(Nasdaq: AHPI) announced today that Brent D. Baird has been named to its board of directors and John D. Weil has been named its new chairman. Both of these moves were made due to the untimely death late last month of Dennis W. Sheehan, a long-time board member and chairman of Allied's board. Baird, 60, a private investor living in Buffalo, N.Y., is chairman of First Carolina Investors, Inc., a closed-end investment company based in Charlotte, N.C. He also serves on the boards of several public companies, including M&T Bank Corp.(NYSE: MTB) and Todd Shipyards Corp.(NYSE: TOD). Weil, 58, has been an Allied board member since August 1997 and is a major shareholder of the corporation. "We will miss the participation and guidance that Dennis Sheehan provided as a member of Allied's board, which he joined while the company was still private and had served on continuously since the company went public in 1992," said Weil. "However, we are pleased to welcome Brent Baird to the board. His extensive financial, investment and corporate board experience should Be beneficial as Allied continues its progress toward restoring profitability." Allied Healthcare Products, Inc. is a leading manufacturer of respiratory care products, medical gas equipment and emergency medical products used in a wide range of hospital and alternate care settings. page 5 of 5 -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
