Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, 28,859 of the shares of the Registrant’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) owned by Mr. Sullivan immediately prior to the termination are deemed to have been returned to the Registrant’s treasury for cancellation effective as of January 16, 2019, without the requirement that either Mr. Sullivan or the Registrant take any further action. The remaining 28,859 shares of Series A Preferred Stock owned by Mr. Sullivan may not be sold or otherwise transferred by him until January 17, 2020. Following the termination of Mr. Sullivan, the Board of Directors of GeoTraq appointed Tony Isaac (the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer) as GeoTraq’s President and promoted Pierre Parent (GeoTraq’s Chief Technology Officer) to serve as Geotraq’s General Manager.
