MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Jan 24, 2014) - SENSIO Technologies Inc. ("SENSIO" or "the Company") (TSX VENTURE:SIO)(OTC:SNIOF), announced today the new composition of its Board of directors, following its annual meeting which took place earlier today in Montreal.

The Board of directors elected today comprises the following new members:

  • Mr. Georges Karam - Chairman of the Board

  • Mr. Yann Paquet - Board director and member of the Audit committee

  • Mr. Mathieu Péloquin - Board director and member of the Audit committee

Additionally, two members of the outgoing Board of directors are renewing their tenure:

  • Mr. Yvan Goineau - Board director and President of the Audit committee

  • Mr. Nicholas Routhier - Board director and President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company

Changes to remuneration and structure

For the purpose of enabling the company to use its funds for further development of 3DGO!, a new remuneration method has been established, under which independent Board members will be remunerated solely in stock options of the Company. The remuneration will be applied as follows, at the price of $0.12 per share, representing the closing price of the stock on January 23, 2014:

  • Chairman of the Board: 225,000 options

  • Chairman of the Audit committee: 175,000 options

  • Other independent members of the Board: 125,000 options

  • Total: 650,000 options

"We strongly believe in SENSIO and we wish to show our commitment to the Company by forfeiting a traditional form of remuneration in favor of this options-based method," said Georges Karam, Chairman of the Board. "By doing so, we are ensuring that SENSIO's financial resources will be dedicated to development efforts for the years to come. We're eager to contribute to the success of the Company in the coming months and years, and this is merely one of our first efforts to that end."

In order to alleviate the structure of the Board, its members have also agreed to abolish the Human Resources committee. Instead, related decisions will now devolve directly to the Board.

Extension of options for outgoing members of the Board of directors

Current members of the Board have also agreed to extend the validity of options belonging to outgoing members of the Board until January 23rd, 2015, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

"By extending the validity of their options, we wish to acknowledge the outstanding work of our outgoing Board members", said Nicholas Routhier, President & Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Their support and continuous efforts over all these years were crucial for the development of the Company, notably for the inception and launch of 3DGO!, and we owe them a great part of our continued success."
