Silicon Image Announces Board Resignations
Christopher Paisley (chairman of the board and member of the audit, compensation and governance and nominating committees) and David Courtney (chairman of the audit committee and member of the governance and nominating committee) stated that they were resigning due to a disagreement over whether or not David Lee should be re-nominated to the Company's board of directors. Keith McAuliffe (chairman of the compensation committee and member of the audit and governance and nominating committees) stated that he was resigning due to events surrounding the question of whether or not David Lee should be re-nominated to the Company's board of directors. Richard Sanquini (member of the compensation and governance and nominating committees) resigned without stating a reason.
The Company's board of directors currently has three members - Steve Tirado, president and CEO; David Lee, founder of the Company and chairman of PanelLink Cinema, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company; and David Hodges, an independent director. As a result of the resignations, a majority of the board of directors is not "independent" as required by NASDAQ listing requirements. In addition, as a result of the resignations, no directors are serving on the audit committee of the board of directors. NASDAQ listing rules require that the audit committee be comprised of at least three independent directors. The Company will endeavor to bring itself into compliance with the foregoing NASDAQ listing requirements as soon as practicable.
Steve Tirado, the Company's CEO, stated, "Obviously, I am disappointed at the resignations of four of our directors. I appreciate the service that they have provided to the Company. The management team continues to be focused on executing against our strategic and operational objectives. We achieved record incoming product orders for the first quarter, and entered the second quarter with approximately 70 percent visibility. We re-affirm the financial guidance that we provided in our conference call on April 21, 2005. The Board had previously identified several potential director candidates, and I will be working with the remaining board members to quickly fill the board vacancies."
