I feel that Mr. Malinge's value will show up tremendously for POET in relation to his experience at Corning "he worked for more than 15 years at Corning Incorporated, a world leader in optical, display and advanced materials technologies, where he held various executive positions including vice president of optical networking components. "

Also, Corning is a contender in fibre optic cables since the Internet revolution began.

Mr. Malinge's experience aligns with POET's addressable market very well.
