Beverly Sharpe and David Solomon Join Oxford Performance Materials, Inc. Advisory Board

1/20/04

Beverly Shape and David Solomon, who have served as senior executives at Ticona with extensive mergers and acquisitions, corporate development and finance experience, have agreed to join the Oxford Performance Materials, Inc. (OPM) advisory board.

“I am honored to join the advisory board of OPM, a highly innovative company leading the development of ultra-high performance polymer technologies,” said Ms. Sharpe. “OPM’s OXPEKK® polymer technologies allow their customers to solve problems and develop solutions well beyond the capability of conventional thermoplastics. I have followed the development of OPM for some time and am confident that the vision of the management, characteristics of the products and diversification of the pipeline are on track for OPM to meet, or even exceed, its stated goals.”

“In addition to directing the business development activities of Ticona, Ms. Sharpe has been extensively involved in the growth and maturation of high performance polymers businesses through her positions on the boards of Polyplastics, Fortron Industries and Korea Engineering Plastics, and therefore has insights to the challenges and opportunities that we are confronted with”, said Scott DeFelice, President of OPM. “Ms. Sharpe shares OPM’s vision of creating a world class polymer business and her experience, skills and contacts will be invaluable as we pursue this objective.”

“Mr. Solomon has extensive executive financial operating and M&A experience and has a finely tuned sense of both the value of an enterprise like OPM and the bottom line financial demands that need to be met in order to succeed,” said Scott DeFelice, “his sage advice and council are truly a rare commodity and we are honored to have his participation.”

Founded in March 2000, OPM has rapidly become an industry leader in the ultra-high performance thermoplastic polymers market. The firm's versatile OXPEKK® polymers are currently being used in space and defense, medical, semiconductor, and industrial markets worldwide. For additional information, contact info@oxfordpm.com.
