MICHAEL JACKSON STEPS DOWN AS DIRECTOR OF
EMI GROUP PLC DUE TO CONFLICT OF INTERESTS
8th May 2002
LONDON, 8 MAY 2002 – In compliance with paragraph 16.7 of the Listing Rules, EMI today announces that Michael Jackson resigned as a non-executive director of EMI Group plc with effect from 7 May 2002 to avoid a potential conflict of interests. This follows the acquisition by Vivendi Universal of USA Networks’ USA Entertainment division, where Jackson was president and CEO, the completion of which was announced in the USA at 19:07 Eastern Standard Time on 7 May 2002.
Jackson joined the EMI board as a non-executive director in October 1999 when he was chief executive of UK television broadcaster Channel 4. He was appointed president and CEO of USA Entertainment last year. When the Vivendi Universal/USA Networks agreement was announced in December 2001, Jackson and the rest of the EMI board agreed that he should resign when the deal was completed and he became chairman of Universal TV.
Eric Nicoli, chairman of EMI Group said: “I’m sorry that circumstances necessitate Michael’s early departure from the board. We will miss his wise counsel and incisive thinking. I thank him for his contribution.”
EMI expects to appoint a new non-executive director in the near future.
