On
January 20, 2011 our Board of Directors appointed William B. Smith as Chairman
of the Board of Directors until the earlier of the next annual shareholders
meeting or his resignation. Mr. Smith has served as a member of our
Board of Directors since November, 2010. Mr. Smith does not qualify as an
independent member of our Board of Directors.
Concurrently
with Mr. Smith’s appointment, the Board accepted the resignation of Duncan Troy
as Chairman, but Mr. Troy will continue to serve on the Board of Directors, the
Board Compensation Committee and as a director of Sendio s.r.o. Mr. Troy served
as non-executive Chairman since July, 2010. Mr. Troy was elected to the board of
Vu1 in February 2004 and previously served as non-executive Chairman from May
2004 to July 2008.
Also on
January 20, 2010, the Company received letters of resignation from R. Gale
Sellers and Richard Herring. The letters were effective
immediately. There were no disagreements with our executive officers
or the other members of our Board of Directors leading to the resignations of
Messrs. Sellers and Herring.
Messrs.
Sellers and Herring served as members of the Board of Directors since May,
2004. Upon their resignation, the size of the Board of Directors
stands at seven members. We believe this is an optimal number for a
company our size.

to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has
