Before the opening bell, Content Checked Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CNCK) announced the expansion of its board of advisors through the appointment of Dennis Fredricks, Esq., a Los Angeles-based attorney specializing in domestic and international business and entertainment law. Fredricks joins Dr. Marc Siegel, a clinical professor of medicine and the medical director of Doctor Radio on Sirius/XM, as a member of the company’s recently-formed board of advisors, whose goal is to provide guidance to Content Checked’s board of directors and management team, as needed to execute on business development, marketing and operational matters.
“Mr. Fredricks brings to us considerable practical experience having worked with U.S. and international companies in the tech sector and in traditional industries in many branches of commerce,” Kris Finstad, president and chief executive officer of Content Checked, stated in this morning’s news release. “Dennis’ understanding and background will help us bring our mobile apps to foreign markets.”
As the managing attorney of Fredricks & von der Horst, Fredricks has amassed tremendous experience in the legal field. He is currently the counsel and legal advisor to the Consulates General of ten countries, and he serves as production counsel in Los Angeles for a number of independent feature films and television programs. With a focus on individuals, companies and governmental agencies in the United States and Europe, Fredricks has authored several articles for widely-read trade publications, and he has also conducted a series of seminars centered on the issues of commercial law and comparative law between the U.S. and European jurisdictions.
“I am very happy to be joining Content Checked’s board of advisors and I’m looking forward to helping Kris and the Company continue to grow its business,” Fredricks stated in the news release.
The appointment of Fredricks marks another step in the right direction as Content Checked continues to pursue its planned application submission for uplisting to NASDAQ later this fiscal year. Earlier this month, the company got the ball rolling when it engaged Bonwick Capital Partners LLC as its financial and corporate advisor. Bonwick’s team of experienced financial and industry professionals is expected to play an essential role in Content Checked’s goal of tapping into broader capital market resources by uplisting.
Last week, Content Checked took a major step toward qualifying for the NASDAQ exchange when it announced the appointment of Dr. Göran Rune Skog, an accomplished physician with more than 35 years of experience in the field of medicine, as an independent addition to its board of directors. NASDAQ requires that a majority of the company’s board of directors be independent. Moving forward, Content Checked will also be required to adhere to the corporate governance standards set forth by NASDAQ, including the formation of an auditing committee, appointment of additional independent directors and adherence to management and officer compensation requirements.
