Changes within GEA's Supervisory Board following new election of employee
representatives
Düsseldorf, November 3, 2016 - The new election of six employee
representatives has changed the composition of the Supervisory Board of GEA
Group Aktiengesellschaft and its Committees. Kurt-Jürgen Löw was elected
new Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board as successor to Reinhold
Siegers, who had held this position since 1998 and did not stand for re-
election on account of his plans to retire. The election of Michaela Hubert
to the control body means that five of the twelve positions on the
Supervisory Board are now held by women.
"On behalf of the entire Supervisory Board, I would like to thank Reinhold
Siegers for his long-standing commitment to GEA and his constructive
cooperation at all times," said Dr. Perlet, Chairman of the Supervisory
Board of GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft. "Kurt-Jürgen Löw, our new Deputy
Chairman, has been a member of the Supervisory Board for many years and
Michaela Hubert, a new member, has a wealth of experience as a works
councilor. I look forward to continuing the trusting working relationship
we enjoy with the employee representatives."
These personnel changes have also had an effect on the composition of the
Presiding Committee, the Audit Committee and the Mediation Committee. The
Nomination Committee has not changed. The composition of the new
Supervisory Board is available on GEA's website at gea.com.
The employee representatives were appointed by order of Düsseldorf District
Court on April 4, 2016 with a mandate to serve until the election proper of
these representatives, which has now taken place. As was decided at the
constitutive meeting of the new Supervisory Board after the AGM in April,
the composition of the group of shareholder representatives has not
changed.
