Appointment of Director
On October 25, 2018, Michael T. Birch was appointed to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of ZAGG Inc (the “Company”), to fill the vacancy created by the recent resignation of E. Todd Heiner, to serve until the Company’s 2019 annual meeting of stockholders or until his successor is elected and qualified. In addition, Mr. Birch will serve as a member of the Board’s Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance Committees.
Mr. Birch is currently the Chief Executive Officer of Action Target Inc. Previously, he was a Vice President and General Manager at Boart Longyear, the world’s largest mineral exploration drilling company. While at Boart Longyear, Mr. Birch was responsible for the company’s core business which included $1.5 billion in revenue, more than 8,000 employees, and 1,200 drilling rigs operating in 40 countries. He was also a member of an executive team responsible for the $2.3 billion IPO of Boart Longyear on the Australian Stock Exchange. Mr. Birch began his career at Black & Decker where he worked in various sales and marketing leadership positions, culminating in his assignment as a General Manager over Baldwin Hardware. While at Black & Decker, he was also a part of a leadership team that launched the DeWalt Industrial Power Tool brand in the U.S. and Europe. Mr. Birch holds a B.S. in Business Management from Brigham Young University.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Birch and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Birch was elected to serve as a director. Mr. Birch does not have a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction with the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
