COTELLIGENT APPOINTS RALPH H. BAXTER, JR.
TO ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS
San Francisco - March 6, 2000 - Cotelligent (NYSE: CGZ), a leading provider of
information technology (IT) consulting and outsourcing services, announced today
the addition of Ralph H. Baxter, Jr., chairman and CEO of Orrick, Herrington &
Sutcliffe LLP, to its Board of Directors. Mr. Baxter joined Orrick in 1974 and
has served at his current post since 1990. His tenure as chairman is unequaled
by any other large firm leader in the United States.
"I'm enthusiastic about the investment Cotelligent continues to make in its
future," Baxter said. "Cotelligent's vision is to be a dynamic firm that can
effectively meet the challenges presented by a constantly changing marketplace,
and I look forward to supporting all efforts to that end."
Primarily focused on finance and technology, Orrick has grown from a mid-size
regional firm into a global powerhouse under the forethought and leadership of
Mr. Baxter. It has been independently ranked as one of the world's leading law
firms in structured finance, project finance and public finance. Mr. Baxter's
success can be credited in part to his dedication to core values, a vision that
informs every Orrick employee's work process and is reflected in the highest
level of service to clients.
Mr. Baxter serves on the Executive Committee of the San Francisco Partnership,
an alliance of business and government to advance economic growth and
development within the City and County of San Francisco. He was also a member of
the Mayor's 1997 Trade Delegation to China. Mr. Baxter has recently been
requested to serve as an advisor to the Dean of Harvard University's Kennedy
School of Government on issues relating to the internationalization of law. A
graduate of the University of Virginia Law School in 1974, Baxter received his
BA from Stanford University and his MA from Catholic University.
"I am confident that Mr. Baxter will be a tremendous asset to our Board, " said
Jim Lavelle, Cotelligent's chairman, CEO and president. "His demonstrated
leadership in the realms of career
