Directorate Change - Holding Announcement

Computacenter plc, the independent provider of IT infrastructure services and solutions, today announces that it has been formally notified by John Ormerod of his intention to step down from his current position as a Non-Executive Director of the Board of Directors (the 'Board') and the Chairman of the Company's Audit Committee by no later than the date of the Company's Annual General Meeting in 2015.

Mr Ormerod was appointed to each of these positions on 31 October 2006. Therefore, by the time of the Company's Annual General Meeting in 2015, Mr Ormerod would be approaching nine years of service on the Board, following which he would no longer be considered to be an 'independent' Non-Executive Director under the terms of the UK Corporate Governance Code.

As a result of this notification by Mr Ormerod, the Company will now commence a process to recruit a new Non-Executive Director, who is also expected to chair its Audit Committee. The effective date on which Mr Ormerod will step down from the Board is contingent on the recruitment of the new Non-Executive Director and is therefore not yet known. The Company will confirm this date once it has been determined.

Note:

This announcement is made pursuant to Listing Rule 9.6.11 (2) and 9.6.12.
