Item
5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of
Certain Officers
On
September 18, 2026, the Board of Directors of Trafalgar International, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), accepted
the resignation of Porfirio Sanchez Talavera as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Mr. Talavera will
continue to serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors. Concurrently, the Board of Directors appointed Carlos Septién as the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Septién resigned from his position as Chief
Operating Officer.
The
Company’s transition in executive leadership follows its recent corporate name change to Trafalgar International, Inc. and reflects
management’s continued focus on its acquisition and business development strategy. The Company is a publicly traded acquisition
and business development company focused on acquiring, developing and growing businesses in the financial services, technology and intellectual
property sectors. The appointment of Mr. Septién as Chief Executive Officer reflects the Company’s commitment to building
an executive leadership team with significant experience in banking, financial services and operating businesses.
The
Company believes these management changes better position it to execute its broader strategic objectives and business plan. Neither Mr.
Talavera’s resignation as Chief Executive Officer nor Mr. Septién’s resignation as Chief Operating Officer resulted
from any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.
The
appointment of Mr. Septién as Chief Executive Officer and to the Board of Directors was not made pursuant to any arrangement or
understanding between Mr. Septién and any other person, except in connection with the Company’s acquisition of control by
Trafalgar Asset Management, LLC and the Company’s ongoing strategic business initiatives. There are no family relationships between
Mr. Septién and any director or executive officer of the Company.
To
the knowledge of the Company, Carlos Septién has not, during the past ten years, been involved in any legal proceeding required
