The Company announces that Julio Faria, Technical Director of the Company, will
step down as an executive director in December 2007 and the intention is that
he will thereafter remain on the board of Surface Transforms as a non-executive
director. Mr Faria founded the Company in 1992 together with Professor David
Clark, and, as the then managing director he first listed the Company on Ofex
in December 2000 and then on AIM in September 2003. Since August 2005 he has
occupied the role of Technical Director.

Following Mr Faria's move to non-executive director Dr Kevin Johnson and Dr.
Maria

Hadjesoteriou will head up the Company's technical development team and assume
responsibility for the ongoing development of the Company's products.

Kevin D'Silva, Chairman, commented

"Julio's early entrepreneurial vision in developing and then applying carbon
ceramic technology to braking systems was the foundation of Surface Transforms.
We are confident he will make a valuable ongoing contribution to the business
in his forthcoming new capacity as a non-executive director.
