Senior Management Changes

Blackpearl Group Limited (NZX: BPG) announces that Jean Arlove has made the
decision to step down from his role as Chief Financial Officer due to health-related
reasons.
Jean will continue to support BPG in a transitional capacity for the next three months
and may remain involved on a contractual basis thereafter.
Effective immediately, Jean will transition into the role of Financial Advisor. To ensure
continuity and stability, Karen Cargill – who played a pivotal role as CFO during BPG’s
public listing and has most recently served as Chief Governance Officer – has been
appointed Interim CFO.
The team is working to ensure this transition is seamless, supported by Karen’s expertise
and experience within the Company and Jean’s continued support.
