Bakkens CFO and now director notes, We are fortunate to have Mr. Williams join the Board, and I am honored to serve with him. My experience as a Bakken officer will help ensure the Board makes fully informed decisions, particularly when decisions relate matters tied to the CFO function. In addition, Mr. Williams training as a certified public accountant with decades of experience involving accounting, compliance, corporate governance, and related matters will be instrumental to Board decisions and shareholder value.
Mr. Williams is a Certified Public Accountant licensed in the State of Montana specializing in accounting, tax, internal controls, and regulatory compliance. Since graduating from University of Wyoming with a B.S. in accounting in 1985, Mr. Williams has overseen or performed such services for public companies, private companies, non-profits, and governments. Mr. Williams has owned and operated his own accounting practice in Helena, Montana since 2001. Before starting his own practice, he held related positions in Laramie, Wyoming. Mr. Williams was an administrative services director for the City of Laramie for six years, from 1994 to 2000. He was also a manager at Simonsen Mader Tschacher & Company, the second largest accounting firm in Wyoming, from 1991 to 1994. Before that, Mr. Williams was a senior staff accountant at McGladrey & Pullen from 1985 to 1991.
Mr. Anderson has served as the Companys CFO since May 23, 2014. He graduated from the Montana College of Mineral Science and Technology in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration, Finance and Accounting. After graduation, Mr. Anderson served as the CFO of a health care company and was a partner in a consulting firm.

Mr. Andersons election to the Board filled an existing vacancy. The Board expanded the number of seats from six to seven to create the available vacancy for Mr. Williams appointment to the Board.
