("Westminster" the "Company" or the "Group")

Result of AGM, Appointment of Finance Director, and

Proposed introduction of LTIP

 

Westminster Group Plc, the AIM listed supplier of system solutions and products to the security, defence, fire protection and safety markets worldwide, is pleased to announce that all resolutions put to shareholders at today's annual general meeting (AGM) were duly passed.

 

At the AGM, Westminster announced the appointment of Ian Selby as Finance Director, commencing in the role on 1 July 2011. Mr Selby will replace Nick Mearing-Smith, who has served in the role since February 2007 and will step down on 30 June 2011.

 

Ian Selby, aged 44, is a Chartered Accountant with significant board level experience of working with private and listed SME's. He was previously the Group Finance Director of Zenith Hygiene Group plc where he was instrumental in executing a successful trade sale, and previously he was the CFO of Corero plc, a software company. He has extensive experience including M&A, fundraising, working capital improvements, debt renegotiation and operational financial management. Earlier in his career he held international finance roles, including emerging markets in Halliburton Inc, Sybase Inc and Micro Focus plc. He qualified as a Chartered Accountant with Coopers and Lybrand Deloitte and holds a degree in Physics from the University of Birmingham.

 

 

Commenting on the appointment, Peter Fowler, Chief Executive at Westminster, said:

 

"Firstly, I would like to thank Nick for his support over the past four years. He has been with Westminster over a period of significant development, including our flotation on AIM and we wish him well with his future endeavours.

 

"Secondly, I would like to welcome Ian to the team. He has significant experience of operating in international markets and guiding high growth businesses through the inevitable growing pains."

 

 

It is the Board's intention to adopt a long term incentive plan ("LTIP") during the second half of 2011 to allow employees and directors of the Group to be granted awards in respect of ordinary shares in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). It is intended that the maximum number of Ordinary Shares issuable under the LTIP by the Company would not exceed 10 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital. It is proposed that the powers of the Board to grant awards of Ordinary Shares under the LTIP would be operated through, and on the recommendation of, the Remuneration Committee.

 

In accordance with Schedule 2 paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules, the Company announces the following information in respect of Ian Selby's current and past directorships.

Mr Selby was a director of the following companies during the past 5 years:
