Board Changes and Appointment of Broker

 

Following receipt of written resolutions from shareholders holding approximately 81 per cent of the issued shares in the Company, Michael Langoulant and John Treacy have been appointed as Directors to the Company with immediate effect. In addition, David Hunter, John Chapman, Craig McMurray and David Saville have all stepped down from the Board, again with immediate effect.

 

Mr Langoulant, an Australian resident, is a Chartered Accountant with over 30 years' experience in public company corporate administration and fundraising. After 10 years with large international accounting firms he has acted as chairman, finance director, CFO, company secretary and non-executive director with a number of publicly listed companies. In conjunction with serving in those positions he has managed a corporate secretarial and accounting services business for almost 25 years. He is currently Executive Chairman of White Cliff Minerals Limited (ASX:WCN).

 

Mr Treacy is a London-based experienced small cap financier who specialises in working with growing companies. He qualified as a solicitor in the London office of a major international law firm where he specialised in Capital Markets and Mergers & Acquisitions. From there he moved to practice corporate finance in the advisory teams of several prominent UK brokerages where he acted as an adviser to a number of AIM companies and advised on numerous IPOs, acquisitions, debt restructurings and placings.

 

Following the termination of the appointment of the Company's former nominated adviser ('Nomad') and broker, announced on 2 May 2018, the Company's shares were suspended from trading on AIM pursuant to AIM Rule 1.

 

The Board of the Company is pleased to announce that it has today appointed Peterhouse Corporate Finance Limited as its Corporate Broker with immediate effect.

The company was subsequently liquidated. Although the Statutory Manager made some negative comments concerning the administration of the company neither the Statutory Manager nor the liquidator levelled any case of wrong doing against Mr Langoulant. Further at a subsequent trial in relation to the company's Australian subsidiary, Robregal Investment Pty Ltd, the trial judge determined that Mr Langoulant had no case to answer.

 

There is no further information to be disclosed in relation to Mr Langoulant's appointment pursuant to AIM Rule 17 or paragraph (g) of Schedule Two of the AIM Rules for Companies.
