Munich, April 9, 2013 - Today, the Supervisory Board of MTU Aero Engines

succeeds Egon Behle (57), who is no longer available for a contract
extension.
Behle explained: 'After six years as CEO of MTU Aero Engines, I do not want
to extend my contract again, but like to attend to other tasks with regards
to my personal life planning. Since the market position of MTU has been
clearly strengthened over the past years and a sustainable growth path has
been secured, this offers now the opportunity to realign the Board of
Management and to build up a younger team.'
The Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Klaus Eberhardt, said: 'The
Supervisory Board regrets that Egon Behle, for personal reasons, is no
longer available for another period of office as CEO. We have to respect
his decision. With his long-standing experience, Reiner Winkler secures the
continuity in the leadership of MTU.'
In his new position as CEO, Reiner Winkler will keep his current role as
Chief Financial Officer and take on additional central functions. Winkler
said: 'I am very pleased about the confidence expressed by the Supervisory
Board and the possibility to continue the success story of MTU, together
with my colleagues in the Board of Management.'
Michael Schreyoegg (46), will be newly appointed to the Board of
Management, effective July 1, 2013. Currently, he is responsible for the
military programs of MTU. In his new function, he will be responsible for
the commercial and military OEM programs.
