Another director whose term was up for re-election, Jackson Nickerson, informed the Company that he wished not to be nominated for another term for personal reasons. In accordance with Mr. Nickerson’s preference, he was not nominated and therefore was not re-elected as a member of the Board of Directors.

Following the Annual Shareholder Meeting, the Company held a Board of Directors meeting at which the following officers were re-elected: Ed Hennessey as President and CEO, Tom Jennewein as CFO and Treasurer, and Paul Simon, Jr. as Corporate Secretary.
