Board Changes
The Board of Directors of BPC Limited advises that as a consequence of having
migrated its tax regime to Jersey, as it conducts no business activities in the
UK and all of its petroleum activities are in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas,
the opportunity has arisen to reduce costs by a reduction in the number of
directors and in streamlining the overhead structure by staff reductions. As a
result, effective 1 April 2009, two non-executive directors, Robert Carroll from
Australia and Timothy Jones from the UK are resigning and the Board wishes to
thank them for their great contribution.
The remaining non-executive directors are Mark Savage and Michael Proffitt who
will make up the Audit and Remuneration Committees. Michael Proffitt has been
appointed Finance Director. Alan Burns, Michael Proffitt and Mark Savage will
comprise the Nomination Committee. The non-executive directors have agreed to
waive their annual directors fees in full until further notice and Alan Burns
has agreed to reduce his annual set fee from GBP100,000 to USD50,000. The
Company's working capital position is satisfactory.
Following these changes, the board is now as follows:
Alan Burns (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer)
Paul Crevello (Chief Operating Officer)
Michael Proffitt (Finance Director, Non-Executive)
Mark Savage (Non-Executive)
The Company is focused on its Bahamas project. Further technical work is
progressing and farmout negotiations are continuing.
