Paul Dunkley will replace Marcus Bolton as Managing Director Volatility in London. These appointments are with effect from 9 March 2009.

Before that he headed Tullett Liberty's Foreign Exchange Options (FXOs) and Treasury business, previous to which he ran the FXO desk at Tullett and Tokyo.

Bolton started at the Discount Corporation of New York as a Financial Futures & Options broker in 1985. He has a degree in Economics from Durham University in the United Kingdom. As CEO the Americas he will report to Chief Operating Officer ("COO") Steph Duckworth.

He will remain actively involved with the Company as a consultant and senior advisor. Scotto started his career in the inter-dealer broking business in 1993 at Liberty Brokerage, where he was a Senior Managing Director with responsibility for new business development.

He has 20 years experience in a wide range of derivatives, having served as Managing Director of Eurobrokers and a director of the Weather Exchange.

Terry Smith, CEO of Tullett Prebon plc, said "Our Americas business is one of our most valuable and, in appointing Marcus Bolton into this important role, we have ensured that there will be strong continuity in our management team in New York following Lou Scotto's time as Chief Executive Officer there. Lou was instrumental in bringing the Tullett and Prebon businesses together and the success that the company currently enjoys is the clearest and most visible evidence of the contribution he has made. I am pleased that Lou has agreed to remain with the Company as a consultant and that his knowledge and expertise remain available to us." - Ends - Enquiries: Nigel Szembel, Tullett Prebon plc +44 7802 362088 Charlotte Kirkham, M:Communications +44 207 153 1531 +44 7989 528421 About Tullett Prebon plc Tullett Prebon (www.tullettprebon.com) operates as an intermediary in wholesale financial markets facilitating the trading activities of its clients, in particular commercial and investment banks.
