Concern surrounding the Company’s patents was put to rest. The core business will continue to be managed by Dr. Andrew Kim (CTO), John Mitchell (CMO), Charito Alcantara (VP, Ops), and Ebrahim Abunasrah (VP, Data Center). The process of finding a new CEO is ongoing, and the Board is confident in finding the right candidate. We would expect an announcement on the new CEO within the next 60 to 90 days.”
