In 1993, Ms. Jones was founding partner of Cassidy, Jones & Co., Inc., and was that firm’s President and CEO until Cassidy, Jones & Co. was sold to Axis Global, a subsidiary of Sunward Global, in March, 2000.  Since the sale of Cassidy, Jones & Co., Inc. Ms. Jones held positions with VanDerMoolen Specialists as Head of Business Development from 2006-2008, and Head of Business Development at Curex Currency Hedge Fund from 2008-2009.

She also serves on the advisory board of the Felix Organization, which serves to help children in the foster care system. 


On July 15, 2016, the Registrant entered into a Service Agreement with Louise Jones, as Head of Institutional Sales.   Ms. Jones received a signing bonus of $150,000, is to be paid $240,000 per year, and is to receive bonuses beginning if and when total institutional sales of the Registrant or its subsidiaries reaches $400,000,000. As security for the payment of her annual compensation, the Registrant agreed to escrow $240,000 in cash plus an additional $240,000 in restricted stock. Ms. Jones will also receive100,000 shares of the Registrant’s common stock, which shares are to be transferred from Mr. Prasad, the Interim CFO and former majority shareholder, and from a former director.


Ms. Jones has not been the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which she was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time. Ms. Jones has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding, nor has she been the subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations, and other minor offenses), or subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.
