As of July 2, 2007, Mr. J. Daniel McCranie, President and CEO of Virage Logic Corporation (the “Company”), proposed to the Company’s board of directors that he forego a cash base salary through the end of the Company’s fiscal year 2008. The proposal was made by Mr. McCranie as a contribution to the Company’s overall effort during fiscal 2007 to reduce expenses. In lieu of cash base salary for the fifteen months starting July 1, 2007 and ending September 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, upon recommendation of the compensation committee of the board of directors, the grant to Mr. McCranie of 137,000 stock-settled appreciation rights (SSARs). In addition, as an equity incentive, the Board approved an additional grant of 160,000 SSARs for Mr. McCranie. Each SSARs grants has a grant date of July 2, 2007, will vest over a fifteen month period on a pro rata basis, a grant price equal to the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock as of the date of grant and shall be exercisable upon vesting for a term of five years from the grant date.
