Subject to the company having consolidated pre-tax profits and subject to the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer and the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

Each of the foregoing officers receives our standard benefits package. Messrs. Matthiessen, Regan, Graham and Pelrin are parties to Change of Control Agreements with us that provide for the payment of certain benefits upon the executive's termination of employment following a change of control, as defined therein.

Directors who are not also our officers (each a "non-employee director") currently receive an annual retainer of $25,000 (Steven J. Abrams, Esq., Stuart F. Daniels, Ph.D., William Kraut, and James W. Schwartz, Esq.). Non-employee members of the Executive Committee are paid an additional annual retainer of $15,000 (Dr. Daniels and Mr. Schwartz). The chairmen of the committees of the Board are paid an additional annual fee as follows: the Chairman of the Audit Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $15,000 (Mr. Kraut); the Chairman of the Compensation Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $10,000 (Dr. Daniels); the Chairman of the Intellectual Property Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $75,000 (Dr. Daniels); and the Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $10,000 (Mr. Abrams).

In addition, directors, executive officers and other key employees may be eligible to receive stock options or restricted stock awards from time to time pursuant to the Company's 2007 Stock Plan (incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.6 to this Report).  Awards of restricted stock were made during 2013 to our executive officers (other than Mr. Holt) on October 29, 2013 and, upon their election on January 8, 2013, to our two new directors.  There are no agreements obligating the Company to make any such award at any time, so future awards remain at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
