Death of Non-Executive Chairman

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of EPE Special Opportunities Limited ("ESO" or the "Company") is sad to announce the death of Geoffrey Vero, the Company's Chairman. The Board wishes to extend its deepest sympathies to his family and friends.

Mr Vero was appointed Chairman of ESO in 2006 and has made an invaluable contribution to the Company, leading it through the financial crisis of 2008 and a number of significant and complex corporate transactions.

Under Mr Vero's stewardship, the Company has grown and flourished, benefitting at all times from his integrity and considerable expertise as a chartered accountant, businessman and investor. The Board wishes to acknowledge the many years of support Mr Vero has given ESO, his fellow Directors, the shareholders and the Investment Advisor, and express its gratitude for his outstanding leadership of the Company.

A board meeting has been convened for next week to appoint a new Chairman.

The person responsible for releasing this information on behalf of the Company is Hilary Jones of R&H Fund Services (Jersey) Limited.
