Lichtenstein.  Each of the foregoing is referred to as a “Reporting Person” and collectively as the “Reporting Persons.”
 
Steel Holdings is the sole limited partner of Steel Partners II.  Partners LLC is the manager of Steel Partners II and Steel Holdings and has been delegated the sole power to vote and dispose of the securities held by Steel Partners II and Steel Holdings.  Warren G. Lichtenstein is the manager of Partners LLC.  By virtue of these relationships, each of Steel Holdings, Partners LLC and Mr. Lichtenstein may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned by Steel Partners II.
 
Set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto is the name and present principal business, occupation or employment and the name, principal business and address of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is conducted of (i) Steel Partners II GP LLC (“Steel Partners GP”), the general partner of Steel Partners II, (ii) Steel Partners Holdings GP Inc. (“Steel Holdings GP”), the general partner of Steel Holdings, (iii) the executive officers of Partners LLC, (iv) the executive officers of Steel Partners GP, and (v) the executive officers and directors of Steel Holdings GP.  To the best of the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, except as otherwise set forth herein, none of the persons or entities listed on Schedule A beneficially owns any securities of the Issuer or is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding required to be disclosed herein.
 
(b)           The principal business address of each of the Reporting Persons is 590 Madison Avenue, 32nd Floor, New York, New York 10022.

(f)           Each of the individuals who are Reporting Persons or listed on Schedule A are citizens of the United States of America.  Each of the entities who are Reporting Persons or listed on Schedule A are organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.
 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
The aggregate purchase price of the 644,988 Shares owned directly by Steel Partners II is approximately $1,801,021, including brokerage commissions.  The Shares owned directly by Steel Partners II were acquired with partnership funds.
 
Steel Partners II effects purchases of securities primarily through margin accounts maintained for it with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to it as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the prime brokers’ credit policies.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.
 
The Reporting Persons originally purchased the Shares based on the Reporting Persons’ belief that the Shares, when purchased, were undervalued and represented an attractive investment opportunity.  Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, and the availability of Shares at prices that would make the purchase or sale of Shares desirable, the Reporting Persons may endeavor to increase or decrease their position in the Issuer through, among other things, the purchase or sale of Shares on the open market or in private transactions or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as the Reporting Persons may deem advisable.
 
Based upon their initial review of the proposed merger of Aerie Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GigOptix, Inc., with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), the Reporting Persons have significant and serious concerns regarding the Merger.  In particular, the Reporting Persons are concerned with the adequacy of the Merger consideration in light of the Merger’s potential to cause an annual limitation on the utilization of the Issuer’s significant net operating loss carryforward.
 
No Reporting Person has any present plan or proposal which would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed herein. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, deciding how they wish to vote on the Merger, communicating with shareholders, management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer concerning the Merger and potential alternative transactions, engaging in discussions with third parties about the Issuer and the Reporting Persons’ investment, making proposals to the Issuer concerning changes to the capitalization, ownership structure or operations of the Issuer, purchasing additional Shares, selling some or all of their Shares, engaging in short selling of or any hedging or similar transaction with respect to the Shares, or changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.

As of the close of business on March 4, 2011, Steel Partners II owned directly 644,988 Shares, constituting approximately 6.6% of the Shares outstanding.  By virtue of their relationships with Steel Partners II discussed in further detail in Item 2, each of Steel Holdings, Partners LLC and Warren G.
