RE: PRELIMINARY NOTICE OF MEETING

In the past few months, as a result of the financial constraints of the Federation, the
Executive Committee has been actively involved in investigating mechanisms with a view to
resolving them.

Certain issues have been identified, and steps have been introduced by the Executive
Committee to ensure that these areas are resolved and implemented as soon as possible to
ensure that the organisation is on a sound footing.

In the light of this scenario, the Executive Committee are committed to completing this work
before the Annual General Meeting. Because of the nature and the circumstances
surrounding these problems, and to ensure that the major issues are fully resolved for the
incoming Executive Committee, the Executive Committee has decided to postpone the
Annual General Meeting from 26th July to Saturday 30th August 2008, in order that this work
may be completed to an advanced level.

In as much as the date of the Annual General Meeting has been postponed, the closing date
for all nominations will remain Friday 4th July 2008.

The Executive Committee apologises for this postponement, but believe that it is in the
interest of our sport, that correct and sound action be taken.

The Executive is considering scheduling a Presidents meeting for the 26th July to discuss
some the challenges facing the organisation and how these can be addressed jointly with our
Affiliates.

Further details with regard to venue, etc, for both meetings will follow.
