Section 5 – Corporate Governance and Management

 

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

Integral Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated the employment of Gary A. Prince, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Operations, effective March 30, 2007. Mr. Prince’s employment termination was at the direction of the Special Committee (SEC/NASDAQ Inquiry) of the Board of Directors of the Company, as a result of the Special Committee’s previously disclosed investigation concerning matters under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and related inquiries by NASDAQ. The Company had placed Mr. Prince on paid administrative leave effective November 1, 2006, pending developments in the inquiries by the SEC and NASDAQ and the ongoing investigation by the Special Committee.

As previously disclosed, the investigation by the SEC and the inquiry by NASDAQ include questions as to whether Mr. Prince was acting as a de facto executive officer of the Company prior to his promotion to his position as Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Operations of the Company in August 2006. The investigation and inquiry also include questions as to whether Mr. Prince was practicing as an accountant before the SEC while an employee of the Company. Mr. Prince agreed with the SEC in 1997 to a permanent injunction barring him from practicing as an accountant before the SEC, as part of a settlement with the SEC related to Mr. Prince’s guilty plea to charges brought against him for conduct principally occurring in 1988 through 1990 while he was employed by Financial News Network, Inc. and United Press International. The Company is cooperating fully with the SEC and NASDAQ in connection with the investigation and the inquiry.
