PER HALLBERG:
Thank you. I believe the greatest gift you can ever give or get in life is to live, work and grow up among people that believe in you. Then you can do basically anything. So, I just wanted to thank my family in Sweden and all my friends. And Icon Productions, Paramount Studios, Karen Baker and the great crew at Soundelux that put this all together for us. Thank you.

LON BENDER:
I'd like to thank my friends and family, and especially my partner Wylie Stateman and the staff of Soundelux whose commitment to excellence has made this possible. This award is emblematic of the struggle of people everywhere to achieve something special in their working lives, and it's an honor to that devotion. And I'd like to thank everyone involved with this picture.
