ITEM 1(b).        CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT

         On September 11, 1998,  Information  Storage Devices,  Inc. ("ISD") and
Winbond  Electronics  Corporation  ("WEC"),  Winbond Int'l Corporation  ("WIC"),
Oriole Holding Corporation  ("OHC") and Winbond Acquisition  Corporation ("WAC")
signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger  Agreement"),  providing for
the  acquisition  of ISD by WAC.  The  Merger  Agreement  provides  that WAC,  a
newly-formed  subsidiary of WEC, will merge with and into ISD (the "Merger") and
ISD will become an indirect  wholly owned  subsidiary of WEC. As a result of the
Merger,  each  outstanding  share of ISD Common  Stock that is not owned by WEC,
WAC, WIC, OHC or any affiliate of any of them (collectively, "Winbond"), will be
converted into the right to receive $7.50 in cash,  subject to adjustment if ISD
issues  additional  shares of its  capital  stock or options or other  rights to
acquire  shares of its capital stock in excess of certain  amounts  specified in
the Merger Agreement.  All outstanding and unexercised  options and other rights
to purchase ISD Common Stock will terminate at the effective time of the Merger.
Winbond and the  directors  and certain  executive  officers of ISD have entered
into a Voting  Agreement,  pursuant  to which  they have each  agreed to vote in
favor of the Merger subject, in the case of the directors and executive officers
of ISD,  to the  discharge  of their  fiduciary  responsibilities  as a director
and/or officer of ISD.

         Completion  of the Merger is subject to the  satisfaction  or waiver of
various  conditions,  including,  among  others (i) the  approval  of the Merger
Agreement by the ISD shareholders, (ii) expiration or termination of the waiting
period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, (iii) the
absence of any material adverse change in ISD's financial condition,  results of
operations or business from July 4, 1998 to the closing date and (iv) continuing
accuracy  of the  representations  and  warranties  of each  party in the Merger
Agreement.
