ITEM 5.02

DEPARTURE OF DIRECTORS OR CERTAIN OFFICERS; ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; APPOINTMENT OF CERTAIN OFFICERS; COMPENSATORY ARRANGEMENTS OF CERTAIN OFFICERS.

On June 4, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ault Global Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), appointed Glen E. Tellock to serve as an independent director of the Company. Subsequent to the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), Mr. Tellock will replace Jeffrey Bentz on the Audit Committee of the Board. Mr. Tellock qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and satisfies the financial sophistication requirements set forth in the NYSE American rules. In addition, subsequent to the Annual Meeting, Mr. Tellock will replace Jodi Brichan on the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board and serve as the chair thereof.

Mr. Tellock has been the President and CEO of Lakeside Foods, a privately-held international food processor, since May 2016 and plans to retire from this position effective May 2021. Previously, he served as the President and CEO of The Manitowoc Company, a manufacturer of construction and food service equipment, from May 2007 until October 2015. He also served as Chairman of the Board of The Manitowoc Company from February 2009 until October 2015. Prior thereto, he served as Senior Vice President of The Manitowoc Company beginning in 1999 and President and General Manager of Manitowoc Crane Group beginning in 2002. Prior to joining Manitowoc in 1991, Mr. Tellock served as Financial Planning Manager with the Denver Post Corporation and as Audit Manager with Ernst and Whinney (now Ernst & Young, LLP). Mr. Tellock also currently serves as a director on the board of Badger Meter, Inc. and Astec Industries, Inc. The Company believes that Mr. Tellock’s extensive knowledge and experience with respect to financial reporting and risk assessment give him the qualifications and skills to serve as one of our directors and as one of the financial experts on the Company’s Audit Committee.

There were no arrangements or understandings between the Company or any other person and Mr. Tellock pursuant to his appointment, nor is there a family relationship between Mr. Tellock and any current member of the Board.

There have been no transactions between Mr. Tellock and the Company and no disclosure is required under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
