¨

(b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report/portion thereof will be filed or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report/portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

As announced on January 31, 2007, the independent review of certain of the Company's past stock option grants and practices, which was conducted by a Special Committee of the Board with the assistance of outside independent legal counsel, was completed, and the Special Committee found that there were deficiencies related to the process for granting stock options to employees and directors during the period under review and, specifically, that in certain instances from the beginning of fiscal year 2000 until the end of fiscal year 2006, the recorded exercise price of certain stock option grants to employees and directors differed from the fair market value of the underlying shares on the actual measurement date. As result, on January 31, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company concluded the financial statements, and the related reports of its independent registered accountants, and all earnings press releases and similar communications issued by the Company relating to the periods beginning in fiscal year 2000 through fiscal year 2005 and the related interim periods through September 23, 2006 should no longer be relied upon. The Company intends to restate its financial statements for the fiscal years 2000 through 2005 and the related interim periods through March 25, 2006 to record additional non-cash stock-based compensation expense. In addition, fiscal years prior to 2000 may need to be restated due to possible process problems in the granting of stock options. The Company has not determined the amount of such charges, the periods to be restated, the amount to be restated in any specific period, or the resulting tax and accounting impact. As a result, the Company was unable to prepare restated financials prior to the prescribed due date for the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 29, 2007, and consequently, the Company is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 29, 2007 within the prescribed period without unreasonable effort or expense.

The Company is focused on resolving these issues as quickly as possible and plans to file its outstanding Annual Reports on Form 10-K and its outstanding Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and required restated financial statements as soon as practical.

PART IV — OTHER INFORMATION

(1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification

Mark Casper
(Name) 		408
(Area Code) 		737-7600
(Telephone Number)

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).

The Company has not filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2006.
The Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal year ended September 23, 2006.
The Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year ended December 23, 2006.
The Company has not filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal year ended March 24, 2007.
The Company has not filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007.

¨ Yes      ý No

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

ý Yes      ¨ No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Company expects to record additional stock-based compensation which will impact its financial results. The Company cannot provide a reasonable estimate of the results because it will need to restate certain historical financial statements to record additional non-cash charges for stock-based compensation relating to past stock option grants. No reasonable estimate of the impact of the charges can be determined at this time, as the Company continues work on a determination of the accounting impact of the identified matters.
