PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND CORPORATE GOVERNANACE
 
Board Composition

The Company’s by-laws provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of not less than three nor more than seven members, the precise number to be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors has set the number of directors at three, each serving until the next annual meeting held by the Company.  The Board presently consists of Dallas S. Clement, Oliver M. Cooper, and Lee D. Wilder. Biographical information regarding these directors:

Dallas S. Clement, age 45, has served as a director since April 2001 and became chairman in June 2007.  Mr. Clement has served as Senior Vice President, Strategy and Development for Cox Communications, Inc. (“Cox”) since August 2000. Prior to that, he served as Vice President and Treasurer of Cox from January 1999 to July 2000.
 
Oliver M. Cooper, age 53, has served as President and Chief Executive Officer since May 2008 and as a director since July 2008. From February 2006 to May 2008, Mr. Cooper served as a Partner at Triton Value Partners, an Atlanta-based business advisory and private equity firm.  From 2003 to 2006, he served as President and CEO of MARC Global Holdings, Inc., a provider of complete solutions for supply chain execution in complex distribution environments. Under Cooper’s leadership, the company was successfully sold to Red Prairie, Inc.
 
Lee D. Wilder, age 58, has served as a director since February 2008. Ms. Wilder has been a private financial consultant since 2000. From 1983 to 2000, she was an equity research analyst and officer for The Robinson-Humphrey Company, Wachovia Securities, and J. C. Bradford & Co. Ms. Wilder is a Chartered Financial Analyst and is a graduate of Duke University and Georgia State University, where she received her MBA.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

During 2009, the Board of Directors met six times.  Each current director attended at least 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings held by the Board of Directors and any committees on which such director served.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Company’s Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee. The Board of Directors does not have a standing Nominating or Compensation committee, such functions being reserved to the full Board of Directors due to the size of the Company.

Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee is currently composed of Lee D. Wilder and Dallas S. Clement.  The Audit Committee met four times during 2009.  The Audit Committee’s principal functions are to recommend to the Company the appointment of independent auditors for the Company, review and approve the annual report of the independent auditors, approve the annual financial statements, and review and approve summary reports of the auditors’ findings and recommendations.  The Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves all audit and non-audit services performed by the Company’s auditing accountants, or other accounting firms, other than as may be allowed by applicable law.  The Board of Directors has determined that Dallas S. Clement is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in SEC rules.

The Company does not have a Nominating Committee.  The Director selection and review are conducted by the entire Board of Directors.  The Company believes that this is adequate based on the size and make-up of the current Board of Directors.  The members of the Board of Directors have served as directors of the Company for between one and eight years.  The Company believes that this group of longstanding directors is capable of evaluating the performance of the current Board and the qualifications of proposed director nominees, and of determining the need for additional directors.  The Board of Directors does not have a written charter or formal process governing the nominating process.  The Board of Directors will consider director nominees recommended by shareholders.  Generally, candidates should be highly qualified by business, professional or comparable experience, affirmatively desirous of serving on the Board, and able to represent the interests of all shareholders and not merely those of any special interest group.  Shareholders wishing to suggest candidate(s) for consideration at the next Annual Meeting should submit their proposals to the Secretary of the Company at 520 Guthridge Court, Suite 250, Norcross, GA 30092 and include the candidate’s full legal name and complete list of professional qualifications.

ITEM 11.  EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our Executive Compensation program is designed to attract, motivate and retain qualified executives, reward outstanding performance and results and align management’s incentives with the interests of our stockholders. We believe that our executive officers should be motivated by the Company’s performance as well as their individual performance.

To accomplish these objectives, our executive compensation program includes two underlying components: base salary and long-term equity-based incentives. The following sections describe the process of setting executive compensation, the compensation elements, how these elements are determined, why we choose to pay each element and how each element relates to the Company’s overall compensation philosophy.

Compensation of Officers

Our executive officers do not have written or unwritten employment agreements and serve at the will of the board of directors.  Neither executive officer had a written or unwritten bonus plan during 2008.  The board of directors sets the salary of executive officers based on review of market levels for executives in similar positions externally as well as based on their previous performance for the Company.

Mr. Cooper’s annual base salary was $156,000 at the beginning of 2009 and in June and August 2009, respectively, his salary was reduced 10% and 44% to help reduce cash used from operations, resulting in his receiving a base salary in the amount of $126,600 as compensation for his services as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company during 2009.  Mr. Samp annual base salary at the beginning of 2009 was $130,603 and in June and August 2009, respectively, his salary was also reduced 10% and 44% to help reduce cash used from operations, resulting in his receiving a base salary in the amount of $105,881 as compensation for his services as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company during 2009.  Neither Messrs. Cooper nor Samp were granted any options to purchase company stock during 2009.   The board of directors considers stock options to be a vital portion of an executive officer’s compensation and annually reviews and approves grants to executive officers upon review by the independent directors of the board.

The following table provides certain summary information for 2009 concerning compensation paid or accrued by us to or on behalf of our executive officers:

Mr. Cooper was hired as the Chief Executive Officer of Simtrol on May 12, 2008.  Mr. Egan was the Company’s Chief Executive Officer until May 9, 2008.  Mr. Cooper’s annual salary is currently $78,000 after reducing his salary in August 2009 in order to reduce cash used from operations for the Company.

(3)
The Company implemented FAS 123R in the first quarter of 2006. The statement requires companies to expense the value of employee stock options and similar awards. Under FAS 123R, share-based payment awards result in a cost that will be measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest.  The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations within the valuation model and historical stock prices to estimate volatility.

Director Compensation
 
We do not presently provide any cash compensation to directors for their services as directors.  Each non-employee director is reimbursed for travel and other expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his or her duties. The board of directors has authorized us to pay fees to the non-employee members of our board of directors for their attendance at board and committee meetings, as follows: (i) $1,000 for each board meeting attended in person, (ii) $500 for each board meeting attended by telephone conference, and (iii) $200 for each committee meeting attended in person or by telephone conference.  These fees are paid as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, in shares of our common stock, with such shares valued based on the most recent closing trading price of our common stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Additionally, all new non-employee directors receive a one-time grant of an option to purchase 5,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of the grant.  The options expire, unless previously exercised or terminated, five years from the date of the grant.

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
 
We issued notes payable of $131,000 to Edward Redstone, a former director of the Company,  during the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The debt accrued interest at 12% and was uncollateralized. The proceeds of this debt were utilized for working capital purposes.  He exchanged a total of $496,500 of notes and accrued interest of $11,289 as part of the Series B Preferred Stock private placement on March 16, 2007.  In conjunction with the exchange, we issued Mr. Redstone additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of 507,789 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.375 per share.  The warrants have five-year terms.  The remaining balance of $13,500 and accrued interest totaling $786 was paid in full at June 29, 2007.

On January 23, 2008, Mr. Dallas Clement of the Board of Directors purchased a $22,500 convertible note in the Company’s private placement.  On June 30, 2008, this convertible note, along with $750 of accrued interest, was exchanged into the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred stock offering.  Mr. Clement received 31 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 62,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at that time, in accordance with the terms of the Company’s private placement.  The Company also paid $426 of accrued interest not exchanged into the private placement.
