This committee will also conduct an in-depth review of the Company's service providers and their contractual agreements as well as other corporate matters. This committee is comprised of Dominik Dolenec, Brendan Hawthorne and Brett Miller; and

 

2. liaise with the Investment Manager and act as a point of contact in respect of the Princeton proceedings and the strategic decisions associated with those proceedings. This committee is comprised of Jonathan Schneider and Gregory Share.

The re-constituted board aims to quickly and efficiently deliver on the shareholders' overwhelming desire to wind down the Company. Any final decisions regarding the approach to the investment portfolio and any other proposals to be put to shareholders will be decided by the board as a whole. Transparency, accountability and stakeholder engagement will be paramount, as the Company moves into the next phase. Further announcements will be made in due course.
