In the press release, Jones Soda said, <blockquote><em>Jones Soda Co. today announced that Peter van Stolk will step down from his position as chairman of the board of directors and as chief executive officer at the end of the year. He will remain on as a member of the board of directors. Board members Scott Bedbury and Steve Jones will take on the interim positions of chairman and CEO respectively while the company conducts a search for a new CEO.</em></blockquote>The move comes after a tough year for Jones Soda complete with a huge decline in share price and outrage and a short-lived SEC investigation of insider trading by members of the company's board of directors. Before investors get too excited about van Stolk's departure, they should read what the company said about him in its 10-K filed on March 14th:<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/12/06/jones-soda-loses-its-founder-visionary/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Jones Soda loses its founder/visionary</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/12/06/jones-soda-loses-its-founder-visionary/">Jones Soda loses its founder/visionary</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Thu, 06 Dec 2007 17:25:00 EST.
