Executive Officer, has been appointed to the role of Executive Chairman of the
Board, in addition to his role as CEO and President. Ian Macdonald, who was
previously the Independent Chairman of the Board, has been appointed to the role
of Non-Executive Chairman.


"The functions of Executive and Non-Executive roles Chairman were seen as two
very distinct roles by the Board of Directors", said Guy Nelson. "Separating the
roles between a management director and an independent director allows the
Company to maximize its leverage of the skills and experience of its leadership
team."


In accordance with the position description approved by the Board, the
Non-Executive Chairman is an independent director with particular
responsibilities for ensuring that the Board of Directors evaluates the
performance of management objectively. These responsibilities include the
responsibilities that are typically associated with a Lead Director position.
