News Release Presseinformation
Qimonda Welcomes Announcement of Infineon Sale of Qimonda Shares
Munich, September 11, 2007 Qimonda AG (NYSE QI) welcomed the announcement today by Infineon
Technologies AG (FSE/NYSE: IFX) to offer American Depositary Shares (ADSs) to reduce its equity
interest in Qimonda.
As mentioned in the Infineon announcement, Qimonda today filed a registration statement with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including a prospectus supplement relating to a proposed
secondary offering of 25 million American Depositary Shares (ADS), plus an additional
over-allotment option of up to 3.75 million ADS. Assuming that the sale proceeds as planned,
Infineons interest in Qimonda would be reduced to 78.6 percent. Furthermore, if the greenshoe
option is exercised in full, Infineons interest in Qimonda would be further reduced to 77.5
percent. Each ADS represents one ordinary share of Qimonda.
Additionally, Infineon announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Infineon Technologies Investment
B.V. intends to offer exchangeable notes to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in reliance
on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. If the maximum amount of exchangeable notes is
issued and later exchanged for Qimonda shares, Qimondas free float would increase by a further 5
percent.
Concurrently with these transactions, Infineon intends to lend an affiliate of U.S. investment bank
JP Morgan Securities, up to 10 million Qimonda ADSs alongside its placement of the exchangeable
bond.
Qimonda will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the securities sold or loaned by Infineon.
