Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes
HOCHTIEF’s eligibility for inclusion in the respected
Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes was reaffirmed for
2009. We are the only German construction services
company to be incorporated in these indices. This rewards
our commitment to sustainability in the interests
of economy, ecology and social responsibility. In this
way, HOCHTIEF stock continues to appeal to investors
who structure their portfolios in compliance with strict
sustainability criteria. In addition, our Australian subsidiary
Leighton has been listed in the new Dow Jones
Sustainability Asia Pacific Index since March 2009.

It remains our goal to grant our stockholders an appro-
priate share in the Company’s earnings performance.
HOCHTIEF Aktiengesellschaft’s Executive Board and
Supervisory Board propose paying a dividend of EUR
1.50 per share (2008: EUR 1.40) for the 2009 fiscal
year. This means HOCHTIEF will have increased its
dividends by just under 14 percent a year since 2005.
This expresses our confidence in the future business
performance.
