Noventa Limited
("Noventa" or the "Company")
Annual General Meeting Result & Change of Directors
30 June 2010
All resolutions proposed at today's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") were passed.
Following the approval received from the Company's shareholders, the previously announced conditional placing of 15,469,464 new ordinary 0.04p shares (the "New Shares") is now unconditional and the New Shares will be allotted today. An application has been made for the New Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM with effect from 1 July 2010. The total raised by the Company through the issue of the New Shares and the unconditional placing announced earlier this month is circa $2.1m at the prevailing exchange rates.
Mr. Peter Cox did not stand for re-election at the AGM and is therefore no longer a Director of the Company.
Mr. John Allan retired as CEO of the Company at the AGM but remains on the Board as a Non-Executive Director, and as a consultant to the Company.
Mr. Patrick Lawless has moved from COO to CEO of the Company following the AGM.
Chairman Eric Kohn TD commented:
"Mr Peter Cox today retires as a director of the Company and is not standing for re-election. I would like to express my thanks to him for his contribution to the Company over the last year and wish him every success in the future.
Mr John Allan also retires as Chief Executive Officer with effect from today, although he remains on the Board as a Non-Executive Director and consultant to the Company. I would also like to thank John for his efforts and a more than significant contribution in moving the Company forward over the last year. I also wish his successor, Mr Patrick Lawless, who is in attendance here today, every success in his new role as CEO of the Company."
