MAN SE / Legal Matter 10.12.2009 Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted by DGAP - a company of EquityStory AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. The investigations of suspected corruption against various MAN Group companies have been concluded. The public prosecution authorities at Munich District Court I imposed a fine of EUR75.3 million on MAN Nutzfahrzeuge AG in their notice of decision today. Munich District Court I also ruled a fine of EUR75.3 million on MAN Turbo AG today. Both the companies concerned have acquiesced in the decisions. This brings to an end the investigations against the companies of the MAN Group on suspicion of imputed corruption between 2002 to 2009. This does not affect the preliminary investigations against individuals. The agreement to fines and conclusion of the investigations became possible because the Executive Board and Supervisory Board took extensive measures to clarify the matter within the company, working closely with the public prosecution authorities.
