co-founder of Datacentrix from the board and retirement from the company with
effect from the end of February 2007. Says Lammers "After 20 exciting years
with the company I would like to take the opportunity to take a break and
explore other personal opportunities outside of the IT industry. I remain a
significant shareholder in Datacentrix, which is well positioned to continue its
relentless growth since listing 8 years ago."
Charl Joubert has resigned from the board with effect from 23 November 2006.
Joubert remains with the company in an executive capacity, to strengthen and
grow the ERP business. "I started the ERP division in Datacentrix and after the
early years of success, the business has failed to meet the company"s and my own
high expectations for it, and I believe it will benefit from focused attention
without the other distractions that come from being an executive at board level.
There is every prospect of this division being Datacentrix" future growth engine
and my team and I are dedicated to making this happen," says Joubert.

CA(SA), as an independent non executive director with effect from 23 November
