Both Tim and Gavin are seasoned industry leaders with extensive backgrounds in corporate financial management and proven success in delivering results.” "We are cooperating fully with regulators in the antitrust clearance process and continue to prepare for the transaction to close by mid-2008, following regulatory clearance.

"Tim Wolf will lead the integration process and the disciplined delivery of the $500 million integration synergy goal,” said Kiely.

During his more than thirteen years at Coors and Molson Coors, Tim and our team have driven a 16-fold increase in the value of the company.
