RNS Announcement - Jersey Electricity Plc - Directorate Change

Jersey Electricity plc ("the Company") announces the intention to extend the
term of Mr Phil Austin MBE for a further year. Mr Austin has served on the
Board since 2016 and thus this extension of his appointment will exceed the
nine-year period referenced in prevailing corporate governance standards. The
Board has reviewed the Chair's independence and effectiveness and is satisfied
that Mr Austin continues to contribute independent leadership and significant
expertise. The Board supports his re-election for a further year, on the basis
that this remains in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders,
to allow for strategic continuity. The Chair's reappointment will be subject
to re-election at the Annual General Meeting, and the Board will continue to
keep this matter under active review.

At the same time, the Company announces that, following completion of his
nine-year term, Mr Tony Taylor will resign from the Board at the quarterly
board meeting on 03 September 2026. In preparedness, Mr Paul Savery, who
joined the Board on 01 December 2025, will become a Member of the Audit and
Risk Committee and the Nominations Committee, with effect from 04 March 2026,
to allow for a shadow period
