ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

22 May 2018

APPOINTMENT OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Devine Limited today announced the appointment of John Campbell as Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director effective 9 July 2018.

Mr Campbell has held senior executive roles within CIMIC Group's Leighton Properties, most recently responsible for delivering the company's residential and mixed-use development projects in Queensland.

Mr Campbell succeeds Andrew Cooper, who will leave Devine in July to work with CIMIC Group.

Devine Chairman David Robinson said: "With more than 27 years' experience in the construction and development sectors, including leading large scale residential and mixed-use developments, John has the right expertise to lead Devine during our next phase.

"I would like to express my thanks to Andrew for his contribution to Devine during recent years. Under his leadership, Devine succeeded in reducing debt and its cost base, securing longer-term funding, completing the wind-down of non-performing businesses and finalising a number of contractual claims.

"This is a natural transition, and I am confident in John's ability to guide the business in coming years."

Mr Campbell joins Devine from today and will transition into the role of Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director on 9 July, following a handover period. Mr Cooper will depart Devine in early July and will continue to be available to the business, as required, during July and August.

Mr Campbell's biography and a summary of the key terms of his employment are provided in the appendix.
