Section 5 - Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers;
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Effective July 6, 2010, Bruce Shepard resigned from his positions as Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and Treasurer of Las Vegas Gaming, Inc. The resignations were in conjunction with his request for approval to withdraw his application for licensure from the Nevada Gaming Commission as a cost reduction measure as Las Vegas Gaming, Inc. could no longer afford the cash deposits needed to continue with the investigation and the licensing process. No issues were identified as preventing the licensure of Mr. Shepard. In addition, the resignation by Mr. Shepard was not due to any known disagreement on any matter relating to the company’s operations, policies, or practices. Russell Roth, the company’s Chairman of the Board, was named to fill those positions with Mr. Shepard assuming the duties of the company’s Controller on that same date. Russell Roth and Jon Berkley, the company’s Chief Executive Officer, are already licensed by the Nevada Gaming Commission.
Effective July, 12, 2010, Richard Irvine resigned as a member of the company’s Board of Directors. The resignation by Mr. Irvine was not due to any known disagreement on any matter relating to the company’s operations, policies, or practices.
