Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On August 8, 2011, we appointed Stuart R. Levine to serve on our Board of Directors.  (Our Board of Directors does not currently have any committees.)
 
Pursuant to our appointment letter agreement with him dated August 8, 2011 (the “Levine Agreement”), we will pay Mr. Levine an annual cash stipend of $20,000 (in quarterly increments).
 
We also indicated in the Levine Agreement an intention to make annual grants to Mr. Levine of 200,000 five-year stock options under our 2010 Stock Plan, which annual options would vest in one lump amount one year after they are granted, subject to continuation of service.  Such stock options would, if vested on the date of cessation of service, remain exercisable until the earlier of the scheduled expiration date or 18 months after the cessation of service, whichever is sooner.
 
We also indicated in the Levine Agreement an intention to grant Mr. Levine 25,000 fully-vested upfront shares of common stock under our 2009 Employee and Consultant Stock Plan.
 
As contemplated by the Levine Agreement, we granted such 200,000 stock options and 25,000 shares to Mr. Levine on August 8, 2011.  The exercise price of the stock options is $0.331 per share.
