially offset by cash provided by operating activities. The
Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are being
maintained in short-term liquid investments until required for other purposes.
As of December 30, 1994 the Company had a domestic credit facility consisting of
a $50 million line of credit. There were no borrowings under this line of
credit at December 30, 1994 although approximately $11 million had been utilized
for letters of credit. Additionally the Company had approximately $33 million
of non-domestic lines of credit which can be used for borrowings as well as
letters of credit, bankers' guarantees, and overdraft facilities. Although
there were no borrowings under these lines at December 30, 1994, approximately
$2 million had been utilized for bankers' guarantees and letters of credit. The
Company also had approximately $28 million of lines of credit worldwide which
can be used for letters of credit and bankers' guarantees, but not borrowings.
Of the $28 million, approximately $5 million had been utilized at December 30,
1994.
The Company expects investments in property and equipment in the current fiscal
year to approximate $400 million, of which approximately $137 million had been
incurred through December 30, 1994. The Company plans to finance these
investments from cash flows from operations and existing cash balances. The
$137 million comprised $59 million for manufacturing facilities and equipment
related to the Company's sub-assembly and disc drive final assembly and test
facilities in the U.S. and Far East, $49 million for manufacturing facilities
and equipment in the thin-film head operations in the U.S., Malaysia and
Northern Ireland, $17 million for expansion of the Company's thin-film media
operations in California and $12 million for other purposes.
During the six months ended December 30, 1994 the Company acquired 2,987,100
shares of its common stock for approximately $74.9 million. The repurchase of
these shares was in connection with a stock repurchase program announced in
July 1994 in which up to 7,000,000
13
<PAGE> 14
shares of the Company's common stock may be acquired in the open market.
The purpose of the stock repurchase program is to enhance shareholder value.
The repurchase program also provides shares to be issued under the Company's
employee stock plans and thereby reduces dilution from such plans.
The Company anticipates that users of computer systems will increasingly rely
upon client/server network computing environments and believes that as this
reliance increases, users will demand software that more efficiently and
securely manages data across computer networked environments. As such, the
Company is broadening its core competencies to include software products to
meet these requirements. During the quarter ended September 30, 1994 the
Company acquired Palindrome Corporation, a developer of data protection and
management software, for $69 million, and purchased 25% of the outstanding
voting stock of Dragon Systems, Inc., a developer of advanced speech
recognition technology, for $18.6 million. In addition, in January 1995 the
Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire Network Computing, Inc. (NCI),
a privately-held developer of network management software products for Novell
NetWare networks. The acquisition, which is subject to certain closing
conditions, will be for cash, in an amount currently estimated at $10,250,000
and will be accounted for as a purchase. The Company anticipates that it will
incur a one-time write-off of in-process research and development of
approximately $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1995,
ending March 31, 1995.
The Company is also pursuing a strategy to establish itself as a leading
supplier of selected magnetic recording components, including thin-film heads,
to other manufacturers. In line with this strategy, the Company, during the
quarter ended December 30, 1994, acquired Applied Magnetics Corporation's Tape
Head Subsidiary, a designer, manufacturer and marketer of magnetic recording
tape heads for the digital data storage segment of the computer industry, for
$21.5 million.
The Company intends to continue its expansion into software and other
complementary businesses and is actively pursuing discussions with companies
that fit with its strategy. The Company plans to finance these investments
primarily from cash flows from operations and existing cash balances. However,
it is also possible that the Company may utilize additional equity or debt
financing.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
SECURITIES LITIGATION
In 1988 a series of lawsuits were filed in Federal Court for the Northern
District of California against the Company, alleging violations of the federal
securities laws on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company's securities.
These lawsuits have been the subject of much pretrial proceedings, which have
had the net effect of narrowing the claims made against the Company. The trial
date is set for March 15, 1995.
In 1991 another series of lawsuits were filed in Federal Court for the Northern
District of California against the Company, alleging violations of the federal
securities laws on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company's securities.
Discovery is continuing and a trial date has been set for January 1996.
The Company believes both series of securities lawsuits are without merit and
intends to vigorously contest each lawsuit.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and/or similar state
agencies have identified the Company as a potentially responsible party with
respect to environmental conditions at several different sites to which
hazardous wastes had been shipped or from which they were released. These
sites were acquired by the Company from Control Data Corporation (CDC) in 1990.
Other parties have also been identified at certain of these sites as
potentially responsible parties. Many of these parties either have shared or
likely will share in the costs associated with the sites. Investigative and/or
remedial activities are ongoing at such sites.
The estimated cost of investigation and remediation of known contamination at
the sites to be incurred after July 1, 1994 was approximately $15,200,000. At
July 1, 1994 the Company had recovered $1,500,000 from CDC, through its
indemnification and cost sharing agreements with CDC and, in addition, expects
to recover approximately $10,400,000 over the next 30 years. After deducting
the expected recoveries from CDC, the expected aggregate undiscounted liability
was approximately $4,800,000 with expected payments of approximately $180,000
in 1998, $383,000 in 1999 and the remainder thereafter.
Approximately $14,500,000 of the $15,200,000 total estimated costs described
above is attributable to one site in Omaha, Nebraska. In 1994 the Company sold
the Omaha property; however, the Company retains responsibility for, and has
indemnified the buyer with respect to, all environmental contamination existing
on the site at the time of sale. IT Corporation, a nationally known
environmental consulting firm, has provided consulting services to CDC and the
Company for the Omaha site for several years and assisted the Company in
estimating the liability related to the cost of remediation. This liability is
based on a plan of investigation and remediation developed by IT Corporation
pursuant to
15
<PAGE> 16
a Consent Order entered into by the Company and the EPA in 1990. The extent
of contamination in the groundwater is still being investigated and
defined. According to the plan the likely technology for remediation of
groundwater at the facility will be pumping and treatment, while remediation of
soils will most likely be accomplished by soil vapor extraction, followed by
in-situ bioremediation. A substantial portion of the Omaha liability was
discounted by applying a risk free rate of 4.53% to the expected payments to be
made by the Company over the next 30 years. None of the liabilities for any of
the other sites has been discounted. The total liability for all sites
recorded by the Company after discounting was $3,000,000 at July 1, 1994.
The Company believes that the indemnification and cost sharing agreements
entered into with CDC and the reserves that the Company has established with
respect to its future environmental costs are such that, based on present
information available to it, future environmental costs related to currently
known contaminations will not have a material adverse affect on its financial
condition or results of operations.
PATENT LITIGATION
In November 1992, Rodime, PLC ("Rodime") filed a complaint in Federal Court for
the Central District of California, alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. B1
4,638,383 and various state law unfair competition claims. In February 1993,
Rodime filed an amended complaint alleging infringement of a second patent,
U.S. Patent No. 4,890,174. The Company has initiated a counter-claim against
Rodime in the same action for infringement of a Seagate patent, U.S. Patent No.
4,620,251. On June 11, 1993, the Court issued an Order in which the companies
stipulated to a dismissal with prejudice of any claims and counterclaims based
on U.S. Patent Nos. 4,890,174 and 4,620,251. The Court previously scheduled a
pre-trial conference for April 25, 1994; however, just prior to this date, the
Court notified the parties that the pre-trial conference had been taken off
calendar. No new date has been set for a pre-trial conference. Accordingly,
the parties have not been given a date for the commencement of the trial.
Seagate has filed a number of motions for summary judgment in this action, some
of which, if granted, would be completely dispositive of this action. All of
these motions are still under submission with the Court. A similar partially
dispositive motion for summary judgment was granted by the District Court of
Minnesota in the related action of Quantum Corporation v. Rodime, PLC,
resulting in a final judgment of invalidity of certain claims of Rodime's
U.S. Patent No. B1 4,638,383. Rodime appealed this adverse judgment to the
Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and the oral argument of this appeal
was heard on November 10, 1994. The Court of Appeals has yet to render a
decision on this appeal.
It is the opinion of the Company's patent counsel that the Company's products
do not infringe any valid claims of the Rodime patent in suit and thus the
Company has refused Rodime's offer of a license for its patents. However, many
other companies, such as IBM, Conner Peripherals, Hewlett-Packard and a number
of Japanese companies have been reported to have made payments to and taken
licenses from Rodime.
On October 5, 1994 a patent infringement action was filed against the Company
by an individual James M. White in the U.S. District Court for the Northern
District of California for alleged infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 4,673,996
and 4,870,519. Both patents relate to air bearing sliders.
16
<PAGE> 17
Prior to the filing of the lawsuit, the Company filed a Petition for
Reexamination of U.S. Patent No. 4,673,996 with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office ("PTO") and this Petition was granted shortly after the
lawsuit was filed. Subsequently, the Company filed a Petition for
Reexamination of U.S. Patent No. 4,870,519. The PTO has yet to rule on this
second Petition. There has been no significant action thus far in the District
Court action.
The Company and the Company's patent counsel believe that the claims of the two
White patents are invalid for the reasons set forth in the two Petitions for
Reexamination.
TAX DEFICIENCY
The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") in 1990 concluded a field audit of the
Company's income tax returns for the fiscal years 1983 through 1987 and issued
to the Company "Notices of Deficiency" (the "Notices") for the fiscal years
1981 through 1987 proposing tax deficiencies of approximately $112,280,000 plus
interest. The major proposed adjustment to income in those fiscal years
related to the allocation of income between the Company and its manufacturing
subsidiary in Singapore. On November 29, 1994 the United States Tax Court
entered a decision concerning the allocation of income between the Company and
its Singapore subsidiary for the fiscal years 1983 through 1987. A number of
other adjustments were settled by the parties prior to the issuance of the Tax
Court's decision. The consequences of the Tax Court decision and the prior
settlement are the elimination of nearly all of the tax deficiencies proposed
by the IRS in its Notices and the reduction of the Company's net operating loss
carryovers from these fiscal years to the fiscal year 1988 and subsequent
fiscal years as described below. Such decision is currently subject to appeal
by either the Company or the IRS. The Company believes that the final
adjustments resulting from this audit will not have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
The IRS in 1994 concluded a field audit of the Company's income tax returns for
the fiscal years 1988 through 1990 and issued to the Company a "Notice of
Deficiency" (the "1994 Notice") for those fiscal years. The majority of the
proposed adjustments to income in those fiscal years related to the allocation
of income between the Company and its foreign subsidiaries. The proposed
adjustments to income and tax credits in the 1994 Notice resulted in proposed
tax deficiencies of approximately $66,000,000 plus penalties and interest. The
proposed income adjustments would also eliminate tax net operating loss and tax
credit carryovers that have been used to offset taxable income and tax
liabilities in other fiscal years. The combined impact on net operating loss
and tax credit carryovers from the resolution of the audit for the fiscal years
1981 through 1987 and the adjustments proposed in the 1994 Notice would be to
eliminate tax net operating loss carryovers of approximately $81,000,000 and
tax credit carryforwards of approximately $14,000,000 which would result in
additional taxes of approximately $41,000,000 plus interest for the three years
ended July 2, 1993. The Company on June 7, 1994 filed a petition in the United
States Tax Court contesting these proposed deficiencies and related penalties.
The IRS filed its Answer on August 4, 1994. The Company believes that the
outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.

<PAGE> 18
OTHER LITIGATION
Amstrad PLC ("Amstrad") initiated a lawsuit against the Company in London,
England on December 11, 1992 concerning the Company's sale of allegedly
defective disc drives to Amstrad. The Company has replied to the allegations
made against it by Amstrad by denying all material points of Amstrad's claim
and asserting many affirmative defenses. Discovery is continuing and a trial
date has been set for April 1996 with various earlier dates for exchange of
expert and other testimony. The Company believes this lawsuit is without merit
and will continue to defend itself vigorously.
In October 1991 International Business Machines Corporation ("IBM") initiated a
lawsuit in the Federal District Court for Minnesota against the Company and one
of its employees for allegedly threatening the misappropriation of IBM trade
secrets. IBM thereafter amended its complaint adding another Company employee
as a defendant and alleging that the defendants had now misappropriated IBM
trade secrets. On November 14, 1994 the parties entered into a Settlement
Agreement mutually dismissing all claims, each against the other and entered
into a patent cross license.
The Company is involved in a number of other judicial and administrative
proceedings incidental to its business. Although occasional adverse decisions
(or settlements) may occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of
such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN THE RIGHTS OF THE COMPANY'S SECURITY HOLDERS
On November 21, 1988, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend
distribution of one Preferred Shares Purchase Right (each a "Right" and
collectively the "Rights") for each share of the Company's Common Stock
outstanding as of the close of business on December 19, 1988 and each share of
Common Stock issued thereafter (subject to certain limitations). The Preferred
Shares Rights Agreement (the "Rights Plan") dated November 22, 1988 between the
Company and Bank of America, N.T. & S.A., as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agent"),
provides, among other things, that after a "Distribution Date" as defined in
the Rights Plan, each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the
Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Company's Series A Participating
Preferred Stock, $.01 par value (the "Series A Participating Preferred"),
initially at a price of $36.00 (the "Purchase Price"). On October 27, 1994,
the Company's Board of Directors adopted resolutions directing the Company's
management to terminate the Rights Plan. On November 29, 1994, the Company and
the Rights Agent amended the Rights Plan so as to accelerate the expiration
date of the Rights Plan to December 1, 1994, thereby terminating the Rights
Plan as of such date.
