Ms. Steele will continue to serve as a director and member of the Audit Committee until the Annual Meeting. Effective as of the date of the Annual Meeting, the size of the Board will be reduced to five directors.

“The Company has accomplished a great deal in these last several months and I am proud to be a part of the Company during its transition,” said Ms. Steele. “I am confident in Lantronix’s future under Saleel’s leadership.
