Item 5.02 Department of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

Appointment of Chief Financial Officer

On February 27, 2026, the Board of Directors of American Clean Resources Group, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Luke McPherson as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Board’s decision reflects the Company’s increasing financial-reporting, audit-readiness, and capital-markets needs as it advances its long-term growth and uplisting initiatives.

Mr. McPherson has extensive experience in public-company financial reporting, technical accounting, and the evaluation and documentation of complex equity and debt transactions. Prior to joining the Company, he supported management teams of U.S. public companies with SEC reporting (Forms 10-K and 10-Q), business-combination accounting, and PCAOB audit coordination. His background also includes capital-markets readiness, multi-entity structuring, treasury-process enhancements, and the design and documentation of internal controls, including work with companies operating in regulated industries and emerging real-world asset (RWA) business models.

As Chief Financial Officer, Mr. McPherson will oversee the Company’s financial strategy, SEC reporting and disclosure processes, corporate finance and treasury operations, audit coordination, and governance-related activities. His appointment was not made pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any other person. Mr. McPherson has no family relationships with any director or executive officer of the Company. There are no related-party transactions requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

The Company and Mr. McPherson have agreed in principle to an equity-based compensation arrangement, which will be disclosed in a subsequent filing once finalized and approved by the Board.

Transition of Former Chief Financial Officer

In connection with Mr. McPherson’s appointment, Sharon Ullman, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, transitioned into the newly created role of Chief Registrar & Shareholder Officer, effective February 27, 2026.

In this capacity, Ms. Ullman will oversee shareholder-records administration, transfer-agent coordination, registrar operations, shareholder correspondence processes, and related governance functions. Ms. Ullman remains an integral member of the Company’s leadership team. Her transition was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies, or practices.
