Item 5.02. |
|
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On May 29, 2007, the Compensation Committee of our board of directors agreed to increase the annual
salary of F. Barry Bays, our Executive Chairman of the Board, to $250,000. The increase in Mr.
Bays salary was based upon his assuming the interim responsibilities of Vice President, Product
Development. Mr. Bays assumed these interim responsibilities on February 26, 2007, upon a change
in the duties of Jeffrey G. Roberts, our former Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer.
Mr. Bays annual salary will be $250,000, in effect from February 26, 2007, until a permanent Vice
President, Product Development is secured, at which time Mr. Bays annual salary will return to
$100,000.
