SYDNEY NSW 2000 (including this page) Dear Sir
Further to the Company's 2014 Annual General Meeting, the shareholders of the Company approved a change to the Company's name from 'Commodities Group Limited' to 'Seafarms Group Limited'.
As previously advised, the directors believe the name change is in the Company's best interests as the new name better reflects the nature and strategic direction of the Company.
The Australian Securities and Investment Commission has advised the Company that the change of name has now been formally effected.
As a consequence, we now confirm the change of name and note that it will take a number of business days for the ASX to complete the change.
The ASX code will also change from 'COZ' to 'SFG' and the Company's new web site is www.seafarms.com.au.
The Company's subsidiary, formally named Seafarms Group Limited has changed its name to Seafarm
Operations Limited.
The change in strategic direction of the parent company reflected in the change of name and the recent announcement with respect to securing the land position for Project Sea Dragon has resulted in Mr Robert Bell's position as Managing Director of the Seafarms subsidiary being made redundant and it has been agreed between Mr Bell and the Group that Mr Bell will cease employment with the
Company.
The Group directors wish to take this opportunity to acknowledge Mr Bell's role in developing the Group's aquaculture aspirations to becoming Australia's largest prawn farming business and now on the cusp of becoming a global aquaculture player. The Group thanks Mr Bell for his contributions particularly in securing the land and progressing Project Sea Dragon to the development phase.
