Option grants were approved at the Board of Directors meeting held on January 26, 2007. The following table sets forth a summary of the compensation for the Executives:

     In addition, the Compensation Committee approved arrangements under which cash bonuses shall be payable to the Executives:
1. Bonus based on financial performance. The Executives are eligible to receive a target annual cash bonus based upon the achievement of quarterly financial performance of the Company during 2007. Each of the Executives shall be eligible to receive his target annual cash bonus after the close of the fiscal year. In the event of a change in control of the Company, as long as the Company has achieved certain specific financial targets, the Executives shall receive 100% of their respective target bonus amounts. If the bonuses based on the specific financial targets have not been received at the time of the change in control, the Executives shall receive 50% of their target annual bonus upon the change in control.
2. Bonus based on stock price. The Executives are also eligible to receive a cash bonus based upon the performance of the Company’s stock price during 2007. Each of the Executives shall be eligible to receive a stock price based bonus up to the amount of his target annual bonus based upon the average daily closing price per share of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, during any thirty day period during calendar year 2007.
     For these purposes, a change in control shall have the same definition as that set forth in the Executives’ employment agreements.
