Board Change

Eden Research plc, a leading UK agrochemical development company, is pleased to announce the appointment of Sir Ben Gill CBE as Non-Executive Chairman, effective immediately. Sir Ben, who has been on the board as Non-Executive Director of Eden since 2007, is the former President of the National Farmers' Union. Sir Ben replaces Ken Brooks who has taken on the role of Executive Deputy Chairman.

Sir Ben Gill, Non-Executive Chairman of Eden Research said:

"Following the exciting developments with a number of Eden's research products, the board of Eden has recognised the urgent need to provide additional support to the existing management team.

Food security assumes ever greater importance around the world and the need to introduce new products into the market place that meet the increasing standards of today's regulators is increasingly critical to the ability of farmers to produce the food. In this challenging context Eden is ideally placed with its emerging product portfolio to deliver key products into the market place to replace current outdated products and address new and evolving issues. As Chairman of the Company I look forward to playing my part in ensuring that Eden develops a key role in the future of UK and world crop production".

Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot.
