and announced a stock buyback.
Sam Bradt was elected chairman of IBNL’s board of directors, along with new
board members Robert (“Jay”) McShirley, who continues as CEO and president,

have less than 100 shares. This plan is designed to help those shareholders
and reduce the number of outstanding shares.”
