On Monday, the 13th day of November, the company accepted the resignation of Paul Muncy from the Chief Executive Officer position. Mr. Muncy served the company with exemplary discipline and fervor; however, the obligations of his currently held technology company that converted coal-to-liquids-fuels required an increasing amount of his attention.

Mr. Muncy steps down from this position with great respect and recognition from the executive staff and the Board of Directors. During such time following, and until a suitable replacement is decided upon, Mr. John Leufray, the corporation’s Chief Technology Officer (~~CTO~~Registrant) ~~shall serve the company as its Interim-CEO by appointment of the Board as of Wednesday, the 15th day of November 2017.~~
