PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2005 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD SEPTEMBER 16, 2005

General

These proxy materials and the enclosed proxy card are being furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of Iteris, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Iteris” or the “Company”), to be voted at the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held on September 16, 2005 and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) of the meeting.  The Annual Meeting will be held at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time, at the Company’s principal executive offices located at 1515 South Manchester Avenue, Anaheim, California 92802.  These proxy materials and the form of proxy are expected to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders who are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting on or about August 10, 2005.

Purpose of Meeting

The specific proposals to be considered and acted upon at the Annual Meeting are summarized in the accompanying Notice of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders and are described in more detail in this proxy statement.

Voting Rights

The record date for determining those stockholders who are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting has been fixed as July 26, 2005.  At the close of business on the record date,                shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 per share, were outstanding and no shares of the Company’s preferred stock were outstanding.  Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held by such stockholder as of the record date.

The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock entitled to vote will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.  If a quorum is not present, the Annual Meeting will be adjourned until a quorum is obtained.

In the election of directors under Proposal One, directors will be elected by a plurality of the common stock entitled to vote and present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, unless cumulative voting is in effect.  Pursuant to the bylaws of Iteris, no stockholder is entitled to cumulate his or her votes (as described above) for candidates other than those whose names have been placed in nomination prior to the commencement of voting and unless at least one stockholder has given notice prior to commencement of voting of his or her intention to cumulate votes.  If any stockholder has given such notice, then each stockholder may cumulate votes by multiplying the number of shares of common stock the stockholder is entitled to vote by the number of directors to be elected.  The number of cumulative votes thus determined may be voted all for one candidate or distributed among several candidates, at the discretion of the stockholder.  The candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, will be elected.  If cumulative voting is in effect, the persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote the shares of common stock covered by proxies received by them (unless authority to vote for directors is withheld) among the named candidates as they determine.

1

Proposals Two and Three require the approval of the affirmative vote of a majority of the common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter.

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.  Broker non-votes occur when brokers who hold stock in “street name” return proxy cards stating that they do not have authority to vote the stock which they hold on behalf of beneficial owners.  Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business.  Abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations of votes cast on proposals presented to the stockholders and will have the same effect as negative votes.  Broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a proposal has been approved.  The election of directors in Proposal One and the ratification of the selection of the independent auditors in Proposal Three are matters on which a broker or other nominee is generally empowered to vote.  Therefore, no broker non-votes will exist in connection with Proposal One or Proposal Three.

Voting

You may vote by one of three ways: (i) by mail, (ii) electronically over the Internet or by telephone, or (iii) by ballot in person at the Annual Meeting.  If you are a “registered holder,” that is your shares are registered in your own name through our transfer agent, you may vote by returning a completed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.  If your shares are held in “street name,” that is, your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, in lieu of a proxy card you should receive a voting instruction form from that institution by mail.  The voting instruction form should indicate whether the institution has a process for beneficial holders to vote over the Internet or by telephone.  A large number of banks and brokerage firms are participating in the ADP Investor Communication Services online program.  This program provides eligible stockholders who receive a paper copy of the proxy statement the opportunity to vote over the Internet or by telephone.  The Internet and telephone voting facilities will close at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, September 15, 2005.  Stockholders who vote over the Internet or by telephone need not return a proxy card or voting instruction form by mail, but may incur costs, such as usage charges, from telephone companies or Internet service providers.  If your voting instruction form does not reference Internet or telephone information, please complete and return the paper voting instruction form in the self-addressed, postage-paid envelope provided.

If you are a registered holder, you may also vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting.  If your shares are held in street name and you wish to vote in person at the meeting, you must obtain a proxy issued in your name from the record holder and bring it with you to the Annual Meeting.  The Company recommends that you vote your shares in advance as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

Proxies

Please use the enclosed proxy card to vote by mail.  If your shares are held in street name, then in lieu of a proxy card you should receive from that institution an instruction form for voting by mail, the Internet or by telephone.  Should you receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form because your shares are held in multiple accounts or registered in different names or addresses, please be sure to complete, sign, date and return each proxy card or voting instruction form to ensure that all of your shares will be voted.  Only proxy cards and voting instruction forms that have been signed, dated and timely returned will be counted in the quorum and voted.  Properly executed proxies will be voted in the manner directed by the stockholders.  If the proxy does not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted, the proxy will be voted FOR the election of the directors proposed by the Board under Proposal One unless the authority to vote for the election of any director is withheld and, if no contrary instructions are given, the proxy will be voted FOR the approval of Proposals Two and Three as described in this proxy statement and the accompanying notice.  However, if your shares are held in street name and you do not specify how the shares represented thereby are to be voted for Proposal Two, the record holder will not be permitted to vote your shares with respect to these matters as bylaw amendments are generally not matters on which the nominees are empowered to vote without instructions.

2

The enclosed proxy also grants the proxy holders discretionary authority to vote on any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting as well as any procedural matters.  The Company has not been notified by any stockholder of his or her intent to present a stockholder proposal at the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are held in your name, you may revoke or change your vote at any time before the Annual Meeting by filing a notice of revocation or another signed proxy card with a later date with the Company’s Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices at 1515 South Manchester Avenue, Anaheim, California 92802.  If your shares are held in street name, you should contact the record holder to obtain instructions if you wish to revoke or change your vote before the Annual Meeting.  If you attend the Annual Meeting and vote by ballot, any proxy that you submitted previously to vote the same shares will be revoked automatically and only your vote at the Annual Meeting will be counted.  Please note, however, that if your shares are held in street name, your vote in person at the Annual Meeting will not be effective unless you have obtained and present a proxy issued in your name from the record holder.  Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

Solicitation

The enclosed proxy is being solicited by the Company’s Board of Directors.  The Company will bear the entire cost of proxy solicitation, including the costs of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing this proxy statement, the proxy card and any additional material furnished to the stockholders.  Copies of the solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others so that they may forward this solicitation material to such beneficial owners.  In addition, the Company may reimburse such persons for their reasonable expenses in forwarding the solicitation materials to the beneficial owners.  The original solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by a solicitation by personal contact, telephone, facsimile, email or any other means by the Company’s directors, officers or employees.  No additional compensation will be paid to these individuals for any such services.

In the discretion of management, the Company reserves the right to retain a professional firm of proxy solicitors to assist in solicitation of proxies.  Although the Company does not currently expect to retain such a firm, it estimates that the fees of such firm would range from $5,000 to $20,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses, all of which would be paid by the Company.

Corporate Governance

The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct which applies to all directors, officers (including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions) and employees.  The full text of the Company’s Code of Ethics and Business Conduct is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.iteris.com.  The Company intends to disclose future amendments to certain provisions of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, and any waivers of provisions of the Code of Ethics required to be disclosed under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), at the same location on the Company’s website.

Board Meetings and Committees

The Board of Directors held four meetings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.  All of the directors attended or participated in at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors.  Each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of those committees of the Board of Directors on which such person served, which were held during such period.  The Board has determined that each of the Company’s directors other than Messrs. Johnson, Marwitz, Miner and Slutzky satisfies the requirements for “independence” under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.

Iteris currently has several standing committees of the Board of Directors, including the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.  The Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee each has a written charter that is reviewed annually and revised as appropriate.  A copy of each committee’s charter is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at www.iteris.com.

Audit Committee.  The current members of the Company’s Audit Committee are Messrs. Seazholtz, Thomas and Wright.  Each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” under the current listing standards of the American Stock Exchange and the SEC rules regarding audit committee memberships.  The Board has identified Mr. Wright as the member of the Audit Committee who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC rules and regulations governing the composition of the Audit Committee.  The Board anticipates that

7

Mr. Char will be appointed to serve on the Audit Committee as its Chairman if Proposal Two is approved by the stockholders.  The Audit Committee held nine meetings during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

The Audit Committee oversees on behalf of the Board (a) the conduct of the accounting and financial reporting processes, the audits of the Iteris financial statements and the integrity of the its audited financial statements and other financial reports; (b) the performance of the internal accounting and financial controls function of Iteris; (c) the engagement, replacement, compensation, qualifications, independence and performance of the independent auditors for Iteris; and (d) the portions of the Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and related policies regarding the accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters of Iteris.

The Audit Committee meets privately with the independent auditors of Iteris, and the independent auditors have unrestricted access to and report directly to the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee has selected McGladrey & Pullen, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006 and is recommending that the stockholders of Iteris ratify this appointment at the Annual Meeting.

The Board of Directors initially adopted the Audit Committee Charter in 2000 and approved an amended and restated Audit Committee Charter in July 2002.  The Board subsequently further amended and restated the Audit Committee Charter in March 2004.  A copy of the current charter was filed as an appendix to the proxy statement for the annual meeting of stockholders held in September 2004.

Compensation Committee.  The current members of the Company’s Compensation Committee are Messrs. Daly, Seazholtz and Thomas.  The Board has concluded that each member of the Compensation Committee is “independent” under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.  The Compensation Committee held one meeting during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

The Compensation Committee (a) evaluates officer and director compensation policies, goals, plans and programs; (b) determines the cash and non-cash compensation of the “executive officers” of the Company as defined in the rules promulgated under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); (c) reviews and makes recommendations to the Board with respect to the Company’s equity-based and other incentive compensation plans for employees; (d) evaluates the performance of the Company’s executive officers; (e) assists the Board in evaluating potential candidates for executive officer positions with the Company and oversee management succession planning; and (f) produces the Committee report required by the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and other regulatory bodies for inclusion in the Company’s annual proxy statement. 

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.  The current members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Daly, Hernandez, Seazholtz, Thomas and Wright.  The Board has determined that each of the members of this committee are “independent” under the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held one meeting during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

The primary purposes of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are to (a) identify, screen and review individuals qualified to serve as directors of the Company; (b) select or recommend to the Board of Directors the selection of nominees for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders; (c) recommend to the Board of Directors candidates to fill any vacancies on the Board; (d) oversee the implementation and monitoring the effectiveness of the Company’s corporate governance policies and developing and recommending to the Board modifications and or additions to such policies; and (e) review on a regular basis the overall corporate governance of the Company and recommend improvements when necessary. 

In connection with their recommendations regarding the size and composition of the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews the appropriate qualities and skills required of directors in the context of the then current make-up of the Board.  This includes an assessment of each candidate’s independence, personal and professional integrity, financial literacy or other professional or business experience relevant to an understanding of the Company’s business, ability to think and act independently and with sound judgment, and ability to serve the Company’s and its stockholders’ long-term interests.  These factors, and others as considered useful by the

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, are reviewed in the context of an assessment of the perceived needs of the Board at a particular point in time.  As a result, the priorities and emphasis of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and of the Board may change from time to time to take into account changes in business and other trends, and the portfolio of skills and experience of current and prospective directors.  The Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee leads the search for and selects, or recommends that the Board select, candidates for election to the Board.  Consideration of new director candidates typically involves a series of committee discussions, review of information concerning candidates and interviews with selected candidates.  Candidates for nomination to the Company’s Board typically have been suggested by other members of the Board or by the Company’s executive officers.  From time to time, the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee may engage the services of a third-party search firm to identify director candidates.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider candidates for directors recommended by stockholders of Iteris who meet the eligibility requirements for submitting stockholder proposals for inclusion in the Company’s next proxy statement.  This committee will evaluate such recommendations applying its regular nominee criteria.  Eligible stockholders wishing to recommend a nominee must submit such recommendation in writing to the Chair, Nomination Committee, care of the corporate Secretary of the Company, by the deadline for stockholder proposals set forth in the Company’s last proxy statement, specifying the following information: (a) the name and address of the nominee, (b) the name and address of the stockholder making the nomination, (c) a representation that the nominating stockholder is a stockholder of record of the Company’s stock entitled to vote at the next annual meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at such meeting to nominate the person specified in the notice, (d) the nominee’s qualifications for membership on the Board, (e) a resume of the candidate’s business experience and educational background as well as all of the information that would be required in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of the nominee as a director, (f) a description of all direct or indirect arrangements or understandings between the nominating stockholder and the nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to whose request the nomination is being made by the stockholder, (g) all other companies to which the nominee is being recommended as a nominee for director, and (h) a signed consent of the nominee to cooperate with reasonable background checks and personal interviews, and to serve as a director of the Company, if elected.  In connection with its evaluation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may request additional information from the candidate or the recommending stockholder, and may request an interview with the candidate.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has the discretion to decide which individuals to recommend for nomination as directors. 

No candidates for director nominations were submitted to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee by any stockholder in connection with the election of directors at the Annual Meeting.  On the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board has selected and approved the appointment of Messrs. Char and Mohaddes to the Board in the event the bylaw amendment under Proposal Two is approved by the stockholders.  Each of the director nominees standing for election at this Annual Meeting is a current director of Iteris.

Compensation of Directors

Directors who are not employees of Iteris or any of its subsidiaries receive an annual fee of $12,000 per year, paid quarterly, in addition to $1,500 for each Board meeting attended in person and $250 for each telephone conference Board meeting.  All directors are reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors and its committees.

Non-employee directors are also eligible to receive periodic option grants pursuant to the Automatic Option Grant Program under the Company’s 1997 Stock Incentive Plan.  Under this plan, each non-employee director receives an option to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock upon his initial appointment to the Board of Directors and an additional option to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock on the date of each annual meeting after his appointment.  Each option granted to non-employee directors under the Automatic Option Grant Program will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date and will have a maximum term of ten years, subject to earlier termination following the optionee’s cessation of service as a Board member.

Stockholder Communications

The Board has implemented a process by which stockholders may send written communications directly to the attention of the Board, any committee of the Board or any individual Board member, care of Iteris’ corporate Secretary.  The name of any specific intended Board recipient should be noted in the communication.  Iteris’ corporate Secretary will be primarily responsible for collecting, organizing and monitoring communications from stockholders and, where appropriate depending on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communication, providing copies of such communications to the intended recipients.  Communications will be forwarded to directors if they relate to appropriate and important substantive corporate or Board matters.  Communications that are of a commercial or frivolous nature or otherwise inappropriate for the Board’s consideration will not be forwarded to the Board.  Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board can write to the corporate Secretary at Iteris, Inc., 1515 South Manchester Avenue, Anaheim, California 92802.

Annual Meeting Attendance

Iteris does not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of its Board of Directors at annual meetings of its stockholders; however, directors are encouraged to attend all such meetings.  Three of the Company’s current directors attended Iteris’ 2004 annual meeting of stockholders.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the nominees listed above.  Proxies returned to Iteris will be voted “FOR” each nominee unless otherwise instructed in writing on such proxy.

PROPOSAL TWO:

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S BYLAWS
TO INCREASE THE SIZE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The stockholders are being asked to approve an amendment of the Company’s bylaws which would increase the maximum size of the Company’s Board of Directors to eleven members.  The Company’s bylaws currently provide for a Board of not less than five nor more than nine members, with the exact number set at nine.  The proposed amendment would provide for a Board of not less than seven nor more than eleven members, with the exact number to be set at eleven. 

The proposed change to the bylaws would be effected by amending Section 1, Article III of the Company’s bylaws to read as follows:

“The Board of Directors shall consist of not less than seven nor more than eleven members, the exact number of which shall be eleven until changed, within the limits specified above by a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or by the stockholders.”  The indefinite number of directors may be changed, or a definite number fixed without provisions for an indefinite number, by a bylaw amending this Section 1; provided, however that an amendment reducing the number of directors to a number less than five cannot be adopted if the votes cast against its adoption at a meeting, or the shares not consenting in the case of action by written consent, are equal to more than 16-2/3% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.  Except as provided in Section 2 of this Article, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes east at the Annual Meetings of Stockholders, and each director so elected shall hold office until the next Annual Meeting and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier resignation or removal.  Any director may resign at any time upon notice to the Corporation.  Directors need not be stockholders.”

The Board of Directors believes that increasing the size of the Board will enhance its operations and effectiveness.  An increase to the size of the Board will permit the recruitment of individuals with supplemental or complimentary skills and experience, to enhance the Board’s performance of its advisory and oversight functions.  In addition, recent legislative and administrative developments with respect to corporate governance impose significant additional responsibilities and obligations on directors of public companies.  All members of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must satisfy SEC and American Stock Exchange standards regarding “independence”.  Several members of the Board currently serve on at least two committees of the Board.  The addition of two new Board members would provide for greater flexibility in committee composition and also allow directors serving on the committees to further their focus on such committees.

If the amendment is approved, the Board may vote, at any time thereafter, to fill the two vacancies created by the amendment without the further vote of the stockholders.  The Board currently intends to fill the two vacancies that would be created upon approval of the proposed amendment with Messrs. Richard Char and Abbas Mohaddes.  Information regarding Messrs. Char and Mohaddes and their business experience is set forth under Proposal One.

Stockholder Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the common stock present or represented and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required for the approval of the amendment of the bylaws as proposed in Proposal Two.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” the amendment of the Company’s bylaws to change the size of the Board of Directors to not less than seven members nor more than eleven members.

PROPOSAL THREE:

RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The accounting firm of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP was engaged in October 2004 to serve as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.  The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected that firm to continue in this capacity for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006.  The Company is asking the stockholders to ratify the selection by the Audit Committee of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP as the independent auditors of Iteris to audit the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006 and to perform other appropriate services.  Stockholder ratification of the selection of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors is not required by the Company’s bylaws or otherwise.  In the event that the stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider its selection.  Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its sole discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if the committee feels that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

A representative of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting to respond to stockholders’ questions, and that representative will have the opportunity to make a brief presentation to the stockholders if he or she so desires, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

Stockholder Approval

The affirmative vote of a majority of the common stock of Iteris, present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required for ratification of the selection of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2006.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The following table presents the aggregate fees billed for the indicated services performed by Ernst & Young LLP, the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, and McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005:

Audit Fees.  Audit fees consist of fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP and McGladrey & Pullen, LLP for professional services rendered in connection with the audit of Iteris’ annual consolidated financial statements and review of those consolidated financial statements included in Iteris’ quarterly reports on Forms 10-Q and other regulatory filings.

Audit-Related Fees.  Audit-related fees consist of fees billed for professional services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements but are not reported under “Audit Fees.”  Such fees include, among other things, internal control reviews and assistance with meeting the requirements of Section 404 the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, acquisition or asset sale-related work and certain consultations concerning financial accounting and reporting standards. 

Tax Fees.  Tax fees consist of fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, which include the preparation of federal, state and international tax returns, and fees billed for tax consultations, including federal, state and international tax advice, tax planning and assistance with tax audits. 

All Other Fees.  There were no other fees billed to the Company by Ernst & Young LLP and McGladrey & Pullen, LLP during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and 2005. 

Determination of Independence

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has determined that the provision by McGladrey & Pullen, LLP of the non-audit related services described above is compatible with maintaining the independence of McGladrey & Pullen, LLP.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

All engagements for services by McGladrey & Pullen, LLP or other independent registered public accountants are subject to prior approval by the Audit Committee; however, de minimis non-audit services may instead be approved in accordance with applicable SEC rules.  The prior approval of the Audit Committee was obtained for all services provided by McGladrey & Pullen, LLP in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

13

Changes in Accountants

On October 5, 2004, the Company notified Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”), its previous independent auditors, of its decision to dismiss E&Y.  The decision was made primarily in order to reduce the Company’s audit fees and to engage another firm as the Company’s independent registered accounting firm.  The Company appointed McGaldrey & Pullen, LLP as its new independent registered accounting firm, to perform auditing services beginning with the second quarter ended September 2004.  The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved such change. 

The reports of E&Y on the Company’s financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2004 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not otherwise qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. E&Y’s report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2003 contained an explanatory paragraph indicating that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

During the two years ended March 31, 2004 and through September 30, 2004, there were no disagreements with E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of E&Y would have caused them to make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such years.  In addition, there were no such disagreements between September 30, 2004 and October 5, 2004, the date the engagement of E&Y was terminated.

During the two years ended March 31, 2004 and from April 1, 2004 through October 7, 2004, there were no “reportable events” as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; however, the Company has been advised by E&Y that there was a lack of adequate controls related to the Company’s financial statement close process that led to an excessive length of time by the Company to close its books and issue its consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2004, which was determined to be a reportable condition under the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

Management has reported to the Company’s Audit Committee that this matter is not believed to be a material weakness in the Company’s internal controls.  The Company believes that the delays were largely the result of the Company’s divestiture of its other subsidiaries and related restructuring during 2003, as well as its transition to a new chief accounting officer, who previously served only as the controller of the Iteris Subsidiary.  Management has addressed this matter by instituting more formal closing procedures and has recruited a financial reporting manager to supplement its accounting staff.

The disclosures regarding the change in accountants set forth above were included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 12, 2004, as amended on November 12, 2004.  The Company had requested that E&Y furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether E&Y agrees with the above statements.  E&Y furnished such a letter, dated October 12, 2004, and another letter dated November 12, 2004, copies of which were included as exhibits to the Company’s Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A filings on October 12, 2004 and November 12, 2004.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Agreements and Change of Control Arrangements

In May 2003, the Company entered into change in control agreements with each of Gregory Miner and Jack Johnson.  In the event of an involuntary termination of the officer’s employment within three months prior to or twenty-four months after a change in control, the agreements provide for a severance payment to such officer of 200% of such officer’s annual base pay plus target bonus for the current fiscal year.  In addition, such officer and his dependents are entitled to all insurance benefits for up to twenty-four months or until such officer obtains new employment with comparable benefits, whichever is earlier.  Upon the merger of the Iteris Subsidiary into the Company in October 2004, Mr. Johnson, the Chief Executive Officer of the Iteris Subsidiary, assumed the role of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, replacing Mr. Miner.  The merger and subsequent change in position triggered the payment of severance to Mr. Miner under the terms of his agreement.

Iteris does not currently have any employment contracts in effect with any of its Named Executive Officers other than the change in control agreements with Messrs. Johnson and Miner as described above.  Iteris provides incentives such as salary, benefits and option grants to attract and retain executive officers and other key associates.  The Compensation Committee, as Plan Administrator of the 1997 Plan, has the authority to provide for the accelerated vesting of outstanding options held by an individual, in connection with the termination of such individual’s employment following an acquisition in which these options are assumed or the repurchase rights with respect to the unvested shares are assigned or upon certain hostile changes in control of Iteris.  Other than such accelerated vesting and the agreements described above, there is no agreement or policy which would entitle any executive officer to severance payments or any other compensation as a result of such officer’s termination. 

23

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, Iteris can indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).  The certificate of incorporation and the bylaws of Iteris provides that Iteris will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the bylaws require Iteris to advance litigation expenses upon receipt by Iteris of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the director or officer is not entitled to indemnification.  The bylaws further provide that rights conferred under such bylaws do not exclude any other right such persons may have or acquire under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Iteris’ certificate of incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the directors’ fiduciary duty of care to Iteris and its stockholders.  This provision in the certificate of incorporation does not eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law.  In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to Iteris or its stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law.  The provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

Iteris has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers in addition to the indemnification provided for in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws.  These agreements, among other things, indemnify Iteris’ directors and certain of its officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Iteris, on account of services as a director or officer of Iteris, or as a director or officer of any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of Iteris.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

The members of the Compensation Committee of Iteris’ Board of Directors during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 were Messrs. Daly, Seazholtz and Thomas.  None of these individuals was an officer or employee of Iteris or its subsidiaries at any time during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005. 

No executive officer of Iteris has served on the Board of Directors or on the compensation committee of any other entity that has, or has had, one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board of Directors or on the Compensation Committee of Iteris.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This report covers the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.  The Compensation Committee for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 was comprised of three outside directors, Messrs. Daly, Seazholtz and Thomas.  The Compensation Committee recommends the general compensation levels for executives.  The Compensation Committee meets periodically to review and recommend for approval by the Board of Directors, the salaries, bonuses and benefit plans for officers and key associates.  During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the Compensation Committee held one meeting.

General Compensation Policy

The guiding principle of the Compensation Committee is to establish a compensation program that aligns executive compensation with the Company’s objectives and business strategies as well as with financial and operational performance.  In keeping with this principle the Compensation Committee seeks to:

(1)           Attract and retain qualified senior executives who can play a significant role in the achievement of the Company’s goals;

(2)           Reward executives for strategic management and the long-term enhancement of stockholder value; and

(3)           Create a performance-oriented environment that rewards performance with respect to the financial and operational goals of Iteris.

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the annual compensation for the executive officers included base salaries and cash bonuses.

The Company establishes salaries for the officers by considering the salaries of officers at comparably sized companies according to data obtained by the Compensation Committee from executive compensation consultants and from other independent outside sources, including the American Electronics Association annual survey of executive compensation.

A substantial portion of the compensation of executive officers has historically been based upon the award of stock options which rely on increases in the value of the Company’s securities.  The award of options is intended to encourage executives to establish a meaningful, long-term ownership interest in the Company consistent with the interests of Iteris’ stockholders.  Under Iteris’ stock option plans, options are granted from time to time to certain officers and key associates of the Company and its subsidiaries at the fair market value of the shares of common stock at the time of grant.  Because the compensation element of options is dependent on increases over time in the market value of such shares, stock options represent compensation that is tied to the Company’s long-term performance.  The award of stock options to the executive officers of the Company is determined based upon individual performance, level of base salary and position with the Company.

The Compensation Committee has reviewed the base salaries for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 of each of the executive officers and is of the opinion that such salaries are not unreasonable in view of those paid by the Company’s competitors and by other companies of similar size.

CEO Compensation

In setting the total compensation payable to Jack Johnson, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, the Compensation Committee sought to make such compensation competitive with that provided by other companies with which the Company competes for executive talent.

With respect to the base salary of Mr. Johnson, it was the Compensation Committee’s intent to provide him with a level of stability and certainty each year.  The Compensation Committee believes the base salary of

25

Mr. Johnson for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 is at a competitive level with the base salaries in effect for similarly situated chief executive officers.  The remaining components of Mr. Johnson’s compensation for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, however, were primarily dependent upon corporate performance.  Based upon such performance, among other factors, a bonus to Mr. Johnson of $26,152 was approved for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.  No options were granted to him for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005.

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to publicly held corporations for compensation exceeding $1.0 million paid to certain of the corporation’s executive officers.  The limitation applies only to compensation which is not considered to be performance-based.  The nonperformance based compensation to be paid to the Company’s executive officers for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 did not exceed the $1.0 million limit per officer, nor is it expected that the nonperformance based compensation to be paid to the Company’s executive officers for the next fiscal year will exceed that limit.  The Company’s 1997 Stock Incentive Plan is structured so that any compensation deemed paid to an executive officer in connection with the exercise of option grants made under that plan will qualify as performance-based compensation which will not be subject to the $1.0 million limitation.  Because it is very unlikely that the cash compensation payable to any of the Company’s executive officers in the foreseeable future will approach the $1.0 million limit, the Compensation Committee has decided at this time not to take any other action to limit or restructure the elements of cash compensation payable to the executive officers.  The Compensation Committee will reconsider this decision should the individual compensation of any executive officer ever approach the $1.0 million level.

In June 2004, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with certain of the holders of the common stock of the Iteris Subsidiary, including Messrs. Daly, Miner, Mohaddes and Slutzky, pursuant to which such holders agreed to exchange an aggregate of 1,319,541 shares of the Iteris Subsidiary common stock for an aggregate of 2,639,082 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The exchange of shares was part of a plan were part of a plan of reorganization to consolidate and merge the Iteris Subsidiary into the Company, pursuant to which all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Iteris Subsidiary converted into shares of the Company’s common stock.

In October 2004, the Company completed the merger of the Iteris Subsidiary into the Company.  Pursuant to such merger, all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Iteris Subsidiary and all of the outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Iteris Subsidiary, including the shares and options held by Messrs. Hernandez, Johnson, McKhann, Memole, Miele and Rowe and certain warrants held by Bryant Riley and persons affiliated with B. Riley & Co., Inc., converted into shares of the Company’s common stock and options and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, all at a two-for-one ratio.  1,228,981 shares of common stock of the Iteris Subsidiary were converted into 2,457,962 shares of the Company’s common stock and options and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,019,778 shares and 327,359 shares, respectively, of the Iteris Subsidiary common stock were converted into options and warrants to purchase 6,039,556 shares and 654,718 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock.
