Eesti Post                    NEWS RELEASE                      02/04/2004



MANAGEMENT BOARD EXTENDED BY ONE MEMBER



The supervisory board of AS Eesti Post elected Jaan Tuul, the former

managing director of the Tallinn Main Post Office, as the fourth management

board member of the company to take office on 1 February. Tuul will also

head the office management service which supervises the activities of the

managing directions of all the main post offices.



"Tuul was one of the 56 participants in the public competition for the

managing director of Eesti Post, held last autumn. He was one of the

strongest candidates in the second round of the competition," said Jüri

Ehasalu, chairman of the supervisory board of Eesti Post. "We therefore had

no need to hold a new public competition."



Tuul has worked in the Tallinn Main Post Office since 1975, including nearly

20 years as its head. "As Tuul will essentially continue the same work in

his new post, we based our selection on his thorough knowledge of the area,"

Ehasalu added.



Jaan Tuul was born in 1946 in Tartu county. He graduated from the Tallinn

Polytechnical Institute as a radio mechanic in 1965 and the Leningrad

Communications Institute as an engineer and economist in 1983. He is married

and the father of two.



From 1 February, the Tallinn Main Post Office will be headed by Jaan

Vainult, the former managing director of the Kuressaare Main Post Office.
