Given the extraordinarily positive global response for our efforts to-date, we identified that the Company had to look carefully at our operational structure. With the speed-to-market we have to achieve in 2018, we need to act decisively to ensure we can manage our projected business growth, product rollout and corporate alliances with key partners. I am delighted that Dinesh will now be available to focus on the bigger picture of corporate development and strategic alliances. No one has been as dedicated and worked more tirelessly as he has since the very start of this endeavor. It speaks volumes that his role will be replaced by a team. While the entire Board and myself are sincerely and personally very pleased to have his continued expertise at hand, we also are excited to welcome Robert and Paul to our growing leadership team. 2018 will see remarkable advancements, as we continue our efforts to rid the world of tragic and random acts of violence.”
