Dividend announcement
(English translation of German publication in the Börsen-Zeitung)
ISIN DE0007236101

The Annual Shareholders’ Meeting of Siemens AG on January 27, 2009 resolved that the unappropriated net income of €1,462,725,473.60 for fiscal year 2007/2008 be used to pay a dividend of €1.60 on each no-par value share entitled to receive a dividend and that the amount attributable to the shares of stock of Siemens AG held in treasury by the Company at the date of the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting be carried forward.

The dividend is payable on January 28, 2009, after deduction of 25% withholding tax and a 5.5% solidarity surcharge on the withholding tax (totalling 26.375%) and, if applicable, church tax on the withholding tax, the latter to be withheld by the domestic depositary bank of the shareholder.

Payment of the dividend will be effected by your depository bank via Clearstream Banking AG.

With this tax deduction, the German individual income tax for income from capital is deemed to be satisfied (Introduction of the so-called flat rate tax (“Abgeltungssteuer”) as a result of the German Corporate Tax Reform Law 2008 (“Unternehmenssteuerreformgesetz 2008”), dated 14. August 2007). Notwithstanding the above, upon request, the Dividend can be included together with the remainder of the income from capital for the assessment of income taxes, insofar as these lead to a lower individual income tax (so-called “Günstigerprüfung”).

To claim a refund of the deducted withholding tax, including the solidarity surcharge, domestic shareholders must timely submit a non-taxation attestation (“Nichtveranlagungsbescheinigung”) or a sufficient non-deduction application (“Freistellungsauftrag”) to their depositary bank.
