ITEM 5.02   DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.
     Servidyne, Inc. (the “Company”) recently eliminated the position of Chief Executive Officer of the Company’s subsidiary, Abrams Properties, Inc. The primary responsibility of this position was the executive management of the Company’s Real Estate Segment.
     In recent years the Company disposed of the vast majority of its real estate holdings, and redeployed a substantial portion of the proceeds to establish and grow the Company’s Building Performance Efficiency Segment. The Company sold its last owned income-producing property, other than its corporate headquarters facility, in December 2010. Consequently, the Company no longer needs a full-time executive to manage real estate operations.
     As a result of this change, Ms. Melinda S. Garrett, previously Chief Executive Officer and President of Abrams Properties, Inc. and Vice President and Secretary of the Company, was separated from employment with the Company, effective as of February 1, 2011. The Company has offered Ms. Garrett, who joined the Company in 1989, approximately 30 weeks of severance pay at a rate equivalent to her most recent salary, in accordance with the Company’s severance policy. It is also anticipated that Ms. Garrett will enter into a part-time, non-executive consulting arrangement with the Company to facilitate the transition of her responsibilities and the orderly wind down of the Company’s real estate operations. In conjunction with this change, Mr. Alan R. Abrams, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, is assuming the role of President of Abrams Properties, Inc.
