     Item 5.02(d) – Election of Director

     On July 11, 2007, Roger Sales was elected by the Board of Directors to fill a vacancy on the Board of Circuit Research Labs, Inc. (the “Company”). The vacancy was created when the Board increased the number of directors comprising the Board, as authorized by the Company’s bylaws. Mr. Sales was elected to serve until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company and until his successor is duly elected and qualified. He was elected to serve on the Audit Committee of the Board. From 1997 to 2006, Mr. Sales was the Group Finance Director of the Professional Division of Harman International Industries, Incorporated (“Harman”). Harman owns 1,638,457 shares of our common stock, or approximately 18.9% of our common shares outstanding. There are no arrangements or understandings between the Company and Harman (or between the Company and any third person) pertaining to the election of Mr. Sales. Mr. Sales retired as an employee of Harman during 2006.

     Item 5.02(e) – Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

     On June 26, 2007, the Company executed an employment agreement with C. Jayson Brentlinger, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The agreement was approved by the Board of Directors on June 28, 2007. The agreement is intended to be effective retroactive to May 30, 2005. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Brentlinger serves as President and Chief Executive Officer during the term of the agreement. The agreement has a stated termination date of April 30, 2011, and thereafter will continue until either party gives 90 days’ notice of termination. The Company may terminate the agreement immediately for “Cause” (as defined in the agreement), whereupon the employee would be entitled to receive only compensation earned through the date of termination. If the Company terminates the agreement without Cause (other than upon death or disability of the employee), the Company will be required to pay the employee all compensation and benefits that would have become due during the remaining scheduled term (i.e., through April 30, 2007). Under the employment agreement, Mr. Brentlinger will be paid a base salary per year of not less than $185,505.84, shall receive medical, dental and vision insurance (and life and disability insurance, if provided to all employees). The Company is also required to reimburse him for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in fulfilling his duties, and the Board approved up to $100,000 per year of non-documented travel and other expenses. A copy of the employment agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
