Board of Directors
 
Being elected in June 6th, 2005 for a period of three years, Masisa’s present board of directors is a group of people in charge of the Company administration at the highest level, and represents the interests of all its shareholders, being this fact independent from the voters of the members themselves. It is composed of seven members elected at a shareholders’ meeting, five of whom have been elected by GrupoNueva (the President and Vice President included in this number) and two have been independently chosen by the minority shareholders, basically, by Chilean Retirement Pension Funds Administrators. Independent directors have, for Masisa, a very important role. They make up the absolute majority of the Committee of Directors which is a group of people in charge of exerting control and taking part in Audit and Compensations Committees. The General Manager of Masisa is appointed by the Directors
