International Rectifier Announces
the Retirement of Founder and Chairman Eric Lidow

 

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—April XX, 2008—International
Rectifier Corporation (NYSE:IRF) today announced that the Company’s Founder and
Chairman, Eric Lidow, will retire from his position as Chairman and as a member
of the Board of Directors effective on May 1, 2008.  Mr. Lidow had served as the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer until 1995, after which time he assumed the position of Chairman.

 

Mr. Lidow founded International Rectifier in 1947. Over the course
of more than six decades, Mr. Lidow transformed a start-up company that
developed selenium photoelectric cells and selenium rectifiers into a world
leader in power management technology that today produces thousands of innovative
analog, digital, and mixed signal integrated circuits and other advanced power
management technologies and products.

 

Speaking on behalf of the Board of Directors, President and Chief
Executive Officer Oleg Khaykin said, “Eric is one of the most respected
pioneers in the power semiconductor industry. 
His long-standing commitment to the employees and customers of
International Rectifier has been crucial to our progress over the decades. As
we continue to grow as a Company, the legacy of Eric’s leadership during his 60
years at IR will remain.”

 

“The development and growth of International Rectifier has been a great
source of pride to me,” said Eric Lidow, Founder and Chairman  of
International Rectifier. “While I am passionate about the technology, people
are the vital ingredient.  As the power
management industry continues to evolve, I have great confidence in the Company’s
technology roadmap and in the management team’s ability to execute the strategy
established to take the Company forward.”
