Today, KfW and IKB Deutsche Industriebank Aktiengesellschaft signed the
commitment of KfW towards IKB announced in the notification dated 22 July
2008 pursuant to which KfW will subscribe for, or procure that a third
party subscribes for, such amount of shares issued under the capital
increase resolved by the general shareholders’ meeting of 27 March 2008
that IKB receives proceeds totalling € 1.25 billion. This commitment by KfW
is subject to the condition precedent that the European Commission reaches
a decision by 25 October 2008 that KfW’s participation in the capital
increase does either not constitute state aid or is approved as state aid.
A decision by the European Commission is expected in October 2008.

IKB will amend the prospectus for the rights offering dated 25 July 2008,
by publishing a supplement to the prospectus. The details of the
above-mentioned commitment by KfW are described in the supplement to the
prospectus. Shareholders who have made a declaration exercising
subscription rights before the publication of the supplement may rescind
this declaration within two business days after publication of the
supplement. The period in which the right to rescind such declarations may
be exercised will end after expiration of the subscription period.
