Just Energy CEO Taking Immediate Leave of Absence for Health Reasons

(“Just Energy” or the “Company”) (NEX:JE.H; OTC:JENGQ), a retail provider specializing in electricity and natural gas commodities and bringing energy efficient solutions and renewable energy options to customers, today announced that Scott Gahn, its Chief Executive Officer, will be taking an immediate leave of absence for health reasons. The Just Energy Board of Directors has appointed Michael Carter, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as interim President and Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.
