Biographical Information for Richard Battaglini

Mr. Battaglini has spent a total of 15 years working in the areas of Automotive Dealership Sales and Management. He has extensive experience as an Automotive Aftermarket Parts innovator and supplier. He began his automotive sales career by serving as a salesperson in Albuquerque, NM for Group 1 Automotive, a publicly traded conglomerate. After spending 3 years and winning several awards, Mr. Battaglini moved to a private dealership group to pursue an advancement into finance and insurance where he was responsible for securing financing for customers and funding from banks for the group. He then made the natural progression into Dealership Management where he was responsible for scheduling and managing a sales team consisting of more than 35 sales people. In this role he was responsible for Inventory Management and the Customer Retention Program Development. He has held every position on the variable side of a dealership, except for General Manager.

In 2005, Mr. Battaglini left the retail side of the automotive industry and pursued a new strategy. It was then that he invented a safety product for cars that is currently being sold under several brand names such as Pulse, BrakeSafe, BrakeTek and BrakePlus.  It has been proven by the NHTSA that when consumers have this installed in their vehicle, it reduced their chances of being involved in a rear-end collision by over 40%. This product was sold to the automotive dealership market as an aftermarket product to be front loaded on the new and used cars. With Mr. Battaglini's direction, this product is available in hundreds of dealerships nationwide and in 2012, it was voted one of the top 30 Automotive Technology products in the US by Automotive News and Autobytel.

Selling his interest in this venture in late 2012 allowed Mr. Battaglini the opportunity to pursue another venture: LotWatch and ServiceWatch, products having a focus on Dealership Inventory Management and Real-time Customer Service Retention.

Since 2002 Mr. Wilson has been actively involved with all facets of corporate financial and operational planning and has held the title of CFO and CEO for several different firms.    Mr. Wilson has also consulted for various finance departments of publicly traded companies such as JDA Software and Switch & Data, Inc. to help them identify and develop best SOX and GAAP practices and procedures. 

In 2011 Mr. Wilson took over as CFO of United Petroleum Company and helped guide them from a small startup with less than $1 million in revenue to a company with $20 million in revenue and a growth path for 2013 and 2014.

Mr. Wilson holds a BA degree in Management and holds an MBA from Northcentral University.​

In connection with the consummation of the SPA, there was an understanding between the former management of the Company and Richard Battaglini, the purchaser under the SPA, that Mr. Battaglini would be appointed as a director and an officer of the Company immediately after the change of control was effected.
