Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On February 21, 2008, the Board of Directors of ABX Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), appointed Mr. Jeffrey A. Dominick, age 43, as a Class I Director to the Board to fill the vacancy created by the death of Mr. Frederick R. Reed. Mr. Dominick's term will expire in 2010. Mr. Dominick will serve on the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Audit Committee. Since 2006, Mr. Dominick has served as Managing Director with MassMutual Capital Partners, a private equity investment subsidiary that is part of the MassMutual Financial Group of Companies. Prior to being one of the founding Partners of MassMutual Capital in 2006, Mr. Dominick worked in Private Debt and Equity financing for Babson Capital Management, which is the asset management subsidiary for the MassMutual Financial Group, from 2002 through 2006. In this role, Mr. Dominick specialized in investing in airline and aircraft related transactions, with a focus as well in the transportation and logistics industries.
On December 31, 2007, the Company acquired Cargo Holdings International, Inc. ("Cargo"). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement among the Company, CHI Acquisition Corp., Cargo and certain significant shareholders of Cargo (including various MassMutual entities), the Company agreed to nominate for election to the Company's board of directors a candidate selected by the significant shareholders. Per this agreement, Mr. Dominick would have been nominated for election at the Company's next annual meeting of stockholders; however, due to the existing vacancy, the Board chose to appoint Mr. Dominick prior to the meeting.
