Founded in 1995, Virage Logic Corporation (Virage Logic or the Company) provides semiconductor intellectual property (IP) and services to more than 400 semiconductor companies worldwide. Historically we were primarily engaged in the development and marketing of embedded memory IP products. After the acquisition of In-Chip Systems Inc. (In-Chip Systems or In-Chip) in May 2002, we expanded our physical IP product offering to also include standard cell logic component products. In August 2007, we acquired Ingot Systems Inc. (Ingot Systems or Ingot), a privately held provider of functional, or application specific IP (ASIP) including Double Data Rate (DDR) memory controllers, Physical Interfaces (PHYs), and Delay Locked Loops (DLLs). In June 2008, we further expanded our product portfolio when we acquired the non-volatile embedded memory (NVM) IP business of Impinj Inc. (Impinj). Impinj’s AEON® NVM products and we believe it essentially establishes Virage Logic as the multiple-time programmable NVM market leader. In 2009, we accelerated the expansion of our product line. First, in January 2009, we announced a licensing agreement with AMD that grants Virage Logic the rights to license, modify and sell standards-based advanced interface IP that AMD designed for use in its extensive graphics processor product line. This agreement enabled Virage Logic to expand its product line to include complete standards-based solutions for PCI Express (PCIe) and Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI® ) as well as a unique multi-protocol IP solution for High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), Digital Visual Interface (DVI) and DisplayPort interfaces. Second, in September 2009, we acquired publicly held ARC International plc (ARC International or ARC), a leading provider of consumer IP to OEM and semiconductor companies globally.
