5.02 Departure
of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of
Principal Officers
(d) Election
of a New Director
On
July
12, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Registrant filled one vacancy on the
Board with the election of Barry M. Goldwater, Jr. Mr. Goldwater will serve
as a
director until the next Annual General Meeting of the Registrant’s shareholders.
It is anticipated that Mr. Goldwater will sit on one or more of the Registrant’s
Board Committees.
With
wit,
experiences, and candor rivaling the best personalities and an appreciation
for
the need to balance the daily travails of life with humor, Barry M. Goldwater,
Jr. offers a blend of knowledge that can make a significant contribution.
The
Goldwaters' are legendary in Arizona. Barry's great-grandfather, Mike Goldwater,
emigrated from Poland to the United States in the 1840s, landing in San
Francisco. In 1850 he began a mercantile business traveling by wagon throughout
mining camps in California, Nevada, and Arizona. He settled that year in
Prescott, Arizona, where he opened his first dry goods store, which through
the
efforts of his sons Baron and Morris and grandsons, Bob and Barry, would expand
into a tremendously successful clothing business. Like his father before him,
Barry, Jr. worked in the family business, planning to accede to management.
However, about the time he graduated from Arizona State University with a
bachelor of science in marketing and management, the stores were sold, leaving
Barry with a decision to make about his future.
Barry
moved to Los Angeles and became a stockbroker, and eventually a partner, in
the
Los Angeles securities firm of Noble Cook, Inc. (now Wedbush Securities), where
he developed an institutional customer base and traded securities on all stock
exchanges. It was here he developed his selling skills and eventually landing
some of the country's largest financial banks and insurance companies as
clients. He also became knowledgeable in financial planning, securities law,
and
underwriting.
The
year
1964 found Barry, Jr. crisscrossing the country campaigning for his father,
Senator Barry Goldwater, to become President of the United States. The outcome
of that effort is well known, but its impact on Barry is not. It set the pattern
of public service that he would soon undertake.
Already
involved in local civic activities such as the Boys Club, Big Brothers, the
Boy
Scouts of America, and the president of a local Lions Club, Barry at the age
of
30 ran for Congress and won. He not only won that election but seven more,
serving 14 years in Washington, D.C., representing half a million constituents
of northern Los Angeles County. He and his father were unique, representing
one
of the few instances in U.S. history when both father and son were serving
in
Congress at the same time.
Barry's
14 years in Washington (1969-1984) left an imprint on him and on the nation.
He
served on a number of committees, including Committee on Science and Technology,
Committee on Public Works and Transportation, and the Joint Committee on Energy.
His areas of expertise included energy, the space program, aviation and defense,
and government procurement. He was on the committee that reviewed the disaster
involving the space shuttle "Challenger”. Barry authored and saw the Privacy Act
of 1974 signed into law. He served on the privacy Commission that looked into
privacy issues affecting the private and corporate sectors. This issue remains
a
matter of his concern as we move into a global electronic network and
information systems. He was very instrumental in all facets of energy policy
and
research and development including authoring the Solar Photovoltaic Act. He
has
also been involved with organizations as diverse as the National Aeronautic
Association, the National Wildlife Federation, and the Veterans of Foreign
Wars
of the United States. He is a Life Member of the American Numismatic
Association. He is also looked upon as an expert concerning transportation
matters.

Congressman
Barry Goldwater, Jr. retired from politics in 1983 and in1984 entered business
in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, New York and Phoenix where he currently lives
with his wife Sylvia Goldwater and near his son Barry M. Goldwater III. For
the
past 23 years Barry has held responsible positions involving finance and
management, including eight years as a member of the New York Stock Exchange.
He
has used his government experience and knowledge like a knife to pry open and
get to the heart of a problem effecting business impacted by regulation or
law.
His love of business is only surpassed by his humanitarian interests which
have
landed him awards such as the Leadership Award from the President's Commission
on Employment of the Handicapped and an Achievement Award from the National
Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. His business career has not diminished
his compassion for the people and his commitment to making this a better and
safer world in which we live.
