"We would like to thank him for his dedication over the years and look forward to continuing to draw on his extensive experience as a Non-Executive Director as we move into a key phase for Edenville. 2013 will be a crucial year for Edenville and I look forward to ensuring that the company delivers on key milestones throughout the year."
