The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSS MicroTec AG Decides Presently Against Sale of Test Systems Division Munich, Germany, August 14, 2008. SUSS MicroTec AG (business address: Schleissheimer Strasse 90, 85748 Garching; ISIN: DE0007226706), which is listed in the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, announce today that the company continues to hold the Test Systems division to its Group. After the Munich-based Company severed ties to its non-core Device Bonder division last year, the Management Board of SUSS MicroTec AG systematically examined strategic options for a possible separation from its Test Systems division. Despite the prevailing difficult investment climate, the Management Board engaged in a comprehensive selling process during the last few weeks. However, a review of the bids submitted subsequently by interested parties has led the Management Board and the Supervisory Board of SUSS MicroTec AG to decide presently against the sale of the Test Systems division located in Dresden.
