RM2 International S.A., the sustainable composite pallet innovator, is pleased to announce that further to the Company's announcement on 3 August 2017, Chief Executive Officer, Kevin Mazula, has been appointed to the board of directors of the Company (the "Board"). Mr Mazula replaced Mr Judd as Chief Executive Officer.

As stated in the Company's announcement on 3 August 2017, Kevin was appointed as RM2's Chief Operating Officer in April 2016 (and then Chief Executive Officer on 2 August 2017) and has over 20 years of managerial experience, having successfully run and grown businesses in a range of industries and geographies. Most recently, he was Chief Commercial Officer at PRIMUS Technologies Corp, having previously served as a Senior Vice President of Xerox Corporation, where he led global productivity and cost competitiveness initiatives for the firm. Prior to that, he was Vice President of Global Business Units at Jabil Inc, a global manufacturing services company. Kevin started his career at General Electric with leadership roles in engineering, operations, and programme management. Kevin graduated with honours from the Wharton School where he earned his MBA in International Finance. As a Lauder Fellow, he was also awarded a MA in International Studies from the University of Pennsylvania. Kevin earned his BSc degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Forfeiture of Restricted Shares, Increase in Treasury Shares and Total Voting Rights

The resignation of Mr Judd as Chief Executive Officer and from his position on the Board, led to Mr Judd forfeiting his right to the 2,500,000 restricted shares and 10,000,000 shares options in the Company that were awarded to him as announced on 11 July 2017.

Following this forfeiture, the Company's issued share capital is comprised of 407,062,656 ordinary shares of US$0.01 each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") and 134,815,771 Convertible Preferred Shares, of which 2,916,334 Ordinary Shares are held by the Company as non-voting treasury stock.

The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 538,962,093. Shareholders may use this figure of 538,962,093 as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or change their interest in, the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
