David Polonitza

Mr. Polonitza has been the Chief Operating Officer of AB Value Management LLC, an investment management firm, since 2011.  From 2002 to 2010, Mr. Polonitza served in the United States Army, attaining the rank of Captain. Mr. Polonitza has a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and an MBA from the University of Louisville.

David Polonitza commented:

"Instead of addressing the issues raised during the 2010 Annual Meeting, and despite over 35% of shareholders voting against ITEX’s current set of Directors, the Board of Directors proceeded to engage in a series of transactions in what we believe was an attempt to entrench themselves. None of these actions, including issuing 400,000 shares to certain Directors and Employees, were executed with shareholder approval. We are seeking to replace ITEX’s two non-executive Directors, Eric T. Best (Chief Executive of Mercent Corporation) and John A. Wade (Director of Finance of Mercent Corporation), who compose ITEX’s compensation committee and approved these corporate actions.” 

Additionally, on September 8, 2011, Mr. Polonitza filed a lawsuit, derivatively on behalf of ITEX, against the existing directors of ITEX (Polonitza v. White (ITEX)). The lawsuit is pending in the Superior Court of Washington King County.
