On 14 May 2024, the Annual General Meeting of Deutsche Börse Aktiengesellschaft decided to use the unappropriated surplus for the financial year 2023 of

EUR 1,060,000,000.00 to distribute an amount of EUR 697,765,777.40, i.e. a dividend of EUR 3.80 for each no-par value share carrying dividend rights, and to allocate an amount of EUR 362,234,222.60 to "other retained earnings".

The full text of the resolution can be found in the adjusted version of the proposed resolution on agenda item 2 of the notice of the Annual General Meeting published on the Company's website and as announced at the Annual General Meeting on 14 May 2024.

The dividend will be paid by Clearstream Banking Aktiengesellschaft, via the custodian banks, from 17 May 2024. Commerzbank AG, Frankfurt/Main, will act as central paying agent.

For shares which are held in custody in Germany, the dividend will be paid net after a

25 percent deduction for capital gains tax, a 5.5 percent deduction for the solidarity surcharge and, if applicable, a deduction for church tax on capital gains tax by the German custodian bank. Withholdings are operated by the German custodian bank. If the shares are held in custody with a bank or an intermediate depository outside Germany, the withholding of capital gains tax plus solidarity surcharge (total deduction 26.375 percent) is made by the last domestic bank which is generally Clearstream Banking Aktiengesellschaft.

For domestic shareholders, the payment of the dividend will be made without deduction of

capital gains tax, solidarity surcharge and, if applicable, church tax if they have submitted a non-assessment certificate (Nichtveranlagungsbescheinigung) from the competent tax

office to their German custodian bank. The same applies, fully or partly, to shareholders who have submitted an exemption application (Freistellungsauftrag) to their German

custodian bank, to the extent the exemption volume stated in this application has not yet been exhausted by other earnings from capital investments.

For private capital gains of domestic shareholders, the German income tax is deemed to have been paid with the deduction of tax. Application may be made to have the dividend assessed together with other capital gains if this is likely to lead to a lower individual income tax burden.

In the case of foreign shareholders, the withheld capital gains tax, including the solidarity surcharge, may be reduced in accordance with the provisions of the existing agreements to avoid double taxation concluded between the Federal Republic of Germany and the relevant country. Applications must be submitted to the Federal Central Tax Office as the competent authority.
