Panache Beverage, Inc. Announces Executive Changes and "Business as Usual" During Development of Revised Corporate Strategy

NEW YORK, April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Panache Beverage Inc. (OTCQB: WDKA) (the "Company" or "Panache") announced in a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2014 that the board of directors accepted the resignations of key members of the company's executive team including James Dale (President/CEO), Agata Podedworny (COO), and Sjoerd de Jong (Vice President of Sales). Michael Romer, Managing Director of Panache, has been appointed interim President and CEO.

The executive changes resulted from a review of the Company's current business strategy with Panache's senior secured lender, Consilium Investment Management, Ltd., which has terminated its financial advisory agreement with the Company. Consilium and Panache are currently negotiating the terms and conditions of a modification of the Company's debt and a revised business strategy that would ensure the long-term viability of Panache. In addition, Panache is interviewing potential candidates to replace senior management.

"Panache is operating its business as usual," commented Michael Romer. "Our distribution and logistics partners remain unchanged and our marketing agency of record remains in place. Sales support of the brands continues."

Panache Distillery, LLC, based out of central Florida, continues its operations and is led by its President, Jacob Call. Panache and Consilium may consider additional investment capital to increase the distillery's bulk sales, distilling and co-packing production capabilities.
