Section 2 — Financial Information
ITEM 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities
     On September 20, 2007, the Board of Directors of Phoenix Technologies Ltd. (the “Company”) approved a restructuring for the purpose of closing the Company’s facility in Norwood, Massachusetts, which Company management has determined is no longer economical. The Company expects to record a restructuring charge in the aggregate amount of approximately $750,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007, all of which represents cash expenditures. It is estimated that the actions under this restructuring plan will be completed within the next four weeks.
     The actions under this restructuring will involve reducing the Company’s workforce by approximately 12 employees and vacating the Norwood facility. The estimated restructuring charges will consist of approximately (i) $500,000 related to severance costs and (ii) $250,000 related to on-going lease obligations for the Norwood facility.
