Engagement of Broadway Advisors and Appointment of Chief Reorganizing Officer

On October 10, 2014, pending final approval of the United Stated Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California (the “Court”), ISC8 Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter agreement with Broadway Advisors, LLC (“Broadway”), pursuant to which Broadway will provide interim management services to the Company during the pendency of the Company’s reorganization proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Broadway Agreement”). In addition, pursuant to the Broadway Agreement, the Company has appointed Mr. Alfred M. Masse, a principal of Broadway, to serve as the Company’s Chief Reorganizing Officer. Except as disclosed herein, there are no arrangements or understandings in connection with Mr. Masse’s appointment, and there are no further related party transactions between the Company and Mr. Masse that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. 

Mr. Masse has managed debtors, creditors and bank groups in both Chapter 11 and out-of-court restructurings for the past 15 years. Mr. Masse currently serves as Co-Chief Responsible Officer and Director of Olympia Group, Inc. DIP, a privately held imported and distributor of hand-tools and lawn and garden products for the consumer and professional markets. Prior to Olympia Group, Mr. Masse served as President of 5th and Sunset, a multi-national commercial photography studio and equipment rental company and as restructuring advisor to Trend Technologies, Inc., a $700 million global manufacturer of metal and plastic enclosures for the electronics and telecommunications industry. Prior to his work with Broadway, Mr. Masse was a founding member and Managing Director of Baymark Strategies, LLC, a financial advisory and turnaround firm started by former Coopers & Lybrand restructuring partners. During his five years at Baymark, his clients ranged in size from $10 million to $750 million and included Hard Candy and the California Restaurant Association where he served as interim Chief Executive Officer.
