MEG Energy Corp. reports that co-founder Dave Wizinsky will step down from the corporation's Board of Directors effective May 7, 2015, after serving for 16 years with the company.

'Dave came in as a founding investment partner when oil was about $12 a barrel and MEG was just a vision,' said Bill McCaffrey, founder, President and Chief Executive Officer. 'As part of a larger team, he contributed to several landmark financings and the growth of the company as we turned that vision into a reality.'

Prior to MEG, Mr. Wizinsky was a co-founder of an S&P/TSX 60 Index and London Stock Exchange listed resource company and a corporate commercial and securities lawyer experienced in all aspects of large-scale resource development and commercial production, debt and equity financings, regulatory affairs and corporate social responsibility.
