Information to be included in the report

 
Item 5.02.    Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers
 
Following a meeting of the Board of Directors of Cambridge Display Technology, Inc., which took place on October 25, 2006, the Board elected Thomas Rosencrants, 57, as a Director of the Company with effect from November 2, 2006.

Mr. Rosencrants was also appointed to serve as a member of the Compensation Committee and as chairman of the Audit Committee of the Board.

Mr. Rosencrants is currently chairman and chief executive officer for Greystone Capital Group, LLC, a position he has held since April 1997 since founding the private equity partnership in 1997. Mr. Rosencrants also serves as director for certain portfolio companies, including the publicly traded CompuCredit Corporation (NasdaqGS: CCRT). Mr. Rosencrants has been a director of this Atlanta-based credit card company since 1999, and he also serves on its compensation committee and chairs its audit committee.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Rosencrants and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Rosencrants was elected as a director. There are no transactions under item 404(a) of Regulation S-K under which Mr. Rosencrants had or will have a material interest.

Mr. James Sandry resigned from the Board with immediate effect, having already resigned from the Audit Committee on August 14, 2006. As a result of Mr. Sandry's resignation from the Audit Committee, the Company did not comply with the listing standards of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(d)(2)(A), which requires that the Company's Audit Committee be comprised of at least three members. Following the appointment of Mr. Rosencrants as chairman of the Audit Committee, the Company believes it has cured such noncompliance.
