It was reported in the Company's interim results on 29 September 2006 that
Timothy Maltin would step down as Chief Executive Officer and would become the
Company's Licensing Director. Mr Maltin and the Company have subsequently agreed
that Mr Maltin will become a consultant to the Company and will therefore resign
as director of the Company and all subsidiary companies and the Company
accordingly announces that all resignations were completed on 10 January 2007.

Mr Maltin will continue to be involved in the Company's licensing arrangements
and has entered into an arrangement with the Company in this regard.

Commenting on Mr Maltin's new role, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Andrew
Manders, commented "It has been a pleasure working with Tim in recent months and
I am delighted that Tim has agreed to continue to help us with ongoing licensing
arrangements.  The Hardy Amies brand owes a huge debt to Tim Maltin.  I doubt
the brand would have survived the death of its founder were it not for the
tremendous efforts of Tim in recent years".
