Item 1.01 — Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
     On March 14, 2008, PCTEL, Inc. (“PCTEL”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Bluewave Antenna Systems, Ltd., a privately owned Canadian company (“Bluewave”). Under the Asset Purchase Agreement, PCTEL purchased all of the intellectual property, selected manufacturing fixed assets, and all customer relationships related to Bluewave’s antenna product lines. PCTEL paid cash consideration of $3.9 million and assumed no obligations or liabilities of Bluewave other than its product warranty obligations, which are not expected to be material. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the only liability PCTEL assumes is for product warranty, which has been historically immaterial. The transaction was completed upon execution of the Asset Purchase Agreement.
     The parties also entered into a Transition Services Agreement (“TSA”). The TSA requires Bluewave to supply antenna finished goods and raw material to PCTEL for up to 75 days while PCTEL ramps up its own contract manufacturing and final assembly capacity in its Bloomingdale, Illinois factory.
     PCTEL expects to retain the services of one engineering consultant and one sales and marketing consultant who are currently contracted with Bluewave.
     The foregoing summary of the Asset Purchase Agreement and TSA does not purport to be complete and is qualified by the Asset Purchase Agreement and TSA which are attached as exhibits to this report and are incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the press release issued by PCTEL on March 14, 2008, announcing the Asset Purchase Agreement and TSA, is also attached as an exhibit.
     The acquisition does not meet the “significant subsidiary” threshold as defined in section 210.3-05 of regulation S-X.
