Rogers Corp. Holds Annual Meeting of Stockholders

   ROGERS, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 2004--Rogers Corporation
(NYSE:ROG) held its annual meeting of stockholders today in Hartford,
CT.
   Stockholders voted to re-elect all of the nominees to the Board of
Directors. They are Leonard M. Baker, Walter E. Boomer, Edward L.
Diefenthal, Gregory B. Howey, Leonard R. Jaskol, Eileen S. Kraus,
William E. Mitchell, Robert G. Paul, and Robert D. Wachob.
   Recent changes to the Board include the addition of Mr. Wachob,
Rogers President and CEO, and the retirement of Harry H. Birkenruth
who has served Rogers for over 44 years, including his roles as
Director and President and CEO. He helped shape Rogers into the global
company it is today.
   Mr. Wachob opened management's discussion with a presentation,
covering Rogers' sales history and outlining key strategic elements
that will drive Rogers' future success. Strategies include focusing on
core segments of printed circuit materials and high performance foams,
primarily within the global communications and computer markets;
continuing funding of research and development for new products; and
utilizing Six Sigma among other tools for rapid and continuous
improvement in all areas.
   He stated, "Our foundation is our technology and we have a superb
R&D team, who continue to bring new products to market that fuel our
growth. In 2003, over 43% of our sales were from products introduced
to the market within the last five years."
   Mr. Wachob also remarked on the strong performance of Rogers'
stock price during 2003, noting how it has significantly outperformed
the indices.
