AT&T Announces Changes to its Board of Directors
BEDMINSTER, N.J. - AT&T today announced the election of William F. Aldinger, III
to its board of directors and the resignation of Amos B. Hostetter, Jr. from the

Aldinger, 56, is Chairman and CEO of Household International, a subsidiary of
HSBC Holdings plc, one of the world's largest financial services companies.
Aldinger joined Household as president and chief executive officer in 1994. He
graduated from The Baruch School of City College of New York in 1969, and the
Brooklyn Law School, where he received his law degree in 1975. He is a member of
the New York Bar.
Aldinger serves on the boards of directors of Mastercard International, Illinois

Aldinger is a member of the board of directors of Evanston Northwestern

"Bill brings a wealth of business experience and insight to the AT&T board, and
we're pleased that he's joining us at this time," said AT&T Chairman and CEO
David W. Dorman.
Hostetter decided to resign for personal reasons, AT&T said. "I'd like to thank
Amos for his contributions to the board since joining it in 1999. His insight
and expertise were invaluable in guiding us though a major restructuring of the
company," Dorman said.
With the addition of Aldinger and the departure of Hostetter, the AT&T board
remains at nine members.
