Mr. Pedlar takes over as Chairman from Steven Lamb, who served as Texada's Chairman since 2006. Mr. Lamb has graciously agreed to continue to serve as a director of the Company.
"On behalf of the entire board and shareholders, I would like to thank Steven Lamb for his hard work and guidance as chairman of the Company for these past several years", said Brian Pedlar. "Steven has dedicated a significant amount of time to helping Texada and the Company has benefited greatly from his experience and wisdom. Texada is fortunate to have Steven continue as an active board member with the Company."
Iqbal Kassam chose to retire from the board of directors and not stand for re-election at the annual general meeting. Mr. Kassam has been an active director of the Company since going public in 2002 and previously when it was a private company.
"As outgoing chair of the board, I would like to thank Iqbal for his service as a board member of Texada", said Steven Lamb. "Under Iqbal's strategic guidance as an active member of our board, Texada has grown into a leading provider of asset management software with over 400 customers. Texada has benefited tremendously from Iqbal's experience in the rental asset management market and his sound business judgment over the years."
"The board met following the annual meeting and discussed priorities for the upcoming year", said Brian Pedlar. "I am very excited about Texada's prospects notwithstanding the challenging economy we are facing. I have worked closely with Nigel Miller, the Company's CEO over the past six months and I continue to be impressed with his commitment, experience and leadership. Texada has a loyal customer base that has responded positively to recent product enhancements released over the last several months. We have a talented, hard-working group of employees and a dedicated and experienced board of directors. These assets are important building blocks towards increasing shareholder value and I look forward to working with Nigel and Texada's talented board of directors to make this happen over the coming year."
