Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On February 10, 2016, the board of directors (the “Board”) of Latitude 360, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed John C. Maher and Susan Kurland to the Board, replacing John Alexon and Gregory Garson, each of whom resigned effective as of that date. Neither Mr. Alexon’s nor Mr. Garson’s resignation was the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company. The reconstituted Board intends to embark on a restructuring plan for the Company, to seek to substantially reduce the Company’s overhead costs to be more in line with the Company’s projected revenues.

 

Mr. Maher is currently Executive Vice President of Global Workplace Solutions Brokerage for CBRE Group, Inc. (“CBRE”), responsible for the growth of CBRE’s brokerage business with corporate clients headquartered in the East. From 1994 to 2003, Mr. Maher was a senior executive with Trammell Crow Company, which was acquired by CBRE in 2006. Prior to re-joining CBRE in 2007, Mr. Maher served as Executive Vice President of Colliers International. Mr. Maher is a graduate of University of Akron, where he serves as an Executive Advisory Board member. He also serves as a member of the Board of Directors of the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals (IAOP).

 

Ms. Kurland is currently an Executive Vice President with the New York Tri-State Region Retail Services Group of CBRE.  Prior to joining CBRE, Ms. Kurland was the Executive Director of Retail Brokerage Services with Cushman & Wakefield’s New York office, where she had been since 1998. Ms. Kurland’s real estate experience has included representing many high-profile retailers in locating suitable premises, including Camper, Chopard, American Girl/Mattel, H&M and REI. Ms. Kurland has won numerous awards, including being recognized nationally as the #1 CBRE retail broker in 2008. Ms. Kurland also serves on the International Council of Shopping Centers and the Real Estate Board of New York.

 

Also on February 10, 2016, Mr. Garson resigned as President of the Company. Mr. Garson has offered to continue to assist the Company on a consulting basis going forward, terms of which consulting arrangement would be subject to mutual agreement of Mr. Garson and the Company (through the Board).
