Item 4.
Purpose of the Transaction
Item 4 here is hereby amended to add the following:
RIM looks forward to thoroughly reviewing the Issuer's delinquent financial reports which the Issuer has indicated will be filed by January 15, 2008. RIM believes that these filings will remove a long-standing cloud over the Issuer shares and provide management the opportunity to repurchase stock. RIM believes the Issuer is overcapitalized and, with shares trading below what RIM believes tangible book value to be, RIM implores management and the Board to implement an immediate $50 million dutch tender offer followed by an ongoing buyback to capitalize on the dislocation between current market price and what RIM believes the underlying value of the Issuer's cash, investments, technology licensing, current NOR flash business and future revenue
