Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our directors and officers and any person who owns more than ten percent of our Common Stock are required to report their initial ownership of our Common Stock and any subsequent changes in that ownership to the SEC and the Nasdaq Capital Market. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all forms they file in accordance with Section 16(a). Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons that no other reports were required for those persons, we believe that, except for a late Form 4 filing by Michael J. Berthelot reporting one grant of Common Stock options, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to such persons.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our executive officers and directors.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (“Code of Ethics”) that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, and can be obtained from our website at www.pro-dex.com under “Investor Relations,” then “Governance,” and then “Code of Ethics.” Our Code of Ethics constitutes our “code of ethics” within the meaning of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and is our “code of conduct” within the meaning of NASDAQ’s listing standards.

Information on our Internet site is not, and shall not be deemed to be, a part of this Annual Report or incorporated into any other filings we make with the SEC.

Audit Committee

Our Board has an Audit Committee that consists of three Board members, Messrs. Isaac (Chairman), Healey and Holder. The Audit Committee is comprised entirely of non-employee, “independent directors” (as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules) and operates under a written charter adopted by our Board. The duties of the Audit Committee include meeting with our independent registered public accounting firm to review the scope of the annual audit and to review our quarterly and annual financial statements before the statements are released to our shareholders. The Audit Committee also evaluates the independent public accounting firm’s performance and appoints or replaces the independent public accounting firm subject, if applicable, to the consideration of shareholder ratification for the ensuing fiscal year. A copy of the Audit Committee’s current charter may be found at our website at www.pro-dex.com under “Investor Relations,” then “Governance,” and then “Audit Committee Charter.” The Audit Committee and Board have confirmed that the Audit Committee does and will continue to include at least three independent directors and has confirmed that Mr. Isaac meets applicable SEC regulations for designation as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” based upon his experience noted herein.
