Max brings
significant additional strength to the board in terms of his
experience in the natural resources sector and I look forward to
working closely with him to grow Oscillate into a significant
participant in the energy transition in the UK capital
markets.
I would
like to thank Mr. Xerri for his longstanding service to the Company
as director and steadfast support during these recent months. Mr
Xerri will continue to support the Company as an executive while he
works out his notice period.
We will
benefit from the continuity that he brings and look forward to
working closely to with him to propel Oscillate success over the
next few months.’

Oscillate to this opportunity point, I have confidence in Robin to
transition the business to where shareholders would require, the
appointment of Mr Denning further compliments the transition and I
will work hard to continue to embed the values which have been
valued by all shareholders. Under Robin’s stewardship I am
confident of this future and while it brings an effective end to my
involvement as a Director of Oscillate I will leave with a sense of

successful and fruitful conclusion long after my notice period
ends.
