Highlight of Business Operations:

Although we attempt to provide competitive compensation, during the past two years, we were focused on cash preservation and the cash consumption that would be caused by increased compensation. Although we increased salary levels, as well as incentive compensation targets for fiscal 2009 after significantly improved performance during fiscal 2008, because of decreased financial performance during the second half of fiscal 2009 and the prospect of continued lower sales caused by the economy and the effect of decisions regarding reimbursement for our Urgent PC product, we froze salary levels for executives for fiscal 2010, and set incentive targets in fiscal 2010 at the same level as for fiscal 2009. For fiscal 2011, we have increased salaries for most executives by 2%, and for two executives, including our Chief Executive Officer, by 9%, reflecting both exceptional efforts in fiscal 2010 and improved prospects for fiscal 2011.

Our Management Incentive Plan for the year ended March 31, 2010 paid incentive compensation based on achievement of objectives at a threshold, at target and at a maximum, with the targeted performance effectively equal to our budget for the year. Mr. Kaysen and Mr. Jiwani were entitled to incentive compensation of 25% of their salaries at the threshold, 50% at the target and 60% at the maximum. For Mr. Kaysen, 60% of his incentive compensation was based on achievement of sales goals, 20% was based on achievement of operating profit goals and 20% was based on individual performance goals. For Mr. Jiwani, 36% was based upon sales goals, 24% was based upon operating profit goals and 40% was based on individual performance goals. Because our financial performance did not meet the threshold level required under our 2010 Management Incentive Plan, we did not pay any incentive compensation based on sales or operating profit for the year. The incentive compensation for fiscal 2010 reflected in the table below represents partial payout of the portion of incentive compensation that is based on individual performance goals, to the extent the Compensation Committee determined that such goals were achieved.
