Election of Director

On March 21, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with SGT Merger Corporation, a Nevada corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary, SG Technologies Corp, a Nevada corporation (“SGT”), Sterling C. Scott, and W-Net Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Investor Representative”). The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement occurred on April 5, 2012. In connection with the Closing, on April 5, 2012, we entered into a voting agreement with SGT’s former stockholders, the Investor Representative and Europa International Inc., a Delaware corporation, pursuant to which, among other things, such stockholders agreed to vote the shares of our capital stock held by such stockholders to elect to our Board of Directors (the “Board”) two persons designated by the Investor Representative (the “Investor Directors”), which persons were initially Craig Ellins, with one seat remaining vacant. On April 1, 2013, the Investor Representative designated, and the Board elected, Eric D. Shevin to the Board as the second Investor Director.

Eric D. Shevin, Esq. (age 48) is a nationally recognized attorney, author and teacher specializing in matters related to marijuana including corporate, civil and criminal engagements across the United States. Mr. Shevin’s practice is based in Los Angeles, California where he is an instructor for the Los Angeles County Judiciary, teaching a course on medical marijuana laws.

He obtained his Juris Doctor from the University of San Diego in 1992 followed by a judicial clerkship with the Honorable Judge Bernard Revak of the San Diego Superior Court. Mr. Shevin obtained a Bachelors of Science degree from San Diego State University in 1989. Mr. Shevin has been recognized as a Southern California Super Lawyer for 2004, 2005, 2009 and 2012 and is a lifetime member of the Legal Committee for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws.

Mr. Shevin does not have any family relationships with any of our other directors or executive officers. Mr. Shevin does not have a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction with our Company involving an amount exceeding $120,000, and no such transaction is currently proposed.
