|
|
|
Q: |
Will any other business be presented for action by stockholders at the meeting? |
A: |
Management knows of no business that will be presented at the meeting other than that which is set forth in this proxy statement. If any other matter properly comes before the meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy card intend to vote the proxies (which confer discretionary authority to vote on such matters) in accordance with their best judgment. |
|
|
Q: |
How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote in the election of directors? |
A: |
The Board recommends a vote "FOR" each of the director nominees set forth in this proxy statement. |
|
|
Q: |
How do I vote my shares? |
A: |
The answer depends on whether you own your inTEST shares directly (that is, you hold stock certificates that show your name as the registered stockholder) or if your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee holder. |
|
|
|
If you own inTEST shares directly: your proxy is being solicited directly by us, and you can vote by paper, telephone or Internet, or you can vote in person if you attend the meeting. |
|
|
|
If you vote by paper , please do the following: (1) sign and date the enclosed proxy card, (2) mark the boxes indicating how you wish to vote, and (3) return the proxy card in the prepaid envelope provided. If you sign your proxy card but do not indicate how you wish to vote, the proxies will vote your shares "FOR" each of the director nominees set forth in this proxy statement and, in their discretion, on any other matter that properly comes before the meeting. |
|
|
|
If you vote by telephone or over the Internet , you will find instructions on the enclosed proxy card that you should follow. There may be costs associated with telephonic or electronic access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies that must be paid by the stockholder. |
|
|
|
If you hold your inTEST shares through a broker, bank or other nominee: you will receive a voting instruction card directly from your broker, bank or other nominee describing how to vote your shares. If you receive a voting instruction card, you can vote by completing and returning the voting instruction card. You may also be able to vote by telephone or via the Internet. Please refer to the instructions provided with your voting instruction card for information about voting in these ways. |
|
|
|
If you hold your inTEST shares through a nominee and want to vote at the meeting: you must obtain a "legal proxy" from the nominee recordholder authorizing you to vote at the meeting. |
|
|
Q: |
What if I want to change my vote or revoke my proxy? |
A: |
A registered stockholder may change his or her vote or revoke his or her proxy at any time before the meeting by notifying our corporate secretary, Hugh T. Regan, Jr., in writing, that you revoke your proxy. You may then vote in person at the meeting or submit a new proxy card. You may contact our Transfer Agent, Computershare Investor Services, at (877) 282-1168 to get a new proxy card. We will count your vote in accordance with the last instructions we receive from you prior to the closing of the polls, whether they are received by Internet, telephone or paper. If you hold your shares through a broker, bank or other nominee and wish to change your vote, you must follow the procedures required by your nominee. |
|
|
Q: |
What is a quorum? |
A: |
The presence at the meeting (in person or by proxy) of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting constitutes a quorum. A quorum must be present in order to convene the meeting. |
|
|
Q: |
How will directors be elected? |
A: |
A plurality of the votes cast at the meeting is required for the election of directors. |
|
|
Q: |
If I hold shares in a brokerage account, what is the effect if I fail to give voting instructions to the broker? |
A: |
Generally, brokers have discretionary authority to vote shares on matters that are deemed routine. The election of directors at this meeting is considered a routine matter. Therefore, brokers will have discretion to vote on the proposal without instructions from you, so if you fail to give instructions to your broker, your shares will be voted "FOR" each of the nominees for director, unless your broker refrains from exercising its discretion. |
|
|
Q: |
What is the effect if I abstain or withhold my vote? |
A: |
Withheld votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. |
|
|
Q: |
Do the directors and officers of inTEST have an interest in the outcome of the matters to be voted on? |
A: |
Our directors and officers will not receive any special benefit as a result of the outcome of the matter to be voted on, except that our non-employee directors will receive compensation for such service as described elsewhere in this proxy statement under the heading "Director Compensation." |
|
|
Q: |
How many shares do the directors and officers of inTEST beneficially own, and how do they plan to vote their shares? |
A: |
Directors and executive officers, who, as of April 16, 2008, had beneficial ownership (or had the right to acquire beneficial ownership within sixty days following April 16, 2008) of approximately 23% of our outstanding common stock, are expected to vote, or direct the voting of their shares, in favor of the election of the six nominees for director set forth in this proxy statement. |
|
|
Q: |
Who will count the votes? |
A: |
Our Transfer Agent will count the votes cast by proxy. The Assistant Secretary of inTEST will count the votes cast in person at the meeting and will serve as the Inspector of Election. |
|
|
Q: |
Who can attend the meeting? |
A: |
All stockholders are invited to attend the meeting. |
|
|
Q: |
Are there any expenses associated with collecting the stockholder votes? |
A: |
We will reimburse brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and other materials to our stockholders. We do not anticipate hiring an agency to solicit votes from stockholders at this time; however, if we determine that such action would be appropriate or necessary, we would pay the cost of such service. Officers and other employees of inTEST may solicit proxies in person or by telephone but will receive no special compensation for doing so. |
VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS
The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 16, 2008 (except where otherwise noted) by:
Percentage ownership in the following table is based on 9,527,206 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 16, 2008. We have determined beneficial ownership in the table in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by any person or group of persons and the percentage ownership of that person or group, shares of common stock subject to options held by such person or group of persons that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable by June 15, 2008 ("Option Shares"), are deemed to be beneficially owned by such person and outstanding for the calculation of such person's percentage ownership. 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 following the table, 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.

Biographical and Other Information Regarding inTEST's Directors
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Committees of the Board of Directors
Our Board of Directors has five standing Committees: an Executive Committee, an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and an Intellectual Property Committee. Copies of the charters of each of these committees are posted on our website: www.intest.com.
The Executive Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to exercise all powers and authority of the Board of Directors in the management of our business and affairs during intervals between meetings of the Board of Directors, and to provide oversight of, and make recommendations to, the Board of Directors regarding corporate initiatives and strategies. During 2007, the Committee consisted of Alyn R. Holt, Chairman, Robert E. Matthiessen, Stuart F. Daniels, and James W. Schwartz. The Committee held three meetings during 2007.
The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to our financial management and controls. The Committee's primary oversight responsibilities relate to the integrity of our accounting and financial reporting processes, audits of our financial statements, and systems of internal control over financial reporting and accounting matters, and the independence, qualifications, retention, and performance of our independent registered public accounting firm. During 2007, the members of the Committee included Thomas J. Reilly, Chairman, Stuart F. Daniels, James J. Greed and James W. Schwartz. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Reilly meets the criteria of an "audit committee financial expert" as that term is defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-K. The Board of Directors has also determined that each of the members of the Committee is independent within the meaning of Rule 4200. The Committee held eight meetings during 2007.
The Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to review, evaluate, and make recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the compensation and benefit programs of our executive officers and to administer our equity based compensation plans. During 2007, the members of the Committee included Stuart F. Daniels, Chairman, James J. Greed, James W. Schwartz, Thomas J. Reilly, and Alyn R. Holt (through March 2007 when he resigned from the Committee). Prior to Mr. Holt's resignation, the Committee was not comprised solely of independent directors. Thus, the recommendation of a majority of the independent directors of the Board (all of whom served on the Committee) was required before Board approval of any Committee recommendation regarding compensation of executive officers. Following Mr. Holt's resignation, the Committee has been comprised solely of independent directors. The Committee held four meetings during 2007.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to select and recommend to the Board the director nominees to be presented for election at future annual meetings of stockholders and to review and assess our corporate governance procedures. During 2007, the members of the Committee included James J. Greed, Chairman, Stuart F. Daniels, James W. Schwartz and Thomas J. Reilly. The Board of Directors has determined that each of the members of the Committee is independent within the meaning of Rule 4200. See "Nominating Procedures" for information regarding the process for identifying and evaluating nominees, procedures for stockholder nominations and director qualifications. The Committee held three meetings during 2007.
The Intellectual Property Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors to review, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board regarding the development, protection, and acquisition of intellectual property that is or may be used in our business. During 2007, the members of the Committee included Stuart F. Daniels, Chairman, Alyn R. Holt and Robert E. Matthiessen. Daniel J. Graham and certain other members of our management team serve as non-voting members of the Committee. The Committee held four meetings in 2007.
Meetings
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Board of Directors held a total of nine meetings. Each of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and meetings of any committee of which he was a member, which were held during the time in which he was a director or a committee member, as applicable.
All members of the Board of Directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend our annual meetings of stockholders. Five of our directors attended the 2007 Annual Meeting held on June 13, 2007.
Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors
Stockholders who wish to communicate directly with the Board of Directors, or with a particular director, may send a letter addressed to our Secretary at 7 Esterbrook Lane, Cherry Hill, NJ 08003. The mailing envelope must contain a clear notation indicating that the enclosed letter is a "Stockholder Board Communication" or "Stockholder Director Communication." All such letters must identify the author as a stockholder and clearly state whether the intended recipients are all members of the Board or just certain specified individual directors. The Secretary will make copies of all such letters and circulate them to the directors addressed. If a stockholder wishes the communication to be confidential, such stockholder must clearly indicate on the envelope that the communication is "confidential." The Secretary will then forward such communication, unopened, to the directors, or director, specified on the envelope, or if none, to the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Compensation Procedures
The Compensation Committee was comprised solely of independent directors subsequent to the resignation of Mr. Holt from the Committee in March 2007. Prior to Mr. Holt's resignation from the Committee, all compensation decisions were recommended to the Board of Directors for approval by the Compensation Committee and a majority of the independent directors. Under Delaware state law, the Committee has the authority to delegate any or all of its powers and authority to one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the Committee. No such delegation of authority to a subcommittee has occurred.
The process of considering and determining compensation for executive officers and directors is initiated by a review of the individual contributions and performance of each executive officer. Our Executive Chairman is responsible for preparing the evaluation of the President and Chief Executive Officer and for submitting that evaluation to the Committee with his recommendation for the compensation of the President and Chief Executive Officer. The President and Chief Executive Officer is responsible for evaluating the Chief Financial Officer and each of the General Managers of our Product Segments and for presenting his evaluations of these officers to the Compensation Committee with his recommendations for compensation.. The Executive Chairman's compensation is determined by the Committee based upon its assessment of the performance of the Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer's overall recommendations regarding executive compensation.
Management periodically obtains survey data of comparably situated companies from Economic Research Institute ("ERI") to guide it in its compensation recommendations. The specific parameters defined for ERI are job description, company revenue size, company SIC code and geographic location. Based upon these inputs, ERI supplies base salaries, incentive and total compensation information for comparable job descriptions. Where comparable job descriptions do not exist, further analysis is necessary to determine appropriate comparable compensation parameters. Thus, because it is our policy to have both an Executive Chairman and a President and Chief Executive Officer, the starting point for our consideration of the compensation for these two positions is determined by combining the ERI data for the position of "Outside Chairman" and the position of "President and Chief Executive Officer" and adjusting for the additional activities and responsibilities of our Executive Chairman.
Changes to director compensation are periodically considered by the Committee and recommended to the Board of Directors for approval. Such changes may be proposed by any director. Any change in the compensation of any director or any group of directors is approved by a majority of non-interested directors, and, if such recommendation applies to the compensation of all directors, by a majority of the independent directors in addition to a majority of the directors then in office. Information regarding director compensation at comparable companies is also obtained periodically from ERI.
Nominating Procedures
Generally, in order to identify and evaluate director nominees, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assesses the qualifications, expertise, performance and willingness to serve of each current director. If as a result of such assessment, or at any other time during the year, the Board of Directors determines a need to add a new director with specific qualifications or to fill a vacancy on the Board, a search will be initiated utilizing appropriate staff support, input from other directors, senior management, and outside contacts, consideration of nominees previously submitted by stockholders, and, if deemed necessary or appropriate, retention of a search firm. An initial slate of candidates satisfying the specific qualifications, if any, and otherwise qualifying for membership on the Board, will be identified and reviewed by the Committee and the Board. The candidates will be prioritized and a determination made as to whether a member of the Committee, another director or member of senior management has a relationship with the preferred candidate and can initiate contacts. If not, contact may be initiated by a search firm. The Chairman and one or more members of the Committee or the Board will interview the prospective candidate. Evaluations and recommendations of the interviewers will be shared with the Committee for final evaluation. The Committee will then meet to consider such recommendations and to determine which candidate (or candidates) it will recommend to the Board for approval. The Committee will evaluate all nominees for director, including nominees recommended by a stockholder, on the same basis.
Each of the nominees for director included in this proxy statement were recommended for re-election by the Committee (which is comprised solely of independent directors) and approved by the Board of Directors, including the Executive Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Overview of Executive Compensation Program
The Compensation Committee is committed to the general principle that executive compensation should be commensurate with our performance and the performance of the individual executive officer. The primary objectives of our executive compensation program are to:
Decisions regarding our executive compensation program reflect the individual contributions and performance of each executive officer as well as our overall business goals and strategies, the business cycle of our industry and prior cost-containment initiatives and adjustments. In addition, our executive compensation program has been developed with reference to the executive compensation practices of comparable companies in our industry to ensure that the total compensation opportunity provided to our executives is competitive with the market in which we compete for executive talent. Underlying our executive compensation program, particularly, in the case of executive officers who have price-setting authority, is the philosophy that the interests of our stockholders are best served by a program that includes a significant incentive or variable component based on our performance. In allocating total compensation between fixed pay, such as base salary and benefits, and variable pay for these executive officers, our general policy has been to structure compensation so that the portion achievable through variable pay represents approximately one third of the executive's total compensation opportunity.
The primary elements of our executive compensation include fixed base salary and benefits, variable performance compensation, stock-awards and change in control payments. The following sections set forth certain information with respect to the compensation we paid, or recognized as an expense in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment," to our Chief Executive Officer and all of our other executive officers who were serving as such at December 31, 2007. These officers are referred to as our "Named Executive Officers."

Employment Agreements. We have not entered into any employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers. However, as discussed in the "Potential Payments Upon Termination Following a Change of Control" section presented on the following page, we have entered into agreements with Messrs. Matthiessen and Regan which provide for the payment of certain benefits in the event of termination of employment following a change in control.
Variable Compensation. Variable compensation for 2007 was determined for each of our executive officers, other than our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Chairman, under a pre-established formula tied to our pre-tax profitability as follows:
The amounts of annual variable compensation earned by our Named Executive Officers, other than our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Chairman, for 2007 is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table under the column "Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation."
In lieu of formula-based variable compensation, our Chief Financial Officer was eligible for a discretionary bonus, subject to the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer and approval of the Compensation Committee. The amount of discretionary bonus awarded to our Chief Financial Officer for 2007 is included in the Summary Compensation Table under the "Bonus" column.
Incentive compensation is not provided to our Executive Chairman who is one of our significant stockholders.
Grants of Stock-Based Awards. During 2007, we granted restricted stock awards to our Named Executive Officers as follows: Matthiessen: 10,000 shares; Regan: 10,000 shares; Graham: 9,000 shares; Christman: 9,000 shares; and Pelrin: 9,000 shares. These restricted stock awards will vest in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant. Vesting of restricted stock awards is also accelerated in the event of the executive officer's death or disability or in the event of a change of control.
Retirement Benefits. Our executive officers are provided retirement benefits under the same tax-qualified 401(k) plan provided to other employees working in the same product segment as the officer. In the case of our Named Executive Officers other than Mr. Pelrin, this 401(k) plan allows participants to make contributions from their own salary on a pre-tax basis and provides an employer matching contribution not to exceed $4,750 a year. Mr. Pelrin participates in the 401(k) plan provided to employees in the Temperature Management Product Segment which limits employer matching contribution to $2,375 and provides an employer profit sharing contribution, allocated to eligible participants on a pro rata basis based on compensation. The amount of employer contributions made to our 401(k) plans for our Named Executive Officers for 2006 and 2007 are included in the column entitled "All Other Compensation" in the Summary Compensation Table. We do not provide any other retirement benefits to our executive officers.

Potential Payments Upon Termination Following a Change in Control.
We have Change of Control Agreements with Messrs. Matthiessen and Regan. These Change of Control Agreements provide for the payment of certain benefits upon the executive's termination of employment by us without Cause or by the executive for Good Reason within two years following a Change of Control. These benefits consist of the continuation of the executive's base salary and fringe benefits for the one year period following the termination of his employment and, in the case of Mr. Matthiessen, payment of the variable performance based compensation that he would have earned for such one year period, and, in the case of Mr. Regan, payment of an amount calculated to approximate the discretionary bonus that he would otherwise have received for such one year period.Under the Change of Control Agreements, a termination for "Cause" means the executive's termination by us because of an act of fraud upon the Company, his willful refusal to perform the duties assigned to him by the Board or his conviction for any crime involving dishonesty or breach of trust or for any crime that is a felony or of moral turpitude.
A termination for "Good Cause" under the Change of Control Agreements means the executive's voluntary termination because of a material adverse change in his status, responsibilities or benefits; a failure to be nominated or elected to his current officer position; an assignment of duties inconsistent with his current officer position; a reduction in salary or variable performance based compensation; or a requirement to relocate more than thirty miles from his current office.
The benefits payable under the Change of Control Agreements are subject to the release of any claims that Messrs. Matthiessen and Regan may have against us pursuant to the agreements as we may request. Fringe benefits will be reduced or eliminated to the extent that comparable benefits are received from another source. Furthermore, the benefits 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.
Also, in the event of a Change of Control, all equity awards issued to our executive officers become 100% vested. For purposes of equity awards under the inTEST Corporation 2007 Stock Plan, the definition of Change in Control is the same as defined above. For purposes of the Amended and Restated inTEST Corporation 1997 Stock Plan (equity awards issued prior to March 31, 2007), a Change of Control occurs in the event of:

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 stockholders 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 2007, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to these officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners were timely met.
