New Supervisory Board Chairperson Elected For The Stuttgart Stock Exchange - Thomas Munz Is The New Supervisory Board Chairperson At The Stuttgart Stock Exchange, Dr Michael Völter Elected As Deputy Chairperson

Date 27/07/2010

Following the reshuffle of the Supervisory Board members at the Stuttgart Stock Exchange, a new chairperson has now been elected to head the various Supervisory Boards: Thomas Munz, Chairperson of the association Vereinigung Baden-Wuerttembergische Wertpapierboerse e.V., has been unanimously elected as the Chairperson of the Supervisory Boards of Boerse Stuttgart Holding GmbH, Boerse Stuttgart AG and Euwax AG. Dr Michael Völter, Member of the Management Board of SV Sparkassen Versicherung Holding AG, has been elected as Deputy Chairperson of the boards. Further Supervisory Board members besides Thomas Munz and Dr Michael Völter are Horst Marschall, Dr Manfred Pumbo and Hans-Joachim Strüder.

Since he started out as a stock exchange trader in 1979, Thomas Munz has served in various functions at the Stuttgart Stock Exchange. These include heading the Chamber of Official Exchange Brokers, Kursmaklerkammer, at Baden-Wuerttembergische Wertpapierboerse, membership of the Exchange Council and the function of Chairperson of the Management Board at EUWAX AG. Thomas Munz has also been member of the Supervisory Boards of the three stock exchange companies for many years. He was appointed to the position of Member of the Board of Management of the association Vereinigung Baden-Wuerttembergische Wertpapierboerse e.V. in May 2003.

The appointment of Thomas Munz to this position continues the stringency with which such appointments are made at the Stuttgart Stock Exchange. Due to his many years as Member of the Board of Management of the association Vereinigung Baden-Wuerttembergische Wertpapierboerse e.V, which is the owner of the stock exchange, it was only natural that the Supervisory Board members would choose Thomas Munz to head the Supervisory Boards of all major companies.
