    APPOINTMENT OF NEW DIRECTOR
    
    The Board of Directors of Smiths City Group Limited (SCY) is pleased to
    announce that Mr Luke Bunt has been appointed as an independent non-executive
    Director of the company.
    
    Luke has a strong background in retail, property and finance. Since 2012 he
    has been a professional Director and in the previous 10 years was Group CFO
    and Head of Property for national retailer The Warehouse Group, and Chairman
    of the Warehouse Financial Services consumer finance joint venture.   Prior
    to that he held senior finance, operating and development roles with DB Group
    and Feltex Carpets.
    
    He will bring to our Board not only a strong knowledge of retailing, consumer
    finance and property, particularly in the Auckland market, but valuable
    experience in strategic planning.  Luke takes the director vacancy left when
    Mr John Holdsworth retired from the Board.
    
    Mrs Sarah Ottrey, who was appointed in 2010, has retired from the Board.   In
    her time with us she provided invaluable guidance in marketing and branding
    as well as operational sales areas.   Her marketing experience and insights
    were a great contribution at the Board table.  The Board wishes her all the
    best for the future.   The Board would look to find a replacement for Sarah
    in the next few months.
    
    In welcoming the new Director to the Board, Craig Boyce, Chairman said
    "Smiths City is very pleased to be able to appoint a Director in Mr Bunt who
    not only meets all the criteria we determined a year ago as required to
    complete the Directors skills and experience, but will also bring strong
    strategic and retail insights to the Board.  I personally would like to thank
    Sarah for bringing her vibrant personality to the Board table and for her
    knowledge and experience in marketing and branding so valuable for our Board.
    "
