ITEM 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On August 22, 2016 the Board of Directors appointed Mr. Jens Mielke, age 50, to fill the position of Chief Financial Officer. He replaces Mr. Michael Welch, who was appointed Chief Financial Officer on January 1, 2016, then appointed President and Chief Executive Officer on March 1, 2016, and named Interim Chief Financial Officer at the same time. Mr. Welch will continue to serve as our President and Chief Executive Officer.
Prior to joining Rocky Mountain High Brands, Mr. Mielke was National Partner, Technical Accounting for Aventine Hill Partners, a Texas-based professional services firm. Mr. Mielke founded and led that firm’s Technical Accounting Group where he provided technical accounting and finance services to public and private clients. Immediately prior to Aventine Hill, Mr. Mielke was Chief Financial Officer for a high-growth, publicly-traded retailer. He spent the majority of his career at Deloitte where he was audit partner in the firm’s Dallas office. He also previously served as senior financial analyst at PepsiCo’s corporate headquarters. His experience includes working with public and private companies in strategic management, accounting, SEC reporting, investor relations, initial and secondary public offerings, mergers, acquisitions and divestitures, process improvement, systems implementations and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.
Mr. Mielke received his Master and Bachelor of Business Administration degrees from Southern Methodist University. He has been a Certified Public Accountant in the State of Texas since 1991. He currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Dallas Chapter of Financial Executives International.
Our newly-appointed Chief Financial Officer has not had any material direct or indirect interest in any of our transactions or proposed transactions over the last two years. We have agreed to compensate Mr. Mielke at a salary of $120,000 per year, and to issue certain warrants as additional compensation, the specifics of which are not finalized at this time. We expect to conclude a formal written employment agreement with Mr. Mielke in the near future.
