Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
We are sorry to inform our shareholders and the public in general of the passing of Mr. James F. O'Rourke, our beloved President and Director of Powerdyne International Inc. and its two wholly owned subsidiaries CM Technology LLC and Frame One LLC for the past ten years. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family. He will be greatly missed.
On May 12, the past members of the Board of Directors of Powerdyne International, Inc. (the "Company") appointed (i) Anthony Carchide as President and Chief Financial Officer and elected him to serve as a director of the Company until the next annual meeting of the shareholders and (ii) Maryellen Emerson as Vice-President and Secretary and elected her to serve as a director of the Company until the next annual meeting of the shareholders.
Mr. Carchide, (50)
Tony has more than 20 years of outside sales experience, beginning in the sports memorabilia industry where he worked with athletes and managers to coordinate signings and procure memorabilia pieces.
Most of his career has been spent in the telecommunications industry, working with companies such as AT&T, Lumen Technologies, and China Telecom Americas.
Tony, a close relative of James O'Rourke, had been preparing to assume leadership of Powerdyne International Inc. In March 2025, he transitioned to CM Technology LLC. and the motor industry, where he focused on developing new business opportunities, expanding the customer base, and modernizing the company's sales and marketing efforts. Since joining CM Technology, he has worked to streamline internal processes and improve overall efficiency, and he plans to continue pursuing new business and other opportunities to support the company's growth.
Ms. Emerson (64)
Mary, the sister of James O'Rourke, has managed the operations of both Frame One LLC and CM Technology LLC for more than 20 years, shipping CM's first motors from her kitchen counter. Working closely together, Mary and Jim built the company from the ground up and helped grow it into the successful business it is today.
In addition to her work with CM Technology, Mary also managed Frame One, where she combined her passion for picture framing with more than 30 years of industry experience. Together, Mary and Jim built Frame One into the thriving business it is today, with a strong presence in the local community. Mary also expanded the company's framing services into the corporate sector by developing relationships with businesses and schools.
