FTTN Promotes Harvey S. Bryant to Chairman and CEO

BRADENTON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

First Titan Corp. FTTN announced today that the Company has promoted veteran energy executive Harvey S. Bryant to the position of chairman and CEO.

Bryant brings nearly four decades of energy industry experience to First Titan. For more than a decade, he handled oil and gas investments for the Oklahoma-based investment banking firm Anderson, Bryant and Company and helped found the National Investment Banking Association (NIBA).

Today, Bryant continues to consult and serve on the board of several oil and gas companies across the U.S. He has served as FTTN's chief operating officer since October 2012. Bryant succeeds Robert Federowicz as CEO, who resigned his position at the beginning of the year to pursue other opportunities.

The Company will rely heavily on Bryant's wealth of industry experience and contacts as it enters an ambitious 2013. The first well in Alabama's Little Cedar Creek Field is already operating at maximum permitted output. Plans call for drilling to begin at a second well in neighboring Louisiana within a matter of weeks.

That's only a start, however. First Titan is aggressively pursuing more exciting new opportunities in oil and gas in and around the Gulf Coast. The Company is also pursuing the acquisition of existing production wells in Louisiana, Texas and elsewhere.

First Titan is working to develop new energy solutions to compete in a booming global industry alongside Chesapeake Energy Corp. CHK, Anadarko Petroleum Corp. APC, SandRidge Energy Inc. SD and Apache Corp. APA.
