Board of Directors (Appointments and Changes)

The Supervisory Board of Semperit AG Holding and the long-standing
Chief Technical Officer of the company, Richard Ehrenfeldner, have
reached a mutual agreement on terminating Ehrenfeldner's board
activity as of 15 April 2017.

As previously reported, Michele Melchiorre has gradually assumed the
tasks as CTO of Semperit AG Holding from Richard Ehrenfeldner since 1
June 2016. The transfer process has been completed now after the
closing of the agreement with Sri Trang.

Ehrenfelder joined Semperit in 1989 and has been a member of the
Management Board of Semperit AG Holding since October 2001. After
many years as CTO, Ehrenfeldner was responsible for the Medical
Sector from June 2016 to December 2016 and most recently played a
significant role in terminating almost all joint venture activities
with the Sri Trang Group. At this point, Veit Sorger, Chairman of the
Supervisory Board, would like to thank Richard Ehrenfeldner for the
long-standing cooperation.

As of 1 June 2017, the members of the Management Board of Semperit AG
Holding will therefore be Martin Füllenbach (CEO), Frank Gumbinger
(CFO) and Michele Melchiorre (CTO).
