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

On June 29, 2011, the Board of Directors appointed an existing independent director, Berke Bakay, as a member of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Bakay, an investment manager of the BBS Capital Fund, LP, qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” in accordance with applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As a result of Mr. Bakay’s appointment to the Audit Committee, our company has remedied its temporary non-compliance with applicable NASDAQ Listing Rules, which require the Audit Committee to be comprised of at least three independent directors.
