BOARD OF DIRECTORS
COMMITTEES OF THE COMPANY’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Because the Company’s board of directors currently consists of only two members, we do not have a standing nominating, compensation or audit committee. Rather, the board of directors performs the functions of these committees. Also, the Company does not have an audit committee financial expert on the board of directors as that term is defined by Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K, under the Exchange Act. Our board of directors is in the process of searching for a suitable candidate for this position.
We do not believe it is necessary for the board of directors to appoint such committees, because the volume of matters that come before the board of directors for consideration is sufficiently small so as to permit our two directors to give sufficient time and attention to such matters. Additionally, because the Company’s Common Stock is not listed for trading or quotation on a national securities exchange, we are not required to have such committees. Because our two current directors are also shareholders of the Company, and because one of them also is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, neither of our directors is independent. However, under the SPA, within 120 days of the closing of the Private Placement the Company is obligated to install an independent board of directors.
In considering candidates for membership on the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors will take into consideration the needs of the Board of Directors and the candidate’s qualifications. The Board will request such information as:
| · | The name and address of the proposed candidate; |
| · | The proposed candidate’s resume or a listing of his or her qualification to be director of the Company; |
| · | A description of any relationship that could affect such person qualifying as an independent director, including identifying all other public company board and committee memberships; |
| · | A confirmation of such person’s willingness to act as director if selected by the Board of Directors; and |
| · | Any information about the proposed candidate that would, under the federal proxy rules, be required to be included in the Company’s proxy statement if such person were a nominee. |
Once a person has been identified by the Board of Directors as a potential candidate, the Board of Directors may collect and review publicly available information regarding the person to assess whether the person should be considered further. Generally, if the person expresses a willingness to be considered and to serve on the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors believes that the candidate has the potential to be a good candidate, the Board of Directors would seek to gather information from or about the candidate, including through one or more interviews as appropriate and review his or her accomplishments and qualifications generally, including in light of any other candidates that the Board of Directors may be considering. The Board of Directors’ evaluation process does not vary based on whether the candidate is recommended by a shareholder.
The Board of Directors will, from time to time, seek to identify potential candidates for director nominees and will consider potential candidates proposed by the Board of Directors and by management of the Company.
MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, the board of directors of the Company did not act by written consent. Since we had only one director, no meetings were conducted. The Company does not have a policy on director attendance, but plans to adopt one when the size of the Board and the scope of the Company’s activities justify it.
STOCKHOLDER COMMUNICATION WITH THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Stockholders may send communications to our Board of Directors by writing to: Mondial Ventures, Inc. 388 Richmond St. W. Suite 916, Toronto, ON, Attn: Board of Directors.
Director Independence
Presently we are not required to comply with the director independence requirements of any securities exchange.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities, to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of the Company’s securities with the SEC of Forms 3, 4 and 5. Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of the forms received by it during the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, and written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that no person who, at any time during such fiscal year, was a director, officer or beneficial owner of more than 10% of the Company’s common stock failed to comply with all Section 16(a) filing requirements during such fiscal year.
