Solsvig III announced that he would not stand for re-election as a director of Material Sciences Corporation (“MSC”) at the next annual meeting of the MSC shareowners, which will be held on June 27, 2007 due to Mr. Solsvig joining a company which has a policy that does not allow him to serve on any board. Mr. Solsvig’s decision not to stand for re-election is not a result of any disagreement with MSC.
