The Board of Directors of Getinge AB has decided to replace the President & CEO
of the Getinge Group, which means that Getinges’ President & CEO Alex Myers is
leaving his position. The Board of Directors has appointed Joacim Lindoff as
Acting President & CEO. Joacim is currently President of Getinge Surgical
Workflows and a member of the Executive Team. The change will be effective as of
today.

”The Board of Directors and Alex Myers have different views on the future
direction of the Getinge Group and the board has therefore concluded that a
replacement of the President & CEO is necessary, says Carl Bennet, Getinge’s
Chairman of the Board.

Joacim Lindoff has been with Getinge since 1999 and has experience from
different senior leading positions within the Group. Joacim recently served as
