Director Independence

 

B4MC is not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the Board be “independent” and, as a result, is not at this time required to have on its Board comprised of a majority of “Independent Directors.”

 

The Board and Committees  


The Board does not maintain a separate audit, nominating or compensation committee.  Functions customarily performed by such committees are performed by the Board as a whole.  


The Board does not have a policy with regard to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by security holders.


Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

The Board evaluates its leadership structure and role in risk oversight on an ongoing basis. Currently, Gert Funk serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and upon the Effective Date, Mr. Funk will serve as a Director and Joseph Page will serve as Chairman of the Board.  The Board does not currently have a lead independent director. The Board determines what leadership structure it deems appropriate based on factors such as the experience of the applicable individuals, the current business environment of the Company or other relevant factors.

 

The Board is also responsible for oversight of the Company’s risk management practices while management is responsible for the day-to-day risk management processes. This division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company, and the Company’s Board leadership structure supports this approach. The Board receives periodic reports from management regarding the most significant risks facing the Company.

 

Communication with the Board




 

Stockholders or other interested parties may communicate with the Board by sending mail to the Company’s offices at 3651 Lindell Road, Suite D565, Las Vegas, Nevada 89103.


Board Meetings


During its fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, the Board of B4MC did not hold any meetings and did not take any actions by written consent.    


Family Relationships


There are no family relationships between or among B4MC’s directors and executive officer.


Legal Proceedings


To B4MC’s knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any director, director nominee, officer or affiliate of B4MC is a party adverse to B4MC or has a material interest adverse to B4MC.  


CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS


Since January 1, 2016, B4MC has not engaged in any transactions exceeding $120,000 with persons who were directors, officers or affiliates before and at the time of the transaction, and persons known by it to be the beneficial owners of 5% or more of its common stock.


SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires B4MC’s directors and executive officers and beneficial holders of more than 10% of its Common Stock to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of its equity securities. Based solely upon its review of such forms received by it, or written representations from certain reporting persons, B4MC is not aware of any instances when an executive officer, director or any owner of more than 10% of the outstanding shares of its Common Stock failed to comply with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, except as follows: Henrik Rouf had 12 reportable transactions that were not reported on a timely basis on Form 4; Henrik Oerbekker had seven reportable transactions that were not reported on a timely basis on Form 4 and Carsten Jensen had two reportable transactions that were not reported on a timely basis on Forms 3 and 4.  On July 20, 2018, each such person made a filing with the Commission under Section 16(a). Based solely upon its review of such forms, the Company believes that such persons are no longer delinquent in such filing requirements.


EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION


B4MC’s officers and director did not receive any compensation for his services rendered to B4MC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other similar programs have been adopted by B4MC for the benefit of its employee.
