Wachovia Trust Company, National Association (formerly known as First Union Trust Company, National Association), an indirect subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation, not in its individual capacity but solely as trustee (the "Trustee"), holds 136,292,363 shares of Infineon Technologies AG ("Infineon") in trust (the "Trust Shares") pursuant to an Irrevocable Trust Agreement dated December 5, 2001 (the "Agreement") by and between Siemens Aktiengesellschaft ("Siemens") and the Trustee. While the Agreement provides that the Trustee has the exclusive and absolute power to vote the Trust Shares, it also provides that the Trustee shall refrain from voting the Trust Shares.
Also under the Agreement, the Trustee has no authority to sell or otherwise dispose of, or to pledge, encumber or hypothecate, any of the Trust Shares, except upon the written direction of Siemens; provided, however, that Siemens shall not direct the Trustee to sell any of the Trust Shares to Siemens, any affiliate of Siemens, any vehicle established by Siemens or any of its affiliates or to Infineon. The proceeds of any such disposition directed by Siemens shall be distributed forthwith to Siemens.
In addition, under the Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer or cause to be transferred to Siemens any and all proceeds it receives from or in connection with its position as Trustee. The Trustee shall, in particular, distribute or cause to be distributed to Siemens upon receipt all cash distributions or dividends received upon the Trust Shares and, except as provided below, all other proceeds, earnings, capital stock or other securities.
If at any time during the term of the Agreement, the Trustee shall receive, as a dividend or other distribution upon any Trust Shares, any shares of capital stock or other securities of Infineon, the Trustee shall hold the capital stock or such securities, which shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement to the same extent as if originally deposited thereunder, unless such capital stock or other securities have no current or potential voting rights in which case they shall be transferred without delay to Siemens.
If at any time during the term of the Agreement the Trustee shall receive or collect any monies through a distribution by Infineon to its shareholders, other than in payment of cash dividends, or shall receive any other property in respect of the Trust Shares, other than shares of capital stock or other securities of Infineon, through a distribution by Infineon to its shareholders, the Trustee shall distribute the same to Siemens. If the property is common stock issued in exchange for the Trust Shares in connection with the merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of Infineon, such common stock shall be held by the Trustee as Trust Shares; provided, however, that such common stock shall be distributed to Siemens if either (i) Siemens and its affiliates own, directly and indirectly, including such common stock held in Trust, if any, and such common stock issued in exchange for the Trust Shares, less than 50% of such outstanding common stock or (ii) such common stock has no voting rights. Siemens shall notify the Trustee in writing when the condition set forth in (i) above has been satisfied.
