KHD appoints Daniel Uttelbach to the Management Board - Strengthening Sales
& Technology

Cologne, December 19, 2014 - Daniel Uttelbach (44) has been appointed to
the Management Board of KHD Humboldt Wedag International AG (KHD),
effective January 1, 2015. As Executive Vice President he will be in charge
of Sales & Technology for the Group.

Mr. Uttelbach holds a Master's Degree (Dipl.-Ing.) from the Technical
University of Dortmund.

Before his appointment to the Management Board, Daniel Uttelbach worked as
Vice President Sales & Technology. Prior to that he was Vice President
Account Management and has thus been leading KHD's global sales activities
for the last several years. His excellent understanding of the global
cement industry combined with a deep insight in proposal management have
been key success factors in winning major cement projects for the KHD
Group. In November 2013 Daniel Uttelbach also took over the global
responsibility for Research & Development, Product Management, Process
Technology and Engineering.

Mr. Uttelbach views the market's ever-increasing requirements for
cost-efficient and environmentally-friendly technical solutions as
opportunity for KHD. Understanding customer needs in the Research &
Development phase and enhancing existing products are a must for KHD's
future success. "Bringing Daniel Uttelbach into the Management Board
underlines KHD's commitment to regaining and securing its position as a
technology leader for the cement industry and emphasizes the significance
of Account Management. Technology and Sales are of utmost importance for
KHD and have to be represented in its Management Board. We are convinced
that Daniel will successfully lead KHD's activities for further improvement
in both functions" states Supervisory Board member Frank Zou.
