Medical Leave of Absence Requested By ADX CEO
ADX Energy Ltd or Company (ASX Code: ADX) advises that the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr Paul
Fink has requested a period of leave to recover from a medical condition which limits his ability to continue his
duties at this time. The Board of ADX supports Paul taking the necessary time to focus on his health and looks
forward to welcoming him back in the near future.
During Paul’s absence ADX will strengthen its local team in Austria with a highly experienced geotechnical
manager, and has engaged a highly qualified, experienced Board advisor, as well as a highly credentialed
communications advisor.

and M&A experience as well as management oversight to our team in Vienna.
Board Advisor: John Begg (Australia)

commercialisation of numerous oil and gas fields in Australia, North Africa, SE Asia and California. During his

support required to prioritise his recovery. While Paul’s absence is regrettable ADX has access to highly
