ITEM 5.02 | DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS. |
On May 9, 2007, the Board of Directors appointed James T. Crane, Dominic Bohnett and Chris Cuttenden as directors of Commerce Planet, Inc. These directors filled vacancies created by the expansion of the Board from three to five members and the resignation of David Foucar from our Board. Mr. Foucar will continue to serve as our Chief Financial Officer. We intend for the new board members to serve until their successors are duly nominated and elected.
The Board has determined that Messrs. Crane, Bohnett and Cuttenden are “independent” under the definition established by NASDAQ and that Mr. Crane qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the rules of the Securities Exchange Commission.
Mr. Foucar resigned as a member of our Board of Directors effective May 9, 2007. Mr. Foucar’s resignation was part of our plan to create a more independent board. Mr. Foucar is not considered independent due to his position as our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Foucar will continue to serve as our Chief Financial Officer and we appreciate the contributions he has made to our Board.
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We generally use words such as “believe,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in our Form 10-KSB and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made, and our future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements may not meet these expectations. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this document to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.
