Mr. Joseph D. Swann, who is one of nine current directors of KEMET Corporation (the “Company”), informed the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on May 11, 2013 that he does not plan to stand for re-election at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), which is scheduled to occur on July 25, 2013.  As a result, the Board has elected to reduce the size of the Company’s Board from nine to eight directors, effective immediately following the Annual Meeting.  Mr. Swann’s decision not to stand for re-election is not the result of any disagreement with the Company, and he will continue to serve as a director through the Annual Meeting.
