Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers


On December 19, 2011, Matt Mankins tendered his resignation as a member of the registrant’s board of directors. A copy of his resignation letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.


On December 19, 2011 the registrant’s board of directors appointed Mark S. Dailey as a member of the registrant’s board of directors and Mr. Dailey accepted the appointment on that same date. Mr. Dailey’s term as a member of the board of directors will continue until the next annual stockholder’s meeting or until his successor is duly appointed.


There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Dailey and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed as a member of the registrant’s board of directors. The registrant’s board of directors has not entered into any compensation arrangement with Mr. Dailey at this time with respect to him serving as a member of the board of directors.


Mark S. Dailey, 52, is currently the President of Interim Management International, Inc. where he guides international growth-stage information technology companies. He has served in this position since September, 2004.  He has been a member of the board of directors of UniTek Global Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: UNTK) since February 2006. Mr. Dailey is a private investor who from 1999 to 2004 held senior executive management positions including Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing of Intralinks, Inc., a venture-funded secure document distribution company, Chief Operating Officer of LexiQuest, Inc., a technology-based company exploiting linguistics and natural language processing in developing software tools to manage, access and retrieve large Intranet document collections and Chief Operating Officer of Medcast Networks, a venture capital-backed start-up delivering comprehensive medical information to physicians. From 1986 to 1999, Mr. Dailey held various senior level positions with Bloomberg Financial Markets, a global leader in the delivery of international real-time financial information. Prior to joining Bloomberg, Mr. Dailey worked for several investment banking firms. Mr. Dailey received a Bachelor of Arts degree from St. John Fisher College. The registrant’s board of directors has concluded that Mr. Dailey should serve on the registrant’s board due to his significant corporate management experience in the technology industry.


The registrant has not entered into any transactions with Mr. Dailey that would require disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act.
