Update on Board Chair

 

On 23 May 2025, it was announced that Roy A Franklin intended to step down as Chair and as a director of the Company's Board once there was greater clarity regarding the Company's future direction. It was subsequently disclosed within the 2024 Annual Report and Financial Statements published on 30 October 2025 that Roy intended to step down from the Company's Board following the General Meeting at which the 2024 Annual Report and Financial Statements were laid before shareholders. As announced on 4 December 2025, we have made significant progress towards satisfaction of Regulatory Conditions in connection with the acquisition of the Company by Sidara Limited (the "Acquisition"). As a result of this, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company for Roy to continue to serve as Chair until either closing of the Acquisition or, if earlier, following the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company.
