On October 14, 2011 our Board of Directors appointed Patrick Brown to serve as CEO, President and a member of the Board of Directors. Over the past two decades, Mr. Brown has cultivated a wealth of knowledge and expertise as an executive and financial consultant for international clean-energy innovators in the U.S. and abroad. In addition to his work assessing the prospects and feasibility of clean-energy projects, Mr. Brown is highly experienced in securing financing for new technologies from government and venture capital sources. Prior to joining Rainbow Coral Corporation, Mr. Brown was the President of West Coast Financial Services, Ltd. which provided boutique CFO consulting services for private and pre-listed public companies. From 2009 – 2011, he worked for MNP, LLP where he maintained a client base in entertainment, renewable energy and emerging markets. From 2005 to 2009, he worked for RSM Richter, LLP where he branded the firm’s emerging markets and renewable energy practice specialty. Mr. Brown has served as President and CEO of On the Move Systems Corp. since September 12, 2011. He will remain in that position. He is a Canadian Chartered Accountant, and holds a diploma from the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Financial Management with an option in Taxation.
Mr. Brown will be compensated $5,500 per month for his services. He is not covered under an employment agreement and does not own any shares of our stock.
Additionally, on October 14, 2011 Mr. Louis Foxwell resigned as our CEO, President and Director. He will remain as the President of our Father Fish subsidiary and will continue to manage that segment of our business. Mr. Foxwell’s resignation was not the result of a disagreement with the Company.
