Grober was appointed by the Board of Directors as the Treasurer/Chief Financial Officer of Homeland, to be effective on January 1, 2010.

As such, Mr. Grober’s position is exclusively with Homeland.

For the past six months, Mr. Grober, age 47, was the Plant Manager/CFO of a Kellogg Company plant located in Seelyville, Indiana. Prior to his employment with Kellogg Company, Mr. Grober worked for Brownie Products Co./Indybake Products, LLC in Seelyville, Indiana, from 1995 – 2009, where he most recently was the CFO for both companies for 11 years.
