Having served as Spokesman of the Management Board and Director Central
Divisions of Westag & Getalit AG since 2006, Bernhard Wenninger has decided
not to renew his contract at the end of the year and to resign from the
Management Board effective December 31, 2015.

Mr Wenninger, who has been with Westag & Getalit AG for almost 10 years,
has advised the Supervisory Board that he wishes to accept new professional
challenges elsewhere. Mr Wenninger will resign on the most amicable terms
and the Supervisory Board, having been informed of his decision at today's
meeting, very much regrets his departure.

Mr Wenninger's announced resignation means that Westag & Getalit will lose
a leader who has always demonstrated the strongest commitment to the
company's well-being and success and who has been instrumental and
effective in shaping the development of Westag & Getalit AG over the past
decade. While making every effort to sustain and improve the company's
economic success, he never lost sight of the needs of its people and its
local ties with Rheda-Wiedenbrück and Wadersloh in the Eastern Westphalia
region. The company and the Supervisory Board of Westag & Getalit AG owe Mr
Wenninger an exceptional debt of gratitude for his commitment and his
outstanding work, wishing him all the very best and lots of success both in
his career and in his personal life in the future.

The resulting vacancy on the Management Board has prompted the Supervisory
Board of Westag & Getalit AG to review the Management Board member
portfolios and responsibilities. The position of Management Board Spokesman
will not be filled again in this form; this role is to be taken over by Mr
Wilhelm Beckers as the Chairman of the Management Board. A newly
appointed CFO will be in charge of the Finance, Controlling, Human
Resources, Legal and IT Central Divisions portfolios. The purchasing,
technical services, central shipping and marketing communications units
will be overseen by Mr Beckers and Mr Franz David, who was appointed to the
Management Board effective March 1, 2015 and continues to serve as Head of
the Surfaces/Elements Division.
