Departure of Roger Bulloch as a Director

On February 15, 2023, Roger Bulloch, a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of QualTek Services Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), notified the Company that he was resigning from the Board, effective immediately. Mr. Bulloch’s resignation is not the result of any disagreement with the Company relating to its operations, policies or practices or with its Board or management.

Election of Alan J. Carr as a Director

On February 15, 2023, the Board elected Alan J. Carr as an independent director of the Company, effective immediately, to fill the vacancy created by Mr. Bulloch’s resignation, with a term expiring at our annual meeting of stockholders in 2024 or until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation, removal or death. The Board also appointed Mr. Carr to serve as the chairman of a special committee of the Board, which has been established to review and approve strategic and financial initiatives. 

Mr. Carr will be compensated pursuant to an independent director agreement, under which he will be paid a monthly fee of $40,000, and an additional $7,500 per day for every day he devotes more than four hours of time, outside of Board meetings, for meetings or activities outside the scope of normal Board duties.

Mr. Carr is an experienced fiduciary and investment professional with over 25 years of experience around financially distressed companies. He has vast experience investing in and leading complex financial restructurings and M&A transactions as well as serving on boards of directors of distressed and reorganized businesses around the globe.

The Board determined that Mr. Carr is an independent director within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and the listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market. There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Carr and any other person in connection with his appointment as director of the Company, and there are no transactions or relationships between Mr. Carr and the Company and its subsidiaries that require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
