Audit Committee

Our Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Audit Committee consists of Richard O. Endres, Chairman, James J. Greed, Jr., Joseph A. Savarese and James W. Schwartz, Esq.

Our Board of Directors has determined that the Audit Committee does not have an audit committee financial expert (as the term is defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K of the regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")) serving on the Committee. Each member of the Audit Committee is able to read and understand financial statements and has substantial business experience (including three members who have been senior executive officers with financial oversight responsibilities) that results in each member's financial sophistication. Consequently, the Board of Directors believes that the directors who serve on the Audit Committee have sufficient knowledge and experience to fulfill the responsibilities of the Committee, however, the Nominating Committee and the Board of Directors consider a variety of factors, including whether a candidate would qualify as an audit committee financial expert, when it evaluates candidates to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors of the Company.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics (as that term is defined in Item 406 of Regulation S-K of the regulations promulgated by the SEC) that applies to our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and all of our other employees. The text of our code of ethics is posted on our Internet website at www.intest.com and was filed as Exhibit 14 to our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires our directors, certain officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. These officers, directors and greater than ten-percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on review of the copies of such forms furnished to us, or written representations that no Forms 5 were required, we believe that, during 2004, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to these officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners were timely met except that the initial holdings of Mr. Pelrin and Mr. Christman and a subsequent transaction for each of Mr. Pelrin and Mr. Christman were reported late.

On November 23, 2004, restricted stock awards were granted to Messrs. Matthiessen (35,000 shares), Regan (20,000 shares), Graham (20,000 shares) and Christman (20,000 shares) subject to vesting over four years with 25% of the shares vesting each year beginning on November 23, 2005, and full vesting upon death, disability or change of control. The value of these shares based on the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2004 were $153,650, $87,800, $87,800 and $87,800, respectively. Dividends, if any, are payable on shares of restricted stock to the same extent as paid on our common stock, generally. These restricted stock awards are the only awards of this type to date, and thus constitute the aggregate holdings at December 31, 2004.

 

 

(3)

These options were issued six months and one day after the cancellation of a like number of options pursuant to a voluntary stock option exchange program commenced August 16, 2002. Under the program, participants were given the right to forfeit outstanding stock options previously granted to them with an exercise price greater than or equal to $9.5625 per share, in exchange for the right to receive a new option to buy shares of our common stock to be granted on February 24, 2003. The exercise price of the new options was equal to $3.04, the fair market value of our common stock on the new grant date. The exchange program did not result in any compensation charges or variable option plan accounting, as it complied with Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock-Based Compensation.

Value of unexercised in-the-money options does not reflect the value of any stock options where the exercise price is greater than, or equal to, the closing price of our common stock on December 31, 2004.


Change of Control Agreements

On April 17, 2001, we entered into Change of Control Agreements with Messrs. Matthiessen and Regan. These Change of Control Agreements provide that, upon termination of their employment with us without cause (as defined in the agreements) within two years following a change of control (as defined in the agreements), or termination by the executive officer for good reason (as defined in the agreements) within two years following a change of control, each is entitled to the following for a period of one year following termination:

a.

payment of base salary on the same basis paid immediately prior to termination;

b.

payment of any bonus the executive officer would otherwise be eligible to receive for the year in which the termination occurs and for that portion of the following year which falls within a period of one year following termination; and

c.

continuation of all fringe benefits the executive officer was receiving immediately prior to the termination.



Notwithstanding the above, the benefits under the Change of Control Agreements will be reduced to the extent that the payments would not be deductible by us (in whole or in part) under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code.

On November 23, 2004, certain of our named executive officers were granted awards of restricted stock, as described in Footnote 3 to the Summary Compensation Table. Pursuant to the applicable Restricted Stock Award Agreements, these awards of restricted stock are subject to full vesting upon a change of control, as defined in such agreements.


Director Compensation

In November 2004, in conjunction with our cost containment initiative, we instituted a 20% reduction in directors' fees. We currently pay non-employee directors an annual retainer fee of $20,000. Members of the Executive Committee are paid an additional annual retainer of $12,000. In recognition of their increased responsibility and service, the chairmen of the committees of the Board are paid an additional annual fee as follows: the Chairman of the Audit Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $12,000; the Chairman of the Compensation Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $8,000; the Chairman of the IP Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $60,000; and the Chairman of the Nominating Committee is paid an additional annual fee of $8,000. In addition, we reimburse non-employee directors' travel expenses and other costs associated with attending board or committee meetings.

As a result of their selection to join the Board, on May 3, 2004, Messrs. Saravese and Schwartz were granted options to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock, which became fully exercisable on November 3, 2004, six months from the date of grant. The exercise price of the options is $5.66, the fair market value on the date of issuance.

In conjunction with the reduction of directors' cash fees, the non-employee directors were awarded shares of restricted stock under the inTEST Corporation Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Plan during 2004. The awards were granted on November 23, 2004 and are subject to a four-year vesting period with 25% of the shares vesting each year beginning November 23, 2005. Specifically, Dr. Daniels received 12,000 shares, and Messrs. Endres, Greed, Savarese and Schwartz each received 5,000 shares.

We do not pay additional cash compensation to our officers for their service as directors. However, officers who serve as directors of our foreign subsidiaries receive compensation as approved each year by such subsidiary's Board of Directors.


Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2004, the Compensation Committee consisted of Dr. Daniels, Chairman, and Messrs. Endres, Holt, Slayton, Greed, Savarese and Schwartz. Mr. Holt is one of our executive officers. The Company utilizes the legal services of Saul Ewing LLP, a Philadelphia law firm. James W. Schwartz, Esq., a director of the Company, was a partner in that law firm until his retirement in December 2003. Mr. Schwartz is presently Of Counsel to Saul Ewing LLP. Mr. Slayton resigned from the Board effective as of the close of business on March 1, 2005.



Item 12:
  SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 11, 2005 (except where otherwise noted) by:

Percentage ownership in the following table is based on 9,071,408 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 11, 2005 (excluding shares held by one of our subsidiaries which may not be voted or counted towards a quorum). We have determined beneficial ownership in the table in accordance with the rules of the SEC. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by any person and the percentage ownership of that person, we have deemed shares of common stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable or will become exercisable by June 10, 2005 to be outstanding. However, we have not deemed these shares to be outstanding for computing the percentage ownership of any other person. To our knowledge, except as set forth in the footnotes below, each stockholder identified in the table possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by such stockholder.

In accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Audit Committee's policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by KPMG. On an ongoing basis, management defines and communicates specific projects and categories of service for which the advance approval of the audit Committee is requested. The Audit Committee reviews these requests and advises management if the Audit Committee approves the engagement of KPMG, for such services. The Audit Committee has also delegated authority to Mr. Endres, the Chairman of the Audit Committee, and if Mr. Endres is unavailable, to Mr. Greed, to pre-approve specific permitted services. Any such approval must be reported to the Audit Committee at its next meeting. The Audit Committee did not approve any services pursuant to the de minimis exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X of the regulations promulgated by the SEC during 2004.
