Item 8.01 Other Events.

On February 18, 2010, we were notified by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency ("DARPA") that we had completed Milestone 6 under our recently-amended DARPA Phase III High Productivity Computing Systems program agreement. The milestone was for $12,500,000 and, based on our level of spending for DARPA-related work, all of the milestone amount will be credited against our research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2010 as part of this co-funding arrangement.

Additional information regarding our agreement with DARPA, as amended, can be found in our report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 16, 2010.
