The Board has also today agreed modified banking facilities with The Royal Bank of Scotland PLC, extending the group's £15 million committed facilities to December 2015 and reducing overall interest payments over the term of the facility.
David Morgan, Executive Chairman commented "Sue had previously wanted to concentrate on her role within Story but has decided that the time is right to re-join the main Board. We are all delighted to see her return."
"I am also really pleased to be able to announce the agreement of revised terms for the Group's banking facilities. The Board has been encouraged by the level of interest expressed by the banking community in providing new facilities to the missiontm but ultimately was persuaded by RBS's enthusiasm and commitment to the group. This agreement represents another positive milestone in the missiontm's progress since the restructuring and re-financing in April 2010."
