Shelton, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Laura C. Baldwin, Director of Finance and Investor Relations, will lead Triad’s investor relations activities. Mr. Love and Ms. Baldwin will report to Mr. Shelton during Mr. Whitman’s absence. The duties of Triad’s other officers will remain unchanged.

During Mr. Whitman’s absence, Triad will pay Mr. Whitman his full salary, less his military “base pay.”
