chartered management accountant, Mr White was a member of the team involved with
the successful flotation of HEC and has recently overseen the implementation of

installed in all 213 of Choices stores. Prior to joining HEC, he held senior
financial and company secretarial positions across a range of retail and
multi-site service groups.

Maybrice Management Limited, Bremward Limited and 1st Class Leisure (Properties)
Limited. Sportsworld (GB) Plc was placed into administration in 2000. 1st Class
