Corporate Governance
Board Composition
The Company’s bylaws provide that the Board shall consist of one or more members. Each director of the Company serves for a term of one year or until the successor is elected at the Company’s annual stockholders’ meeting and is qualified, subject to removal by the Company’s stockholders. Each officer serves, at the pleasure of the Board, for a term of one year and until the successor is elected at the annual meeting of the Board and is qualified.
Board Leadership Structure
The Company has chosen to combine the principal executive officer and Board chairman positions. The Company believes that this Board leadership structure is the most appropriate for the Company. The Company is a development stage company with few employees and at this early stage it is more efficient to have the leadership of the Board in the same hands as the principal executive officer of the Company. The challenges faced by the Company at this stage – obtaining financing and developing the Company’s business – are most efficiently dealt with by one person who is familiar with both the operational aspects as well as the strategic aspects of the Company’s business.
Committees of the Board; Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Board currently has an audit committee consisting solely of Robert Galecke. The Board is currently considering what other directors to add the audit committee. The SEC has adopted rules to implement certain requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pertaining to audit committees. One of the rules adopted by the SEC requires a company to disclose whether it has an “audit committee financial expert” serving on its audit committee. Based on its review of the criteria of an audit committee financial expert under the rules adopted by the SEC, the Board determined that Mr. Galecke is an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined in Item 401(e) of Regulation S-B promulgated by the SEC. Mr. Galecke is “independent,” as that term is used in Item 7(a)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
The Company is not aware of any conflicts of interest with any of the Company’s executive officers or directors.
Director Independence
Robert Galecke, Todd Ordal and Bradford Morgan are independent directors based on the New York Stock Exchange definition of independence.
Board’s Role in Risk Oversight
The Board assesses on an ongoing basis the risks faced by the Company. These risks include financial, technological, competitive, and operational risks. The Board dedicates time at each of its meetings to review and consider the relevant risks faced by the Company at that time.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
There have been no events under any bankruptcy act, no criminal proceedings and no judgments, injunctions, orders or decrees material to the evaluation of the ability and integrity of any director or executive officer of the Company during the past 10 years.
The Company is not aware of any material proceedings in which any of its directors, executive officers, affiliates, stockholders of record or beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Common Stock, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
