Chip machine maker ASML names Christophe Fouquet as new CEO

Chip machine maker ASML intends to appoint Christophe Fouquet as CEO
to succeed co-presidents Peter Wennink and Martin van den Brink. The
Veldhoven company will present Fouquet's appointment at the Annual
General Meeting of Shareholders on 24 April 2024, the day of
Wennink's and Van den Brink's retirement.

Fouquet is currently chief business officer at ASML, where he has
been working for 15 years. According to Nils Andersen, chairman of
the Supervisory Board, Fouquet is an "experienced leader with a deep
understanding of ASML's technology." The Supervisory Board considers
him an excellent candidate to take over from Wennink and Van den
Brink.

"I am very pleased that we have been able to secure such a strong
successor to lead ASML," Wennink said, also referring to Fouquet's
years of experience with the company. "We share the 'ASML DNA' of
collaboration and partnership. I will work closely with Christophe to
ensure he has the best possible start in his new position."

Van den Brink also described Fouquet as a great candidate to take
over from him and Wennink. "My collaboration with Christophe has been
very close and fruitful for many years, and I am proud that ASML has
been able to grow a technologist like Christophe into the CEO
position. I am happy he will lead our technology organization and
place it at the heart of ASML's future."

Fouquet said he was "excited and honored" to take on the position of
CEO. "We have a clear strategy and a great team, and I look forward
to building on this solid foundation in the coming years."

ASML also announced its intention to appoint Jim Koonmen as Chief
Customer Officer, a new position in ASML's board. According to the
company, the new position "underscores ASML's ambition to
continuously increase our responsiveness to customer needs and to
consistently deliver high-performance products and services."

Koonmen's appointment is also subject to notification of the Annual
General Meeting of Shareholders in April next year.
