Board Changes To Enhance Leadership as Westside Enters Next Growth Phase

Perth, Oct 25, 2013 AEST (ABN Newswire) - WestSide Corporation Limited (googlechartASX:WCL) is pleased to advise that the Board has appointed Mr Robert Neale as Chairman and Mr Mike Hughes as Managing Director of the Company, effective immediately.

Founder and former chairman Mr Angus Karoll will remain on the Board as a non-executive director. The Board thanks Mr Karoll for his contribution as Chairman over the past five years.

Mr Karoll said Mr Hughes, who joined WestSide as CEO last month, brought to the Board a broad range of skills gained while running oil and gas businesses in Asia and Australia and invaluable experience working within Queensland's emerging export CSG to LNG industry.

"Mike has a wealth of commercial, operating and project development experience which will significantly strengthen the Board's existing skill sets as we move forward with plans to sign new gas sales agreements and develop the Meridian SeamGas business," Mr Karoll said.

Mr Neale is stepping down from his role as Managing Director and CEO of New Hope Corporation Limited in January 2014. Mr Neale, who has been a Director of WestSide since early 2010, said the changes would enhance WestSide's corporate leadership at a pivotal point in the Company's development.
