Director Appointment


Transense is pleased to announce the appointment of David Michael
Ford, aged 53, to its board as a non-executive director with
immediate effect.
David qualified as a solicitor in 1980. He specialised in
Intellectual Property (IP) law. In the late 1980's he dealt with the
acquisition by his firm, Tarlo Lyons, of the entire consumer debt
recovery department of HSBC and negotiated a long term contract to
deal with all branch consumer debt. In 1990 he became the firm's
first Managing Partner. In 1993 he left the firm to move into a
general business environment.  Since then he has been involved with a
variety of companies in various industries in a non-executive or
semi-executive capacity.  In 1998 he led the management buyout of the
consumer debt recovery department of his old firm, Tessera Group, and
is still the non-executive chairman of that company. In 2006 he
established a company specialising in email encryption, Securecoms,
which he still heads. It numbers HSBC among its shareholders and is
the only non-banking/finance related direct investment ever made by
HSBC.

David Kleeman, Transense Chairman commented:

"We are delighted to welcome David onto the Transense board.  He
brings considerable expertise in IP law, which is invaluable to the
Company as we look to develop our family of patents. I look forward
to working closely with David as we continue to grow the Transense
business, and our new wholly-owned subsidiary, Translogik."
