development," said Jim Hagemann Snabe. Snabe himself was reelected Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Siemens AG at its constituent meeting immediately following the Annual Shareholders' Meeting.

The elections were necessary because the appointments of

Dr. Nicola Leibinger-Kammüller (61), Werner Wenning (74) and Jim Hagemann Snabe had officially expired.

The conclusion of the Annual Shareholders' Meeting also marked the successful completion of Siemens AG's long-planned leadership succession process. Roland Busch assumed the position of President and CEO at the same time. Joe Kaeser will stand for reelection to Siemens Energy AG's Supervisory Board at its Annual Shareholders' Meeting on February 10, 2021, and for reelection as the Supervisory Board's Chairman at the Board's constituent meeting immediately afterwards.

"The smooth transition from Joe Kaeser to Roland Busch as the new President and CEO is the result of farsighted planning combined with close, trust-based collaboration on the part of all involved," added Snabe. "It has enabled us to successfully lay the basis for immediately continuing - and even accelerating - Siemens' transformation."

"On behalf of the Supervisory Board and all Siemens employees, I'd like to thank Joe Kaeser for his dedication to the company, for his more than 40 years of tireless commitment, for his life's work!" continued Snabe. "At the same time, Roland Busch is the ideal choice to further drive the transformation of Siemens AG. In this effort, the merging of the virtual and real worlds will play a key role. The aim now is to renew the technological backbone of the economy and society."

Shareholders approved the distribution of a dividend of €3.50 per share for fiscal 2020 as proposed by the Managing and Supervisory Boards. Adjusted by ten percent to account for the market value of the spin-off of Siemens Energy, this amount represents a dividend at the same level as the €3.90 distributed for fiscal 2019.
