The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Control4 Corporation (the “Company”) appointed Mark Novakovich as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, effective as of August 25, 2015.  Mr. Novakovich has been with Control4 since 2004 and currently serves as the Company’s Vice President of Finance.   For the last several years, Mr. Novakovich has been responsible for all of Control4’s finance and accounting operations, as well as its tax, treasury, order management, and internal control activities.  

 

Prior to his employment with Control4, Mr. Novakovich held several senior finance positions including Chief Financial Officer at Lineo, a global provider of embedded Linux products, tools and services (acquired by Motorola); and Corporate Controller at I-Link, a developer of VOIP technology and products.  Mr. Novakovich began his career in public accounting at Coopers & Lybrand (now PricewaterhouseCoopers).    Mr. Novakovich is a Certified Public Accountant and received his Bachelor’s of Accounting from Brigham Young University in 1992.

Pursuant to his role as Vice President of Finance, Mr. Novakovich entered into the Company’s standard Indemnification Agreement on August 2, 2013, the form of which was included as Exhibit 10.1 to Company’s S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 1, 2013.  There are no other arrangements or understandings between Mr. Novakovich and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Novakovich was appointed as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
