Modern Mobility Aids, Inc. (MDRM) Announces the Appointment of Ken
Pinckard to CEO
TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - Apr 3, 2014) - Toronto based Nevada
firm Modern Mobility Aids Inc. (OTC Pink: MDRM) (PINKSHEETS: MDRM)
an emerging company operating in the field of governmentally
authorized medical marijuana and cannabis science is pleased to
announce the appointment of Ken Pinckard to the position of Chief
Executive Officer. Mr. Declan French will now assume the position
of Chairman.
For the past ten years, Mr. Pinckard has been Chief Financial
Officer and General Counsel for two public companies, responsible
for all financial, accounting, auditing, SEC compliance and legal
matters. Mr. Pinckard is a member of the State Bar of Arizona and
has extensive experience in real estate, corporate finance, startup
ventures, investments, entertainment, corporate acquisitions, tax
and reorganizations. He previously practiced law at Chamberlain
Hrdlicka White Johnson & Williams of Houston, Texas and also
served as a tax specialist at Coopers & Lybrand in both Houston
and Philadelphia. He also served as personal counsel to Congressman
Barry Goldwater and in-house legal counsel for Hormel Foods heir
and music composer, Geordie Hormel. Mr. Pinckard holds a B.B.A.,
Accounting from the University of Texas at Austin and a Juris
Doctorate from the University of Houston. Mr. Pinckard has
experience in the application process and implementation of
start-up marijuana licensing and production ventures, having
represented successful applicants for licenses to produce and
dispense medical marijuana under the recently enacted Arizona
law.
"The concept of MDRM and its initial implementation creates
fascinating and unique legal and regulatory challenges. The
formation of appropriate legal structures and securing regulatory
approval of Health Canada for modern and technologically advanced
cannabis research, production and distribution, is a significant
challenge for which MDRM executive team is well prepared. The
control, corporate governance, and compliance issues are complex. I
am confident that MDRM is well positioned to receive the required
approvals and achieve those objectives. MDRM will maintain the
highest standard of compliance and accountability to its customers,
shareholders and investors alike," stated Pinckard.
Mr. Declan French, Chairman of Modern Mobility Aids Inc.,
stated, "This is another exciting development for MDRM. Ken's
experience as a businessman and attorney coupled with his
experience with medical marijuana and a senior level executive in
two public companies confirms his executive level legal and
operational leadership. He is known for providing a pragmatic
approach balancing legal risk against business interests."
This announcement further exemplifies the company's commitment
to building a dynamic management team at Modern Mobility Aids
Inc.
