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.
