To All Lancair Customers and Vendors,
As many of you may be aware, the ownership of Lancair was
restructured on 7 June 2010 and publicly announced on 1 July 2010 wherein Gene
Wolstenholme and the Wolstenholme family (the Wolstenholmes) assumed majority ownership of all
Lancair companies as a
result of a substantial infusion of cash capital.
Joe Bartels retained a minority position. In concert with this ownership
restructure, Gene Wolstenholme appointed Bob Wolstenholme as CEO/President for
the Lancair companies.
Joe Bartels was named Vice President - International Sales for the Lancair
companies. Over the past few months (since 7 June 2010), there have
arisen several unresolved disputes between the two owners of Lancair (the
Wolstenholme Family and Joe Bartels). As a result of these disputes and
continuing irreconcilable differences regarding the future direction of the
company, Bob Wolstenholme has terminated the employment and services of Joe
Bartels in any official Lancair company capacity, on behalf of Lancair and all affiliated
companies, and/or representing the Lancair companies in any manner.
However, it is the Wolstenholme's hope that an appropriate agreement with Joe
Bartels regarding the resolution of
ongoing disputes can be reached in the near future.
We very much value your continued
business with Lancair and ask that if you have any questions or concerns to
please contact Bob Wolstenholme (CEO)at bobw@lancair.com,
Tom Bowen (COO) at tbowen@lancair.com, Doug Meyer
(Director of Sales & Marketing) at dougm@lancair.com, or Randy Akacich
(CFO) at randya@lancair.com. If you prefer
to speak directly to any of the executive team with questions or concerns, you
may also call Lancair at 541-923-2244.
Thank you again for your continued
business and we look forward to working with all of you!
Sincerely,
Bob Wolstenholme, CEO - Lancair
Tom Bowen, COO - Lancair
Doug Meyer, Director of Sales &
Marketing - Lancair
Randy Akacich, CFO - Lancair
