Uscom New Non-Executive Board Appointment

SYDNEY, Australia, Tuesday 23[rd] August 2018: Uscom Limited (ASX code: UCM) (the Company or Uscom ) announced the appointment of Brett Crowley as Non-executive Director of the Board of Directors of Uscom Limited. Mr Crowley will replace Sheena Jack who retires after 6 years on the Board.

Mr Crowley is a practicing solicitor and a former Partner of Ernst & Young in Hong Kong and Australia, and of KPMG in Hong Kong, and has worked in China establishing and managing a JV company there. Mr Crowley is an experienced chairman, finance director and company secretary of ASX-listed companies, and is a former Senior Legal Member of the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal. He has been the Uscom Secretary for the last 2 years.

Mr Crowley has over 30 years’ experience, including China, advising companies on taxation, corporate strategy, international structuring, capital raising and commercial negotiations, and joins Mr Christian Bernecker and Rob Phillips on the Uscom Board.

Mr Crowley replaces Ms Sheena Jack, who has resigned as Uscom Non-executive Director after 6 years, to focus on her new role as CEO of HCF, one of Australia’s largest Private Health Fund and Life Insurance Organisations.

Uscom CEO Associate Professor Rob Phillips said: “Uscom’s philosophy of employing a small and quality management team continues with the appointment of Mr Brett Crowley, our new Non-executive Director. Brett has corporate and operational experience in China and Hong Kong where he both lived and worked, and his international corporate secretarial experience is invaluable. Ms Sheena Jack’s new role as CEO of HCF is a demanding one. Her insightful and experienced input to Uscom over the last 6 years steered the company through two acquisitions and expansion into global operations, and set us on a strategic growth trajectory. On behalf of the Board and all Uscom shareholders we express our thanks for her contribution and wish her well.”
