Through the remainder of 2014, Mr. Motyka and Mr. Donaldson will continue to work together on specific initiatives. As of January 1, 2015, Mr. Motyka will retire from full-time Albion employment, but will continue to collaborate with Albion on a consulting basis for special projects. 
 
“It has been a pleasure to witness and play a role in the growth of Albion over the years,” said Mr. Motyka. “I am happy to have served with a team so dedicated to research, science, and market innovation. With Albion poised for continued growth and success, it is encouraging to know that I am passing the torch of sales director to Mr. Donaldson, a proven, effective sales professional, with a depth of industry knowledge.”
