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

On June 7, 2013, Henrik Hoeffner, our Chief Marketing Officer, resigned his position with the Company after seven years of service. Clark Hickock, our Chief Executive Officer, has been increasingly active in our key customer relationships and has assumed Mr. Hoeffner’s management responsibilities. The sales executives for each of our four key regional markets now report directly to Mr. Hickock.

The resignation resulted in a termination of the Employment Agreement with Mr. Hoeffner dated June 7, 2012. We have reached an agreement with Mr. Hoeffner to provide advisory consulting services to transition key accounts and advance key strategic opportunities.

We issued a press release announcing the resignation dated June 13, 2013. A copy of that press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference into this report.

Item 8.01. Other Events

We announced in our June 13, 2013 press release that we are anticipating a weak second quarter due to slower demand in Europe, product launches in Africa that were delayed to the second quarter as a result of warranty issues, and a slower than expected rollout of our new products in 2013. We believe that revenues for the second quarter will fall substantially below first quarter revenues of $10.1 million, and may be as low as $2 million.

Our quarterly revenues have always been subject to volatility based on the timing of large orders. The transition to our next generation product lines is moving slower than anticipated, but we will work through these issues and expect our performance to return to historic levels later in 2013. Despite what looks like a very weak second quarter, we are continuing to receive positive feedback from our customers about our new product lines, and expect that the second half of the year will show improved sales and results of operations.
