Kodak President Antonio M. Perez Elected to Board of Directors

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Oct. 19 - Eastman Kodak Company announced
that its board of directors has elected Antonio M. Perez to
the company's board, effective today.
  Perez, who is Kodak's President and Chief Operating Officer,
joined the company on April 2, 2003. Since then, Perez has
worked with Daniel A. Carp, Kodak's Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer, to develop and implement the company's
digitally oriented growth strategy.
  "The election of Antonio Perez to the Kodak board recognizes
the many contributions he has made to the company's success in
the short time that he has been here," Carp said. "We look
forward to the insight, experience and intellectual depth that
Antonio will bring to the company's board at a momentous
period in Kodak's history."
  Perez, 58, joined Kodak after a 25-year career at Hewlett-
Packard Company, where he was a corporate vice president and a
member of the company's Executive Council. His tenure at HP
included serving as President of the Consumer Business, where
he spearheaded the company's efforts to build a business in
digital imaging and electronic publishing. Prior to that
assignment, he served as President and CEO of HP's inkjet
imaging business.
  Just prior to joining Kodak, Perez served as an independent
consultant for large investment firms, providing counsel on
the effect of technology shifts on financial markets. From
June 2000 to December 2001, he was President and Chief
Executive Officer of Gemplus International, where he led the
effort to take the company public both on the Premier Marche
in Paris and NASDAQ in December 2000.
  A native of Spain, Mr. Perez studied electronic engineering,
marketing and business in Spain and France.
