On January 16, 2012, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of QuickLogic Corporation (the “Company”) approved the fiscal year 2012 target compensation of E. Thomas Hart, the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board. Effective January 1, 2012, Mr. Hart’s base salary will be reduced from $350,000 to $258,500 and his target bonus will be reduced from $150,500 to $129,250. In January 2011, Mr. Hart transitioned from Chairman & CEO to Executive Chairman of the Board. The adjustment in target compensation reflects Mr. Hart’s changing role with the Company while recognizing his continuing involvement with and contribution to the Company. The Board expects to annually reevaluate Mr. Hart’s target compensation as his corporate responsibilities change.
