The Board believes that the Restructuring is appropriate to streamline the Group's management to take the Group through its next stage of development. The Restructuring will also strengthen the Group's compliance with the Combined Code on Corporate Governance. Accordingly, the Company announces that Mr Graham Cole, Mr Bob Thornton, Mr Trevor Applin and Mr Paul Ashton will be stepping down from the PLC Board at the conclusion of the AGM. As reported at the recent preliminary results, Mr Paul Gourmand will also be stepping down, retiring as Non-executive Chairman at the conclusion of the AGM. As a result, Mr Mike Wheeler will be appointed as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board to succeed Mr Paul Gourmand and Mr Steve Smith will be joining the Board with immediate effect as Interim Finance Director. Mike Wheeler (aged 58), is a qualified Chartered Accountant and former Global Managing Partner of Advisory Services at KPMG. He has provided strategic advice to a very wide range of companies around the world. Formerly Senior Adviser and Non-executive Chairman of Close Brothers Corporate Finance, Mike Wheeler is currently a Non-executive director of the Department of Health and Chairman of the Audit Committee of Dubai Holdings. Stephen Smith (aged 56) is a Chartered Management Accountant, a Fellow of the Association of Corporate Treasurers and a Member of the Institute for Turnaround who, since 1995, has operated as an independent consultant, non-executive director and interim manager on an international basis for a number of different companies. Trevor Applin, currently Finance Director of the Group, will be stepping down from the PLC Board to become Chief Operating Officer on the Management Board, which has responsibility for the day to day operations of the Group. To allow Trevor to concentrate on this role, Stephen Smith will assume the Finance Director's responsibilities on an interim basis until a new full time Finance Director is appointed. Paul Ashton and Bob Thornton will also be stepping down from the PLC Board to the Management Board.
