Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
This Form 8-K is to describe executive officer compensation actions taken by the Compensation Committee of OrthoLogic Corp. (the Company) and approved by the Companys Board of Directors (the Board) at a meeting of the Board on April 15, 2005.
The Board approved the following cash bonus for Thomas R. Trotter, the Companys former President and Chief Executive Officer for service during 2005:
EXECUTIVE OFFICER | 2005 BONUS | ||||
Thomas R. Trotter, President and Chief Executive Officer until March 15, 2005 |
$35,480 | ||||
The 2005 bonus equaled 100% of Mr. Trotters maximum cash bonus amount, prorated for the time period in 2005 for which he was the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer.
In addition, the Board approved certain performance-based criteria by which discretionary cash bonuses to the Companys executive officers will be determined in respect of the year ending December 31, 2005. The maximum cash bonus for each executive officer is set as a percentage of each officers respective base salary. In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement with the Company, Dr. Puseys target bonus is fixed at 50% of his base salary. The 2005 target bonuses for Sherry A. Sturman, the Companys Chief Financial Officer, and Dr. James T. Ryaby, the Companys Chief Technology Officer, were set at 45% of their current base salary. The 2005 base salary and the maximum amount payable as a discretionary cash bonus for the Companys named executive officers (as defined in Regulation S-K, Item 402(a)(3)) are as follows:
EXECUTIVE OFFICER | 2005 BASE SALARY | MAXIMUM CASH BONUS FOR 2005 | ||||||
Dr. James M. Pusey President and Chief Executive Officer |
$350,000 | $175,000 | ||||||

James T. Ryaby, Ph.D. Senior Vice President of Research and Clinical Affairs and Chief Technology Officer |
$235,000 | $105,750 | ||||||
For each of the named executive officers, the bonus performance criteria include both an individual performance component and a corporate performance component, which components are weighted 70% for satisfaction of the corporate objectives and 30% for satisfaction of the individual objectives. The criteria for the corporate performance component were established at the April 15, 2005 Board meeting and include the achievement of various objectives relating to the Companys drug development program, financial operations and regulatory compliance. The criteria for the individual performance component for Dr. Pusey were also established at the meeting and relate to objectives aimed at, among other things, optimizing management efficiencies and furthering the Companys strategic plan through its continued development of the Chrysalin Product Platform.
