AIXTRON SE worldwide leading provider of deposition equipment to the semiconductor industry, has a number of stock option programs in place that grant the members of the Executive Board and employees the right to purchase AIXTRON shares under certain conditions.
Under the terms of the stock option plan 2007, stock options can currently be exercised. New shares resulting from exercised options are not entitled for dividend for fiscal year 2010 and will therefore be traded on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the separate ISIN DE000A1H30A0 until and including the day of the AGM 2011 on May 19, 2011.
