Please be advised that, effective April 6, 2010, Prof. Rivka Carmi, MD, who joined Teva's Board of Directors in November 2009, resigned from the Board. Prof. Carmi requested to be relieved of her service to the Board due to  the many other responsibilities arising from her position as the President of Ben-Gurion University, which would not  allow her on a going forward basis to properly fulfill her duties as a Teva director. Dr. Phillip Frost, Teva's Chairman of the Board, has accepted Dr. Carmi's resignation and wished her much luck in her future endeavors.
