Stefanie Kahle-Galonske will be proposed to the next ordinary Shareholders' Meeting by the Board of Directors to be elected as a Board member of Micronas. Mrs. Kahle-Galonske, a German citizen who lives in Switzerland, has been Vice President & CFO of Markem Imaje (Dover Corporation), Geneva, a global business unit involved in industrial automation, since March 2013.
