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

On September 27, 2011, the Company’s board of directors appointed Richard “Bo” Dietl to serve as a member of the Company’s board of directors.  Additionally, the board of directors appointed Mr. Dietl to serve as Chairman and Mr. Edward Straw to serve as Vice Chairman and Lead Independent Director.

Mr. Dietl founded Beau Dietl & Associates (“BDA”) in 1985 and serves as Chairman of BDA.  BDA is an investigative and security firm that provides its services to domestic and multi-national clients, including Fortune 500 companies, throughout the World.  Prior to founding BDA, Mr. Dietl served as a member of the New York Police Department, where he was one of the most decorated members of the NYPD.   Mr. Dietl is a frequent guest of Don Imus on the Imus in the Morning radio program on WABC radio and simulcast on Fox Business Network.  He  also appears regularly on Fox News Channel shows, including The O’Reilly Factor, Hannity and Geraldo at Large.  Mr. Dietl has also been a guest host on the Fox Morning Show.

During each of the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and from January 1, 2011 through the date hereof, the Company entered into the following transactions with Mr. Dietl or related parties of which Mr. Dietl is affiliated:

 
(i)
Agreement to License Office Space.  On April 26, 2010, we entered into a two-year license agreement (“License”) with Beau Dietl & Associates (“BDA”) to license office space from BDA in New York City.  The purpose of the License is for us to have a physical presence in New York City.  In connection with the License, we paid BDA an upfront license fee of $50,000 as payment in full.  The License can be cancelled by either party with 90 days written notice.

 
(ii)
Consulting Agreement.  In July 2008, DCT’s board of directors approved a business advisory and consulting agreement between the Company and Richard Dietl (“Dietl Contract”).  In August 2009, DCT’s board of directors approved an amendment to the Dietl Contract, whereby DCT made a one-time cash payment of $30,000 in exchange for the return of 275,000 non-qualified stock options which were originally granted under the Dietl Contract.  In April 2010, DCT’s board of directors approved an amendment to the Dietl Contract to provide investor relations services in exchange for options to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.30 per share.
