Directorate Change


FuturaGene PLC

FuturaGene Plc ("FuturaGene" or "the Company")

Directorate Change

Following the completion of an internal review, announced on 23 November 2005,
it is with regret that the Board of FuturaGene announces that it has terminated
the appointment of the Group Chief Executive, Bruno Ruggiero with immediate
effect.

Kannan Grant will continue to discharge the responsibilities of Chief Executive,
and a further announcement about a permanent appointment will be made in due
course.

The board also announces the appointment of Peter Anthony Toynton FCA, age 62,
as a non-executive director. Peter brings to the Board both his financial
expertise and a wide business experience of growing and quoted companies. He has
held appointments as Group Finance Director of Tempus Group plc and was
non-executive chairman of Poulter Group Limited, SBS Group PLC (SBS), and a
non-executive Director of Tempus Group PLC. He is currently a director of
Redfern Gallery Limited and Heritage Galleries Limited.

His appointment strengthens the resources and capabilities of the Board and
reflects the company's future development plans.

Joint Administrative Receivers of SBS were appointed on 19th September 2003. On
10th March 2004 the Receivers resigned and at SBS' EGM held on the same day,
SBS' shareholders approved the directors' proposal that SBS enter into a Company
Voluntary Arrangement in which creditors received new shares in SBS Group plc in
settlement of any debt due to them.

Save for the above, there are no other disclosures to be made in respect of the
appointment of Mr Toynton under rule 17 and under Schedule 2 paragraph (g) of
the AIM rules.

Old news. Though i see harry's point. We don;t know why he was suspended, investigated and then sacked. Must be gross misconduct but what, and what is the effect of it on the company?

yes -- its looks very much like this ex chief officers family holding has now been placed -- -- he was sacked -for a non -fraudelant activity -- thats all i know leader - i am 100 % on that snippet and the recent share price weakness that has dogged this company shares -- the shares are now a strong recovery imho -- i bought more today as i can see these back above 100p soon \o/ -

[leadersoffice] 15/3/2006 13:11

I would like to know what was the nature of his suspension and then sacking...what did he do or not do. As shareholders we have a right to know.

I really hope we see some strength in the share price ..it has been awful of late...just awful

Futuragene sacks chief executive Bruno Ruggiero
LONDON (AFX) - FuturaGene PLC, which develops environmentally friendly
solutions that enable
plants to grow in harsh conditions, said that following an internal review,
announced on Nov 23 last year the board has now terminated the appointment of
the group chief executive, Bruno Ruggiero with immediate effect.
After his suspension on Nov 23, Kannan Grant took on the chief executive
responsibilities and the company said he will continue in this role until a
permanent appointment is made.

i hear that this guys family holdings are still depressing the share price -- once this gets placed into safe hands -- these shares should then rally strongly --

[dymaxion] 14/3/2006 15:03

dodddy are you there mate?? Long time...
drop me an email if so... email at spencergoh dot com

[harry punter] 13/3/2006 15:08

not sure if to pay 55p or wait -they may come at 45p ---

[harry punter] 13/3/2006 15:06

its very painfull at the moment -- but this is purely technical --soon as the seller is out -- this will sharply rally

[harry punter] 13/3/2006 14:41

yep -- not very clever at the moment --it turms very quickly this stock

[greggg] 13/3/2006 14:38

Certainly looks cheap to me!

[harry punter] 13/3/2006 14:33

man is a only spread betting nominee account --its not really relevant imho -- i think a huge seller is still overhanging the market -- need to be patient -

[greggg] 13/3/2006 14:27

OK, what goes on here ... what with Man building, why the continued fall??

[harry punter] 13/3/2006 14:24

getting cheaper and cheaper --- mmmmmm time to buy soon

[harry punter] 11/3/2006 11:09

no-one every suggested this was a short term punt -- i am very happy to hold and add soon -- these shares are very cheap at these levels --

[pugugly] 10/3/2006 13:35

And yet more dilution. That is apparently 3 million out of the 29 million potential overhang gone - Just another 26 million still pending.

[stewjames] 09/3/2006 17:42

That's the original holders in Futuragene, not OND (or whatever the shell was called).

[stewjames] 09/3/2006 17:39

I don't think so. The vendors were the original shareholders in Futuragene prior to the reverse takeover.

[leadersoffice] 09/3/2006 17:17

The vendors???
Are we getting more shares??
