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

On August 9, 2007, Spherix Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that:

· The Company will engage in the health science consulting business;

· The Company has engaged Claire Kruger to manage this new line of business; and

· If the Company successfully completes its sale of its InfoSpherix Incorporated subsidiary (“InfoSpherix”), Ms. Kruger will become Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer of the Company.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1

Ms. Kruger, age 49, has joined the Company effective August 1, 2007 as Director of Health Sciences. It is expected that she will be elected as CEO and COO of the Company at the first board meeting following the anticipated sale of InfoSpherix. A stockholders meeting is currently scheduled for August 15, 2007, to approve the sale of InfoSpherix, and if approved at such meeting, the sale is expected to be finalized shortly thereafter. It is further expected that Ms. Kruger will be added to the Board of Directors at such meeting.

During the past five (5) years, Ms. Kruger has been a Principal of ENVIRON International Corporation (“ENVIRON”). Ms. Kruger left the employ of ENVIRON in July, 2007. During her employ with ENVIRON, Ms. Kruger provided consulting and advisory services to companies in the health sciences sector with her expertise in product stewardship, study oversight and management, regulatory compliance, safety and efficacy review and evaluation, and marketing strategy and analyses. During this period, the Company engaged ENVIRON to provide various consulting and advisory services with respect to its development of tagatose and Naturlose, the Company’s full bulk, low-calorie sweetener. Since July 12, 2007, the Company has engaged Ms. Kruger as a consultant to provide these services in exchange for a consulting fee of $20,000.

In 2006, and through the first six (6) months of 2007, the Company paid ENVIRON consulting and advisory fees of $236,000 and $333,000 respectively. The Company has terminated its consulting and advisory agreement with ENVIRON.

If Ms. Kruger is elected CEO and COO of the Company as expected, she will be compensated at the rate of $180,000 per year with the potential to earn an annual bonus of up to fifty percent (50%) of her salary if she achieves performance objectives. She will further be provided 30,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company which will vest ratably over a three (3) year period as long as she remains employed by the Company over this period.
