Press Release dated March 28, 2008 relating to 'mini-tender offer'
for ADS:
Siemens AG announced today that it has been notified of an unsolicited
'mini-tender offer' made by TRC Capital Corporation, a private Canadian
company, to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,000,000 American Depositary
Shares (ADS) (approximately 0.1% of the outstanding ordinary shares) of
Siemens AG at a price of US$122.00 per ADS.
Siemens AG is not in any way associated with TRC or with the 'mini-tender
offer' or the related offer materials. We express no opinion and remain
neutral with respect to this mini-tender offer. We urge shareholders to
consult their financial advisors, obtain current market quotes for their
securities, make informed investment decisions and exercise caution in
connection with this unsolicited offer. Since mini-tender offers do not
provide the same disclosure and procedural protection of larger, more
traditional tender offers, we encourage shareholders to review the advisory
statement of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(http://sec.gov/investor/pubs/minitend.htm) and the Information Memo Number
01-27 issued by the New York Stock Exchange on Sept. 28, 2001, regarding
the dissemination of mini-tender offer materials, which can be found under
the 'Market Professional - Information Memos' tab on the NYSE's website at
www.nyse.com.
Siemens AG (Berlin and Munich) is a global powerhouse in electronics and
electrical engineering, operating in the industry, energy and healthcare
sectors. The company has around 400,000 employees (in continuing
operations) working to develop and manufacture products, design and install
complex systems and projects, and tailor a wide range of solutions for
