[EDWARD STEVENSON]

WLSA ~ Chairman and CEO, John G. Simmonds, Wireless Age Communications, Inc.


Simmonds carries decades of experience in turning development-stage projects into multi-million dollar ventures. Clublink Inc., as Canada's largest golf course operator with enterprise value of over $1,000,000,000 was founded by Simmonds in 1989.

In 1989, Mr. Simmonds purchased the first of many golf courses, Cherry Downs, a private 18-hole golf course located
just north of Toronto, Canada. Cherry Downs was later sold into a public company, which became Clublink Corporation (TO: LNK) and today is the largest golf course operation in Canada.

Simmonds' earlier practice led him into acquiring hopeless operations and restructuring them to sell for multi-millions. Dynacharge was sold to Duracell for $10,000,000 in 1985, after Simmonds had acquired it for $100,000.

In 1981, he began a long career of buying low cost acquisitions and building them up for later resale. He purchased Dynacharge out of bankruptcy for $100,000 and sold it four years later for $10 million.

In 1991, as a director of Glenayre Electronics, Simmonds aided in taking the company public on the Nasdaq for $80,000,000. The company peaked at $3,000,000,000 in the early nineties.

Simmonds recalls the day in late 1987 when he took control of Glenayre Electronics from Klaus Deering, the man who had spent 19 years building the company from an insignificant $300,000 outfit to a $34-million manufacturer of communications equipment. Speaking of those days now, he says: "I don't want to be dishonest, but I don't want to wash a lot of dirty linen in public--there wasn't a lot of it. Actually, Klaus and I got along pretty well," says Simmonds. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_hb3379/is_198902/ai_n8117201/
