Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On April 30, 2015, and in accordance with the terms of our employment agreement with Jace Simmons, pursuant to which Mr. Simmons served as our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Simmons and the Company agreed to seek a new CFO from the healthcare industry to serve as CFO. The Company thereupon announced that Jeffrey L. Wadman, the Company's Controller, would assume the role of interim Chief Financial Officer.
Mr. Wadman, 59, has a long experience as a senior finance executive, especially in the healthcare industry. Prior to joining Medytox in 2014, from 2008, he was the Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer of Oxbow Carbon LLC, a global group of companies with sales of $3.7 billion and 1,200 employees. From 2005 to 2008, he was the Vice President of Accounting and Global Controller of Stieffel Laboratories, Inc., at the time the world's largest privately-owned pharmaceutical company. Mr. Wadman served with Eli Lilly & Company for 16 years (1989 to 2005) in increasingly responsible positions, including as Chief Executive Officer of the Eli Lilly Federal Credit Union.
“We would like to thank Jace for all his contributions to Medytox and in helping us get to the strong position we are in today,” said Seamus Lagan, our Chief Executive Officer. "We also welcome Jeff as our interim CFO. His extensive healthcare and financial experience will help Medytox move to the next level and face the challenges of tomorrow."
