Petards Group plc ("Petards" or the "Company"), the AIM quoted developer of 
advanced security and surveillance systems, announces that it has appointed 
Osman Abdullah (aged 64) as a non-executive director to the Board with effect 
from 30 September 2010. 
 
Osman Abdullah is a representative of Water Hall Group plc which owns 29.99 per 
cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.  He does not beneficially 
own any ordinary shares in Petards. 
 
Osman Abdullah has no other current directorships. He was a non-executive

over that period. 
 
There are no other disclosures required in accordance with Schedule 2(g) of the 
AIM Rules. 
Commenting on Mr Abdullah's appointment, Petards Chairman Tim Wightman said 
"Since Water Hall Group plc significantly increased its investment in Petards in 
June 2010 we have been exploring with them how they might best assist us in 
achieving our strategy.  I am therefore pleased to welcome Osman to the Petards' 
Board and look forward to working with him in developing the Group's potential. 
 Osman has considerable commercial experience across a wide range of industrial 
and supply chain management businesses as well as extensive contacts in the 
Middle East in particular in Saudi Arabia."
