10 September 2015
Volta Finance Limited ("Volta" or "the Company") today announces that Jim
Gilligan, Chairman of the Company, has notified the Board of his intention to
step down from the Board at the Company's forthcoming AGM.
The Company, through its Nominations Committee, has previously engaged in
succession planning and the other Board members have come to the view that Paul
Meader, current Senior Independent Director of the Company, has the qualities,
expertise and relevant experience required to take over as Chairman. Mr Meader
has agreed to succeed Mr Gilligan as Chairman and, accordingly, the Board will
be proposing at the AGM that Paul Meader takes over as Chairman of Volta from
that date and Mr Meader will be putting himself forward for re-election by
shareholders.
Mr Gilligan comments as follows "I have greatly enjoyed my 5 years as Volta
Chairman. However, as I am in my 65(th) year with a daughter and new
granddaughter in Australia, I have decided to cut back on my Non-Executive
roles. I am pleased to note that my Board colleagues have recognised the strong
contribution and expertise demonstrated by Paul Meader since he joined the Board
in May last year and would fully endorse their decision to nominate Paul Meader
as the new Chairman."
The Board has agreed that Paul Varotsis will succeed Mr Meader in the role of
Senior Independent Director.
The Company, through its Nominations Committee, has commenced a selection and
interview process to appoint a new independent non-executive director to
maintain the board composition at five independent directors once Mr Gilligan
has resigned. On successful completion of this process the Company will make
the appropriate announcement of the new appointee.
