In February 2014, we submitted a binding offer to purchase Grass Valley for approximately $220 million. Grass Valley is a leading provider of innovative technologies for the broadcast industry, including production switchers, cameras, servers, and editing solutions. The binding offer is subject to consultation with Grass Valley’s foreign labor works council, after which we plan to enter into a definitive agreement. We expect to close the transaction in the first quarter of 2014, and it is subject to regulatory approvals, the completion of audited financial statements, and other customary closing conditions.
