PRESS RELEASE FROM DYMOCKS

Appointment of Operations Executive New Zealand

From the 1st August 2009 Anne Whelan will assume responsibility for all activities of the Dymocks network in New Zealand. Anne has provided important support services to the business over the past few months while we transition our support services. We recognize the need to continue to have experienced and book centric support on site and we believe this multi award winning bookseller to be the best in New Zealand to do so.

Anne will be working closely with our Australian support staff as we focus on the needs of our stores and the growth of the network. Of critical importance to you is that Anne will be responsible for co-ordinating front-list product communication to all Stores and also for managing the Dymocks Group Buy processes for New Zealand.

Anne can be contacted by phone on 09 522 3343, by email at anne.whelan@dymocks.co.nz or by mail at Dymocks Newmarket, 241 Broadway Newmarket.

I look forward to your continued ongoing support for our New Zealand Franchise Owners.
