Company
), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 28, 2012, by and among Teledyne, Merger Sub and the Company
(the

Item 1.02.
|

|
On August 3, 2012, in connection with the Merger, the Company repaid and terminated all commitments under the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 11, 2011, as amended, between the Company and
RBS Citizens, N.A., as lender (the Credit Agreement). In connection with such termination, the Company repaid all principal amounts, all accrued and unpaid interest, and breakage and accruing fees owing by the Company to RBS Citizens,
N.A. under the Credit Agreement through the date of termination, and all liens on assets of the Company were released and terminated.
The material terms of the Credit Facility are described in the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 under Item 1. Financial Statements, Note 12 Debt

|
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Companys common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than shares owned by Teledyne, Merger Sub, the Company or any stockholders who have properly exercised and perfected appraisal rights under Delaware law) was converted automatically into the
right to receive $14.30 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the

Company (whether vested or unvested) and stock appreciation right was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $14.30 over the exercise price of such option (or base price, in the case of stock
appreciation rights), without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
On August 3, 2012, the Company

file with the SEC a certification and notice of termination on Form 15 with respect to the Companys common stock, requesting that the Companys common stock be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act
), and that the reporting obligations of the Company with respect to the Companys common stock under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act be suspended.
Item 3.03.
|
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders
|
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Companys common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time (other than

effective time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase common stock of the Company (whether vested or unvested) and stock appreciation right was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $14.30
over the exercise price of such option (or base price, in the case of stock appreciation rights), without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
At the effective time of the Merger, holders of shares of the Companys common stock ceased to have any rights as stockholders of the Company (other than the right to receive the Merger
Consideration) and accordingly no longer have any interest in the Companys future earnings or growth. The information set forth under Item 3.01 above and Item 5.01 below is incorporated herein by reference.

receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of $14.30 over the exercise price of such option (or base price, in the case of stock appreciation rights), without interest and less any required withholding taxes.
