RESIGNATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE (CEO)

8 July 2015, Melbourne, Australia: The Board of Immuron has today announced that it has received a notice of resignation from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Dr Leearne Hinch.

While the resignation will be effective today, Dr Hinch has agreed to remain with the Company as a consultant until the end of the month to facilitate a smooth transition to new management and undertake a comprehensive handover.

The Company announced in May the appointment of Mr Peter Anastasiou as a Non-Executive Director, and in June the appointment of Dr Dan Ruben Peres as Senior Vice President of Innovation. With these two earlier appointments the Board is confident it will have the short term coverage until a new CEO can be appointed whilst ensuring continued steady growth of Travelan, and the ongoing progression of the NASH and ASH trials as planned.

Non-Executive Chairman, Dr Roger Aston said:

“The Board wishes Leearne success in her future career. The Company will now seek to recruit a new Chief Executive Officer whose primary focus will be to expand the Company’s flagship product Travelan into a truly globally available product and explore other new synergistic technologies in the hyperimmune colostrum space, whilst Dr. Peres drives the clinical trials forward.”

Immuron is also currently recruiting for two other key management positions to strengthen the management team and lead the company forward.
