Base Salary 

We provide our Named Executive Officers and other employees with a base salary as a component of compensation for services rendered during the year. Base salary ranges for Named Executive Officers are determined for each executive officer based on various factors considered by the Compensation Committee, including his or her position and level of responsibility and his or her actual performance during the preceding year. Base salaries for each year are typically evaluated annually in the first quarter of such year. Merit-based increases to base salaries for executive officers are based on the Compensation Committee’s assessment of various factors, including the individual’s performance during the preceding year and base salary history and market salary data. 

Performance-Based Incentive Compensation 

Our 2005 Employee Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”) provides the Compensation Committee with the flexibility to design cash and stock-based incentive compensation programs to promote performance and the achievement of our goals and objectives by executive officers and other key employees by allowing them to participate in our long-term growth and profitability. The Compensation Committee believes that providing performance-based incentive compensation is necessary to attract and retain superior executive talent and to align the financial interests of executive officers with those of our stockholders. A portion of each executive officer’s potential aggregate compensation is in the form of incentive compensation. There are two types of performance-based incentive compensation used by the Compensation Committee. The first type is short-term incentive compensation in the form of a performance based cash or stock award, which generally is earned upon the achievement of certain individual and/or Company performance goals for the applicable fiscal year. The second type is long-term incentive compensation in the form of grants of performance shares, stock options, restricted stock or restricted stock units, which generally are earned upon the achievement of certain individual and/or Company performance goals for the applicable fiscal year, as well as further vesting conditions such as continued employment, financial performance and/or comparative market performance of the Company’s common stock. 

In May 2013, pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued Performance-Based Cash Awards and Performance Share Awards (as such terms are defined in the Plan) to the Company’s Named Executive Officers and certain senior management (the “2013 Awards”). Under the terms of the 2013 Awards, the determination of the dollar amount of the Performance-Based Cash Awards and the number of Performance Shares which each such individual received was subject to, and calculated by reference to, the achievement by the Company of a performance goal measured by a range of targeted adjusted EBITDA performance for 2013.  EBITDA represents earnings (or losses) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization.  Adjusted EBITDA further eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges.

The dollar amount of the Performance-Based Cash Awards and number of Performance Shares of the 2013 Awards was determined in March 2014 upon completion of the Company’s 2013 annual financial statements. Based upon the achievement of certain targeted adjusted EBITDA goals, the Company paid the following Performance-Based Cash Awards to the Named Executive Officers and the Named Executive Officers received the following number of Performance Shares (subject to the vesting conditions for the unvested shares): 

|                    |   | 2013 Performance-Based |    |   | As of December 31, 2015 |   |

The number of Performance Shares issued under the 2013 Awards shown in the table above are subject to four year vesting, with the first vesting date being December 31, 2013, based upon continued employment and the comparative performance (on an annual and cumulative basis) of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ compared to the Russell Micro Cap Index.

In March 2014, pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued Performance-Based Cash Awards and Performance Share Awards to the Company’s Named Executive Officers and certain senior management (the “2014 Awards”). Under the terms of the 2014 Awards, the determination of the dollar amount of the Performance-Based Cash Awards and the number of Performance Shares that each such individual received was subject to, and calculated by reference to, the achievement by the Company of a performance goal measured by a range of targeted adjusted EBITDA performance for 2014. Based on the Company’s 2014 financial performance, no 2014 Awards were paid or issued. 

In lieu of the 2014 Awards, in March 2015, pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued the following Other Stock-Based Awards and Restricted Stock Unit Awards (as such terms are defined in the Plan) to the Company’s Named Executive Officers.  The Restricted Stock Unit Awards are subject to three-year vesting beginning in 2015 based upon continued employment, while Other Stock-Based Awards represent the grant of unrestricted shares of the Company’s common stock.

In March 2015, pursuant to the Plan, the Company issued Performance-Based Cash Awards, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Share Awards to the Company’s Named Executive Officers and certain senior management (the “2015 Awards”). Under the terms of the 2015 Awards, the determination of the dollar amount of the Performance-Based Cash Awards and the number of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares that each such individual received was subject to, and calculated by reference to, the achievement by the Company of a performance goal measured by a range of targeted adjusted EBITDA performance for 2015 as well as for certain of the Restricted Stock Units, individual performance goals, as defined.  Based upon the achievement of certain targeted adjusted EBITDA goals, the Company paid the following Performance-Based Cash Awards to the Named Executive Officers and the Named Executive Officers received the following number of Restricted Stock Units and Performance Shares (subject to the vesting conditions for the unvested shares):

The number of Performance Shares issued under the 2015 Awards shown in the table above are subject to four year vesting, with the first vesting date being December 31, 2015.  Vesting of the Performance Shares is dependent upon meeting specified criteria which varies across the Named Executive Officers and includes continued employment, the achievement of certain Company performance goals for the applicable fiscal year and the comparative performance (on an annual and cumulative basis) of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ compared to the Russell Micro Cap Index.

Retirement and Other Benefits 

Executive officers are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan and other benefit programs as described below. The Compensation Committee reviews the overall cost to us of these various programs generally on an annual basis or when changes are proposed. The Compensation Committee believes that the benefits provided by these programs have been important factors in attracting and retaining the overall executive officer group, including the Named Executive Officers. 

10

----

Our 401(k) plan allows for discretionary employer matching funds of the employee contribution. During 2015, the employer match portion was 12%. We do not provide any other tax-qualified deferred compensation plans or programs for our executive officers. 

Executive officers also receive the benefit of life insurance policies, which provide coverage up to $0.75 million. 

Executive officers are also entitled to participate in the various other group health, term life and similar benefit plans available to all of our employees and on the same terms as such employees. 

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits 

We provide Named Executive Officers with perquisites and other personal benefits that we and the Compensation Committee believe are reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program to better enable us to attract and retain superior employees for key positions. 

Tax and Accounting Implications 

Deductibility of Executive Compensation 

As part of its role, the Compensation Committee reviews and considers the deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, which provides that we may not deduct compensation of more than $1 million that is paid to certain individuals, subject to certain exemptions. The Committee has the discretion to authorize compensation which does not meet the requirements of Section 162(m) and may do so to ensure competitive levels of total compensation for the Company’s executive officers.  

OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT 2015 FISCAL YEAR END

| (1) | Awards consist of Performance Share Awards (“Performance Shares”) and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs” and collectively “the Awards”) under the Plan.  The RSUs are subject to three year vesting and the Performance Shares are subject to four year vesting and certain additional criteria, depending upon Award grant, including continued employment, the comparative performance (on an annual and cumulative basis) of the Company’s common stock on NASDAQ as compared to the Russell Micro Cap Index and/or achievement of certain Company performance goals. |

EMPLOYMENT, CHANGE OF CONTROL AND TERMINATION ARRANGEMENTS FOR EXECUTIVES

The Company and each of Mr. Willoughby, Mr. Madden and Ms. Almond, have entered into Change in Control and Severance Agreements. Under these agreements, and in consideration of certain commitments of the officer to continue employment, upon the occurrence of a change in control, all unvested options held by the officer immediately vest and become exercisable. During the two year period following a change in control (whenever occurring), if the employment of the officer is terminated (other than for cause, death, disability or retirement), or if there is a material adverse change in the officer’s responsibilities, compensation or benefits to which the officer does not consent, then, in each case, the officer is entitled to receive from the Company (1) all salary and bonus amounts accrued through the date of termination, (2) a severance payment equal to twice the officer’s salary and bonus amount (which is defined as the greater of (i) the highest annual incentive bonus earned by the executive during the last three completed fiscal years or (ii) the executive’s then target bonus, if any) and (3) continuation for two years of all employee benefits (unless otherwise provided by a subsequent employer). If applicable, the officer is also entitled to receive an additional payment to compensate the officer for any additional excise tax liability arising by reason of the receipt of such severance or bonus payment. The agreement terminates upon the voluntary resignation or termination of employment by the officer. 

In addition, upon a change in control, all unvested Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units issued to the Named Executive Officers immediately vest and each recipient is entitled to receive an additional payment to compensate the officer for any additional excise tax liability arising by reason of the receipt of such shares. 

The Company and each of Mr. Willoughby and Mr. Madden have also entered into Executive Severance Agreements. Under these agreements, and in consideration for, among other things, the agreement by the executive to be bound by a restrictive covenant, in the event of the termination of the employment of the executive other than for cause (including termination following a reduction in the executive’s base salary unless such reduction is part of, and proportionate with, a general reduction in officer compensation), the executive is entitled to a severance payment, based on the executive’s years of service, up to a maximum of twice the executive’s salary and the bonus, if any, that the executive would have received for such fiscal year (based upon the executive’s targeted bonus amount and the Company’s actual results for such fiscal year), payable in monthly installments over a period not to exceed two years (based on the executive’s years of service).  In addition, in the event of termination without cause, the executive is entitled during the severance period to a continuation of benefits and to the accelerated vesting of all options then held by the executive, and the executive is considered a continuing employee of the Company for all purposes for which the executive’s status as an employee of the Company would entitle the executive to some benefit, including the vesting of Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units.  The severance payment and benefits are reduced by any compensation or benefits received by the executive from any subsequent employer. 

Effective as of December 31, 2008, the Company and Mr. Willoughby and Mr. Madden entered into an amendment to the existing Executive Severance Agreements and Change in Control Severance Agreements between the Company and such persons. The primary purpose of such amendment was to modify such agreements so that they conform to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the amendment to the Executive Severance Agreement modified the calculation of the severance amount thereunder so that it is based on the highest annual rate of base salary during the 12-month period immediately prior to the qualifying termination. 

The Company and each of, Ms. Almond, Mr. Hess and Mr. Stephan have entered into Severance, Nondisclosure, Nonsolicitation and Noncompete Agreements pursuant to which, and in consideration for, among other things, the agreement of the named individual to be bound by a restrictive covenant, in the event of the termination of employment other than for cause, the aforesaid Named Executive Officers are entitled to a severance payment equal to nine months of base salary, payable in monthly installments, and a continuation of benefits during such period. 

The Company and Mr. Stephan have entered into an at will Employment Agreement under which Mr. Stephan is entitled to receive a base salary, determined on an annual basis, and to participate in the Company’s equity and incentive plans.

| Monica Luechtefeld (2)  |   | —        |    |   |   | 100,000 |    |   | — |   |    | $      | 100,000 |   |
| James F. Reilly (3)     |   | —        |    |   |   | 100,000 |    |   | — |   |    | $      | 100,000 |   |
| Benjamin Rosenzweig (4) |   | —        |    |   |   | 100,000 |    |   | — |   |    | $      | 100,000 |   |

|--------|

| (1) | Mr. Beatson had 84,893 options and 18,679 deferred stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2015. |
|-----|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (2) | Ms. Luechtefeld had 30,000 options and 15,904 deferred stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2015. |
|-----|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (3) | Mr. Reilly had 84,893 options and 18,679 deferred stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2015. |
|-----|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

| (4) | Mr. Rosenzweig had 40,000 options and 18,679 deferred stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2015. |
|-----|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

For 2015, each non-employee Director received a quarterly retainer (“Retainer”) of $25,000. Each quarterly Retainer is effected through the issuance of a Deferred Stock Unit (a “DSU”) under the Plan. The DSU represents the right to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Retainer divided by the closing price of the Common Stock immediately preceding the DSU grant date. Shares are not issuable under the DSU until the Director no longer serves on the Board. 

Directors who are also employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries receive no remuneration for serving as directors or Committee members. 

Mr. Nagakura is eligible to participate in the Company’s compensation programs for non-employee Directors. As the representative of TCI, however, under TCI’s current policy, Mr. Nagakura is not permitted to receive remuneration for serving as a director of the Company.  Accordingly, Mr. Nagakura received no compensation as a Director during 2015.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation 

During 2015, Mr. Reilly, Mr. Nagakura and Mr. Beatson served on the Compensation Committee. None of the members of the Compensation Committee has had a relationship with the Company or any subsidiary other than as a director or stockholder. No executive officer of the Company served or serves on the Compensation Committee or board of any company that employed or employs any member of Company’s Compensation Committee or Board of Directors.
