      salary and director fee reduction was adopted in order to reduce the Company&#8217;s
      operating expenses in the short term while continuing to develop the Company&#8217;s
      next-generation IP storage products. On March 14, 2006 in a cost reduction
      measure, the Company terminated the employment of Andre Hedrick, Chief Technical
      Officer, and two other employees. The Company expects to save $326,000 per
      quarter as a result of such salary and director fee reductions coupled with
      the
      resignation of Dan Grey, CEO &amp; President and the savings as a result of the
      termination of the three previously mentioned employees. The Company expects
      that employees of the Company will sell shares granted pursuant to such stock
      grants as they vest in order to cover their personal expenses, and that such
      selling may have a depressive effect on the Company&#8217;s stock price in the short
      term.</font></div>

ITEM
      1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
Stockholder
      Approval of 2006 Equity Incentive Plan
On
      March
      21, 2006, the stockholders of SBE, Inc. (the "Company") approved the Company's
      2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") and the reservation of 1,500,000 shares
      of the Company's Common Stock for issuance thereunder. All material terms of the
      Plan were described in the Company's proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with
      the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2006 and are incorporated
      herein by reference.
Approval
      of Chief Executive Officer Terms of Compensation
On
      March
      21, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company
      (the "Compensation Committee") approved new compensation terms for Kenneth G.
      Yamamoto, who was appointed recently as President and Chief Executive Officer
      of
      the Company. These new compensation terms comprise the following: (a) an annual
      base salary of $225,000 (subject to reduction during the Company's salary
      reduction program as described below); (b) an option to purchase 100,000 shares
      of the Company's common stock described in more detail below; and (c) a
      restricted stock grant of 15,000 shares of the Company's common stock described
      in more detail below. In addition, Mr. Yamamoto would enter into the Company's
      standard Executive Severance Benefits Agreement, which provides that if, within
      six months after a change in control of the Company, Mr. Yamamoto's employment
      is terminated by the Company without cause or Mr. Yamamoto resigns for certain
      reasons specified in the agreement, then Mr. Yamamoto would be entitled to
      receive severance payments equal to six months of his then base salary,
      acceleration in full of all outstanding options held by him and a pro rata
      portion of any bonus to which he would have been entitled had his employment
      continued.
Approval
      of Officer Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grants
On
      March
      21, 2006, the Compensation Committee also approved Company-wide stock option
      and
      restricted stock bonus grants. The option and bonus grants made to the executive
      officers of the Company (including persons who constitute the Company's "named
      executive officers" within the meaning of Item 402 of Regulation S-K promulgated
      by the Securities and Exchange Commission) were as follows:
Name
                and Title
Number
                of Shares Subject to Stock Option Grant
Number
                of Shares Subject to Restricted Stock Grant
Kenneth
                G. Yamamoto

                and Chief Executive Officer

Nelson
                Abal
Vice
                President, Sales
20,000
12,000
All
      options granted have a per share exercise price equal to $1.00, which was the
      fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock on the date of
      grant, and a term of seven years from the date of grant. Mr. Yamamoto's option
      is subject to vesting over four years from the date of grant, with the option
      becoming exercisable as to 1/4 of the shares subject to the option on the first
      anniversary of the date of grant and exercisable as to an additional 1/48 of
      the
      shares subject to the option each month thereafter, for so long as Mr. Yamamoto
      remains in continuous service to the Company during the vesting period. All
      other options granted are subject to vesting over two years from the date of
      grant, with each option becoming exercisable as to 1/2 of the shares subject
      to
      the option on the first anniversary of the date of grant and exercisable as
      to
      an additional 1/12 of the shares subject to the option each month thereafter,
      for so long as the optionee remains in continuous service to the Company during
      the vesting period. Each restricted stock grant is subject to vesting
      (forfeiture to the Company) over 18 months from the date of grant, with 1/4
      of
      the shares vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 3/4 of
      the
      shares vesting each month thereafter, provided the recipient remains in
      continuous service to the Company during the vesting period.
Approval
      of Salary Reduction Program and Stock Grants
On
      March
      21, 2006, the Compensation Committee also approved a continuation in its
      company-wide salary reduction program, subject to certain modifications. In
      the
      modified program, each employee's salary (in most cases as it existed prior to
      implementation of the Company's salary reduction program in January 2006) would
      be reduced by the following percentage: (a) for employees with an original
      base
      salary of less than $100,000, 10%; (b) for employees with a title below that
      of
      Director with an original base salary of $100,000 or higher, 15%; (c) for
      Director-level employees and higher, 20%; and (d) for the Chief Executive
      Officer, 37.8%. The salary reductions will remain in effect until such time
      as
      the Board determines to increase them.
All
      officers of the Company were included in this salary reduction program. The
      new
      base salaries of the executive officers of the Company are as
      follows:
Name
                and Title
Original
                Annualized
Base
                Salary
Annualized
                Base Salary During Salary Reduction
Kenneth
                G. Yamamoto
President
                and Chief Executive Officer
$225,000
$140,000
David
                W. Brunton
Vice
                President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer
$180,000
$144,000
Nelson
                Abal
Vice
                President, Sales
$140,000
$112,000
In
      order
      to continue to motivate and retain the Company's employees despite such salary
      reductions, and in consideration of the employees' prior service to the Company,
      the Compensation Committee also approved stock grants to all employees of the
      Company pursuant to the Company's 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. At the time of
      each regular payroll date of the Company, each employee would receive a stock
      bonus for a number of shares equal to (a) the dollar amount by such employee's
      gross salary was reduced for such payroll period pursuant to the Company's
      salary reduction program, divided by (b) 85% of the closing price of the
      Company's Common Stock on a date within five business days prior to the payroll
      date, such date to be selected by the Company in its sole
      discretion
In
      addition, the Compensation Committee also approved the continued suspension
      of
      all cash Board and Board committee fees. In place of such cash payments, each
      non-employee member of the Board will receive a monthly stock bonus for a number
      of shares equal to (a) his monthly director fee ($3,750 in the case of the
      Chairman of the Board and $2,500 in the case of all other non-employee
      directors), divided by (b) 85% of the closing price of the Company's Common
      Stock on a date within five business days prior to the payment date, such date
      to be selected by the Company in its sole discretion.
The
      salary and director fee reduction was adopted in order to reduce the Company's
      operating expenses in the short term while continuing to develop the Company's
      next-generation IP storage products. On March 14, 2006 in a cost reduction
      measure, the Company terminated the employment of Andre Hedrick, Chief Technical
      Officer, and two other employees. The Company expects to save $326,000 per
      quarter as a result of such salary and director fee reductions coupled with
      the
      resignation of Dan Grey, CEO & President and the savings as a result of the
      termination of the three previously mentioned employees. The Company expects
      that employees of the Company will sell shares granted pursuant to such stock
      grants as they vest in order to cover their personal expenses, and that such
      selling may have a depressive effect on the Company's stock price in the short
      term.
