ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
 
On May 31, 2011, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Joseph Park (the “Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Park will serve as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer.   Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Company has retained the services of Mr. Park as the Chief Operating Officer of the Company for a term continuing through June 30, 2014 and has agreed to pay him a base salary of $325,000 per year (subject to discretionary annual increases).  Mr. Park will be awarded a sign-on bonus of $50,000, payable with the first regularly scheduled payroll following his start date, and an additional bonus of $25,000, payable with the first regularly scheduled payroll following December 31, 2011, assuming he remains employed with the Company as of such date.  In addition, for each fiscal year during the term of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Park will be eligible to earn the following bonuses:  (i) a performance bonus targeted at thirty-five percent (35%) of his then-current base salary, based upon the achievement of one or more targets to be set for each fiscal year by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, and subject to a pro rata adjustment for underachievement or overachievement of the targets within limits determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion; and (ii) such additional performance bonus for each fiscal year as may be determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mr. Park’s bonus for the 2011 fiscal year will be pro-rated based upon the number of days during the year in which he was employed by the Company.

Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, Mr. Park was issued options to purchase 4500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Options”) under the Company’s 2005 Stock Incentive Plan.  The Options vest with respect to 56,250 shares on the six month anniversary of the date of grant, and vest with respect to the remainder of the shares in 42 equal monthly installments, with the first such installment vesting on the seven month anniversary of the date of grant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Change of Control (as defined in the Employment Agreement) occurs during the term of Mr. Park’s employment, one half of any unvested stock options  that have not vested as of the date of such Change of Control shall be deemed fully vested as of such date, and the remaining unvested stock options shall vest on the earlier of (a) the scheduled vesting date or (b) 12 months from the date of such Change of Control, subject, in each case, to Mr. Park’s continued employment with the Company as of such date.

In addition, during the term of the Employment Agreement, the Company shall provide an annual allowance of $10,000 for the purchase of term life insurance by the Company for the benefit of Mr. Park (which shall be in lieu of any other life insurance benefit) and/or the purchase of a supplemental disability insurance policy.
 
The Employment Agreement provides that, if Mr. Park is terminated without cause or constructively terminated, he shall be entitled to severance payments equal to his then-current base salary for a period of 180 days.
