brings with it a wealth of valuable experience to STV. His keen interest in

detailed understanding of the challenges faced by small cap businesses will be
of benefit to us. Colin is a very strong addition to our board at an exciting
time of growth for the company."

strategy. I look forward to working with my fellow board members and STV
