1) Proposal.

Dividend increases by 20%

The Board of Management will propose the payment of a dividend per share of €0.90 at the Annual General Meeting on 6 May 2008. This represents an increase of 20% compared with the previous year. The total dividend will therefore amount to €1,087 million. The payout ratio in relation to Deutsche Post AG’s net profit for the year will thus increase from 71.5% to 81.2%. In relation to the consolidated net profit attributable to Deutsche Post AG shareholders, it amounts to 78.2% (previous year: 47.1%). Based on the share price as at 31 December 2007, the net dividend yield is therefore 3.8%. The dividend will be disbursed on 7 May 2008 and, as in previous years, is tax-free for shareholders resident in Germany.
