Bonn, Jan. 2, 2009:  Deutsche Post World Net Chief Financial Officer John
Allan (60) has decided to retire from full-time work at his own volition
after playing a crucial role in successfully solving the two major issues
of the past year: the sale of a stake in Deutsche Postbank AG and the exit
from the company’s unprofitable DHL U.S. Express domestic business.
Following his appointment as Group CFO in 2007 and the extension of his
contract in early 2008, Allan decided to make use of a contractual option
enabling him to end his current term of office prematurely on June 30,
2009.

The Supervisory Board will name a successor to Allan in due course. John
Allan will continue to fully perform his tasks on the Management Board of
Deutsche Post World Net until the end of June and serve as a senior advisor
to Chief Executive Officer Frank Appel afterwards.
