Dear Sir,
Change in the Board of Directors of ICICI Bank Limited
We have to inform you that Mr. S.B. Mathur (the then Chairman of Life Insurance Corporation of India) who was appointed on the Board of ICICI Bank on January 29, 2004, has resigned from the Board of ICICI Bank effective March 4, 2005, consequent upon his retirement from LIC. The letter of resignation dated March 4, 2005 was received by ICICI Bank on March 15, 2005.
In view of the above, the total strength of the Board of ICICI Bank has thus reduced from 17 to 16 members, comprising of 11 non-executive Directors and 5 executive Directors.
Yours faithfully,
