On May 22, 2015, the Board of Directors of Mettler-Toledo International Inc. (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Ms. Connie Harvey as a director of the Company, effective July 29, 2015, and determined Ms. Harvey qualifies as an “independent director” for purposes of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Harvey and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Harvey was selected as a director, and there are no transactions in which Ms. Harvey has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
