ITEM 5.02. DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

 

Appointment of Certain Officer

 

On February 1, 2017, our board of directors appointed Michael J. Warren as our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Mr. Warren is 64 years old. Mr. Warren obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of Missouri in 1975. Mr. Warren also graduated from the U.S. Marine Corps University in Quantico, Virginia in 1990, majoring in Strategic Planning and Operational Planning. Mr. Warren is, also, certified as a Counter Terrorism Planner, as a Counterinsurgency Expert and in numerous security and safety courses.

 

From July 2012 through January 2017, Mr. Warren served as the Regional Operations and Security Director for ECC International in Afghanistan. In that capacity, he supervised the security of 18 major Department of Defense Construction Projects, totaling $1,000,000,000, including a $500,000,000 Asia Development Bank road project building the Ring Road from Herat to Mazer-e-Sharif, and one $50,000,000 USAID Infrastructure Development project with the Afghan Ministry of Mines, Oil, and Gas. Prior to being the Regional Operations and Security Director for ECC, Mr. Warren was the Director of Operations, Security & Safety for Checchi & Company Consulting, Inc., in Afghanistan, where he focused on the Measurement and Evaluation Program under contract with USAID.

 

Mr. Warren has never been a director of a public company. Moreover, Mr. Warren has never been involved in any legal or regulatory proceedings during the last 10 years.

 

As Mr. Warren has an extensive background in project management and has served with numerous companies in the computer hardware and software industry, playing an integral role in the company’s growth and expansion, our board of directors has determined it is in our best interest to appoint Mr. Warren as our Chief Executive Officer.
