Committee Report on Executive Compensation

In performing this function, the Compensation Committee may review executive compensation surveys and other available information.

We seek to provide an overall level of compensation to our executives competitive within our industry and other companies of comparable size and complexity. Compensation in any particular case may vary from any industry average on the basis of annual and long-term performance as well as individual performance. The Compensation Committee will exercise its discretion to set compensation where in its judgment external, internal or individual circumstances warrant it. In general, we compensate our executive officers through a combination of base salary, annual incentive compensation in the form of cash bonuses and long-term incentive compensation in the form of stock options.

Base salary levels for our executive officers are set generally to be competitive in relation to the salary levels of executive officers in other companies within our industry or other companies of comparable size, taking into consideration the position’s complexity, responsibility and need for special expertise. In reviewing salaries in individual cases, the Compensation Committee also takes into account individual experience and performance.

We provide long-term incentive compensation through our 2000 Stock Incentive Plan. The number of shares covered by any grant is generally determined by the then current stock price, subject in certain circumstances to vesting requirements. In special cases, however, grants may be made to reflect increased responsibilities or reward extraordinary performance.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

Mr. Chiu M. Chan was elected to the position of chief executive officer in 1992. For the fiscal years ended August 31, 2006 and 2005, Mr. Chan’s salary was $180,000 for each year. Mr. Chan received no bonuses or other equity compensation during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2006 and 2005.

Annual and Long-Term Incentive Plan

The 2000 Stock Incentive Plan provides that any employee, consultant or director of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities is eligible to receive stock options, restricted stock, performance awards, phantom shares, bonus shares, or other stock-based awards, either separately or in combination. The number of shares of common stock with respect to which awards may be granted under the Plan is 3,043,508, subject to adjustment. The Plan is intended to promote the interests of the Company by encouraging employees, consultants and directors of the Company, its parent corporation, its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, to acquire or increase their equity interest in the Company and to provide a means whereby they may develop a sense of proprietorship and personal involvement in the development and financial success of the Company, and to encourage them to remain with and devote their best efforts to the Company’s business, thereby advancing the interests of the Company and its shareholders. As of August 31, 2006, there were 1,017,846 awards outstanding under the Plan.

Compliance with Section 162(m)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for annual compensation over $1.0 million paid to the Chief Executive Officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers. Generally, the Code excludes from the calculation of the $1.0 million cap compensation that is based on the attainment of pre-established, objective performance goals. Where practicable, it is the Compensation Committee’s policy to establish compensation practices that are both cost-efficient from a tax standpoint and effective as a compensation program. The Compensation Committee considers it important to be able to utilize the full range of incentive compensation tools, even though some compensation may not be fully deductible.

This report is furnished by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors.
