Item 5.  Corporate Governance and Management.

Item 5.02  Departure of Named Executive Officer

On June 6, 2007 Cubic Corporation initiated the process of reorganizing the senior management of its two principal subsidiaries.  Under this plan, the President of its Defense Group (Gerald Dinkel, a named executive officer) will become a Senior Advisor.  In addition, the President of its Transportation Group (Richard Efland) will retire at the end of this year, as previously announced.  Both presidency positions will be eliminated. 

The units of the Defense Group will be managed by the existing heads of the Readiness Systems, Communications and Electronics, and Mission Support units, who will assume direct General Managerial responsibility for those businesses.

In the Transportation Group, the functions of the office of the Presidency will be assumed by a Directorate composed of existing Senior Vice Presidents.

Cubic expects to enter into a one-year Advisory agreement with Mr. Dinkel, the details of which are in negotiation and will be subsequently reported.
