ÿ Shareholder structure<br />
The share capital of <strong>ELMOS</strong> <strong>Semiconductor</strong> <strong>AG</strong> contains an unchanged 19,300,000<br />
non-par value shares. 57.7 percent (about 11.1 million) of these shares are held by<br />
<strong>ELMOS</strong> Finanzholding GmbH (EFH), constituting the solid <strong>ELMOS</strong> shareholder basis.<br />
EFH is owned by Knut Hinrichs, Dr. Klaus Weyer, and Prof. Dr. Günter Zimmer. The<br />
remaining 42.3 percent (8.2 million) of the shares are free float. They are owned by a<br />
broad basis of institutional and private investors both domestic and abroad.<br />
German shareholders own about 14 percent of the free float, investors in the English-<br />
speaking countries hold about 19 percent. Remaining continental Europe is repre-<br />
sented by roughly nine percent of the free-floating shares. The regional distribution<br />
of attributable free float thereby indicates a shift from Great Britain to Germany if<br />
compared to the previous year. The structure of the other regions has hardly changed<br />
in comparison with the year before.<br />
Apart from EFH, no shareholder holds more than five percent of the <strong>ELMOS</strong> share<br />
capital; the ten largest shareholders together (not counting EFH) own roughly 28<br />
percent of the free-float.<br />
