On February 11, 2019, Mr. Crandall Melvin, Chief Financial Officer of SilverSun Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), tendered his resignation to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), effective immediately. Mr. Melvin did not resign as a result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices, but because he is retiring. Mr. Melvin will continue to serve as an advisor to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

On February 11, 2019, in connection with Mr. Melvin’s resignation, the Board appointed Ms. Christine Dye, currently an employee of the Company, as Chief Financial Officer of both the Company and SWK Technologies, Inc., the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, effective immediately.

As CFO of Send Word Now, Inc., and later as CFO at On-Net Surveillance Systems, both private-equity sponsored companies, she assisted in the sale of both businesses. In addition, she was previously Finance Director at Citrix Systems, Inc., where she also served as part of the leadership team for GoToAssist™ and the Audio Conferencing division.

 

Christine earned her B.S. in Accounting from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and is a Certified Public Accountant in New Jersey.  

 

Ms. Dye will be employed by the Company at-will and shall receive $220,000 per annum for her services and is eligible for a discretionary bonus of up to 10% of her annual salary.

 

There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Dye and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Dye was selected as an officer.

 

There are no family relationships between Ms. Dye and any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer of the Company within the meaning of Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (“Regulation S-K”).

 

Since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, the Company has not engaged in any transaction in which Ms. Dye had a direct or indirect material interest within the meaning of Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. 

 

On February 12, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Ms. Dye as the Chief Financial Officer. A copy of the press release is filed hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
