Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On January 21, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a restructuring action to reduce operating costs while retaining focus on its strategic initiatives. The Company plans to reduce the size of its workforce by approximately 20 positions. The reductions will begin in January and are expected to be complete by August 2013. In conjunction with the headcount reduction, the Company will further reduce the size of its facility presence in Santa Rosa, CA. The Company expects to incur restructuring charges in the range of $1.5 million to $1.8 million in connection with the plan. This includes $1.0 million to $1.3 million in expected charges for one-time termination benefits and $0.5 million associated with the Company’s reduction of occupied commercial space in Santa Rosa, CA. Upon completion, Symmetricom expects these restructuring actions to reduce annual costs by approximately $4.0 million.
