Questor Technology Inc. announced the resignation of James Inkster, Derek O?Malley-Keyes, Glenn Leroux and Stewart Hanlon (collectively, the Resigning Directors) from the Board of Directors of the Company (the Questor Board). The positions made available by the resignations have been filled through the appointment of four new directors being, Dr. Normand Brais, Mr. Paul Huizinga, Mr. Bastien Commet and Mr. David Stam (the New Directors). The Questor Board will now be comprised of the New Directors as well as Audrey Mascarenhas, who has also resumed her position as President of the Company effective immediately and will take on the role of Chair of the Questor Board.

In conjunction with his resignation from the Questor Board, Mr. O?Malley-Keyes has also stepped down from his position as interim President. Following the previous announcement on August 23, 2023, regarding the departure of Ms. Mascarenhas from the position of President and Chief Executive Officer, certain shareholders of Questor, including Ms. Mascarenhas, comprising a majority position of shareholdings in the Company, engaged in communications with the Resigning Directors regarding the future direction of the Company and certain other related matters. The communications ultimately led to the decision by the Resigning Directors that stepping down from the Questor Board is in the best interests of the Company.

The Company welcomed Normand, Paul, Bastien and David to the Questor Board. Alongside Ms. Mascarenhas, it is expected that their diverse experience and expertise will help drive growth and success at Questor.
