On November 13, 2006, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K describing the bonus structure of Dr. Brian Pereira, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The Report stated that Dr. Pereira will be eligible to receive a bonus of up to fifty percent (50%) of his annual base salary at the discretion of the Company’s Compensation Committee, based on the achievement of set performance goals for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.
