Siemens AG will accrue a provision in the amount of approx. EUR 1 billion in fiscal 2008 in connection with the
settlement being sought by the company with authorities in Germany and the United States. This current estimate is based
on the status of ongoing discussions being held between the company and authorities in Germany and the U.S. The company
will make no further comments on the ongoing proceedings.
    Information and Explaination of the Issuer to this News:
    Disclaimer This document contains forward-looking statements and information � that is, statements related to
future, not past, events. These statements may be identified by words such as 'expects,' 'looks forward to,'
'anticipates,' 'intends,' 'plans,' 'believes,' 'seeks,' 'estimates,' 'will,' 'project' or words of similar meaning. Such
statements are based on our current expectations and certain assumptions, and are, therefore, subject to certain risks
and uncertainties. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond Siemens� control, affect our operations, performance,
business strategy and results and could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Siemens to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. For us, particular uncertainties arise, among others, from changes in general economic and
business conditions (including margin developments in major business areas); the challenges of integrating major
acquisitions and implementing joint ventures and other significant portfolio measures; changes in currency exchange
rates and interest rates; introduction of competing products or technologies by other companies; lack of acceptance of
new products or services by customers targeted by Siemens; changes in business strategy; the outcome of pending
investigations and legal proceedings, especially the corruption investigation we are currently subject to in Germany,
the United States and elsewhere; the potential impact of such investigations and proceedings on our ongoing business
including our relationships with governments and other customers; the potential impact of such matters on our financial
statements; as well as various other factors. More detailed information about certain of these factors is contained
throughout this report and in our other filings with the SEC, which are available on the Siemens website,
www.siemens.com, and on the SEC's website, www.sec.gov. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize,
or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the
relevant forward-looking statement as expected, anticipated, intended, planned, believed, sought, estimated or
projected. Siemens does not intend or assume any obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements in
light of developments which differ from those anticipated.
