Ternium appoints new member to its Board of Directors and Audit Committee

Luxembourg, September 23, 2015 – Ternium S.A. (NYSE: TX) announced today that, following independent director Pedro Pablo Kuczynski’s resignation, the Company’s Board of Directors, acting pursuant to the powers conferred upon it by the Company’s articles of association, appointed Mr. Vincent Decalf as an independent director and a member of the audit committee to serve for the remainder of Mr. Kuczynski’s term of office, ending on the next annual general meeting of shareholders to be held on May 4, 2016.

Mr. Kuczynski, who served as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and its audit committee for the past eight years, decided to step down for personal reasons.

Mr. Decalf currently serves as a member of the board of directors of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange ( Bourse de Luxembourg ) and the Luxembourg Institute for Directors and Managers ( Institut Luxembourgeois des Administrateurs ) as well as a non-executive director of Foyer International S.A. and other private Luxembourg companies. From 1989 to 2008, Mr. Decalf held various executive positions with Société Générale and has extensive experience in the financial industry. Mr. Decalf, aged 53, is a French national. He qualifies as an independent director under the Company’s articles of association.

As a result of this change, the Company’s Board of Directors is now composed of Ubaldo Aguirre, Roberto Bonatti, Carlos Condorelli, Vincent Decalf, Adrian Lajous, Gianfelice Mario Rocca, Paolo Rocca and Daniel Agustín Novegil; and Messrs Aguirre, Decalf and Lajous (all of whom qualify as independent directors under our articles of association) compose its Audit Committee.

The Company welcomes Mr. Decalf to its Board of Directors, and thanks Mr. Kuczynski for his dedication to the Company for the past eight years and wishes him well in any new endeavors he may pursue.
