Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     This Form 8-K is to describe executive officer compensation actions taken by the Compensation Committee of OrthoLogic Corp. (the “Company”) and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) at a meeting of the Board on April 15, 2005.

     The Board approved the following cash bonus for Thomas R. Trotter, the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer for service during 2005:

           
     
  EXECUTIVE OFFICER     2005 BONUS  
           
 
Thomas R. Trotter,
President and Chief Executive Officer until March 15, 2005
    $35,480  
           

The 2005 bonus equaled 100% of Mr. Trotter’s maximum cash bonus amount, prorated for the time period in 2005 for which he was the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

     In addition, the Board approved certain performance-based criteria by which discretionary cash bonuses to the Company’s executive officers will be determined in respect of the year ending December 31, 2005. The maximum cash bonus for each executive officer is set as a percentage of each officer’s respective base salary. In accordance with the terms of his employment agreement with the Company, Dr. Pusey’s target bonus is fixed at 50% of his base salary. The 2005 target bonuses for Sherry A. Sturman, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, and Dr. James T. Ryaby, the Company’s Chief Technology Officer, were set at 45% of their current base salary. The 2005 base salary and the maximum amount payable as a discretionary cash bonus for the Company’s named executive officers (as defined in Regulation S-K, Item 402(a)(3)) are as follows:

 


 

                 
     
  EXECUTIVE OFFICER     2005 BASE SALARY     MAXIMUM CASH BONUS FOR 2005  
                 
 
Dr. James M. Pusey
President and Chief Executive Officer
    $350,000     $175,000  
                 
 
Sherry A. Sturman
Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer
    $200,000     $90,000  
                 
 
James T. Ryaby, Ph.D.
Senior Vice President of Research and Clinical Affairs and Chief Technology Officer
    $235,000     $105,750  
                 

     For each of the named executive officers, the bonus performance criteria include both an individual performance component and a corporate performance component, which components are weighted 70% for satisfaction of the corporate objectives and 30% for satisfaction of the individual objectives. The criteria for the corporate performance component were established at the April 15, 2005 Board meeting and include the achievement of various objectives relating to the Company’s drug development program, financial operations and regulatory compliance. The criteria for the individual performance component for Dr. Pusey were also established at the meeting and relate to objectives aimed at, among other things, optimizing management efficiencies and furthering the Company’s strategic plan through its continued development of the Chrysalin Product Platform.
