Item 1.01 — Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
     On August 14, 2008, PCTEL, Inc. (“PCTEL”) completed the sale of certain antenna products and related assets to Sigma Wireless Technology Ltd. a Scotland-based company (“SWT Scotland”). SWT Scotland will purchase the intellectual property, dedicated inventory, and certain fixed assets related to four PCTEL antenna product families for $650,000, payable in installments at close and over a period of 18 months. The four product families represent the last remaining products acquired by PCTEL through its acquisition purchase of Sigma Wireless Technologies Ltd. (“SWT Ireland”), in July 2005. SWT Scotland and SWT Ireland are not related to each other.
     The asset purchase agreement for the transaction contains customary representations and warranties and covenants.
     The revenue associated with the product families sold is approximately $1.4 million per year, or 1.8 percent of PCTEL’s total revenue.
     The Company will recognize the cash proceeds from the sale as they are received, beginning in the current quarter.
     The company expects to record a non-cash loss related to the transaction as part of its operating costs in the quarter ended September 30, 2008 of approximately $4.0 million. However, the Company expects to recognize a cash benefit in 2008 of approximately $8.9 million as a result of the transaction, in the form of a reduction of its accrued income tax payable related to the gain on sale of PCTEL’s Mobility Solutions Group to Smith Micro Software, Inc. in January 2008.
