Board Succession
In light of two of the three Board directors having served for at least nine
years a process is underway to refresh its configuration. In order to ensure
an orderly Board succession plan, this process is anticipated to be completed
within six months. The Board remains mindful of its fiduciary duties to all
shareholders including its commitment to focus on minimising costs
appropriately.
As a first stage of this orderly transition, Sean Hurst had notified the
Company of his intention to step-down from his position prior to the AGM with
immediate effect. The Board and Manager would like to thank Sean for his
valuable contribution during his time as Chair and wish him all the best in
his future endeavours.
Tony Dalwood has been appointed Chair with immediate effect to oversee the
succession plan. Trina Le Noury remains Chair of the Audit committee.
The appointment of additional Non-Executive Directors is progressed and,
subject to completion of the relevant regulatory approvals, at least one new
Director will join the Board shortly. A further update will be provided in due
course.
