---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Garbsen, April 11, 2017 - After having worked for LPKF for more than 30
years, Bernd Hackmann has resigned as a Supervisory Board member and Deputy
Chairman of the Supervisory Board effective July 12, 2017. Bernd Hackmann
joined the company in 1983, became a managing director in 1994, and between
1998 and 2008 he was initially the Chief Technology Officer and later the
Chief Executive Officer of LPKF Laser & Electronics AG. He was elected to
the Supervisory Board in 2012.
In taking this step, Bernd Hackmann also aims to open the way for the
intended partial reorganization of LPKF AG's Supervisory Board. The
management will thus propose to the Annual General Meeting on June 1, 2017,
that the Supervisory Board be expanded from three members to four and that
two new members be elected to the Supervisory Board. The candidates are
firstly Dr. Dirk Michael Rothweiler, CEO of First Sensor AG, and secondly
Dr. Markus Peters, Director (CFO) of DMG MORI ECOLINE Holding AG. It is
intended that Dr. Peters joins the Supervisory Board as Bernd Hackmann's
successor starting from July 13, 2017. These personnel changes are intended
to strengthen the Supervisory Board in terms of expertise. At the same time,
the aim is also to maintain a balance between renewal and continuity and
take account of the company's changed shareholder structure.
Bernd Hackmann welcomes the reorganization of the Supervisory Board and will
continue to be available to the company in an advisory capacity. The
Supervisory Board and Management Board of LPKF AG would like to thank Bernd
Hackmann for his many years of work on the Management Board and Supervisory
Board, during which he made a major contribution to the company's
development.
LPKF AG will publish further information on the new candidates for the
Supervisory Board when it convenes the Annual General Meeting.
