N.V. (Euronext Amsterdam: ASM) today announces that the information
regarding the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM)
scheduled for May 28, 2018, is now available on the Company's
website, www.asm.com. This information
includes the convocation, the full agenda and annexes thereto. The
U.S. market proxy materials for holders of New York Registry Shares

The AGM is scheduled to commence
at 2:00 p.m. CET at the Hilton Hotel, Apollolaan 138, Amsterdam,
the Netherlands.
In accordance with applicable
legal requirements in the Netherlands the record date for the AGM
is April 30, 2018, as further set out in the convocation for the
meeting.
The agenda for the AGM includes
amongst others the proposal to pay a dividend in cash of € 0.80
(eighty Euro cents) per common share, the nomination of Mr. C.D.
del Prado and Mr. P.A.M. van Bommel for reappointment to the
Management Board, the nomination of Mr. M.C.J. van Pernis for
reappointment to the Supervisory Board for a period of two years,
and the nomination of Mr. M.J.C. de Jong for appointment to the
Supervisory Board. In addition, the agenda includes a proposal to
adjust the remuneration of the members of the Supervisory Board,
and the withdrawal of 6,000,000 treasury shares.
Furthermore, the Company proposes
to the AGM to distribute € 4.00 (four Euro) per common share from
the cash proceeds of the placement of the Company's 37,000,000
common shares of ASM Pacific Technology Ltd. To do this in a tax
efficient manner, it is proposed that the distribution is effected
as a repayment of capital to the shareholders by way of a reduction
of the par value of the common shares. For that purpose, it is
proposed to first increase the issued capital of the Company by
increasing the par value of all common shares by amending Article 3
of the Articles of Association and subsequently, after the
mandatory procedure has been followed, to decrease the issued
capital of the Company by decreasing the par value of all common
shares - with the same amount as the increase - by amending Article
3 of the Articles of Association.
