Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On October 14, 2020, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of International Money Express, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Laura I. Maydón to serve as a director of the Company to fill a vacancy on the Board, effective as of October 15, 2020. Ms. Maydón was appointed as a Class I director of the Company for a term coinciding with the remaining term of the Class I directors (that is, until the next election of such class of directors at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders), and until her successor is elected and qualified or until her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.  Ms. Maydón was appointed to serve on the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Audit Committee upon the commencement of her term as a member of the Board.

Laura Maydón is the former Founding Managing Director and CEO of Endeavor Miami, the mission of which is to select, mentor and accelerate the growth of South Florida, high-impact entrepreneurs. She co-founded and led the organization from September 2013 until June 2019, when she stepped down as CEO and joined its Board of Directors for a year and now serves as a mentor of the organization.  Prior to that, she spent ten years at Visa, where she held several leadership roles, ultimately serving as Senior Business Leader (Vice President) of Commercial Solutions, Latin America and Caribbean from 2010 to 2013, as Business Development Leader (Associate Vice President of Strategic Alliances), Latin America and Caribbean from 2004 until 2010, and as Manager of Strategic Alliances, Latin America and Caribbean from 2003 to 2004. Before joining Visa, Ms. Maydón held several roles at Panamerican Beverages, a food and beverage public company, at Banc of America Equity Partners and Protego Investment Associates. Ms. Maydón also currently serves on the advisory boards of Sustalytics and Novopayment. She holds a bachelor’s degree from the Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (Summa Cum Laude) and a master’s degree in business administration from Harvard Business School.

The election of Ms. Maydón to fill a vacancy on the Board was based upon the recommendations of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board. There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Maydón and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Maydón was selected as a director.  Ms. Maydón has not had an interest in any transaction since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction, that requires disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Ms. Maydón will participate in the standard independent non-employee director compensation arrangements established by the Company, as described under the section entitled “Director Compensation” in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2020.
