Luxembourg/Koblenz, May 12, 2015 - Stabilus S.A. (Stabilus, ISIN:

and hydraulic dampers, is announcing a change of personnel in its
supervisory board: Dr. Joachim Rauhut will replace Andi Klein as a member
of the Stabilus S.A. supervisory board and the chairman of its audit

Andi Klein, Investment Partner at private equity investment firm Triton and
responsible for Triton's participation in Stabilus from 2010 to 2015,
joined the Stabilus advisory board in 2010, following the majority

he was appointed as a member of the supervisory board of Stabilus S.A.
Stabilus wishes to thank Mr. Klein for his outstanding contribution to the
success of Stabilus.
With the appointment of Dr. Joachim Rauhut (61), a member of the executive
board of Wacker Chemie AG, Stabilus gains a proven industry and capital
markets expert for its supervisory board. He joined the management board of
Wacker-Chemie GmbH in 2001 and supported Wacker Chemie's initial public
offering in 2006. Previously, he had been serving in various leading
corporate positions, including posts at Mannesmann AG and Krauss-Maffei AG.
Dr. Rauhut completed his studies with a degree in industrial engineering
and a doctorate in engineering.
Apart from Dr. Rauhut's appointment, the composition of the supervisory
board - with chairman Udo Stark, deputy chairman Dr. Stephan Kessel as well
as Nizar Ghoussaini - remains unchanged.
