State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
We are unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“Form 10-K”). We have experienced unforeseen delays in collecting and compiling certain financial and other related data that would be included in the Form 10-K regarding the Enterprise business that we acquired from Motorola Solutions on October 27, 2014. We could not have obtained this information without unreasonable effort or expense. We are working diligently to finalize this data and anticipate filing our Form 10-K within the prescribed period allowed by Rule 12b-25.

| (2) | Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s). Yes x No ¨ |
| (3) | Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? Yes x No ¨ |
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
As discussed in Part III above, the acquisition of the Enterprise business from Motorola Solutions, Inc., on October 27, 2014, and the complexity of matters related thereto, including the timing and scale of the acquisition, have required substantial management time and attention and a delay has occurred in our normal year end closing process and the preparation of our financial statements and other documentation relating to the Annual Report on Form 10-K. As a result, we have not yet finalized the results of the acquired business for the impacted period and are currently unable to provide a more quantitative explanation of the anticipated change in our results from operations with reasonable certainty.
