Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
On March 29, 2018, one of our Directors, Patrick V. Dolan, submitted his resignation from his Directorship on the Company’s Board of Directors, citing personal reasons. Our management is not aware of any disagreement between Mr. Dolan and the Company. Our Board of Directors has left the door open to Mr. Dolan to provide future services to the Company on a commission basis for deals he brings to the Company, when the Company pursues and closes on such transactions. A copy of Mr. Dolan’s letter of resignation is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 17.
Our Board of Directors has provided Mr. Dolan with a copy of this Form 8-K prior to filing same with the SEC and has given Mr. Dolan an opportunity to furnish the Company as promptly as possible with a letter addressed to the Company stating whether he agrees with the statements made by the Company in response to Item 5.02 and, if not, stating the respects in which he does not agree. Mr. Dolan has provided the Company with a letter stating that he agrees with the disclosures in this Item 5.02 with respect to his resignation from the Board of Directors.
The Company has not appointed or elected a replacement for Mr. Dolan, so the Company will proceed with only two Directors, Patrick Smith and Enzo Taddei, until a successor Director is appointed or elected.
