These changes will provide greater flexibility in bringing Hunter resources to customers during HMS implementations."

The Company is also pleased to announce that Dr. Konstantino Ghertsos will be rejoining the Hunter Board. Dr. Ghertsos has served as Director of Supply for Inver Energy Ltd. in Ireland and was previously a Senior Trader at MRI Trading in Switzerland. He has also held several key trading and senior executive roles in European public companies. Dr. Ghertsos holds a BSc in Oceanography and Marine Biology from the University of Southampton, a Matrisse (Master's Degree) in Marine Ecology from the University of Paris VI, & a PhD in Oceanography & a DEA in Data Analysis & Computer Modeling from the University of Lille I.

To facilitate this transition Hong Kong-based directors, Alex W H Wong and Benjamin P McQuhae have resigned. The Company wishes to thank Messrs. Wong and McQuhae for their service and wish them well in their future endeavours.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond Hunter's control and Hunter's actual results could well differ materially from those stated or implied in forward-looking statements due to many various factors.
