Document# 27-0007UM  Issued 11/00  Rev. 1.0

Z Microsystems has achieved full Y2K Compliance.

In late 1997, the company’s senior management assigned a Y2K Project Team

that consists of a cross-functional representation from information technology,

procurement, manufacturing, test and development, finance, general affairs,

engineering, marketing and facilities organizations to address the Year 2000

issues.

The Assessment/Rectification Phase of the Year 2000 efforts and full compliance

for all mission critical internal systems were accomplished as scheduled by the

end of Q1, 1999.  Contingency development and validation of the company’s

overall Year 2000 readiness will continue through 1999.

The following strategically important categories have been assessed for Year

2000 readiness:

Suppliers and Service Providers Readiness.

All major strategic suppliers are

assessed to be Year 2000 compliant.

Most of the company’s service

providers’ compliance efforts will

continue through 1999. Major

concerns and efforts will be focused

on the company’s shipping compa-

nies in 1999.

Z Microsystems Internal Systems

All mission critical internal systems are

determined to be fully Year 2000

Compliant.  A few minor Year 2000

related issues need to be addressed in

1999.

Z Microsystems Products

All Z Microsystems products are in full

compliance.

The company’s MIS has taken the lead and worked with the Finance Depart-

ment to develop comprehensive Year 2000 Contingency Plans for the

company’s  mission  critical  application  systems  to  assure  the  continuity  of

daily  business.
