FUCHS PETROLUB launches share buyback program and plans to issue bonus shares (capital increase from corporate funds)

The Executive Board at FUCHS PETROLUB SE today passed a resolution, exercising the authorization issued by the Annual General Meeting on May 5, 2010, to acquire a maximum of one million ordinary and one million preference shares in the company for a total purchase price of up to EUR 100 million.

Furthermore, the Executive Board intends to propose a capital increase from corporate funds to the Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2014. This capital increase would involve issuing bonus shares at a ratio of 1:1.
The share buyback and the proposal to issue bonus shares are an expression of the Executive Board's confidence in the future economic development of the FUCHS Group. This should also result in an increased trading liquidity of the FUCHS shares.

FUCHS PETROLUB will commence the buyback of its own shares on November 27, 2013 and complete the buyback process by March 31, 2015.
The shares will be acquired for the purpose of redemption based on the authorization resolution of the Annual General Meeting from May 5, 2010.
The shares are to be acquired in XETRA trading. The buyback will take place in compliance with EC Council Regulation No. 2273/2003 in the version dated December 22, 2003.
