Iris Energy Limited announced the retirement of its President, Lindsay Ward. Lindsay joined Iris Energy as President in October 2021 to assist with the build out of the Company's initial growth projects in North America and to enhance the Company's operational capability. During that time, the team successfully completed the expansion to 160MW of data center capacity across British Columbia at Canal Flats (30MW), Prince George (50MW) and Mackenzie (80MW), all on or ahead of schedule.

Having supported Iris Energy's first phase of growth post listing, Lindsay is retiring as part of his transition away from a full-time executive career to pursue additional Non-Executive Director opportunities. Lindsay will remain with the Company until June 30, 2023 to assist with energization of the Company's 600MW site at Childress, Texas and to provide general support to the business. Following this date, Lindsay and the Company may explore ways in which Lindsay can continue to work with the business in a non-executive capacity.
