Interphase Executives Adopt 10b5-1 Trading Plans
PLANO, Texas, June 26, 2006 — Interphase Corporation (NASDAQ: INPH), a leading global supplier of next-generation networking technologies, today announced that six of its Executive Officers have established 10b5-1 plans to sell shares of Company stock in accordance with guidelines specified under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company’s policies with respect to insider sales.
Gregory B. Kalush, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer; Thomas N. Tipton, Jr., Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Finance; Felix V. Diaz, Vice President of Engineering and Chief Technology Officer; Randall E. McComas, Vice President of Global Sales and Customer Support; Deborah Shute, Vice President of Human Resources and Administration and James W. Gragg, Vice President of Operations and Fulfillment, have established 10b5-1 plans to sell a portion of their holdings of Company common stock. The maximum number of shares of Interphase Corporation common stock to be sold by the six Executive Officers under these plans is approximately 640,000 shares at limit prices ranging from $15.00 per share to $41.00 per share, beginning on August 1, 2006 and ending on August 1, 2007. Any transactions under the plans will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Rule 10b5-1 plans permit insiders to sell fixed portions of their holdings over a designated period of time under prearranged written plans that are established at a time when they are not in possession of material non-public information. Such programs provide for regular selling of a predetermined, fixed number of company shares in order to gradually diversify the individual’s investment portfolio, minimize the market effect of share sales by spreading them out over an extended period of time and avoid concerns about initiating transactions while in possession of material non-public information.
