Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

As previously disclosed in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on January 8 and March 26, 2007, Patrick Farrell, who relocated from the Boston area to the New York City area for personal reasons earlier this year, has been serving as President of iParty Corp. under an employment agreement with us which expires on November 15, 2007.

At a regularly-scheduled meeting of our Board of Directors on September 26, 2007, the Board determined not to take any action to extend or renew Mr. Farrell’s employment agreement upon its expiration.  Accordingly, Mr. Farrell’s term as President of iParty will expire on November 15, 2007.  We currently expect the office of President to remain vacant for an indeterminate period thereafter, during which time Mr. Farrell’s prior responsibilities will be divided between our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Sal Perisano, and our Chief Financial Officer, David Robertson.

Mr. Farrell holds vested options to purchase an aggregate of 970,087 shares of our common stock.  Under the terms of the option plan and agreements, these options would have expired on February 15, 2008, three months from the termination of Mr. Farrell’s employment on November 15, 2007.  However, at the September 26 meeting, the Board, with the approval and upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, voted to extend the expiration date of Mr. Farrell’s options for an additional six months, to August 15, 2008.
