<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Item&nbsp;5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant&#146;s Employee Benefit Plan.</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has notified its employees that, due to the transitioning of the record keeping
services for the Company&#146;s 401(k) plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;), it is necessary for there to be a temporary
blackout period in the Plan. During the temporary blackout period, the Company will suspend the
ability of participants in the Plan to direct or diversify assets in
such accounts, obtain a loan
from the Plan or obtain a distribution while the Company and the new recordkeeper complete the
set-up of the new system to manage the Plan.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Consequently, for purposes of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and pursuant to Section 306(a) of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Regulation&nbsp;BTR, the Company&#146;s executive officers and directors
will be subject to a blackout, as described below. Pursuant to Rule&nbsp;104 of Regulation&nbsp;BTR, the
Company provided notice of the blackout period to its executive officers and directors on April&nbsp;11,
2006. A copy of the blackout notice is filed as Exhibit&nbsp;99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated
herein by reference. Further advance notice of the blackout period to our executive officers and
directors was not possible due to events and circumstances that were beyond our reasonable control.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The blackout period is expected to begin on April&nbsp;20, 2007 and to continue through April&nbsp;29, 2007.
During the blackout period, all participants in the Plan, including executive officers, will be
precluded from directing or diversifying assets in Plan accounts,
obtaining a loan from the Plan or
obtaining a distribution.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As a result of the blackout period under the Plan, executive officers and directors will also be
prohibited pursuant to Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Regulation&nbsp;BTR from
directly or indirectly purchasing, selling or otherwise acquiring, any shares of the Company&#146;s
common stock or any derivative security tied to the value of the Company&#146;s common stock, while the
blackout period remains in effect. The prohibition covers any acquisition of the Company&#146;s common
stock or related derivative security in connection with the covered individual&#146;s service or
employment with the Company or any sale of the Company&#146;s common stock which the executive officer
or director acquired in connection with his or her service in such capacity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Any questions concerning the blackout period or the transactions affected by the blackout period,
including the beginning and ending dates of the blackout period should be addressed to
Robert Dose at (310)&nbsp;533-0474.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A copy of the notice is attached hereto as Exhibit&nbsp;99.1.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This notice is to inform you that, in connection with the transitioning of the Virco 401(k)
Plan (the &#147;<B>Plan</B>&#148;) to a new recordkeeper, a blackout trading restriction will be occurring under the
Plan as described below. As a result of the transitioning to the new Plan recordkeeper,
participants in the Plan will be temporarily unable to direct or diversify investments in their
individual accounts, obtain a loan from the Plan or obtain a distribution. This period, during
which Plan participants will be unable to exercise these rights otherwise available under the Plan,
is called a &#147;blackout period&#148;.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;306(a)(1) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Regulation&nbsp;BTR require that the
Company impose a broader trading blackout on directors and executive officers while the blackout
period is in effect. During this period, it is unlawful for any directors or executive officers of
the Company, directly or indirectly, to purchase, sell, or otherwise acquire or transfer the
Company&#146;s equity securities (including any derivative securities tied to the value of the Company&#146;s
common stock) to the extent that such equity security was acquired in connection with the
director&#146;s or executive officer&#146;s service or employment. The prohibitions also apply to any direct
or indirect pecuniary interest you may have in Company equity securities, such as Company stock
held by immediate family members living with you, or held in trust, or by controlled partnerships
or corporations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you engage in a transaction that violates these restrictions, you may be required to
disgorge your profits from the transaction and you may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.
The blackout period will begin at 3:00 EST on April&nbsp;20, 2007 and continue through April&nbsp;29, 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>In light of the fact that this blackout period will occur during the period in which you may
