(NASDAQ: LGVN), a leading provider of semiconductor built-in-self-test (BIST) and diagnostic solutions, today announced that its Board of Directors has reviewed and carefully considered the December 2, 2008, unsolicited proposal from Virage Logic Corporation (NASDAQ: VIRL) with the assistance of its financial advisor, Needham & Company, LLC, and its legal advisor, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, and unanimously determined that the proposal of $1.05 per share of common stock is inadequate and is not in the best interests of LogicVision’s stockholders.
