NCR Corporation (NYSE:NCR) today announced the expected board of directors for Teradata Corporation, the independent company that will be created through the strategic separation of NCR’s data warehousing business. These directors are expected to assume their new responsibilities in connection with the completion of the spin-off transaction, which is anticipated to occur by the end of the third calendar quarter of 2007, subject to customary conditions, including receipt of a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service and final approval by NCR’s board of directors. James Ringler, current chairman of the NCR board of directors, will serve as chairman of the Teradata board. In addition to his role at NCR, Ringler serves on the boards of directors of The Dow Chemical Company, FMC Technologies, Autoliv and Corn Products International, and previously served as vice chairman of Illinois Tool Works Inc. and as chairman and chief executive officer of Premark International.

Prahalad, the Harvey Freuhauf Professor of Business Administration at the University of Michigan and a specialist in corporate strategy and the role of top management in large, diversified, multinational companies; and Pete Boykin, former president and chief operating officer of Computer Sciences Corporation. In addition, Mike Koehler, who currently leads the Teradata division of NCR, will be a member of the Teradata board. Koehler is expected to become CEO once the spin off is complete. "The strategic guidance, expertise and continuity of leadership these individuals provide will serve Teradata well as it becomes a public company,” said Ringler. "While Bill Stavropoulos, Vic Lund and I will be leaving the NCR board, C.K. Prahalad and Pete Boykin will continue to serve on NCR’s board in addition to joining the Teradata board. Additional NCR and Teradata directors are expected to be appointed in the future to address the specific needs of each company,” Ringler added.
