Directorate Change

21st Century Technology plc (AIM: C21), announces that Nick Grimond has resigned his position as Chief Executive for personal reasons and will leave the company on 28 September 2012.

Wilson Jennings will take over as Managing Director of the Group's main trading company with immediate effect and as Group CEO from the date of Nick's departure. Wilson has been an Executive Director of the board for over 12 years and is currently Group Finance Director. For some time Wilson's role has also embraced many of the responsibilities of managing director in the UK, while Nick has focussed on developing international sales opportunities. The Company intends to recruit additional sales resource to provide direction and support to the Company's existing UK and International sales teams.

The Board remains committed to the future of 21st Century and its shareholders and is focused on creating and then realising value in line with the Group strategy.

Jan Holmstrom, Chairman, said:

"On behalf of the Board I would like to thank Nick for his contribution as CEO over the last seven years in repositioning the business to focus on public transport monitoring systems and the more recent expansion in mainland Europe.

"The Board is delighted Wilson has agreed to take over the role as CEO. Throughout 21st Century's evolution Wilson has provided significant strategic input as well as negotiating new business contracts in the UK and overseas. Wilson is well known and respected by our staff, customers and suppliers and we are confident of a seamless transition into this role and continued momentum in the business going forward."
