BANCOLOMBIA
S.A. CLARIFIES INFORMATION PUBLISHED IN MEDIA OUTLETS
Medellin,
Colombia, July 29, 2010
Bancolombia
S.A. (Bancolombia) announces certain clarifications to information published
today in certain Colombian media outlets relating to the resignation of the
President of Bancolombia, Mr. Jorge Londono Saldarriaga. The President and Vice-
President of Bancolombia’s Board of Directors note the following:
|
1)
|
Management
successions are a natural process in the life of corporations, the
importance of which is duly reflected in Bancolombia’s Code of Corporate
Governance.
|
|
2)
|
Several
months ago, Mr. Jorge Londoño informally expressed his desire to retire as
President of Bancolombia in the medium term so that the appropriate
actions could be initiated to ensure a smooth and organized
transition.
|
|
3)
|
Mr.
Jorge Londoño has not formally announced his intention to retire to the
Board of Directors of Bancolombia and has certainly not set a date for
retirement. As a result, he remains the President of Bancolombia until
such time as the development of a succession plan is completed in
accordance with his request, which in any case will not be this
year.
|
|
4)
|
The
undersigned recognizes with satisfaction that the preparation of a
succession plan for the presidency of Bancolombia has been initiated at a
time when the Bank has distinguished itself by its good performance,
leadership and capital strength and is enjoying widespread recognition in
the national and international
markets.
