Board changes

SRT Marine Systems plc, the provider of maritime tracking, management and surveillance technologies, products and integrated system solutions for ports, waterways, fisheries and coast guards, announces the following changes to evolve and strengthen the Company's Board of Directors to reflect and support SRT's future growth, particularly the implementation of multiple projects simultaneously.

Simon Rogers, current Non-Executive Chairman of the Company, is to step down as Chairman but remain on the Board as a Non-Executive Director. Kevin Finn will join SRT as Non-Executive Chairman. As a pre-flotation investor in the company and after almost 12 years as a Non-Executive Director, Andrew Lapping will stand down from the Board in order to spend more time on his other interests. We would like to thank Andrew for his contribution and commitment to the Group throughout his tenure and wish him well in his future endeavours. These Board changes are all made concurrently and with immediate effect.

These Board changes are being made to provide more relevant and intensive support to the management team as the business matures with the challenges of simultaneously delivering multiple complex projects in different countries.

Kevin is a highly respected international businessman with significant strategic and operational experience of complex businesses. His experience in the automotive industry brings significant expertise and knowledge in respect of strategies for managing complex product supply chains, the operation of large dealer networks, big data systems, M&A and negotiation of complex international contracts, all of which are skills that will be highly relevant to SRT's business.

Commenting on these Board changes, Simon Rogers, SRT Marine Systems, stated:

"SRT is now in a growth phase and these changes will provide the management team with greater support and more relevant experience for the challenges and opportunities we now face. I am delighted to welcome Kevin to the Board of SRT and I am sure his wealth of real world experience of complex multi-faceted businesses with similar operational characteristics to SRT will be of considerable benefit at a time when the Company is migrating from its entrepreneurial phase to one of multiple project implementation."
