Mr. Anderson, 64, is the founder and Senior Managing Partner of Plantagenet and has over 35 years experience in investment management. Mr. Anderson has been active in the restructuring of several Plantagenet investments including Bonneville-Pacific Corporation, and Dalgety plc.

In 1974 after a number of years in sales, brokerage and arbitrage, Mr. Anderson formed his own securities brokerage firm, C.D. Anderson & Co., Inc., which was active in the then new field of discount brokerage. The company focused its marketing efforts on high net worth individuals and grew to be the second largest discount broker in the West with an average account size of more than four times that of its chief competitor, Charles Schwab & Co. In 1983, Mr. Anderson co-developed and introduced the world's first PC-based real-time system for trading securities on line. Mr. Anderson sold C.D. Anderson & Co. to Security Pacific Bank (now part of Bank of America) in 1985.

After the 1987 market crash, Mr. Anderson redirected his energies to money management with the founding of Anderson Capital Management, Inc. (ACM), which at one time managed approximately $60 million for over 250 high net worth individuals, foundations, and other not-for-profit entities. In the late 1980s, Mr. Anderson became involved in the Chapter 11 reorganization of Munsingwear, Inc., an apparel manufacturer now known as PremiumWear, Inc. as Chairman of the Creditors Committee. He successfully negotiated a bankruptcy filing and a plan of reorganization for the company. In order to capitalize on the turnaround expertise he developed in that transaction, Mr. Anderson formed Plantagenet¹s immediate predecessor, Plantagenet Holdings Limited (PHL). PHL founded Plantagenet Partners I, L.P., an investment partnership that made a highly successful investment in Bonneville-Pacific Corporation, an alternative energy company. Building on the experience of this and several other value/restructuring investments.
