"We are very pleased with the appointment of Paul Frick as the new CEO of OXE Marine. In his
role as CFO he has done a fantastic job in managing the company's
finances and played a vital part in improving the company's
financial position, as well as engaging with the company's
shareholders and investor community. Paul has also been actively
involved in commercial operations working closely and gaining the

him assume the role of CEO and we are confident that he is the
right person to manage and to continue the development of the
company, following on from Anders who has decided to move on." -

development of OXE. In recent years the company has undergone
several changes and has made solid progress in industrialising the
business. I look forward to continuing the good work carried out by
my colleagues, an extremely passionate and dedicated team. I look
forward to leading the team with humility, hard work and above all
- focus on where we can add the most value to our customers." -

Anders Berg has been the CEO

has chosen to resign as CEO to spend more time with his family and
pursue other interests.
"It has been a privilege to lead and develop the business. The
employees are the company's greatest asset, and I would like to
especially thank them for their efforts. I look forward to
continuing to support the company and follow the company's
development as a "disruptor" in the marine industry. I know that
Paul, who I have worked with for many years, is very well suited to
lead the company towards profitability and an even stronger market
position and I am very pleased that he is taking over as CEO, and
for my part look forward to spending more time for my family and
pursuing other interests in the future." - says Anders Berg.

company structurally and driven the commercial development from a
startup into a brand recognised in the marine world. The company's
operations have expanded, and the business activities have
intensified. I want to thank Anders for his decisive efforts for
the company, for his very hard work, and the great cooperation we
have had together." - says Jonas Wikström.
