On June 9, 2011, the Board of Directors appointed Mr. David J. Voyticky, a member of its Board, as President of the Company.  Previously, Mr. Scott Boruff, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has also held the title of President.  Mr. Boruff will continue as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Company has entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Voyticky with an initial term of two years that will automatically renew for successive one year periods unless it is not renewed upon 60 days written notice by either the Company or Mr. Voyticky.  Under the Agreement, Mr. Voyticky is to receive an annual base salary of $475,000, and a stock option grant of 2,300,000 shares at an exercise price of $5.35 per share vesting over four years, which is contingent upon continued service to the Company.  In addition, Mr. Voyticky will receive an annual incentive opportunity to be determined each year by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors which will range between 100% to 300% of Mr. Voyticky’s base salary.  Mr. Voyticky will also receive a $1,000 per month automobile allowance.  The agreement contains a maximum severance amount of one year’s salary, which is only payable in the case of termination without cause, and a one-year non-compete clause. Upon a termination of employment because of a change in control of the Company, Mr. Voyticky will be paid an amount equal to 2.99 multiplied by his annualized salary that he is then earning, payable in a lump-sum payment upon the closing of the change in control.  Mr. Voyticky will receive the same benefits that all of our employees receive with respect to health and life insurance.

Mr. Voyticky has served on the Board of Directors since April 26, 2010.  Mr. Voyticky will retain his seat on the Board of Directors, but like our other employee Directors, will not receive any additional compensation for his Board service. Mr. Voyticky was not considered an independent Director and is not a member of any committee of the Board.

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.46.
