PROXY STATEMENT FOR
COMBINED 2006 AND 2007 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON JUNE 12, 2008

 

INFORMATION CONCERNING THE ANNUAL MEETING

When and where will the meeting be held?

The Combined 2006 and 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Sonic Solutions, a California corporation (“Sonic” or the “Company”), will be held Thursday, June 12, 2008 at 11:00 a.m., Pacific time, or at any adjournments or postponements thereof. The Annual Meeting will be held at Sonic’s principal executive offices located at 101 Rowland Way, Suite 110, Novato, California 94945. The telephone number at that address is (415) 893-8000.

Why is this a Combined 2006 and 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders?

The Company postponed its 2006 and 2007 annual meetings of shareholders due to the Company’s (i) restatement of its consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2006, its consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for its 2005 and 2006 fiscal years, its quarterly financial data as of and for the first two quarters in its 2007 fiscal year, and (ii) delayed filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007. The Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 on February 26, 2008. Accordingly, the Company has combined its annual shareholder meetings for 2006 and 2007 into the Annual Meeting.

When will the proxy solicitation materials first be sent to shareholders?

This Proxy Statement and the proxy card (the “Proxy Materials”), as well as the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K are first being sent to shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting on or about May 20, 2008.

What are the purposes of the Annual Meeting?

The purposes of the Annual Meeting are to

• consider and vote upon the election of five directors to serve for the ensuing year or until their successors are elected and qualified; and

• transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) recommends a vote FOR each of the nominees to the Board for the ensuing year.

What if other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?

The Board is not aware of any other matters to be presented for shareholder action at the Annual Meeting. However, if other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxy holders, David C. Habiger and Paul F. Norris, will have the discretion to vote your shares.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on May 14, 2008 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting.

1

How many votes do I have?

You will be entitled to one vote for each outstanding share of Sonic common stock you owned as of the Record Date on each matter considered at the Annual Meeting. The shares on your proxy card, included in your Proxy Materials, represent the shares you own and are eligible to vote. As of the Record Date, there were 26,383,277 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding and eligible to vote.

How do I cumulate my votes for the election of directors?

Every shareholder voting for the election of directors may exercise cumulative voting rights and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which the shareholder’s shares are entitled, or distribute such shareholder’s votes on the same principle among as many candidates as the shareholder may select, provided that votes cannot be cast for more than five candidates. However, no shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes unless a shareholder gives notice at the Annual Meeting prior to the voting of the intention to cumulate votes, and no votes may be cast in favor of a candidate unless the candidate’s name has been placed in nomination prior to the voting.

May I cumulate my votes with respect to any other matters?

On all matters other than the election of directors, each share is entitled to one vote on each proposal or item that comes before the Annual Meeting.

How many votes must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of the common stock outstanding on the Record Date will constitute a quorum, permitting the conduct of business at the meeting. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of votes considered to be present at the meeting.

How many votes are required for the election of directors?

Directors will be elected by a favorable vote of a plurality of the shares of voting stock present and entitled to vote, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, abstentions or broker non-votes as to the election of directors will not affect the election of the candidates receiving the plurality of vote.

All shares represented by each properly executed, unrevoked proxy received in time for the Annual Meeting will be voted in the manner specified therein. If no specification is made on the proxy as to either of the proposals, the common stock represented by the proxy will be voted as to the proposal for which no specification is given as follows: FOR the election of the director nominees named in this proxy statement.

How many votes are required for other matters that may properly come before the Annual Meeting?

The affirmative vote of the holders of shares having a majority of the voting power of the shares represented and entitled to vote is required for all other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Who are the proxy holders?

The proxy holders are David C. Habiger and Paul F. Norris, who were selected by the Board of the Company, and currently serve as executive officers of the Company.

How are the votes counted?

The votes are counted as received by an automated system administered by our transfer agent, BNY Mellon Shareholder Services (“Mellon”). Broker non-votes, and shares as to which proxy authority has been withheld with respect to any matter, are generally not deemed to be entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether shareholders’ approval of that matter has been obtained. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular matter because the nominee does not have the discretionary voting power with respect to that matter and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

2

How do I vote?

You may vote using any of the following methods:

• Proxy card.  Be sure to complete, sign and date the card and return it in the prepaid envelope. If you are a shareholder of record and you return your signed proxy card without indicating your voting preferences, the persons named in the proxy card will vote FOR the election of directors.

• In person at the Annual Meeting.  All shareholders may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or nominee and present it to the inspector of election with your ballot when you vote at the meeting.

May I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes, if you are a shareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by:

• Submitting a new, duly executed proxy card or paper ballot bearing a later date;

• Sending written notice to the Company’s Corporate Secretary; or

• Attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or nominee. You may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a legal proxy.

What is the difference between holding shares as a shareholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Mellon, you are considered a shareholder of record with respect to those shares. We sent the Proxy Materials directly to you. You have the right to vote those shares directly.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. In this case, the Proxy Materials have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee who is considered the shareholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shaes by using the voting instruction card included in the mailing. If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee and would like to attend the annual meeting and vote in person, you will need to bring an account statement or other acceptable evidence of ownership of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date and you must contact the shareholder of record with respect to those shares and obtain a proxy card from that broker, bank or nominee and bring it to the Annual Meeting.

Who will serve as inspector of election?

A representative of Mellon, our transfer agent, will act as inspector of election to tabulate votes cast in person at the Annual Meeting.

How can I obtain an Annual Report on Form 10-K?

The Annual Report was included with the Proxy Materials mailed to all shareholders from whom proxies are being solicited in connection with our Annual Meeting. The Annual Report is also available on the Company’s internet web site at www.sonic.com.

Who is soliciting my vote?

Proxies in the form enclosed with this Proxy Statement are solicited by the Board of Sonic.

Who pays for the solicitation of my vote?

Costs of solicitation, including preparation, assembly, printing and mailing of this proxy statement, proxy cards and any other information furnished to the shareholders, will be borne by Sonic. Sonic will, upon

3

request, reimburse the reasonable charges and expenses of brokerage houses or other nominees or fiduciaries for forwarding proxy materials to, and obtaining authority to execute proxies from, beneficial owners for whose account they hold shares of common stock.

How will my vote be solicited?

Solicitation of proxies may be made by directors, officers and other employees of Sonic by personal interview or telephone. No additional compensation will be paid for any such services.

PROPOSAL ONE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees

Sonic’s Bylaws provide for a Board consisting of not less than five nor more than seven directors. The number of directors is presently fixed at five. Unless otherwise instructed, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the five nominees for re-election named below, all of whom are presently directors of Sonic. If any nominee is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for any nominee who shall be designated by the present Board to fill the vacancy. It is not expected that any nominee will be unable or will decline to serve as a director. If additional persons are nominated for election as directors, the proxy holders intend to vote all proxies received by them in such a manner in accordance with cumulative voting as will ensure the election of as many of the nominees listed below as possible. In such event, the specific nominees for whom such votes will be cumulated will be determined by the proxy holders.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND BOARD MATTERS

Board Meetings and Committees

The Board held a total of seven meetings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. No director participated in fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and all meetings of committees of the Board, if any, upon which such director served. The members of the Audit Committee meet separately on a regular basis without any non-independent members of the Board or members of management present. The chairman of the Audit Committee acts as the chairman of such meeting of the independent directors.

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nomination Committee. Each of these committees operates under separate written charters that were adopted by our Board.

The current committee arrangement, whereby all independent directors serve on the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating Committees, derives from the fact that the size of the Board is relatively small, all independent directors have significant experience in operating companies of approximately our size, all independent directors are financially sophisticated, and all independent directors have evidenced willingness to devote time and attention to Board and Board committee activities. In the future, depending on possible changes in the size and composition of the Board, the Board may vary its current practices relative to Board committees. For example, the Board may in the future not designate all of the independent directors to serve on the Audit Committee, and it may specifically appoint certain directors to serve on the Compensation and Nominating Committees rather than have all the same individuals serve on the Audit, Compensation and Nominating Committees.

The composition and authority of each committee are summarized below.

Audit Committee.  Messrs. Marguglio, Greber and Langley serve on the Audit Committee, with Mr. Greber serving as chairman. After considering transactions and relationships between each member of the Audit Committee or his immediate family and Sonic and its subsidiaries, and reviewing the qualifications of the members of the Audit Committee, the Board determined that all current members of the Audit Committee are (1) “Independent” as that term is defined in Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of the 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); (2) “Independent” as that term is defined in Rule 4200 of Nasdaq’s Marketplace Rules; and (3) financially literate. Our Board also determined that Mr. Greber qualifies as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert,” as defined by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act, pursuant to, among other things, his association with The Pacific Stock Exchange in various capacities, including Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, and his position as Chief Executive Officer of Diagnostic Network, Inc. In these capacities Mr. Greber acquired the relevant experience and expertise and has the attributes set forth in the applicable rules as being required for an Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The Audit Committee, pursuant to its charter, is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent auditors. In addition, the Audit Committee is responsible for approving the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditors, consulting with the independent auditors about the scope of the audit and reviewing with them the results of their examination and reviewing our financial control procedures and personnel. The Audit Committee also has established procedures for (a) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and (b) the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters. The Audit Committee held six meetings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which is attached as Appendix A.

Compensation Committee.  In September 2005, our Board appointed a Compensation Committee and adopted the Charter of the Compensation Committee of Sonic Solutions. The Compensation Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors, namely, Messrs. Marguglio, Greber and Langley, with Mr. Greber serving as chairman. Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee’s functions include assisting the Board in determining the compensation for our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer; administering certain aspects of our stock option plans; and assisting the Board in other matters as appropriate. In fiscal 2007, as contemplated by and provided for in the Compensation Committee Charter,

8

Compensation Committee matters were addressed within the context of Audit Committee meetings. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which is attached as Appendix B.

Nominating Committee.  In September 2005, our Board also appointed a Nominating Committee and adopted the Charter of the Nominating Committee of Sonic Solutions. The Nominating Committee is comprised entirely of independent directors, namely, Messrs. Marguglio, Greber and Langley, with Mr. Greber serving as chairman. Pursuant to its charter, the Nominating Committee’s functions include assisting the Board in monitoring the size and composition of the Board; considering and making recommendations to the Board with respect to the nominations or elections of directors; and assisting the Board in other duties as the Board shall from time to time prescribe. In fiscal 2007, as contemplated by and provided for in the Nominating Committee Charter, Nominating Committee matters were addressed within the context of Audit Committee meetings. The Nominating Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which is attached as Appendix C.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2007, Messrs. Marguglio, Greber and Langley served as members of the Compensation Committee. During 2007, no executive officer of the Company served as: (i) a member of the compensation committee (or other committee of the board of directors performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the Compensation Committee of the Company; (ii) a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the Compensation Committee of the Company; or (iii) a member of the compensation committee (or other committee of the board of directors performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director of the Company.

Director Independence

Our Board has determined that three directors of the Board, Messrs. Greber, Langley and Marguglio, are “Independent” as that term is defined in Rule 4200 of Nasdaq’s Marketplace Rules. In making this determination, the Board considered transactions and relationships between each director or his or her immediate family and Sonic and its subsidiaries. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions were material and, therefore, inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent. As a result of this review, the Board affirmatively determined, based on its understanding of such transactions and relationships, that all of the non-employee directors are independent and, therefore, a majority of the members of the Board are independent pursuant to applicable Nasdaq rules.

Communications with the Board

The Company’s Board believes that full and open communication between shareholders and members of the Board is in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of its shareholders. Shareholders may contact any director or committee of the Board by writing to the Company’ Secretary, c/o Sonic Solutions, 101 Rowland Way, Suite 110, Novato, CA 94945, or via fax to (415) 893-8008. The Company’s Secretary will determine the extent to which such shareholder communications should be disseminated to members of the Board and what response, if any, should be made to such communications. Generally, communications will be forwarded to all directors if they relate to substantive matters and include suggestions or comments that are considered to be important for the directors to know. In general, communications relating to corporate governance and long-term corporate strategy are more likely to be forwarded than communications relating to personal grievances or matters as to which the Company has already received substantially similar communications. Comments or complaints relating to the Company’s accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters may be referred directly to the audit committee by writing to the Chairman of the Audit Committee, c/o Sonic Solutions, 101 Rowland Way, Suite 110, Novato, CA 94945.

Policies Governing Director Nominations and Other Shareholder Proposals

Director Qualifications and Process for Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees

The Company’s Board has not established any special qualifications or minimum criteria for a director nominee, or any specific required qualities or skills. In considering a candidate, the Board will consider the entirety of such candidate’s credentials and other qualifications necessary to meet any requirements under the

9

rules and regulations applicable to the Company. The Board will consider a potential candidate’s experience, areas of expertise and other factors relative to the overall composition of the Board. No consultants or search firms were used for the slate of director nominees at the Annual Meeting since all directors nominated are for re-election, and, accordingly, no fees have been paid to consultants or search firms in the past fiscal year.

Procedures for Recommendation of Nominees by Shareholders

The Company currently expects to hold its annual meeting for 2008 in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2008. With respect to recommendations of director nominee(s) for the 2008 annual meeting, a shareholder must submit the following relevant information in writing to the attention of the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices no later than a reasonable period of time prior to the production and mailing of the 2008 proxy materials: (1) the name, age, business and residence address of the prospective candidate; (2) a brief biographical description of the prospective candidate, including employment history for the past five years, and a statement of the qualifications of the prospective candidate; (3) the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, if any, which are beneficially owned by the prospective candidate; (4) a description of all arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and the prospective candidate pursuant to which the nomination is to be made by the shareholder if the shareholder and the prospective candidate are different individuals; (5) the candidate’s signed consent to serve as a director if elected and to be named in the proxy statement; and (6) any other information that is required to be provided by the shareholder pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act. Once the Board receives the shareholder recommendation, it may deliver to the prospective candidate a questionnaire that requests additional information about the candidate’s independence, qualifications and other matters that would assist the Board in evaluating the candidate, as well as certain information that must be disclosed about the candidate in the Company’s proxy statement or other regulatory filings, if nominated.

The Board will not evaluate candidates based on who has made the proposal. The Board will consider candidates from any reasonable source, including shareholder recommendations.

For this meeting, the Company did not receive a director nominee recommendation from any shareholder (or group of shareholders).

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview of the Company’s Executive Compensation Program

In September 2005, our Board appointed a Compensation Committee and adopted the Charter of the Compensation Committee of Sonic Solutions. The Compensation Committee is responsible for, among other things, (a) assisting the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to compensation of our directors and executive officers; and (b) producing an annual report on executive officer compensation for inclusion in our proxy statement, in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. In September 2005, the Board approved the base salaries and option grants for Mr. Habiger and Mr. Leighton. In January 2007, the Board approved Executive Employment Agreements for Messrs. Habiger, Leighton and Ely. In February 2008, the Board approved the Executive Employment Agreement for Mr. Norris.

Compensation Objectives and Strategy

Our core compensation philosophy is to pay our executive officers competitive levels of compensation that best reflect their individual responsibilities and contributions to Sonic, while providing incentives to achieve our business and financial objectives. Our principal objectives and strategy concerning our executive compensation program are as follows:

• To design compensation packages that will attract, retain, and motivate highly qualified key employees who can be instrumental to our long-term success;

• to pay competitively in relation to similar audio and video software and hardware companies and to provide appropriate reward opportunities for achieving high levels of performance compared to similar organizations in the marketplace;

• to emphasize individual excellence and encourage all employees, not just our executive officers, to take initiative and lead projects that enhance our overall effectiveness;

• to emphasize sustained performance by aligning rewards with shareholder interests; and

• to motivate executives and employees to achieve our annual and long-term business goals and encourage behavior toward the fulfillment of those objectives.

We do not have a formal executive evaluation and compensation program with specified performance objectives, targets or ranges. Our Board has not historically used any formal benchmarking data or surveys to establish compensation levels, instead generally relying on publicly-available information regarding compensation levels of similar audio and video software and hardware companies as well as its own general business knowledge to design compensation packages that it believes are competitive and provide appropriate reward opportunities for achieving high levels of performance, compared to those similar organizations in the marketplace.

In keeping with our compensation objectives and strategy, our Board approved our entry into Executive Employment Agreements with our executive officers in January 2007 and in February 2008 (see “Employment Agreements,” below). Our Board believes that these agreements are beneficial in that they provide a certain level of employment protection to these executives, fostering long term-behavior, emphasizing sustained performance and the achievement of long-term business goals, and assisting us in retaining our most senior personnel, all without requiring us to increase the total compensation amounts now paid to those executives. Each year, the Board, taking into account any input provided by the Compensation Committee, will review and evaluate the compensation paid to our executive officers and determine the base salary, bonus and the equity related grants for each executive officer.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

In the ordinary course, our CEO evaluates the personnel who report directly to him. The Board and/or Compensation Committee may consider these evaluations and any recommendations of our CEO in determining the base salaries, adjustments to base salaries, bonuses and equity based awards for each of our named executive officers, other than the CEO. The Compensation Committee and/or our full Board may exercise its discretion in modifying any recommended adjustments or awards to executives.

15

Elements of Compensation

Compensation for each executive officer for fiscal year 2007 consisted of a base salary, the opportunity to receive an annual bonus in the form of cash, stock and/or grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”, options to acquire common stock, and other benefits (e.g., matching contribution made by us under our 401(k) plan). We provide a competitive salary and benefits package that we believe is consistent with market practice for our industry and the size of our company, and allows us to attract and retain executives and employees. We have not established minimum stock ownership guidelines for our executive officers or adopted a policy requiring them to retain their Sonic stock ownership for any period of time. In general, all other employee benefits that our executive officers receive, such as matching contributions under our 401(k) plan, are the same benefits available on a non-discriminatory basis to our other salaried employees.

We choose to build our compensation program for named executive officers around these elements because each individual component is useful in achieving one or more of the objectives of the program and we believe that, together, they have been and will continue to be effective in achieving our overall objectives.

Weighting of Elements

We do not have an express policy or formulaic method for weighting the different elements of compensation or for allocating between long-term and short-term compensation. The use and weight of each compensation element is based on a subjective determination by our Board and/or Compensation Committee of the importance of each element in meeting our overall objectives.

Non-cash compensation includes grants of stock options and/or RSUs. Stock options and RSUs provide long-term incentives to increase shareholder value as well as a retention mechanism for highly-valued named executive officers. The Board’s intention is to grant competitive equity compensation awards.

Base Salary.  We provide our named executive officers and other employees a fixed amount of cash compensation — salary — for the executive’s work. Salaries for named executive officers are established each year by the Board, taking into account any input provided by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee and Board determine the base salaries of our named executive officers annually by subjectively evaluating the responsibilities of their position, the experience and performance of the individual.

The amount of each executive’ salary is determined based on a number of factors including:

• an assessment of individual contribution as judged by the CEO (other than with respect to his own salary), as well as the Compensation Committee and/or Board;

• tenure;

• relationship with the salaries of other executives at comparable companies; and

• our overall financial results.

For fiscal year 2007, as illustrated in our Summary Compensation Table below, base salaries of our named executive officers represented an average of approximately 68% of total compensation (which included base salary, cash incentive compensation, stock options expense and matching contributions made to the named executive under our 401(k) plan). The Compensation Committee considers that this percentage is relatively high, due to the fact that no RSUs or stock options were granted to our named executive officers during fiscal year 2007 as a consequence of the delay in our annual shareholders meeting (and the immediately ensuing Board meeting at which such equity compensation is typically granted). Accordingly, while we do not target salary at a particular percentage of total compensation, the Compensation Committee anticipates that the percentage may be lower in future periods.

Bonuses.  We provide bonuses to compensate our executive officers for their performance over the past year at the discretion of the Compensation Committee and Board. For fiscal year 2007, we did not establish a pool for bonuses, target bonuses at a particular percentage of base salary or base decisions on other set formula or criteria, but rather based bonus-granting decisions on an individual assessment of the executive’s contribution to our company and achievement of corporate goals as well as our financial performance. Further, the Executive Employment Agreements approved in January 2007 do not include a specific amount or target

16

for a bonus payment. During fiscal year 2007, Mr. Ely received a bonus of $59,861, in part based on recognition of Mr. Ely’ assumption of the role of General Manager of The Roxio Division during the year. No other bonuses were awarded to our executive officers.

Equity-Based Incentives.  The Compensation Committee and Board strongly believe that it is important for key employees who have primary responsibility for the management, growth, and future success of our company to have significant equity ownership interest in Sonic and to have the potential to gain financially from Sonic’s stock price increases. The interests of shareholders, executives and employees should thereby be more closely aligned. The Compensation Committee and Board seek to provide such ownership interest to executives and key employees by grants of RSUs or grants of options to purchase shares of our common stock in the future at a price equal to fair market value at the date of grant. The Board determines the amounts of long-term incentive awards after considering cost and dilution impact, market trends relating to long-term incentive compensation, the individual’ position with us, remaining availability under our stock option plans and other any other factors it deems relevant. We believe the term and vesting schedule of our stock options and RSUs provide additional incentive to management to focus on long-term growth and market performance of our stock.

Under our stock option plans, shares of our common stock may be purchased at the option price set by us. All grants must be exercised according to the provisions of our stock option plans. All outstanding options expire on the earlier of ten years after the date of grant or 90 days after an option holder’s termination of service with us.

Change in Control Provisions.  As further described under “Employment Agreements,” our executive officers are entitled to specified percentages of their annual base salaries then in effect and all of their outstanding unvested stock options, RSUs, or other equity compensation will immediately vest in full, in the event of a change in control (as defined). The change in control provisions in these agreements are designed to offer protection to these employees to recognize their many years of commitment to us and our continuing success.

Other Benefits.  We provide standard employee benefits to all of our employees. Benefits available to executive and non-executive employees include health insurance, vacation, disability insurance, life insurance and participation in our 401(k) plan and employee stock option and RSU programs. We do not offer any supplemental executive health and welfare or retirement programs, or provide any other supplemental benefits or perquisites, to our executives.

Impact of Tax and Accounting on Compensation Decisions

Section 162(m) of the Code limits the deductibility of compensation paid to certain executive officers in excess of $1 million unless the compensation is performance based.

When determining amounts of equity grants to executives and employees under our equity incentive program, the Compensation Committee considers the compensation charges associated with the grants. Beginning on April 1, 2006, we began accounting for share-based compensation in accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 123R (Share Based Payment). Under SFAS No. 123R, grants of stock options result in compensation expense equal to the fair value of the options, which is calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock units is equivalent to the market price of our common stock on the grant date. The expense is recognized over the option vesting period.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

Mr. Habiger’ compensation as CEO for fiscal year 2007 was established by the Board in accordance with the guidelines described in this Annual Report. For fiscal year 2007, Mr. Habiger’ salary was $350,000. Mr. Habiger’ base salary represented approximately 56% of his total compensation, with the balance primarily consisting of $266,000 for option awards granted prior to fiscal year 2007 calculated in accordance with SFAS 123(R).

On January 23, 2007, our Board approved the Board of Directors Compensation Policy (the “Policy”). Pursuant to the Policy, the Board shall review the annual compensation targets, including cash compensation target percentage, at each annual meeting of the Board for the “independent” Board members (each, an “Outside Director”) and each Outside Director who serves as chairman of either the Board or a standing committee of the Board (each, a “Chairman”). The Policy provides for an initial annual compensation target of $100,000 for an Outside Director and for each Chairman an initial annual compensation target equal to 120% of the annual compensation target for an Outside Director. The Policy sets the initial cash compensation target percentage at 30% of annual compensation target and the initial equity compensation target percentage at 70%, for both Outside Directors and Chairmen.

In the event the annual meeting of the Board is scheduled later than October 1 in any year, then, in light of the inability to calculate the next year’ annual equity compensation target percentage as contemplated under the Policy until such meeting is held, the Policy provides that effective on October 1 of that year the equity compensation target percentage for both Outside Directors and Chairmen shall be shall be reduced to 0% and the cash compensation target percentage for both Outside Directors and Chairmen shall be increased to 100%, each until the occurrence of such annual meeting.

The following table sets forth information for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 regarding compensation of our non-employee directors:
