Item 1.01.
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On August 7, 2006, the Management Development, Compensation and Stock Option Committee (the “Management Development Committee”) of Perceptron, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company took the following actions relating to director compensation:

Director Compensation Matters

The form and amount of compensation paid to the Company’s non-employee directors is reviewed from time to time by the Management Development Committee. The Company’s standard director cash compensation arrangements have consisted of an annual cash retainer and per meeting fees for attending each Board meeting. In considering the various components of the non-employee directors’ cash compensation, the Management Development Committee recommended to the Board that director cash compensation consist of separate annual cash retainers for serving on the Board and on each committee on which a director serves, and an annual cash retainer for serving as a committee chair or as lead director. On August 7, 2006, upon the recommendation of the Management Development Committee, the Board approved the following compensation arrangement for non-management Directors, effective as of September 1, 2006:

A. Annual Cash Compensation

 
1.
Continuation without change of Annual Cash Retainer of $20,000, payable in quarterly installments of $5,000.

 
2.
Annual Committee Retainer of $3,000 for service on each committee, payable in quarterly installments of $750.

 
3.
Annual Committee Chair Retainer (other than Audit Committee) of $5,000, payable in quarterly installments of $1,250, to be paid in lieu of Annual Committee Retainer.

 
4.
Annual Audit Committee Retainer of $8,000, payable in quarterly installments of $2,000, to be paid in lieu of Annual Committee Retainer.

 
5.
Annual Lead Director Retainer of $5,000, payable in quarterly installments of $1,250, to be paid in addition to any other retainer.

 
6.
Directors are also reimbursed out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board of Directors or any committee on which a director is a member.
