INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT
Effective September 1, 2011, Mr. Robert J. Flynn resigned from the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and as non-executive Chairman of the Board and Audit Committee in order to pursue other business opportunities, including certain opportunities that may conflict with his continued service to the Company as a Board member. His resignation, which was a mutual decision between him and the Company, will allow him to take a more active role in the area of new business development and planning.
Mr. George Kassiotis, CEO of Omega, said "We wish to thank Mr. Flynn for all his hard work and effort while he was a member of our Board. Mr. Flynn has been a very valuable member of our Board since the time of our IPO. We look forward to spending more time with Mr. Flynn as we work together on future projects."
The Company's Board has appointed Mr. Nicolas Borkmann, a Class B Director since 2006, to serve as non-executive Chairman of the Board following Mr. Flynn's resignation. The Company's Board following Mr. Flynn's resignation will consist of five members, of which three are independent.
