Dividend Announcement

Dividend announcement
WKN 723610 / ISIN DE0007236101

The Annual Shareholders’ Meeting on January 26, 2010 resolved that the net income in the amount of €1,462,725,473.60 for the preceding fiscal year 2008/2009 shall be used to pay a dividend of €1.60 on each no-par value share entitled to receive a dividend. The amount attributable to the treasury stock held by the Company at the date of the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting will be carried forward.

The dividend is payable on January 27, 2010 after deduction of 25% withholding tax and a 5.5% solidarity surcharge on the withholding tax (totaling 26.375%) and, if applicable, church tax on the withholding tax. Payment of the dividend will be effected by the depository bank via Clearstream Banking AG.

With this tax deduction, the German individual income tax on the recipient’s income from capital is deemed to be satisfied. Notwithstanding the above, upon request of the tax payer, the dividend together with any other income from capital can be included in an income tax assessment, if this leads to a lower individual income tax.

The deduction of the withholding tax as well as the solidarity surcharge are not applicable to domestic shareholders who have submitted to their depositary bank either a so-called non-assessment certification (“Nichtveranlagungsbescheinigung”) or a so-called tax exemption form (“Freistellungsauftrag”) with sufficient exemption volume.

In the case of foreign shareholders, the withholding tax, including the solidarity surcharge, can be reduced via an application for refund, subject to the applicable double taxation treaty between the Federal Republic of Germany and the relevant country.

Berlin and Munich, January 2010
