TORONTO, May 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Firan Technology Group Corporation (TSX:FTG) (“GFT“or the”Company”) today announced the acceptance of the resignation of Mr. Kumail Gangjee.
After consideration and unsuccessful attempts to meet with shareholders who abstained from voting for Mr. Gangjee’s reappointment to the FTG Board of Directors this year, the board reluctantly accepted Mr. Gangjee’s resignation in accordance with the policy of our company which stipulates that a director who does not receive a vote in favor of his election representing the majority of the shares voted and retained for the election of the director will submit his resignation to the consideration of the corporate governance committee.
Mr. Gangjee conducted himself professionally, ethically and with the primary concerns of all stakeholders of the Company during his tenure. His actions were consistent with the values and demands of the board and were well suited to meet the challenges of building a small business like ours. We wish him good luck. The Board strives to seek out the right people with the appropriate diversity and breadth to help guide the company into the future.
