Franchise Capital Corporation Announces Continued Management Transition Following Close of Acquisition of Aero Exhaust Friday October 5, 2:21 pm ET
MURRIETA, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 5, 2007 -- Franchise Capital Corporation (Other OTC:FCCN.PK - News), which has closed its acquisition of Aero Exhaust, Inc., a world leader in performance exhaust airflow technology and NASCAR Performance Partner, today announced the resignation of Steve Peacock as chief executive officer of Franchise Capital and the appointment of Bryan Hunsaker to the position of chief executive officer. Subsequent to Mr. Hunsaker's appointment, the Board accepted the resignation of Robert McCoy as a director. ADVERTISEMENT
Mr. Peacock was appointed to the position of chief executive officer of Franchise Capital on September 12, 2007, and his primary responsibility was to lead Franchise Capital's efforts to complete clean up efforts for the company, including bringing Franchise Capital current with its financial filings. He was also responsible for identifying an operating company for acquisition that would deliver long-term value for shareholders and completing the acquisition process.
The acquisition of Aero Exhaust by Franchise Capital was completed on October 4, 2007 with a share exchange between the two companies.
Upon accepting the position of CEO, Mr. Hunsaker stated, "Mr. Peacock's commitment to this acquisition and his desire to deliver value for the public company shareholders has been unwavering, and we would like to thank him for his tireless efforts to bring this transaction to completion. Mr. Peacock and Javelin Advisory Group will continue to be involved with the compliance, financial reporting and additional work related to operating the public company, and we look forward to their ongoing support."
Mr. McCoy, who served on the Board since September 27, 2005 and as chairman since September 12, 2006, was integral to the transition of Franchise Capital to become the appropriate public vehicle for Aero Exhaust.
"We would like to thank Robert McCoy for his service on the Board and laud his leadership through the transition of Franchise Capital from a restaurant franchise company, then to a shell, and finally through its acquisition of Aero Exhaust," stated Mr. Peacock. "The Board played an important role, and without Mr. McCoy's strong presence as chairman, there is little chance that this acquisition would have been completed."
The details of the management changes will be included in an upcoming Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Form 8-K is expected to be filed by October 11, 2007.
