SAN ANTONIO TEXAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 2003--The CattleSale Company (EBB:CTLE) today announced that David S. Geiman has been elected President and Chief Executive Officer, effective June 15, 2003.

Mr. Geiman is the current owner of New Dominion Management, an agricultural consulting company that provides business analysis, construction management and risk and hedging program development services for large agri-business entities in the United States and Canada. In addition, he owns significant interests in contract feeder pig production facilities and a task management software company.

From 1980 until 1995 Mr. Geiman worked for Continental Grain Company, one of the top grain merchant companies in the United States. He held positions in grain merchandising, strategic planning and operations management and from 1985 until 1995, David was Senior Vice President and General Manager of Continental's Cattle Feeder Division. During this period he grew the division to the largest cattle feeder operation in the U.S., trading nearly 100,000 head of cattle per month and generating annual sales of $800-900 million.

Mr. Geiman received his undergraduate degree from George Washington University in Washington, D.C. and an MBA from the University of Virginia. He spent three years in agricultural and rural development in the Peace Corps in West Africa.

He has served on the curriculum committee for the Harvard University agribusiness seminars and has taught or consulted for several major corporations regarding the cattle industry in production or finance.
