Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors;
Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Chad Summers, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, has been
appointed to the Jewett-Cameron Board of Directors.
Chad originally joined the Company in October 2019. He was appointed President
in May 2021 and CEO in January 2022. His prior experience includes participation
in start-up ventures in both product and service industries and has a strong
background in leadership, consulting, and support. He co-owned and led an
international lumber brokering business similar to Jewett-Cameron's Greenwood
division. This experience provided him the opportunity to oversee and actively
manage suppliers in China and throughout SE Asia. He also built a successful
consulting practice dedicated to growing manufacturers in association with a
west coast regional accounting firm which allowed him the opportunity to
establish a deep network of manufacturers, professional services and support
connections regionally.
Mr. Summers is not considered an "Independent" Director due to his position as
an Officer of the Company. With his appointment, the Board now consists of seven
Directors, including four Independent Directors. He will stand for election as a
Director at the next General Meeting of shareholders which is expected to be
held in early calendar 2023.
