Mr. Richards will remain a Vice President of the Company to assist with the transition of duties to the Interim Chief Financial Officer until May 12, 2023. Mr. Richards’ resignation is not a result of any disagreement with the Company’s management or its external auditor.

On April 18, 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Wayne Wasechek, the Company’s Controller and Principal Accounting Officer, as the Company’s Interim Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, effective April 19, 2023. The Company will undertake a search for a new Chief Financial Officer.

Mr. Wasechek, age 53, has served as Controller and Principal Accounting Officer since November 2018. He previously served as Vice President and Assistant Controller of Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: MTN) from 2011 to 2018 and as Senior Director of Financial Reporting of Vail Resorts from 2006 to 2011.
