STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE



DR JOHN DORAN




It is with much sadness that the Board and Staff of ROC advise that on 27 June 2008 Dr John Doran, ROC's founder and Chief Executive Officer, passed away after a short illness.


John's sensibly contrary enthusiasm, passion and charm have been the driving force behind the Company since its foundation in 1997. He will be greatly missed by ROC's Board and worldwide staff, business partners and shareholders, many of whom were known personally by John.


Our deepest sympathy and thoughts are with John's family at this tragic time.


Please direct all enquries to ROC.




Andrew Love

Chairman
