Item 5 Other Events.
------ ------------
We entered into a merger agreement, dated as of August 30,
2000, with Splash Technology Holdings, Inc. ("Splash") and one of our wholly
owned subsidiaries. Splash produces software based color servers for computer
printers.
We intend to acquire Splash for a cash acquisition price of
$10 per share of Splash common stock. Assuming all of the conditions in the
merger agreement are satisfied or waived, we will pay this cash consideration to
Splash stockholders who validly tender shares in response to our tender offer
for any and all shares of Splash common stock. Assuming that at least fifty
percent of the shares of Splash common stock are purchased in our tender offer,
we will pay this same $10 price per share to any remaining Splash stockholders
in the merger of our wholly owned subsidiary into Splash. Our acquisition of
Splash is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and is intended to
be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
On August 31, 2000, we issued a press release announcing the
agreement to acquire Splash, a copy of that press release is filed as exhibit
